After playing both the arma 2 mod and the standalone i have to say dayz is nothing but one problem after another. time wasted, countless glitches discovered with no fix in sight. graphics are becoming out of date. so i think the dayz team need to take a hard look at the money they have gotten from this version and start from scratch with the arma 3 engine. the game already comes with a sandbox game mode, there is a mod for zombies already. im sorry to say that this game is only going to cause head aches over the next 2-3 years before they have a workable version. and i say workable as in mechanics of the game will stay the same. for ie. dayz S.A. character mechanics are dull and they player model just goes prone when killed. arma 3 has rag-doll affects and 10x more player emotes then dayz S.A. im just saying dayz needs some freshness. i love the game and what is has to offer as a type of game that it stands to be but i grow tired and see no hope in sight for the game that it could be with a different game engine.And to continue this rant. someone is working on a port for the Dayz mod to be ported from Arma 2 to Arma 3. i have to say that i think once everyone see's what that mod can bring to Arma 3 that Dayz standalone will be old news Also posted on the Steam game forums........
