Bonsant World – DayZ on Deer Isle

We run a community-focused DayZ server that’s built around survival and immersion. It’s mostly PvE with specific PvP zones, so players can choose the style they enjoy. The server uses DayZ Expansion for missions and base building, along with a mix of custom weapons, vehicles, and gear. Updates are frequent and everything is maintained in-house—there’s no monetization, just a homelab setup for the community.

Features:

Map: Deer Isle

PvE with PvP areas

Expansion AI missions and base building

Custom gear and vehicles

Balanced stamina and survival settings

Traders and economy system

Regular updates and feedback-driven changes

Server hardware:

Whiteforest: HP Z2 G8 SFF – i5-10500, 64GB DDR4, NVMe SSDs for fast load

Citadel: Supermicro SC823 – Dual Xeon E5-2697v3 (28 cores / 56 threads), 192GB DDR4 ECC, large storage capacity

We’re a group of long-time DayZ players who used to play a lot of Epoch and wanted to create something in that spirit: survival with challenge, optional PvP, and plenty of content to explore.
