The WarZ October 15th Release

ive got twz and i prefer it over dayz.
the game is still in alpha its not a finished product yet.
its still got a few bugs like some meshes aint keyed into their surrounding land and invis walls that can send you flying.
the features that will come into the game though are what will make it better than dayz imo like the shop in safezones where you can sell your items you dot need, the player generated missions aspect should be a laugh too.
the items you can buy with real money on the market place dont give you any advantage and can be found in the game world anyway,
so the ptw aspect isnt really a issue or a game changer.
i had some good fights on dayz but so far on warz ive had more adrenaline pumping fights and encouners than dayz.
anti hacker scripts are now ingame and if you hack you will end up getting a perma ban, while ive seen loads of people moaning about hackers in the time ive logged up in game ive only seen one so i doubt its as widespread as people make it sound like.
updates for warz are happening very regular, sometimes daily.
map size currently isnt as big as dayz but they already stated the first map wont be as big as the next map which will be california, some areas of the current colorado map are still unacessable but their opening up new areas soon by the looks of it ad their also updating current map areas too, boulder city recently got more buildings which are enterable which it didnt have when it was first acessable.

If I were to say I'm suprised, your sarcasm detector would explode.

WarZ is a direct port over from War Inc. They literally took the game and added NPCs[...]

They randomly ban accounts that have a certain amount of time spent playing in-game, knowing they are hooked on the game so they re-buy the game.

Their anti-hack is actually functional but here's the kicker..wanna know WHY their bans are TEMPORARY the first time around? 0.8% hacking? Try an EXTREMELY LARGE PORTION of the player base is hacking. If they banned everyone they'd have a mass refund issue on their hands, and no one to play their piss poor of an excuse game.

they plan to HALT DEVELOPMENT AND ABANDON THE GAME in SIX months if revenue is not enough for them [...] They will have enough revenue to pay for the game development for over a year at this point in time already

they have said if u get banned there is no refund also your cc will be blocked from purchasing the game so you wont be able to rebuy it over and over again, same deal if you asl for a refund for any other reason.

None of which he has any proof of.
:P

I haven't played warZ, i was tempted but after reading about the hacking and false advertising, ill definitely give this a miss. I'm very surprised that steam took the game on

I bought it and boy was I disappointed. Absolute crap. First time playing, went through six characters in a few mins. They had only a few spawn points in that version, and people just camped them with their flashlights and beat you to death as soon as you spawned new.

Left it for a while and decided to give it a go again the other week, got insta killed several times by hackers.

Also, never met anyone in game that didn't instantly go on a rampage to kill you.

Trying to stay out of sight is an arduous process, the crawl speed in game is set to snail.

Most of the long standing players seem to have gathered large arsenals and just spend their time camping towns to kill all the fresh players that have nothing.

Only twice came across a player that didn't try to kill me immediately, though he basically just kept saying "Get out of my building" over and over until I was away from there.

Second player followed me for about 10 mins, he had only a flashlight. I was a bit weary because he would stop about 5 feet behind me whenever I would stop. So I kept a close eye on him, eventually I just stood there with a baseball bat until he left. Unfortunately he just turned around and used cover to sneak up on me and beat me with his flashlight before I realised he was there.

I'd say DayZ will be the go too once the standalone is released.

The internet wrath shall forever loom over this game's head. Everything the developers are doing is making the situation worse and worse, it's quite fascinating to see.

No matter what they do, this will be forever tainted by a large amount of the gaming community.

Anyways, I'd be pissed with a pay to respawn scheme after paying for a game that's not even nowhere near completion. In a F2P game, you can imagine such a gimmick but not in a supposed full retail game.

I played this about a month or so ago, thought it was decent for an alpha version... seems the developers have been trying their best to turn it to complete **** then?

Must be laughing all the way to the bank, no one is that stupid/ignorant without meaning it.

I wonder if Valve will continue to provide this game on Steam... given the **** that's flying on their forums over there... I suppose money talks in the end.

State of the art graphics!

Haha that reflected speed sign is quite surreal.

Steam have released a statement



Basically they didnt do their due diligence in checking this mess out before allowing it on steam, thats how you properly apologise without blaming your customers, not that hard really is it?

My confidence in Steam and Valve has been shaken a bit by this, but their reaction goes some way to fixing that.
