Apparently DayZ will be playable on 14 machines at gamescon. Can someone confirms this. "Unless something goes horribly wrong, DayZ will be playable at gamescom multiplayer with 14 machines" https://twitter.com/rocket2guns/status/369490859101655041

So all i want to know is when is 1.7.7.2 getting released? It apparently went for review a couple of weeks back but that also got canned just like the release date for the standalone. I would rather follow progress of the MOD as we will probably get a “urm we don’t have a release date yet for the standalone” in this week’s devblog. I think if we very lucky there will perhaps be a release date next year sometime for the alpha.

I think it is a cool idea. I mention in one thread before that maybe looking at farcry 3 for hunting tips will do the job. Hunting certain animals will give you certain gun slots, and ammo packs.

bla bla bla. the game is doomed by dumbass designers and a small team. by the time the game gets released we will be in a real apocalypse

there is face camo which everyone can see. edit your player profile and select w. wallis, and look like william wallis :D

i dont care about the SA also. They hype is gone and the game will prob be shitty in alpha and beta. I think if we lucky we will have a fully developed SA in 2015 with the shitty team working on it now. the mod on arma 3 engine will prob be better than the SA anyway.

Everyone seems to be reading past the fact that ACTIVSION, ELECTRONIC ARTS and all the top gaming studios will be making something similar if not better with a full game release next year. And please don’t tell me how shit these studios are cause I fucking hate them too. The point is they now have a great idea and the recourses to milk the fuck out of the idea. And mZLY please explain why you defending the game to the death? (are you planning on getting a free copy :/ ) All I am trying to say is, they do not have the recourses or the developers to release this game in time before these other fuckers have taken over the idea. The standalones release date is irrelevant now, as we all know that we won’t be playing the complete game in the next two years.

lol i am not working on it. you asked a question, i googled it, and voila :D

Due to recent tech problems with SE3, 4 and 5 plus the continous DDoS of our german servers we've had quite the setback in the development for Podagorsk. It's our top priority to assure stable servers, but since we have failed to do that we've put everything else on hold for the time being until the performance/server issue is resolved. Podagorsk is pretty much ready to be launched any day. We've got the map ready, the spawn system, the loot system - the one thing we lack is basically server capacity. If we released Podagorsk today we'd have 1 Podagorsk server with a 40 player cap. Today we hopefully (fingers crossed) fixed SE3, 4 and 5 with new, better hardware plus a more stable setup overall. We ARE still releasing Podagorsk no matter what, but it just might take another week for us. It's coming, but it's not cause we're lazy or just haven't had the time for it, it's because this shitstorm blew up in our faces when we were deep into finally launching Podagorsk. Shit happens, now we're dealing with it, and when it's dealt with you will be enjoying Podagorsk in no-time.

dumbasses i agree

I never seen or heard of more realistic guns in any first person shooter. The guns in Arma 3 feels as close to the real thing as possible.

I must admit, I agree with you on this. It seems like the team behind the standalone is too small and inexperienced. We can admit that this game is a gold mine. Why did they not sell the rights to Bohemia Interactive and let them develop it with the Arma 3 engine? I am sure the mod made Arma 3 sell more copy’s than what Bohemia ever expected. Yes Arma 3 is still in Beta, but it is close to release. I think the main reason for this is that Dean wants to milk the cow as much as possible as this was his idea, he doesn’t want someone else making the money from his project. The hole attraction behind Dayz was the Arma game engine (realism), even with its shitty bugs. Arma 3 just feels more polished and throwing cash at the development of the Dayz build on the Arma 3 engine is the way to get the game released quicker, and competing with the big boys. The few guys that are developing Dayz will take forever to even get this project into Beta never mind Alpha. And with this shit slow developing, are we even going to see the standalone released as a game in 2015? I don’t think so, and comes 2014 there will be at least 10 other games with the same concept developed by the big gaming studios, and probably a better game in general. Dean will still be busy developing the system to wipe your ass when these others have taken over his brilliant idea. Everyone will get on the band wagon and Dean’s great idea will be dead with his design team. A game idea like this comes around once every decade, like when Doom, Quake, Half Life and World of Warcraft took over the world. Dean doesn’t even know why this mod is so popular, and he probably never expected it to be as popular. Look at those wonderful game ideas now? Everything else is copy of them.

i have seen all the videos including the latest devblog. it doesn’t look that great, but anyway i am willing to take a quality game over graphics.

you must be high if you think he doesn’t care about the money he makes? why do you think he wants to release on xbox and ps? simple answer is for the masses, and unfortunately consoles gamers are the masses. Trust me he saw the dollar signs when the mod went viral. you and i would too. The only unfortunate thing for him is, and yes I will say it again. The console lovers will not get attached to this game with the current graphics engine. It is too out dated and with the next gen consoles, which of these kiddies will play a game that looks like something released in 2009?

/cry

omf can someone please answer? IS THERE ANYONE LISTENING!!!!

I must admit i don’t see the alpa getting released this year, and the beta before 2015. The progress and build is too slow and it is taking forever. Games like Arma 3 has got more appeal to it and that taste dayz left in your mouth after a nights play has left me completely. Dean is arrogant and he thinks if he keeps bullshitting people that he will still have an audience to sell too when he gets to release. I personally think he has lost more than half of his customer base due to all the bull shit release dates, and one years development, with nothing special to show. The new devblog shows nothing spectacular and still looks pretty much the same as E3, and hell let’s admit it, it still looks like arma 2 dayz. I would much rather play arma 3 dayz with all its bugs than even consider the standalone at this point. if we are so lucky to have a release this year it will have one or two guns that can be customised. Regardless of how many guns there are, the graphics are out dated on the standalone and it actually looks shitty compared to anything released since 2010. After playing arma 3 wasteland i actually started losing interest in dayz completely. The hype is gone, thank you Dean you arrogant Aussie.

i must admit i agree 100% with you. wanting to push the game out on xbox and PS just shows you that he has the casual gamers at heart with this release. and all these bull shitters that say the team is not there to make money. please go bullshit someone else. this is all about "the team" and Dean trying to make maximum profit, and for that you need the dumbass casual gamers.

I agree with Joe Dirt.

I agree the hype is gone. there are too many people that already used the idea and that are busy making better games based on the dayz concept. By the time alpha gets released there will be 100 other fully working games based on the Dayz concept. If the game even makes Standalone after Beta people can expect the market to be flooded with games based on a this idea. The fact is that there are bigger capable studios with more professional people that can handle a project of this scale, and will take less time to develop a fully functional working game (and no I am not talking about Activision).

Like all the previous disappointing dates and goals set by Dean, this devblog will disappoint everyone yet again. Dean is good in disappointing people and in fact, that is all that he has been doing since last year with all the bull shit “expected to be released” comments he has made. I bet we will get no release date yet again.

Here. grab a nody badge and shove it up your ass. thank god for loyal supporters like you. i never dished the game, i gave my prediction on the release date which is more accurate than the crap you talking.

rofl....good one

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmubwTmbXww&feature=player_embedded so you agree with me? next year it is then......

Dood, you are a true dumbass. Your HERO Dean also said that he will update the community weekly on progress for the development. Why do you think he hasn’t said anything in the past month ? Simple reason is there is shitty progress on the development. In this week’s devblog we probably going to get something like "oh we added tampons and now when you bleed you can stick one up your asshole to stop the bleeding". There won’t be much more progress since E3 so get over yourself and prepare for next year release if we lucky.
