Topic: Arma 2 - DayZ

Anyone playing DayZ at the moment? Its a zombie mod for Arma 2 and it looks awesome. Basically just gotta survive in a 225km squared state with zombies and other players around threatening you. You have to eat, drink, heal injuries, scavenge, etc, all while making sure you don't die. As the website says, the average life expectancy is '29 minutes', but if you can find some good gear in time, you can make it.

Anyway, I'm downloading it at the moment, and I was wondering if anyone has it, because it looks awesome when you play in a team, and it would be good to play with some of you guys.

heres the website for the mod: http://www.dayzmod.com/

and heres a gameplay video that introduces the game pretty well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxdHnbci1cg

Re: Arma 2 - DayZ

I've been watching videos for a few days. It looks like it would be great fun to play in a group. I don't think I'd be willing to shell out the 30 odd dollars for it in its current state, though (knowing that I probably wouldn't play Arma itself). Maybe once they fix some of the more serious bugs I'll look into it.

Re: Arma 2 - DayZ

I've got it. Playing it at a LAN-party is annoying, because you'll spawn at random locations along the shore, and it can take an hour to find your friends.

My old YouTube is since long ago defunct - now even removed.
Here is my new one.

Re: Arma 2 - DayZ

I'd love to try out this game, except for the fact that Arma II won't let me join any servers. Did you guys have this problem?
