***Dayz: Stand Alone Thread***

why because arma 3 sucks ? :D

even dean has stated that arma 3 and arma engine doesnt suit dayz. its clunky he has said that himself ! arma 3 is poor that wont be fully optimized for probably 2-3 years ! you know that.

so they made there own blend and its coming together nicely in dayz standalone. people will knock it who cares ? :p

I have a feeling DayZ Stand Alone is way worse than ARMA 3 and at this rate will take 10+ years to be fully optimized...
 
Although frustrated with the time its taking I'm still looking forward to it. I'm pretty sure most here will still buy it even with all the comments.

Game development is a very lengthy process. We have a cycle of 6 months, that's using the same tech and for a simple hand held game. Maybe if Dean had said from the beginning he planned to redo most of it instead of the drawn out of process of disappointment.

I'll only buy it if it's well received by the gaming community. I won't be taking any notice from the sycophantic frequenters of the DayZ official forums.

On there there's a hell of a lot of Rocket worshiping.

I'm more worried about having nothing to play/look forward to if days sa fails.... The whole gaming market is rubbish atm

I'm looking forward to SA & ESO.

Keeping my time occupied with games like Van Helsing at the moment, but really want SA :)
 
Everyone who complains about its release date would be the ones complaining if it was released without being finished ala BF4.

True - very true in fact - but the current state/delay is taking the michael. And I would put a tenner that even the beta and final release will have huge bugs
 
I can see SA being a failure as an experience, but it will sure as anything make a lot of money for BIS.

Rocket should have released SA the same way that Arma 3 was, two builds, one being dev with the other being a stable build..

I am sure people would have understood, and BIS would have had a larger sales figure than they will have when the standard release appears. Which by now will be in 2014!

Nope. Since they are releasing it as a alpha first aren't they? I won't have any complaints if I buy into the alpha and its buggy/not finished.

Its to be expected from an alpha/beta. Most people treat them like early access to the finished game though so maybe.
 
There are an epic ton of complaints about current Dayz everytime it gets patched, let alone zombies, and Dean has always maintained it was Alpha from the start.

Why does it suck? genuinely interest to know your opinion/reasons?

The SA doesn't look at all good from what i've seen, to be honest, i think it looks a bloody mess, the game is meant to be a standalone, yet from everything i've seen, it still looks like a mod, and a poor one at that considering the time it's taken, don't get me wrong, i want it to be great, but i just can't see it happening now.

DUH because DG says it sucks!!

But yeah lets move on before the thread gets locked AGAIN because of DG
 
Tbh I don't even think I will be buying it now. We have been waiting far too long and the moment has gone for me.

I have never seen such a messed up progression of any game in my life. Rocket can stick it up his ****.

According to some people this is the normal way for dev's to work. Snigger
 
Seems to be more like his hobby than a product, and if he finishes it he will have nothing left to do.
Anyway, I think he has missed the momentum for this market, although no doubt the die hard fans will buy it nonetheless, if it ever gets released ofc. :P
 
I still enjoying the mods so much that im not too bothered about the main game now.

I'll be getting it of course, but im content with the games as is (primarily epoch) and its got a lot of life left in it for me anyway.

I understand people getting upset, but a lot of work has been given primarily for free for a long time. I spend much more time on the Dayz mod than any paid for title ive bought in the last 12 to 18 months.
 
Pepole will buy it regardless. Im hoping its a return to vanilla dayz without all the hacking, because thats where i left it, but im sure there are lots whose perception of the game has grown with their playing of the many Dayz mod mods out there. theyre not going to be satisfied with a return to the original premise no matter what.
