Looks like we're getting dogs. :D

[imagelesskjc 35]

Gah, I just read it and went straight to the forums to post it but you beat me to the punch!

Seriously one of the better articles I've read on the subject. I keep getting the feeling that Rocket would get all of my monies if he started taking donations. I'd give it to him happily. TAKE MY MONEY. TAKE IT, I SAY!

I can't wait to see what this mod holds for the future, looks really promising!

[Jasper (DayZ) 4]

This is what us modder dream of achieving, and Rocket has done it :) well done, all this publicity is well deserved.

yea, it was a interesting to read. Thank you.

I wonder how much red meat fido provides..

[SamStrife 1]

I really hope the dogs thing pans out well. By the sounds of it not every player will get a dog, it will be something you have to find. That would make them exceptionally awesome, creating a bond with the player you don't really get in games.

I look forward to the "Bandits killed my dog and now I'm so sad I could cry" stories.

haha yeah, I think the sole reason I won't get a dog is because of how much i'll cry manly tears when he/she inevitably gets killed by bandits.

Or something 'I Am Legend' related happens to it.

I swear if you make the dogs run off of 3 ft ledges which kills them, I will hunt you down and drown you in my tears!

[rocket 16567]

drown you in my tears!

mmmm more delicious tears!

[PeteOfButcherBay 17]

Our salty tears will be rockets sweet amber nectar. :)

Can anyone quote the article in the thread? I can get on here but Pc gamer is blocked at work :(

Dog-killers should get a Cruella de Vil skin.

Ok, just as long as the dog ain't smarter than i am:

As in, "A boy and his Dog".

Nice article, lots of very relevant things there regarding the limitation of the gaming industry in what they can and can't do.

Totally agree with the kickstarter/donation thing. As of now, you have the total freedom of your vision for this, without feeling indebted to anyone. Maybe in a long while, it'll become relevant, but for now, Rocket, do your stuff man and don't burn out. It's awesomely, painfully fun :)

[luciddose 23]

excellent article, it would be awesome if the dog could get infected and turn on you.

[faceman (DayZ) 3]

I hope you can train your dog to sniff out danger. Would be very nice when it's pitch black in-game

[SamStrife 1]

excellent article' date=' it would be awesome if the dog could get infected and turn on you.

That would be incredible.

[dallas 5195]

Speaking on the behalf of the cat owners community and as a paying customer, I am outraged and appaled by the blatant catering to the entitled dog owners!

Seriously great article!

and don't have a pet.

Looking forward to all the amazing features. Will be interesting to see how the dog affects gameplay. Wonder if you'll be limited to 1 per player or end up going around with a wolf pack-esque army... I suppose it'd be one way to save on ammo.
