DayZ is going to be its own game, rocket is leading the development at Bohemia Interactive.
They will be using the minecraft development style according to the news.
personally, I love dayZ, just stay away from the coast and you should be NP. For some reason I like the Winchester levergun over some other guns, easy to find ammo beats full auto any day.
Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts... perhaps the fear of a loss of power.
