Day Z (ARMA 2 Zombie Mod)

[chuckskull]

This looks properly good fun.

Read, and be shaken by your shoulders: the open-world zombie game you’ve probably always wanted exists. It’s called Day Z.

It runs as a mod for Arma 2: Combined Operations, in a haunted version of Arma’s 225 km² imitation of the Czech Republic, Chernarus. It isn’t perfect. The servers are usually full. But it is an incredible adaptation of the things Arma does well: emergent gameplay, making you feel vulnerable and powerful, decision making, managing supplies, and tense teamwork.

Keep mashing on spacebar, the servers stay full for ages it seems.

I also tried last night and couldn't get into a game, I managed to connect to a server but I got no further. People were saying there is a master server which I am guessing stores all your info and that it was under extreme load so that was the issue.

I'm hoping to get a game in through the week.

There was a client update overnight, it may have had something to do with that, check you're on version 1.5.7 and connecting to the same version server, I'm on just now and they've upped the zombie count significantly!

Had a great time last night. i started off quite close to the north wets airfiled and made my way there and looting some stuff from the small towns i came across on my own at pitch dark.

reached the airfield where some of the ocuk guys where and when i was climbing up the ladder i fell off and died LOL.

respawn in the coast and met up with Tooter i think his name was and met in the south coast airfield in a place called balotela? We found loads of nice cool weapons, he had a AK and i had a M16 :O

We camped in the towers and saw a few people coming tnowards us and my job was to go downstairs and into the hangers luring the poor souls out in the open for Tooter to kill them LOL.

we did try to ask if they wanna tewm up but no response so we decided, screw it, we cant trust these guys and took them out one by one with me luring them out in the open LOL.

was great fun and i just hid inside the bushes before logging off.

Great fun this game is

Shame Diablo III hits tomorrow will take me away from this for a while, looking forward to seeing what's changed when I come back to it!

no shame for because i hated Diablo 3 when i tried the beta. was poor and boring imo.

DayZ is way more fun!

the popularity of this mod is unbelievable. CO is 2nd in the top 10 on steam at the moment and i've never seen so many people playing the online game, not even when A2 or OA came out on release day. really hope a developer / publisher realises the potential this mod has

[DannyM]

I just can't seem to catch any luck with this, every time I try to join a server I keep getting "Waiting for server response", it's a shame

[Marenghi]

keep trying different servers? been ok for me recently bar the occasional waiting for server message
