Will DayZ Finally Get ARMA Reforger's Engine?

[@timbur2614]

I think it would be much easier to just make a “Dayz 2” within arma reforger much like how dayz became a thing in the first place in arma 2

[@drwells]

I second this. Make DayZ 2 on some already established Reforger map and then after release bring the DayZ maps to DayZ 2 as DLC. This way we get a bright and shiny new engine and map to sink our DayZ teeth into and then we get "Classic" DayZ on the new engine as new DLC.

As of now, DayZ runs really well on my Xbox Series S. The smoothest it's ever been on console. I played on the PS4, but, it was very laggy there. I don't know what it's like on the PS5. But, I have no reason to switch brands anyway. As far as gaming engines go, I think DayZ runs fine. I'd rather they keep updating and tweaking DayZ - and adding new maps on occasion - with its current engine then spending a lot of development money on porting it over to another engine. I think DayZ would start to lose players again if that happened.

[@AlwaysStreams]

I also have no issue on current-gen, unless it's on a bad server. But there's so much fun to be had with DayZ now. Even the other day, I was building a fairly big base and before I'd even secured it a duo tried to raid it. (The East side literally had 0 walls) So I ran around pretending to be a freshie looking to help. Several explosions later, I entered the East wall and shouted over the gate "I'll try from this side"

I like the current engine more than Reforger. I find graphics looking way more authentic. In fact, I have only two caveats - the tree texture popping when zooming and the glitchy animation of the zeds (which devs are currently working on improving)

There were a few other things I left out to stop the video from running too long but one of them was nostalgia, I think a lot of players would hate a change, or want it but not adapt.

[@plaguepandemic5651]

@@zorgovenga the one thing that honestly bugs me on Reforger is how bright and green everything is. I do think DayZ's color palette fits it very well.

@ Not only that, but also Reforger's green palette is very identical. All trees have the same type of green. That's not how it is in nature.

I feel those clamouring for a new engine weren't around the last time DayZ switched engines. Remember how that went? We've all pretty much known for some time now that if we want to see Reforger style graphics it's going to be in DayZ2, not this one. I don't mind the current engine, I'm one of those who remember crawling round Cherno at 20-30 fps in 2015, so compared to that current DayZ runs brilliantly (if a little janky here and there).

[@TheRealAdam1012]

Me and my duo played reforger for a good month which is the longest we’ve gone with no DayZ. We just got back on last week, and we both agreed, Dayz is still a very beautiful game. After playing Arma, there’s no doubt it was a more beautiful, smoother experience. But Dayz’s current engine and game mechanics have come a long way and are doing the job. I told my duo that I would be happy if they built this new Dayz game in the background and didn’t tell anyone about it. If it takes them 2-3 years, so be it. There’s no pressure. Gamers don’t need to know about a product until it’s about to hit shelves anyway. Advertising it as a new game would be acceptable because that’s what it would be. It’s really up to the developers if they want to make DayZ 2… I think we’ll get it eventually

[@Anonnymouse53]

If and when Reforger and all the development of the Enfusion engine is done, maybe a Dayz-2 could be a thing. Right now, there's not enough players or devs for this to make sense imho.

I honestly love dayz as is, sure I bitch about stuff like AI, but the game just has a certain charm. The only real downside I see to having an old engine is that it turns away a lot of people, including a few I’ve tried to get into it myself. I’m quite torn, on one hand Reforger is gorgeous, and it could bring back stuff like rag dolls. But then again I worry it could be the end of features we already love. I really do think they can make the game better with smarter ai, vfx like puddles, and repainting some textures on older assets

[@Simple_Dave_Jr]

Most everything in and on your channel I agree with.....except this. Games are about to start exploding. In the next 5 years, we are going to see a new era of graphic fidelity. High refresh rates and very high graphics. Consoles will be forced to do huge updates or die, and having a game like DayZ (which I love, BTW) look and feel like a glitchy PS4 game is not going to last. In 5 years, DayZ is going to look and feel so old it'll be like going back to a GameCube in 2025. The devs aren't worried about the DayZ community in any way 😂. They have a game, the modding community basically runs it, and Bohemia rakes in the dough. It's a cash-generating machine. They will not change it until it stops producing money for them. Comparing RDR2’s engine with this engine is not fair. It's like comparing a Ferrari and a Prius. A very old Prius. It gets the job done, but it lacks everything good in a new hypercar. Great graphics, smooth operation, future power upgrades, etc. DayZ would see triple its player base if they upgraded to a new engine. That will probably never happen though. Bohemia does not keep DayZ alive. Same with Arma 3. The modding community does. The OG devs throw in some breadcrumbs in comparison every now and then. In order for DayZ to be relevant in 5+ years, it must upgrade. I don't think Bohemia cares that much though, to be honest. It's almost free money at this point. Just my two cents.

[@murphsmash11]

Hiring on new members, for a team who would do nothing but port everything to the new engine, while allowing the current devs to continue content creation, seems like the best course of action.

[@xltsalad8100]

The problem with dayz is the developers are ignoring so many things the game desperately needs while giving us mostly changes no one asked for. It feels like every update is 90% changes no one asked for with maybe 1 or 2 minor changes that the community actually wanted. For example, last update we got: a worse version of namalsk that costs 40 dollars, no one asked for that. Half the guns in the game removed from Livonia. No one asked for that. Inventory space was nerfed. No one asked for that. Hunter gear was nerfed. No one asked for that. But hey, at least we got boats. They need to stop this pattern and give us the BIG things we want like better anti-cheat, base building overhaul, helicopters, shooting from cars, etc. this 90/10 ratio isn’t working. These little bones they are throwing us are not enough.

[@AlwaysStreams]

Everyone asked for a new snow map. It was the number 1 requested thing on almost every poll for years. But if you look at the feedback tracker, almost everything they've added has been a direct result of community requests. It's still all there to read, for years the community was complaining about people hiding M4s in their shirts and stuff. The other things are to do with balancing. With more and more players engaging for longer, they need to strike a balance between accessible and difficult enough to not get bored.

OP is right about one thing do, we are not getting helicopters or bicycles. At this point, I would actually be surprised it we got helis or bikes or anything "new mechanic" like that, shooting from cars - no game ever needed it more then dayz, it would be so fun to be able to shoot back while someone else is driving. Number 1 request new map, yet no one plays it on pc... so it must be it was a vocal minority. Dayz1 is the best it ever was, and it wont get much better then it is now due to limitations, answer for the future is to build a better Dayz2, that will have modding on consoles etc.

​@@hazardeur Then where are they in standalone, they made the models and advertised them. Having it be in a mod is not that good of an argument, sure its fun for you, but how many people play that perticular mod set. What about consoles, do they have moded bikes or helis. They are not implementing it because it would take too many man hours, their vehicles overall are performing badly, so adding new vehicles like bikes or helis would be more of the same. I would be pleasantly surprised if they put out helis, bicycles or shooting out of cars, but my bet is that it won't happen at all in standalone vanilla.

This game needs new zombie types and AI survivors. I know PC has the modding but I’m speaking for console and just the game alone. Would be nice to add some side objectives to help survive. Like temporarily turn the power in town back on. More base customization. Vehicle customization. Pet dogs that can help in PVP, sniff out buried loot, warn you about close danger, assist in hunting, and guarding camp/base. Horses. Night zombie’s similar to volatile’s from dying light except they act more like the cannibals from The forest. More weather changes like heavy storms, tornadoes, snow, and blizzards. That’s only 15% of what I wish was in the game. Has the potential to be the best zombie survival horror game of all time. Don’t get me wrong I love the game now but we can all agree those are things that would make this game so much better.

[@yugen]

It comes down to the fundamental problems that DayZ has, what the current engine is capable of, etc, etc, etc. Truth is that DayZ was intended to be developed alongside Enfusion, and DayZ was at one point intended to be released on the full Enfusion Engine. But Enfusion took too long to finish so they launched DayZ earlier than initially hoped. Some of the features that DayZ was intended to launch with was shooting from vehicles for example. There's been an ongoing issue with the experience of driving vehicles in DayZ, this can't be fixed without an underlying engine address. DayZ is getting more and more popular every year. I can't imagine that Bohemia would NOT release DayZ 2 on the completed full Enfusion engine. It only makes sense.

I think BI should upgrade DayZ to the new Enfusion engine to not only give it much better graphics, but as you said the new features and modding friendly capabilities would severely outweigh any negatives you said. I agree with you that you'll get the whiners who need immediate gratification bringing the player base down when they leave, but I believe the majority are the true-grit DayZ players that have been playing for years or from the beginning and who love DayZ through all its ups and downs would stay and maintain that base. I really hope BI is making DayZ 2 behind the curtains with the shiny new Enfusion engine and will surprise us 1 or 2 years from now with the great news. I could wait.

[@topsecreturl]

I know im asking to much but if i had it my way, DayZ would continue existing as Legacy, and then we would get a new standalone.

Moving a game like dayz to a completely new engine is a gargantuan task for such a small studio, considering the studio is split into developing the enfusion engine, arma 4 and updationg dayz, this would take at least 4 years and so many things could go wrong, yeah its not gonna happen.

It took years moving from the old engine to the current one and we still to this day don’t have some of the features that were available before With the current player base another engine change just wouldn’t work the only way around this would be for a development team to develop DayZ 2 in parallel with the current one Far to much of a risk considering the engine change period was when DayZ had the lowest amount of player numbers

[@thatsamshow]

They won't rework the current DayZ with a new engine. Bohemia's focus will be on getting Arma 4 out in 2027 and then possibly starting to work the new engine into a "DayZ 2" from 2028/2029 onwards behind the scenes. Long story short, players can probably expect a wait of at least four years before seeing anything substantial.

[@brandonbrown9489]

They can only upgrade so far before they have to make another game and sell it seperately.

Your attitude is bad for gaming.

[@TiL_Deimos]

@@Bassmakerboomhe doesnt have a brain but its alright, i hope people think on this

[@wifiunove1650]

I would pay 79

[@topsecreturl]

I agree with anloff. I've spent like 600 hours in DayZ and many others have spent much more. I always do the 1$ = 1 hour of entertainment rule. By that logic I've gotten my money worth several times over, so I'd happily buy another. Not from EA. Not from Blizzard. But for a small team I believe in? No question.

[@ghatanothoae6642]

​@@Bassmakerboomhow?

[@yz2374]

All I need is controller support on pc

[@xyn000]

Congratulations to your sister!

[@Hypnoticz]

I think when we talk about DAYZ. We are talking about a 10+ year old game that reached its peak… I don’t think DAYZ in its current state can grow any more and will start to lose traction this year. Either a nice refresh and overhaul is due or a brand new game entirely. DAYZ is showing its age and Frostline/Sakhal is proof that a new map isn’t going to fix that😂

[@AlwaysStreams]

I think it depends on what updates they focus on.

[@ChristianGarcia-yg7pp]

If the give us, more bas building, more guns, ca= variable (pickups)and add few new zombies an this games gonna entirely change

[@gunsandsmalltargets]

Would just be better to make a dayz 2.0 mod for reforger. If bohemia made it, it would be awesome and allow people to mod their servers for the experience.

[@Dulesnajper_and_AlexDaFox383]

That's nice and all to move to the new engine, but what about people with not so strong computers?

[@kichmadev]

Make Dayz 2 on new engine (5 years development at least), after 5 years if you can't run it, you can still play Dayz1.

[@Dulesnajper_and_AlexDaFox383]

that's actually a good idea I am not gonna lie

[@blestplays]

Umbrella just a Umbrella been saying it for years I ain't waiting years

[@jensenforster-xt7vr]

i hope they keep the engine the same, for me on of the biggest parts of DayZ is the inventory system and the amra inventory is horrid, for pc and console.

[@lewkiscfc]

I think a DayZ 2 in the future is a better option

[@Benji-j6i]

Been watching you for a while I think I even started watching your tutorials years ago but the sister joke just learnt the sub well played my g would love to have a run wit you one time would be a laugh

[@AlwaysStreams]

Thank you =]

[@Legitmystery0]

Honestly i just hate how everything is so delayed. Many times i find my self having to spam the option to pull out my gun because the game doesn’t read it the first time. Running around in circles or zig zag can be hard when going throught rooms and tight spaces.

[@Braders.]

I think the engine should stay how it is really in my opinion.

[@trashcompactorYT]

It's okay to have your own opinion, even if it's wrong.

[@achocolatecookietv5875]

@@trashcompactorYT That's the thing about opinions. They can be neither right or wrong.

[@trashcompactorYT]

@@achocolatecookietv5875 they can be wrong. Like that guy’s, for example. DayZ runs on a Frankenstein of ArmA 2’s Real Virtuality Engine and Enfusion. Its code base is terrible compared to Reforger. DayZ moving to the actual Enfusion engine would be a game changer.

[@achocolatecookietv5875]

@ while I agree that it would be a game changer, I'm saying its okay for the original commenter to be content with the current engine. it doesn't make them right or wrong, just as it doesn't make you right or wrong. Its your opinion that they're wrong, which doesn't make objectively true. that's the point I'm trying to make.

[@Braders.]

@@achocolatecookietv5875 I appreciate the clear up on that. Thank you 👍

[@SRowe1999]

Would be awesome by the way...

[@shanejamesmccann5858]

I don't think anything matters when I can't shoot someone because they're lagging or my shots aren't registering because the engine flaws. I stopped playing bc of this a few days ago. Never been so frustrated with a game.

[@brin57]

The biggest thing DayZ needs, is for the Devs to STOP changing things just for the sake of it. Just leave shit alone and fix things that need fixing.

[@jraptor7000]

Chernarus reforged on the series x runs not good or bad it's decent until the attack helicopters get called in, then the lag gets real. The map stops rendering and loss of audio makes it near unplayable.

[@joshuagarcia6099]

The biggest problem with the current engine is age and people's ability to exploit the game because of its age. I have not played against a legit group in ages. They always resort to duping or Xraying people to get kills. To many servers you spawn in to find huge duper bases right in the freshie zone xraying thru walls just to troll people. If only the console could eliminate this I would say it would be even a better experience than PC which has the hacker issues

[@LongJohnSilver_PS5]

So probably a no then! I recently tried reforged on PS5 and its really nice looking, and the NPC's are badass!! But maybe its a longer term aim as they gradually change them to get closer together maybe.

[@kuglertv]

But tbh dayz fits it current engine cause its less that vibrant wich fits the role of zombie apocalypse

[@Ministry_of_Truth2184]

That'd be nice
