ttt2512 10 Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) Well,I don't have a lot of money but i still want to play some so shall I buy it now or it's ok to buy later Edited January 16, 2014 by ttt2512 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inception. 9443 Posted January 16, 2014 I think in the long run, at the full release, it shall increase. I'd buy it now if I were you - that way, as well, you get to see it change and grow. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twingunz 308 Posted January 16, 2014 yep and it'll more than likely increase when it reaches beta aswell i'd say you got pretty much all this year before a price jump tho (a non educated guess) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gugolas 228 Posted January 16, 2014 The price will increase. We don't know how much. Probably it will raise also from alpha to beta...it's up to you deciding: if you will buy it later for sure, even if you don't like it in its current state...you will save money buying it now ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyT 554 Posted January 16, 2014 Probably go up to the standard PC game price of $49.99, though like any other, it will go back down shortly after release! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elf cakes 559 Posted January 16, 2014 if you're gonna buy it just to save money now, i would advise waiting for steam sales and such. if not you're only losing small amounts of money, when you could get lucky and have DayZ be in steam summer sale for 75% off :-DDD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dulix11 731 Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) I would imagine so. ArmA III was about $30 in its alpha, and its $60 now I think. Edited January 16, 2014 by dulix11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfguarde 108 Posted January 16, 2014 It depends. On the one hand, you are supporting the standalone's development if you buy now/in beta - the game is in its bare-bones stage, and informed buyers will grab the game now either as a show of support for the developers or to participate as bug testers and contribute directly to its development. These buyers will know to be patient (note: informed) and do as they do intending to help improve the final release. And of course, many will buy now simply to save on the cost. On the other hand, you might be one of us who really likes the game, and appreciates the game to such a degree that you actually want to pay what you feel it is worth, even if it means missing out on early access. There aren't a lot of people who will think that way; most of your average open-release buyers will grab it once the marketing department starts pulling out the stops, or when they realise a massive chunk of their steam list/gamer friends are playing it. I can't think of many reasons not to buy early, even if you don't play straight away, that aren't sourced in fanatical appreciation of the work that has gone into it. Of course, if it will stretch your wallet a bit, there isn't really any rush to get it. Rocket has stated that the price is not likely to change for a while yet.
