What time zone are you guys in? I live in AZ (Pacific Time) and can typically get on on Sunday's to get some action going; it just all depends on what is going on.

I am central. Now Xavier is on other side of world so he is 6+ hours difference.

Saturday/Sunday afternoons for you guys in the states works perfect for me (because it is night time!) Obviously if people can only make late nights I can always wake up early!

Yea weekends work best for me also. I do get in games during the week most of the time. But the next couple weeks for me is going to be brutal. Installing a new roof on the house next week and I have a bunch of studying for school this week. So this weekend coming, I would like to get a marathon if possible. Get a good 4+ hours in just doing the BIG missions that last hours and hours.

DayZ looks awesome, I might be picking ArmA 2 up very soon. Graphically this game looks nuts.

GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!! We need more OS ARMA players so we can do some epic coop and team up as a survivor group in Day Z.

Re: ArmA 2 (PC, 360, PS3)

Day Z is a winner. The ARMA 2 updater called SixUpdater is a must to get all the files downloaded but after that it is pretty easy to get started. Keep in mind the mod is only in alpha stages so there are some bugs and other issues but new content is getting added almost daily.

The latest and greatest thing they added is the survivor/bandit skins. You can play cooperatively with other players and try to work together or you can kill/rob other players. After a certain amount of type of each behaviour your player skin will represent the type of player you are. Thus if you see a bandit approaching SHOOT!

The mod is sent on regular on most of the servers and when you first start off you only have the makarov which is not very powerfull so that is why it was not an instant kill.

Yeah, that was lame. He unloaded 3 or 4 shots point blank and the guy did nothing.

My thing is, why would he comply though? Why would he let them go through the motions of robbing him instead of unloading them at the word go?

That looks pretty fun though I have to admit.

Because death is permanent in Day Z. Once you die you lose all progression and must start at scratch. So I guess he hoped they would just take some of his weapons and bounce out rather than kill him and force him to start all over.

This happens from what I have heard in DayZ, not everyone will murder you. Some just want to rob you. So his first error was traveling all alone. His second error was not hauling *** once they revealed themselves. He should of took off full sprint and attempted to lose them or engage them in a more 1 vs 1 setting by using the terrain.

If he took off straight into the pitch black I think he could of got away from them. He might of ended up in the arms of zombies but he would of had a decent shot of getting away from the bandits.

Re: ArmA 2 (PC, 360, PS3)

First time playing I spawn in the dark near some beach, and every way I went I ran into zombies. I managed to make my way away from them and ran into some random guy along the road. We traveled together for a little bit and then found a house with some supplies we took.

As soon as we leave my buddy gets sniped in the head as soon as he leaves the house. Nearly **** myself when that happened and then a minute later I was gunned down by some bandits that surrounded me in the house.

This game is freaking awesome. We really need to get a group going on here. Only problem I've seen so far is that server space seems to be scarce. Nearly every server is full when you are looking for games.
