i feel bad for the people who haven't experianced the beginning of the mod.. where ppl were freaking out over zombies and helped each other killing one. after that you would spend an hour getting reasonable gear to get hold up by a bandit and not to get shot, but to get robbed. you would get friends online and find a broken down heli and spend the whole day building it up while the server was filling up in the afternoon. then in the late night you would have flown the heli and had nice engagements to then log off and hope your chopper and your tent all the way up north wouldn't be found. today it is spawn with a kit/find a weapon in 1 min and go to any city just to kos, it is still fun and i get my thrills but it isn't what it used to be.
Wow, after watching this and assuming it was a recent video I can't believe you said the exact things last December I would say as it's been what? 9 months of this broke ass game?
thank you sir this is exactly the review i was looking for. i love warz and play it daily and really wanted to try this cause it looks way better graphically i think.
I am a DayZ newcomer and even with these few features it's still my favourite game! And it's getting much, much better in the future which is making it even better!
All right, Sam, since this video was made quite a while ago, would you still hold the same recommendation for people to not buy DayZ until it is fully released?I want to get into PC gaming and a busted-ass alpha or beta seems like a good place to start.Would you recommend DayZ at this point or not?
Minecraft in alpha was where it was at, it's best point, when it was barebones. Not criticizing, I liked the video, but it sucks that no one really said what you did, it is broken and it shouldn't be purchased yet :3
After playing this fucking game for 4 hours, the only thing that i found that got me exited was a rotten apple so my character would stop bitching about being hungry
How is it right now? The video was uploaded 2 months ago and they added some stuff like new weapons for example. Is it worth getting right now? The calculated release date for the finished game is spring/summer 2015 :/
It's better. Loot is more prevalent. Food seems more likely to spawn. That's basically all the was needed when this video was made now that i think about it. I was tired of never being able to get fucking food. It wasn't Dayz, it was Auschwitz: The Game.
Sam, you should play Hotline Miami, especially if you want to blast people w/ shotguns in apartment buildings. Take LSD first though, it'll be worth it. It's on steam right now for $1.99
The game is severely lacking features. For now, if you're playing it just think of it as trying to survive the zombie horde with what you got. The game isn't too bad with what it has now - especially if you play with someone. On another note I've never played the Dayz Mod or any of the Arma games. So this is coming from a newcomer.
I think the standalone is great. Didn't play the mod. Only thing is that yesterday me and 3 friends changed server, and we all lost our stuff and respawned. We were fully equipped. So annoying.
Its sad to know that people are hacking already, a few days ago i walked all the way from Elektro to North West, then found a few M4s and a 45 pistol. Then as i was checking the tents, a hacker teleported to me and shot me four times, i died and then left, i havent even thought about playing it again until its out of alpha and has a few private hive servers.
I also only bought it because i was afraid it would do the same thing that Arma 3 would do and be half off during the Alpha phase which makes me glad i got it when i did
Welcome to multiplayer games, if you're playing with other people there will always be some small penis overcompensating piece of shit who has to cheat to compete and to feel like any kind man.
I really hope you replay the game now, and re-visit this topic, before yeah it was really boring but now, its alot less boring, more players have joined the community, more weapons and features have been added, as im typing this they are implementing a new update with tents and more weaponry, I'd also like to say that its a damn survival game based on hardcore reality, really, what did you expect, when you complain that its apparently "too much" to cook a steak its really not, its what it really takes to cook a steak, think about it you're in a post apocolyptic setting that is supposed to be replicating a society that has been wiped out with few survivors and little resources, its supposed to be incredibly realistic, another thing you also might want to mention is that this game is not nearly as fun alone as it is with people considering its a SURVIVAL game, obviously when you are alone is will be incredibly difficult to survive when there are groups of bandits running around trying to score some kills to SURVIVE, it really irritated me when you said that it was "too much" to cook a steak. Don't play a SURVIVAL game if you don't want realism, lastly, maybe if you took a chance to explore the map and find shit other than a back pack, shovel, and motor bike helmet you could have some fun, go PvP in high pop servers or get some friends and head to an airfield with some maps in a low pop server, they're is a lot to do in DayZ even back then, you just didint bother to research or explore them. Anyway the DayZ servers are down thats the only reason im really watching this, revisit this topic and make another video about it with atleast a week's playtime both alone and with friends, and if you still have the same opinion please list some real reasons other than "no zombies" "no loot" "no players" because they're is plenty of that you we're probablly in a no pop server or a server that was up for a long time.
I think that if the producers work there ass off then the game will be ready by late 2014 or early 2015. If they want to polish it and make it better then DayZ then probably middle 2015. Or well I could be totally wrong and it will come early.
Fuck no, get an i7 4790k and a GTX 980 then maybe you'll be able to put a dent in this game... But to tell you the truth the engine runs like shit, even the most expensive pc's can't run it well.
I Rack Disciprine well you don't know anything about the engine.....your gpu doesn't even turn on lol, I have a 970 and it isn't being used over 20% +ADAMSKY 214 you should get a reasonable gpu and your cpu should be I5 minimum.
I Rack Disciprine I just said that you dont need a 980 and that a 650 is enough ..not saying this game is good. i just like the feel and play it sometimes. i hope in the end it will be like the beginning of the mod
Don't listen to this guy it is worth it..... Its in alpha this game has way less glitches than the mod zombie don't zig zag into a wall its way more realistic than the mod. Its worth buying and yes the game is fun to play. Buy it before it raises in beta.
Id like to say if you haven't played hours of the Mod than its a crap hole, but if you haven't and you want to know what the hype is than just get the Mod its maybe $15 bucks by now if that.
this game is not worth 30$ because its an alpha thats just ridiculous, this is just a money grabber game no game this bugged laggy and in alpha should be over 5-10$. the KOS community doesnt help either
i feel bad for the people who haven't experianced the beginning of the mod..
where ppl were freaking out over zombies and helped each other killing one.
after that you would spend an hour getting reasonable gear to get hold up by a bandit and not to get shot, but to get robbed.

He was so enthusiastic back then.
If only he could peek into the future like you and me
@@randallmiller5610 imagine it now
5 years later...

Sam what's the music playing in like the first 45 seconds?
it's a song called: "mechanolith". found it on a royalty free website.
Bought it, ran into a guy who said he'd help me, he saw zombies behind me and said "screw you" and ran away. I bought this and THEN watched this :(
Once loot can respawn it will be a thousand times better
This video pretty much describes how I felt when Minecraft was released for console
This game hits different now.
All right, Sam, since this video was made quite a while ago, would you still hold the same recommendation for people to not buy DayZ until it is fully released?I want to get into PC gaming and a busted-ass alpha or beta seems like a good place to start.Would you recommend DayZ at this point or not?
I guess nothing changed
3 years later not in beta
sean kassem soon. As they say.
Ay the modders have done what they always do and made it actually good. The modded servers are actually legit fun.
Any friendlys in cherno?
I'm buying the shit out of this none the less.
Hey Sam, remember this shit?
Minecraft in alpha was where it was at, it's best point, when it was barebones. Not criticizing, I liked the video, but it sucks that no one really said what you did, it is broken and it shouldn't be purchased yet :3
wilder :^)
It's WORTH buying it because they MIGHT bull a ArmA 3 where in the end on complete release it will be $60
Sir. Where are you today?
After playing this fucking game for 4 hours, the only thing that i found that got me exited was a rotten apple so my character would stop bitching about being hungry
if your name is pronounced general icatz WHY DID YOU CAPITALIZE THE FUCKING L???
General iCatzZ much better.
How is it right now? The video was uploaded 2 months ago and they added some stuff like new weapons for example. Is it worth getting right now?

Coming back to watch this video and hearing Sam talk about how it’s going to be great, after seeing Sam bitch about modern Day Z, is hilarious 😂
I like DayZ SA. I would totes get it if you like DayZ mod, however it does get boring really quick once you have the end game loot.
if u buy the alpha now. will it update to the beta, when the beta comes out
Strange to see him be serious about anything lol
Are you going to vidcon Sam?
but then i'll have to rub shoulders with a bunch of other basement dwellers like myself. fuck dat.
pls bb
There's more then 3 guns. I know that and I don't even have the game. If u don't,like,it then why do u play it
Sam, you should play Hotline Miami, especially if you want to blast people w/ shotguns in apartment buildings. Take LSD first though, it'll be worth it. It's on steam right now for $1.99
Not yet i would say, A lot of people including myself dissconect after a few seconds after joining.
The game is severely lacking features. For now, if you're playing it just think of it as trying to survive the zombie horde with what you got. The game isn't too bad with what it has now - especially if you play with someone.

Yeah, I guess so lol
He probably spawned there
Colby Smith At North West? No.
If you buy the "alpha" can you update it to the beta to the finished game or do you need to buy it again??
you buy the alpha, you get the game.
General Sam okay thanks man!!
I really hope you replay the game now, and re-visit this topic, before yeah it was really boring but now, its alot less boring, more players have joined the community, more weapons and features have been added, as im typing this they are implementing a new update with tents and more weaponry, I'd also like to say that its a damn survival game based on hardcore reality, really, what did you expect, when you complain that its apparently "too much" to cook a steak its really not, its what it really takes to cook a steak, think about it you're in a post apocolyptic setting that is supposed to be replicating a society that has been wiped out with few survivors and little resources, its supposed to be incredibly realistic, another thing you also might want to mention is that this game is not nearly as fun alone as it is with people considering its a SURVIVAL game, obviously when you are alone is will be incredibly difficult to survive when there are groups of bandits running around trying to score some kills to SURVIVE, it really irritated me when you said that it was "too much" to cook a steak.

its late 2014 and aint much better
worth it will just get better
where can you buy it????? is it available in stores or only online.
You can get it through Steam. Sorry i didn't reply sooner.
General Sam
Don't touch steam products( i am against internet dependent products eg. Steam and Origin) can i buy a retail version (non Steam)
Would my PC be able to run this?
Intel Pentium CPU N3540 2.16GHz
8GB Ram (7.89GB Usable)
64 bit operating system.
Fuck no, get an i7 4790k and a GTX 980 then maybe you'll be able to put a dent in this game... But to tell you the truth the engine runs like shit, even the most expensive pc's can't run it well.
I Rack Disciprine well you don't know anything about the engine.....your gpu doesn't even turn on lol, I have a 970 and it isn't being used over 20%
+ADAMSKY 214 you should get a reasonable gpu and your cpu should be I5 minimum.
YellowBlue RC check out my channel... i have a dayz video which explains exactly why i hate the game
I Rack Disciprine I just said that you dont need a 980 and that a 650 is enough ..not saying this game is good.
i just like the feel and play it sometimes.
i hope in the end it will be like the beginning of the mod
Oh yeah and then there's this video also
But pay attention it said it is not alpha it's pre-alpha so it's even earlier than alpha
Do i have to buy it again when the game is complete or do i allready own it if i buy it in alpha?
you buy it in alpha, you own it for lyfe
Why would you need to buy it again? Of course you'll own it later if buy it in alpha.
I get the ps4 version and I got it because of you I watched your videos looking at of DayZ Arma
its certainly improved from then to now, kinda slow going, but its getting there
diggin the dark souls backround music sammidy sam sam!!!! gotcha good fucker!!!
There is no respawning in the game yet. I think you were playing on a old and not newly restarted server. Thats why there is no loot or zombies.
I bought the game and it was bad for me.....I'm going to play the mod version
how do i get the standalone?
steam,but why would you
buy it
I think its worth it
to make food you need an axe and a pot then the animal
I think its worth it only $30 dollars as appose to $60 when its finished.
To be honest i'm not gonna play it alot until vehicles are added.
Well 5 years later and you get your wish. Plus modded servers are fucking amazing.
dat music+dat voice=sex
Don't listen to this guy it is worth it..... Its in alpha this game has way less glitches than the mod zombie don't zig zag into a wall its way more realistic than the mod. Its worth buying and yes the game is fun to play. Buy it before it raises in beta.
im gonna buy this, just because i have alot of faith in this game and the fact that i'm giving money to further develop this piece of shit
I don't know how to buy it
good.
General Sam snap.
The_Mamba u buy it through steam
thats not true,i didnt play the dayz mod and i'm lovin dayz standalone
You do realize it is pre-alpha duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
MrCrazycookie900 duhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Id like to say if you haven't played hours of the Mod than its a crap hole, but if you haven't and you want to know what the hype is than just get the Mod its maybe $15 bucks by now if that.
its fun as shit and worth it.
If you cant find food and live whit a game that is 20% fiinished then you should not play games come om man 20%!!!!
wow
Shit was trash, lawl
NO, IT IS NOT. Thumb this comment up...
this game is not worth 30$ because its an alpha thats just ridiculous, this is just a money grabber game no game this bugged laggy and in alpha should be over 5-10$. the KOS community doesnt help either
it's either 30 now, or 60-90 later...Take your pick, or don't buy it.
Justin James thats the only reason why i baught it im just going to keep into my inventory until i see BUGS FIXED ADDED MORE CARS AND 250 player slots
ProdigyWins
you really dont want 250 players. then anywhere will be a killzone.
Shadow but with 50 i still cant see a single one
ProdigyWins
youre in the wrong places
i hate dayz it sucks
