It's just going to end up sucking. Should have built it with the Arma 3 engine...

Why? They built a custom engine for the stand alone. A custom engine to do what that game needs it to do is >>> trying to port an engine over and hammering it in.

The DayZ mod is limited and has issues because the Arma II engine isn't designed to do a lot of things DayZ requires. Dean has flat out said this many times. Using the Arma 3 engine would be the same way.

Them building a new engine from the ground up wasn't originally in the plans but as they went on they realized they needed to and that is why the stand alone is taking longer than originally predicted.

Also, the Arma 3 inventory system is horrible in its current state. I am glad DayZ built it's own inventory system as it looks way better than Arma 3s and Arma 2s system

I know I'm a dirty little ol' peasant here ... but I heard rumors about DayZ making it to consoles possibly, do these rumors hold any water?

If it does it will be a while. When DayZ releases on PC it will be an alpha and will be an ongoing project with a fairly lengthy development. Dean said it's possible for next gen consoles when it is all finished and sells at least 1 million PC copies.

Which is very likely since the WarZ fiasco...

Well that's all very understandable and I definitely see that to be next-gen.


Question what is the big difference between wasteland & DayZ


ETA: Besides the obvious answer of zombies

Sorry should have said rumored.Its speculation, ps4 got it from this article.

Xbox Live Arcade may not be the console destination of DayZ in the end, though. “It appears to be the kind of game that Sony are interested in,” said Hall, “I think we just have to wait and see. We’ve talked and met with Sony, and they’re very – you know, they’re obviously interested.

I mean I see no where in the articles did it say Sony wanted it as an exclusive.

I imagine they do it's just that you obviously added that part.
