Got insanely lucky right after launch and found myself a boat and enough food to make a voyage to the southernmost island within 4 hours. Deadliest part was actually the visibility dropping due to a sudden blizzard while on the open water and not being able to see the closest island. Definitely gonna follow the advice of not straying to far from the coast/ice sheets when traveling.

The play here, is it invites people to be more likely to team up instead of kill on sight as the repercussions are no good for survival (ruined gear) when you start out. For example it's not worth killing someone for their loot early on as the risk of having their gear damaged is a huge loss to you instead of teaming up and looking for warm gear. However the saying still stands: No mic, No life.

My first three sakhal lives all started with a cold before I even started walking. Legitimately liking the struggle bus tho :)

I would love to see a video about all the loot economy changes in 1.26. I don’t think a lot of people know, and I think people won’t like the changes! Such as no more m70 tundra and ak47s on Livonia or many guns being moved to higher tier loot areas. I think this issue needs some recognition, so that more players can make their opinions known to the devs and hopefully they will make this “Regional Loot Economy” a little less intense

FYI. I've liked every wobo video since I subbed just over 5 years ago.

Hot tip - cars have neutral heat zones. If you are stuck in a snowstorm and no shelter but you see a useable car - sit in it. You will not lose temperature and you can sit out the storm!

Played the map for the first time last night. Theres an aweful lot of short sleeve tshirts in the loot table for a winter island :/

The background Mass Effect music just makes me happy 😊

My first life on Sakhal has been a wild one. Alot of interesting people. And i havent evem gotten sick once in the 12 hours i just played. I just kept refueling my torch every time i found clothes to make rags. And upgrading it every time i found fat. Which was ALOT because so many dead players everywhere lmao started mid east coast, went all the way around to the north and then south west to the military islands which is where i logged off at

We need more official servers. 35 man queues are unacceptable. Leave a like so the see this and repost on every Dayz YouTubers vids! We didn’t pay this money to join a queue!

The perfect video as I wait here in the queue for my first life in Sakhal!

So excited to get home from work and pop my first sakhal run.

Im happy we can actually "cook" canned beans now

[slimmmbabyj]

On my 3rd character I’m finally starting to get the hang of things on this map, Sakhal is no joke lmao

[cosmo]

Will you be doing a video on the lore with frostline? Any secrets? etc..

[WoodyTimes]

Best part of the illnesses in the game is I’m studying for same ones 😂

[KombatKrab]

I will have to wait to play this map. Looks fantastic.

Chernaris: See you on the beach.
Livonia: See you by the river.
Sarkel: ?

See you there this evening fellas.

Map was alot easier than i thought it would be. It went against my norm of packing light and keeping high stam since i needed to put on heavy clothes, but other than that i only had to eat wolf meat once and i didnt get sick off 4pc's. Bunker was interesting, i just cant wait for whatever they do with nbc gear.
