Is now about restaurant ownership. No zombies in sight.
This is definitely the right decision for him to make.
I'd rather have a good DayZ stand-alone a bit later, then a bad one now.
Seems like they're taking the Valve approach. I approve... unless things go into Valve-time territory. :v:
Glad to see this is still receiving steady updates. It has potential, glad the guys making it didn't just run off with their success and leave it for dead.

I had no idea it was supposed to release in December. That seems too early to me. Maybe June of this year maybe.

destructible terrain
I haven't played the mod but the upcoming standalone version reminds me of Stalker with only zombies.
[QUOTE=Untouch;39143236]destructible terrain[/QUOTE]
arma 2 already has that
somewhat
I do hope that you have the ability again to create/repair cars/helicopters/bikes and such, of course it has to be a challenge since you don't want everyone to fly around a helicopter :v:
But i could imagine some pretty awesome get-away situations if you are trapped and a helicopter blazes over to rescue you
I wonder if you'll be able to get infections from gunshot wounds.

The heat? of what?
[QUOTE=DETrooper;39145491]I wonder if you'll be able to get infections from gunshot wounds.[/QUOTE]
If you mean a period of time after you get shot in which you're in a "gunshot wounds" status and are prone to getting infected, we already have bleeding for that.
If you mean infected bullets, the heat of firing such a bullet would sterilize it. I can see it happening for crossbows, though.
[QUOTE=Garik;39145507]The heat would kill off all the bacteria instantly.[/QUOTE]
so you are saying if im shot with a bullet the wound will stay hot until the wound fully heals? neat
[QUOTE=Garik;39145507]The heat would kill off all the bacteria instantly.[/QUOTE]
Are you thinking about tracer rounds?
You would probably get infections in gunshot wounds because of all the shit and parts of your clothes are stuck inside you.
And there's also a chance to be lead poisoned if you get shot with a lead bullet.
But i doubt Dayz standalone would be that realistic.
I wonder if they didn't want to get a reception like that of the WarZ as a hastily made cheap War.Inc with zombies that was there to make money off the back of the demand for a DayZ game- or if Rocket genuinely just wanted to create something of decent quality.

The original plan was to release a standalone of a slightly tweaked version of the mod. Instead, they're now performing a major architecture overhaul. Everyone wins. Me too since I wouldn't know where I'd get the time to play DayZ standalone in this Steam sales aftermath.

While the bacteria or living contaminates may die from at the main shock of the bullet collision, the surrounding areas will still be alive and may lead to infection regardless.
The biggest danger is simply having blood gushing everywhere that may lead to secondary exposure through the person's hands and clothing.

Watch Arma 2 suddenly get massive price drops in sales because DayZ will be a standalone

They don't need to drop the price, it's number one selling again in steam. I am glad arma gets so much attention because the gaming industry needs more developer like bohemia interactive and showing that an open moddable game is still bringin da sales is all I hope for the industries.
[QUOTE=Brochacho;39152808]Watch Arma 2 suddenly get massive price drops in sales because DayZ will be a standalone[/QUOTE]
Well if Arma 3 is on it's way I'd say a price drop would be more due to THAT than Day Z

I guarantee most people who bought it didn't even play the vanilla game
i hope you will be able to not be bored. thats a huge issue in the mod

I do wonder if Valve's a tad pissed they didn't sack these guys before they established themselves a name. They certainly have a history of snagging promising mod team like an African warlord and then giving them a proper budget and resources and treating them like Santa.

The game is what you make it.
