    How to install DayZ

    DayZ Commander is one of the worst available programs. Ever. If you reaaaally really hate manual installation, I'd suggest playWithSix. Just open it, select ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead Beta (under the "games" tab), click the "Mods" tab (it's big and on the left side; hard to miss). Scroll through the mod list and find DayZ. After it's done downloading that, launch the game. The BEST way to do it Download DayZ Put the @DayZ mod file in your ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead Directory Go into Steam and set your Operation Arrowhead Beta's launch parameters to include -mod=@DayZ Create a shortcut (it looks like a folder with a blue arrow at the bottom) in your ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead directory named addons that links to your Arma 2 directory Launch game, have fun.

    Dayz Lagging no matter what fps 20-30

    Steps to fix common lag problems: 1. Launch ArmA 2/OA and join a multiplayer match WITHOUT any mods, DayZ, et cetera installed 2. Launch ArmA 2 OA (with DayZ) and connect to a server (doesn't matter which) 3. Close ArmA 4. Exit Steam 5. Turn off computer 6. "Accidentally" drop computer 7. Ask parents for a new one
  3. ...no PvP? What the hell kind of DayZ is that?

    Server saying "Wrong Version"

    Did you download/install the newest Operation Arrowhead Beta update? http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php Right at the top, version 11 thousand something (damn BI is busy...) Are you launching the beta patch from Steam (NOT ArmA 2: Operation Arrowhead. Specifically the one that says "Beta" in its name)

    Will the SA actually be a zombie game?

    1. Sniper rifles are only useless vs zombies in the mod because zombies can endlessly respawn. This problem will be fixed in the SA... at least, that's what their early intentions were (devblogs lately seem to be contradicting this) 2. WHAT game with PvP has a stronger PvE factor? There aren't any. It's an unavoidable problem unless you want super zombies covering the entire map. I can tell you don't "Follow the DayZ forums much" because 3. The game is a survival challenge vs humans and zombies, not Left 4 Dead. You want to control the zombies? Go play something else.

    The DayZ Steam one works.

    Anyone Want to Play

    I'm in the mood for TF2...

    Anyone Want to Play

    LOTS of people ask to play other games on the forums, it's a valid question. >.>

    how did people get SA invites for pre-alpha?

    For being well-engaged and well-liked members of the community with a history of zero Administration troubles and a generally helpful/humorous attitude in all posts. Basically, opposite of me.

    FPS DAYZMOD.

    Zombie spawns, loot spawns, packet sending, scope zoom, vehicle crash/explosion, building destruction...? There's lots of things that cause a "sudden drop" and then your FPS returns to normal.

    Admin added a remote blackscreen to me

    You get rid of it by not being an asshole and going to a different server. Spamming prick. >.>

    BFL ( CLAN RECRUITMENT )

    It'd be great if "Clan Recruitment" was in the title, rather than being so cryptic.
  15. Thanks. Alas, I'm sticking to vanilla DayZ. Can you guys make one of these for ArmA 3? :)

    Thoughts on SA? (Standalone)

    It's worth any price tag. I'd give family members for DayZ SA.
  17. Textures Bug fixes Melee improvements Replacing WIP sounds, placeholder zombies Fixing towns Fixing loot spawns to not be floating in the air To name a few things.

    Connecting to server problem

    Open ArmA WITHOUT DAYZ, go into multiplayer, and start a local game, then run around for a few minutes. Exit, turn DayZ back on, and try again. This problem is completely normal, extremely common, and has a stupid fix. :)
  20. You have to remove your previous ArmA CD key and replace it with your new one. Google how. And don't cheat again, ye bastard.

    The map

    Find the coast, open your map. If the coast is on your right, you're facing east... or north... (I haven't played in a while). Find landmarks and go from there. Play a lot in the editor (without DayZ) and get familiar with landmarks in Chernogorsk/Elektrozavodsk (two major loot centers) and how they look on the map. (IE, if you see the International Hotel, you know you're in Cherno)

    Precious Values

    ...when the fuck did bandits ever have anything other than a gun and ammo? I don't know why people keep alluding to this "Golden age" of highway robbery; it's all murder, murder, murder...

    Side chat in Standalone

    It won't be in the standalone. At least... not in public servers. I shudder to think what Teamsuck BS there's going to be in pHives.
