Well, it happened. And you know why? BECAUSE I FREAKING BOUGHT THE STUPID ARMA 2 GAMES (calm down Billy, calm down!! John says they are actually good).
Well, in the words of the “RocketKiwi” (which I assume is mod guy? I’ll check with people who knowUPDATE: Sources (aka Zach) tell me “RocketKiwi is the mod creator, he is originally from New Zealand”. I knew the New Zealand part. The rest is further confirmation!):
That’s right, this is actually happening – DayZ will be developed as a standalone game, with me as project lead, by Bohemia Interactive. This is the fairy-tale outcome for a mod that many would have said impossible four months ago.
… The game will have it’s own site, www.dayzgame.com and the mod will continue at it’s present link.

Well, I suppose that is good! And I kept telling John that he’d been hired on by Bohemia! Bwahaha!
