- About a year ago, I made a video on the very first alpha build for DayZ Standalone. I really enjoyed revisiting that era of the game and you guys also seemed to really like seeing the older build of DayZ. whether its from nostalgia or you actually miss the alpha days of the game, its undeniable how different those early years of the game were. So I decided I would revisit another one of my personal favorite alpha builds of the game and thats 0.62.
Thanks for watching!

old ambience brings me right back to being about 14 when 0.62 was around
Loved this video. Really brings up great memories. Have been playing this game for 9 years & still play it to this day. There is no other game like dayz! Thanks for the nostalgia hit my brotha
Glad you enjoyed it!
Would you say current DayZ is better?
4:01 I like the fact that they are not intuitive. It makes the experience more "survival" alike. Your character just saying "I'm hungry" and you have to deal with that. I find that cool
“You’re as beautiful as the day I lost you”
Enough to make a grown man cry
@@ItsAdventurerJaythe part I remember and loved most was the cannibal laugh, it sounded way more sadistic and insane, now it just sounds like someone’s told a really bad joke and your character has to fake laugh, and the Mr Moon RP videos were the backbone of my childhood, made me buy the game in the first place
@ mr moon is the GOAT. his DayZ videos are very nostalgic for me
im still hearing the chainlink fence noise in present day build.. lmao
You not getting killed by that car was amazing ha ha. Loved the video
I was expecting to die at any minute while driving it haha but the DayZ gods were with me
@@ItsAdventurerJay on console, 0.63, or even pc, the cars would go to the moon, lol first time i played dayz was on xbox the week it was on early access for console, switched to pc now xd
God I remember in the beginning when zombies could just casually walk through walls. Everyone was running around with the payday 2 masks on and hackers were everywhere. So many mechanics were broken. Yet somehow I have so many good memories of that. Haven’t played for 5 years, I imagine it’s way better now, but I have a lot of nostalgia for then
It was a buggy mess but it was our buggy mess ya know? 😂 it was just an experience you couldn’t get anywhere else. No other game felt like DayZ and no other game came close to giving you the same experiences/memories DayZ gave you
Man… took me back so many good fucking times in cherno. Met a lot of cool peeps. Lost touch with a lot of them. Man.. if I could rewind time to the alpha days. 10.5K hours.
0.62 and 0.63 was a major jump. I loved playing on the experimental branches and stress test servers.
Something’s lost somethings gained. But I can tell you nobody is calling that version of the game call of duty arcade garbage
If the devs would just make the gunplay a little harder in the current version that would help a lot.
@ yep and movement.
The foot work is really the most important part. If you fix the footwork it becomes obvious how dumb the gunplay is because their inconsistent with each other
Thank you for showing me this is possible. I'm having a wonderful nostalgia trip rn in this build. 69th like btw.
Glad I could help you enjoy some well needed nostalgia!
They really killed a lot of the vibes of old dayz by removing the ragdoll deaths. They could even just have the player ragdoll and then freeze after a bit so that the body doesn’t go anywhere. They should also bring back the old ballistics and make combat realistic again.
Yeah definitely. The hold breath mechanic in the game i hate very much. It feels like the gun has got no weight and is just perfectly dead centered on your target.
0.62 really felt like a survival game
Jay if you havent, you should make a video telling people they can still play this online. I'm trying to find a way to bring more people to it. It would be amazing to have a full server on 0.62 dayz.
I mentioned it in this video and my last one as well with links to the discord in the description. the problem is, a lot of people join the discords for these servers and end up not playing. This isnt the first time someones had a server for 62. a couple years ago there was a server that was even promoted by big dayz streamers who played on it for a couple days while streaming and it still didn't gain traction. People say they want to go back and play these versions but then they just never actually do when given the opportunity sadly. I don't think we will ever see the servers have more then a couple people on at time for that reason. I wish people would haha would be awesome to get the servers atleast half full but people play once and then never again
@@ItsAdventurerJay Sorry man I should've rewatched. I forgot you did mention them. But yeah you're right. I guess they get on once and realize nostalgia is the only reason they want to play if they even do lmao.
Running around with no shoes ment you could sneak anywhere. Feet weren't cut by anything. The weather didn't effect you whatsoever, no sickness. Zombies had no hearing or sight if your were crouched. You could hop servers and load your character behind a locked door and loot anywhere. Pure PvP
Music to my ears
I forgot about hopping servers. I remember people combat logging a ton which was super annoying.
No countdown timer to logging out so people would just disappear right in front of you haha
it felt like that back then, cuz we had no basebuildings. just pure pvp.
so, the same as day-z now? LOL great video
In some ways yes, it was definitely headed that way but it was completely different in a lot of other ways like the combat mechanics. But it’s not one big thing that makes it so different but a collection of small things like how your character runs or hits, to the bugs that became well known throughout the community like the apple glitch. It was just a different experience
@ItsAdventurerJay yeah haha I was only joking about how little support or updates the games gotten. It's rough to excuse a lot of the current state of the game even with its improvements. And there isn't another zombie game similar enough that meets its expectations to a updated standard imo
@ I agree, the game is better in some ways but it’s nowhere near the level it should be after all these years and I honestly believe it’s due to modding. The devs rely on the modding community way to much to make the game popular and to come up with ideas that they can later steal. But then again, that’s exactly how dayz started anyways haha it’s just an endless loop for Bohemia
0.62 is still my favorie - although I enjoy the Sakhal map
anyone remember going prone second floor of atc at north east af and glitching into the wall? dam man
Wasnt fortunate enough to play this early I started in 0.67
NEAF was never the same after 0.45. I don’t think anyone really went there in 0.62. Usually everyone in north east would go to Cernaya Polana, Novo, Kamensk Military, and Severograd side IIRC
I liked 0.62 but it wasn’t my favorite build. 0.45-0.59 were definitely my favorites.
.46 to .59 was PEAK standalone for me. I have so many good memories and nostalgia for those builds
Literally the best version of Dayz in my opinion... Goddddd.... the only thing I hated is that in this build the visibility went to shit and fog has been added
I want to go back in time. For several reasons. 😢
I want the old sound track back 😢
Omg ,😢i miss the time
I just wish they would rework dayzs current combat system and make it more challenging like the ilder versions
Idk about yall but unless its lagging i can drive fast everywhere
The new ui is closer th the original mod that this version
Not at all. The mods inventory system was way different
@ItsAdventurerJay i meant how you have the lil health pluse and the temp icon and that at the bottom right
True
I started playing stalker anomaly about 2 years ago. Dayz this fall. I can't imagine playing stupid single player scripted games anymore or not being able to create your own story in a multiplayer scenario. No interest at all in that anymore.
That’s why DayZ has always been my favorite game. It’s my story. No one else’s. Every life is different from the last
and now they cant afford ragdoll physics into their game is atrocious, old one looked way more better
Un-installed twice because of toxic ppl
