I start to losing hope of this game

[ZBA 66]

I should not say that to not make problem for Sumrak for fuk it.

Today I asked Sumrak on his stream about 2 things:

-Will dayz in next 1-3 years get more engine Enfusion tech updates that are now in development for future Bohemia projects?
(dayz is using just a portion of Enfusion engine and still using parts of old Arma2 engine "Real Virtuality")

He said "no". What is hekking terrifying because dayz now have huge problem with gun play, movement, optimization of entities, light and render system...
The gun play is clunky and isn't even near to be "fun". It's of course way better what it was in 0.62 and it even without compare but the gun play isn't right.
Movement in dayz is still very basic. Our character feel weightless, we can start sprinting from 0 to 100 in like 1 second and problem with slow crawling isnt fixed since 0.63 patch.
Entities on the map causing huge optimization problem that effect entire server performance to shit self and lock development of new interesting content because of it.
Lights in nighttime disappear when you zoom on them and strange light glitches appear non-stop during night and day time.

Second question was more basic but still even more important for me. DayZ do not have clear end game what is good because its "our journey" and its amazing but. What I can do during this journey?
Fix a car from 3 random parts, put them in car and crash in next tree? Maybe I can play as medic and help people? Oh sorry dayz don't have any soft skills or any skills to specialize in something like gunshot wound care, removing bullets etc.
Should I build a base? Fuck that I cannot even place single gate on vanilla server because this one fucking pixel prevent from placing kit.

So what was the second question?

-Can we expect simple cooking system where we combine simple ingredients like vegetables and meat to create custom dish?
He said "no". And that is amazing. If we cannot expect in game such a simple but desired system when we sit around fire and cook with friends what dayz is all about I do not believe we shouldn't expect from this game anything expect
boring gun updates like another useless resking of M4 in patch 1.15.

I always hoped it will, but it could just be them not giving any false promises... idk.

Maybe Enfusion isn't anywhere near finished and it's in worse state than DayZ in general?
Overall, kinda a bummer that DayZ won't get the full Enfusion.

They won't even consider it? That's dumb. Might as well sell the game off if you don't have the creative juices to keep it going. I've seen this before, passionless developers don't know how to flesh out a game.  The IP turns to dust.

It comes from being out of touch. When you play a game for the first time, you learn it, as you learn you come to expect certain things. Everyone who learns experiences it identically. I remember when I first found a frying pan, thinking oh this must allow me to do some special type of dish, only to find out it's just another way to cook like the cooking pot, except it doesn't hold water. It's like wow, oh well there's like a whole another door somewhere in a parallel universe where DayZ has a full cooking system.

Unfortunately that's not the timeline we're in. So players are going to have to suffer collective until enough vitriol eventually kills the developers spirits and they become soulless hollowed producers of mundane changes classes as updates.
That's how you know development fell behind. Too much money too quickly, still no bikes, missing tons of guns that USE to be in the game. And changing, rather than improving, no direction, no roadmap even? This game is donzo.

Just kidding, ironically it takes maybe 20 good ideas, and 2-4 main system implementation's a year for a game to improve drastically. It's actually not hard to find good ideas, just take from player suggestions threads.
