Why have people stopped playing DayZ SA?

[sav112g 114]

I have a old Pc so cant play so decided to wait later to get a new top end rig although I did get a new 27” screen there for the new set up. Anyway all my usual people I watch on Twitch are not playing the SA and I mean the lot. Some are playing the actual old DayZ Mod others ARMA III battle royal etc. Don’t get me wrong ARMA III BR is still good viewing.

 

As I pop in weekly did I miss a game changer for the SA or is something huge happening and the SA is offline???

Tonight's maintenance ran a lot of the usual streamers off and some people are just waiting for more features to be added to the game.

There are a lot of people which are staying away from the game because:

 

1. Of the cheaters

2. Deadly bugs

3. Desynchronisations

4. Simply played too much and want to have a break

5. There is not much to do

6. FPS drops even on high-end PC's

7. Rare game updates

8. Realized what Alpha is

9. Disappointed by the current state and the prise of the game

 

The most of the players just love this game and they will play it no matter what happens. Sometimes I feel like I'm tired of the game but a few hours later I want to play it again. You have to understand that there is ESO now and people can't get out of there, it makes you addicted. Sum all this stuff and you have yourself a laggy game which has absolutely no goal. You don't have any quests, you don't have to raise your skills. All you can do is gear up, run from town to town, kill zombs/people and that is it. It gives you a feeling the game is empty and you just feel like you are wrong here + you will probably die due to a bug or will get KoS'ed.
