DayZ hits Steam Early Access right in the head

4.5
The zombies are finally here! Hooray! DayZ is now available for PC on Steam Early Access for $30. As always, those who buy the early version will get the final build when it launches – and developer Bohemia Interactive is certain to note that the current release is truly an unfinished version of the game:

"DayZ Early Access is your chance to experience DayZ as it evolves throughout its development process. Be aware that our Early Access offer is a representation of our core pillars, and the framework we have created around them. It is a work in progress and therefore contains a variety of bugs. We strongly advise you not to buy and play the game at this stage unless you clearly understand what Early Access means and are interested in participating in the ongoing development cycle."

This echoes the sentiment from DayZ creator Dean Hall earlier this month, when he cautioned potential players that the Early Access version would be "barebones." Still, YouTubers are encouraged to show the world what DayZ's bones look like, Hall says on Twitter.

DayZ hit Early Access with a launch trailer, but that was pulled from Steam for being too graphic.

Yop This should come out for the consoles in my opinion :3


Too bad consoles can't run or have the amount of physical buttons available to complete all actions in the game.


I hate when people say it should be on console. Like no IT'S A PC GAME get over it.


I hate when there are people like you.

Why can't we all have the game? I have it for PC, and it would be nice to have it on the xbox one.


Some games belong on the PC like games belong on console.Wouldn't it be weird DayZ on console?Not to mentions there are no way near enough buttons for all of them to fit.


Rocket already said he'll make a console port if the PC version is a success

You do realise you get the whole game free when it comes out ,also its better to get it now because in full release the prices will go up.

Int Obviously the game gets better every patch


Pretty much.. people need to keep in mind that this is an Alpha test and will be far from the final product


Exactly what my mind set is................
