z1232 said I’m starting to slowly get back into dayz. Is the standalone game worth it?
Depends, what do you want from a game? Dayz SA has much more complex loot and crafting compared to Dayz mod. It is also slightly more challenging than dayz mod to survive, although this heavily depends on what sort of loot distribution does the current version have. Changes to things like loot, or zombie stamina, turn the game from real easy to real hard quite quickly and these changes happen. Also, there are public and private hives, with public hives you have greater chance of finding a server with population that you like, but you’ll have people server hopping to get gear.
