Bohemia Interactive is delighted to announce the upcoming DayZ Free Weekend, starting on Thursday, February 13th (10 AM PST) and ending on Monday, February 17th (10 AM PST).
To play DayZ for free, head over to the DayZ store page on Steam and install the game – it’s as simple as that.
Oooh! Who is keen for a big team raid in DayZ!? It’s been so long since I played it!
I have never played it - tell me when and I will try download it beforehand
What Wyv said - never played it, but willing to give it a go over the weekend if I’m free when you do this raid thing.
Basically, it is a bit slow. You drop randomly on a map, normally along the coast. You then loot up as much as you can while avoiding the odd zombie. You also need to look after stamina, hunger and thirst of your character.
Loot respawns every 24 hours and the aim is to survive as long as you can. Teaming up with other players are easiest, but you never know who to trust. Starting with friends make it easier but you dont spawn on the same place on the map.
So, you spawn, find loot while finding your friends, survive and team up or kill other players for their loot. It sounds drab but gets VERY tense!
I think I’ve played a few hours of this. Mostly involved running and slowly dying because of lack of food. Encountering another player is very tense - but there was a great deal of boredom too.
Playing with others would definitely help, the conversation keeps away some of the boredom
@Nosferatie and I have played quite a bit. We are “super sluipers” and tended to keep to ourselves. We would kit up and hunt for the best gear and stalk other players, seeing how long we can follow them without getting spotted. Also, he killed a rooster once that kept crowing in his backpack.
I’m sure the game is very different from when I last played it which was at least more than 5 years ago!
I’ve been thinking of giving this game a go again especially with there being local servers. The only question is, do I need another competitive MP game in my life that I need to git gud at
If I had someone who had the game files, I would have tried it.
