Nimz41 105 Posted August 8, 2012 It runs off of Arma 2, so Unless you can get Arma for free it is not possible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paeyvn 23 Posted August 8, 2012 It's quite possible. If you receive a legitimate copy of Arma2:CO from a friend as a gift, you can play for free! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rienspy 3 Posted August 8, 2012 Nope, you have to buy Arma II and Operation Arrowhead (=expansion for Arma II) to play DayZ.I also heard of a way to play DayZ with only Operation Arrowhead and Arma II free, but that's less legitimate and you still have to pay...I guess you'll be better of buying Arma II Combined Operations (Thats Arma II and Arma II OA in a promotion package), or you can wait for the standalone game to be released. But DayZ is definately worth the money! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tweakie 199 Posted August 8, 2012 it costs 25€ (½ the price of a new game) in that price you get 2 games + tons of mods (dayz included).You can save 10€ by buying only Arrowhead and using it with arma 2 free (the demo) but you will have horrible textures.P.S. Stupid fucking question. Why the fuck would you be able to play for free? what kind of numbty question is that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xPandaHunterx 59 Posted August 8, 2012 Well, you can torrent it, but you can't go online, can't play with friends, updates are a bitch, the whole interface is buggy as hell, and 9 times out of 10, the game doesn't save your equipment. To make a long story short, just wait for another steam sale, and buy it (I got it for like $8). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmashT 10907 Posted August 8, 2012 Start saving and buy standalone when it is released, I don't want to have to read your thread in a couple of months time complaining you had to buy the game twice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ex0sT 0 Posted August 8, 2012 Thank you guys for replies. I guess i will wait for standalone. But when i going to be released and how about price of it? And will it be possible to buy in my country, i live in Lithuania. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gobbokirk 546 Posted August 8, 2012 It will probably be on steam or some other online store so shouldn't be hard to get it when it is released. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But DayZ is definately worth the money!Actually playing Arma II Free + Operation Arrowhead is a legitimate way of playing the game. You just have worse textures.So, to clarify this: DayZ is FREE, at least until it goes standalone. But you NEED to have original Operation Arrowhead. You CAN use Arma II Free legitimately.Stop that please....you dont know anything about his background....maybe he´s from Croatia...What the hell was that? Are Croatian people worse than any others? Or do you think it's some kind of a third world country? Go back to school and stop making fun of people because of their nationality. Your post just proved who's the cheap bastard here.
