Demaster13 3 Posted June 16, 2012 Hello everyone,My friend wants to play Dayz too, but he doesn't wanna pay for Arma 2: Co.So I had this idea.. I've let him install Arma 2 and Arma 2: Operation, and install Dayz o; When he logs in, he actually logs in on MY character. And we can on the same times, when we're in different servers. Otherwise one of us is getting kicked.By the way, we are playing on the same IP, since he always brings his laptop to my house to game together. (Could this be the problem? Do dayz-characters get saved based on IP?)Thanks in advance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bamboodel 0 Posted June 16, 2012 Your character and progression are tied to your cd-key, so no. Just tell him to buy OA and get ArmA 2 free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Demaster13 3 Posted June 16, 2012 Thanks for the quick replies guys.He downloaded Arma2 free though, so I suppose that the character is tied to Arma 2: Operation? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lvg 1690 Posted June 16, 2012 You need the files from both games to make it work the game runs through combined ops which means it uses both repository's your character is tied to your CD key ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bamboodel 0 Posted June 16, 2012 Yep you need an Operation Arrowhead key, that's why you can play with ArmA 2 free.It's a bit complicated to get it to run but just google it and you should find a guide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Demaster13 3 Posted June 19, 2012 Alright thank you.I play with Arma 2 free also, but it was very easy to get it run. I just installed Arma 2, bought OA and installed it, then installed Dayzmod Sixlauncher and it worked :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
