Agrocr0c 23 Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) The attitude I am witnessing in the forums is distressing and repellant. There is no right for anyone to demand patches, bemoan delays, or complain about a product that is unfinished and distributed for free for us to test for our own benefit because we haven't paid for anything and have no right.Many people misunderstand that Arma II has to be bought to play DayZ; Arma II being a deep military simulator, while DayZ is a free user-made mod for it [Rocket is the user that made it - a former employee of BI that worked on multiplayer missions, I believe].Giving something in return for something is called 'consideration'. For example, if I buy a house the money I provide is my consideration and the house is the vendor's consideration. We must understand that any consideration we think we have provided Rocket in return for his DayZ mod, has in fact been consideration to BI in return for Arma II the military simulator.If we provide no consideration for DayZ, then this means we have no fundamental right to ask for anything from Rocket in return for our nothing; and asking him and his team to hurry up when giving you things for free is just unacceptable in this context.So, if Dayz is free and you understand that Arma II is what you have bought as a vehicle to play DayZ, then you should have a vested interest in DayZ becoming the best game you can imagine by helping it develop, as opposed to stifling its development , so that you get value for money if you don't enjoy heavyweight military simulation you've already invested in.

Gogster (DayZ) 626 Posted August 6, 2012 I think the majority of the comments are suggestions - it all depends on how you interpret them. Remember without the community there would be no DayZ either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kentk94 194 Posted August 6, 2012 It's like you're new to the internet or something. You think this stuff is bad? You should see the forums for Diablo 3, the forums during release week of The Old Republic, or just visit the WoW forums when MOP comes out. You want to talk about some serious entitlement issues, you'll be amazed at the stuff you see there. I think DayZ's forums have been somewhat mild to what I've seen elsewhere.Don't get me wrong, we have that here, I just don't think it's at the level of some of the other places. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
