7 Days to Die - DayZ meets Minecraft?

Easy Rhino · Aug 15, 2013

how does kickstarter even work? do we get our money back if they don't make the game?

Guitar · Aug 15, 2013

No.

Kickstarter is an investment. You are making an investment to hopefully get what is promised at the end. If the company goes down/out, you lose the investment like any other investment. If they don't give what you were promised, you're pretty much SOL as far as Kickstarter themselves is concerned.

Mussels · Aug 15, 2013

490k with ~80 minutes. i'd say we got it.

Guitar · Aug 15, 2013

And there we have it. 500k. People didn't think (including myself) this would get funded at 150k. And now we've hit every stretch goal.

newtekie1 · Aug 15, 2013

I definitely didn't think we would get to 500k, but it is awesome that they did.

Guitar · Aug 15, 2013

13,872
Backers
$507,502
pledged of $200,000 goal

See you guys in game tomorrow!

Mussels · Aug 15, 2013

i'll let you guys know my thoughts after i get access

different timezone to you guys, so MP might prove difficult

I had my eye on this, but was trying to get a friend of mine to buy in too. Decided today that I would get it anyways and it turns out I missed it by 47 minutes.

This news made my day. Zombie gore on the front bumper for the win!

Yeah, but what's the crafting pattern for a car going to be?

Guitar · Aug 15, 2013

I doubt it will be crafted, but maybe. I would think you'd need parts to fix it, like DayZ, and go from there.

I'm hoping that they offer the option to buy the game and get the alpha/beta access to their own site now that the kickstarter is over, though it might not be as cheap(though it should be, IMO).

Should be back soon, but they've been offering it on their site since before Kickstarter.

FordGT90Concept · Aug 15, 2013

http://7daystodie.com/thank-you-so-much-and-next-steps/

And for those of you who have asked our PayPal Buy page will be back up soon and stay up after Alpha release for everyone to still buy the pledges they want including Alpha.

xvi · Aug 16, 2013

Yeah, wasn't quite interested in the game unless they hit $500,000. Go figure they would.

Thanks for digging that up, Ford and tekie.

Mussels · Aug 16, 2013

i'm excited and want my alpha key :/ work in 2 hours

FordGT90Concept · Aug 16, 2013

~~If they are on time (not saying they are), you should get an email with the keys/links in the next 30 minutes.~~

Check for an email from Kickstarter, subject: Response Needed! -- Get your reward for backing 7 Days to Die - Zombie Survival Game by The Fun Pimps Entertainment LLC.

~~Double~~ Triple check your info after you click the link in that email. It has to be right because that's who they're sending the shit to.

Mussels · Aug 16, 2013

yeah i replied to that, now its just the waiting

Nordic · Aug 16, 2013

In the kick starter information request page it asks you what "Pledge Package you Purchased" and I wonder what would happen if I put a higher pledge package than I got...

Be kinda crazy you got banned before you actually got to play it maybe a record HAHAHA!.. Al though it would find it totally funny if some one did try that and got charged again LOL....

The exact same thought crossed my mind too. I saw my package listed on the right so I just copy-pasta'd "THE WARRIOR" over. Trolling would take too much effort. Still, I think it is very silly they asked. You'd think Kickstarter would provide them a CSV with the email address, shipping address, and amount paid for each.

Oh, maybe they asked for those that bought the 2xalpha or 4xalpha package? The Kickstarter system doesn't exactly translate $120 into 4xalpha when the user may have wanted whatever else is available at $120. I bet that's it. They probably don't even look at that field unless the amount is $60 or higher.

Mussels · Aug 16, 2013

fuck it. called into work even tho i've called in sick, they better not release alpha while im away.

rampage · Aug 16, 2013

and why did you call in sick ? i wonder why

(big brother)

Mussels · Aug 16, 2013

well im back from a short shift at work i shouldnt have had to go to, and its not out yet.

sad.

Guitar · Aug 16, 2013

I'm sure it's gonna take them a bit...there were 35k people that pledged, I think they mentioned over 25k got Alpha, so I imagine it'll take a bit. I'll just download it if it is available at work and start playing there.
