Re: War Z

I would stay away from this guys. It appears to be a moneygrab.

The pay lots of money to test their game

Re: War Z

It's a money grab because they're trying a different business model and (clearly) don't have the best legal team?

Give 'em a break, they're trying to fund the development of the game.

Re: War Z

Quite a few games are releasing beta and alpha keys with pre-orders. MechWarrior Online and Planetside 2 are the major ones that spring to mind, so It's really not an uncommon business model anymore.

Re: War Z

Beta's are less to do with testing server loads etc and more to do with giving players an indication as to whether or not to buy the game.
I can't blame players thinking that way.
If the beta suck it's a good change the full release will too. So Dev's work around this and build the beta into the main release, kinda smart.

Re: War Z

It's a straight copy and paste from War inc.

When you die you have to either pay to get revived or wait 24 hours.

It's clunky and horribly optimised, Plus now has pay to win.

2012 the year of let downs.

Re: War Z

I find it hilarious that they are going from a Alpha release (which is currently unplayable) to a Beta release in just two weeks... Happy to be proven wrong, but as it stands right now, this game is a joke.

Also they said this game has been in development for 2 years (which i call bs to but i wont go into that), find it funny that it takes them 2 years to get to a unplayable Alpha then expect to get to Beta in just 2 weeks... From where im sitting it seems like a very rushed attempt at cashing in on Dayz's success..

Re: War Z

The company was created in July 2012. So yeah I kinda call bullcrap on them working on this for two years.

Re: War Z

I'm actually playing it now its not bad for and alpha.

Its not a money grab kuchluk, many game actually most games would copy and post there copyright info from other games at least War Z dev team had the balls to actually state were they got it from. About the prices , I personally see it more as a Minecraft beta buy in and theres nothing wrong with it , minecraft had bugs but they were ironed out eventually same will happen with War Z.

Cash Cow i %100 believe what you are saying if it has been two years and all they can show is a crappy alpha something seems a bit fishy there And thats why moons comment is correct , atm they only care about their network code which so far is impressive everything else needs help.

Re: War Z

They did copy and paste, The player models, The terrain, The weapon animations.

The company that "Tovic" claims to have created for it 2 years ago was only created in July.

It's 100% a money grab.

Network code? it's a copy paste job from War inc.

Re: War Z

What my sentence meant that the only thing they have worked on and changed is the network code i know the rest is from War Inc.

Believe it or not Minecraft seemed to be a money grab too, as it copied apparently some other block type game.

In the end who really cares.

oh and are you going to the meet up in brissy?

Re: War Z

FYI Minecraft was a success, nothing about it was rushed to cash in on other previous block style games.
