DayZ Standalone sticking to ArmAverse

[Cap'n (DayZ) 1827]

While I understand an assload of this community hasn't even touched ArmA(they should), I hope that Dean tries to stick to the Armaverse(aka, ArmA 2 campaign/universe). I'd like to think that maybe the infection started right after Operation Harvest Red, and that the infection was developed by US scientists on Chernarussian soil in return for helping them with the civil war. When they had to withdraw from Chernarus, maybe some strains of it got into the wrong hands. It'd make a nice backstory. Also, they could make FOB Manhattan up at Klen mtn. a good place for military loot. And since they're expanding outwards, why not make a border between Russisa and Chernarus? There could be a lot of wrecks of people trying to get into(or out of) the country and it'd would be pretty cool to loot it. Maybe a Russian garrison and the border gate with some exclusive loot ;) Also, the road at Kamenka leads into Miroslavl(there is actually a poorly done custom map based off of it), maybe they could create a future map of that. When you reach the end of the road, you could fast travel over to that side of the map in another server(public hive only). Anyways, just a thought.

Good idea. But I prefer the idea of a natural virus tather than one man-made virus.

A prerequisite for downloading Dayzmod should have been 100 hours logged gametime in Arma...that way we would effectively screen out the COD kids...

Arma would be sorta like a bootcamp for Dayz
