***Dayz: Stand Alone Thread***

If the bug that was recently dealt with is verified, the game will launch this week. My guess has always been the 17th and the weekends activities have more or less confirmed it. It's finally time.
 
Just had a quick go on vanilla, showing a friend who has never played it what it's all about. 1st person only, pitch black night, the heavens open and starting with nothing. He died repeatedly, the last death being from the result of trusting someone he shouldn't have but he absolutely loved it! Hopefully this version will recapture some of that magic for the ones who have played it for a longer time.

I'm also hoping that it will be made even harder to survive. Has there been any word on a levelling system as such? Things like being hopeless at gutting animals/starting fires to begin with and you SLOWLY get more skilled every time you do it. Perhaps a system where reading books or getting taught from other skilled players could be implemented down the line. As an "outdoors" type myself I would love to be able to play a survivalist type of character, sleeping under my ridge-line lean to and trip flares set around my harbour area!

Oh gawd....I'm getting excited for this now. CHOO CHOO ALL ABOARD.

Please explain how you came up with the 17th Dec for a release date a year late?

With the hype that has been building for the last few weeks, when the release looked imminent, i thought they would sneak it out before the xmas steam sale. The 17th was what i thought most likely. Obviously i am not saying i came up with that date a year ago, Nostradamus i am not.
 
I would rather he took his time and it worked.

I really look forward to it if it actually works, there's nothing out there now that interests me and BF4 is getting boring really fast.
I just hope it doesn't get too "real life" and not "zombie apocalypse" with regard to everyone having bases in locked compounds.
