So many cheaters in this game battleye has no idea who to ban 😂🤔🤷‍♂️

Even in a free trial Period and during a stay at home order time of quarantine , The steam charts dipped 2 thousand players less 🤣 take notes devs : you are doing something wrong if you can’t even get up to the peak players you had years ago (45k players) while in “finished 1.0 state” during a free trial period that’s smack dab in the middle of a quarantine period when everyone’s inside playing games ... Just goes to show how mismanaged this project has become, you shouldn’t even need to do a free weekend if dayzs features and gameplay loops speak for themselves players would GLADLY be paying 50 dollars for the game .. but they aren’t and you had to make a free trial period during a quarantine time 😂🤣👌🏽

Find another game to play bro , this game is only worth a few hundred hours if you realize the devs aren’t going to be giving us the features we deserve . i wasted 2k+ hours on this game with another 1k of fun hours in the mod , most of my time in standalone was running around doing nothing but starving and freezing and I only played so much because the devs kept promising more and more which 45% of they didn’t even get to and have no date of when they are going to add these features (zombie hordes , advanced soft skills , barricading , aerial vehicles , 2 wheeled vehicles , contaminated zones). Broken servers , glitchy game , zombies aren’t a threat , pvp is useless and only for loot / cheap thrills (no reason to save someone because no soft skills that matter) and on top of this we have a dev team that refuses to give us dates on the content they OWE US the content they said would be in when we were all on the fence of if we wanted to buy dayz sa or not way back in December of 2013 ... if I had known how the devs would manage this game I never would have supported them and bought the game . They should have feature completed the game back In alpha and not rushed through the end of the alpha and through the beta because they clearly have more gameplay loops to add and the game as is just isn’t deep enough to sink into beyond just pvping and exploring (especially if you’ve played through every patch like I have, this games content just isn’t beefy enough compared to what the devs said it would be years ago).

The reason why everyone shoots is because no one has soft skills so there’s no reason to save that person that may be a medic , or a pilot or a weapons expert . You see , long ago when the dayz devs actually wanted to complete their game and make it more than just a run and gun simulator , they had the idea to add advanced soft skills so that you had to practice everyday your skill like medic , pilot , car mechanic , etc so that you could be a valued part of the team or possibly even be spared by your enemy for your useful skills . Why the devs stopped working on this feature we will never know ; I’m assuming Bohemia told dayz devs they Needed to push to 1.0 because they skimped our alpha short and pushed through beta in less than a few months , which in turn probably made them cut the scope of the game even if they can’t admit they did - very stupid decision and it only hurt their future chances of adding things like soft skill. Now here we are Almost done with the first quarter of 2020 and the devs are completely silent on their future plans to make this game more than just a crappy survival shooter , worst part is we won’t hear anything about the future of this game until tbeir entire team is done working onnthe next money maker (probably arma 4) . It’s sad to see the devs chugging along for years and then see them stop dead in their tracks at the most pivotal time in the development when things can really get done quickly . Seems they don’t care to finish the scope of the game they laid out years ago for whatever reason, probably because they’ve already made 10+ million dollars off of the pc crowd and a few more million off of the gullible console crowd that should have seen how lazy the devs were and how inactive they were at securing dayzs future and they should never have bought Into the game to support the devs . I did because these devs were honest and transparent back in the day , but now they are just dragging this project along and stringing us along with it .

Escape from Tarkov has all of their weapons , attachments and military equipment as the right names and manufacturers , they are an indie game studio who certainly isn’t as rich as Bohemia and they paid for the licenses . bohemia and dayz devs are just cheap and would rather WE foot the bill than they do . Their all about immersion except for when it costs them money .

Yup keep pretending you aren’t the brownshirts of the dayz forums my man .. you’re TOTALLY not trying to stifle the naysayers or anything while your fat cat bosses sit on the Millions we gave them without even giving us a freaking roadmap for 2020.. It’s honestly sickening seeing as I was a dedicated fan just years ago believing all the devs words that we would have a feature complete game by 2018 , and then 2019 and then oops we don’t do roadmaps anymore in 2020 .... now with hackers infesting the game more than Tarkov 2 years ago there’s little to no interest in playing this game when I can just play any of the dozen other survival games just like it . Dayz should have been the unique forefront of the survival genre , after all dayz mod was great , but all of the dayz devs from 2013-2016 have either left the project or went silent so I should have known original scope of the game was abandoned so they could make quick money off of the teeny bopper console crowd. Goodbye helicopters , soft skills , quarantined zones and barricading - we hardly knew ye.

Have you even been keeping up with this long winded 7 year development ? They haven’t even kept their promises from day one . Where’s helicopters ? Where’s zombie hordes ? Where’s contaminated zones ? Where’s barricading ? Where’s advanced soft skills ? Why is this game still a shallow run and gun simulator with NO AERIAL vehicles when the dayz mod had all these things 8 years ago? Why do people still give this shit game a chance? I have about 3 k hours spent in this game and the mod put together and I have to say I’m so disappointed at how these devs worked their game . We thought over three years ago we’d have a feature complete game - but yet we are ALMOST 7 YEARS INTO DEVELOPMENT AND WERE STILL NO CLOSER TO FULL FEATURE THAN WE WERE 2 YEARS AGO . Just let that sink In people , 7 years , over 10 million in sales and they can’t even finish the goddamn game , but they CAN charge for a shitty map that looks like vanilla chernarus , and they can and do ban hammer people like me who dislike how the game was managed . We should have had a feature complete game by 2020 , But they screwed us and couldn’t even add aerial vehicles - something that was done being animated and coded over 2 years ago btw . Steam charts are dropping again due to hackers , no visible progress or roadmap for 2020 , and this is all in a time when millions are staying at home during quarantine so if anything numbers should be going up ... devs you better give us something soon or you can kiss 20k concurrent players GOODBYE come 2021 as you see your shallow game die due to lack of updates and visible progress towards what it was supposed to be (hint: it was supposed to be more than this shallow hacker infested shoot em up).

They haven’t even created the game they promised almost seven years ago now , you think they care about hackers ? They already have our money , they don’t care about the future of our interest in this “game” (aka walking simulator with run and gun features + some hackers).

Wow so 2020 is all about bug Fixing and adding things you’ve removed ? Broken limbs ? Really ? This game is so far from what it’s supposed to be , what we all gave money to in 2013 to see come true. list of things still crucial to be added to dayz that hasn’t been mentioned in months if not years : soft skill system (You scrubs are just gonna put in the icons and not the actual feature ? Ok buddy !) contaminated zones - talked about over 2 years ago , but never again helicopters / aerial vehicles 2 wheeled vehicles barricading zombie hordes for actual Pve instead of dying to glitches . Overall dayz has been a great disappointment over The last two years in terms of promised content that will make the game so much more deep. If you vouch for dayz in its current state as being a full game you are either so obsessed with the idea of dayz that you can’t look past your own hand , or you are addicted to the PvP - the only thing that’s solid in this game . Add the damn features you roadmapped YEARS ago and STOP bug fixing until you have all the goddamn features in the game .... you people have already forgotten how SHORT beta phase was And that’s not acceptable seeing as we are basically STILL In beta phase . Might as well go back to alpha so the development makes sense . alpha = add all features beta = fix all features 1.0+ = all features should be in and fixed , and some small updates should be applied weekly. You dayz devs have blurred the lines of development phases far too much , and now you have a brainwashed player base willing to play a game that’s exactly the same game it was 2 years ago in alpha . Go ahead and add all the guns you want , this game will be a fraction of what it should be without soft skills , hordes , aerial vehicles etc . At this point escape from Tarkov has more interesting features and it’s not even a full open world game XD

We used to have bows and the ability to create them , just one of the many things dayz devs took out because of "engine" issues. They said it would come back with the new engine but alas, here we are 2+ years into the implementation of the new engine and still so many things are broken or not implemented (again). The funny thing is theres so many READDED things in the patch notes and the devs hardly recognize it as *READDED* they just say "added" or some other synonym of that word as if they want us to believe that half of the things are completely new when in reality they are being readded. Unfortunately devs are focused on capitalizing on console copies and paid dlc instead of constantly forging towards the feature complete , major-bug-free Dayz that we originally bought and supported the game for so many years for ; fighting against leagues of hackers , scam-claimers and dupers. Queue the "different teams make those console versions and dlcs" response, but then realize we are still playing the same dayz we were last christmas: "1.0X" version with plenty of bugs. Suddenly those different teams arent making a difference in the speed of development anymore.... Someday Dayz will be the game that it should be , but for at least the next half year or more were looking at the devs stumbling over themselves to fix the inventory and car issues (cars and/or your character warping away at reset if you dont get out, if the server crashes while driving the car sometimes gets eaten by server, etc) while we essentially are playing a robust version of an open world deathmatch game with some neat survival and vehicle features added atop.

Glad to see youre dedicated to squashing this bug that has been reoccuring for more than 4 years... wait didnt the new engine promise to cut out all these bugs and make patching and iterating new features easier? sure doesnt seem that way to me. I love this game , and i play it far more than all the weekend warriors here (10k hours between the standalone and the mod) but i hate to see it mismanaged like this. You can fool all the new people into thinking youre a well oiled machine , but to someone like me whos been a day one fan boy i only see more disappointing long breaks with incredibly frustrating bugs that shouldnt be present in a ("finished") 1.0 game. I will continue to play , but if we dont see soft skills , barricading , aerial vehicles and all the huge talking points that we invested in your game for by 2020 , then all faith in you will be lost : at least by the vets and day ones ... you will keep your new console crowd , but what are they worth when they are content to just shoot eachother on the coast until this game is shut down? If anyone remembers promises of picking up your pilot friend to fly your heli to your medic friend so he can perform surgery on your electrical engineer buddy whilst avoiding hordes of zombies and contaminated zones. then dont let these devs constantly drag their feet and lets instead, push for something greater than this mess we have now; as what we have now is nothing but another shallow PVP deathmatch with a lot of fluffy survival things added on top. We need soft skills to create a player economy, we need aerial vehicles because this was the heart of the dayz mods vehicle heirarchy , and we need hordes of zombies (although we are getting close on that one i will say), and ; lastly we need these random legacy bugs to be quashed that this team cant seem to get rid of despite being on the new holy grail of engines which devs constantly touted was going to solve so many of their engine issues.....

Source is being on these forums longer than a year bud ... they used to communicate with us all the time and anyone who’s been here from the start will know that I’m telling the truth . Too bad there’s so many damn blinded fans here ready to throw money at an undeveloped game that’s still missing many crucial features .

They don’t care about us OGs that bought this ridiculous game back in December of 2013 - they only care about squeezing more cash out of us . cars are still broken , zombies and AI are still fucked , soooo many features are still missing and there’s no patch in sight that seems to add them, the development roadmap was taken offline so we can’t tell them they are behind (again) on their deadlines . This game has become an absolute mess and the only reason it isn’t dead right now is the fanboys that were dragged into it in the last year or so . These super fans will burn out just like I did if these “devs” don’t push out the rest of their features they promised , fix the damn servers and the vehicle issues , fix the ai issues including wolves and bears , and deliver us the solid survival experiences they touted about years ago . Why did we wait patiently for years for them to “create a whole new engine that can do so much more for dayz “ when now we don’t see Half of those features that we were waiting on the new engine to implement, and the game still operates worse in some instances than it did with the old RV engine? Just a few features you people promised us that you still haven’t delivered: soft skills to create a player economy of jobs like medic / pilot etc , zombie hordes roaming + dynamic , aerial vehicles / 2 wheeled vehicles + boats , less than lethal weapons , lots of weapons like m249 still not in despite being teased years ago on trello , shooting from vehicles / unique vehicle damage states , static objects affected by vehicle physics , rear view mirrors (picture in picture , eugen harton sent a tweet a LONG time ago stating “picture In picture : coming soon to a rear view mirror In chernarus”) , advanced medical system / surgery , birds , restoring electricity to certain towns , contaminated zones and their effects , survivor game (don’t really care about this POS but it’s another broken promise / failure) , and many many more that I can’t think of or has already been officially chopped from the list of backlogged features . Such a sad fucking time to be a dayz fan , I used to be a super fan back when all these dreams were simply not achievable due to the old engine ; but alas , were now 2 years into the NEW ENGINE and all we see from the devs is some identical map pushed on us for 15 bucks when really all we want is this large backlog of missing features to be added and the already existing mechanics like vehicles to be fixed and fleshed out completely . Come on dayz devs , you used to actually work hard on this game and now you’ve essentially stopped all work on it and instead pump out shitty paid DLC that literally no one asked for (and you said it would be free years ago , another lie).

I’m never gonna pay for this dlc , because before the dayz devs lost all integrity they said this (and all dlc) would be free . im not ever going to bend the knee to these buttholes , especially when they haven’t even completed the goddamn base game yet . Dont let them have an inch or they will take a mile folks - I wish all of you were strong enough to realize this . Boycott this stupid game until they add the features that made dayz mod so great. . Still needed features already promised : helicopters , barricading , contaminated zones , 2 wheeled vehicles , zombie hordes , dayz namalsk map for free , shooting from vehicles , restoring electricity and power to cities , soft skills so players can become Medics and pilots etc etc , many weapons including less than lethal weapons , advanced medical system and many many many more features I have forgotten about .

Should be free , but hey why hold yourself to your word nowadays when you can just make all the normies pay up that weren’t here for alpha and all their glorious (now broken) promises! Devs from 2016: “all dlc will be free” same devs from 2019: “we don’t know how much Livonia will cost” 😂😂😂😂😂👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

This one is just an asset flip , not gonna buy it especially when there’s so much work to be done on the core game like balances , bug fixes and at least a dozen new features promised for years . Barricading , Helicopters , 2 wheeled vehicles , contaminated zones , shooting from vehicles , restoring power to towns for lights and other things , less than lethal weapons , zombie hordes /dynamic roaming horde , soft skills such as mechanic / medic / pilot etc , weed/alcohol/tobacco for currency and RP items . Theres probably more that I'm forgetting , but ya we REALLY needed the copy/paste map with no new features .. I’m SOOOO GLAD we spent so much development time , money and focus on it ! -_-

The reason why this is a cash grab has NOTHING TO DO WITH LOW/HIGH QUALITY, so your massive run on sentence really is a moot point , and you could have saved that time for something like practice of grammar/punctuation. The reason why this is a cash grab (the reason being the thing you completely ignored and glossed over in that ugly ass run on sentence paragraph you just spawned) is that the devs previously stated all DLCS will BE FREE for those that supported and purchased the alpha .... now that they have a bunch new people they are backpedalling and hoping no one remembers their lie . This is just another way for them to grab our cash , again it has nothing to do with quality and everything to do with the devs promise that THEY MADE THEMSELVES TO US , and that THEY BROKE BY TELLING US THIS WILL BE PAID DLC . If any of you people had any dignity left you would agree with me, but go ahead enjoy your 20$ paid dlc that looks almost identical to chernarus in many ways ... enjoy your cash grab while it lasts cuz if they are selling one DLC you damn well know they will sell more DLCs , this game is turning into arma - you can’t enjoy the full game unless you shell out tons of money for all the (should be free according to the devs) dlcs. @mods : I see you like to edit “personal attacks” out of peoples posts , so why don’t you go about 6-7 posts above this one and view Kajmak64bit2’s comment aimed towards Nick Sample : ”go cry somewhere else, don’t Litter the forums” “you should uninstall and delete your forum account because you are useless” You devs gonna defend his personal attacks because he kisses your ass, but you’re going to moderate personal attacks of people who don’t agree with your silly game like the post above with @Improviso0? Your corrupt favoritism is showing , and it’s almost just as disgusting as the lie about free dlc you recently told us and enforced .

Ya and NOONE seems to care that the devs lied about never making us pay for DLC . The devs legit said over and over and over again for the first 5 years that we would NEVER HAVE TO PAY FOR DLC IF WE BOUGHT THE ALPHA . They lied straight to our face , and now they will delete any posts that show the normies what happened . @KajMak64Bit2 Livonia IS SURELY A CASH GRAB , why would they make us pay for it if it WASNT just a slimy cash grab ? Stop being so blind , I paid less for star citizen then I have for Dayz now with the admissions of these people backpedaling forcing us to buy another dlc ... and people say SC is a scam ? Pffft . not only have the devs lied to long standing vets of the community of Dayz mod and the alpha of Dayz sa (without them Dayz stand-alone wouldn’t even exist) but now they are creating TOXIC community members like kajmak64bit2 who , without any ground to stand on , VEHEMENTLY protects the devs poor decisions , but you really can’t defend a lie can you ? Please , any other vets who care , chime in and tell these devs how UNFAIR It is to be LIED TO about a dlc . They said for years we would get it for free , why the hell are they changing their stance now with no apology post or post to tell us why they decided to go back on their promise ?

You People said YEARS ago that there would be NO PAID DLC AND WE WOULD GET ALL FUTURE CONTENT FOR FREE . why the hell are you backpedaling on that now ? You haven’t even finished the game , where’s contaminated zones , where’s helicopters + 2 wheeled vehicles , where’s shooting from windows (trello post 2 years ago shows this as “coming soon”), where’s soft skills like medic / mechanic / pilot, where’s less than lethal weapons , where’s roaming zombie hordes , where’s barricading ? You have SOOOO much to add and yet you’re telling us (those that supported you since December of 2013) that we have to pay AGAIN for a new map that surely everyone will be playing ? Thanks SO MUCH for going back on your words , and thanks SO MUCH for not even feature completing your game before forcing us to pay more to unlock features and content . Incredibly disappointed in these decisions , and I’m truly not sure if i want to play Dayz until we at least get the aforementioned features that we are still missing. I can’t even state how disappointed I am with the “new devs” way of things , where’s the integrity anymore ?

Will you ever give us the content we were supposed to receive, before you decided to squeeze out the miscarriage that was 1.0 ? It was devoid of crucial features marking dayz as “just another survival game” instead of the revolutionary game it was supposed to be . Theres still time , but the question is [bohemia], what are you doing wasting time on a map when we still need (helicopters , 2 wheeled vehicles , barricading , contaminated zones , hordes , soft skills ; medic / pilot / etc, less than lethal weapons , weed / alcohol / tobacco as currency, and much more)? Obviously we appreciate a new map but at this point we either think you can’t deliver on what you promised so many years ago , or you wont due to some unseen reasons... Either way it’s like waiting for an alpha to finish; but so much more painful knowing you already cut our alpha/beta short in favor of some quick Christmas bucks .

They just need to finish the damn feature log before they start bug fixing . This is how ACTUAL game developments work but of course They sold our alpha AND beta far too short so they could sell out a bunch of Christmas copies (soulless move right there). so now here we are , half of us are beckoning for the features that is supposed to make dayz different from all the other survival games out there (helicopters , 2 wheeled vehicles , barricading , contaminated zones, actual zombie hordes , soft skills to allow us to become medic , heli pilot , mechanic , etc) and the other half is asking for random ass balances that won’t really make any difference unless we get the aforementioned features that are still missing . Add the features I said above and THEN work on bug fixing and balancing because these features will add even more bugs and imbalances especially with pve and pvp so there’s truly no reason to balance until after it’s all put in .

lol! almost 6 years later and major bugs and glitches are still present , so much so in fact that we can’t get the rest of our beloved promised features in game yet 😕 helicopters where art thou

But that new enfusion engine fixed EVERYTHING , how could you POSSIBLY be having problems with the AI? Gotta confuse the player base , amirite babe ?

Yes because in a post apocalypse the ONLY important thing is not getting water on yourself .... this is a pretty stupid argument but more freedom is always better, why would any of you want to be camera locked when you perform any action in the apocalypse ?

We don’t even have helicopters or bikes yet , 2 huge features touted to be in game far before release was supposed to happen but of course they cut that for post 1.0 and of course here we are without them still at 1.05 ... rafts would be amazing but at this point heels are being dragged so damn hard I would be amazed to just see helicopters by 2020.
