XxRaZoRxX (DayZ) 0 Posted November 10, 2012 OK. So ive been thinking about buying this game and im probably buying it tomorrow or sunday. I just wanted some basic information like what to do. Like i have steam and i wanted to know what to buy and what to do to install this mod. And if someone could post the basic controls for when i DO get it, that'd be great! Thanks, XxRaZoRxX Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted November 10, 2012 Just use the in game menu and look at the key-bindings. Also, follow the tutorials that come with Arma, they'll teach you everything from walking to skydiving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
