Thank you so much for all of the support. DayZ has reached out to me and is allowing me to give away a couple copies of the game. Stay tuned for my next video where I will announce the winners.
pick me
@@elrey7081 me too
Me please :D
Bought it and then gave up within 2 hours in 2013 after dying 5 times to starvation/dehydration with no play guide..... then found UA-cam videos.... am 65yrs old now and playing again with nearly 200 hours up on Xbox with aspirations to move to PC.... Better than most movies nowadays and heaps of tips from Dayz community now available.... cheers for the history lesson good Sir.
keep up people in dayz mostly not friendly
Vanilla DayZ mod was so incredible. I wish all gamers had a chance to experience it back then. I met all my online friends in the game. I still remember many of the experiences I had with the mod. 5000 plus on DayZ mod and DayZ Overpoch and Origins.
Erf !
i remember the massive players who bought ARMA II for play Dayz and just destroy the ARMA player experience on all the server LOL.
i was crazy and hate this new poplation of blueberries on a tactical game....
So nope i didn't like this damned MOD !! and the player base ! it's the oposite of cooperative game ! just dumby guy firing on everything with a non competence when using wapeon.. sorry for my english but after 10 years it's hurt again !
im a new player, love Vanilla more than anyting
Origins modders are making their own game
@@TUROCK320 Bohemia cares more about them than you lmao
@@gn4600 i don't care, it's a personnal comment.
PTSD issue.
I love Day Z, the way it was meant to be played. No duping, no hacking. But yes, I do love it.
LOL except that duping and hacking happens on every server. yeah ok.
@@jerrysgotapewpew yeah it’s quite annoying. When you someone plays the game to rarely finds things that dupers are carrying multiple of. Like building a base. And they come to blow it up no problem.
@@jerrysgotapewpew you saying it like its Adrian's fault bruh.
@@lautaroalday7225 I'm saying that like it's Bohemia's game to have had their shit together for literally 10 years of so far, and they never have. Who the fuck is Adrian?
@@adriangonzales2666 weird. I've not seen any duping in the last year or so
The DayZ mod was the sole reason i started gaming on pc. I'll never forget seeing the trailer for DayZ for the first time back in 2012, i immediately went on craigslist and found a gaming pc for sale by some broke college kid, i haggled him down to 500 bucks and went to get it. Came home and played the mod for like 18 hours straight. Went on to co-found a DayZ RP community with some cool peoples. Easily top 3 gaming experiences for me.
Started playing DayZ when it dropped. No traders, minimal vehicles and the farthest place north was the NEAF. I quit for about three years then a friend told me I needed to come back and see what had been done to the game.
I didn't recognize the map. Bigger cities and towns. More opened buildings. Tons of new places to loot, and hunt other players. Been back to playing for about four months now and I am enjoying it again. But I do miss the fun I had and players I met back when DayZ was still a baby.
I haven't played DayZ for years, but some of my most vivid gaming memories come from this game. The strange thing with it is that despite not being anything like an RPG, it was the purest role-playing experience I've ever had in a video game. There was just something about it that drew you into its world. Every exchange I had with other players felt like we were all in character all the time. That changed a bit as it became more popular, but even then it still provided the most tense and realistic feeling zombie apocalypse experience I've ever had.
so true
Never in decades of playing video games has a game made me *feel* the death of a teammate more than DayZ. You can spend hours with someone you've only just met, become relatively close with them and come to appreciate their personality only for them to get killed before your very eyes in an instant. And (unless you're in discord which is just... BOOO) that's that; that friend/teammate is GONE. They're not coming back, they're as dead as it gets in a game. Their loss is real.
That, along with the agency the game provides players in developing and telling a story, truly does make it the greatest game I've ever watched or played, and that's no hyperbole. Thanks for the awesomely informative video man. Never knew Dean's story until now. Great work, great watch!
This game really does deserve more attention.
One of the best games ever in my view. No other gives you the same experience.
Dude I had military everything & amazing ammo. But slowly died from running out of water & honestly it was the most fun I had in a long time
@@GhostGaming__ I would love to see kids play this rather than call of duty.
See consequences for actions, consider and think before they decide on a choice. Maintain awareness etc.
It's the Oregon Trail of our generation.
@@GhostGaming__ dying from hunger is one of the worst ways to go when youre geared lmao game is awesome though
the number of moments and history i had with this game make me feel like i have an alternate life
@@sargkookie3118 exactly!!!! People who are fortnite “gods” have no idea what’s it like to actually trying o survive
OG gamer since Halo 1.... I FREAKING LOVE this game ! I just started playing a couple months ago and cannot get enough ! I watch the stream vids on UA-cam, from all the popular players, all the time. Excellent video on the history of DayZ, very well presented ! Thank you for an AMAZING game that is almost too realistic !!!!
I found DayZ watching stream highlights on YT and fell in love with the storytelling the game allows. Since then I've started tuning in for the streams of my favorite players on Twitch and if you've got the time, it's worth it to be there live man. Try a Smoke stream, you won't regret it!
@@Matt_Barnes Watch him all the time bro !
OG gamer since 2001?
@@teas926 That's what he said
bro that is a fantastic video for real. Watched the whole thing attentivly. You did a great job explaing why we love DayZ so much. It's hard to tell people why it's such a great game sometimes. They just made this stunning, immersive world, and let us loose in it to write our own stories. It damn near brings a tear to my eye.
best game ever made.
you must Be new to DayZ , DayZ has a lot of hate with the original player who got in on early access this game has struggled ! for all the reasons you have stated. The Dev team didnt know what the were getting them self into and they kept adding feature which kept breaking the game. At one point they had to remove a lot of stuff and start over. Things got better though game is super fun and still a long way from being done if Bohemia sees DayZ through 100% . I love the fact you brought up the commitment of the Devs. they have worked really hard and its good to see someone talk about it. the game paved way for others to realize their own survival game dream. I have been playing DayZ SA late 2012 as that when early access began but i think it was labeled SA in 2013 as it was just DayZ back in 2012. so much has changed and i stream DayZ from time to time.
Thank you for your comment. I am a huge fan of survival games but am new to the Day Z world. I’ll be sure to keep an eye out for when your streaming.
Yo that's why I feel in love with it you either going to hate or fucking love it
You literally have no idea what you're talking about, don't listen to this guy.
They moved the game engine over to enfusion, they didn't just "add stuff until they broke it."
This is literally the best answer ever! Thanks bro
DayZ is long way from being done lol. You know they post job openings why don’t you go get hired and get it done 😂😂😂😂
I'm one of them content creators, Fell in love with this game 2 yrs. Ago. I rarely play anything else.
I love watching the stories. That’s what inspired me to cover DayZ
Dude this video is amazing, when I looked on how many subs you got bro I was so surprised. This is such a high quality video. Keep on going
Thank you. I’m happy you enjoyed it.
Ive enjoyed watching dayz mature and develop over the years, what a impactful game...
I love the story of how Pipsi came into the game. On one of the early development podcasts someone made Dean laugh while he was drinking a Pepsi and in his Kiwi accent he said something like "damn you just made my Pipsi come out my nose". It was decided then that it would be in the game.
I’ve never heard that lol
haha thats a fun one! i wonder what some of the other stories are? i love the canned bacon has the "hand dryer" graphic on it, press button, receive bacon.
It is incredible that I would watch "DayZ funny Interactions Compilations" back in 2014 ; finally get a PC in 2019 and am able to have the same experience I enjoyed many years prior.
What a great video, commentary and edit! Pure and great quality keep it going buddy
idk how u have less than 500 subs i was expecting at least a couple hundred thousand, the vid was hella good and informative mad surprising
Thank you so much.
Nice thing about Daisy is that as long as they keep upgrading the graphics and give them slightly new features it's a timeless game.
the modding community is doing an insane job of keeping the game fresh, with sooo much extra content.
@@ghomerhust huge job is done by modding community, all good but tbh i really dont like direction where generally thing are going with all of that... and with giving most of them chances i still didnt get better delivery than from well populated pure vanilla servers...there is bunch of good mods out there, but amount of senseless bullshit that is folowing those good ones on modded server for me is just not worth of it
this video deserves more attention, good video man!
been playing DayZ since the pre alpha days. love this game! great video well done!
My group who I play with in DayZ call ourselves wolves
Thank you. I'm happy you enjoyed it.
Awesome video! DayZ is such an incredible game that it's in a class of it's own.
It made a class of its own, that I don’t think another game will match for another decade at least
i started my adult gaming "career" in the late 1990s, and in all the years and games that ive been through, DayZ is one of the most incredible experiences ive had. as of this writing i have over 1300 hours playtime, and i even manage my own online server. it's awesome to see the devs at bohemia continuing to put content and fixes into the game, and the community just keeps growing. i hope this means the game will be around for a very long time to come.
how do you have only 450. keep videos like this pumping and youre gonna be huge. nice vid
Thank you. One day lol
Awesome video man ! This game has given me so many great memories
Thank you. I’m happy you enjoyed
I was one of the OGest OG mod players because I played ARMA games already. Me and my friends spent THOUSANDS of hours playing. Met a bunch of new friends that we still talk to and play games with today. OG mod is easily one of my top 5 favorite games ever and it's awesome that it's still going strong on the stand-alone so long later. SOOO much crazy content has been made in the game as well from youtubers.
Crazy that it all came from 1 guy, Dean 'Rocket' Hall, making a mod for a Military Simulator that only had like 25,000 players before he made DayZ; and then had millions of copies sold a few months later all from people wanting to play his mod.
I can say I was involved in DayZ MOD from the beginning and am still playing the game. Best game ever
I've been with this game since the mod started, I have countless memories playing the mod and the standalone version, I love it, it's my number 1 game on my PC. I have nearly 4000 hours in the standalone version alone, not including the 2000-4000 I had played on the mod. This game was a "game changer" it opened my interests up to the genre and I never looked back! Thanks for this video bro!
Absolute sick video man!!
Thank you. I’m happy you liked it.
started a month ago. am totally hooked. been playing games for 30 years and this is one of the best, absolute top games i have ever played and i have played em all
no doubt it's the best game ever made. i have about 800 hours of gameplay and i'm still hooked
Great video buddy, shared on Twitter.
Thank you.
Though its been awhile since i sat down and played, I absolutely love DayZ. The environment and especially the adventures and peril you can go on with random strangers and the stories that come about are what I love most about it!
A short story if one has time about why DayZ holds a place in gaming for me, and why even with risk meeting others in the game is the FUN of it.
I used to always lone wolf in game do to fear of others. Nothing like spending hours days and weeks on character only for it to get snuffed out in a second, thats actually gets the adrenaline going.
Playing on one server late one night just one other guy and myself online chatting in the in game text chat. I'm scavenging around Electro and he somewhere up near NEAF just chill conversation amongst ourselves. In-game sneaking from building to building avoiding zombies in pitch black (well as dark as the mod was at night) get a message from him asking if I could bloodbag him as he was near death. Nervous it was a trap but respond "Sure why not, however I'm nowhere near you" He says "no prob just camp the roof of the hospital in Electro and he'll be there in a minute." Puzzled how he was going to be there so quick but i do while also being worried about being trolled and sniped from the nearby hill.
Couple minutes later on top the hospital only the sounds of the night and zombies... when a distant drone of an engine comes in. Louder then LOUDER till the An-2 Biplane he is flying goes right over top of me and lands in the field by the power plant. We meetup and and I give the transfusion. Bro ask me if want to team up and look for heli crashes in the plane. We run through night time Electro dodging zombies looting last minute food and supplies. We come upon the field where the plane is. The planes lights illuminated the night and the field a horror. The plane and the engine noises attracted damn near every zombies and was surrounded by them. We dodge and weave through the horde and take flight.
Rest of the time of flying through night Chernarus. Two dudes chatting and joking in the aircraft, I'm playing some music through the vehicles ingame radio for us to jam to while scanning pitch black fields and forest everyonce in awhile see the tell tale glow of the our prized Heli Crash sites we are hunting for.
Eventually we part ways and log off. Unfortunately we didnt add each other in Steam so who knows whats happened to each other.
Thanks for reading my blog lol, but encounters like this is why DayZ is fun to me. 🙂
Good job buddy! That was some good storytelling!
Thank you so much. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
cheers for the video, saw my name pop up on your list of creators and had to comment 😂
Excellent and yes DayZ is unlike any other game there's something about it that is so different everytime I play I love it
Player conflict in this game is on a whole nother level I've been in my first server War for about a month now it's freaking insane
You haven't lived until you hit a moving BMP with an RPG from 500m in Operation Flashpoint with unstable connection and 250ms lag.
Played dayz back in the day was so stoked to see that it’s back as standalone and huge amounts of improvement. started playing again casually would love to play it in VR one day
I really owe my DayZ obsession to Frankie. He's one of the OG's, when it comes to storytelling in that game!
I remember when I first started eith Dayz Mod. I used keep hearing how the game was a social experiment. Milgram style. It was always a curious anecdote to the game as the choices you make to survive, sort of went on the wey side, you know? When it was heroes vs bandits. Now, I feel that is sort of lost as pvping is less about survival and more about what you can take from others. Its speaks to society as a whole. Its ab amazing game and experience. DayZ 4Life.
wow finally a video essay that doesn't try to stretch the video and is informative
I'm glad you enjoyed :)
As someone who first stumbled on dayz back when it was a mod cause of youtubers like FrankieOnPC, TheRunningManZ, etc this video definitely got me thinking of getting back into playing. Some of my most memorable experiences on video games came from dayz including some of my closest friends, Great vid.
Thank you.
Dayz is a game that makes you love it and hate it at the same time there’s no gaming experience quite like it, after a couple years of playing I still find myself back on the coast having a good time
Very well presented man. Liked and subbed from a 1500 hour player.
Thank you. I am a newbie but im happy you enjoyed the video.
thanks for the video mate, awesome one, i have 2000h in dayz and never know the full story of it!
I’m happy you liked it.
Thank you for this video!
No problem. I’m happy you enjoyed
You have me so addicted to DayZ! I very much enjoy your content along with Nezars. 2 completely different channels/content but share the same passion for the game. You are not assholes but don’t take shit from anyone. Very well balanced. I tried playing on Xbox to get a taste of the what the game has to offer but I’m dead within minutes every… freaking time… no so much other players but zombies. Anyway, Love the content and look forward to the content to follow. I think I caught up on every dayz video to date. I binge watched for weeks. Cheers
Pro tip, dont shoot zombies. You eill attract every other zombie in town. If you get swarmed, jump on top of a wall, car, bus shelter, etc, and use a melee weapon to kill them
I would like to clsrify, zombies cant climb. They can vault, but they cant actually stay atop one of those objects. Still, stealth is the best option. Also beware zombies will hear when you use the in game voip
I got DayZ on Arma 2 10 years ago I was 12 time flies
One of the greatest games ive ever played easily. Good video.
Thank you
I was in high school when the DayZ mod first came out and we all used to play it, I’m 22 now and still play it on console although it’s better on pc, still one of the best games I’ve ever played, nothing like it, great video man
You were in high school when you were 12? Wild

Bro I remember when I first fell in love with dayz mod, playing on a friend's server, getting robbed, but being able to sneak back up on them and get my stuff back.
Best game I’ve ever played!!! Hands down!!! It will break your heart and make you excited/happy …it’s a great game!
I experienced that today lol
The mod back in the days was incredibly fun and i am so glad that i could experience the high times of the mods - especially DayZ Origins captivated me so much back in the days. I came back to DayZ in November again and since then it did not lose a grip on me.
Thanks for teaching us the History of DayZ
No problem
I just wanna say to everyone from raiders, to nomads, to bandits and hero’s……..we have one hell of a community. Every inch of the map has a story to me, a memory. I’ve been on So many adventures, met so many cool people along my journey. From random travelers to shoot on site bandits. It’s all one giant epic tale. See you all on the road fellow survivors.
The 1st toxic online gaming community in history of gaming... that I can remember being pointless and irrelevant. So congrats of reminding me of the same...
Just when you think years has past and finally it's thing of a past, an idiotic video fueled by delusions like this pops up and spreads lies and reminds me of this garbage community in general.
I had my fun with Arma2 DayZ mods but only with selected people on local servers that we had control over. On top of that Arma2 is garbage anyway so it's not like we could be stuck on it for long.
Today garbage is called gaming and lots of idiots online being the majority of the community renders gaming irrelevant. SO congrats for killing gaming and being the start of the end and the actual and end of it too... and even the word idiots is way too generous.
Great video!
Thank you so much.
I have been playing this game since 2016 (0.59) and still love it!
The Game of my life!
Sums it up pretty well. I think the long development has actually been a good thing. The game is very well though out and ballanced.
the passion and dedication given to Dayz , reflex inn game
What a an video, I have played Dayz on and off since the mod and it's never been better. The developers seem to be added content and patches now more than ever. Runningmanz and Freshspawns are some of my favourite content creators for Dayz, such a great game to watch on a live stream.
okay so... this was really an amazing video on a game i quite love and it was nice to hear the backstory BUT what is wrong with your Subscriber count? like what the actualy cow. i just discovered you and i am amazed. This is a wonderful example of what some could even describe as "Art" of such high quality i am quite embarrassed to not be subscribed. you are amazing and please continue your work!
Was playing like mad during the early arma2 mod, epoch, overwatch etc. I quit during the early days of dayz SA. Going to give it one more shot tonight. Thanks for making this video.
No problem. There are more to come.
Great Video bud!
Thank you, i’m happy you enjoyed. 😃
Nice vid. You are right that Rocket's mod created a game that devs would never have dreamed of making and it would be up there with my best all time gaming experiences. I would not be so glowing about the development of the standalone game though. It took way too long and was not in a very playable state for most of that time.
I love dayZ! my absolute favorite.
For such a small channel, you make really good content. From editing to the smoothness of your voice and clear cut, to the point dialogue. Keep it up bro
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it.
Nice video Zakker
When the graphics and the map gets bigger it will be amazing
I love DayZ. Kinda inspired by videos by RunningManZ I bought the game myself and been having a blast. It is real hard to get into it at first because of the huge barrier of entry but once you get going it gets really under your skin.
Now to get my friends to join me.
It seems like it has that effect on a lot of people.
Yeah, i'm hooked on RunningManZ streams. He does great commentary. Learned so much about how to survive DayZ watching hid vids, though i've never actually played the game, lol!
When I played DayZ throughout highschool, my english class had a daily journal, I would always write about my last experience in DayZ. It became an issue when i started to write about other people would beat us up and force us to drink gasoline as a form of torture.
Arma 2 dayz was a massive part of my gaming life, id never played a game like it before and to this day it still stands a lone compared to newer adaptations of the mod.
thank you for this. makes me love the game even more lol
No problem, I’m happy you enjoyed.
Well, DayZ is also the grandfather of the entire Battle Royale Genre we know today...but I guess this is another story...nice vid!
Thank you. I'm happy you enjoyed it.
I just recently got into this game but I've had it for years.. I am addicted and love it.. though its challenging... I made my first trip 15min run to the nearest tier 1 military camp, sadly no good assault rifles or anything but I did find a silencer for pistol, Colt 45 and camo gear... I plan to equipped or carry Bio Chem gear and go deeper or to another, maybe try to build a car.. That is if I can stop from being raided every other day... I love it...
I played for 3 hours and couldn’t find a gun then got kidnapped.
One of the greatest games ever made imo of course everything can be improved
DayZ mod is the sole reason I entered PC gaming. One of the best things that ever happened to me, 90 percent of the positive memories from my childhood/teen years were spent closely with this mod.
this mod and gaming community was a key part of gaming
welcome to daisy..xD lover subtitle!
Fun fact: Arma stemmed from a game - Operation Flashpoint which was based from a game/training sim called VBS (Virtual Battlefield Simulator). Interesting to see we went from using this as a military training sim to everyday gaming.
I didn't know this. I may have to include that in a future video.
@@Zakkerman yes sir.. We had a clan 300 members strong. OFP was also one of the first massive multiplayer battlefield games. 60 vs 60 open world battlefields were fricken amazing!! Glad to see how far the game has come along since then... Keep up the great content.
15k hours in arma 2 mod alone. Now I'm a full time adventure streamer thanks to Dean. Even had the pleasure of speaking with the guy too.
That’s awesome. I hope I have the chance to do that too. 😀
Nice video! I love me some dayZ. Not really a veteran, per say, but I can find food and ammo and thrive pretty well
I’m not a verterían play either. Tried my best to find the most accurate information. I’m happy you enjoyed it.

So interesting, thank you
Great video buddy🎉
Thank you. I hope you see your around in future videos as well.
@@Zakkerman 👀 for sure, you’re definitely gonna go places quickly on here with how good your videos already are. 💪🏼
I do wonder, throughout the standalone game’s development did they ever considered reaching out to the guys behind the ACE mod of Arma, since ACE had a lot of advance interactions that could’ve been used, ACE is still is one of the most recommended mods in Arma that makes the game feel more realistic and is customizable to fit a player or servers balance
shoutout dean hall & you
Shoutout to you back. I’m happy you enjoyed the video.
frankiein1080p should get some credit. he really boosted the mods player base for sure!
great video keep it up
Thank you. I'll try my best!
Me and my friends have had really good times on dayz
well still frankieonpc's video intro music rings in my head ...
I've watched countless hours of frankie, runningmanz, and sada dayz videos over the past decade. Never played it myself lol. I wouldn't have the patience
I uninstall this game about once a month because of the impact of emotional devastation. It only lasts about 3 hours before it's redownloaded.
For some reason I like the feeling of losing everything and starting over. Yeah I get emotional and what not. But I keep coming back for more.
4:33 BUT WHY? because they worked on new "fusion" engine which we saw arround 2018 as "beta" version of the game, and they team is small, they main focus was Arma 4
Best game ever made. GG Mr Dean Hall you definitely changed my life i play daily and cant stop well done and ps awesome vid buddi
Thank you. I’m happy you enjoyed it.
Plau tarkov
@pixelar got it different, yes, but not Dayz hate that i have a timer to do what i want. Otherwise, awesome game, too
@@Krivo0 bro.. Tarkov is aiming to be like DayZ...
Open World survival MMORPG...
Tarkov gameplay in DayZ would be equivalent of...
Jumping over a wall in Tisy military base... and you're in a Raid... you go loot up... maybe PVP and stuff... then Extract from Tisy with the loot
But you don't get into the hideout... you must make a base / hideout for yourself... and stash your loot there lol
DayZ is literally what Tarkov essentially wants to be at the end of Tarkov development... which is 1.0 release of Tarkov
It's not even a joke... Nikita himself said and confirmed this
@@Krivo0 tarkov cant have fun solo, dayz much fun solo
Imagine dayz in VR, would be so fun
He may have created a new genre but Steve Hall also abandoned the project to climb the mount everest with the early access money
I wonder if Dean Hall is any relation to Rob Hall, who passed on Everest during the '96 storm disaster.
DayZ is the forefather of all the survival games that followed. That's why they were dubbed "DayZ clones" (H1Z1, Scum, Miscreated, and tons of others). Some of them have survived, others have not. Even Player Unknown (the creator of PUBG) used to be a modder for DayZ.
Never heard of any of those other games besides DayZ
Player unknown was not just a dayz mod. His original BR was a dayz mod.
So technically the origin of pubg and arma 3 br originally came from dayz
He didn't changed anything. Plus the mod isn't even his. He just miked the bare minimum idea of it, to literal death.
The mod was made by some kids even just to put it into perspective how the so called devs were incompetent in comparison to someone who was a paid employee.
We had ''DayZ'' before DayZ was even a thing ... talking 1st days of Arma2 and before that the zombie survival mod already existed in Arma1 and plenty of other games too either were out of the box this or mods been made for certain games, there are too many to mention here and I wont even bother to waste time stating the obvious. People should know better by now.
Also the actual later DayZ mods of Arma2 made by the community changed the game and survival sandbox gaming forever.
Rocket is a scammer and pathetic individual who have nothing legit on him.
We back then had mods of games that years later some even almost decade later tried to cash in on it the 1st time and declared how its' a innovation of sorts which is pathetic.
DayZ standalone or wtf is called today is same pointless unplayable mess as it was 10 years ago just with ''prettier'' (different) graphics. It's a pathetic cashgrab and everything this guy is attached to is just a scam.
So time to taste reality and stop spreading lies and delusions that Rocket and his so called developers did something, or some corporation did something 1st ...
Things like DBD, PubG and other today ''popular'' garbage started decade plus ago as silly stupid mods, today these halfbaked and overall pointless garbage is magically labeled as a game and completely overhyped which is pathetic as it can get. Case and point that people today don't even know wtf a game is nor who made what originally... But sure enough act like experts on everything and all driven by delusions too.
@@minmogrovingstrongandhealthy wow you have no idea what you are talking about but are so confident on your wrong info.
That's amusing.
Its okay to dislike these games and modders but you just look pathetic making up these stories about them trying to justify your hate of them calling them frauds.
Yes zombie games existed before the dayz mod. But their was no zombie survival games in that form. That was a first with the dayz mod that Dean Hall made.
Pubg was not the first br but it was made by the guy that made the first BR mode of its form and style as a mod in arma 2 dayz I know this because I played it back then.
@@minmogrovingstrongandhealthy Pff. You're just a regular hater and an expert wannabe. Go fish, buddy!
I have 2000 hrs in dayz, it is a wacky, relentless journey and you have to make your own fun. Decide what you want to do or else the game will be boring but for the people that understand that is what makes the game amazing.
Amazing game. Sad it's not as popular anymore
