Arma 2 is really fun in itself and has a lot more mods than just DayZ. That said i bought it for the exact same reason a year ago and i loved playing it, but these days it's full of hackers. That and seeing that the Standalone Alpha is probably going to be released in the coming months i would advise you to wait for the Standalone, unless you are going to play Arma 2 and not just the Mod.

What you going on about, The standalone isn't even out yet.

It will be out soon and look at "Dat" progress zombies still dances and flies around, only progress in standalone is more visual crap.
I was looking forward to it still but they even made it more arcadish.
DayZ mod was really great but DayZ standalone looks like a rip-off and just a pile of promises(As WarZ or however it's called right now)

You are aware that the game is in alpha, right? You know what "alpha" means, right?

Wait are you thinking that WarZ and DayZ are made by the same people? That is completely wrong, WarZ was made by a different group to cash in on DayZ's hype.

No, it's not really worth it but if you really want to play DayZ or the mods of the mod, you should get Combined Operations while it is on sale. The alpha of DayZ Standalone is going to be at least double the price that CO is right now and it will be lacking stuff that the mod or mods of the mod already have.

If you can find a good server to play on, it's awesome. Sadly a lot of servers have hackers/problems with the way they are set up. I still think it's worth picking up Combined Operations. Even if you don't like vanilla DayZ there are lots of other mods that are worth your time. I like playing Lingor with friends.

If you just want DayZ wait for the standalone as it'll be less broken and frustrating. If you actually want Arma II, then there's no harm in getting it. Arma II can be lots of fun and has other mods you can play as well. Personally, I just like playing with the editor and spawning in tons of jets and watching them crash into each other, but different strokes for different folks.
