Arma 2 is dirt cheap right now and I'm kind of interested in DayZ. I know the standalone is garbage but how is DayZ mod? Should I buy it?

No, but it is dying. At the same time, however it's still worth picking up.

I sure hope so.

traders and base building are the biggest differences. i'd say it's easily the best dayz mod

I bought arma 2 complete to play Dayz but shit it impossible to get into a server. Plus there weren't that many servers in total, maybe 20 or so, and none had over 40 players. Plus I wasn't even able to get into a server (normal or dayz) because it would never get past loading the "receiving data" screen. I got Arma 3 instead and installed Epoch (similar to Dayz as Janne said) and there are a ton more servers, a lot having well over 60+ players, some over a 100 players.

 

IMO go arma 3 or possibly the stand alone Dayz, though I have no experience with that and don't know how well it's doing

Can't buy it because I need to spend the money on something else. Oh well, I'll wait for another sale.
