DayZ

[hometeam]

With the DayZ standalone playable alpha release looming, I thought I would check out the mod version of the game. http://dayzdev.tumblr.com/

If you dont know, DayZ is an open world survival zombie game modification based off of the military sim ArmA 2 games. www.dayzmod.com

Basically its hardcore mode survival against zombies and even more dangerous, other players.

I have been watching vids for months and took advantage of a steam sale today to pick up ArmA 2.

Anyone playing DayZ right now? Servers? Thoughts? I have a teamspeak we can use!

For whatever reason the second vid keeps leading to d3, even though I have got the embed code out of the correct vid three times. Its twitch glitch I suppose. If you go to quagsins twitch highlights page it plays normally.

The 12 minute firefight was super intense but Quag didn't have near of good as an angle as I did, especially when I opened fire originally, and when I bullzeyed the dude by the shed.

I think I was actually the closest one in our group to them, but the way I was in the grass, and laying completely flat with long range scope and bipod, put me in a good position to where they just couldn't get a shot on me/see me

Hopefully DayZ and Nvidia get together and get shadowplay to work with DayZ, and I can record and edit the vids myself, and upload via youtube.

Part of me is happy when I'm KOS because then I get to customize my loadout again.

Where's the pudding?

[Buck]

Rocket should add a 7 lb can of pudding. As extremely rare food that has 100 uses.

[hometeam]

updates coming fast and furious, more loot/zombies/etc and 80 and 100 player servers are live in experimental.

rocket said he hoped to have dynamic loot spawning in on next major update.

[bowener]

I have been so tempted to build a gaming rig solely for this game. That is all I want to play.

[hometeam]

played tonight.

Got knocked out.

held up and let go.

And found a rifle.

All while slowly starving to death.

Just got my gaming machine fixed; was wondering if this game is worth a shot.

yes.

It is improving greatly from even a month ago.

psychopath simulator 2014.

Stanley Nickels and I today caught a guy in a building, had a standoff, ended up having to shoot the guy, but didn't let him die, saved him, robbed him just a little and sent him on his way.

Shit was tense and hilarious~
