pEar (DayZ)

Haha good idea, but I have to ask the same question - what beast PC do you have? Im running on SLI 680 and i7-3930K but I would never be able to run 4 copies... (then again im running it on a 120hz monitor...)

From my view, and this is coming from someone with 400+ hours of DayZ, I have to admit that I think that rockets way of doing things, PR wise, for DayZ SA is wrong. I think that if he keeps postponing the "dead-line" for the SA alpha release, it will damage the amount of players that will buy the game and especially the trust that the community has in rocket and his dev team. I dont want to be the one saying this but from the very few devblogs Ive seen, I have not seen the awesome improvements promised to begin with. Obviously its still in pre-alpha, but so far all Ive seen is that you can put a motorcycle helmet on. I think that rocket should dedicate more time to listen to the community and actually show us that something is in fact being done. Sure, Ive heard the line "Its done when its done", but when you say it thay way and then say "yeh the alpha will be out soon" and even "the alpha will be out in june/july", you have to think about how demotivated the playerbase gets. Hell, I truely love the mod and when I hears there was gonna be a sa, I was stoked. But all this jibberjabber and barely giving the public a slight taste now and thwn has made me loose interest. I'll buy the game but that is only because Ive spent so much time at the mod, but I really understand the other half of not so dedicated players that will just go "meh, this is all a load of horseshit." and then not buy the game. You can keep saying "it'll be good with 1000" players but I highly doubt that. A good playercount is essential if you wish for this to turn into something bigger than WarZ. I understand that they wish to make a good game, but they should show more and keep the playerbase interested and stop giving hints of when alpha is out if they cant keep that deadline. Inb4 hate posts as the internet is a place you dont post your opinion: "if u dont like u can leave".

Definitely ^. The intensity of knowing that you'll know that you'll loose all your hard-worked for gear if you were to die. Constantly looking over your shoulder and when you do spot someone you go into this "live or die" state. The adrenaline that I get when running across an open field and suddenly a bullet lands by your feet. This is something I have yet to experience in another game and cant wait to do agai in SA. Also playing with friends doing all that ^

Definitely a good upgrade.

Added! :)

@mZLY - try running around for a full day, fully geared up with multiple weapons and a backpack ++ - then come back and tell us how it went. It is the exact same principle, no-one has the stamina like the DayZ characters. Maybe making it so that running also requires stamina to a realistic extent, like whilst swimming

Well, apparently OP has no friends..

Hi! If you enjoyed the video, please rate, comment and subscribe! I apologize for the poor video quality at times, should still be watchable as it's only like that when nothing really happens. Will also fix the small audio volume issues and so on. WATCH IN 1080p or 720p! Thank you!

Highly doubt that it will even be out in June. Just the fact that the past videoblog showed that there was barely anything to be really excited about sort of gives us a clue of what will happen. Rocket will keep on pushing the release date and we will probably have it in late august/september (alpha that is). By then a lot of ppl wouldve lost interest for the game due to it being pushed back all the time. I will still buy it though ^^

But like many others are saying, June wont happen.

There hasnt exactly been a list, but rocket and his team has been giving hints of when it might be out. I would dig up sources but given the fact that Im laying in bed, miles away from any computer, simply on my phone - that wont happen.

Agreed. The mod at the moment seem to be miles off from what they have been saying about it. If rocket wants a game that is as complex as in his mind, we will have to brace ourselves for a long waiting period. It just seems to be a barely working game atm.

I know they did, but initially after that they shouldve never even hinted towards any release dates.

No offence, but this continous pushing of the release date is starting to get me frustrated. Fine, they should release a finishes game, but they shouldve never mentioned any "release-date" in the first place. Lets face reality here boys and girls, once we reach June, there wont be an alpha, simply another "oh yeh sorry but its done when its done". I reckon the alpha will first be out in late august/september.

Thank god that the animations are redone. Those are probably the things that annoys me the most in this game atm.
