DayZ profile: add Steam contact info?

[SJStriker 0]

This game requires Steam so I think it would be a good contact for us. It would also be easy to try and get a game going with someone you met in the forums.

? what do you mean... It already gives the name of the steam account, what more do you want?

The game uses whatever your Steam name is at the time of creation for your Dayz name so anyone that you give you Steam name to can send you messages.

Or do you mean in your forum account? You could put your steam name in your bio or interests area of your forum page and people could get that information pretty easily.

Ok thanks. I don't own DayZ so neither of this is true for me...

 

I wonder if I can use a different account that I created, buy the game, and use it.

 

 

Otherwise, cool. Good!

In My Profile>Edit Profile>Contact Options> Steam name

Maybe I don't want people to know what my steam and game account is...?

I have no idea what you want, then. If you don't own Dayz but want people you meet here on the forums to be able to group up in another game, why couldn't you just tell them information at the time you decide to group up? Also, why can't you put your Steam name in the Bio section of your profile? I do agree that it would make sense to add Steam to the list of contacts since you have to have a Steam account to play the SA, but I'm not sure why you just can't add it elsewhere in your profile where you can edit things.

I could, but then again you could do that with any contact info and their wouldnt be a point to have a section labeled Contact Info.

 

@Weparo obviously you have no idea what i'm talking about.
