So basically, Day Z is being revamped? Copyright issue should be a minor problem in this case as all it takes is contacting the owner, asking permission and handing them over a wad of cash. BI should already have the contacts (and possibly some partnerships) from the resources used in Arma II. Copyright issues should be identified and solved at the Pre-Production Planning stage of development (for any kind of medium) unless something pop-up like the Interplay VS Bethesda incident which we have yet to hear about. Apparently Day Z is near release and if copyright issues are still a problem at this stage then perhaps someone might want to fix the leaky gas pipe in their office or covertly silence the journalist. Oh, please. You can do better than that. This is not one man but a development team doing this, an experienced development team working on the same game, on a smaller and simplified version of the Arma II. Day Z was officially announced back in early August with interests spanning back into July. As far as development goes, they've got most of the work done from them apart from the goals and objectives which seems to be out of whack, at least from the public point of view. It's easy to say that there's going to a major (big) update once it is out. I really see this as becoming a 2013 relelase...Pointing out the obvious here.
