Was this new devblog talk an early April Fools Joke?

[Michaelvoodoo25 3120]

They don't have an April in New Zealand, it's aye'pral.

[osallivan 74]

Mind you they are somewhere around Tibet right now xD

So I got to work and see about 96 posts on this thread since I last visited. Simple question so I don't have to sift through 5 pages of BS, did we get any other updates?

Thanks in advance :beans:

Check page 60 of this thread. There are 3 videos from PAX with the inventory system shown, a Q & A, and other. Alternatively you can youtube search PAX Dayz 2013.

Why cant the young fella Matt Lightfoot ( production Assistant ) do a Dev Blog, he could maybe walk around the Office, in between making Coffees, and show us a behind the scenes snippets of Dev

I would like to see a devblog including Ivan and Senchi talking an hour (or two) about Chernarus+.

At a guess I'd say he was rather busy making the game fella. While I would like a blog, we all want the game asap. Dev blogs, no matter how small, inevitably take time to make, time that could be better spent on the Standalone.

Funny, I'm usually quite patient but the lack of a direct update to the community does leave a lot to be desired. It's been nearly a month and I'm feeling unloved.

Still haven't digested everything from PAX but lately I find I'm an update whore. Still learning about oneself, interesting...

Maybe I should read the forum less (something about sleeping with dogs and catching fleas).

Saw a tweet from Dean saying he was doing a devblog on his journey to the abyss, em I mean, to the unnaturally large hills, but nothing has appeared yet. Lets hope a huey spawns on top of everest (with fuel, please say it has fuel) so he can get back extra quick.

Random thoughts :D

oh come one stop with that stuff. A simple devblog with a simple update on the development takes no more than a couple hours of work. Should not affect the development process at all...

Ha HA When your in charge I will listen, until then refrain from telling others here what they are to do.

[gesundheitk 420]

I think it's safe to assume that devblogs are every other Friday instead of every Friday. I also think the devblog Rocket tweeted about was for this Friday's.

I also hope that the development blogs will still continue even when Rocket is in Everest.

Neither. Joking.

At this point its pretty clear that the idea of a "Minecraft" model is a marketing strategy. As well as the talk of a "Kickstarter". Gangas gonna gang but I hope Bohemia realizes that their strategy to make the game more accessible by stringing us along for a few months is losing the players that were around early on.

You want to release in a year? Cool. How about 2? Even better. Stop giving us 6 month dates when all they are doing is using A2OA assets ported to the A3 engine while marketing for another year.

Its one thing to make a release date. Its another thing to keep pushing it back under false pretences. I am so gullable to think this game would be accessed by Dec and now June? Seems legit.

Between your choice of text and your cringe worthy 'catchphrase', I'm left wondering if you are just trying to give everyone a headache...

I played DayZ from pretty early on. I haven't played the mod since the SA was announced, neither have most of my buddies that I played with. I guarantee than when the SA is released we will be first in line to get it. It really doesn't matter how long it takes to come out, though obviously the sooner, the better.

The reasons for the current delay are solid. WarZ (a game you very vocally bitched about and that is probably the only reason anyone knows who you are) was rushed out the door in an incomplete state, with no hack protection, basically none of the features it promised, crappy optimization, visuals, etc. etc.

But now you are complaining because Rocket isn't doing the very thing you called WarZ a scam for? Pull your head out of your ass and stop with the (seriously) cringe worthy tagline/catchphrase/whatever....Wind your neck in.

Pull your head out of your ass.

Funny. I was gonna tell this guy to go stick his head up his ass, but you beat me to it. In this case, maybe he should first stick his head up his ass, then pull it out. This way everyone involved is ensured a happy time.

God how I hate that avatar. Shit makes me uneasy.

Everyone, please ignore this guy. I'm 97.4% sure that he's a troll. He lurks around the Health & Fitness forums posting about his regiment and bragging about gains. He's a pretty big dildo.

On topic: The video looked amazing. It looks a lot less twitchy than the mod. Which is something I really wanted. Looting looks very improved, especially now that things aren't in the middle of a room. Vaulting was needed, I hate taking 30 seconds to climb over a jumpable fence. And the graphics are as smooth as pearls. I can't even complain. It's really shaping up.
