DayZ is a survival horror mod for tactical military shooter, ARMA II. Players are thrown into a 225km2 open-world filled with zombies and other players, fighting to survive and gather supplies. Recently I spoke a little about what DayZ is, and what it has accomplished so far. There’s a lot more to DayZ then meets the eye however, so I would like to take this chance to share a few situations which players can come across while travelling the zombie filled landscapes of DayZ.
It’s a brutal world out there, survivors are riddled with fear and paranoia, which can result in some very tense encounters with other players. When you die, your loot is available for any passer by to claim for himself, this means bandits will not hesitate to put a bullet in your head if you look like you have something they need. Not everyone is a ruthless killer however, some players welcome friendly company and will be more than happy for you to join them. Friend or foe can be a very fine line in DayZ, and you can never truly understand people’s intentions. Let’s take a look at what happens when things go right, and friends are made.
