They didn't add in cars or skill trees but they did add in a new anti server hopping method that allows you to be spawn killed most of the time. They also never added in those lockers that were suppose to show "DayZ's buggy tents" up. | ||

They took it out and issued refunds because they were blatantly lying on the features list. Apparently they removed the lies now, which would mean that it is ok with steam. The quality of the game itself is not a major concern for steam, there are lots of bad games on steam. | ||

IMO there is a difference between a game thats boring to play and has a shitty story but few bugs compared to something that straight up lied and still is like a walking alpha version....  | ||

The whole thing was a PR stunt. The screenshots are still blatantly not from the game and some of the features listed are still false advertising. | ||

It sounds more like Hammerpoint Interactive suffers from terrible marketing and PR management. I quit because there was a massive hacker problem, 3 of my friends got banned who hadn't played the game past the first day and obviously never hacked. Than when I watched my friends decide to play they spent 30 minutes grouping up just to switch server and die to a entire clan of spawn campers. I didn't give a **** about their bad PR, what I cared about was the trash changes they made, not fixing hackers, banning random people and being arrogant douchebags in response to people asking questions. | ||

All sounds like terrible PR management. I haven't seen any hackers yet, just a bunch of people in global chat spamming hackers. Haven't been banned either. Spawn camping is an issue but it can be easily fixed. For now whenever I need to go to/leave a safe zone I just go to an empty server. | ||

If you are playing on servers that have like 3 people on it, sure you might not, but there is such a high hacker population in this game. After a while you are gonna get bored so fast looting a city with stupid amt of zombies in it and hoard all your stuff you won't use on 10+ populated servers | ||

I don't doubt I'll see a hacker either. I generally try to play on populated servers for the legit experience. | ||

If you don't die to a hacker its because you didn't have a good weapon equipped so they consider you a noob and let you run around. If you ever got out with a nighstalker or a sniper or any other rare weapon you will die 100% to a hacker. Also the majority of players use free hacks including ESP which is harder to notice. | ||

The game isn't legit, or the hacking problem isn't legit? It sounds like the game could be enjoyable if the hackers were dealt with. | ||

It sounds like the game could be enjoyable if the hackers were dealt with. it still suffers from a massively boring endgame once you understand the mechanics. it's a combination of boring, floaty fps pvp and boring, tedious zombie murdering wrapped up in a cynical microtransactional model and an intentionally unrewarding loot system so that when you finally get that scar or blaser (I played for a few weeks before the steam fiasco and never found either), you can run around feeling satisfied for a while until someone inevitably takes it from you. you'll get your money's worth out of it, but I desperately wish I'd put my $25 into the walking dead or hotline miami or something, a game with a soul or at least honestly interesting gameplay. | ||

This patch involving skills was definitely not enough to get me playing again. The skills are poorly integrated into the game. Of course skills shouldn't make it where you will have a major advantage over other players (which they probably didn't think about and luckily hit) but skills are way too lame. Didn't add anything different to the game. palm to the face | ||

Apparently hackers have everyones account info and passwords/emails. If you use the same password for WarZ as you do other stuff I would change it just to be safe. I don't know if its true or not but its best to be safe imo. | ||
