Towns and Cities

DayZ takes place on the ARMA II map Chernarus.

A town is a major source of basic necessities such as food, water, and common ammunition. These abandoned communities can be found in every sector of Chernarus, and may vary in size and distance from one another. Small towns usually have fewer than ten lootable areas and contain almost no decent loot (Bor, Olsha) while larger towns have a lot more to choose from (Novy Sobor, Balota). The larger the town, the bigger the zombie population.... and player interest.

A city, such as Zelenogorsk and Chernogorsk, contains special locations of interest such as a supermarket, hospital, military tents, and more. As such, these forgotten utopias are the most high-trafficked areas in the game. New players may spawn in close proximity to coastal cities and venture there, sometimes to their ultimate demise. The rewards are very worthwhile if you can avoid hostile bandits and a horde of zombies. Remember: when traveling through a city, be very cautious of your surroundings.
