DayZ Will Not Be A Demo

Dean “Rocket” Hall creator of DayZ has announced in a press release that anyone expecting a release ready or even beta ready game in the early access version of hit mod-turned-release-product DayZ will find that “Buying early will be a recipe for disappointment." and it is a chance for people to "be part of that whole process" in a post on the official DayZ forums.

With early access often being seen as a chance for gamers to "play before you pay" this is a brave admission by Hall and the team over at Bohemia Interactive and a breath of fresh air in an industry full of "Soon(tm)" and games that even get cancelled  after release.

As long as DayZ manages to stay shuffling along to release like the zombies it features Hall and co. can probably expect a repeat of the success they had with the original Arma II mod.
