A 225 km2 open world post-soviet state and one of the areas hit by a new and presently unknown infection which has wiped out most of the world's population. You are one of the few who have survived and now you must search this new wasteland in order to fight for your life against what is left of the indigenous population, now infected with the disease.
Go Solo, team up with friends or take on the world as you choose your path in this brutal and chilling landscape using whatever means you stumble upon to survive.

soon, the internet will be infected by a zombie virus....
which means : we will only see zombie games and zombie mods...
anyway, good work
I hope that happens, I have been hoping for it since i first played resident evil.
Well you know Dayz actually takes place in Florida now?
the internet is already full of zombies judging by the popularity of unoriginal zombie games that could only appeal to the truly braindead.
This one is hardly unoriginal though.
The truly braindead are people who enjoy COD or any other likewise FPS. There are WAAAYYYY more of those than zombie mods/games.
Not all FPS games are unoriginal or intended to be "cash-grabbin" games. I still enjoy playing CoD4.
Oh yeah we need more super original games like Call Of Duty: Blackmodernwarfareops 69 so every year around xmas I can stand outside gamestop @12:00am with a 600 braindead D**chbag zombies so I can call out of work for the next week so I can be one of the cool high level players with a life and uhh wait what was I? uhhh forget it
What we really don't need to see another one of these horrible shooter arguments.
Adtually there are in fact far more war games & mods out there then there are Zombie games & mods, but no one seems to notice this as much, & also if people weren't interested in Zombie games & mods there woildn't be that many of them, ever think of that, but who cares, I like playing both ;-)
true I dont know if anybodys notice but theirs been this zombie culture lately i was at the book store looking at mags the other day and noticed in the gun mag section a zombie apacolypse mag which was basically a legit gun & survival gear mag base on gear you would want to survive a zombie apacolypse. I admit I love zombie games books and movies but i think people buying zombie killing certified 12 gauge shotguns and machetes is a little much.
I don't know so much you haven't seen my ex lol.
didja here about the dude who ate a mans face off the other day it took the cops about 7 shots to kill that dude(zombie right there...)
I'm a vegetarian myself lol.
That's a thought, if you were a vegetarian in life would you still be one if you came back as a Zombie.
That reminds me, I must start getting out more lol.
Having read your answer, I can guess (and guess right) you haven't seen this mod in action. Day Z is the ultimate survival experience and it's a paragon of a zombie game for me.
I happened to write a review for the mode a few days ago. Go on and check it out, if you like. Xp4t.com
If you have any questions with regards to the mod, let me know. I will be happy to answer them.
I just want to say how awesome this mod is.
I'd love to eventually see the survival elements incorporated into other mods such as warfare (because seriously, having to eat, drink ect would slow down warfare quite a lot which'd be pretty good.)
Overall though, this definately shows the potential that the arma modding community has and its really great to see such mods coming out these days. despite being another zombie mod, this one at least provides us with a lot of very interesting ideas that could really change people's perceptions of arma as a game.
you guys thinking of makeing a stand alone?
No, the main guy rocket already works for BIS and they have said they are going to fully implement it into patch 1.61.
I think they should just put all their resources into making Arma 3 the best it can be and then port it. Which I believe is the game plan, but I could be wrong
better make it standalone, you destroy arma with this ****, even the next patch for arma will include this crap, buy the engine and make dayz there or gtfo of arma
I only heard of this mod two days ago by stumbling upon it on youtube... since then I've seen it everywhere... looks awesome but my pc cannae play it :(
Then you should read RockPaperShotgun more :)
I don't really understand 'Combined Operations', apparently that's just both Arma 2s, does that mean I need arrowhead to play this?
yes, Combined operations = Arma2 + arrowhead
you gona do a standlone mod ?
I cant believe im in a zombie world.
So... No chance of playing this with Arma 2: Free then?
Not by itself but you can combine it easily if you have Operation Arrowhead already without needing to buy Arma 2 full but use free.
You just have to make a shortcut but I'm not going to explain how to do it here but there are many tutorials how to make a lite version of combined ops with just Arrowhead and arma 2 free; that is how I play and I can play on ALL Combined Ops required servers.
What do you need to get the game?
I love how zombie mod for military simulator (almost) is zombie survival simulator XD
FML Bought both game and expansion to play this game and I find out my cpu cant handle it T.T lags like **** online...
They really make the game look good, and I don't blame em'. This game is fantastic! I just wish I stopped trusting people too fast...I always get shot in Chernogorsk/Elecktro...
How much survival is it in this mod? How hard is it and do you need to find food? When i buy Arma II i will download this right away :)
I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.

Zombies everywhere!
Too bad ARMA sucks.
is this for ARMA 2?
You need Arma 2 + Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead to play. This pack of games is often referred to as Arma 2 Combined Operations.
No singleplayer?
is there someone willing to help me?
I'm stuck on the radiotower @ mid of blackforest on low life and my friend passed away... so if there iss someone please reply
you do know you can log out and log into another Sever if you are surrounded by bandits and Zombies right?
First, AMAZING mod.
Second, what song is that in the video?
