is the channel chat always dead and unresponsive?
On Mumble? At least among EU players it has been.
If you're talking in-game, it should be unresponsive imo. There used to be too much shit in the chat before.

Been playing the whole day on the GAF server, came up on a MASSACRE, three dead survivors and a ton of zombies. Waited for anyone to run up and claim the gear before taking one of the guns... I haven't found a gun before! So empowering...running through the woods now, trying to NOT find something to use it on.
Also, the GAF mumble is deeeead.
On the gag server just found a crossbow and beans!!!
I need a canteen! Someone rendezvous with me and I'll trade .45 act ammo.

I've been on the "Main Party" channel under dayz on the gaf mumble main server for the last 30 minutes.. i haven't seen a single person join.
No idea whats with all the surrounding white but whatever said:
I finally picked up the game today but I'm having issues with the graphics.
I'm getting some kind of dark fuzz around everything in the world. It's really weird and annoying.
I played around with the settings in game, tried a bunch of things but didn't find any solutions.
Thanks! So I can buy the games now and gift copies to them in a week or so?all of you just make steam accounts, then you can purchase and gift copies to your friends through your account
Yes!Thanks! So I can buy the games now and gift copies to them in a week or so?
Trying going into the ArmA2OA.cfg file in "...\My Documents\ArmA 2\" and change "AToC=7;" to "AToC=0;"
See if that does anything. Make sure to save the file and to edit it with the game fully closed
QUOTE FOR MUMBLE INFO
yeah that's the one I'm on.. Only bigfoot and I (quikies83) have been on in the last 45 minutes.
WTF...my Ammo just vanished. I thought I was putting it into my pack and now it has just vanished. Not on the ground, in my inventory or my pack.
So just getting back into this game after not playing it for a long while, i hop on the "GAF" server and within 5 mins a stranger comes up to me and hands me an akm with 7 mags of ammo.
What happened to everyone murdering everyone on site? Have the GAF repented their sinful ways?
So I am looking into this. Is this an MMO, or are there only a few dozen people on per server?
It ranges. Lots of 40-50 player servers. But a a few 60-100. 100 is the target they are shooting for on all servers down the line though
Can I get it with just the base Arma II game, or do I need to get Arma II: Combined Ops?
You'll need Combined Ops...mate it's $18 on steam, you'll live.
There's a big difference between the base price and the combined price considering I just got laid off today.

- Download Steam and install it
- Run Steam as Administrator (r-click the Steam shortcut to do it)
- Download Arma 2
- Download Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead
- Run Arma 2 once (you can exit once the main menu shows up)
- Run Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead once (again, exit once you see the menu)
Step 2: Installing DayZ
- Download all the .rar files from armafiles.info/dayz (any mirror will do)
- Go to your Operation Arrowhead folder (default would be C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\)
- Make a folder inside this folder called @DayZ
- Make a folder inside the just created @DayZ folder called Addons
- Unrar all the files you downloaded here
Step 3: Installing the beta patch
- Go to http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php and download what ever .zip files is on top of the page on the green background
- Unpack the .zip file
- Run the .exe file inside as an Administrator
- Click OK, Yes or w/e it asks of you until it's all done (if Windows says it wasn't installed correctly, don't panic - it was)
- Go to your Operation Arrowhead folder (where you created that @DayZ folder) and go to Expansions folder and then beta folder (default is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta)
- Copy arma2oa.exe in to the Operation Arrowhead folder (the same one where you created the @DayZ folder) (if you want to be safe, just take a backup of the original file here since you will be replacing it.)
- In steam r-click Operation Arrowhead and select Properties and then Set Launch Options
- Copy/paste the following in the line: -beta=Expansion\beta;ca;Expansion\beta\Expansion -nosplash -world=empty -mod=@DayZ
Step 4: Running DayZ with the beta patch- Double-click Operation Arrowhead in steam and a small window pops up
- Select Run as Combined Operations (should be the bottom most option)
Step 5: Enjoy.
- Eat beans
- Get killed
- Repeat
Step 6-1000: Upgrading to the latest DayZ or the latest beta patch
- If DayZ updates, just download new .rars from armafiles.info/dayz and extract to the original location (those folders you created, remember? \@DayZ\Addons\)
- Above step is easy and you only need to download, unpack and replace files that have changed, not every single file (you can see this from the dates at armafiles.info/dayz)
- If a new Operation Arrowhead beta patch is released, just download it from http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php and unpack, run the unpacked .exe as Administrator and replace your current arma2oa.exe with the new one that was just now created in \Expansions\beta.
Ill post the instructions I used when I got Dayz.
So I am looking into this. Is this an MMO, or are there only a few dozen people on per server?
