is it worth the money because I've seen people say that it's a hundred times better than dayz and i've seen people say that it's a hundred times worse and I really don't want to waste my money since i'm cheap.

I payed less for this game than a movie ticket and I have had more than 2 hours of enjoyment out of it. The game got boring pretty fast and I moved on. Every time I look in this thread its full of people complaining about the game just move on and play something else if you don't like it. Why come and crap up the thread?

It gets frustrating seeing a bunch of people who have never played the game nor given it a fair chance bashing the game and saying things that aren't true. It gets annoying but I guess based on what you said I should just stay here and continue to put my self in situations that are frustrating for me?

No matter how many times I repeat something against a point, some other person repeats the same thing(example sergey made big riggs).

You are saying extremely silly things now and not making any sense. Have you tried the game? What do you not like about the GAME.

Someone said this on reddit:

So, because you have 20+ years of gaming experience, you think you know what you're talking about when it comes to game development? You think that's some sort of credibility? The way the hatred is being directed toward War Z IS just the bandwagon or, in other words, a hivemind. It's the popular trend to bash on this game right now when you haven't even played it.
Sure, everyone can have their opinion, but the farce that you and other flamers are putting on this game has potentially ruined the image of this game and confused a lot of potential players like the OP. You can feel like you're honest, and that's your opinion. But you have no facts to back it up. This is not a cash grab or a potential scam or anything close to a scam. They would not be issuing refunds if this was a scam.
I highly recommend you try this game out for yourself and not bother listening to the bullshit people like Switch296 tell you. The popular trend right now is to bash this game just because the rest of the internet is. Yes, Hammerpoint has made some strange decisions and yes their PR with sergey is questionable at times. Mistakes have been made also, sure. But, it doesn't mean that the game is a scam or cash grab.
This whole "lieing" bullshit has been taken entirely out of hand and blown up to such an extreme nit picky proportion, I'm ashamed that these people call themselves gamers. The vast majority of them I can bet have not played the game. It was already established that the steam release was a mistake and premature. Get the fuck over it internet. Play the fucking game or don't. If you don't like it, oh well and that's fine. But don't shit all over everyone else who actually does enjoy the game. It's one thing to have an unbiased opinion on a game. Yes, there are problems with it. But to take it as far as it has is petty and a piss poor excuse to show off a massively none existent epeen.
They've been making vast improvements to the game since the original alpha client and they listen to the community when changes are made. This is a very small team of independent developers and they've done a great job so far. It's as much a learning process for them as it is for us.
So OP, YOU play the game and YOU determine your opinion. I've gotten well over my $15 worth and it's quite an enjoyable game. Not only have I been able to play the game but also play a major role in the direction the game should go through my feedback with the developer along with everyone else testing. Remember that there is a difference between opinions and facts. The debacle behind the WarZ is mostly FEELINGS and OPINIONS portrayed in a way that could pass as believable facts.
For example
facts:
-There is a hacking problem in this game. Right now, it's not uncommon to get shot in the face from an unimaginable amount of distance
-The WarZ is still much in alpha with features still being added into the game over time
-There is little incentive to cooperative PVE play at the moment as they have not included the PVE elements yet.
This is called unbiased critiquing and these are points which I do not like about the game. From a game development standpoint, these need to be worked on.
possible opinions:
-The game is a scam/cash grab (witch hunters, flamers, and bandwagon)
-The hammerpoint devs are copying DayZ (development began before DayZ and for the love of god can we not have more games of the same genre???? i.e. silent hill and resident evil or doom and quake)
-The game is pay to win (learn what pay to win is before shouting it)
These are opinions formed by cliques, witch hunters, and flamers on the internet. These tactics are used to destroy the reputation of a game and/or its developer.There are also legitimate opinions that can be formed as long as they're within reason (that's kind of how game development.. well develops).
TLDR: Try the game out for yourself and don't buy into the bullshit flamers like switch296 and the rest of the internet feeds you.


Edit: I'm leaving this here and closing this thread for awhile because the amount of people here who are uninformed and just trying to bash the game is unreal.

You know what's frustrating? You assuming everyone here hasn't tried or seen someone try the game. You assuming that everyone is just jumping on the bandwagon. Guess what, most of the people here have played or watched the game being played. Guess what else? The Devs are nothing but trash, the company itself is trash. They're nothing but liars and scammers. The game is complete trash. You don't sell something that's in Alpha. You don't sell a "beta access" only and then force people to rebuy the game when you release it. You don't release a game with a list of features that don't exist, and will never exist. I could keep going but you should get the point right now. You're trying to lead a holy crusade supporting this game for god knows what reason, when in reality everyone knows how bad this is. This game should never see the light of day again, nor the money of another person.
