This is BIG. DayZ 2 has been forced to reveal due to the Microsoft ActiBlizz legal hearings. It's in development.

I don't like that the author implies they should make DayZ more fast paced and focused on short rounds like the Battle Royale genre that sprung in part from DayZ mod mods. DayZ is a unique experience to me because of its slow pacing. I don't have the time to play anymore but hours long gun fights and stand offs with characters that I kept alive for weeks of in-game time were exactly what made DayZ stand out from any other experience out there. There's dozens of fast paced Battle Royale style games out there already, DayZ 2 doesn't need to add to that list. If they can create a more stable and polished experience by reworking the core game then that'd be what I hope to see from DayZ 2.
