***Dayz: Stand Alone Thread***

With a background in software development i appreciate the work that has gone into this alpha release. It wasnt a small task converting the mod and also rewriting entire areas to work differently adopting the new architecture.

But not only that some areas of the game have been totally reworked! Blood chemistry, disease and sickness, food, item damage and degradation.

Only quoted some, I for one totally understand the work gone into the extra areas and they are nice indeed. BUT pretty much all the old mod glitches/bugs exist which imo should have been squashed before they started work on the rest. The biggest two things for me not including the old bugs/glitches is no tents and zombies do no respawn. These should have been fixed last year imo.

Anyway Happy Xmas to you and your family m8.
 
Is this a one shot kill anywhere on the body? I take it this has replaced the enfield.

I had to shoot someone chasing me with an M4 with one, he took the brass to the chest and was forced to skulk off to combat log while bleeding - so I would say not a guaranteed kill with it on one shot, no.

While I'm here the different butts on the M4 are interesting, the 'more comfortable, faster moving' version deffo increases twitch movement, even while still... I kinda like that.

So many fun stories to tell, cba tho :)

Merry Xmas to all survivors.
 
Only downside to Standalone over Mod version is there far more "kill anyone on sight" idiots even killing newspawns with nothing. Ruins the game.

this is a early alpha = nothing much added yet. so once you have guns with no zombies or much of them only thing to do is shoot people.

as the game progresses more things will be added like base building, vehicles maybe missions other things like skills (maybe skyrim type) .

calling people about how they play dayz is also a bit hypercritical just because its not how you play. there is no right way.;)
 
Really been liking the game so far and they only need to fix a few major things (zombies, melee combat, dead bodies) before it's in a playable state for me whereby adding content will be the main thing.

The thing that annoys me the most is the KoS mentality which just ruins some of the fun for me. I guess you have to be in a big group so it's not such a problem and you can gt on with robbing people etc without as much fear.

Might hop on the MBS/OCUK server in a bit.
 
They need to fix the dead bodies, its spoiling the game for me at the moment. There is nothing worse than killing a geared player, going over to claim your reward and nothing being there. Apart from that its pretty good so far, needs cars though.
