@owaincodes I used to play on PC. But now only on console. It's less buggy now than it was when I remember it. But they've def made funding food harder. You used to be able to find a can of something in at least 1 house out of every town you'd visit. Now, they're all empty. I think farming and fishing are the ways. Knives in pristine condition are hard to find, but you can craft one. So far my tactic is to plant food at the edge of map near the debug lands. Less chance of being found.

@owaincodes DayZ is very brutal for new players. I've talked to many that said they were quitting, lack of food was #1 reason.

@owaincodes killing zombies is another way, but you need to be efficient at killing them without taking damage. They can swarm you fast. Once you get the rhythm of fighting them you'll find that about 1 in 5 zeds have a food item.
