What do I need to Buy to play DayZ?

Recommended Posts

I know DayZ is a mod for Arma 2 but what exactly do I need to buy to be able to play the mod? Do I just need Arma 2 or do I need Operation Arrowhead?

Haha you do need balls for day z

You could also use the dayz mod in steam, it is very easy that way too

You need ArmA 2 and Operation Arrowhead, together they form Combined Operations :)

Hi Apprentice, sorry for the confusing replies. Let me try to clarify.

You need Arma2 and you need Arma2's Operation Arrowhead. However, I believe these are sold together and called "Combined Ops". So if you see Combined Ops then you've got the right thing.

You will also need to download the mod, DayZ, which is free.

I recommend buying them via Steam if you can, as it makes things easier in my experience. However, others may disagree.

The mod is being developed into a separate standalone game, which will be available for purchase via Steam but I don't know when. In the meantime we're all playing the DayZ mod and personally, hope to continue playing it long after the standalone goes on sale, as both will be different games in my opinion.

Ask, if you've any questions. :beans: :thumbsup:
