Long long time ago, when dragons ruled the sky, there once was a developer who created a game. He was verry happy with his game, so he released its alpha version, fully bugged, but with beautiful graphic, and he decided that he will work on this game hard, releasing patches and bugfixes every month, so his game could become beautiful and some day go out of alpha and become playable, good and balanced game. But... the dark times have come. The developer become sick on mind. His sickness drowned him into darkness, and he was no longer the same. He forgot about his creation, leaving it on a cold stone deep in the mountain cave. The game, lying on the stone, cried for a first time, and all people who put their hopes in it cried with it.

The time have passed, world has changed, and everybody forgot about the game. The developer wend old, probably died or hidden somewhere in great forest, nobody knows. The game itself is now lost, noone cared about her for a long time, and it lays in ruin, being slowly consumed by the sickness of its creator. The legend says that some day someone will find that cave, take out the game to the daylight, fix it from the bugs that are poisoning it and flooding its veins, and the people will give their hearts to DayZ once again.

But, that's only a legend...
