I've been following the thread for a while and I'm a little confused. You guys wanted a zombie survival MMO and that's exactly what this is. I mean the videos weren't that bad, especially compared to the state of DayZ. Most of the problems I saw could be easily fixed by beta. What were you guys really expecting to see? I saw exactly what was expected; footage of an alpha game. Sounds like you guys just over-hyped it for yourselves. I also doubt there are gonna be that many zombies in the middle of a forest..
You guys are overreacting this game can still be swag

[QUOTE=Onirik;37687718]yeah and class 4 was supposed to be some kind of mmo wasn't it?[/QUOTE] Something like that.
From what I can see from the gameplay videos they got most of the core-game mechanics in box, they just need to fine tune some stuff, and get new animations and sounds. I hope those they showed were placeholders, but looking away from those, it looks good.
hurr bad crawling animation 0/10 would not play
[QUOTE=Sam xD;37689188]hurr bad crawling animation 0/10 would not play[/QUOTE] yes because it wasn't the horrible animations, the terrible sounds, the lack of zombies, the awful zombie dying animation, the crysis attachment copy, or anything else that people didn't like
i don't mind the crysis attachement i mind the fuckawful sounds, animations, weapon feeling
[QUOTE=JerryK;37689229]yes because it wasn't the horrible animations, the terrible sounds, the lack of zombies, the awful zombie dying animation, the crysis attachment copy, or anything else that people didn't like[/QUOTE] I'm fine with the crysis attachment thing, if it isn't broken don't fix it, but there should be like a timer where it plays an animation of the character equipping said attachment otherwise you can just change attachments whenever you feel like and do some crazy combos. But yeah, the animations are the biggest issue I have right now but nothing that a bunch of animators with a few days on their hands can't fix, I just wanna see a shit ton of zombies right now.
Dare I say it? Back to Day Z (standalone) thread? :downs:
I was surprised ANY of you guys got your hopes up, considering these are still the same developers who made WarInc. It's like you thought they were all of the sudden gonna become better game developers. And the fact that they've said they're gonna release the game by the end of 2012, that means they have a measly 3.5 months to fix everything. I mean, seriously, they haven't added an actual switching weapons animation to War Inc since its release, what made you think they're gonna add one to WarZ?
I have no particularly strong feelings about the videos. Yeah it looks flawed, but who knows it might still be a fun game, shit if it's going for only about £20 here in the UK and if it's at least better optimised than DayZ then I'll probably have a crack at it.
I never thought they'd make a good game. They won't. Not in this time frame for sure. And even longer, after trying War Inc and seeing how crappy it is, I'd have my doubts.
soo... i was out for 2 days what did i miss?
[QUOTE=werewolf0020;37690326]soo... i was out for 2 days what did i miss?[/QUOTE] The skeptical zeldar of the past was somewhat correct about the game's quality. They have 3.5 months so who knows if they'll make any significant improvements in that time frame.
[QUOTE=zeldar;37690369]The skeptical zeldar of the past was somewhat correct about the game's quality.

I will give you about a 10% correct rating though. Fuck me, pageking....
Hopefully Arma 3 will have an insane zombie gamemode, I'd probably rather play that.
The thing which DayZ has, which this doesn't even have a shred of, is atmosphere.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;37690645]still looks better than dayz lol[/QUOTE] DayZ is mod made by 1 guy for free in the space of a month. WarZ is a commercial game designed by the guy that made Big Rigs.

i dont get it was that meant to be a good excuse
[QUOTE=zeldar;37690980]Sergey has spoken. [t]http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/3904/oursavior.png[/t][/QUOTE] uh oh
Ok I'm looking at the first gameplay videos released and the latest ones and I'm still trying to understand the reasons behind this sudden negative reaction, since the first scripted demonstration clearly showed off the game's lackluster quality. The only thing seriously different is the lack of ambiance noise, which wasn't immediately noticeable due to that corny conversation between the two players. Other than that I'm still looking forward to this game even though it looks to be a very arcadey experience.
I think the problem is everyone wants the 100% PERFECT zombie survival simulator ever.. Basically real life with a zombie plague. And im sorry to say but a game like that is never gonna happen. [I] I guess we just gotta wait for the [B]real[/B] apocalypse.[/I]

[QUOTE=Adarrek;37692335]Borderlands 2 is out in 2 days?![/QUOTE] I thought it was released on the 24th
[QUOTE=Dame Flawless;37692381]I thought it was released on the 24th[/QUOTE] Today's the 17th
[QUOTE=JerryK;37689229]yes because it wasn't the horrible animations, the terrible sounds, the lack of zombies, the awful zombie dying animation, the crysis attachment copy, or anything else that people didn't like[/QUOTE] But that isn't the finished product they are showing.
[QUOTE=simkas;37692584]Today's the 17th[/QUOTE] I was questioning the 19th as the release date, I know what the date is.
[QUOTE=Deac;37692855]But that isn't the finished product they are showing.[/QUOTE] yes, we acknowledged that the problem is that i really doubt it's going to receive even near the amount of polish that i would hope to see by release not saying it's impossible, but just very unlikely if it turns out to be an amazing game then by all means i'll hop right back onto the hype train, but holy shit those videos made it look terrible and honestly it seems to me that they should have waited to show gameplay unless of course they never planned on reaching a better looking stage anytime soon
