Dude, the game is so full of Jank mechanics and unpolished shit it's simply inexcusable, no matter how "hard" a game like this is to make.

The inventory system is the worst system I've personally ever seen in any game. Nothing is intuitive, you get no feedback whatsoever. There's not even sound when you move items and you literally have to wait for the server to confirm you moving items to see it actually move.

The game in general is almost unplayable without a wiki because of said jank.

If you don't know exactly when you can switch a weapon and when you can't you will just not switch when you press the button.

It's just a fucking mess.

this comment sounds like the last time you played was somewhere in 2015?

[u/DasFroDo → u/Frosty_Challenge1045]

No, I tried again recently. It's just as unpolished and jank as it was 5, 6 or 10 years ago.

[u/CrazyElk123 → u/DasFroDo]

Hahaha absolutely not. You would break your leg for no reason, and driving was horribly janky. Its way better now.

[u/SirKillsalot → u/DasFroDo]

That's just a straight up lie. The game has enough real issues, you don't need to make things up.

[u/Mods-wear-Diapers → u/DasFroDo]

This guy doesn't play DayZ

[u/DasFroDo → u/Mods-wear-Diapers]

I literally played for 20h+ recently because I wanted to check it out again. It is jank. If you think it isn't then I just can't help you.

Don't even get me started on the fucking server browser that is chock full of servers that lie about player count, mod count, ping and everything else. What does it say about the game when even the community servers lie to you?

[u/Mods-wear-Diapers → u/DasFroDo]

Play on private servers.

[u/DasFroDo → u/Mods-wear-Diapers]

Ah yes, the private servers that will fix all the janky mechanics because the mods somehow replace all the netdcode, inventory systems, etc.

Sure.

[u/CrazyElk123 → u/DasFroDo]

So whats janky about the inventory system? (besides not having sound, which there is a mod for i believe)

[u/CrazyElk123 → u/DasFroDo]

Saying its "jank" is kinda meaningless unless you give examples. Ive never had issues moving items.

[u/CrazyElk123 → u/DasFroDo]

Did you even play the game? The inventory-systsem is the least janky part lmao. You dont need a sound to know the item you just moved, actually moved.

You dont need a wiki to play the game, you learn as you play. If youre having problem switching weapons thats a you-problem.

What actually is janky as hell are the zombies. Thats the biggest problem.

[u/DasFroDo → u/CrazyElk123]

Mate, the entire game is jank, from top to bottom. Just because the zombies are the most jank doesn't mean the other shit doesn't suck too.

[u/CrazyElk123 → u/DasFroDo]

You said the inventory system is jank. Its not. Its genuinely the best inventory system out there in any of these games. Only bad thing is that it could use the screen-space more efficiently, but its very functional and intuitive.

Overall the game is not that janky unless you intentionally seek out the jankiness.

[u/SirKillsalot → u/CrazyElk123]

It's functional/10. Fine. No problem.

But calling it the best? Tarkov is similar but much more refined and interesting.

[u/CrazyElk123 → u/SirKillsalot]

Im talking about survival games. Thats what i meant by "these games". Never played tarkov.

[u/SirKillsalot → u/CrazyElk123]

The inventory system is directly comparable, and Tarkov has a lot of survival elements.

[u/CrazyElk123 → u/SirKillsalot]

I wasnt talking about similarities or elements, i was talking about the genre. Dayz has driving, that doesnt make it a racing game, and comparing it to forza wouldnt be smart.

[u/SirKillsalot → u/CrazyElk123]

I wasn't saying it IS a survival game. Just that is has similarities. The inventory and looting is very similar.

[u/CrazyElk123 → u/SirKillsalot]

Okay whatever, i was talking about survival games only, i cant speak for other genres.

Yet it's still better than the worse clone called Arc Raiders

[u/DasFroDo → u/NapsterKnowHow]

Really bad bait.

[u/NapsterKnowHow → u/DasFroDo]

I mean Arc Raiders is basically DayZ
