DayZ: Arma 2 Zombie Apocalypse Mod
Discussion
Anyone here played this?
It's a zombie apocalypse mod for Arma 2. Unlike L4D etc it's much slower paced and since its based on Arma is quite hardcore and realistic. As you forage for food, supplies and weapons, not only do you have to watch out for zombies but other players too, who may or may not be friendly. I've only seen videos on youtube but I'm now on the hunt for Arma 2 and Operation Arrowhead (both required) to play this, it looks terrific and extremely tense.

Yes I have been playing this, a lot!
Had some really good fun with it. I've basically decided to become a murderer for the fun of it.
I stalked a guy for about 2 hours yesterday. I kept telling him what he was doing in the chat and he was confused as f
k because I was keeping my distance, watching him through binocs. He could not see me at all. He kept encountering zombies and nearly dying. I just watched them swarm around him. Eventually he ran out of ammo and had to make a run for it. I let him get to a relatively safe area and told him I would be leaving him to get on with healing himself etc.
Then I killed him with one headshot from ~300m away (first shot -lucky, sniper rifle, CZ or something?). He raged a lot. Was hilarious. I just love how you can stalk people or pretend to help them, then kill them anyway.
Love this game

The impression I get is that players are much deadlier than any zombie, unless you find a friendly ally. The whole paranoia element of not knowing if other humans are on your side is ace. The mod has driven up sales of Arma 2 by 500% apparently
Not played it myself yet but I imagine a fairly decent system is required.This is a cool vid, the squad of players are a bit full on with the Chris Ryan stuff but it looks fun.
