bluezangetsu 0 Posted May 28, 2012 If I buy ARMA2:CO off of a steam and say my friends go get it somewhere else but we all install the mod will we still be able to play together or no? I'm assuming we would since the servers would still be the same unless I'm mistaken but I dont wanna buy the game and install the mod only for me to be stuck alone (by alone I mean none of my friends) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grey508 17 Posted May 28, 2012 Yes, of course. Just like any other game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgtdorian 2 Posted May 28, 2012 Yes, you will be able, you just have to do a few different things, not hard stuff (Steam users need ArmA II Game Launcher to launch mods, which by the way, its an awesome app) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
machomanugget 26 Posted May 28, 2012 you use combined ops launch from steam, well i do anyway then you can just filter the server list on multiplayer server browser for DayZ servers and it will bring up all those that are on the mod.you can then decide what server you will both join.. easy!

All you have to do is right click on the game in Steam, open options, then launch options, and type in "-nosplash -mod=@dayz" there. After that, the game lauches fine from Steam itself.But otherwise the Steam copy and the retail copy are exactly the same game, and work fine together.
