I still have some of Matt's stuff if he wants it when I get back from Las Vegas. Or I can even give him my gear. I feel bad about the fire axe incident.

If you strip a victim of his gear and leave it in a pile, it'll stay longer than the corpse will. At least long enough for them to trot back and retrieve it.

Steam sale has Dayz SA for $25. The price will shoot up to 45 or 60 when it gets to Beta, so anyone interested should hop on now.

I personally grabbed my copy for $25 on ebay. Steam gifts are big business and if you search around you can find a deal from good sellers.

Seems to me lately any zombie I have killed with the fire axe has been a one shot no matter where the hit lands.

Was 25, probably back to 30 now. It is a standalone game. Yes, DayZ is the title. I think max players per server is 40. You use one character for all regular servers and one character for all hardcore servers, so your gear moves between servers. There is no single player, but it isn't that hard most of the time to find an empty server to play on. Plus the map is huge. It is basically a first/third person shooter with an inventory system. Zombies are present, but the real threats are other players. It's in early alpha status, so there are plenty of bugs and things could change drastically between patches.
I find it to be an addicting change of pace from the COD/BF games.

They're planning on having 64 player servers one they get 64 bit servers sorted out. They release a patch every 2 - 3 weeks, and they usually add more content, along with fixes. Pay 30 bucks now, and if you don't care for it, just put it aside. They'll never charge again for any more content. Will never have paid dlc. They run "Experimental" patch servers, which anyone can Johnson they get on them , and they use the Alpha purchases for funding development. I think it's a pretty neat plan.
Sure, it's Alpha, but it's fun, intense, and sometimes infuriating.

Update 46 Stable just came out, adn upon joining a server, i got a crash saying that "appdata\local\dayz\temp\__cur_mp.ebo" could not be opened. Apparently this is common with some updates. �To fix it, delete your \'MPMissionCache" folder. Of course, back it up first, just in case, or don't empty your recycle bin. Then Verify Game Cache in Steam. In case you're wondering, my character is still with the same gear as before the update.
No official CHangelog that I could find, but this is what was in the new Experimental, pre-release .46 update. i expect the Stable release to be much the same:

On another matter, I doubt that Dayz will be an 'official' BK game anytime soon. So can we get a Dayz section? Or move this thread to Other Games or something?
