This is a "Serious online shooting game"? Hmm... Good to know! Sweet! Good to know that you don't care about something so trivial as this! Sounds like someone will be "forced" to have a gender reassignment to me! Enjoy your new virtual genitals and your "patently unfair small hitbox"! Hard times indeed!

To be sung!

I think a lot of you are creating a false dichotomy here. It is quite possible to put out a stand alone game that is not some evil monstrosity of corporate blandness. As unique as DayZ is in what it does, there are plenty of other examples of interesting games that are not some all consuming blandfest of focus group bullshit that are put out all of the time, particularly on the PC. Hell, ARMA2 would be a great example in and of itself along with many, many others (Oddly enough, I came to DayZ from Mount & Blade: Napoleonic Wars (another great example) thanks to videos from CHKilroy). Personally, I would be quite happy if DayZ became a stand alone game. I would love to see where it would go with the ability to shape it's engine for itself rather than trying to fit itself into something else. Whatever transpires, I am glad that I found DayZ, and I am looking forward to going along for the ride.

God help that one poor Mixe dude, that has dreamed of playing something like DayZ his entire life, if the servers were segregated by language! ;)

Top idea! Would like to see more server admins adding their servers to the list.

Not sure about the backpack, but we definitely need a way to trap the gas tanks of our cars. That and a dog. And a friendly gyropilot... Hmmm....

Well put!
