a gameplay trailer would be better suited with audio from 28 days/weeks

"In the house in a Heat beat"

Yeah, but Greasy was going for more of an action themed.

How do 3 people find Coyote packs before they find cammo or ghillies?

I don't like the fact you play with 3rd person or tags on, but I have to hand it to you, there is some great PvP action in there.

Because cammo and ghillies are broken maybe?

Because they wipe people's inventory. I actrually have 2 ghillies in my pack, but they won't ever see any use at this rate.

That's pretty cool man. i see how you implemented the track with the music in the beginning. Constructive critcism if i may? I'm assuming that you are trying to promote Dayz, so i've just come up with a few ideas for you. What i think you should do is add 'Open world environment' in the beginning, and extend the music at 0:00-0:05 secs on the video to double that, say 10seconds, just to add to the Hype of the actual music track starting at 0:05, also adding the "open world environment" information in, which is, i think and important part of this game. At the same time, your video will have a shot chernarus in the background, from a high point in the game, displaying the huge environment around you. panning to the right or left, whatever you feel is good. You can extend the track by looking at it closely in your video editor, it's basically just copy and paste, and trial and error until the music sounds like it flows together. This will give your viewers time to .. i forget the word .. 'marinate' on what this games all about. The first few seconds, should draw them in to wanting to know what this game's all about, then hitting them with that 'whoa' when the music starts at 0:05, along with the action gameplay at the same time. Assuming your target audience is people who have never played before, it should be good. That's just my idea

Thanks for the idea that sounds like it would work nice, i'll have to mess with it later.

We have a base full of stuff but the camos and ghillies are glitched until the next hotfix, also I enjoy 3rd just because I really like the character models and weapons in this game and enjoy watching myself run etc. I don't usually play with tags on though there may only be 1 clip in the vid with tags on, if that.

This looks more like a commercial for the next ArmA 2 pvp/dm title rather than that of a zombie apocalypse and shows that the movie maker misunderstood the main concept of DayZ.

If you're capable of demonstrating the awesomeness of DayZ without the use of pvp and fighting then hats off to you. Frankly a video of spending 2 hours repairing a car, or running 3 hours across the continent isn't appealing to new members.

Depends what concept. The concept of the zombie survival, or the Player vs. Player Survival.

In this video obviously it's based off the PVP aspect of the game, you must of misunderstood the whole point of the video.

It might not be the "main" aspect of the game in your opinion, but I believe the PVP aspect of the game is the "main" aspect of Dayz.

Interesting, but I think you put too much player killing in this trailer and once again the real aspect of surviving is neglected. Also, if you don`t mind drop by my youtube channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/gamerlaur?feature=guide . Imma make some DayZ gameplay preview and maybe even have a shot myself at a fan-made trailer.

Yes, because all people want to see is him sitting in a building shooting zombies that walk in one at a time, that's real fun right there,
