I like the addition of melee combat to DayZ. Finding a crowbar or hatchet increases your chances for survival if you don't have a gun or have run out of ammo. The kills are relatively quiet so you don't announce your position to other players or agro the zed.

Agreed. I actually prefer to carry a pistol and a melee weapon instead of a rifle, but keep one in my backpack in case I need the range on bandits.

Yeah, enjoying the hatchet. Last night took a stroll through the airfield on the coast and the field hospital next to it armed only with the hatchet and pistol. Never needed the pistol. Took a few hits but no broken bones and found a cow on the way out. you tend to be more sneaky with out the one shot one kill option

Happy Dayz
