[QUOTE=simkas;38030639]This is their second game.[/QUOTE] War Inc's gunplay wasn't THAT terrible. the worst part about it i've seen is mainly their animations, which sergey has said are going to be remade. [editline]14th October 2012[/editline] so wait is this getting released in russian time or something, or is it being release at 12:00 EST/CST/PST?

[QUOTE=sergeytitov]It's sunny day here in Los Angeles, but we're still in the office crunching to get game out by tomorrow. Today we're setting up serviers, uploading game files to CDN and prepping us and our pet zombies for Survivors invasion that will happen on October 15th afternoon Pacific standard time here in United States. For our overseas players - PST time zone is -8 hours to GMT. Do we expect bugs - YES we do. We're like 99% sure that game will be broken by our players on day one :), and we're like 60% sure that we'll have some server issues :) For that I personally appologies to you, if your first day experience will be lets say not as fun as you've expected. Lets assure we'll be there to fix it ASAP. I'll keep you updated on status of game deployment thought today and tomorrow. Here's our Alpha roadmap : - Map -we're starting with around 30% of the map available on October 15th, and will unlock more areas up to full map unlocked few days before October 31st. - We'll start with 30 players per map and will be gradually increase number of slots on daily basis ( as we unlock more space on map ) up to 70-100 per server. - Marketplace will be almost useless at this stage. We'll have very few GC items, most items will be priced in "Dollars" - and only way right now to obrtain dolalrs is to hunt zombies in large cities - ie - super rare. - Missions won't be available until we'll know what servers dynamics are, so hopefully around Octgober 25th. - We've UNLOCKED safe settlements, removed any protection, as well as NPC services. So for first two weeks they're YOURS to conquer, build your own barricades and beses. Enjoy ! - Notes, barricades, building blocks are all in, they're extremely rare - Weapons are rare, ammo is super rare - so expect more use melle weapons - Weapons attachments are EPIC and rare - so if you'll find one - HOLD ON to it. Things that WON'T be available till very end of Alpha or past October 31st beta release : - Freiends and Clans - Leaderboards - Renting servers - Stronghold servers Basically we really want to make sure that by November you all will have same footing in a game, and also we'll fix all bugs that can hinder premium services like renting servers and strongholds stability. We don't want you to waste money, but more importantly we don't want you to have subpar experience for the paying services in a game. So - sometimes tomorrow ( mean USA monday, not EU one :) ) we'll post client to [url]http://www.thewarz.com/download[/url] Feel free to spread it as wide as possible - upload to sites, torrents, etc. To play game you'll need to have valid serial key, so we're okay with free distribution of the game client. to be continued ![/QUOTE] Bit of info for tomorrow.

Going to be interesting to see what players do with the settlements, will they just be come city's like Cherno or will places actually take them over using team work and create they're own little settlements?

So how will we meet up with friends in this game?

[QUOTE=Cairn Trenor;38037687]So how will we meet up with friends in this game?[/QUOTE] Tell your friends "let's meet up in *insert town/settlement/landmark*" and them meet up there.

[QUOTE=simkas;38037728]Tell your friends "let's meet up in *insert town/settlement/landmark*" and them meet up there.[/QUOTE] So everytime we die, we have to meet up again?

[QUOTE=Cairn Trenor;38037775]So everytime we die, we have to meet up again?[/QUOTE] I would assume so, how else would it be?

Would like to test this out too, been playing dayz since 800 unique players sometimes even with rocket. I really wanna feel what this alpha will give, surely buying war z and day z.

[QUOTE=simkas;38037784]I would assume so, how else would it be?[/QUOTE] I suppose teleporting next to your friend would be used as cheating etc.

Just bought Pioneer. Woo! So tomorrow I'll watch TWD while installing the game. :v:

[QUOTE=Zovox;38037825]Just bought Pioneer. Woo! So tomorrow I'll watch TWD while installing the game. :v:[/QUOTE] Thats exactly what i plan to except my internet is so fast now it will literally take no more than 10 minutes to download

I got the same problem. I got about 50 mb/s, paying for 100 though, but my router can't handle more than 50. :v:

I would kill for this game, I have no money, and the only way I would be able to repay someone is if I payed them in steam games :suicide:

Hopefully going to buy it tomorrow, some of us should get together if it doesn't break day 1(allday) and possibly look around and look for some nice places for bases. I know that not every facepuncher will want to be friendly with each other.

So if i understand what the devs said, the downloads are expected to start at around noon pacific time?

I would've liked an exact time of release, not just Monday Afternoon... [editline]Edit:[/editline] And yeah, that NDA thing sucks but I understand it.

so does that mean we aren't allowed to make gameplay videos as-well?

[QUOTE=The-Spy;38038849]so does that mean we aren't allowed to make gameplay videos as-well?[/QUOTE] Thats what the NDA says, so yeah.

Could someone who has the game tomorrow post their thoughts (If allowed), I'm still a bit on the fence about this... But hopefully the developers will realize that they have something good and should make the most of it ,and not do a half arsed job.

Have to wait until tomrow night to be able to play. I was hoping to get home tonight and play this until ~10, but its going to be 4am when it comes out here, and i need all the sleep i can get. At least i can stay up late tomorrow night and play it.

Just to confirm this, do you pay tax for the game via PayPal or CC in other countries? I had to pay tax on a few other preorders. If it were to it would show it in the item total on PayPal right?

Man, I wish they released the alpha for the pioneer people in two hours. I'm on the east coast :v:

[url]http://www.thewarz.com/download[/url] Open up your pages in preparation for tomorrow :v: in another 14~ hours or so the game client should be up and available (or so I think)

I'm wholly expecting that page to crash very quickly.

Hopefully they have a ton of mirrors for us! If they do, it might be a good idea for someone here to get the links for them so that if it does crash we can have an easy way to know where to get them.

Uh - I'll give someone DOTA2 for a beta key? :v: But in all seriousness, have they specified what they beta will be focusing on (i.e. combat, the map, etc.)?
