At first, I was reluctant to kill someone. I didn't even want to. But then I made one character to be the "bandit" and when I killed someone, I couldn't stop.
The excitement of a new prey.
The thrill of the kill.

Too good. I killed someone and he dropped like 5 shotguns. I hit the money shot right there.

New content unlock is due tomorrow, increasing the map 30-40% and a slew of other things being patched in including clan support. Should be fun!

Bought this game Friday and have played for 4-5 hours with a pal. It's definitely a game you wanna enjoy with someone else and I can't wait for clan support and a friends system.
Well, right now it's a very buggy game and there's a lot of things here and there that needs to be fixed in some way, but I still think it's fair to make a judgement on the core gameplay of the game and all I can say about it is that it's INTENSE! I died several times at the beginning because it took me a while to figure out how easily you get killed by both the zombies but, and definitely not least, other players as well - if you aren't careful! It's relatively easy to sneak around both zombies and players but if you get overzealous (which we did, when we found a shotgun lol) you'll get into serious trouble and probably be shot or overrun by hordes of zombies. We got shot by some cunt who had heard us blasting through town with out new beloved shotgun, so he hid behind a fence and waited for us... It can be very frustrating to lose all your new gear, but that's part of what makes it so adrenaline-pumping.
Is it worth the $25? It depends on what you expect. I've been wanting a game like this for a long time without it being a mod based on a game I can't stand and so far I've had tons of fun with it, and I can't wait for them to improve on it.

If anyone has a spare guest beta key, I would very much appreciate an opportunity to try this game out! ^_^
|
any veterans have any advice on where to go when you're just starting out?
|
Started the game today, played for several hours with some friends. Was a blast, can't wait to play it more and see what else they might add in. I didn't see any game breaking bugs so far, it seems polished enough for a beta.
|
Game seems quite arcadeish compared to Day-Z, the guys from the vid could care less about spraying their guns, like, firing a loud sniper has little to no consequence and there's plenty of ammo around.
Also, softcore/hardcore modes are kinda lame.
|
I'd play this if it manages to be more action packed than dayz. I played dayz with 2-3 buddys and we always were fighting in elektro/tcherno. It was the most fun when there were other teams to play against. Then they patched the bug so zombies could hear 'normal' again, and restricted the respawn, what pretty much killed that.
So I hope this game will offer possibilities to have fun (= pvp) without running around 30minutes first. E.g. fighting/raiding other gangs strongholds.

Entirely true. Where DayZ is built on a military sim engine, this is not. Firing a loud sniper won't pull zombies from extremely far away, but it will pull them, and it WILL attract other players.
Plenty of ammo around? What the fuck? Where? I have to kill people to find ammo.
Edit: It appears you haven't played the game and have made a judgement based upon an edited video. Never mind.
Double Edit: I do wish it was a little less arcadey, though. I love DayZ almost specifically b/c of how it tries to be realistic.

Im watching a vod from brotatoes stream since i couldnt find any livestreams on twitch. dayz had some running streams. Im just 5 minutes in that game but i already hate that you can spawn with weapons from the global inventory and he had like 20 weapons there already.
is this call of duty? thats so boring if you start already with weapons. Wheres the fun in finding weapons then and actually surviving if you can just respawn?
stupid concept.

Your initial character starts with nothing. Running around with your guy you can find more weapons than you can use, so you can go to certain zones which give you access to global inventory. You can place these weapons inside the global inventory and spawn your new guy with them. How is this different than a well hidden tent except you don't have to run forever if you get a bad spawn?
Edit: WarZ is also under NDA until Nov. 4th unless you have dev permission. So there's a reason you couldn't find a stream.

^It's different from a well-hidden tent because people can still find a well-hidden tent. The fact that it's even possible to start with weapons is a complete joke.
Speaking of which, how is this game itself not a complete joke?
They charge you 30 bucks for beta access? They charge you respawn faster? They charge you for weapons? In beta? All based on the most obviously stolen idea for a game, possibly ever? How can you possibly play this game and not realize that the developers of this game are literally only trying to make a quick buck?

To those saying you can find guns/ammo easy you are sooo very wrong. It is nearly impossible to find ammo and guns are infact yes rare. That being said I have been having soo much fun playing since this update, it is AMAZING!
Risen where you been bro? Are you going to start running with us again?
Edit: Just read the poster above me, they don't charge you to respawn faster to the best of my knowledge and they don't charge you for guns...You can not buy guns in this game? The hell are you talking about lol? The game isn't a joke stop being a troll and actually research the game, thanks. You can start with weapons IF you found them on other characters and saved them, which is fine for trading because Weapons/ammunition is soo extremely rare its not even funny.
They are trying to make money, that is correct when people make games it is usually to make money off of it. That is how business works to the best of my knowledge. If you think they are just trying to scam people for money you are sadly mistaken, they update the game nearly every day constantly do content updates and bug fixes constantly making it better.
It seems really obvious you know nothing of this game and you are just trying to troll so please stop.

It's fairly clear you have no idea what you're talking about. I never had any of my tents accessed. They charge you thirty bucks for alpha access, beta access, and then the actual game. You do know the game costs money right? And you're pretty much pre-ordering by buying it early and getting into alpha/beta. But you continue on with your ignorance. They charge you respawn faster? Wtf is that about? I have no idea what you're talking about, but I actually PLAY the game. You clearly do not. Everything you spend in beta is refunded. So again, you have NO FUCKING CLUE what you're talking about.
How can you be such a fucking idiot. It blows my mind.
Edit: I've literally had time to log on and derp around for thirty minutes at a time between work/projects and shit for like a week straight. This weekend I wasn't able to get on at all between projects/magic shenans I was doing. Trying to find time to play games isn't as easy as I wish it was  Should be calming down for me come November, though.

Risen, where have you been? Msg me on skype when you get on.
Edit: Since they optimized the game I went from having 20 fps to my cap of 80(I had 20 on LOW and now i have 80 on ultra)
