New guy

[Myspacemeh 3]

Decided to finally buy Arma II to get Day Z. Huge; long-time zombie fan. Hope it's worth it.

I'm from the south east of the states if someone can recommend a server or two that I can play on? I've never done anything more than watch some streams/youtube videos of the game so any help is appreciated.

Well, you seem to have rule one (Avoid Green Mountain) down; you should be fine.

If you have any questions (be it about the game, about the site, or about why kids love the taste of Cinnamon Toast Crunch), my inbox is open for all, feel free to shoot me a PM.

That just no girl. That's Mila Kunis. I would swim through the Amazon with 45lb plates tied to my genitals using Ellen Degeneres' queef as my air supply to have a seafood dinner with her over Skype using a dial-up internet connection.

Oh.

Well then.

Dang.

But really, I've heard of her before. I've no idea where.

[toxicsludge 406]

What's a queef?

[jackghnnm78@gmail.com 23]

Some advice, go to big cities when you first spawn to get basic supplies.

Then get the heck out of there and move north.

Edit: The server I play on is in my sig

What you really shoul do is go to Green Mountain at the dead of night, armed only with a Lee Enfield. Start a campfire an see how long you last. You'll be fine...

Welp, after finally finding a day time server (night time can suck it. Can't see a damn thing), I was able to sneak about and find a Winchester. I wasn't sure of what all I needed to do other than find more supplies. Ended up finding a couple of bandages, one of which I had to use after a zombie randomly came running at me and attacked. This was on an empty server as I'm just trying to get a feel of the game and the movements and shit.

Is there anywhere I can try to find a "survivor buddy" so I'm not entirely alone?

Welcome to the forums. Check out the Private Hive Discussion forum for a long list of popular servers. :thumbsup:

Will do, thanks. Is there any way I can do a search of a server's IP in the game/mod itself? Perhaps I'm just doing it wrong.

using dayz commander you can search up servers, etc.

Gotcha, perhaps I should stop being a pansy and just enable the "Any time of day" option and I'd be able to find some of these servers. Thanks.

Hey all..

Ok so im currently downloading the Arma games needed for DayZ, been wanting to play DayZ for a while .. Im glad ill finally get to play soon.. well i say soon, my internet is taking its time with these downloads -_- lol

So ive come on here looking to see if theres anyone willing to play DayZ with me

Im not totally new/clueless to/about the game, as ive played Arma 3, and ive watched quite allot of DayZ gameplay .. im also a pretty good player at these kind of games .. so it wont be a bad idea to join me for a few games..

Pretty much the only downsight to playing with me would be that i have no headset yet, untill i get one in 2 or 3 weeks.. But i have ears, fingers and a keyboard (lol) and that should do fine for now

So is anyone willing to play a few games with a new player and have some fun, while teaching me a few things about the game?

I did want to record some of my first DayZ gameplay, but ive now got the game a bit sooner than expected, and havnt set up recording or anything yet, so i wont be doing that.. However ive got a little challenge set for myself.. To try and kill atleast 1 player before getting killed for the first time myself :)

[RabidDiabetic 63]

I recommend both of you guys download DayZ Commander because it makes it MUCH easier to find servers. The server I play on does have night enabled and it is pretty much accurate to Eastern timezone day/night change. Meaning when it gets dark outside where I live in Michigan, it's getting dark outside in the server I play. That being said there's a lot of friendly players and new people joining daily who are in side chat looking for others to group with.

Our population is growing very quickly, we are picking up regulars daily and it's a really cool bunch of people. If you join up look for F8L3RR0R or F8LB3OTCH, they are the admins. Just say hi in side chat and when they see a new person they usually come to you and welcome you to server and answer any questions. Hope to see you guys around, my name is the same in game and the server is in my signature.

Yh, thanks.. i will download that later after everything else is done

So far its taken about 4.5 hours just to download Arma 2 :S Connection takes long to download things, but its not bad for playing online.. which is good

Estimated 5 hours to download Arma 2 operation arrowhead -_-

Will the DayZ mod be quick downloading compared to them? Im assuming it will
