The Release Date for Dayz Standalone

[mikepike8585 (DayZ) 0]

Now jugging from the fact the Rezzed was exactly 2 weeks ago on a Sunday I believe dayz standalone will be released to tomorrow, on a Monday (note: IF Dean Hall is to release standalone from New Zealand, it could be already released). The reasone why on a Monday, well because of practical reasons, since most people are out on a Sunday! Another reason is that 2 weeks is enough to finish of the touches of the early alpha and since it's been two weeks I believe it's going to be quite well made. I also believe the reason why it was the release date was disturbed so much, is because they asked the community to make radio stations and since that takes some time (and they told the community this on the 1st of July).

Note: This is when I BELIEVE standalone is coming.

School begins again for me tomorrow.

Yay.

I am not one to say that rocket owes the community anything, but I do think that a little warning would be polite.

I hope he gives us fair warning.

You bloody well know he's not going to. The first batch of keys is going to be unannounced.

"With the new DayZ patch we added some cool UI, infection has been downgraded to the sniffles, players can no lon.. HAVE SOME STANDALONE KEYS! YOU GET ONE, YOU GET ONE, YOU GET ONE, EVERYONE GETS ONE!!!!"

Rocket is Oprah.

If the SA comes out tomorrow, I'll shit my pants.

I was going to say Rocket is Jesus but if you really want to insult him go ahead... XD

if it comes out monday on then I will make a cake and upload a picture of it.

We spent last week progressing further on our alpha milestone tasks. Also clearing out some nasty crashes, as I am sure those testing can confirm. At the start of the week you would crash within minutes if trying to move... We still have a nasty crash there for some and that's monday's job.

So yeh, probably not that likely.

I honestly wished that the DayZ Standalone wasn't announced so that the development team would have more time(Take example of ARMA 3) so we could see more features included that'd be definitely worth the wait. For now, we just have to wait and see. What Rocket has confirmed is great.

I believe the Standalone should take as much time as necessary and take note that when the alpha releases, remember that we are testers first, players last.

He's bluffing! Pulling a sneaky one!

I guess that means its not plausible for another week or so..

I can confirm, so fingers crossed for "Monday's job".

Once SA releases, I'll give it 24 hours before we see just as many hackers as there are in the mod.

[DemonGroover 8836]

It will just appear on Steam one day, totally unannounced

Maybe, or the refocusing of most data going to the server side instead of client side will make it so things like god mode and teleporting will be impossible (improbable). It will also take more than simple scripting to make it, since ArmA 2's engine was very, very script friendly. Maybe there'll be a lot of aimbots, but those won't affect DayZ much.

I wonder where are the devblogs gone? We haven't seen one for a while now.

I think Rocket said they wont do it in batches anymore, they will just make it open for everyone.

Rezzed interview was kind of a devblog

[Beck (DayZ) 1768]

The guys watching the updates on the SA from the steam DayZ beta will prolly flip a shit before it's even public on steam...

Judging by the announcments of "radio broadcasters" (Lol whut...prioritizing ftw!!!!) the release is like a few years off. I mean cmon.... Player made radio stations , that is EXACTLY what we need to sort out first, not the gameplay itself!

its a good thing the mod is going in such a great direction and actually having some work done to it!

I could teach Dean a thing or two about priorities. Take Obamacare and Obamaphone for instance... wait.. bad example.

A few years? What? So develop then leave it sitting there for 3 years doing nothing then release it? Yeah, sounds logical.

Either you have not seen any gameplay or your just incredibly bad at predicting dates. I'll take the latter. Player made radio stations will be more community based for obvious reasons, the dev's will give them the platform at then it will up to people like use it, hence the applications they are taking in right now.

Also the mod is going in the 'right' direction, I wouldn't call it great. As much as a like it, the feedback from majority of users will again turn the mod into the opposite of what some of us actually wanted.

Hmm basing on Rocket's post on Reddit we can hopefully have it by next week on July 15.

Bricks will be shat if he releases it tomorrow.
