You can also get ArmA 2 Free and just buy Operation Arrowhead... bit cheaper but Combined Operations is a better package I feel.

Depends who can get on

There are 70 members so far in our DayZ Group with around 30+ in game name etc plus info on how to join the mumble server so you don't end up getting shot by one of said boards players

Edit: You should access to it now

Hadn't gotten to play for ages due to work. Bloody hell, that terror feature makes things awkward. The shaking caused half my shots to miss, leaving me defenceless against the second half of a horde. A lovely anonymous survivor came to my rescue and let me escape, after finding a clip for two rifles I didn't have and a crossbow bolt. Still shaking, my saviour gone, I stumbled across a hopping zombie. No ammo left so I legged it into a port town. No more trying to be clever, I just legged it, more and more zombies giving chase. zoomed up the ladders of a loading crane, decided I wasn't going to get anywhere soon with no ammo and a crowd of zeds downstairs, logged out until tomorrow when there'll be some bloody daylight.

This is right up there as one of the best games I've ever played . Been Lone Wolfing it around the map just to get a feel for it and its a delight . Only down side so far have been a few minor glitches , worst of which was picking up a c550 and ammo but i cant equip it . I was thrilled to pick a tin of sardines and a pepsi this afternoon .

Also, [Boards]BBC, I'm sorry (not really )
The Lighthouse....

Brought some justice to the world today.
Just north of Electro, heard some shots coming from the power plant so decide to investigate, see a guy, about 300 Meters away, on top of the building running to the ladder to get up top of the tower. Hear a CZ off to my right and play it cool. Wait for the sniper to start looting the body and put a Lee Enfield round right in center mass. Twice the loot for half the bullets

I think its just for stopping vehicles.

Going by previous updates each one builds on another,so it may be setting ground works for more vehicles.

You need to take painkillers to stop it shaking.

Also the number key 1- 9 will give you different angles both in 3rd person and 1st.
