DayZ Standalone Game Underway

Hopefully it doesn't get blown way out of proportion by overambitious developers, and I doubt this Rocket dude will throw weight around if he starts getting pushed on.

"How about like, you know we could have, I dunno, zombies that do backflips"

"It would be super neat if there were tank zombies, and they were really powerful and hard to kill!"

"Rocket we were all talking, and we thought maybe there could be moonraker lasers in the game"

Those people need to be beaten with a rolled up newspaper immediately. The game is no flair right now which is just right. The stark realism is also nice. I'd say if there needs to be one thing it should be that surviving is harder with less consistency, and loot also less predictable and sparse.

The developers are probably kissing Rocket's ass in every way possible. His creation brought their dead game back to life.

I agree. Left 4 Dead is a great game, but that doesn't mean DayZ should be anything like it.

I have faith that they will preserve and enhance the DayZ experience. I think they understand what they've got here, and hopefully they'll take care to do things right. I like how they are planning to develop via the minecraft model as well. This means they'll have plenty of player feedback along the development process, so hopefully the game doesn't suck.
