Arma 3 lauch day 5 (and question about dayz) edit* wasteland already port

[aoshi 32]

For those who do not know. the alpha of ARma 3'll be available on day 5/03 steam, and I wonder if anyone has plans to make the mod dayz (will already have support for modding)

razor, someone from bohemia? someone with a knowledge in virtual engine ... and free time?

EDIT*

wasteland is already there, someone will port dayz?i don't have the skill to do so, but I would love someone to do that

No, they won't make DayZ in Arma 3.

They already told us they are going to use the Take on Helicopters engine. (AKA: Arma 2.5)

[aoshi 32]

you are missing the point, they will use it IN stand alone, but the arma 3 have modding tools... and is possible to do a mod looking like dayz

[BwobBwub 660]

There is honestly no point. Stratis is too small for DayZ (hence why Utes is so shitty). From what I know, Stratis is just a military island so it would just be a deathmatch.

I remember reading awhile ago that apparently they already tried DayZ Mod script in Arma 3 in the BiS office and it mostly already works (with a number of glitches/broken functions of course). So I imagine there will definitely be someone out there who would take it upon themselves to port it over.

But they have a MUCH larger map available than Stratis in Arma 3. Anyhoo, if someone does make it, it's still gonna have all if not more of the issues this mod has. Bring on the SA.

It is also to be expected, that the new chernarus map is not an exclusive-development for dayZ. I strongly expect that map to be in Arma III.

That's what I thought, but it's actually a lot bigger than Utes, probably 3-4 times bigger. It won't be the greatest map for dayz, but with 20-30 players, it could still be great fun.

[Ivanuvo (DayZ) 117]

As I recall, the main island in ArmA 3, Altis, is bigger than Chernarus, so if you had the patience to wait for that it would be possible.

[aoshi 32]

the size is not a problem, is good to have the basic things... just make server with less ppl...

[Ivanuvo (DayZ) 117]

Stratis is only 19 km² though, that's just a deathmatch waiting to happen.

[aoshi 32]

if they start making the mod, when the big map is released the things will be already done, like rocket said, take less tan one day to put loots in the map... so if they do zombies, items and etc,is a good thing,why no one is looking forward to it, I'm looking forward to the SA, and arma 3 itself, but a mode would be cool

Why don't you go an enjoy some real arma 3 gamemodes, and other player missions. There's more to arma than just wasteland and dayz, a lot more.

I dunno I played Arma 3 normal stuff and it's rather boring without the survival aspect and the loot.

I don't think Stratis would be good for DayZ, because there are almost no towns! Look at the map... that's what DayZ standalone is for. There probably will be a DayZ mod for Stratis, but will it be any good? Time will tell...

Welcome to a military simulator! Something that has literally nothing to do with 'finding loot' or 'surviving'.

Well, i'm pretty sure theres a little bit about surviving in it.

Staying alive has always been a pretty good tactic in my book.

Wait wait wait...so Arma DOESN'T have zombies in it?!?!
