i've lost all hope in this
alpha or not, this will basically have to become a whole new game in order to be any good at all
We must not lose hope, brothers. War Z will rise from the ashes of an alpha stage.
The videos leave a shitty taste in the mouth similar to the way War Inc leaves one.
It's Alpha yeah, but still, to be honest I don't think they're going to make dramatic improvements.
I honestly doubt it will get much better than it looks right now
What are you guys losing hope over? (Honestly, I haven't been following development very well)
Its better than Big Rigs, that much is certain.
Have my 'cheap cashout' statements been proven right yet, or do I have to wait another month?

I'd say you'd have to wait until its released, way too much hype behind it.
That may have been some of the most disappointing "gameplay" footage I've ever seen. There's no tension, there's no threat, and we haven't seen PVP or even more than one live zombie at a time. The only thing I came away with is that they have the capacity to take a bunch of ideas from other stuff and throw them together in a haphazard and poorly implemented fashion.
Maybe it will completely surprise everyone, but I'm not getting my hopes up until they decide to show off something that's actually interesting.
I have the most dissapointed boner now, my dick has lost all hope for this game
Hah, I knew from the beginning that the game was going to be a massive disappointment.
It looks worse than DayZ at its current state and I don't think it's going to improve.
it's sad that we're not going to get a good game in this genre until -MAYBE- dayZ standalone, because this looks like shit, dayz today is shit, and it's not like it's going to improve a lot anyway, so I won't get my hopes up.
How does it look bad?
[QUOTE=Hellohmhello;37686313]How does it look bad?[/QUOTE]
the viewmodels and weapons look like they're taken from another game, the game didn't look too much like dayZ at first but it seems like it's trying to be dayZ now, the animations are meh, the zombie models are weird, they look like city 17 citizens reskins, the way they start sliding and flying around as soon as they die as if they were made of paper...
They said the game has been in development for a long time now, like over a year. They twitted or posted something along the lines of "We're going to take pictures of actual vegetations to make our sprites" and such. idk, for alpha footages of something that has been in development for over a year, especially with so much assets taken from that other game, it's looking pretty bad. I don't mind them using assets but seriously did they took one year to put assets into a map??

I mean come on this looks like a mod, not an actual game
I was excited for an actual game, where things would have been thought for a GAME
see what doesn't work with dayz most of the time is that it's based on arma
I get the same feeling with this
All hope is lost, abandon shit.
guys it will be good i know it!!!
Abandon thread to State of Decay then?
state of decay looks like an actual game at least

Go go go.
I don't care what you guys think but IMO it looks a lot of fun.
[QUOTE=BigBoom;37686681]Abandon thread to State of Decay then?[/QUOTE]
That's singleplayer only, sadly.
It's not. State of Decay is online.
Edit: I think at least.
Really? I thought the next game by the same developers was going to be multiplayer, but not this one

I am not sure, I know a while ago they were advertising it as online or something? When it was called Class 3.
yeah and class 4 was supposed to be some kind of mmo wasn't it?

Class 3 is State of Decay and it's 100% singleplayer. Class 4 will be their next game which will build upon State of Decay and will be an MMO or some kind of online thing.
I would not buy it in this state, not even for 2 doshZ.
They showed the worst part of the worst of the game in these 3 videos... what were they thinking? I was disgusted about so many things in these videos, what the fuck why would anyone buy it at this state and still hope to get an better game? The viewmodels are so horrible ough.
Honestly I didn't see TOO much wrong with the game from those videos..
but:
The crawling animations were shit
Zombie numbers were really low
Loot tables need re-adjusted because he found like 5 guns in there
Basically, it's an alpha and it needs some work.

I agree with you sir, the hype for this reached a peak with the first two videos and dropped down here, we knew about most of the things you guys are stating and of course it's not gonna look as exciting in the IGN videos (he's in the middle of a damn forest of course there isn't going to be a lot of zombies) as for the whole viewmodel thing and such, I've seen worse, much worse. I do however agree with the whole ragdoll zombie thing, that needs to go but that might change in the beta much like the loot spawns, I don't know rate me rainbows.
