So I bought Arma II and Arma expansion. Then I downloaded a "new" version of Six Updater: Play withSIX. Once installed, looked for the mod Day Z. It downloaded it correctly and patched it. The version is 1.7.2.5 I think. So I look for a server with same version in Play withSIX and run it. The game starts and it brings me to the main screen of the game, with a warning: ".Wrong Version.The server has rejected your connection" If I go into "Multiplayer" section, I find a bunch of servers, but just below appear "Version: 1.62" - "Version needed: 1.62.9..." (this last one depends on the server) So the first thing I think of is: "Didn't I have the 1.7?" But later, when I find a server with my "version 1.62" I try to enter, and it kicks me out, saying: "You can't play/edit this mission. It depends on DLC that has been deleted: Dayz_code, Dayz_equip, ..." And goes on. Ok, what can I do? I'm not a clever man, I just can't imagine what I have to do know. I though SIX would take care of versions and that stuff.

So ok guys, these are the main opinions I got from thread: 1. Day Z it's woth it, the game is pretty good and it's only 30 bucks, not much money compared to other games. 2. Wait until another game as standalone comes out. Don't wait anything from War Z. 3. Nope Nope Nope. Day Z is getting shitty, there are a lot of hackers and it's gettin' forsaken. So, yeah, the main opinion is No. Just because the mod was great at start but not now or because some new better games will be released. But anyway I still want to give it a chance, so do anyone know another nice mods for Arma II? (as nice as Day Z or close to it) Maybe If I find more kind of mods like that one I'll convince myself

That's exactly what I meant. Arma II is more a sim than the typical war game, and I don't want to spend long hours in completing one mission... On the other hand: @Kapr Okay I''ll take a look to it, thanks. @Nicksbrain Well but you had it before and you didn't like it, that's what I'm trying to avoid. Btw guys, what is "Standalone" ?

Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is the good place to post this, but I hope you don't mind. In any case, I'm in a conflict: I really like Day Z, I've seen gameplays and read about it a lot (basic guides, things you can do...) and it totally looks like the "best" zombies "game" ever made, just because it's really realistic (you need to eat, drink, there are long distances, you have to care about illness and temperature...). BUT I don't like Arma II, it doesn't look like the kind of game I'd like to play and wasting some money in a game I don't want sounds stupid, but I really want the Mod Day Z. So I heard somewhere that soon (or late) a new game will be released and it will totally look like this mod. I don't know if they're rumours or something, but I already heard a name : War Z. The point of all this is: Should I buy the game just for the mod? Is it worth it? or should I wait if some similar game comes out?
