Guys, if you're thinking of getting this, I would seriously recommend waiting. It's not really evident from what people are saying, but this game is totally fucking broken. Shit will just disappear, dead people will appear standing, zombies walk through walls, ect ect. I just think, even though it is in Alpha, it's worth reminding people that the game really really is in an alpha state currently.

any regular TL servers, just bought it

This is so stupid, you don't own/play the game, yet you constantly argue with EVERYONE about it. Go away please. You are talking crap about me because I dislike your game. I am posting in here because the game just came out and I was debating on getting it. It is also very similar to the mod so I don't need to play it to suggest to someone not to play it. The guy said "should I buy the game if I did not like the mod because of the bugs". Even rocket himself would say no. Get over it. You are playing a game with nothing in it and feeling superior for no reason. By the way dayz made like 4 million dollars off sales. You are not special there is plenty of info out there through streams and stuff. Acting childish because I dislike the game you play. Now that is annoying. If you're debating whether you should buy it or not, you might want to realize you are NOT in the position to tell others if they can. All you're doing is post after post shitting on the game you haven't even tried, and then trash talk people who doesn't agree with you. If you don't realize why no one here likes you by now, you might want to take a quick course in human interaction. Edit: Here's another protip for you: We here in TL love our games. I mean LOVE. We have an erotic and passionate relationship with them. The people you are talking to right now are the very same who played the mod since the beginning because they love it. Do you really think, if this game was so bad, we wouldn't notice or try to hide it? If the game was unplayable, there would be pitchforks and witchhunts out by now. The very reason that there isn't one is proof enough that this game is decent, even in its buggy alpha state with no weapons and zombies. Edit2: Yes, I meant it when I said erotic. Sc2 is my old flame that I visit now and then, but quickly get disappointed when I realize she's not that good in bed. Dota2 is my S&M loving wife. Its painful every time..but I keep coming back for more because she knows I like it. Dayz is this girl who keeps getting prettier and prettier, and I can do her for hours and hours at end, sometimes all night. She just got a complete makeover, and she's not as good as she was because of it, but I can still do her for hours. LoL is my ex that just wont shut up about how many people she's doing. I hate that bitch.
Simple question. Why do I need to play it in order to say it is full of bugs? Does watching a stream and seeing the bugs vs playing the game and seeing the bugs make a difference? I don't think so.

Would read again and yeah you should stop arguing, seraphdd has a point in that the SA has less content and is buggy, but you could argue that ambiance, graphics, and atmosphere wise it's awesome, and also that they are working a lot on it, and the price will probably go up (I think that's what they meant by minecraft price model), so buying it now has it's pros too. But 2 pages of arguing are maybe too much :p

Theres never been any doubt that the game has bugs. Its plastered all over every buy button you can find. The question is wether these bugs are game breaking or if they make the game not fun. This you can't possibly answer without having tried it.
For the record, they're not. I've had a lot of bugs happen to me. At one point I clicked Tab to find out I had lost my entire backpack, and retracing my steps to see if I had accidentally tossed it off me didn't yield anything. Theres also this bug that tends to empty my magazines and throw away the bullets. And if you reload without space in your inventory, the entire clip goes byebye.. And yet I can sit here and tell you that if you had any interest in the mod, this game is fun. You can't possibly know that seeing as you haven't played it. Thats why you can't tell anyone else if they should buy it, because you simply don't know. And you CERTAINLY can't start trash talking people who then tell you that you're wrong.

Seriously though, they should start adding more zombies. I have closer to 400 bullets right now that needs wasting, and I don't feel like going to the southern cities just to pop unarmed people who have just spawned like so many others seems to find hilarious.

But 2 pages of arguing are maybe too much :p
Seraphdd is correct in saying there is more bugs and less content than some of the different versions of the mod and I don't think any people that own the game would argue with this point. What we would argue with however is the fact that he accuses the dev's of being dishonest and scamming people. I don't think Rocket could have been any more ethical in the way he released the alpha, it is plastered everywhere to expect bugs and he has done very little to hype it up (i.e just releasing it on steam with no warning). Each time you load the game you have to click a box that tells you that it is very early alpha- it is impossible to miss. It is also plastered on the page when you purchase it off steam,
I can only speak for myself but I find the alpha runs fairly well, is fun, has new features none of the mods have and has a large potential further down the development line. What made the mod fun was the realism and the uniqueness of a first person shooter/survival sim- the new features will only add to the realism and the devs have already done 3-4 updates since release.
By all means if your expecting a game that is greatly superior to the mod then do not buy it yet, but to suggest it is a rip off and no fun without playing it at all is disingenuous. The alpha as it stands is very playable and enjoyable for most.

What does the pristine/worn/etc. value of an item do in practice? I know that i.e. a badly damaged item is going to look more worn down than a pristine one, but does it have any effect on the effectiveness of weapons or food?

Unsure about all items but things like scopes have cracks etc. in the lens if damaged which makes them very hard to use.

I don't think its implemented yet. As far as I have seen, the only object really affected by this are sights on weapons. They range from fine to cracked to completely useless depending on the state. Also things like matchbooks will have more matches in them if they are of better condition. But otherwise I can't find any difference between "ruined" and "pristine" food cans, or any kind of ruined of pristine clothes or medical equipment.

Hmm a friend had problems using ruined medical equipment, I think it was disinfecting stuff that turned out to make him sick. As said above the weapon scoped are broken when not in a good state (the broken glass looks amazing by the way, as do scopes in general), and axes may do less damage? but not sure about the last. edit : oh, also had a gun that wouldn't work at all. I just got killed by a guy with an axe while i was browing my inventory thinking my friend had me covered, and he hit me in the chest, where the gun was holstered. It wouldn't work at all after, and when I picked up a new one it was fine. So even though there isn't a durability noted on weapons, it seems to work anyway.

lol I was strolling through the northern city of Kamenka when suddenly 5 zombies appeared behind a building. I nearly shat myself. This was the highest amount of zombies Ive seen in a clutter since I started playing xD

Spartacus and I had some fun tonight at Belota airfiled, among many players we've met this lovely lad who was camping police station. He already got me once so we've planned the revenge, an assault and beat down by a pair of young and proud women. He clearly got scared. Cover your ears for the girly screams. http://www.twitch.tv/jusik001/c/3429738

For one, zombies are fairly broken right now (can't walk up stairs, walk through walls, ect) that I'm happy with the few there are. Also I think the reason there aren't many right now is because they're is still working out a way to allow more zombies without creating any performance issues on the server.
My current problem has to do with encountering anyone else. I've been hanging out around the sobor towns and at the NW airfield and have yet to come across anyone since I found a guy looting in electro. The closest I came to any other player since was a dead body in one of the airfield baracks. He had some nice loot too. Now all I'm doing is looking for screwdrivers so I can open up canned food and keeping a supply of water. I'm considering playing the mod some more, even though going back to that inventory system is painful, simply because not enough is going on. Once they add more gear and vehicles and such I think the standalone will begin to get a lot more fun, but currently the alpha version of the game is what it is: an alpha version meant for testing.

Just ripped on my first char that lasted more than 15 minutes, I lasted 6 hours and 30 minutes solo, but I couldnt regenerate health for some reason and since I was solo I had no one to apply my blood bags for me. (also I found like 5 first aid kits but no blood test kits?) I got hit from a bugged zombie and I seem to be permanently unconscious, kinda sucks because I was pretty loaded, like 10 cans of food, food opener, tons of water, 100 ammo and 2 guns and tons of medical stuff
|
If I wasn't so poor I would get standalone.
Think it will go on sale anytime soon? One can only hope.
