But, yeah, we really need to do something about these folks that are forcing the youth of today to buy DayZ! That sort of stuff has to stop. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applejaxc 2500 Posted January 15, 2014 To answer much more seriously: No. The movement, looting, fighting... everything is just awkward and slow and clunky. You should wait for the game to be closer to finished (if that happens!) to purchase it. But to be with the cool kids in the thread: lol no 1 is make u $$ gams bro gtfo 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The DayZ mod is free. You didn't pay to play DayZ. If you want to play the real DayZ game, buy it. If you don't already like the mod, don't buy the current alpha, it's seriously lacking in features and will not be on par with vanilla DayZ for at least a year, so you can wait and save your money. The only good thing about buying DayZ right now is saving money down the line when the game goes full release. Edited January 15, 2014 by EchoZeero 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lorax 99 Posted January 15, 2014 First considering SA had been pushed back several times, and 3 months ago they were already testing server stability I can't say that I feel sorry for you. It was pretty much a given that they were going to get it out before Xmas. So I would do this. Play the hell out of that mod this next month or so. Download secondary mods Epoch and Aftermath and play those as well. Epoch has a lot of content and is more forgiving...Aftermath is less forgiving with less features. I personally like Aftermath. If you enjoy those mods and want an even more in depth, smoother, and visual game then get SA. But get it sooner than later before the price goes up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I appreciate a man who doesn't fall into the trap of anthropocentric arbitrariness when measuring his distance from my arse. But to be with the cool kids in the thread: lol no 1 is make u $$ gams bro gtfo I don't see anyone saying the likes of that in here, but then again, DJPorter is kind of crowding me.

t4nk83 5 Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) From your behavior, do us and yourself a favor, don't buy the game yet.You mean do YOU a favor? I could care less if the kid buys the game or does not buy the game. But judging from YOUR response you should go back to Infestation:survivior stories. You seem like a good fit. It is the game he is looking for, and he should buy it. To the OP: if you liked Day Z Mod, then in a year this game will retail for about 50-60 bucks, right now you can buy it for 23.99. So if anything, buy it now to save yourself money, try it out and take part in the community, and then continue to get your REAL zombie fix in Day Z MOD. The game could use the support, and we could use some more players that aren't ass-hats in the community. Edited January 15, 2014 by T4nk83 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rkelt 46 Posted January 15, 2014 Hi there...Welcome to the forumsWell...you can wait for a while and keep playing the mod...got more features and mods to keep you busy for a while... DayZ SA is going to be in alpha for a while(at least 1 year, i think) so the price should not change(i think)...There are a lot of features are not in the game right now...plus there are a lot of bugs...even Rocket said to not buy it right now...In the end...is up to you...if you think that you can ignore/endure all the bugs and the lack of features and things to do...and still have some fun, buy it...if not, keep watching videos and looking into the forums to check what the devs are working atm...buy it later Btw...like people said...Dayz Mod is free, what you bought is Arma 2 CO ;)Have fun mate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Element47 2480 Posted January 15, 2014 It is the game he is looking for, and he should buy it. judging from OPs posts (and what else is there to base an opinion on) i am perfectly confident, that if OP purchases the game in its current state, he will be massively disappointed by its current level of stability and feature-completion.

djporternz 644 Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) DON'T BUY THIS GAME!!!! The Zombies are dirty cheaters and wall hack like a bitch. The weapons are as accurate as and effective as crap. The player base is a bunch of needy weirdos and whinge about anything at all, and try to ram THEIR ideas down your throat and up your a@$# at the same time. FPS is f'ing awful, even on a US$10K system running technology even the NSA hasn't even thought up yet. YOU ONLY GET FOUR GUNS!!! Everything you eat will kill you and don't even think about regenning blood! Can't be done! And ladders! Don't even try!! Players inst-magi-server jump on fat loot spawns, combat log whenever a bunny farts, ghost through other servers, and then bitch and moan because their charcter got wiped by a bug in the Alpha!!! IT'S AN ALPHA!!! ALPHA==CRAP!!! 1PP/3PP? Doesn't matter. Whichever you choose, YOU'RE AN ARSEHAT!!! (Did I miss anything?)

Meeshe 170 Posted January 15, 2014 If you expect too much, you will be disappointed. Just wait for full release. This is good advice. Also, how could you of not known that the SA was being developed? If you knew enough to get arma2, dl the mod and find this forum, then Im astounded you spent for arma2 if $$ was going to be a problem. Knowledge is power.

vacanson 0 Posted January 18, 2014 Well the thing is I DID GET THE GAME lol and i do like it but there are SO many things that need to be done / fix in the same. But i can understand that the game is not done. So i'll let that part go. and there are some funny times i have and other times... well not so much....i was being held by gun point and i had a gun as well but it was 2 v 1 so much i can do.....BUT when a zombie came buy i got my gun and killed both of them and i felt like a happy little school girl lol cuz MAN i got alot of STUFF. all in all does it need work? YES! do they need to add more? YES. do they need to add more people to server? YES. THEY just need to do a lot but the game is FUN if you have some one to play with or make a firend like i did in game. i just hope that things get better IN GAME Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
