Bohemia To Halt Development of DayZ Bounty Mod

The mod undermines the vision according to member of the original game.

Posted By | On 07th, Nov. 2012

According to a report by VG247, Bohemia Interactive plans to halt the development of DayZ Bounty Mod. What’s the reason you may ask?  Bohemia are not very happy with the gambling slant that this Bount Mod introduces.  The mod pays players with the help of  PayPal when they kill someone in the game.

The mod undermines the original vision according to member of the original game.

“The DayZ development team and Bohemia Interactive is not involved or has had any contact with with DayZ Bounty and it’s creators,” the developer said to VG247.

“While we fully support modifications created by the community, to improve the gaming experience for players of DayZ and ArmA II, we do not support their creators putting a cost on them. As commercially exploiting their small additions to DayZ undermines the work done by the original team.”

They plan to stop the development of this mod by contacting the developers.

“We will be contacting the owners of the DayZ Bounty website directly over the coming days, to ask that they cease their activities in their current form.”
