IMPORTANT TIP

How to get someone up after they have been knocked unconscious:

Combine 1 Saline with 1 IV starter kit and apply it to the unconscious person. After up, make sure to deal with whatever issue originally caused the unconsciousness.


And make sure to eat and drink A LOT if you want to avoid being unconscious.

That's really cool.

The price is disappointing to say the least.. I've played months of DayZ, but it's december/christmas, there's no way I can afford it.

There's not enough stuff working/changed to get me paying for it sadly. I've paid for Arma:CO, and it's pretty much the same game as Standalone right now. I'm only upset because I'm missing out on this huge wave of new people swarming to the game, and it would be fun to tie them down and starve them to death.

I'm super interested in trying this, but I'm unsure if I could run the standalone at a stable frame rate on my surface pro. Anyone here playing DayZ on a low powered machine?

DayZ is a very demanding game. If you're trying to run it on Surface Pro, save yourself the trouble, and don't try.

So after 12 hours i kinda got bored with the standalone alpha and decided to finally give the mod a proper shot. Problem is, I am really, REALLY annoyed by the controls. I've spent 30 minutes trying to remap everything to be the same as the standalone version, but I can't just do it properly. Is there a way to have a simiral, easy control in the mod too? Maybe somebody has a config file I can download and use, or should I just somehow get over my ragequits? I really, really, really hate how overcomplicated the mod's controls are compared to the infinitely better (but still really rough) standalone version :(
 
I just installed the Humble Bundle collection via Steam, but I can't figure out how to join the GAF server. I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but how do I join the server indicated in the OP? I quoted to see the details, but I'm not sure if I'm looking at the right server.

Thought I'd give this thread a bump for anyone who still hasn't played DayZ mod and would like to give it a try. Yes, the mod (and its mods) are still alive, still fun, and are in a very mature state these days.

The Steam encore sale is on, and you can currently pick up the Arma 2 package you need for $4.99: http://store.steampowered.com/app/33900/

"Combined Operations" is the minimum requirement, at $4.99. If you want some improved textures and of course much more content added to the base Arma 2 game, the "Complete Collection" is the primo option at $7.99.

Redditor /u/BC_Hawke has put together this starter's guide for new Steam sale players: http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/2qvk2e/psa_how_to_get_started_in_vanilla_dayz_mod_for/

Note: Much of the information in the OP of this thread is outdated. Refer to link above for installation & server info.
