I would actually call this good trolling, if it wasn't such bait...

waltefmoney

wat

I should have said "obvious bait", my bad. Good trolling doesn't just throw that you're clearly trolling, in people's faces.

Yeah, the standalone is what I'm waiting for. Don't really give two **** about arma 2.DayZ does look pretty solid.

NoodleFighter

I'm not exactly annoyed about this or anything but I hope a lot of people support Bohemia in Arma III when it releases and don't just go straight to the DayZ side of things or wait for an Arma III DayZ. I hope lots of people buy the game even just to give Bohemia money.

I bought the games for Arma and the mod is just a very nice bonus and I will be buying Arma III for the core of that and not just for DayZ and I hope others do too. But still im glad Bohemia are getting very good praise these days and selling well

That's is why I'm holding out for War Z unless ArmA franchise is on sale for super cheap, I find it disrespectful to buy the game but to only play the mod. You see lots of ArmA fans getting pissed over Day Z, because ArmA is only being recognized for the mod not for what the game is by itself.

Maybe if the game was actually good and fun then people would recognize the game for itself and not for a mod created by somebody else that made a whole better and more interesting experience then the actual game.

The game is very good, but by design is only going to appeal to a very limited number of gamers. Arma is effectively in its own genre of gaming, it has no real competition because nobody is going to be able to compete with a developer that also designs military simulators for NATO.

Over 900k unique players :D and this is only an incomplete mod to a military simulator, and to play the mod you need ArmA 2, plus the expansion pack, so this has me thinking War Z will sell a bucketload since it is a standalone, will be on Steam, F2P I believe but has preorders, offer more features than current Day Z.

http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2012/07/31/day-z-mod-sales-figures/

Bohemia owes these guys big time, probably valve too since they're clearly aware of it seeing as how ArmA 2 plus the expansion for Day Z is constantly on sale.

Rather it's a sign that a incomplete mod is getting more attention from gamers then all the triple A shooters being thrown around at the moment.

Maybe if the game was actually good and fun then people would recognize the game for itself and not for a mod created by somebody else that made a whole better and more interesting experience then the actual game.

deangallop
Fun is subjective, so you're wrong there. The game is great for what it is, and that's a mili-sim, and outright better then Day-Z in all regards, especially considering zombies in Bohemia games have been a thing since 2001. What people want is an emergent and realistic zombie survival experience; and no game has delivered that at all; until Day-Z came along. Build it and they will come, and so they did.

You should read what the developer has to say some time, he's a smart guy in terms of understanding what it's draw cards are. Or reading that just might be too much to ask right?

You are dumb, you obviously don't understand the simulation genre.

Gran Turismo =/= Need for Speed Hot Pursuit

Microsoft Flight Simulator =/= Ace Combat

lol I'm dumb now??? :lol:

Explain to me what makes this a simulator and not your regular MMO then... I dare you.

In a sense, it is an MMO, but it's a simulation MMO. the game tries to put you in a realistic scenario in the event of a zombie apocalypse. Finding items is extremely scarce. There is no xp in the game and you don't have a skill set/skill tree - which the new day z MMO will have. You have to eat and drink food regularly to survive, you can fracture bones depending on a large variety of situations, you can go into shock, and you can faint due to extreme blood loss. You need to maintain a good body temperature too otherwise you'll get sick and/or be more prone to infections. The mod is based more on the realistic aspect of such an event. It's funny because often times I'll find a shotgun or something, and it'll have 2 bullets in it and no ammo lying around. you don't really want to shoot for multiple reasons in that type of situation.
regardless, I've had an alright time with the game. It can be fun at times, but for the most part I still stick to team fortress classic and quake if I really want to have fun.

i was excited about this game untill some dude came in here and linked a bunch of videos to promote the game but instead revealed day z to be a giant griefbox filled with douchebags.

somebody please tell me there is a single player mode so i don't have to interact with a bunch of people who think it is funny to grief people.

lawlessx

a single player mode would be very pointless.The of the game is to survive and interact with other players. but im sure another developing team will work on a carebear version of the game.

lulz, dudes are camping spawn points to kill new players for their bandages and i'm the shyttyplayer that needs a carebear version of the game.

heh, thanks pc enthusiasts for once again showing why pc is a passable game experience for so many people.

Nice read but it fails to explain how the hell is DayZ a "Zombie Apocalypse Simulator"... and tbh, my question was directed to Masenkoe, since he's the one who called me dumb. Even Some_Mist took a better shot at explaining but even he acknowledged it's an MMO, which we all know it is.

lol there are tons of modders who don't even get paid that are better at making content then half of professional devs.

yea, its kind of a bummer that every one you run into is a complete a**hole. i was in some town once and i had just logged back in and was scoping out the area. and for no reason some dude sneaks up behind me while im checking my map and tries to kill me with an ax. he broke my leg but i shot him in the head before he killed me. i spent the next 20 minutes crawling to a hospital to get some morphine. i want to play the game with a friend but no one i know plays pc games and i dont have a mic for my pc yet :(

you wanna see dry , look in sonys corner haha their games sell way less because their fans don't play ps3 games they buy bluray movies ,

dry is when you own all 3 consoles and find out 1 of the 3 are just playing movies all day , thats pretty dry in fact i think 2 of the 3 consoles now are dead ---360 being one of them ps3 being the other why ill tell you why well in november at least , --- wii u comes and all i gotta say is one chapter is over another one begins and if sony or ms dont hurry up -- theyll miss the fireworks!
