SmashT 10907 Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) This is sad news.None of them have returned our calls so I doubt we will see them in game despite our best efforts, unfortunatelyWe tried pretty hard on this one. It was a tremendous fail, we didn't even get any call backs or replies to emails.I was really hoping we could get something going with Heinz at least.Look at it from their perspective. There is a tiny benefit for them, and much risk (potentially being associated with a product that has drugs, violence, cannibalism, etc...).The video game industry is very controversial and changes rapidly, brands are scared by that I think. Perhaps rightly so. Edited January 21, 2013 by smasht_AU 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Covance 5903 Posted January 21, 2013 It comes as no surprise that the companies don't want to be in the SA game, even though it would be some kind of advertising.HOWEVER,this calls for original DayZ product brands! Have fans create and present labels for all the products in DayZ, and Rocket/the devs pick the best ones! 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OrLoK 16182 Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) Hello thereUse a generic brand and once the SA is released then approach them AND their competitors, whilst letting them know you are doing so.They'll bite your hand off.RgdsLoK Edited January 21, 2013 by orlok 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have fans create and present labels for all the products in DayZ, and Rocket/the devs pick the best ones!^thisAs I've seen in the DayZ Subreddit and the Gallery section of the forums, there are a lot of talented artists that play DayZ. It would be no trouble at all to request some fan art/models/ideas that could be implemented in the standalone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bad_mojo (DayZ) 1204 Posted January 21, 2013 Someone needs to start a campaign to get these companies to allow it. Show me a petition to sign, give me addresses to email, where's the banner for my sig? I think with enough support via social media they would reconsider. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
