DayZ in its current state is a good game to play for a little while, I wouldn't say its a game you can currently get fully immersed into. Multiple times I've had a server restart without warning and as I've gone to join again, I've been dead. I know you're basically vulnerable for the first 30 seconds due to connecting and desync, but the fact that zombies can see you through walls and in turn run through walls makes it a little stupid when a server randomly resets. So until either, theres a ten minute alert or something on all servers and zombies pathing is corrected, I'd say don't invest in this game if you get frustrated easily. I've found myself fully set up with an M4 in hand and Mosin on my back (fully kitted out on attachments and ammo) to come back in dead and ended up almost breaking something. From what I've seen, I'd invest in "Rust" for $19.99 AUD. again, this is my personal opinion and I understand the game is in Alpha, but I personally think zombies being able to walk/see through walls is a pretty big issue, also if you've played the mod (EPOCH, I think) you have trader towns where you get invincibility inside the town, but you cannot shoot. I think something like this should be implemented (at least for now, whilst the game is still in development) for when you join in, or at least, as I said above, a message telling you when the server is about to restart.
