Yes indeed, one could, but please read my entire post. I like games inside my games dawg.

Yeah things were perfect for me too after about 250 hours in DayZ. Recently I've discovered a whole A4 page-worth of dupe camps (containing about 50 NVG & GPS total) and have come in to contact with at least a few hackers too. Myriad bugs and server hoppers/alt-F4-ers are kind of part of the furniture now though...they're unavoidable no matter how long you've been playing.

It's not a weird question :) Disabled gamers are often under-represented and reluctant to speak up because they are a minority - this shouldn't be the case! DayZ would indeed be more challenging to a deaf player, but by no means unplayable. As has been said, players will be your biggest challenge - hearing gunshots from a distance is a sure-fire way to be sure there is danger in the area. This lets you either avoid or tactically approach the danger. However, by moving cautiously and being more visually aware of your surroundings than a non-hearing-impaired player you will be able to level the playing field somewhat. Sound is by no means essential if you have good spacial awareness and navigational/tactical movement skills. It is surprising how many people run around in this game like headless chickens - if you pay attention to your surroundings (even without the ability to hear) you will already be at an advantage compared to a lot of players. If you'd like a group to play with and help you get set up when you start DayZ, feel free to add me on Steam. Our group is about 10 strong when everyone is online. All UK-based and 16-26 in age. We wouldn't turn down another pair of eyes :thumbsup: steam: cruising_beef Good luck!
