For all you DayZ players:

Enjoy.
Please note his first language isnt english.
But he's doing good work

[Val]

I will buy it soon, are you guys still playing ? Does it worth to be played ? I am aware I might encounter bugs, the game is in development so.

[[TC] Howlin]

I'm still up for playing it if some others are although i'm enjoying playing the mod again since it's more of a complete game with the vehicles etc.

If people still want to play then I will be back from holidays in just under a week so I can play then

[Val]

Bought it, quite a pleasure, never played a game like this but I kinda like

First experience : I found nice items like an crossbow, axe, foods, child bag... then I heard shots fire and felt that they were aimed toward me, so I went to the first floor of the house next to me, once I walked up the stairs, 3 armed guys with AK or something, came inside of the house at the stairs, they ordered me to come outside with the hands up. They cuffed me and were looking for items on me. Once they found nothing, they told me "you can go, run, RUN ! I was running and... BANG they shooted me

Unfortunately that's the way people are in DayZ, it's not often you get friendly players but sometimes you do find people who want to help out.
Personally I find it more fun and a lot safer in a team since if one person gets shot the others generally know where to look to fight back etc. I'm back from holiday tomorrow morning so I'll be up for playing at some point

[[6S] Mufflord]

Well tbh, they RPd as the game is intended to be played, either as a friendly "survivor" or a "bandit" :3

[[TC] Stephen]

Bandits, in Val's case.

Quote:Source : http://dayz.com/blog/a-year-in-review-2014-for-dayz

Happy Holidays everyone! As some of you may know, DayZ just recently celebrated its first year in Steam's Early Access program. The Early Access experience has been both challenging and rewarding for everyone on the development team. With that in mind, we have put together a high level document looking at what we have accomplished together in 2014. Pairing that with our goals ahead for 2015, we all have a lot to look forward to.

2014 - A Year in Review

With 0.52 hitting stable branch today, the holidays should see some interesting gameplay. I for one look forward to the expanded options for the roleplaying communities, as well as the outstanding changes to player versus player engagements I plan to have on first person only servers (when rescuing innocents from bandits, of course!). Suppressor support, hotfixes to address the majority of the gunshot audio issues, new animations, the first iteration of the chainsaw, and of course who could forget the seasonal festivities. I hope to see you all around the Christmas tree in Novod. I'll be looking for the bear that has my name on it.
