== General == '''Aggro''' * A term borrowed from RPGs. This is meant to indicate when AI creatures such as [[Zombies|infected]] or [[Wildlife|animals]] have entered a state of ''aggressiveness'' wherein they will chase and attack a player. '''Friendly Dance''' * A "friendly dance" involves using the {{key|Q}} and {{key|E}} buttons repeatedly to lean left and right, to "wiggle" your body in order to show someone that you do not have hostile intent. Often used by hostile players as a method of feigning friendliness. '''Infected''' * Describes the humanoid hostile enemies previously making up the citizens and military of the locations they can be found on [[Chernarus]] and [[Livonia]], which are the staple of the game. Found wandering in towns and other settlements, they will attack players when provoked or upon noticing their presence. Also known as "Zombies". '''KoS '(kay-ohh-ess)'''' * Shorthand for "kill on sight". It is the act of killing other players immediately without attempting to learn their intentions. '''Loot''' * Loot is any weapons, food, ammo, or other gear discovered -- as opposed to things you [[Crafting|craft]] or [[Horticulture|grow]]. Can also describe items carried by players, specifically when desired to be taken through robbery or combat by the player using the term. '''SA''' * Shorthand for "Standalone", as in DayZ Standalone, as opposed to the Mod version of DayZ from 2012. Since final release the game is generally now simply referred to as 'DayZ'. '''Mod''' * The original version of DayZ, built from ''ArmA II Operation Arrowhead''.
