It might help for ppl who are completely raw to Arma2/DayZ/alpha type mods, to have an ingame message come up at start.. like the Domination missions or other missions have... a sshot or text at the load screen that basically says, "This is an Alpha build, expect errors & bugs, the Developers are working on the mod daily to reach full release."

Or something along those lines, that way ppl who just bought A2-CO because of the buzz from the mod, wouldn't be caught off guard & make post because they don't fully understand, it would cut down on the sticker shock effect that some ppl have.

Veterans of A2 & modding that complain, should be taken out back & flogged repeated as they know better, just my2cents.

DayZ is actually pretty good for alpha. Most of DayZ's problems come from the clunky ArmA2 engine plus Chernarus isn't the most modern map (lots of non-enterable buildings that drive me nuts)
