[QUOTE=~ZOMG;37198763]Kind of off topic, but "it's free" isn't a valid excuse for a game being shit. A game can be shit regardless of how much you pay.[/QUOTE]
Yea, but free games can also be great. Blacklight Retribution is a great example, for me at least, its a really fun game and looks good.
OP: Can you add the new twitter/facebook screenshots... they look epic and promising.

Supposedly the keys are to be handed out sometime tonight.
I'm not really sure when or how one gets chosen, something about twitter.
Sorry, I don't like using The WarZ forum much, too many annoying people there.
where did you get that information from?

[QUOTE]YAY we did it! We will announce winners by Monday evening! Thanks to everyone that helped us achieve this great milestone! [/QUOTE]
Winners, keys, basically the same. Nothing about when beta starts though.
Didn't get anything, so I'm guessing it's a select few.
It's to 100 people that are chosen.
Just put up.

What is everyone opinions on how the developers are copying a lot of stuff from war inc into the The War Z. I find it a bit lazy in my opinion and maybe even unprofessional I guess.
Developers do it all the time. Just look at CoD 4 assets in MW3. It can be a bit lazy, but how many ways are there to model a warehouse? Why waste development time recreating models that you've already created when 95% of the people won't even notice / care

Please refer to the previous five pages and swiftly leave before another massive argument breaks out.

Also, "unprofessional"? How can it be "unprofessional" when so many professionals do it. Don't be a Zeldar, bro.

Exactly, I'd rather have developers spending time adding new gameplay features to a game instead of being forced to add stuff like textures, sounds, physics and particle effects from the bottom up aganin.

Fair enough point.
They can re-use assets all they want, if the gameplay is drastically different from WarINC i see no issues at all.

That's what I worry about.

Perhaps you worry about it a [B]bit[/B] too much.
They are 2 completely different games, just the fact that it reuses some of the older models doesn't make the gameplay itself all the same.
[QUOTE=zeldar;37230783]That's what I worry about.[/QUOTE]
WarINC has zombies, a giant open world, 200+ people per server, many survival aspects, vehicles, time of day and weather effects?
If yes, then your worries are justified.
DayZ copied The War Z

Oh, so you're saying someone cant take a bunch of guns from another game and change them to work in a more realistic way?

No I'm saying they already have the assets from War Inc. so I don't see why they would significantly change much regarding recoil and such with the code already there when they could be working on other features.

Holy dumb fuck.
If they wanted to change around characteristics of weaponry from a similar game engine, why not? It's not like it would be hard considering they have modeling, mapping, texture work, so why should they not waste a little bit of time on code to make guns handle and react better.

I know one really good reason for them to change everything around: [b]They don't want to make a zombie mod for War Inc.[/b] Jesus Christ, you've gone so far beyond pessimism you've reached stupidity.
[editline]14th August 2012[/editline]
War Z is going to be its own game, which means wanting a different feel when you play it. Which means changing around the way weapons feel and react. This is not rocket science, it is not hard to figure out.

Or then he wants to make us think that he is trolling us so we wouldn't think he is so dumb.
I answered everything I could but worries are going to be worries. I think zeldar is a soccer mom in real life.
I worry about this game's future. Taking a look at the forum, I fear this game will die because them.
Just constant spam messages and such to get a boost in post count.
Maybe a zombie apocalypse themed universe is not supposed to have a functioning community.
