twodimensions 0 Posted June 17, 2012 Okay, to start off I'm sorry if this is posted in he wrong section of the forums and I'm sorry if this has been answered here before. I just couldn't find the right answer. Most questions like this had to do with system specifications. So I wanted to know. If I can run ARMA 2 and ARMA 2: OA on my system with the only changed made, no shadows (person preference) and droping the details to normal. Would I be able to play DayZ okay? My friend installed his copy of ARMA 2: CO onto my system using his steam account but we didn't think to check if this mod would run fine. And I'm only going to purchase the game if this mod runs half decent. So long story short, can I run DayZ if I can run ARMA 2: CO okay? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lvg 1690 Posted June 17, 2012 Yes if you can ARMA you can run DayZ it's only a mod.How well you can run it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twodimensions 0 Posted June 17, 2012 Thank you for your amazingly fast reply. I had a feeling that's how it would work. But I wasn't sure if it addedso much that it may run differently. Again thank you for your fast reply. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shruu 2 Posted June 17, 2012 At the current state? NO. wait for the hotfix.You can run DayZ 1.7 fine, if u can run ArmA II fine, but stay away from 1.7.1 until the hotfix is out!Shruu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gnizdo 1 Posted June 17, 2012 Yes, if arma runs fine then install dayz mod with no warries! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lvg 1690 Posted June 17, 2012 1.7.1 Works fine for me, i get 80 FPS when under 20 players have to admit when at 50 it takes a beating down to about 40 FPS atm, but it's still playable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shruu 2 Posted June 17, 2012 I have 60 fps on 40+ but thats not the issue, the item/zombie spawn is, he wont have much fun with it as a beginner. If he has no high end system, he would only get ~15-20fps. Thats the average my group got on 50 player servers.Shruu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
