Can I run Day-Z?

[theenglishman 0]

Hey, I really want to play Day-Z but my desktop is pretty old so I'm not sure if I'll be able to. If I remember rightly, I've got an Nvidia 8800 graphics card, I think a gig or two of ram and an old quad core CPU. I used to be able to run Arma2 pretty easily, I had endless fun on the editor mode making enormous firefights then running around as a chicken.. Can I run Day-Z?!

If you can run Arma 2 OA, you should be able to run DayZ.

Well, depends... Before the latest patch the issue with framerate was still going, even on high end PCs. Now on the current version it runs a lot better, at least on the FR servers which I tend to play on the most. I guess you could try, but I can't promise anything.

OA? I never bought any of the expansion packs! I'm willing to play on minimal settings, though I'd prefer not to sacrifice draw distance..

I've heard it's best if you buy the Arma 2 pack and install the mod from that, where can I get it cheap? :P
