Pandafish 60 Posted May 8, 2014 well the reason for dayz atm is testing it so you can report bugs and make the game better overall when its complete.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Etherious 907 Posted May 8, 2014 Roadmap...read it, then step away from the game then come back when you want to have those fantastic features. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RookieThe 0 Posted May 8, 2014 like i said i know this is early alpha but 2 milion ppls bought the game thats like 48 milion euros its time to start something... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karmaterror 982 Posted May 8, 2014 Like other guy said, read around...they have started a lot... Entire studio for Zombie AIPulling out renderer for dx 10/11164bit servers are on the way This is the groundwork that needs to be done, they could just copy paste the mod. but then what would have been the point of the SA ;) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bfisher 561 Posted May 8, 2014 There is no "purpose" other than to keep your character alive as long as possible. Unfortunately since it's still in "under construction" mode, there's no a lot that will kill your character, other than other players, accidently falling off a room, server glitches, ladders, rocks, trees, no reason at all. Presumably, once things are more developed and balanced, just finding the basics of food and water and not dying of infection or hypothermia or whatever will occupy most of your time...plus bandits and zombies, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gobbokirk 546 Posted May 8, 2014 like i said i know this is early alpha but 2 milion ppls bought the game thats like 48 milion euros its time to start something... Time to start thinking maybe? Money doesn't = coding done in 2 weeks. Do your research first. You, like thr 1.9mill of the people buying, probably didn't. Yes that sounds harsh but these pointless "Fix it you have money Rocket" threads pop up 3 times a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
igor-vk 909 Posted May 8, 2014 Come back in december or february next year, then game will be closer to finished. And when its finished, it will cost 49,99 Euro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bastins 14 Posted May 9, 2014 like i said i know this is early alpha but 2 milion ppls bought the game thats like 48 milion euros its time to start something... It's unfortunately not that simple. This stuff requires time and effort, regardless of how much money they may have; you can't just sprinkle money around like pixie dust and end up with a finished product. In the end, it's a lose-lose for the developers. They hurry up and get the game done, and people bitch that the game is broken and rushed. They take their time to get things right, and people bitch that they aren't progressing fast enough. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karmaterror 982 Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) yea that is ok btw do u maybe know something about those hackers i am new on this forum and can u link me something are they doing something about that pls thanks This vid has a lot of info in it. Apart from that try out the official boards on the top of main forum page. They have everything, even all the devs twitter posts :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=es42HrtPB3I&feature=player_detailpage EDIT - jus realised you wanted something on hackers lol....bit tired, maybe try the pinned thread at top of this board. Other than that I think its BE that handle everything to do with that. As hacks are created they ban them in BE patches "ban waves", its sort of a constant battle but by the end of alpha and beta I think itl be locked down pretty tight :) Edited May 9, 2014 by Karmaterror 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

byrgesen 1341 Posted May 9, 2014 i bought game when it was realeased on steam but i didnt have time to play and stop telling me to do some research... money dosnt code by him self u pay some1 to do it that was my point of that comment to hire more ppls cuz this game is huge i mean really huge.. i didnt want to talk shit on devs they are doing a good job idk why ppls dont speak like normal humans.... But you have to understand, you cant just hire more people to start coding, on an engine they know nothing about.It would be different it was a "popular mainstream" engine, that many people have worked with, but the Real Virtuality Engine is Bohemia's own engine, and only a small handfull of people in the world have actually worked on the engine it self.If they were to hire more people to code the engine, it would take twice as long to get the game out, because they would have to train the new people first.So what they are doing is getting more people to do other stuff then engine coding.Like Artwork and Animal and AI path finding. You also have to understand BI is a small studio, have always been. They dont cater to the "mainstream" gamers, they make the games they want to make at the pase they want to do it.Just look at Arma III, they spend 3 years developing it, and then they threw it all out, because they werent happy and started from scratch.I am really happy to see the company hasnt changed much, after the DayZ succes hit them, its still the same small company, doing the same stuff they used to. Give them time, they will make an awsome game. Thats what BI does, they make fantastic games, but it takes a long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll stop that once you don't need it anymore. If you post a question about where to find devblogs, roadmaps, rockets statements, devtracker to help you get up to date on the status of the project, then people would be more than happy to help. Regular "It's not developing the way I want and ppl shoot me" threads serves no purpose what so ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SGT. Kalme 106 Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) I'll just ask one question and I am being completely neutral. What was that you did in vanilla mod after being geared up? It is understandable that there isn't much content by game but you can try to make your own content. Learn to interact in ways that don't get you killed, for first thing. People are much more willing to talk to you when they are obviously on an inferior position. After you can go around and speak to people without killing them or them killing you, you can guide them, feed them, team up, hold them up, do effective banditry and whatelse. It will become more interesting. If you see the gear as only content in game, you won't like dayz in any stage. Not now, not in final release form. Edited May 9, 2014 by SGT.

Jock McScottish 216 Posted May 9, 2014 Great question... so i didnt play as much dayz mod as dayz Epoch... but i was playing with cuple friends we build ''base'' in normal dayz mod (tents and that stuff) and get as much gear and make more friendlys and that stuff... and like i said i didnt kill single man in dayz SA cuz i dont like killing i try to help like giving food and that stuff but 99% i finish dead from helping SA needs hero and bandit skins like the mod. To be able to act like an asshole over and over again without the penalty of a bandit skin, its just too tempting for too many people, and its ruined the game. No rewards for playing nice, and no penalties for playing dirty. The game needs hero & bandit skins to evolve, cos all of these anonymous KOS'ers have sucked the fun out of the dayz SA experience. A gaming experiment gone wrong dropping the hero/bandit/neutral skins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rickyspanish 158 Posted May 9, 2014 Just look at Arma III, they spend 3 years developing it, and then they threw it all out, because they werent happy and started from scratch.I think they just scrapped the campaign, something about they weren't happy with it because the devs were stressed and distracted because of Ivan and Martins incarceration.I agree there isn't much to do right now I have about 300h and I've stopped playing constantly and only play when updates come out, I start a fresh spawn and have a little journey check the new stuff and see whats changed and then I play something else when I start to get bored. More stuff will be added I plan to play a lot more when hunting, cooking, camping and such are in.I still enjoy the game though but don't want to burn out to soon, patience is key at this stage.
