I'm glad the dev attention was re-directed to ARMA 3.

DayZs time has well and truly gone.

Theres still a market for it if they actually put some effort into it.

I fire it up every now and again and whats there is sort of good. I mean sort of because it still isnt a playable game, its a collection of assets and ideas that dont really work together, mixed with some bugs. The idea they had was good.

If this had released as a finished product, or only been early access for 2 years instead of constant broken promises it would have a huge player base. Its basically still a playable concept demo atm.

It will be the game my kids are into. I havent had any yet, so I reckon in about 20 years they might be playing the beta looking forward to release, and it *might* be alright

Yeah the market is still there. Last time I properly gave it a try, the ARMA 3 mods such as Exile and Epoch had more content to them. It's laughable how a small group with little funding can be leaps ahead.

I'd love to play a survival game that has the same depth as DayZ, I've not had proper adrenaline playing a game for years now. Perhaps the first few chicken dinners in PUBG when it were first out and I'm last alive, but really doesn't compare to the long fights you'd have back in DayZ.

Tarkov is my temporary gap but that's got enough issues to not warrant serious playtime either.
 
I was running up the Northern airfield when my game crashed and kicked me from the server but when I tried to log back in it wouldn't let me and I had a VAC ban on my Steam account and I haven't been able to play since.

I guess it was for the best. :D
 
Both community servers and official, I've tried raising a ticket with their support team but there's nothing they can do.

It's a shame really, I would have liked being around IF they eventually fixed all of the issues.
 
What a time to get it eh. I've not been able to get it, Battleye Client not responding, yet I shall persist! I had a 3 second run around before it kicked me.

Movement feels nice at least, spawned with a rifle.
 
I dont hold any grudges to DayZ even though it never lived up to my hopes, I still put in a fair shift with friends and had some of the best gaming moments ive had.

Id love it to come back to prominence, but I fear that ship has sailed... I know I couldnt get my group back playing, so those days are long gone. Still would be nice to see and play the final product one day, as a game we all hoped it would be.
 
When I first started playing the RP aspect was brilliant, players would take others captive and try to concur cities with big groups but it turned quickly into killing on site due to the lack of resources and food.

Yeah the early days were great fun, similar to H1Z1 as everyone was finding their feet and the 'end game' of kill on sight wasnt the immediate requirement.

This is actually a very good point. The hype was very very high when it went alpha years ago but they'e rreally missed their opportunity. It seems to be struggling along when what should have happened was more investment to get it out the door while it still had a good rep, not the disastrous one it has now. It could end up being the best game in the world but I still think it will sell badly.
