For anyone asking: server info is in description and yes it does have a decent amount of people playing during peak hours.
It's been a decade... damn we are getting old
More then that brother
Bro, dont have to mention :'D this game still looks epic!
I kinda miss the ole days of CDA getting into a server and literally destroying every group on it
times going too fast and everythings gotten worse lol
Yup.
The feeling when u find tents, vehicles loaded with guns far away in the woods is undescriable..
fuck yea, this game gave me incredible excitement, I loved the feeling when I found crashsite etc
Played this back in 2012 with 15 fps 12 fps good times
Still probably the highest framerate you can expect with a 4090 in the center of Electro 😂
Every sound took me back, the nostalgia is insane with this video. First played DayZ in 2013 and this makes me need to revisit it.
This game was perfect
Server info is in description!
Highly recommend giving it a go!!!
The sounds hit hard man, looking at all the active servers and only seeing like 2 days servers with like 15 players at peak times also hurts. Without a doubt the greatest game I have ever played and will probably remain that way forever, and to see it so dead really hurts tbh. And to think that this game was the beginning of so many ideas for the games we see today.
Dayz epoch was the shit
Odeeee
Overpoch miss those dayz
DayZ Mod is better than SA and we all know it.
truth.
That is a fact, it just shows you that BIS ripped us all off with Stand Alone. That game is souless.
SA ?
@@janistorlopare Stand Alone.
Over a decade old mod and still on par with the "full game". Still the same building assets ( beside insides)no flight, no bikes, a long list of weapons and never could catch the atmosphere the mod had.
Its nice to go back once in a while and enjoy what put bohemia even on anyones radar.
i can see its easier to get a car and eapons
@@hermes7953 too easy But that's what made it fun easy to jump into and people more intractable.
Hearing a car coming excited a person as much as having one.
as an early mod player, this bring so much great memories of playing with my mates - thank you!
The goat DayZ. Spent thousands of hours in this mod
running home from school to smash the granny out of dayz all night long
2:30 Huge agree - im not even a mod player, but visiting a number of times to analyse in comparison to standalone, the colours of the mod has this very depressing but still vibrant atmosphere, the greens are super rich, and the shadows are dark. The sky is bright but not blinding. It's really unique and something I'd love to see replicated with colour correction in standalone. I actually think the game that had the closest to this colour grading is Miscreated, but i think that game had a clarity issue.
Parts of it carried over to the standalone versions in early alpha but they phased those out over time. Really hope future updates, or even DayZ 2 can bring some of that stuff back
@@Suparra Alpha I think has its own unique style, in particular pre-0.60 new renderer - it feels very dry and warm, and has some of that desaturated feeling but also the dark UI and serif font gave the game this grit that felt nice. Compared to 0.63 experimental, current's colour and vibe has improved a LOT but I think it's often a bit too bright and lush.
@@Suparra Arma 2 DayZ mod > DayZ Standalone > ArmA 3 Exile > ArmA Reforger DayZ Mod > DayZ Standalone 2 > ArmA 4 DayZ mod and so on
@@speedick4259 idk don’t get me wrong I love the mod, it’s one of my favorite games of all time. But I still believe the current version of standalone is just overall better in most aspects.
@@Suparrayeah Mod will always have my heart but the current build of SA is miles better than Mod ever was
The Dead Return is still on that list. That use to be my main server!!!
I recognize that loading screen when you had to log back in.
I played the fuck out of this game back in the day
go play some arma 2 day z epoch on the genesis server. Lot's of fun.
Some of my best gaming memories were from mod. I went back a couple years ago and stood up my old server and tried it again and holy crap it feels so bad now. Something about the atmosphere was better...but the jank is real. Another thing about the mod I feel is lost with standalone is how rewarding and substantial it felt setting up a small camp with a few tents and some barbwire.
In the original version, you couldn`t even melee anybody else, you had to find a gun first. gg
Haha you even made the thumbnail with that classic Frankie DayZ Mod vibe, even if it's not intentional. xD. Very good video! I honestly get kinda sad and glad too when I think about the days that I used to play DayZ mod before moving to Standalone in 2014-2018. Sadly the group I used to run with back then no longer gets online anymore. Hell my old buddy Kolton and Bunkakes that I played the mod with all the time.. WOW I remember the first time I met Kolton bro... Met in Elektro Firestation in DayZ and honestly both of us had a shady meetup but that was the thing with DayZ= It's hard to trust anyone but man the cool thing is that we engage in a good o'le fashion Axe off to the death! He ended up winning but you wanna know what he said to me before I respawned? He said bro you wanna meet up and team up with me and my friend (Bunkakes) ? It was at that moment I met two good friends and I said yes. We ended up meeting at the edge of Elektro outskirts in the hills and we all teamed and went looting. We shared a brotherly bonds for the next 4 years but then the Mod became depopulized over the years and Standalone was becoming more and more big and well, we all grew up.. Tiss the way of life. I actually hate saying this but I havn't seen both of my Comrades in arms for over 5 years since 2019 man. If it wasn't for them I wouldn't have kept playing DayZ maybe and got into Epoch/Overpoch. As always, all we can do is move on. The memories we shared and the times we had will never go away. Thanks my Brothers, whatever you both are doing I hope y'all are doing well and living your lives in peace. I hope we'll get the chance to speak to eachother again. But until then, the present comes first.
Thank you for sharing, hopefully you and the homies meet again one day
Hands down the music and enviromental sounds make A2 DayZ, as you said. Id love to see some kf the sounds passed over!
they took so fucking long to get dayz sa into a good state that i still remember the mod as the best times in dayz. there was actual loot and ammo on the map and actual people playing in the servers. dayz sa might mechanically be better. but the mod was flat out better in its heyday.
Eh and you still talking like 2013! Fucking here Fucking there^^
New fullpop server just spun up called Dayz Flashback.
Anyone else feel the Devs getting back to the mod roots?
the best game ever !
best mod !
damn this looks fun! i only started playing in 2022.
I like this more than DayZ
For an old game it still has good graphics
All this time later, and it's still making memorable experiences you craft with your mates and remember for decades to come. This mod and Arma 2 are timeless.
Click Bait!!! We never found an AN-2!!!!!!!111!!111😠
✈️🛫🛬🛩️
It is time to give the Mod a go again. I remember in 2015 there was a server that ran on a version from 2012. I wish someone ran a server like that these days. Also, clever play with the car.
im happy to see a vet was supprised to see how little of the new player base doesnt know this exist XD
How you downloaded DayZ mod, i try through dzlauncher but file seems corrupted and cannot download it fully
All through steam
You need ARMA 2, ARMA 2 operation arrowhead, and the DayZ mod on steam
@@Suparra alright ill try that
@@Suparra bro thank you very much! never thought it would be like alone product on steam
so cool
WOAH MY FAVORITE RUclipsR IS ON THA DAYZ MOD
ok bro
@@ivanbryk7395 🤓
Original and best! Epoch mod is still getting updates and interesting servers are still popping up.
theres only 1 server that has players on epoch and its fully militarized. its sad
It depends on what day and what time you are on. I have seen 10 or more people on at least 10 servers today. For me, though, number of players are irrelevant, since there is enough fun PVE activities to do on many of the servers.
@@kane2239yes but every server that reaches over 10 always seems to be pve. No standard epoch servers that have a good player base.
@@shu9489 The only way to get people to play on the server you like is to play there yourself and drag others to it. I recommend TLF Frost Survival. Hard Survival (Epoch) PvP with loads of scripts and cool new locations. Player sbeen on and off, but with a steady playerbase that server has the potential of being awesome (and I have build most of the poi:s there :) )
@@shu9489 The only way of getting players to the servers you like is to play there and make other people want to play there too.
Complaining about the player base will not help.
12:00 lmao at your boys calling you out on your underhanded tactics for extra content
@@pozkodeth LMAOOO
Yea I wouldn’t have believed me either but that was not set up at all, the timing was even crazier
The game is still scary and epic.
This server is amazing!!
19:22 You were tempting FATE with that stunt, bro, especially in Arma 2 of all games
Had to do it to em 💯
Man i loved this mod and i found it hilarious that i had to "reload" a melee weapon when I picked it up
rat
dayz standalone is an insult and a disgrace to the masterpiece Arma 2 dayz mod.
1 hour on overpoch can be like 10 hours of progress in standalone.
I could and did get a safe within 1 hour of spawn.
How is standalone better? Some parts perhaps but overall its garbage. My opinion i know but most people haven't played or experienced Arma 2 dayz, so they like standalone.
I just hate how older games are better ( still ) compared to newer games. Example COD.
Standalone has and will get better, but its too late lol. But it takes too much time. And i can't have fun that way.
The mod was just perfect. And they gave us utter trash tbh. I don't even like watching standalone that's why I'm here, trying to find recent vids on the mod.
I disagree for the most part, standalone is in a great spot (on PC). Pretty much everything in standalone is improved imo, performance, visuals, gunplay, movement. Modders have came in and fixed/added the core features the full game is missing.
As far as gameplay progression goes, different servers offer different progression speeds and mods can change that experience a lot.
I played about 3k hours of the A2 mod and have almost 5k on standalone, revisiting the mod after playing a good standalone server just doesn't compare. I love the mod but a lot of it is carried by a good atmosphere and a small amount of nostalgia.
Standalone is still a little rough around the edges but it's hit a new all time player high 3 times within the past 6 months, I think the game is truly just getting started.
arma 2 is so amazing the colors and everything is so special.
Did this a few months ago, wasn't a lot of loot 😂
Depends on what server and what mod you are playing.
I like your channel is the best in the world 🌎🌎
Thank you so much, really appreciate the kind words ❤️
the goat 🐐 🐐
Thank you men ❤️
dayz standalone was the worst game ive ever played
LOL, the crowbar shotgun
"how far its come today" not even as far as epoch
Good old game! Almost vanilla... but not good enough
i wanna go back :[
Server is still up!
@@Suparra with 5 pop?
@@secondgenlife7785 No sir, has a decent population! Had over 40 people earlier this month! www.gametracker.com/server_info/server.dayzpendulum.de:2316/
CCG arma 2 is we’re I met friends for life
lmao I cried laughinf when he couldnt kill u
Yes bro more of this please 😎 Nostalga 100
This seems like a later version than I remember playing and loot seems turned up alot.
Getting a decent gun was very difficult
Yea this is the later 2013 version I think, also this server might have had it increased a little. Still took awhile to get top tier guns though
It was consistently updated until the late 2010s/2020ish. They added weapon attachments, base building, a few more guns and vehicles, and lots of other small stuff.
Honestly this video just show that cyber bullying is a thing
The mod definitely had an atmosphere to it, I remember playing for the first time knowing nothing about Arma and it just felt...different. The way I always described it was that it felt like I was playing one of those Cabela's hunting games as a kid, except there's other players to hunt too. Chernarus is designed so well that it really feels like you're exploring a real countryside, and I always loved that. All the mock ups and concepts people make with everything looking generically "post apocalyptic" and overgrown never hit the same because it doesn't feel as real/authentic as regular, vanilla Chernarus imo.
I will say while I now love the standalone in it's current state, I still think they really missed the mark on vehicles. They feel insanely clunky to drive and it really sucks the joy out of them. I loved vehicles in the mod and they were much easier to get going, so now that they feel terrible and also are much harder to get working, I feel almost no desire to get one set up.
they ruined a2dz when they introduced buildable bases instead of tents, it forced everyone into clans and as per usual power corrupts so ends up with the admin clan hoarding everything. As a lonewolf I had so much fun in 2012 but it's almost impossible to lonewolf a2dayz now. What I don't miss (tried again a few years ago) is the dynamic lighting, you look upwards (like up a hill) and everything goes dark, you look down and everything goes too bright. Hard to aim at people. I'd love to just take arma 3 and then make a dayz mod for it based on a 2012 patch.
There was one patch which froze all the zombies too so made the game much more PvP which was really fun, once you get to know the game and access to baller guns, zombies just get in the way and become an annoyance.
Base building adds a lot of replay value and keeps the servers from fully dying, but I agree it definitely removes a lot of the soul of the game. The early days, when everyone was basically a nomad with a death sentence hanging over their head, and everything they owned was on their character, really is what made the game good.
This server in particular Is quite annoying, yeah it has a decent population but it’s mostly a few clans with massive base hoards who just fight each other in the evenings. If you kill them, they just come back with more guns/vehicles, and are suicidally brave because they aren’t losing anything if they die.
It’s not just base building that causes this, though. There aren’t any new, or even semi-new players on the DayZ mod anymore. Everyone is a 10+ year veteran and knows the game by heart. So you won’t have any interesting encounters other than killing some base hog on a loot run or getting attacked by 4+ dudes in a helicopter, or some nice guy unintentionally ruining your loot grind by giving you a bunch of high-end stuff from his stash.
Unfortunately the 2012-13 experience is dead, and can’t be recreated. With open world survival no longer being a new genre and there being dozens of similar games around, which usually solely encourage PVP or gear hoarding, anyone who plays the DayZ mod now comes into it with a different mindset than we had in 2012. The mod is still good for a nostalgia trip, but I usually just come away dissatisfied and longing for the old days.
@@andrewstickley6681 yup another part of it was that the game was brutally difficult (even the game engine would snap your legs randomly) so it pretty much forced connections and friendships, I remember being the go-between between 3 different clans, sent to trade on their behalf because they would keep killing each other, this was pre-helicopter days so a death meant escaping a coast city, often at night, then a 45 min run north to get back to tent base, so deaths were an actual big deal back then.
What a lot of people didn't realize is you could have tens inside rocks and in debug too which made it quite fun imo.
Would love more videos
Not sure if I’ll do more ARMA2 DayZ anytime soon but I got more stuff similar on the way!
so u played this game for years now and did not buy the hd models for 1 dollar in the dlc?
Which DLC is it under? I don’t see any HD mod packs?
@@Suparra I can not really tell anymore it's so long ago. In reddit they also just said DLC's but which one they did not. Just buy all of them and test each DLC. Just ask steam for refund if the DLC u bought did not give the HD models. but really, don't play this game without hd models... they look so great.
are there even people on servers anymore?
IF JUST DAYZ SA HAS VERY SIMPLE CHANGES LIKE, BASE SPAWN-CONSTRUCTION, LIKE 10X MORE LOOT, AND 10X CARS TO MOVE OR BIKES AND LESS DEAD ZONES LIKE 10 KM OF ONLY OPEN FIELD OR FOREST, AND THE IMPLEMENTATION OF TRADER TO GO AND SAVE YOUR SHIT TO NEVER LOSE IT, IN THAT WAY U CULD TAKE SOME STUFF AND GUNS QUICK AND GET IN ACTION FAST.
OTHERWISE DAY Z SA IS A RUNNING SIM FOR ME BY NOW.
Let’s use our indoor voice please
Definetly not original vanilla.
Lmao that CDA pic at NWAF. I remember that shit. Good memory. Has it been a decade already?
Yessir time flies
bets game to ever come out hands down was ahead of its time
