Helloooooo,

I'd like you to point out three reasons why he should buy it so I'll be able to convince him. :D

Thanks in advance and greetz,

Link him to some of the stories or videos that are in the forum Gallery.

Tell him about your experiences.

If he's a RL friend let him have a go at your house.

I wouldn't recommend this game to my friends. Maybe in a few months or more when the hackers and bugs are fixed. It's play at your own risk right now, and i've lost 3 straight characters to hackers or bugs.

I'd like you to point out three reasons why he should buy it so I'll be able to convince him. :D

- You only need to install and manage one mod for DayZ, not 5-6 like on usual ARMA 2 servers.

- He will experience how it is to die from a toilet door

- If you exploit, hack and generally have sociopathic tendencies you'll get the bestestest loot evar

Now seriously - if you have to convince him or win him over, maybe its not the right game for him and for long-term fun you may be better off looking for people who already enjoy playing the game.

I chose to buy it simply because I watched a video and it seemed like a game I would like to play.

A lot of people won't like the game the way it is now, some will. If after watching some videos/stream they don't like it, then just drop it for now.

It is cheap right now so that is a very good reason to get it now.

1) It's cheap

2) You will get 10000000's of hours enjoyment

3) It's sandbox nature allows for all sorts of gaming experiences

The list could go on and on and on and on and on :)
