I think it means it will be on sale for a discount during the alpha phase, not "there will be a discount for people who play the alpha mod"

Well I can't join any server now because it says that it's a bad version...

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forums and hopefully soon, dayz. I had a few questions regarding the game though, before I buy it. First, is it worth buying ARMA II: CO for dayz when there is a standalone coming out soon? Also, does anyone know roughly how much the standalone game will cost? Next, what is the re-playability like in the mod? I've seen people on youtube with lots of episodes of it so I assume it must be quite re-playable? Finally, what is the mod like overall? Is it fun to play and keeps you entertained for hours? I know asking this on the dayz forums will net some biased answers, but what the hell. I'll add any more questions I have to this thread when I have them, which I'm sure to have.

Nobody got any answers for this poor noob? :(

But you can just double tap Ctrl? It makes more sense than saluting to put your weapon away.

I used dayz commander so it's okay. But anyway, I have another question. So patch 95777 was released, and according to dayz commander, none of the servers are running this patch so I basically can't play :( How long roughly is it until most servers update to the latest patch. Also, is there a way to downgrade to any patch I want as when I looked at all the available servers, there was quite a few active ones which were running older patches.

I updated to this and apparently there are no servers running this version :S (I'm using dayz commander) How long will it take until most servers update? Or is there a way to downgrade to a specific version?

The ability to spawn with or near friends.

Don't really want "classes" in the game. What I would like to see, however, is maybe "job before the outbreak" or something like that. For example you can make your character be a police officer, doctor, and all kinds of other jobs that may give SLIGHT advantages. But nothing to do with stats, for example, a police officer may have less aim shake than a doctor.

I agree with this. For people that have other things to do and can only play for a limited amount of time, running across the map for half an hour just seems like a waste of time. Although a feature that lets you pick roughly where you spawn could be better than nothing (E.g pick north, south, east or west)

Just bought the game, it's installing now :D
