DayZ (Arma 2 Mod)
Aggiornamento 1.7.3 rilasciato
This is the first community + development team generated update for the DayZ mod. It is the culmination of a huge amount of work by both the community and the development team. The half-done 1.7.3 patch was made available to the community, who included many of their own fixes and updates. While dogs are "in" there are some mechanics missing so they cannot currently be used. Both myself and Matt spent a significant amount of time playing this today, and it was a lot of fun.
Credits
A small summary of those involved in actual development of the patch are as follows (visit https://github.com/R4Z0R49/DayZMod/blob ... elopers.md for the latest list). Many others helped with testing and such. Please get involved with the community development project! There is much being done, new features and content. Official support is also being made available to community development team members for some requests, where possible.
