I haven't kept up with updates for a long time; has there been any notable progress?
Did the development completely crash when Rocket left?

I bought a copy a long time ago, and now have a decent PC that could actually run it well. I was wondering if it's even worth trying out again.

No

Not worth playing again or not completely fucked?

No, just no

So no to worth playing again?

That's a shame. It was such a promising project and idea.

Just pay $30 for the Arma 3/DayZ mod known as PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds.  Been having more fun with that.

How does it differ from DayZ? Does it have a "premise" like DayZ's zombie apocalypse?

Do you get the varied player interactions that made DayZ interesting?

There's a singleplayer version for ArmA 3 called Ravage: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=29638

What drew me to DayZ was the interactions between players, so a solely PvE game wouldn't interest me.

I appreciate the recommendation, though.

Last time i played DayZ there werent even any zombies. Its completely fucked. If you want the kind of player interaction try the Wasteland mod for Arma 2.

Basically Battle Royale.  You can get a squad together or go solo, get in an airplane, drop off at a random location and start looting for weapons and gear, and struggle to survive against about 100 other people as a barrier slowly closes in around you.

That's pretty cool, I might get that.

DayZ has been in "early access" for 4 fuckin' years now. It's just a big scam.

^ This.

BI is taking advantage of Steam's Early Access system and laughing all the way to the bank with it.  Sure they most likely had big, ambitious projects for the game, but when they saw how much money they made, they went the AngryJoe way and promised updates while in reality they were just being lazy as fuck.  They made their money, they don't need to work on the game anymore.

EDIT: Supposedly the game is going to be entering beta soon.  Wonder if that'll be 4 years too.

DOUBLE Edit:  I'm seeing posts that say once the game leaves Early Access you can actually refund the game.  Hope enough people do this to wipe out Bohemia's bank account.

That's the beauty of it - it can be modified for multiplayer servers, though I'm not sure about the server availability of it atm.

For larger ones, Exile or Epoch are the big multiplayer ones that basically follow the same stem as DayZ
