Do you really believe that, or are you trolling or are intellectually deficient?
Have you ever checked the dev blogs?
Wow. cool it with the personal attacks bro....
And yes I do. Dev blogs have been a joke the last few years.
I hear they are really trying to finish working on the game now. But my opinion is just that. They will finish the game but it will be nowhere near as good as people thought or hoped it would be and the community made dayz mod will still be straight up better. Bohemia could put in a half assed effort just to finish it and release it because they know they wont make huge amounts of money off it.
Nobody will care about DayZ like they care about Fortenight or PUBG because the zombie survival craze has come and gone. Even the original creative developer Brian Hicks left Bohemia and back then DayZ was his dream but he got bored of it.
What you will see in the finished game is probably only part of his original dream and that while it may still be heading in the same direction in terms of genre, a lot of the original dream will probably never be added into it.
And I say this, having spent loads of hours playing the mod and also having purchased the game in early access back in 2013 as soon as it was available.
If Bohemia was to shut down DayZ standalone development nobody would care too much. People would be a tiny bit frustrated about having paid for early access but that is the nature of early access... THere is no contract saying that they have to finish the game.
A good example of this is H1Z1 -- This game originally started off as a DayZ competitor -- it was a zombie survival game but the developers ended up spinning the zombie survival element of the game into its own game which is an absolute buggy mess while the main core of the game is battle royale style gameplay like fortenight or pubg. -- DaybreakGames have already made their money off H1Z1 through game sales and microtransactions and paid lootcrates. What made it even better for them as they were really the first studio to really really kick off the battle royale style of game and almost every person on twitch was streaming it at one point. Daybreak no longer care to innovate anymore. because the game has made the most money it will ever make and the market is dominated by PUBG and Fortenight for it to really be mainstream anymore.
Its just how some developers are... How many games have you seen on steam that have been abandoned by their devs after selling a few hundred copies?? There are quite a lot of them. Some of them are left on the steam market while others are removed by the developer saying they want to focus on something else. but early access is early access and that is not a guarantee, promise or signed contract that the developer will ever finish the game or has to.
You gotta learn how to respond to people more politely brah. Just because you dont agree with me or see things the same way i do doesnt give you the right to attack me for it.
good day to you
