But when the world has gone to hell and there are practically no more rules, ignorant and blood-thirsty humans are the biggest threats. It makes sense, ever seen/played Walking Dead?
Though really zombies in this game aren't even a threat since you can outwalk them, the only problem is getting them off your tail.
Finally got a chance to go into the City. I was looting a sort of hotel building (the fully explorable one near the military quarantine), when I see someone asking on global if loot still drops off of players when they die. Then I see him chatting on Proximity Chat with someone else about the "nice shots" they were making. I should have bolted out of that building, but I was so close to the top I wanted to see if I would find a weapon or something. Got sniped instead, the bastard who killed me bragging about how he was on the opposite side of the map. And I had such a nice haul of food and bandages (I even found a med kit!), too.
Zombies in the game look extremely hacky and buggy, Killing them and seeing their bodies fly up then glitch to the ground makes them look terrible. Zombies should also have better animations, as they are a main idea of the game.
[QUOTE=Tacosheller;38130709]Once again, zombies should be a large threat, but not the only threat.

I'm not saying they should be the only threat. I'm saying they're supposed to be the larger threat in the big picture. Nobody here is saying you're wrong certainly not me, i simply beleive that in a situation where every death joins the other side as a combatent, internal conflict and guns turned on eachother, While should be fairly common, killing eachother instead of the undead that out number you would be fucking yourselves over if you want to attain any definition of the word "survival". Other than that i think we can just agree to disagree.

This game needs dynamic VOIP. That is all.
[QUOTE=luckycandy;38130660]The incentive is making the zombies more powerful to the point where teaming up with strangers gives you a better chance of surviving than going it alone. You make the zombies a backdrop to force player interaction instead of using them as an incentive to encourage unity and you've already lost. Ether way if you didn't want zombies to be the focus of a zombie survival game why did you buy it in the first place? Am i the only one who sees this logic as flawed?[/QUOTE]
No, it's hard enough to play by yourself as it is. I don't think they should be more powerful, they're annoying as fuck when they work and they group up behind you and follow you for a long ass time and if you stop you die.

To something someone said earlier about legend players getting the last three spots on servers, that is not true. Me and my friends all got legends accounts, but any server with more than 26 or 27 players on says it is full. I think the last slots are reserved for quick join or something, but they are definatly not for legends players.
Anyway, I just met the most awesome player today. He was walking around K-town with the Vicent skin, a construction hat, and a hammer, and he was killing every zombie there. He apparently knew excactly where to hit, as he killed them in like two to three hits. He saved like a fuckton of people, and somehow survived being shot at so insanely many times, often while he was standing there point blank, and just told the guy to do it, and see if he could kill him. Me and another guy he saved were walking with him, and we asked him what to call him, as his character name was some long shit i dont remember. He said this: "You can call me Bob. Bob the builder". He never used anything but that hammer, and he saved so many people, with me and the other guy following him. Eventually, a sniper got us from behind, and as the last man standing, he stood still, looked in the direction the sniper was, and said "Do it, faggot". The sniper shot, and he fell down, dead. Stuff like this is really awesome, especially when there are so many bandits.

Yeah I spawned on this character and joined a server where a zombie was inhabiting the house I was hiding out in...

I implore you Facepunchers, does anyone have a spare key available so I can try this game out? I am very apprehensive to do so without at least playing it for a small amount of time first. Any help would be appreciated.
This game is getting more popular as the days go on.

You're better off waiting for the 31st and asking, because the beta keys are free, right now you have to preorder to get in.
God damnit Ricen' you and your awesome eyes and hacking skills i know you meant well and protected us.. but damn that was a friendly. Also them flares man, almost got us killed. :smile:
Ricen, can spot a head in the the darkness peeking through a window the second they spawn in, yet cant throw a flare out of a window.
it took me 7 character spawns but i finally found a good place to loot, got a bat, a few drinks, some food a hatchet and a hammer as well med bagpack
previously i had found binoculars but a zombie took me off while i was bussy

The game is going to get hacked to shit when the beta keys become free.. no monetary loss to a ban.
I finally decided to buy the pioneer package, since I knew I was going to want this game eventually. I like it a lot, but the zombies are just stuck in place everywhere I go and it's really weird. But it's in Alpha so really what do you expect.

The final product won't be free though, and since receiving a ban will mean being totally barred from the game (unlike in DayZ, where there are very little consequences and even less prevention of hacking to begin with) there'll naturally be less hackers from the start. So that's a pleasant thought, right?

Pretty sure some cunt with a similar name to that killed my character for no reason. The one I mentioned in my last post in this thread. Dammit, that was the first time I ever got a decent haul in this game and that cunt just shoots me dead from across the map. I yell at him "Ha ha, so funny to shoot people who weren't even threatening you" and he goes "haha everyone threatens me".
I hope his character gets horribly mauled by Zombies and all his ill-gotten goods lost forever.

There isn't any anti-cheat though, his protection is making certain stuff serverside. There are already free to use wallhacks, aimbots that aren't detected. I was affected by it.. some guy was somehow killing people a Km away instantly earlier and I lost my character.
You can't compare this game to DayZ, DayZ cost $0 and WarZ cost $30+

Anyone have a suggestion on good servers?
Been having amazing luck lately. My most equipped character has survived for about five hours of gameplay so far and I have a spiked bat, m4 auto with ammo, and mauser with ammo, but never enough goddamn food.
Killed two people today as well. One I found out was innocent but my crys of "stay back or I'll shoot" weren't respected so he had it coming.
The other was a rewarding moment. Someone in proximity chat had obviously just been killed by a bandit "fag, ruining this game" or something along those lines. I asked him who killed him.
"guy in a black mask with a spiked bat."
Not a second later I turn the corner and poking out from inside a dumpster... a guy in a black mask with a spiked bat. He immediately went prone but I jumped up on a nearby car to get a good angle.
"say goodnight, bandit."
After looting him I went around the corner and stumbled upon the body of the innocent he'd killed surrounded by a large amount of flash lights. I arranged them around the body as respectfully as a flashlight tomb can be. RIP

What about when dayz standalone is released?
I hope you enjoy seeing every player equipped with a ghillie suit and AS-50 with 50 mountain dews in their backpacks..
Arguements and comparisons mean nothing to me so far. When WarZ is out of Beta and the DayZ Standalone are both out, then I'll start paying attention.
Until then, I have fun playing whichever one I feel like.

But standalone isn't out, and it won't have these problems because they're locking down the engine.
He said a low price, with Minecrafts business model so it should cost even less then WarZ yet have more content. The DayZ alpha is over, and it was free. I don't even understand what you're getting at here..????
