my thought on this game..

[TJBain 40]

The Game is limited to the Arma 2 engine, So unless the mods can re-write the source' code and remove all the bugs the actual game designers wrote, i can't see much changing even when It goes from Alpha to what ever finished product..

Arma 2 is a buggy game, even the single player game is buggy, enemies vanish can shoot through buildings etc

Big But coming.. But I think the game is genius and great fun to play, for a game like this to work you need a massive open area that isn't interrupted by loading screens and modifiable and the Arma 2 engine was the best thing to use, and as most of the server are usaully full or pretty busy I can Hopefully see something real and stand alone in the future.

Hey. Welcome to the forums.

Two quick things: One, DayZ will likely move to ARMA III when it launches, which I imagine will have some improvements you might be interested in.

Two, DayZ will likely go stand-alone and branch from the primary ARMA engine before moving to Beta or Final. This, at least, is the "latest plan" stated by the developers.

So, keep the faith and help us all test the mod and find bugs!
