Maximum players is 200 and minimum is 70. And the forums are up.
You will be able to get alpha acess guarenteed if you pre-order also apparently (all info from faq on website)
So excited :D
The site wont let me pre order.
Forums are still closed, meaning no registration. :(
[I]I want PAY FOR WIN! I have lots of money to spend![/I]
[B]Sorry pal, but this is the wrong game. Like in a real-world, post apocalyptic scenario, your money will mean much less than your natural survival skills, training and wits.[/B]
I seriously hope they wont fuck this up and become greedy in the end :/

I hope the devs encourage the illusion of "pay to win". Then I can go kill those silly fucks and sell their paid items for max stacks.

Or use the paid items as bait for the next sucker.

Hell, buying items yourself might turn a profit if you just keep baiting and trapping.

Have they announced a beta date, by the way?
Woohh, progress, lets hope they get the forums up and running fully wicked soon and start boasting what should be a great game.

We won't know that till it happens, now will we? :v
Forums have opened up for business boys.
next up, vid sometime this week plex
This game is turning out into what my fantasy zombie game would be like, even down to the map update system (where they say they will continually add new real world locations)
Let's cross our fingers and hope it isn't just smoke and mirrors
Honestly I'll be content if they just crank out a really robust 3rd person shooter with some MMO mechanics thrown in for good measures.
Pre-order doesn't work, when I click the pre-order thing it just takes me to a page where you can sign up for the beta.
I just want to be able to play this as a "singleplayer MMO" where I dick around by myself and try to avoid human contact.
I'm weird in games.

At one point I want to make a very specific gimmick character. I'd set all the sliders and options to make it appear as if I am an incredibly old man. Once getting suitable supplies, I'd go and hide in the forest and hills. Periodically I'd pick off survivors from afar, leave obtuse and seemingly random traps, and generally scream and yell whenever I felt people were near enough to hear.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;37014891]i honestly hope you can just drop a gun in the middle of the road, and watch the road from a mile away with a sniper rifle[/QUOTE]
From what I am hearing about the trap system you will be able to do things just like that.
I'm guessing traps won't be as effective as most of you are expecting since common sense
If people place traps well and effectively they will get some good kills.
Video please.

Maybe that wouldn't happen if all the DayZ fanboys weren't running around claiming it to be ripping off all that DayZ is.
[quote]You will also have the option to rent and manage custom servers without leaving the game. Players can create either public or private servers, allocating reserved slots to their friends or group members.[/quote]
So, from what I understand you have to pay for the private servers? that makes sense in a way if you want to use their servers but what about hosting on your computer?

Most DayZ fans are just morons who bought ARMAII just to play it and blindly defend the game, pulling the "alpha" card every time someone tries to criticize its visible faults.

I'm guessing you need to get a server from them so there won't be the issue of people cheating and taking their unfair characters into normal servers.

People bought a video game to have fun? stop the fucking presses! how dare they ever.
Dunno if you know this, but a lot of people buy source games just for Gmod too, but no, fuck those guys, how dare they enjoy a video game
[editline]31st July 2012[/editline]
It's funny, because you're the exact kind of person that then yells at players trying out real Arma 2 for being bad, and tell them to go back to Day Z
Hopefuly it will have roleplay attributes to it like emotions and such. Sitting down on a campfire, hello there hello here.

The morons I am talking about refuse to acknowledge the massive flaws in their mod.

I'd like this, as well. I always end up getting in character when I play MMOs, hopefully this won't be an exception.

Yeah well look what happened here.
[QUOTE=Mbbird;37018015]Yeah well look what happened here.[/QUOTE]
But this is facepunch, groups of people always have random arguments in random threads.
I definately look forward to this now, I hope I make it into the beta.
Well, they have a whole sub-forum just for DayZ :v:
This looks very promising and exciting. But I'm kinda skeptical. An unknown dev, a year development time...
