DayZ - zombie apocalypse online FFA permadeath survival Arma II mod

Next question: followed those instructions to the letter, launched as Combined Operations and clicked on Multiplayer - can't see any servers at all, I've clicked refresh, etc. - nothing!

I definitely think the concept of fortifying buildings would add something nice to the game. Given the dreadful open/close mechanics and the lack of many worthwhile buildings right now, it might not be possible in mod form, but maybe if it becomes a stand alone game?

It would be cool if they just added hammer, nails and wood. If you have all three you can fortify a door or a window of a house. Might take a while to find enough to cover every door and window of a small house though. I also think it could be fun if spray paint was added to the game.

Make sure your server browser is set to internet not LAN. It should be on the lower left corner if I recall correctly.

I realise it was to do with my university connection blocking it, so I'm using a VPN. Now I have servers stating my ping is 2500! And I can't find EU1 and UK1 has a password :(

Try forgetting middle mouse does that and having it bound to Push To Talk in Mumble. After a 5 minute conversation with WedgeX I had drained myself of all supplies.

D'oh! I reincarnated as a new person last night, and finally got my bearings! I'm on the outskirts of Elecktro, I believe to the west and north, waiting in a clearing! And this time I did not waste my ammo. Its nice to finally get a grip on the approach of zombies and calmly take one shot. Thank you World War Z!

I might not be on until 8pm tonight due to work. Hopefully we can fit into a server somewhere.

Oxrock helped me with this yesterday via mumble: try clicking on filter and typing in dayz.

Just bought Combined Operations on Amazon (made $40 using Amazon's mturk website). Can't wait to try out it.

I tried playing the Arma 2 free version on Steam and not knowing how to do anything but the basic FPS stuff lol.

I have to attend a birthday dinner, but I should be home by 9. I think I'm East of Elektro. Maybe we can hook up somewhere to the north. Avoid all the zombies and people in the city.

Looks like the main city on the ocean. But since I've not played ARMA, DayZ, or any of this, I can't help. But I did watch that 5 part series on DayZ.

I was thinking of trying this, but my RAMs being faulty, so I don't think I have much to run the beast that's ArmA II. If I recall right, do the latest expansion have hidden options for FSAA? I don't remember where I read it, but I heard it offered better performance over the ingame AA options.
 
Why do I keep making stupid decisions! With blood low and poor sight and hearing I decide to sneak after a bandit and his friend into an abandoned base. Did not end well.
