JamesMoore 51 Posted February 7, 2013 Ok so...DayZ origins...it's seems to be the most amazing game ever created, you can quite literally build a plane...Is DayZ origins in any way related to the actual official DayZ? Is dayz origins going to get published into the standalone?...I'm just so assbackward on this topic...Someone explain this to a bambi such as myself? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dancing.Russian.Man 1631 Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) DayZ Origins is a "prequel" to DayZ, created by fans.So, I guess it's "related" to the official DayZ, but it's not official.Personally I didn't like the concept of DayZ Origins at all, simply for the fact that it's a fan-project.(Edit; Or is it? Someone should correct me with sources, if any.) Edited February 7, 2013 by Dancing.Russian.Man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
janus0104 212 Posted February 7, 2013 It's a fan project taking the taviana fan-made map and adding more customization to it.Tbh, I'm not a big fan. The features they try to add fall flat and anything that works properly is unmodified DayZ.But, I haven't played it that much, so who knows. Some like it, some don't.

maxamillion12345 21 Posted February 7, 2013 At the moment its not that great. There is some issue with the servers which have huge amounts of lag to the point where you randomly fly back 1000m because of lag, and they still havent relesed the server files to allow other hosters to fix this problem. There are also quite a few problems with it unless they have updated it recently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hallgraeme 17 Posted February 11, 2013 I am new to DayZ Origins. Can you answer one question for me.Do you have to shoot zombies in the head now to kill them?I must have emptied 3 clips into a group of 3 zombies last ight and nothing happened to them. Is this a new feature only in DayZ Origins? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PK Richie 507 Posted February 11, 2013 Origins was made to make the Origins team as much money as possible :(Every other map was released to the public, for the public, for free :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamesMoore 51 Posted February 12, 2013 Ok thanks to those who replied, one more question, will dayZ origin features be planted into the DayZ standalone? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Imafighter 236 Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) Origins was made to make the Origins team as much money as possible :(Every other map was released to the public, for the public, for free :)Origins is free.Also, Origins is quite fun. I am finding it more fun then the dayztaviana.com verison, and the .eu version is dying, so Origins makes a suitable replacement.

I am finding it more fun then the dayztaviana.com verison, and the .eu version is dying, so Origins makes a suitable replacement. Free to play, You try getting the server files to host an Origins server ...The .eu version isn't dying, They are now part of the Origins team.Taviana.com might die though :( Martin who made the Taviana map is now only allowing the Origins team to work with the map, That means Hicks who created the .com version can't use the new map fixes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rocky46 16 Posted March 5, 2013 It's a fan project taking the taviana fan-made map and adding more customization to it.Tbh, I'm not a big fan. The features they try to add fall flat and anything that works properly is unmodified DayZ.But, I haven't played it that much, so who knows. Some like it, some don't.i've been playing it for a few dayz now and is the most time i've spent on taviana map the atmosphere at night is astonishing scouting through those cites at night really hits you with the immersion, as for origins its pretty much dayz game play with a few added features, like bulding up vehicles, bigger jerry cans....etc, there's a challenge to go for if you so choose but it takes a lot of gearing up and probably need a helicopter to get there since a boat is slow and you freeze to death on the sea, i'm talking about salvation city, really tough AI with a high chance you'll die on arrival losing everything, they will shoot your chopper down while you attempt to land. but apparently there's really good loot there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
