First, it began in pieces, now it’s a monster itself. DayZ, in which the public doubted, has managed to grow and improve the life in Chernarus. With the latest update, Bohemia Interactive has just strengthened their recent success, exterminating a lot of known issues and improving the game itself.
The most important factor in DayZ is performance. You rarely experience a video game that has 225 km2 of terrain, at the same time being considered as a battlefield, in which players dwell into their RPG roles. That is “Chernarus”, the most authentic survival map ever created. Its beauty cannot be described without self-experiencing the whole environment.
A game in which a multitude of players either scavenge, fight, build, craft, drive, stash favorite items, you can rarely notice FPS inappropriate to what your Hardware can support. Well, that’s not an issue in nowadays’ DayZ, in which rendering is properly optimized, offering insane gameplay experience.
To be honest, considered for a Zombie survival game with a milsim kick to it, DayZ has finally become awesome to play. It’s PvP and PvE perspective are both awesome, and the engine reboot definitely paid out for Bohemia so they no longer struggle, and focus on appropriate future updates.
The latest stable update has been discovered, and that is v1.03.151552, which deals with many known bugs to offer an improved gameplay experience. This update includes a number of fixes for critical issues in the current 1.03 version.
