Bohemia Interactive has announced that it has just welcomed the four millionth Survivor into the post-apocalyptic land of Chernarus – the fictional world where DayZ takes place. In other words, and one week after entering its beta phase, the standalone version of DayZ has sold more than 4 million copies.
Eugen Harton, DayZ’s Lead Producer at Bohemia, said:
“It’s always nice to see new players trying DayZ, but what’s probably even more important to me is that our existing community is slowly coming back into the game after taking a break. We have dozens of community servers opening again and experimenting with early mods. We’ve more than doubled our daily active players count after the PC BETA, and that’s with a game that still needs a lot of polishing and bug fixes. The growing excitement is such a welcome change, especially after the last two years that were really tough for us and the community alike.”
Bohemia Interactive has also released a new set of screenshots for DayZ Standalone that you can find below!

And 90% of the consumers regretted. Don’t get me wrong i playd DayZ Mod a lot, i got into Arma by DayZ , that being said this was the first early acess that i bought “blind” to never do it again. After that i either check constantly to se the regularity of the updates recieved by the game and if the announced features are being trully added to the game and then maybe MAYBE i buy it on sale or i just wait for the full release instead.
After a few years I recently reinstalled the SA and beta’d in to check out the latest and apparently greatest of what these guy(s)? have done with it. Feels exactly….exactly the same. I dont see where all the new-found hype about improvements is coming from. Same old crap, movement is still bloody horrible, melee is still well beyond horrible/random crap-shoot, finding any worthwhile gear is even more sparse than I remember, proximity search bugs also abound, UI is simplified and annoying, zombies are still absolute janky BS.
With all this damn time I would’ve assumed it would be a brand new experience but no sir. Well, thankfully you can now pick apples because other food has been reduced… search 20+ trees find a couple apples, eat said 2 apples….still hungry.
Is it one single person devoting a couple hours a month to this project? Regardless, its still a disappointment and empty hype overall.
never understood the appeal of this to lonely autistic nerds
Well you obviously have some understanding of it
you are trying to sound clever while i know for a fact that you have 50 iq
DayZ,LayZ,JayZ…
Lots of dissapointed ppl
The game that started the early access craze.
No, that was ArmA3
NO that was DayZ
DayZ was released into Early Access in December 2013, 9 months after the system launched. ArmA3 was the first Early Access title launching on March 5th 2013, 2 weeks before Steam officially launched Early Access itself. In fact ArmA3 was certainly one of the main reasons Early Access happened in the first place
But the “craze” was driven by DayZ surely as I stand here.
Literal Junk has sold more than 4m copies.
Obviously not junk then?
It is junk. people are stupid.
People are stupid, but the game give people a buzz
True that i guess.
