Zedertone 378 Posted April 8, 2014 So, I was just wondering your guys opinion on how you think DayZ Standalone is going?My opinions are, well, I think it's going pretty damn good. It's in early alpha, and there's already a lot. I've heard rumors about Rocket stepping down from lead developer and things like that, but that's his deal. I think the game has an awesome future, no matter who steps down. I was just wondering how you think this game is going, and where you think it's going to go in the future? 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geckofrog7 1168 Posted April 8, 2014 The fact that it's even remotely playable and actually fun at early alpha says a lot in my opinion. If things are fun now...just think about all the great things that are yet to come. :) 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GrappleX 354 Posted April 8, 2014 Lol, I don't think it's that bad, I have a lot of fun on it. :P I totally agree, I'm just surprised to see something that isn't bitching. YAY for looking on the bright side. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king_of_the_beans 92 Posted April 8, 2014 Well I don't mean to be a downer, I love how things are working out and coming out, each update makes the game better and better. The only thing is that they tend to keep alot of things to them self and that sucks for testers that are eager to try out the new things and report the bugs to the team. lets also get the people from goat simulator to fix ladders :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jfiles 439 Posted April 9, 2014 Its good. As good as my IBS when i was young (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) just kidding the game is fucking awesome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sess130 50 Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) I think they're headed in the right direction. The dev team is taking their time with the game, which is fantastic imho. Too many games today rush the development and sell an unfinished product for the full price (i.e. bf4), which just annoys the community. At least the BI team is taking the time to work out the bugs and fix the game instead of turning it into a complete money-grab. Honestly, I have sunk almost 200 hours into this game and I still play it every so often, which is amazing for an alpha. Imagine how good this game will be at release or even after release when they (possibly) add more content? Edited April 9, 2014 by sess130 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The amount there is now is good enough to please a lot of people, but just by hearing the Rezzed presentation and things, I think this game is just going to be amazing.

Bob Stookey 34 Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) I bought standalone quite late, a few weeks ago actually. I can tell you now. I'm having the best gaming experience I've had in a long, long time. DayZ just oozes intensity. I usually play on my own and whenever I see a squad of players or even just a single man, my heart starts going ape shit. No game has ever made me feel this way (except from back in the call of duty GB days when the score was 3-3 and you had to clutch.) But even still, I think DayZ is far more intense than that. Yeah sure, the game has bugs, there's hackers, etc. But I'm pretty sure most of the bugs and glitches will be eliminated in the upcoming patches. There's also the excitement of waiting for a new update to come out. Hell, I'm actually pretty excited for the next update coming out actually, sounds promising as to what I've read! So far I give the game an 8.3 out of 10. It will probably be 10 soon, no doubt about that :P Edited April 9, 2014 by Bob Stookey 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nexventor 429 Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) The fact that is so stable and playable is a real bonus for an Alpha build. I seriously can't fault the team at this stage and hope they keep up the good work. I haven't had this much fun gaming in a long time.

hellcat420 212 Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) considering its still early alpha i think its going very well. hell i have encountered less gamebreaking bugs in this alpha than i have in more than a few fully released games. hell this game in early alpha is in soooo much better shape than ps3 skyrim was at its full release, or bf3/bf4 just to name a few. to be perfectly honest, while i have encountered some bugs, i cant consider any of them gamebreaking.

I think the game will also inspire others to make games like this one, also making things a bit more interesting. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pacific_coast 632 Posted April 9, 2014 overall, shitty and slow and underwhelming not quite the "great leap forward" that i thought the SA would be. we have the mod on steroids and getting organ transplants and facelift nothing's really improved from 3 years ago just being real peace and love peace and love 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe, but not really.slow, because they're taking time into making everything quality instead of making the updates shat.Stuff obviously has improved from 2 years ago, lol, back when they were using Left 4 Dead sounds on zombies.Imo, it was a great leap forward, and Mod has all those things because Dean allowed people to branch off of it.
