On the back of today’s news around a Halo 3 Steam page being found, another little gem popped up… a DayZ standalone community page.
While this news doesn’t mean the game is just around the corner, it does lend a little more hope that we’ll not only see distribution through Steam at launch, but the developers may be closer to open beta/release than some may have anticipated.
Blindfolding myself and clicking a Steam page at random would serve me better recommendations than Steam’s algorithm
Hmm, not sure I agree with that. The recommendations I get are usually pretty good, but then again I have pretty large library of games on Steam and hundreds of them in my wish list, along with lots of curators I follow for it to build recommendations off of. On occasion it will throw me a random FIFA game or something I've never bought or shown interest in, but mostly its decent IMO.

Players can pay to edit their character, resurrect the dead and other actions.
Yet Helldivers 2 gets a pass? Y’know a GotY contender by the name of RE4 had them and so does Devil May Cry V. The funny thing is I enjoyed both of those games thoroughly without having to buy a single microtransaction.
What I do consider a valid complaint is not being able to start a new game or being able to edit your character. That’s kind of a seriously baffling decision, but then I think how I played Dragon’s Dogma 1 and I never edited my character and I just did a 100% playthrough on a single file and didn’t start a NG since. So, I don’t think these are really going to impact me, but I can see how it will others.
I was going to pay full price to support this game because I've been waiting for it for forever but I think I'll wait until I get it for free from Epic or a Humblebundle monthly.
I am not defending Capcom, as I am not a fan of MTX in single player games. I do however belive they were open to reviewers about having MTX in their game. The reviewers just decided to leave that part out. Which is very disingenuous. There are some companies that get away with these things. Image if this was done by EA, Ubisoft, or even Activision? I am positive those defending Capcom, would have had their pitchforks ready if the companies listed above did this
I'd like to think I'm ready for this. I know that my mind and sanity are not. I cannot wait to see what Hall has in store for us! This may not be a very big step forward, but any movement is good movement!
They need to hurry up and launch the game before it's too late. If they're not careful The War Z developers will fix their game and take all the players.
But that still gives DayZ about 10 years to release before that happens.
Are they make huge improvements for the standalone version?
They really should think about doing something with the name to clarify to customers that they aren't the same game as The War Z. Completely different games and devs. Make sure people know this.
I can't wait
