Is the standalone here to make money... (without scam video plug)

Yes of course its here to make money! A game would not go standalone for a reason other than to part you the public of your cash for a game just like anywhere else. However is this a bad thing? Or a scam "wtf video come on ffs!" No it is not a bad thing and this is why. When you buy a game the money goes to the developers and pays for people to inject more countless hours into the project. Its a business and people need to eat "not just beans" As a result you should expect a much higher quality and feature rich experience. That also goes for the waiting time for DayZ to land, from testing in the past releasing a game before its done will do more harm than good. Never have I seen such a thriving mod community spawned from DayZ with plenty of things to do now while we wait. Expectations are high but allow it to meet them and not make up total rubbish plugs when no one has taken a penny. What the hell is wrong with a development studio making a profit so that it can continue to make its games for us to enjoy geez!?

The question that was posed wasn't 'Is the standalone here to make money?'

The question he was trying to pose is 'Are they holding back the standalone to make more money from Arma II?'.

The answer is no, they are trying to develop a better game rather than release some half-assed pile of shit like The WarZ which anyone that isn't completely retarded would know is much more preferential tot hem releasing an incomplete game.

Lets entertain that idea for a second if it was true. What does it matter? If a game is selling well why bring out a game to take attention away from this? It makes good business sense and does not stomp on a very successful game/mod. You named a perfect example of what not to do in WZ's case. Arma2/DayZ has a long way to go yet which is awesome.

Do we really need a seconds thread to investigate this dumb notion?
