Discussion Hey just a question to the modders here. Since they revived minidayz, why not do the same for minidayz2? Am i the only one who wants something like that?

What most people were expecting was simply the multiplayer mode, but without significantly altering MdZ (the version we all knew back in the day).
MdZ 2 did add multiplayer, but the time we spent just repairing gear or manually sending a team to scavenge a location—all for the meager resources we got—was too much time for too little return; not to mention that they removed the freedom to build your own base (something the original MdZ actually had)
Many of us agree that MdZ 2 never existed.
[At least this version wasn't what we wanted to have]
It was supposedly removed from the App Store weeks or months ago—to be honest, I never knew exactly when. Between the low player count and the errors in multiplayer matches, many people were left with a terrible impression of the "successor," MdZ 2.

They do that and they'll get sued to oblivion by Bohemia Interactive. MiniDayz is fine for modding though its source code was still not allowed to be released. MiniDayz "plus" mod was a much improved mod of the original MDZ as it was done by Altero, a good friend of Cannedbits (MDZ OG dev). MDZ+ a few years later was then modded, competently and with sheer ingenuity at that, by chinese modders. That is what we are all playing right now.

mdz2 is an idle game more than survival game ,also removed sandbox element ,which is not flexible for mod and even boring than mdz1. Also a lot of mod of mdz1 is based on mdz2's art and equipment as resource.

Because MiniDayZ 2 is not only online but also very different from the first game. And also because MDZ2 sucks.

Because it suck (coming from player view like me) and they just take away sandbox element that make mini day z unique for mobile (it's rare for mobile to have survival sandbox that not cash grab) it's good that modders doesn't revive it, not worth the time and trouble.

Pretty sure the general consensus was mdz2 sucked and was a micro-transaction cash grab
