***Dayz: Stand Alone Thread***

So glad I bought the basic SA and not the delux supporter pack for £60 or whatever it was like the OP did :P

What a let down. Thanks BI!

lol what? Because a console manufacturer would never accept a "just barely functional" title surrounded by tons of hype and controversy in a genre that's getting a lot of attention and will surely make both them and Dean Hall a decent return... when if there are any problems at all they can easily roll-over and blame the developers...

We didn't want to just port DayZ.... Commitment to the Playstation 4 version has given us cause to expand the parameters of the overall project... developing an entirely new cross-platform renderer to bring amazing new visuals to the game...

Where to even begin with this... How could they "just port" what they already have? Its most basic functions and core requirements still don't work properly in the first place, certainly not well enough for a closed release such as is the norm on consoles...

As for expanding the parameters/scope of the project further... does it really need that when they don't even seem to be able to get one version to work properly? Ooo and they're also going to add an entirely new renderer to that list of things they promise but probably can't deliver effectively

It's comical... totally comical
 
Arrrgh server resets without warning are so annoying. Finally managed to find decent gear and ammo for the carbine and was ready to rock n' roll, then BAM server reset and dead upon re-log (killed by a zombie I assume).
 
You can glitch off me if you want. That bug still exists where you can copy someone's gear. We do it all the time. Everyone has a glicthed M4 with unlimited ammo we found :D
 
I seem to be getting a patch through steam.

Absolutely nothing useful as expected.
 
Erm... not sure where you got that from, no one has said that.
Click to expand...

Sigh... :rolleyes:

same as other companies buying out rivals.

if they have the exclusive over eggbox one and both main titles how can they lose? they cant. theyll sell crap loads more consoles and eggbox has nothing to compete with it.

its nothing to do with pc more getting one over eggbox .
Click to expand...

only reason Sony brought this is to tie up the zombie survival market on ps4.

they now have the two main titles and xbox doesnt.

Sony probably proposed an offer, which means money, which can then be used to higher a bigger team, etc., speeding up development, amongst other things.

Reading comprehension.. Work on it.

Heli crash sites. V3S truck crash sites.

Sawn off Mosin.

Craftable arrows, fixes to bow/crossbow dispersion.

Upped the number of zombies. Persistent items now working on official servers, including tents and storage.

Really? No useful features?

People bought into an early access what do you expect?

Rust was only £5 cheaper than this and what an absolute rip off THAT game turned out to be, so much of a failure infact that they've now realised they have to start over from scratch.

Thing is, when this game enters beta which I believe it will around March next year (And Dean has said he will stay until the game enters beta even if this goes past Dec) Then this will be possibly one of the greatest games ever realised on PC, and you'll all be enjoying it and forgetting how childish you were about its development.

I didn't call anyone anything. I linked a DayZ MOD related Meme which seemed apt.

Are you going to rescind your previous comment or just bypass the error and change the subject?

I'm a lovely individual, when people aren't spreading misinformation and talking utter rubbish :)

Meant, and said are unfortunately not the same thing. When we communicate with nothing but written words, you should be sure about the ones you use.

Where is all the DayZ hate coming from though? Really?

I don't understand it, Rust was released with fewer features, a completely basic game engine that stopped working after people had placed a lot of structures down and I see no hate for that game? It was £5 less.

Explain this to me.

I've over 550hrs logged in the Alpha, what a bargain for £20.

If any of you want any true information from someone who actually logs bugs and reads the forums daily feel free to get intouch with me and bypass the people on this thread.

tbh you might be right.

However your comments about Rust do weaken your point especially when it's pretty damn good.

You guys do realise that it's ok to like more than one game of each type? You don't have to pick just one, you can enjoy them all ;)
