[IMG]http://wireframebox.com/dayz/dayz_standalone_fp.png[/IMG] Its finally out! Starting a new topic to keep the mod talk and standalone separate Over two million people played the award winning Mod by Dean Hall for the military simulator ArmA2, and now the game is available through the Steam Early Access programme. Available at: [URL]http://store.steampowered.com/app/221100[/URL] Also here: [url]https://store.bistudio.com/dayz[/url] [B]This is DayZ, this is your story.[/B] DayZ is a gritty, authentic, open-world survival horror hybrid-MMO game, in which players follow a single goal: to survive in the harsh post-apocalyptic landscape as long as they can. Players can live through powerful events and emotions arising from the ever-evolving emergent gameplay. There are no superficial helpers, or waypoints, no built in tutorial or support given to players. Every decision matters, every mistake can be lethal. There are no save games, no lives. If you fail, you lose it all and you need to play again from the beginning with nothing but your wits, and your two hands. Fight the hostile environment, where every other player can be friend or foe and nothing can be taken for granted.

One more is nearly ready, got 3 lined up! anything you'd like to see? [editline]16th December 2013[/editline] The game is cheaper on the bohemia interactive store right now! [url]https://store.bistudio.com/dayz[/url] Also Ive found lots of people not being able to get a daytime server, The time is local to the server so if you go to the search settings and change to look for servers with a ping of 300 and not just 100 then you can connect to America or Oz. Hope this helps! new video: [B]Turning help in DayZ Standalone[/B] [video=youtube;RWjIiRaGIYo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWjIiRaGIYo[/video] [highlight](User was banned for this post ("We already have a thread - Dont advertise" - Craptasket))[/highlight]

so I'll probably try streaming again tomorrow when servers actually have daytime [editline]16th December 2013[/editline] anybody got the map yet?

You can get daytime! just go into the search settings and change your max ping setting to something like 300, right now its default 100 this means you can see servers in America or Oz. The way nighttime works is its relative to server time, its night in the uk so :/ Its an odd way to do it because most people will be playing after work which by that time its already getting dark Also no map yet, sorry

i hope they really change the way time works because i won't be playing during light hours

Yeah, its not good to be connecting to a faraway server just to play. hopefully they'll do 'all day' servers. Also i heard the suggestion of having day and quick night, so its not as long. maybe soon they'll mix the server clocks up!

can the mods close this, we have a fully functioning thread already for this [editline]16th December 2013[/editline] making a new thread to advertise your shit = muy malo

Was anyone else getting frustrated at the "Bibles, Medkits and zombies" video because of his lack of knowledge of the buildings?
