Fenix January 7, 2014 Share Fenix Member January 7, 2014 Not sure if this should be in MMO section, or FPS section as it's a combo of both. Anyways, now that the standalone is available, how many people from GC are interested in playing? I used to play with a group of friends until the game was massively infected with hackers. Most servers are private ones, and usually there's only 1 admin on at a time...or 0 for the most part. So you know where I'm going with this.... Based on the amount of people on GC that play the game, would it be feasible to start a DayZ server? Since we have so many admins, including 1 that plays (Dragonfire.gc), I think we could get a successful server going. I know it costs a pretty penny, so I wanted to just get some thoughts on if it's possible or not. And if not, then I'd still like to see how many of you would play the game, or have played the Mod in the past. It's incredibly addicting, and makes for some fun times if you get a small group of people going. Right now the game is in Alpha, and the devs don't expect a Beta until a year from now. Not sure if the game will ever reach a full release mode, but so far the game has drawn in quite a few players! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
looneypumpkin January 7, 2014 Share looneypumpkin GC Board Member January 7, 2014 I'm interested in it, but waiting for a sale or until the kinks are worked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFire January 7, 2014 Share DragonFire Member January 7, 2014 The game is still in Alpha and I would not recommend anyone really buying this until a lot of bugs have been worked out. It still is pretty much up to par with how the mod worked with some new additions. This game isn't for everyone though and definitely not a kid friendly game. I would be up for helping to admin if this happened someday, but not sure if it's quite ready yet. I enjoy Day Z a whole lot more with friends and my friends aren't always playing this, so it would be awesome to have GC people to always play with. Servers are still having issues though with hackers even though it is better than when it wasn't standalone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbullTeRRoR January 7, 2014 Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni January 7, 2014 (edited) try out rust. I thnk I like it better than dayz and infestation. I have a lot of friends who've played both. They are all concentrating on Rust atm. But its still in alpha also so......take it for what its worth.... its pretty much a merge of dayz and minecraft Edited January 7, 2014 by turnbullTeRRoR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingCat January 7, 2014 Share walkingCat Member January 7, 2014 Never played neither dayz nor rust. But judging by videos and reviews, I most likely choose rust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenix January 7, 2014 Author Share Fenix Member January 7, 2014 Plz don't turn this into a Rust thread, as you've already created one Turnbull. This is strictly about DayZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbullTeRRoR January 7, 2014 Share turnbullTeRRoR GC Alumni January 7, 2014 I'm just recruit'n Jackburton plays dayz he's a GC member but he hardly visits the forums that I know of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFire January 7, 2014 Share DragonFire Member January 7, 2014 Yeah Jack asked me about Day Z. I told him not to buy it yet if he had never played, but he enjoyed what he heard about. So he bought it and plays a lot more than I do right now. I've seen Rust in action, doesn't really interest me at the moment, but maybe in the future. Rust just seems sad to me lol. You build a home for hours, maybe with some friends. You leave, come back and hackers or just anybody ruined your hours of fun. And people seem even more ruthless in Rust hehe. I've met some friendly people in Day Z with lots of stories to tell from being with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenix January 7, 2014 Author Share Fenix Member January 7, 2014 This is why I love this game so much. You can do so many things with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackYoshi February 1, 2014 Share BlackYoshi Member February 1, 2014 I've been bingeing on dayz for the last few days. It's good so far in alpha especially if you have a group of friends to play with. There is tons of room for improvement though. I can't wait for vehicles to be added.

Xterminator April 2, 2014 Share Xterminator Member April 2, 2014 I'm looking into DayZ but I'm probably going to wait until it's out of the Alpha stages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackYoshi April 7, 2014 Share BlackYoshi Member April 7, 2014 The game is a lot of the same mechanics as the Arma mod so even though its in alpha its still really well done. I've done a lot of pre-release game testing and dayz is hands down the best one i've played in terms of keeping out the game breaking bugs. Thats just my opinion though.

Sky May 16, 2014 Share Sky Member May 16, 2014 I've been looking at getting day z, even though it's in alpha. Participating in alpha greatly assists the developers (and supports them.) However, I've been playing nether here and there, haven't tried rust, and for <insert deity here> sake, please don't talk about infestation (the war Z) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
