toastymcbutterbuns 34 Posted August 6, 2012 So, I 've been playing this at my friends house for a while and I have been wondering, does it matter if you download from steam or not? Does it affect anything ingame? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sula 1205 Posted August 6, 2012 I'm not a big fan of downloaded games because Steam and the others keep too much control over you and press you with adverts. They keep offering "free" games to download but when you do, you have to buy credit to play them.However, I found Steam a very quick way to access dayz. That's once the last update of Arma 2 was released. I had to sit here and wait about 6 weeks. Works now though. :thumbsup: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toastymcbutterbuns 34 Posted August 6, 2012 Thank you, how long or hard is it to access without steam? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sula 1205 Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) No idea, as that's the version I have. However, I used dayz Commander and 6launcher to run it too. In fact they're more reliable and faster, now I think about it.I bought Arma2 and Comibined Operations from Steam. I downloaded DayZ from the official website. Then got those two launchers I mentioned above.It's a frustrating game, and you do die a lot but it's a great game too. :thumbsup: Edited August 6, 2012 by Sula 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
