    What I am curious about is are they using the Arma 2 engine still or not if any case my question to them would be.

    What were the limitations during the mod produced branching off of Arma 2, That aren't a problem with the stand alone version of Day Z.

    To what extent do you intend to facilitate users wanting to create custom maps of other content for the standalone version of DayZ?

    I don't know if this has already been asked/addressed since I dont follow the Dayz community, but are there any plans to counter act the infamous server hopping 'technique'?; and if so, how exactly would you follow up on doing that?

    In a not-so-recent interview with a well-known youtuber named GassyMexican you said you want to make DayZ more minecraft like; how do you plan on doing so?

    Most likely it'll be "free" to play then suddenly a greedy game maker appears and slaps a fat price tag on the game and or updates......
