More than an year ago I was (and still I am) playing a lot of the wonderful DayZ however I was having the feeling zombies are the only unrealistic thing of the game therefore I became more and more curious to see how would it be if there were soldiers instead of zombies and the whole concept of insurgency and guerilla warfare. Since I couldn't find a lot of such survival experiences that were not having zombies I started one day coding a brand new mission based on the DayZ mod and ever to this day kept adding stuff to it.
At some point a friend was really interested to play this multiplayer so with a few modifications it turned out this was fun as well in CooP mode so I kept that mode also (however I did not get the chance to test it with more than two players).
Initially I just coded&adapted it for my own use, however since it finally starts to catch some shape and I had countless of hours of fun playing it (and many more of coding), sounded like a good idea to share the mission so others can enjoy.
There are still plenty of things that might not work or cause issues so please be gentle and patient if you find bugs. It is very much and will be for long time in alpha state so use it at your own risk.
Also I would like to thank all the different script, mission and adons creator that I got inspired from their work and reused scripts or part of the code. All the credit goes to them, I just put them all together in hopefully a fun to play mission. I hope I managed to give credit on main page to most if not all.

Alex ,
ReplyDeleteMany, many years later ... I find this mission one of the most interesting I've played.
My only real gripe is, AI can sometimes spawn right in your face.
Secondary issues, some things are a bit outdated as far as dayz code included.
The electrical grid mission doesn't work past the first repair.
Any chance you'll pick up and fix the Arma2 version again?
