The average life for a player on DayZ is 49 minutes.
It used to be closer to 4 hours, but an update that removed much of the starting gear (including your first weapon) turned an already deadly simulation into a much more dangerous adventure. In a word, it's brutal.
The premise is simple. Each life starts with a character arriving on the coast of Chernarus (a 225 km2 open world post-soviet state), with nothing but the clothes on his/her back, some pain killers, a bandage and a flashlight. Beyond that there is one solitary objective: stay alive.
The Day Before has been a critical failure that led to the studio’s closure.
A new document from Microsoft and FTC's legal battle reveals that DayZ 2 is currently under development at Bohemia Interactive.
Bohemia can suck it with their Day Z cash-ins. So nice that they did a bait and switch before Day Z hit PS5.
""DayZ", the renowned post-apocalyptic survival game, invites survivors to embark on a transformative journey with the highly anticipated release of Update 1.21.
Available across all platforms, this latest update immerses players in a captivating medieval world, introducing the formidable crossbow as a powerful addition to any survivor's arsenal." - Bohemia Interactive.
