Alex (DayZ) 8 Posted May 9, 2012 So I've got two little bits of interest about the mod and the game itself (excuse me though I'm really uneducated about ArmA so bear with me here hehe)1. DayZ is set in what time period? I'm curious because are we dealing with a STALKER timeline here? More modern? 1990's? 2000's? This brings me onto my second question; 2. Whats ArmA's capability with implementing other mods with author permission into DayZ? If this is a STALKER timeline, perhaps we could make the game look and reflect more of a STALKER universe? I'm getting at things like; seeing a platoon of these bad boys approaching and patrolling Cherno;Cheers guys.Alex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a mod I don't think it would be a problem, but if this wanted to be developed into a stand alone and such it wouldn't work anymore considering they don't own the IP to stalker.

colosseum 2 Posted May 9, 2012 No.Leave it in the ArmA2 universe with real life weapons and equipment. If you want to play STALKER, play STALKER. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skurcey 11 Posted May 9, 2012 not real life weapon = not ok, zombie = shure, no problem ?... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LordFrost 3 Posted May 9, 2012 I just want a choice in player skins, really. Seeing the same PMC and German military suits gets old.Why can't I be a police man? A construction worker? An indian... Wait, why does my mind go to the village people?Brb looking at naked women.Also: Not gay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex (DayZ) 8 Posted May 9, 2012 There isn't a persistent world multiplayer PvP STALKER game, otherwise yeah I would be playing STALKER - unfortunately STALKER singleplayer can't satisfy my thirst for entertainment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ihax 16 Posted May 9, 2012 I'd say leave it how it is. I like this modern post apocalyptic zombie outbreak setting and scenario. Not some future looking military fighter hunting zombie guy. The casual looking civilian is a lot better. So for stalker I'd say just go play stalker then and leave this how it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
