It is a well made game so far, and will be good. Its just not ready for the early majority.

Originally posted by coxyroxy this is not the point really. certain features were promised, in writing, to purchasers of the game. now, not only did the game not come with these features, but the developer is currently trying cover up his miscreant behavior by blaming the customers stating that they misread the information. funny how all those people misread the exact same things.

I'm happy to see that Valve did the right thing here.
Consume. Be silent. Die. |

Originally posted by lizardbones That was my thought as well. There are some indie games coming out now that don't look very professional at all and the dev team doesn't present themselves very professionally either. War Z isn't the only one. It's one reason I tend to treat indie mmos with a healthy dose of "watch and wait". |

I just have to say that I never ever bought into WarZ because I knew that it was a scam. I mean it came right after the hugely popular mod called "DayZ" and they decide to call their game "WarZ?" That instantly grabbed my attention and I sort of knew.
I'm not really surprised with how much lying this company seems to be comfortable with doing, but I was a little shocked when they said that the playerbase "misread" what they wrote. I mean really? Blaming the entire population for misreading such blatant lies? They really screwed up on that one and I can't see this game being a success after such a failure to even do something as simple as make an honest apology.
I'll be waiting for the DayZ MMO. Smile |

Same here. If they were serious about WarZ, and making it a great game that could stand on its own, they'd have named it something else. The name alone was a massive red flag for me. I still might have given it chance, if it somehow proved itself, but instead, it just appears to be proving our skepticism well placed.
When I want a single-player story, I'll play a single-player game. When I play an MMO, I want a massively multiplayer world. |

Wouldn't touch this game with a 10 foot pole myself. It's too bad anyone at all is tossing money to this company. I would prefer the next headline for War Z includes something about bankruptcy so there's a clear message that scamming gamers isn't ok.

From Forbes article: Many people are criticizing Valve for what is obviously an unfinished product showing up in their store. The problem appears to be a simple one. Because the game’s publisher had a game on Steam previously, their new titles can skip the review process, giving The War Z a free pass through the back door.

A survival game where if you have an active credit and money to burn, you can buy most things needed to survive in the cash shop, which in my eyes defeats the purpose of survival. It's sort of like going on a survival camping trek into the wilderness and bringing a Winnebago with all the trimmings and parking it 10mins away from a grocery store.

Well what do you know.. guess i have to eat my words.
Good thing for all the people who got the game of steam and was not happy about it.
But i guess Valve also "misread" the material =P This have been a good conversation |

Well the only people i feel sorry for now are the ones who got the game from the company direct, they seem to be unable to get a refund.
Not every day you find something that make DF look like a solid deal. This have been a good conversation |

I read on PCgamer that they were banning accounts for no reason to make people buy it again. Nice way to gain customer support there...wow. DayZ is probably loving all this, it's going to make that game all the better :)
