Is it worth to buy Arma II for DayZ?

Even if they do (I don't really know), I would think that sooner or later you are going to be getting an inferior experience compared to the standalone.

I feel like Standalone will be much better in a few months, and the mod will lose support from Rocket. The mod already has lots of scripters (hackers) who like to ruin everyone's experiences, and I think their number will increase. Most players will eventually move to Standalone as it gets more features. But you could buy Arma II if you want to try the other things, like the realistic singeplayer, the editor that is full of possiblities, and the different multiplayer gamemodes. But I don't recommend buying Arma II for just one single mod that is going to probably lose it's players in a few months.

I would not buy it anymore. Countless hackers already ruined the game for months and their numbers probably will explode since it's only 4€ now. If you want DayZ, buy the standalone! I'd say it is definitley worth the 24€/30$. The interface and gameplay is much better suited for a MMO, particularly with the new melee system which is really good if you know how to use it properly.
Also the graphics of the standalone version is outstanding compared to ArmA II.
I played more than 34 hrs so far in the standalone with having played hundrets of hours in the mod (dont have it on steam so it's an estimate). I definitely think DayZ SA already is better than ArmA II: DayZ.
But that's just my opinion ;)

thanks

No

I would say yes, buy it. DayZ (standalone) lacks of content as of its early alpha stage

DayZ Mod is pure hardcore. If you want to do nothing but die, die and die some more then buy it.

DayZ Standalone is much more user friendly, more stable and easy to pick and play.

Also, main enemies in DayZ are zombies. Main enemies in DayZ Standalone are players.

Get it for DaiZy. :D

Buy Arma II for Arma II.

buy Arma II for Wasteland mod and for other mods without zombies?

IT's worth to buy Arma for Arma

I played Arma II DayZ mod for a couple of hours and it was.... awfully hardcore and therefore unbearable. I really hated it when I was running for some hefty 20 minutes in the middle of bloody nowhere and all of a sudden got shot by another player or something. The only cool experience I had was when me and my friends found a proper car and we went for a ride. That's it. I recommend to avoid this game unless you are a masochist.

If you want dayz, just buy SA, it;s already better than the mod.

If you decided to buy arma 2 I have spare in my inventory. I will be happy to lower the price for you. Just add me on steam.
