I played for a bit so far. LOVE IT. The music and ambient sound effects are amazing, especially if you play at night (sneaking around and hearing children voices is not that scary, but definitely enhances the tension and the mood). There are lots and lots of loot, especially military one, which can lead to some bloody fights over cans of beans, because places to find food are much more scarce ( i think this adds to the feeling of authenticity - in an apocalypse food would go away first). All in all, definitely try it out, it is a rather different experience from the other maps currently available :)

Just create a shortcut for the game (Arma 2 OA), add -mod=@DayZ at the end (in the properties, where the path is), and try running like that. It doesn't launch through steam then.

Have you tried running it through a shortcut? I mean adding the line -mod=@DayZ to a shortcut.

Yeah, there's some nice things to be found on Arma 2. F.e. I recently joined one of the communities that do life role-playing (district life RPG). Basically you can become a cop, or rob every place you can find, or just be a truck driver :D Things like that lets you experience the game as a base for any amount of ways you can play it. :)

YES The idea would create some more authenticity. However, in such case, I think it would be good to introduce more weapon spawn places, or something like a melee weapon.

I think rocket said that this increases game performance significantly.

Nice :) Could you should shed some light on how the spawn probabilities changed?

Some nice changes, should make dayz a bit smoother :)

running should restore some temperature, at least for a short period

Eeeeek! Thank you rocket! ^^

People don't get it that they could have just stopped playing for one day by their own and in that way the peak would be gone :DD

maybe your character did not save afterwards? Sometimes characters save at different times. F.e. when I was playing with a friend his char saved, mine saved only after about 20 minutes... Best way to make sure - check the debug monitor, where it says "unsaved - true (Xs)". that Xs will say how long ago the save happened :)

How will the death investigation work? is it like a delay before zombies attack somebody else?

Norway1 server is trying to do that. The safe zone's supposed to be above stary sobor

net cutting out and alt-f4 or abort sends different message to the server :)

You have to shoot the animal :) Then use the knife to gut it and get raw meat, which you can cook on a fireplace

It's gonna be a hump galore.

Sounds interesting.. Maybe not have it "only for killing", but you would have to wash it or apply antiseptic to it?

Well, the game actually has no in-game rules :) You can go the good or the bad way, whichever helps you survive :)

I don't think they can smell you. If you move silently they will not aggro. Sometimes they can see you through doorways and windows though

That's like saying "remember not to use all of it when I get some of it back home" to a hungry crack addict :D
