Does anybody think this game will ever get finished?

[Dayve]

It could be a really good game if it was finished but... I have no confidence that it ever will be. What do you think?

Maybe we should play Call of Duty MW3 to feel how the game is REALLY RUSHED!

Or maybe...Battlefield 4 or GTA V. The feeling of rushed is powerful. But DayZ has a big banner of highlight "ALPHA"...so the difference is critically high.

However, the situation is same...but DayZ has a warning from the beginning till the end. Yet,....we never listened nor read it. So here we are, complaining. Like me, like this, and like that. Vice versa, never ending sh|t cycle.

not complaining, i am going to be patient. this bug was gonna pop up sooner or later, so this is for the better.

do you think kids will ever stop complaining about the game? no so they will always try to improve considering the game hasnt even reached a stable beta and everyone is going crazy because they are so impatient

I m big fan of the mod playing like 300 hours, and i stop playing the standalone because im really disppointed by it .when Dean work on the mod ,i really see the changes, each bugs saw was fixed by updates, and the mod being more and more better,somes updates fail like the 1.7.5.1,the game was so hard to play than player can just use axe to avoid getting spotted by zombies... the 1.6 updates fixed that (just an exemple). So im affraid do not see the same in the standalone, they add more and more stuff but the most annoying bugs are still here,and i think a lot of people thinks like me,just minor fix and things we dont really need like physics for items...they should more focuse on house glitch, wallhack zombies, stuff like that,im sure people will be reassure. i hope the game reach the release,that will be awesome !!
PS: Yes im not a dev and im not able to programm a game, but im just seeking a logic i see in the developement of other beta... just saying.

Do you want a game that works or not?

Do you want them to rush every patch out or not, remembering what happened last time that they rushed a patch out?

Every time someone rushes something, they run the risk of adding more problems than they are fixing.

The games only been on Steam as Early Access since December. Having some patience doesn't hurt.

1) Yes
2)Not rush, but not like a snail either
3) one and a half month+ yeah they are really rushing
4) December, and nothing has changed ^^
"Having some patience doesn't hurt" Repeat that same question in a years time

Wow, seriously? Were you around for the announcement of the Stand Alone? Know this, if you were, you would be ALOT more pissed off then you are now. The date kept getting pushed back, and honestly, I was surpirsed by the December Alpha. I was hoping for a release way back in June, but knew if Rocket released it TOO soon, we would have people like you making whine threads and trying to defend your own personal whine. Just be glad youre a part of this experiment within an experiment. Or dont be, sulk all you want.

Games that are finished are ones that stop receiving developer support, via patches

But, what do you consider the MOD community to be, after a game is finished? I think games continue "development" even after the company has stopped supporting it.

Well I got standalone before the mod. and i have to say, the mod drove me CRAZY. only ten percent of the buildings inmod are accesable, and you start with a pistol!!! whats up with that? I much prefer standalone, and that is why i am patient. YOU DONT EVEN HAVE TO BE PATIENT!!! PLAY EXPERIMENTAL, SEE WHAT BUGS THERE ARE. just kill this damn thread that has serverd its damn purpose.

I feel the same way. I was ready to buy this game but on the way home I stopped at a friend's house to see how it plays and it was more depressing than X-Rebirth.

DayZ + EPOCH is WAY better than the SA right now. I'm still at a shock for words on why they used the Arma 2 engine for the SA... Heavily modded but still Arma 2 engine with alllllll it's limitations...

It's a good job then that this one is going to recieve updates. They've said that ones coming soon with new weapons and the ability to make camps etc, a thread was posted on it just this morning. Understandably the Dev's won't commit themselves to a time frame for obvious reasons, but they can't win either way. If they did give a time frame, people would bash them if they didn't release the patch, if they don't then the same people bash them for not committing themselves to it and if they release a patch that doesn't work right, the same people will still bash them for releasing a broken patch, so they can't win no matter what they do.

And what limitations are these you are talking about?

[winniethepooh]

People are never satisfied : Alpha not released = Whine, when the Alpha is released people also whine.. because of bugs.. An update is released, people whine again because it's not what they where expecting, because it was too long, because anything, the update is not released people whine also...In fact they always whine, regardless of what is done.

It's tiring, please just grow up !!!

Sad news. This game needs more weapons and hats, not more bug fixes....
