How can people support your content or contact you if they want a screenshot of their own? My hope is to continue doing this for as long as possible, because it’s what the community deserves! Being able to mix my ideas and creative works with other community members stories, characters and events has been a task to make sure everyone is represented in the best light possible, but amazing nonetheless. It’s probably been the most fun about being apart of DayzUnderground entirely for me. This pushes me to try harder every time I make something new, to always show off what DayZ really is or even could be in the future!ĭo you enjoy being part of the DayzUnderground media team? Now, being featured multiple times on both Status Reports and Twitter, I just feel grateful they decide to choose my content over others. It took everything inside me to not to start freaking out from the excitement of being recognized by the actual team behind DayZ. The first time my image was used by another person was by the Dev Team on one of their status reports, I think when I saw it I was in class at the time browsing my phone when someone sent me a message telling me to check it out. How do you feel when you spot one of your images being used? Your screenshots are all over the DayZ community.

“Razor Sharp” – what the image looked like before the reflection was added. When I woke up I found that my post had skyrocketed to number 1 and stayed for almost a day and a half! I posted the image to /r/DayZ and went to sleep. They stuck with me until the early hours of the morning until I got what I thought was the best we were going to get. The people who were acting in the image were still willing to help out and find alternatives for the idea of the image and we settled on a street in Novodmitrovsk. I was completely distraught as it had taken me days to get everything needed for the picture, only for it to all be ruined by a couple of randoms. I was in the process of building a set with a Sedan I had found when they approached and killed me to take the vehicle for themselves. My top rated image on Reddit “ Keep Yo ur Eyes Peeled”, would never have happened if a random group of people who I came across didn’t kill me. Some of my best images happened completely by mistake, but turned out to be miracles. Usually anything I have in mind turns to a waste of time. Walk us through some of your process, do you usually have a scene in your mind before you jump in-game? This was when the Guardians (a group on DUG) were giving a group of survivors a tour of the North East corner of the map.

I started taking screenshots back in early 2016 using Windows 8 Photo Editor to add simple filters, and crop them appropriately to give them a “cinematic” look. How did you begin with taking screenshots? (Do you still have some of your earliest images?) In May of 2014 was when I joined the Pre-Alpha DayZ build, this time on an actual desktop computer (though I was lucky to push over 10 frames-per-second).

I downloaded a copy of Arma 2 and gave it a try on my laptop and even though I was running at around 12 frames-per-second, I was having the time of life just trying to figure out how to bandage myself! When I heard that Bohemia Interactive were working to create DayZ an official game I knew I needed to get myself a copy. Nazi Zombies felt like it hit it perfectly as an arcade style shooter, but DayZ beautifully ticked all the boxes you’d want in a zombie survival sandbox.

I was a big fan of movies like Dawn of the Dead and 28 Days Later, but I never thought a game set in a world like that would work. Never had I seen a game so simple, yet difficult. For me my experience with anything gaming related was Call of Duty, Minecraft, Mario, etc. I first heard about DayZ back in June of 2012 from youtube content creator paulsoaresjr. One of these people is a survivor/player named DrDeSync.

In a game where the main focus is surviving by finding food, ammo and weapons to live to fight another day, there are some who stop to look around and take in their surroundings, admiring the work that was put into creating this game we all play. From crumbled buildings to burned out cars, there is still hidden beauty in a decaying world. Interviewing our Screenshot Artist DrDeSyncĭayZ is an atmospheric game in a time where civilization has ended.
