Good memories for sure, i really wish i could play the version from back then. I remember that at some point they made infection so obnoxious that i have quit the game and never played it again.
I agree, original Dayz gameplay is still unsurpassed today. Dayz Standalone is okish to play but they have changed it into a survival crafting game when Dayz originally was a PVP interaction game. Survival and crafting was secondary. Its not edgy Dayz anymore, its more like a mediocre levelling up loot simulator with easy pointy shooty gunplay.
@@Yagdrol It's always been a survival game, they just added more to it in standalone than "just surviving" and there's more tiers to the loot than just "gun spawn in military bases" it's actually dependant on how far from spawns you are now so you don't have new survivors w as50's and people up north with nothing worth looting bc they already have the best shit before getting there. As someone that's made mods for both versions, standalone is far superior on a mechanical level because that's what it was made for.
Vanilla Flashback (EU) server, has an active owner and active players. It usually has about 3-9 people on during the daytime. Occasionally there is 10+ players on the server.
Thats how is how arma 2 dayz mod was.. I kill at 600mts with akm. Not was hack,the weapon gameplay is the best in arma 2 because is a military simulation.
I've been working on an Arma 3 DayZ for 9 years, Arma 2 DayZ Overpochins (DayZ Overwatch, DayZ Epoch, DayZ Origins) was my goal for feel but went me own way eventually. Standalone just never felt right to me and tried too hard to be a survival game with zombies which it devolved into a cluttered, clunky, soulless zombie game. Been seeing more of Arma 2 gameplay recently and the way Arma 2 engine handled skys and distant terrain makes me sad Arma 3 doesn't do the same still, seems reforge took a note out of Arma 2 in terms of distant terrain which is nice.

@@JeDoubleUTube There was a hack that instantly crashed a server and it was a problem with the game not the servers so there was nothing that server owners could do, i remember there was a span of like 2 weeks where the server would crash straight after coming back up and it happened to like the last like 10~ populated servers and after it stopped they average like 10players, was sad.
They ruined this. Had the best time with it over 10 years ago, but they simply ruined it. And it felt like they did it ob purpose. Standalone has always sucked compared to the arma2 mod, and it still sucks to this day.
I miss the old sounds. The footsteps, the guns clacking. Like ASMR to my ears.
still got ptsd from ladders in the arma 2 dayz mod
More doors than ladders for me, especially those damn fence gates😂
or switching guns mid pvp, peaking, running downhill,uphill, getting or getting on a rock. all classics
@rafox66 just remember mounting the ladders and boom broken legs just like clockwork 🤣
@maniac12098 laying down under trees and get bugged underground
@@rafox66stairs was the ptsd
man i loved this game soooooo much. Beautiful piece of art
Guys we gotta combine all our friends and bring the og gamers together to revive this game. No servers in NA ever have players ):
Im down
Im down too @@novitch0k705
play on vanilla flashback its gets 20 players just about everyday. ping doesnt matter unless its above 500
i have my best gaming memories in the orginal dayz mod!
I loved the old AI bandits, its a shame they haven't been added to the standalone
I remember being able to climb to the ladder through fire station wall
Good memories for sure, i really wish i could play the version from back then. I remember that at some point they made infection so obnoxious that i have quit the game and never played it again.
DayZ Origins was the best❤
great! I played it too. and I miss Origins lol
cars work better than dayz today, wtf
It wasn’t dayz engine it was running off arma
team immunity requieM? damn man I remember you from way back in the old BF days after Ministry clan died out

@@Yagdrol this is a wild and out of touch take

how did you get this to work ?? i have tried and it just won't load up
Make sure you launch both arma 2 and combined operations once before playing the arma 2 dayz mod. Hopefully this helps :D
u need to start the game on its own first without the mod
@@iMrequieM yeah that worked thank you
I still play it :) carpe diemz server
best game oat
How many still plays the DayZ mod? Is it worth looking into again?
There are still some servers that have people playing. If you wanna play for some nostalgia definitely give it a go :D

Suck’s nobody plays
Sad man, such a perfect game, it's crazy how the game was at its peak and was taken down by a group of like 10 hackers and just never recovered.
Yo what? Ive never heard of this

I disagree that its ruined, but I do feel like the movement and gameplay changed way too much from what it was.
the blatant aimbot is insane
you must be on something if thats aimbot
@@SNIPER-gg9ci so after 9:30 thats not aimbot, my man you are blind
bros cheating against AI lol
