The WarZ

[WarhammerTX]

[brandonwh64]

Takes another turn, Steam has talks of removing the game. Lots of people outraged

Just watched TB play it for 45 mins. This game is trash and poorly made, and should be free, like it's highly acclaimed counterpart.

- 30% of our players played DayZ
- 70% of our players never played Dayz
- 5% of our players never heard about DayZ before they started looking into The War Z

This means that most of our players are new to the "genre" of zombie survival game. They either like zombie games, or they like MMO's or they like survival games. They do not play The War Z because they've been fans of Dayz or even played it."

He even explains the hate we are getting in this thread lol.

"1) Extreme DayZ fanboys. I really envy to Dayz creators for having such loyal players, yet I don't think we can do anything - yes we've announced game right before DayZ mod reached it's prime and it started losing popularity after that. And yes - The War Z and DayZ themes are similar. Heck - both projects are using same reference to other products in their titles )). So - if I'll be a Dayz fanboy - I'll be royally pissed off at The War Z. Especially since they won't be able to do anything about it, all they can do is to spread lies and false information about game. They just love to omit obvious facts and bend words."

The DayZ standalone is going to come along and absolutely destroy WarZ. WarZ developers should get ready to be unemployed, rightfully so when they act like a facebook developer.

I am fairly certain that they interpreted those statistics backwards.

Whitenoise do you have a clan to play in? I mostly play at around 5 am +, Kurgan and Ufgy play in the afternoon if your looking for others to play with. Its such a blast to play with others and very heartpounding to play solo lol. Though i think if you die on hardcore you have to delete your char and get re invited again so i don't think ill play hardcore till they make it easier to invite people to the clan. For all those who hate the game why do you have to post it and troll even more? We get it, you don't like it, but you can be more mature about it.

Supposedly they are trying to save people from a terrible game. Which I don't understand how when the people they are preaching too actually enjoy the game .

Perhaps they should start a Warz hate thread and hope they will get enough people to hate the game to meet their agenda, whatever that is.

Man don't listen to them. They wouldn't know a great game if it installed a virus on their computer.

There is nothing to listen to and I don't just mean that because its all text.

[WhiteNoise]

I'm not in a clan. I've been playing solo on 'normal' servers. I can't play 'hardcore' because the only thing that makes a server 'hardcore' is the fact that when you die you die for good and I don't feel like making characters over and over. Considering I lose everything when I die I don't care anyway.

I play in the evenings PST and mornings on the weekends. I have around 4 characters their names as follows:

Amish Marauder
Amish123
Amish456
Amish789


I play on both US and Euro servers.




Last night was the first time I ran into another player that didn't try to kill me. We just stopped and he exclaimed 'friendly!' and I said "me too!" so we ended up clearing out clearview together and it was fun working with another player but then another guy came around the corner...I had my shotgun sights on him but I hesitated for a second and he didn't. My new friend ran for the hills lol.


Then I got killed immediately after by another hacker. I was scoping out same town from the outskirts because I heard multiple gunfire. I then see this dude running through town with a butt load of zeds chasing him. Somehow he loses them and I watch him run behind a fence where I can't see him. (Mind you I'm in the outskirts with a 9mm pistol and around 100 yards from this guy and I'm laying in a bush slightly behind a tree.

I can see both ends of the fence and he doesn't move past either end. TBH I don't want anything to do with him but I do want to enter that town's PD and see if I can find some ammo and maybe a gun.

So I wait....and wait....and wait...

And then BAM! he shoots and kills me. He just peeked around the end of the fence. How in the hell did he know I was there?

Ah well....this was one of my scouts and didn't have anything on him except a medium pack, and one pistol w/10 rounds.


Later that night I watched two guys get into a sniper position at the same town on the hill that over looks the christmas tree. I figure they were camping for all the players looking to get the free gifts. They eventually got bored and moved off and I proceeded to empty the town out.



On another note I really don't care if these guys want to bitch about the game but TBH they aren't adding anything to the thread; more or less just trolling.

I'm going to keep playing the game so their words make no real difference to me.

Sure you can, www.thewarz.com. Like said, we got the point, it's been made clear some here don't like it, think it's safe to say anyone who visits the thread that hasn't bought it will see they should question it (people should question anything they purchase, don't just throw money around). It would be nice to have a thread to discuss the game with others that are actually playing an enjoying it now though.

I could invite everyone except Amish Marauder. Just click on each character then click on community, you will have a popup for a clan invite, just hit accept. Add me on steam, Jarvis5000 or Jarvis85, cant remember which one it is.

Holy cow the petition to remove it from steam is at 842. It was in the 100s earlier today.. Must be real bad. The only other game I've ever seen removed was Legends of Pegasus, and that company is now bankrupt. Hmm!

We are almost there.

absolutely true.

A neat article for those who want to know more about why it was pulled:
http://uk.pc.gamespy.com/pc/the-war-z/1226980p1.html

None of it seems to be as bad as people make it out to be. But there is still a certain level of expectations that go along with a Steam release. Another game that released an Alpha to steam is Towns. But I guess its market is so small people didn't really care for refunds much.

GameSpy: Steam still says -- I'm looking at it right now -- "Up to 100 players per game server." That is a false claim.

Sergey Titov: Let me ask you -- what YOU think we should put there, since we do not know what number of slots will be on official servers tomorrow -- 20,30, 50, 70 or 100?

GameSpy: I think you should put the minimum you can deliver. If you deliver more, that's a bonus that no one can claim they were misled about. If you deliver less, you have failed to deliver on a promise.

Sergey Titov: Okay good point -- so you think that if we'll have server with 100 players up and running it means we've delivered even if everybody will hate it ?

GameSpy: Mostly corrected. Again, the Steam page still makes no mention of the fact that this is a "Foundation release." It is simply labeled as "The War Z."

Sergey Titov: What's difference ? I mean -- I'd love to adjust that BTW -- I just personally don't see what difference does it make? Ie -- THIS IS "THE WAR Z" game. It's not like there'll be "final release" or anything like this.

GameSpy: So as far as you're concerned, The War Z is officially out of beta and fully released, correct?

Sergey Titov: Nope - there's no such thing as "fully released" for online game. As far as I'm concerned The War Z is in stage when we're ready to stop call it Beta. This is basic version - bones that we're going to add more and more "meat" - features and content in a coming months and hopefully years.

wait...they do have 100 man servers up. What am i missing? I was playing one one yesterday with 97 other players.

Also for all the haters out there there are thousands of people playing at any given time. They can't all hate the game....

They don't, it's mostly people who don't play the game, thats why I just take it with a grain of salt. If the game was that bad, and that hated by it's players, the servers wouldn't be as active as they are. I post videos up of it pretty often and I been getting subs to my channel off those videos like crazy, and people keep asking for more. So theres a good amount of people out there who like it.

And COD series games usually come in around 3, yet look at their sales. you don't need to buy the game to be a reviewer there, going to be a ton of people reviewing that have never even played. I remember reviewing a COD game like that for shits and giggles once.
