Wait, what game did I pay for 6+ years ago? 🤔

I said 5 year mark in that post regarding development. I've been on here over 6 years but more than a year of that was during the mod. The quote, "Those of us who have been here for 6+ years", included my time here during the mod, and made no reference to the SA development time.

Reported as antagonistic. Good luck.

I know it might seem irrelevant to some people but it's 5 years, not 6. And boy, that's gotta be nice, venting all that nerd rage. Happy holidays. Maybe when it's all fixed, we'll look back at this dark period and be able to laugh it off a little.... Maybe.

This review was terrible. I got to the part where he talks about hero skin from the mod like it was part of the SA and then had to stop. Most people writing about dayz from the major outlets seem to have little real experience with the game. They've insisted there is no board or share holders who influence their decisions. We all knew they would encounter fresh game breaking bugs. Historically, every time they announce a prospective milestone, this has always happened.

There was a list of content slated as post 1.0 and after some searching the forum I'm sorry to say I cannot find the official breakdown. I can say that many of the things you may be thinking are gone are actually slated for post 1.0 release. Things that are DEFINITELY not going to be in the game that I do know for sure are, companion animals (no dogs or horses), and advanced medical (no surgery/bullet extraction). Anything else you specifically want to know about, you can ask me and I'll try to answer. There are many bugs left in DayZ, some worse than others. You can read all about magazine bugs if you take some time to read other topics addressing it (try the search function). Only the Ada (the 4x4 hatchback). More 4 wheeled vehicles will be implemented and eventually we should have 2 wheeled vehicles and aircraft.

My (somewhat belated) 1.0 release celebratory meal. Czech potato pancakes, dumplings, and goulash. (Also some bratwurst and pierogies were ordered.) šťastné svátky!

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2018/12/19/dayz-review/ ^He lost me when he started talking about bandit skins that were in the mod like they were part of the SA. Also, among himself and the multiple people he played with, none of them knew to craft torches. This is what is featured at the top of "news" in Steam for DayZ. @ImpulZ While in some respects it's a fair review, it's certainly not an educated one. I'm not sure I've ever read a review from a major outlet where the writer sounded like he actually played the SA enough to write about it properly.

@colinm9991 Nice join date.... @Jacques d'Orleans Calling someone a "fanboi" (and only your second post...)? Not warranted. I've been called a fanboi countless times, and it's always by people who haven't read enough of what I've written to judge. Read below for another fanbois opinion. Anywho, 1.0 was an obvious cash grab. Fortnite peaked, holiday season, 5 year mark, cash grab. Tons of food, guns, and ammo. Little environmental impacts, or biohazards in effect. Increased stamina. Basically PvP builds for the free weekend/release. I keep going around saying I think Enfusion is broken. I suspect the 7 month drought without patches we experienced was due to having to rework code in the engine that interns (or someone) fucked up. I think Enfusion is broken from the planning stages to right now. (***This is a theory based on my completely unfounded suspicions and should not be considered fact in any way.) Vaulting, throwing, infected AI, and persistence, should have been in the highest priority. I asked why vaulting and throwing were not prioritized, was told by @ImpulZ that he would look into that, and never was given an answer. I was even surprised my question was addressed at all. I had posed like 20 questions in the same thread that did not garner a response. Those of us who have been here for 6+ years more or less expect piece meal social engagement and lack of transparency from the devs. They want to present the guise of a small indie company but rarely seem to act the part IMO. Granted they were early access pioneers of a sort but successive small companies have launched many projects that included the player base in the process more intimately since. So I'm still where I was a year ago, waiting. Except this time the forum is overrun by Xboners and fair weather participants, mostly sort of flailing about. All sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Gorka, Berezino, Kamyshovo, Stary Sobor, Novy Sobor... and any place with military loot. I pretty much run into people almost everywhere but spawn points are an obvious one as well. Spawned in to the fishing village near Rify on a low pop server and someone was already there....

Everybody has a pet feature or bug they want in game or fixed. Bohemia has their own priorities for what gets worked on and when. Common sense should have been renamed uncommon sense a long time ago.

Bases can be randomly wiped. Persistence has not been functioning properly for quite some time. Welcome back, element.

Wake me when persistence is fixed. I'll take mine with extra butter, please.

They said that if they cannot get the new one to work in time they will roll back to the old one.

Your priorities are not equal to their priorities. Simple math.

I absolutely LOVE the crying about wipes. *holds out giant bucket just for X-boner tears* If you NEED persistence to enjoy the game, you NEED to step away until it's fixed and not just bitch and moan like you didn't know the wipes were coming. You did know the wipes were coming right, right? There's going to be lots more wipes too. I bet even after persistence is fixed, they will need to wipe to implement other fixes in the future. Can you handle that?

-sympathy Absolutely clueless. You have no idea how many wipes there have been in DayZ history because you live in a bubble, right? A bubble where only now ever existed. Not like there is 5 years of wipes for nearly every important update? The amount of time you put in? Absolutely paltry in the grand scheme. Remember camp No Lag? Nah, of course you don't. lol0olololol0ol Guess who the scroob really is....?

I'm far too salty to care what all the fair weather players think. This is nothing. Par for the course. I'm totally eating popcorn here, and it tastes just like it did for years now. Bring on 1.1....

.....I've been playing less and less lately. Lack of persistence seems to have driven many of my friends away for the time being as well. I've got tons of other games to play while I wait and I'll be back when the fixes I want are announced. I just hope Enfusion isn't so deeply flawed that the game can't be completed as envisioned. However long it takes, most of the people in this thread will likely play over the next few years at least. Even if this is a short term cash grab strategy timing wise, that nerfs a possible wave of new players interest, we'll still get most of what we came here for. Bohemia has essentially made their bed, and soon they'll have to lie in it.

RIP

This is more or less what I keep telling myself. I can look to the current player numbers of ARMA3 and hope that's the direction DayZ is headed.

Thanks devs/all! I'm looking forward to trying the latest improvements and additions when I return from traveling abroad. Personally I hope to see infected AI and interactions with infected improved greatly. Looking forward to adding feedback on that when the time comes.
