A team of modders is currently working on an interesting mod for Far Cry 3 that is inspired by Day-Z and Left 4 Dead, and is called… Z-DAY. Z-DAY is a fully fledged singleplayer campaign playable through the Far Cry 3 Map Editor after installing mod and map files. The campaign will consist of multiple singleplayer missions very much inspired by games like Left4Dead, but with a Far Cry twist to them.
As the team noted, the maps are all built from the ground up using assets at hand.
“Z-DAY will not merely be a bunch of maps or a mod alone though. It’s as close to a completely new game as you can get. The campaign will include an immersive soundtrack, cinematic cutscenes, custom sound effects and voiceover work.”
Z-DAY is set to be released Q3 2014 and is currently in closed pre-alpha phase. Its open beta phase will launch this March.
Here the key features of Z-DAY:
– Lots of gameplay variety –
– Never-before-seen locations –
– Cinematic cutscenes –
– A unique storyline –
– Custom models –
– A fun mixture of linear and nonlinear level design –
– An exclusive soundtrack by White Noise Wave Ltd –
– Custom sound effects by BombadeerStudios –
– Special weapons courtesy of Fino’s Mod –
– Destructibility and physics elements –

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
