im gonne wait untill beta hopefully if i can hold that long:S . Have played all Zombie mmo and its to bad evryone of them started whit early alpha and the worst part is that i buy and play and then i lose intrest when beta/releasse. So for me i need to wait to max the experience . Like the mod first time i enter it . :)

I bet it's only little fixes that dont add anything to gameplay. Maybe an extra gun. 

I think day z is going to be boring for quite a while. and will negatively affect its reputation to new players. 

 

 

Being part of a game in the making is great.. if new stuff is added regularly. Otherwise it just fades away. I can see this happening to dayz unfortunately.

As a SysAdmin, large patches scare me.  Fixing to many things at once may cause unforeseen issues with other previously working lines of code.  Release small, break small kinda mentality.

Thats the whole point of an alpha tho.. To make stuff and test it, we are the willing testers. who paid money to test it.

 

You can't treat it like a full game and make everything work before releasing it, if so wtf are we doing here.

Thanks for the reply.  I understand holidays are a huge draw away from work (my liver was well deserving of a vacation).  The flip side however makes many users feel like they are being hung out to dry, Too many players 10 days of nothing substantial even in terms of just official announcements can seem way to long.  This is far from a standard release just on shear size and scope but in most betas i played in many players had constant and excellent communication with developer staff.

 

The communication side however could be my fault due to general avoidance of social media like twitter,  I almost use this forum and the Steam community hub exclusively

 

I really hope their development team gains in size and strength, currently it appears to many players that if they are one developer down the whole project slows to a standstill.

 

I see so much potential in this game that i often find myself day dreaming about future features, i want nothing more than this game to rise to the top of the Zombie/Nature Hike Murder adventure MMO genre.

cant tell if you are agreeing with me or disagreeing    ಠ_ಠ

I got the game to give money to the devs but I am going to wait a few updates before I get hard core into the game.

I still think the mod is more fun and Will keep playing that for now

I can't play the mod because of the arma 2 interface. Its just too much. As for now, I rarely get to play video games, so when I do play dayz I really enjoy it. Unfortunately most gamers put as little time in the game per patch as I do so they become bored easily after a short time. This is starting to include my group if friends which kind of sucks because I'm always down to play and they are already petering out.

Well, right now I have no reason to go back to playing. I'm all geared out and I'm in the woods. I really hope the next update brings in new weapons in which the developers are so keen to tease us with images of them.

They just posted new patch notes for the next one.  Perhaps it'll go GA Monday or Tuesday based on response on experimental servers.
