Day Z – Anyone play it?

What you mean Doc is that that bloated fucking engine will take up your entire monthly bandwidth allowance.

Back on topic though I’ve watched that video and both me and Ben now have a copy of the game so we’re going to be putting together a wee squad to give this a go and see what it plays like.

Yes I have it and have been playing it a little.
It is a little buggy in places but the gameplay makes up for it , it is not a game for Max as you dont even start with a gun and avoiding shooting zombies in many situations is a very sensible option .

Would be up for getting on teamspeak and playing with you guys .

Cool cc, we’re on ts most nights and wil either be on this or bf3. Even if in another channel just give us a shout

Lol that’s the spirit max, survival of the fittest and all 🙂 Cc and me are in a bit of a remote location but ben is going to spawn fairly close to electro and should be able to link up with you. If If not we’ll make an effort to get back that way ourselves. Had some good pvp last night and we can always use more, though we’re on a mission atm to try and build a car. I should be on tonight around half six.

what? build a car how?!

Will it have a cassette deck?

Yea you have to wary of other player activity constantly as not everyone is friendly, plus pvp is a lot of fun. The zombies are fucking viscous as well though so you have to be careful of thek as well when near any kind of buildings. The vehicles in game are rare but if you can find a reppable chassis you can find parts to fix it, whether it be a car, truck, chopper, or boat. If you have a vehicle it helps a lot but the sound will draw a lot of attention your way and the vehicle itself will be covetted by other players, but it also makes an entertaining target. I met a guy the other day who had just been killed after a 13 day survival streak, and he was killed when stopping to refuel. His buddy went to fill some jerry cans while he guarded the vehicle, someone shot out the tyres and put a sniper round into his engine block, setting the vehicle on fire with him in it. He either died in his seat or when he jumped out to more sniper fire.

Story coming up later in the chronicles about some pvp action last night.

Aye, we’ll be around again, maybe around five for me this time. This is our first experience of a patch release as well btw so no idea how long it normally takes to completely roll out but hopefully tonight will be a bit easier.
