And is the game fun to play alone or with just one or two friends, the videos I saw they were in really big groups and on voice comms but thats a bit too much hassle for me usually. Also when you die do you have to start from zero? So yeah I'm pretty clueless about it but the game looks cool to me and tempted to give it a shot just bit suspicious of the games engine which looks awful and might hurt the immersion. | ||

Starting off, usually you're all along the south coast so if you know the name of where you spawned, hopefully you should meet up with each other fairly soon. I've seen 75 man servers. When you die you start with the basic gear. It's really not that bad to be honest, if you find yourself a main weapon then you'll feel pretty good. Even if you've still got your pistol, gradually picking up stuff feels like progress. I think if you play alone, you should be able to meet some friendlies. In my experience, when people are just with their starter gear they are way more interested in looting than killing you and stealing your beans. | ||

Had a small encounter today when playing with my friend. Friend had just died so we were trying to find him some gear. We were checking the deer stands around Green Mountain when we heard gunshots coming from the radio mast deep in the forest. It was midnight on the server and we couldn't really see anything but decided to go there anyway to find out what was going on. The place was full of zombies so we weren't sure if anyone even was inside the fenced area but we took positions near the entrance and waited. Soon we saw this guy walking towards the gate. Unfortunately for him just as he walks out he aggroes 5 or so zombies and starts wildly shooting at them. He seemed to be alone so we acted swiftly and killed him. Got some nice loot: Coyote backpack and M4 for my friend, 3x NVG, 2x GPS, bloodpacks, a variety of other misc items and of course beans. I feel bad for the guy though, he stood no chance. Just shows you that every time you fire your weapon there's the possibility of someone hearing it and willing to track you down even in the middle of a forest during night. | ||

DayZ is going to be officially included in ArmA, so it should turn out pretty close in that. They're also going to add the mod in the next ArmA 2:OA patch, but only a few people are developing the mod atm. | ||

it was a nice break from all the pepsis and cokes.Also, i found out today that you stop moving while throwing a smoke grenade. i wish i knew that before using one when i was being chased by 4 zombies  still alive, but i had to use a couple cooked steaks to get me back into shape. made it to a hill overlooking stary sober and logged out. im going to have quite a raiding party when i log back in | ||
