Chameleon Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Day-Z Totally! Always wanted to give it a go, if we get a server I am so in Quote
Scream Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 My friends are stalking me to get War Z, have you thought of getting it instead of dayz? Quote
Jefke Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) My friends are stalking me to get War Z, have you thought of getting it instead of dayz? If you like being scammed go for it Only stupid people buy that POS: - They copy/pasted their old game (war inc or something) - They been taken down from Steam (recently put back up though) - One of the devs is the behind Big Rigs, probably the worst game ever - They banned people so they would buy the game again - They stole art from the walking dead - The original TOS was copied from LOL - The game is basicly pay 2 win with micro transactions => you can lose the stuff you bought with REAL money - ... Read here: http://warzscam.tumblr.com/post/38634146432/update-exclusive-war-z-trademark-suspended-game All things combined: either buy Arma II for the dayz mod or wait for the dayz standalone Edited March 4, 2013 by DrJoske 1 Quote
Administrators daredevil Posted March 4, 2013 Author Administrators Posted March 4, 2013 It seems resource usage is extensive...I did more investigation.. grr should have done before.. http://www.gameservers.com/game_servers/dayz-hosting.php 75$/month... I checked the requirements... http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/7876-server-hosting-quick-faq/ SSD recommended.. 500 IOPS is killer... Scrap the idea of having a server for Dayz or Arma 2... If I add SSD and RAM in our machine it would bump the price of our dedicated server. Forget it. I never thought it would be so resource extensive.,, SAS 15K drives are not cheap either... RAM = 20$ SSD 120GB = 25$ BW is nor an issue for us and we can easily handle 2TB/month. But someone got to pay extra 45$/month for that.. and I am not going to be the one. I was looking at new games to add for our community since we have 1-2GB of spare RAM on our server.. but the requirements are killer for DayZ or Arma. Amra2 is 4$/slot/month... Quote
Administrators daredevil Posted March 4, 2013 Author Administrators Posted March 4, 2013 Maybe trackmania nations forever server Link to it please? If we can run anything within appx 1GB RAM and less IO usage sure we can go for it. 1 Quote
RumbleJunkie Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I have really been considering wither to buy this game *Dayz* or not, because I hear there is a game near completion just like this only slightly better =/ But now I might have to reconsider if you guys get a server o: Quote

Ow_my_eye Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Dayz is a lot of fun, but it's a hackers paradise. When (if) the standalone comes out, maybe the prices will drop? Quote
