I have been playing DayZ more lately and I have to say it is without doubt the most realistic Zombie survial game on the market.
The game has many levels of depth from a pure shooter with PvP to an Apocalypse preview. Players can range from friendly and cooperative to cold blooded killers - who will say they are friendly and then pop a bullet in your head when you turn around and kill you for a can of sardines.
The game has many levels of progression from pure bandit (mad dog killer) to Hero and everything in between. You have a Humanity rating that starts at 2500 and can go up or down as you interact with other players. A hero is over 15,000 and they can then have access to a hero base with better stuff in it.
You can drive cars, trucks, SUVs or even fly a chopper or plane. There is weather, day and night and don't forget annoyingly persitant zombies. They have 2 zombie modes - slow shambler if you don't disturb them to full out fast running 28 days zombies if they see or hear you. All in all if you like zombie style movies or shows like Walking Dead - this is the game for you.
I am moving soon - December 16 - but sometime after that, I will be setting up a City of Heroes server. We can play any way we like but I was thinking that an entire group of people might like to have a second home for a short time.
If you decide to try the game (First Person Shooter) go to this site:
http://www.dayzmod.com/ and at the top choose Download DayZ alpha. It will then offer you 2 ways to run the game - choose DayZ Commander. It can help you with the setup, updates, server connections and basically everything about the game. I play on the Yackle server most of the time using vanilla Dayz. Soon a standalone game is coming out which promises to be even better.
