How to hook up

Recommended Posts

New here, I was compelled to ask why the youtube vids of DayZ show groups of people talking over the internet. Yet, I am yet to witness such a thing while actually playing it. Even using the built-in VOIP is frowned upon in this game.

So, long moan short...how the fuck does one get to team up and talk with others who are playing in the same server?

If you're grouping with just another survivor, even temporarily, (and are using steam,) you can use steam voice call as in-game chat. Other choices are Skype, Teamspeak, ect. Many organized groups already have a teamspeak set up.

Mumble would be great for this game, in fact it should be a condition. Trying to keep someone in view while you're typing to them is risky, and I know as I've been killed by people while typing a friendly message to them.

People generally don't disapprove of using ingame voip BUT set it to direct communication, having 40 people talking in the global voip chat can be fairly annoying. If you know a couple of people already a teamspeak 3 server is a really helpful tool. I can hook anyone up with one $4 per 25 slots...

Direct comm is currently broken at the moment until the next Arma II update. You want to team up? Consider using the beta patch.

Yeah' date=' shouldn't be an issue... it hooks into the directx process iirc, just like a program like fraps would.
