Yea, I feel ya. I kind of like that in a small sort of way, it keeps you busy. I would kind of want DayZ to be this way... not where crafting will dominate the game, but where it will come into play for surviving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

badluckburt 974 Posted November 26, 2013 i have fears... I just felt I had to share this with you :) "I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m.w. vindicator 880 Posted November 27, 2013 ...Perhaps they AREN'T placeholder animations but the final ones for pistols..but a secret shooting technique.*snip* I think that is an intermediate animation in Stalker. The screenshot was taken for the lulz :lol: but right after that the Stalker used the proper animation ^_^ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mazzar 231 Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) I really hope the game doesnt turn into project zomboid 3D.I did not enjoy it. Seemed to me the whole point of the game was to rack up as many hours of survival as you can.Moving from place to place, and as you get from point A to B, you'll need to resupply, then from point B to C, same thing. As in, scavanging and survivng is all well and good, but after some gameplay i want sustainabiity. Hopefully it doesnt turn into micro-managing your survival every 30s. If its not food, its water, or shoes, or shirt, or warmth, or light or health. Apparently shoes degrade from walking? pretty sure boots degrade after months, years, not dayz. Anyways, most of that is speculation, but im concerned, seems to be leaning towards that general direction of grinding for your survival.

Skeety 57 Posted November 27, 2013 Yea I think they should definitely find a balance I like that approach but only if done tastefully. In the stream it looked like Rocket needed water like ever 5 mins lol. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SalamanderAnder (DayZ) 1747 Posted November 27, 2013 I knew being logged out was no accident. 24 player test is definitely promising. My body is ready. I'll be patiently waiting in Epoch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnarchyBrownies 1383 Posted November 27, 2013 I knew being logged out was no accident. 24 player test is definitely promising. My body is ready. I'll be patiently waiting in Epoch. They definitely don't seem to be trying to push that mid 20 mark yet. I wonder if it will jump from that mark right to their 50 goal or whether they'll gradually creep up to it. They said it scales well so maybe one day they'll have the all-singing, all-dancing test out of the blue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dvsilverwing 241 Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) I wake up in the morning, groggy, I throw a hoodie and a pair of track pants on. I head to the kitchen, put some tea on the stove and a bagel in the toaster (making very sure not to get the two confused). I turn the news on, mid 40's to low 50's, frost warning, a normal winter day in Baltimore accompanied by a dull gray sky. I make my bagel, a small slab of both butter and jelly (butter first, always, to avoid getting jelly on the butter of course), and I make my tea. I ask myself, "Maybe today is the day?", I chuckle a bit to myself... "Today is always the day". I check the forums, nothing new... join the chat, 6 online... 2 snooze, 3 away... all is quiet. #DailyHypeGrind Edited November 27, 2013 by dvsilverwing 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They said it scales well so maybe one day they'll have the all-singing, all-dancing test out of the blue. I believe you're right on with this. There won't be much of a warning, but they'll probably be on for close to an hour for stress testing so I'm sure someone will notice. Also, I think they'd love to release it around thanksgiving to try to slip it under peoples' radar. *Insert "It's Happening" meme* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TIC 1050 Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) Ever since Reddit changed their alien icon a couple weeks back I believe and now the name change on the forums and the DayZ Standalone Steam Community shows up on there really concludes that they've already decided on an internal release date. All this has occurred within the past month too. :) Oh and, I might add that they seem to be working with the animals motion capture. http://pro.bistudio.com/services/motion-capture/galleries/animals-mc-gallery Edited November 27, 2013 by TIC321 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vaevictis 18 Posted November 27, 2013 We are very close to release, the preparations are happening (changes to name of this website is an obvious clue). I think a public alpha release will be before Christmas this year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
