boxman80 964 Posted December 6, 2012 (edited) I suspect it will be delayed a while yet if Rockets recent statement on the developers blog is anything to go by.... If they are still making decisions to core architecture of the game such as it being server based now, I'd say we're still quite a way off a playable release.

steve t 32 Posted December 6, 2012 (edited) OP....The more hype there is about the release date, the greater the probability there will be of a successful launch.Having said that, the opposite can be said if the team does not deliver the product within the expected time frame. There has to be a balance between the quality of the product and the hype built up around it. They need to keep their fans interested and the gaming market has a fickle clientele. They promised news, after their assessment this week and they should keep delivering on their promises. As the Developer referred to in the last blog entry, (We are still working towards a target for an initial foundation before the end of the year. But we will slip this date if needed, we will not compromise the project for the short-term gain of meeting this date. The reasons for any slippage would be publicly discussed, and would most likely represent a failure personally on my part to plan correctly. We will be assessing the results of our major architectural changes at the end of next week, and reporting the results to everyone when we have assessed that.)

boxman80 964 Posted December 6, 2012 (edited) OP....The more hype there is about the release date, the greater the probability there will be of a successful launch.No necessarily, it's often the case that things rarely live upto anticipation. The more hype, the bigger the expectation and then the harder the fall! I recon Day Z Stand Alone will be a good game though, even in it's early stages,but I do think some people on these forums have some really high expectations and I dare say some of them will be the ones making cry threads shortly after release!We are still working towards a target for an initial foundation before the end of the year. But we will slip this date if needed, we will not compromise the project for the short-term gain of meeting this date. The reasons for any slippage would be publicly discussed, and would most likely represent a failure personally on my part to plan correctly. We will be assessing the results of our major architectural changes at the end of next week, and reporting the results to everyone when we have assessed thatAs I said earlier, it's pretty late in the day to be making changes to the game's architecture, surely this is something you do when you start the project....? If it needs to be done then fair enough, but it is going to have an effect on the release date though, it's a pretty big deal I'd say!

mzltv 2281 Posted December 6, 2012 (edited) I heard that it could slip to 2013!?I need to stop going into these threads; literally make my blood boil.NEWSFLASH: YOU'RE REPEATING 2 WEEK OLD NEWS. Edited December 6, 2012 by mzltv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boxman80 964 Posted December 6, 2012 Lets face it, the target date was "before the end of the year" a few months back, i genuinely don't believe they intended it to be literelly the last few days though so I'd say it's fair to assume it's been delayed yes lol Especially as i say since they are talking about changes to a games' architecture. I think we will be talking next spring/summer to behonest at the earliest. Remember Rocket is human, his team is relatively small, it's christmas and new year, he's meant to be climbing Mount Everest come february ( that needs preperation time!) I think we have a reasonable wait yet! Lets just calm down and enjoy Day Z mod! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
