Well my first experience of it is lackluster to say the least.

Upon finally getting the mod to work, i ended up dying repeatedly due to the bad animations, poor hit registration, and delayed input.

Example: was sneaking past a zombie, it saw me, i fired a round - which took about a second or two to actually fire due to the poor animations - it was a hit, yet the zombie didn't "die" immediately, so i fired another. Turns out the first shot was enough, it's just it took a while to play the death animation for the zombie.

The second shot attracted a horde, which lead to my demise. This has happend three times now.

It's a good idea, and the kind of game/mod that people have wanted for a while (hence the huge appeal), but it's a shame it's on ArmA II, which is just terribly clunky, awkward and frustrating to play. Mod = Good, Game = Terrible.

If ArmA III fixes these issues, then porting this mod to it would definitely be a must.

I love how it's so reminiscent of STALKER or Metro 2033 though, similar atmosphere. Really like that. In fact it's the atmosphere and survival element that will keep me coming back for more, regardless of the frustratingly bad animation and glitches. That ambient soundtrack that plays really reminds me of those two games.

Try being more careful around zombies, proning will make you basically invisible and make no noise. If you attract alot of them, your best bet is to run inside a house (if you're near one) which will make the slowly walk towards you allowing easy headshots. If you're near docks (most coastal towns or larger city like Elektro have a dock area) zombies won't go onto them. Try using stairs and ladders to your advantage, both will slow zombies down. As well as steep inclines on hills.

Don't panic and go into water either (swimming), you'll most likely lose your gear.

I caved and bought it. I got the full CO, but what are the other Arma expansions worth for this mod? Just for consideration if I love the game.

And It says I have a corrupted/incomplete install when I try an manually update. It took me 5hr to download, so I don't really want to have to download it again...

Edit- I was forgetting to run steam as admin... Ghey...

Bought it just because of this thread and I really have to say that this game blows. If you don't already have arma then please don't even consider this game.

The mod should be made using the farcry maybe. The maps could still be reasonably large that way.
