The one you bought on their site, maybe. I only bought OA on their site and they were nice and fast about it. I even told them I gave them business still so I'm sure that made them happy. I should have mentioned DayZ so they could pass the word along on how the mod sold me on the expansion. I now have 2 copies of Arma II.
Were you with GAF by the airfield last night? I don't know if I want to come in without Static.

The "Airfield Incident" was very interesting. Someone should watch the VOD and see what happened. But, I wasn't with them, died well before.

Who'd you buy the game from?

That was so dumb. Uniforms are desperately needed as it would avoid soo much confusion. We were killed as no one knew who to shoot. It was still a blast though.

What about the patches?

See that's the thing, I didn't install any patches. I dot know if the download I got was already patched or if Steam did it automatically. But I imagine they would sell the most updated game possible. Though I could be entirely wrong. You could try it how I did and see of it works for you and maybe report back after. Have you tried playing the arma 2 install by itself? Try just seeing if you can join a MP match of vanilla Arma II.

Steam? Say no more.
As I said earlier, all I did was drop the files and edit the line into the command line in the game properties in Steam and never had any issues.

I agree, this is the one I'm using. Tough to see at night tho but the most distinct human face I think.

I wish I could put blue face paint over my zombie face. Though MOB is probably more on track. If we all made Black characters we would probably have an easier time. There aren't very many black character models in the game I've seen running around, besides MOB and Slope.
Ok after the 4th uninstall/reinstall I managed to patch both games without file mismatch or other random errors. I'll try to get the mod installed now
Thanks, I didn't know I could skip the 1.11 patch

If you got things good to install, the mod should basically be drag and drop. You're almost there!

Played last night. Holy shit is the game creapy as fuck at night. I've never played Arma before so I didn't really know what I was wad doing. I killed me a bunch of zombies though. Never ran into anyone or found a map.
Couple of newb questions. Are there a lot of doors that don't open? I was going up to tons of houses and none of them would open, didn't know if I was just dumb. I also didn't get the looting. Do you spawn full, or what 'cause I found like one item off a zombie it would actually let me take.
I would also see like a broken red chain symbol pop up from time to time towards the right of the screen. The fuck was that?

Most doors don't open. You will get a green symbol if the door can be opened (looks like two green arrows pointing towards each other), and it will appear in your context sensitive selections via mouse scroll.
You don't spawn full, you have room in your general inventory, and also in your bag. The entire inventory system is a bit wonky and convoluted, but once you understand it, its bearable.
The broken red chain happens from time to time, I think it's the server syncing up with your character or something, it shouldn't persist for too long.
I'm getting this error too.

Just killed my first bandit 
I met up with a guy near the south airfield. We came across him in one of hangers. He popped smoke and escaped without a shot when he wouldn't respond to FOF challenges. Just when we were ready to head out, the guy next to me drops from a headshot. I dropped and crawled under a nearby tree with my buddy's body in view...and waited. Sure enough after 5 minutes, the bandit came strolling up to loot the corpse and I dropped him. Felt soooo good.
Now I have a scoped rifle, map, knife, matches, binoculars and enough food and ammo to hunt more bandits.

Dual Cast for those interested. Though we are playing just a few co op missions right now as the Servers for DayZ seem to be getting hammered.

I hope that's a joke post.
no, constant russian chat in EU and US servers.
im not hating russians but this is annoying as fuck.
all other nationalites are chatting in english but for some reason, bandit plots probably, they constantly use russian.
This is a really dumb post

The idea that someone speaking in another language must be a bandit is beyond fucking retarded.
It's annoying to have lots of people of a different language in a server, but it happens all the time in loads of games. I'm sure people who can't understand us don't like being flooded with English they can't read, either.

The whole map is in Cyrillic and you are annoyed by Russians. Just think them as natives of the country and you - among other people took refuge in this place, invading their homes and causing the virus to spread.

Found a Huey. In the middle of no where. Climbed in. Rushed to take off and get out. Crashed on Devil Castle as I was trying to land on top of the ruin tower.
Haha.
Oh well it was a nice ride ! This character was like 3 or 4 days old? Litteraly lived up north, Between Berezino and Vybor.
Killed a lot of zombies, my favorite weapon is the def the winchester with the revolver has hand weapon.
Found a pump action shotgun and auto shotgun at the AF but ... still prefered the winchester for its ammo count. Sported the m14 with acog, but after the fun was over I grabbed the first winchester I came accross. I love it so much. They need to add more wild animals in the wood. Hate looking for the elusive cow. Found a huge pig once.
Killed a couple survivors on the way. Had a close call on the Airfield at the firefighter tower with one. Was down to 2K blood. I had 9 cooked meat to save the day.
Its a great mod. Rocket must be proud. I hope this goes far in the near futur. But not too far, this is hardcore, I love it like this way. Tweak it a bit in favor of more casual approach, it would ruin it.

Haha. I like the paranoia. It fits the game.
I was getting a different variation of this error and fixed it by reinstalling 1.60
I was playing without a problem on Chicago 5 like 10 minutes ago.
I misspeled, I meant noW it's working.
but it seems that servers are pounded naturally. People in chat have been trying to connect for 4 hours
problem is the server gets pounded from both connecting new players as well as players who has died and is respawning as new characters.
Inte om man förstår språket ifråga.
Hoo-ha!
But nah, just let everyone speak their own really. Let them conspire.
But then, I had the most fun EVER on some Russian only server in regular Arma 2 where they played cops and robbers. ALL text in russian. All chatting in russian. I didn't understand shit, but it was hilarious.
Like Cops Russia.
