    The old DayZ thread reached 10k, so the odometer has rolled over. :)

    Why do we need a new mod thread?

    Surely it's time to start talking about the standalone?!?

    The thread title can always be edited once the standalone comes out. That could be another two months, maybe even more.

    That's just two player coop, we were thinking of doing a campaign with more players though. Do you know any?

    The default red Harvest is Coop. Bugged to bits tho.

    Some brilliant coop missions on official forums and armaholic.

    Tried the Namalsk map for the first time yesterday. Probably my favourite map now and it's great in how unbelievably harsh it is in terms of survival (having to find warm clothes or heatpacks just to stay warm), plus the lack of food and medical supplies. The ambient background sounds/music is also great and adds a lot of tension.

    yeah and we likeit. but would only use it on a big map like cherno/takistan. with they way we have the namalsk server setup its easy enough to spawn vehicles buildings as we need them. plus the fact we have it installed just didnt turn it on.

    btw our ts3 server bumped up to 500 slots and its open to all.

    Jesus it's been months since I last played this after being completely addicted for a few weeks. Time to jump back into it I think.

    Grr having issues getting dayz up and running again.
    Arma and OA are now freshly installed on my new SSD but getting errors when i try to join any dayz servers, Wasteland is working fine.
    Ive updated both armaOA and Dayz via dayz commander but no joy, any thoughts?

    getting this message when i click to join a server via dayz commander

    Addon `dayz_anim` requires addon `CA_Dubbing_Counterattack

    Is the option run through steam unchecked if you have arma on steam.

    I had the same issue, I followed this video and It's working now I guess I could uninstall ARMA 2 vanilla now but I'm not sure. as it stands though I have 8 gigs of duplicate files on my drive.

    After downloading both arma 2 and OA, you need to start both games individually through steam at least once before dayz will work.
    Just start each game up to the main menu, before exiting out.

    That's true and you'll have to launch arma 2 OA again after you copy over the file.

    I believe the error message for that particular problem is "wrong serial number given in setup" or something to that effect.

    Found an awesome server, custom wep tables, added refueling at petrol stations..... the downside is that the admin is a 12 year old who can't take getting killed and to be honest hes stuck up his own hole about his server and his home made anti-hack system which I questioned and asked if he was going to put in a whitelist because anti-hack is not always that reliable to which he replied and I quote "This server is already amazing so why ruin it for a sh**ty whitelist if you dont like it piss off you f*g" ... people and their manners haha. Anyway server is EHD if you wana go check it out and/or troll.

    Ive been playing wasteland fine.
    I got it sorted but seems i have to launch the OA beta exe for dayz to work and launch via steam for wasteland to work, very messy.

    Rocket did a pretty big ama today:

    Nothing too interesting, but nice to see that he is a lot more positive about the future of the game now.
