Support NeoGAF

[therapist]

Ill be buying this definitely , cant wait

 

[alr1ght]

Release it on the day World War Z comes out in theaters for maximum confusion. Will be getting this.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

DAY ONE SO MUCH

 

[nero2082]

no need to hype it up, just drop it like the mod "here you go" - best scenario right there

 

[Plasmid]

Always wanted to try Day-Z, i'm guessing i should buy this day one?

 

[Hari Seldon]

Yeah will be purchasing this as soon as I see it on Steam.

 

[Icefire1424]

Yea, looks like the turnout for the Alpha is shaping up nicely already. I'll be among them.

From the interview it is going to be cheapest in Alpha, however it will also be the shittiest haha.

 

[Tobor]

Will there be controller support?

Can't be much worse then the current mod.

Buying this day 1.

I think it would have been like that except the devs keep changing their minds on what they want. Last year they said it would be out before Christmas and no ifs,ands or buts it HAD to be out by then. Here we are half a year (almost) later and still nothing lol.

Though I guess it will be better off for it. Just wish Dean would focus on it 100% and get it out for sure instead of going off hiking everest for 2 months

Well that's what Alpha is. You don't buy Alpha code expecting polish. You buy it to test and give feedback

Ditto. I was really holding out for the standalone so this is great news!

Any idea on how steep the learning curve will be for those who have never played Day-Z?

 

[Artex]

This is good news for that speculated PS4 version as well.

Que?

 

[zainetor]

Will there be controller support?

lol.
probably yeah, but it's rather unplayable.

 

[akaoni]

Soon as in 'soon-soon' or soon as in '"We plan to release before the end of the year (2012)"-soon'?

Get ready to die a lot. Enjoy it while you can, my best memories in DayZ are the oldest ones when I had no clue what I was doing.

EDIT: As to the post above it is likely "soon-soon" I would personally bet it'll come out next month, assuming their tests regarding their new "server-client" architecture go well.

Alpha releases June. Closed testing started today I think for mods on reddit and mods elsewhere etc.
It should go up on steam's early access programme in June or early July

 

[Sibylus]

Have been waiting to play it for precisely this reason.

 

[JWong]

Shit, is it Steam exclusive?

 

[NewGame]

I'll only consider it if they remove spontaneous leg breaks.

 

[Valnen]

Shit, is it Steam exclusive?

Why would that be a problem?

 

[Salsa]

yisss

 

[Jaxter09]

Cool, could never get the damn thing to run with that Playwithsix program. Will be nice to finally play it.

 

[Card Boy]

I hate Steam exclusives but for mutliplayer stuff its currently the best system both for the developers and players themselves.

To expand: all your friends are on one place, no need to sign up for difference services and patching will be painless.

 

[Man]

Que?

Sony have approached them wanting it on PS4 one of the devs blogged.

 

[JWong]

Why would that be a problem?

Because I want to run games without Steam?

We don't use Steam anymore.

 

[ultrazilla]

Can't wait to roll with team neogaf again in the standalone.
