yoshi625 1 Posted October 10, 2012 I was simply wondering if there's a way to test DayZ before i consider buying Arma2 OC and getting the mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeoblong@yahoo.com 614 Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) No.You can get arma 2 free, but you'd still need operation arrowhead to play DayZ.Honestly just wait until the stand alone is released in the next few months.(edit) Well if you have a friend with DayZ you could play his and see if you like it enough to buy Arma CO for the mod.

Sandwichx 103 Posted October 10, 2012 DayZ is free. And I would suggest NOT buying ArmA II just for DayZ. Buy ArmA II because you want to play ArmA II. If all you want is DayZ, wait for the standalone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lefroy Jenkins 32 Posted October 10, 2012 I bought Arma II just for DayZ. That doesn't mean I won't try Arma sometime, although military type shooters aren't really my thing.(Yes, I understand how much more involved it is)If you've ever dreamed of an open world zombie survival game, generally while playing L4D, this is it. And then some. I've only been playing for about two months, and I'm still blown away by the depth of this game. This mod, in and of itself, is worth the purchase price of Arma II CO. All of the above is just mho, feel free to shred me up for it. <grin> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Never 237 Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) I was simply wondering if there's a way to test DayZ before i consider buying Arma2 OC and getting the mod.Well get 5 of you on a private BF:BC2 server, get 2 guys to steal all the vehicles and hide them badly, 2 to wear ghilies and go sit in hedges on the opposite sides of the map and take pot shots at each other, then get the last guy to use up all his ammo and run up and down the beach like a retard.It'll give you some idea of DayZ on public hives. Oh, and make sure to play it on 'Ardcore mode for that AS50 round to the toe insta-death feeling./tongueincheek. Edited October 10, 2012 by Never Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IncognitoNico 71 Posted October 10, 2012 DayZ is free, YES PEOPLE YOU READ THAT RIGHT, DAYZ IS FREE YOU DON'T BUY DAYZ YOU BUY ARMA 2, A GAME THAT HAPPENS TO HAVE THE MOST AMAZING MOD IN THE WORLD, but anyways, if you don't want to buy ArmA wait till standalone, if you do want ArmA, wait till standalone and buy ArmA 3, DayZ standalone is coming out this year anyways, rocket said it has to be out before the end of the year.
