Will have online play only.
Can play solo if wanted, but can team up to 4 people atm.
20-30ish players per server.
4x as big as Fallout 4.
Release date: November 14 2018.
Standard game will cost about 60$
Private servers and mods will be able added sometime after the release.
When you logout, your "base" disappears and pops up again when you login, unless something is blocking the location, then you get a blueprint for your base parts.
If your base gets attacked/nuked, you will not lose anything and can repair at a low cost.
PVP seems to be optional, some way of asking for combat.
Buy dayz now since its cheaper now, but i would wait a bit more before starting to play, there are no tents or vehicle, so after you have gotten urself geared there is not much todo unless you are totaly new to the map and wanna explore (and i guess killing ppl).
