A Video on the Consequences of the DayZ 1.0 Release

[CallMehTOMMEH 7]

Hello survivors. Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas wherever you are in the world!

First and foremost, I am a diehard DayZ fan. I loved the mod, Arma games in general and of course Standalone, but I cannot escape the feeling that the rushed 1.0 release has been wholly damaging to DayZ's reputation. PC game reviewers with huge followings, large streamers like Shroud, all covering the release have shown off how just how little there is in the game. The version as it is, without proper persistence, all the weapons, and base features we needed for a full release, have reiterated the message that DayZ is doomed to being perpetually unfinished. 

I really really want this game to do well, however this hurried 1.0 release has done the complete contrary. Towards the end of the video, I give five reasons for how the devs could repair the damage done by the internet's scalding opinions- hopefully, before it's too late.

Digging in the past does not help.
The pressure of a release is gone. With your solution you would take that away.
