He has nothing to do with The War Z, aside being ripped off by them. |

I was fortunate I guess. I never had any problems on the forums or with support. I quit playing because... A. War Z isn't really an MMO, it's a FPS. It has almost no MMO features. Don't get me wrong I like FPS's, but I was looking for a MMO. B. It's not a "Zombie survival game" it's a PvP game. The zombies are a minor nuisance at best. After the first 2 days of playing I was NEVER killed by zombie's. I died at least once a day, sometimes 2 or 3 times, at the hands of other players. C. Hacker city. WOW nothing sucks more than shooting someone in the head at point blank range with a M4 to NO effect. Except perhaps getting killed by an invisible player. It's one thing to get beat by someone who out fights you, but the cheats were too much. Maybe some day War Z will be a good MMOFPS, but not yet. And the way they are going it's not going to be around long enough for that to happen. |

Originally posted by GrimFaust I claim to know nothing for certain regarding it, but regardless of what his name is or his wiki page, I do know there were articles claiming that the dev for the DayZ mod was being hired by the Arma company to create a stand alone version of the mod and was given a full dev team. If that changed and they ripped him off then mayhaps someone should have said something.
But as far as I can tell from what I have come across, the guy that made the DayZ mod is the guy running things for the WarZ team.

Originally posted by Quicksand Eh? As far as I know, the standalone Dayz is a different developer than Warz so where do you get this information?

Dean Hall has nothing to do with The War Z and never has. That wouldn't even make sense. He just got a promo to make his game a reality through Bohemia. Why would he turn around and lead The War Z? He would be fired by Bohemia for a conflict of interest. Not only that, but Sergey Titov (Sp?) is the the head of Hammerpoint/WarZ.

they're a bunch of shoddy crooks 1 they name it war Z to cash in on the success of Day Z hoping to con people into buying it thinking its the DayZ mmo (it isnt) 2 its a quick hack job on another rubbish fps they own called war inc 3 they stole the TOS contract word for word from Leauge of Ledgends 4 they produced fake screen shots for it that arent in game 5 it has the most ridiculous cash shop / player cash grab system ive ever heard of 6 there are rumours they manipulated steam to get it to the top of the charts and generate more sales 7 they are using obvious forum promoters for the game - on this forum and many others 8 there are rumours many of the games graphical assets are "borrowed" from other games 9 they LIE like hell on their steam page about what features the game has like - private servers, the number of players it supports, the size of the maps 10 they then put out the most spurious of denials about lieing and misleading customers saying customers "misread" it. 11 the name is also similar to the popular book and upcoming file "world War Z", again hoping to cash in on others talent.

Originally posted by lizardbones The problem is by going to Steam War Z placed all itself into the spotlight. It became an instant hit then an instant failure all in about a day lol. It was removed from steam, people are demanding refunds, the storm is just beginning because complaints about false advertising and such are being filed all over the place.
The worste thing War Z could have done was go to project greenlight and pull the kind of crap they did. The whole copyright infringement thing is a whole different crap storm that got opened up thanks to all of this lol...
War Z doesn't look like it has a very bright future at the moment, thats assuming it has one at all.
Mortal Online is actually making the same mistake. They are about to put themselves in the spotlight. They were fine when they were just a bad little indie game that most haven't heard of, wait until a wider audience gets a hold of MO and has to deal with SV.
I feel bad for Steam, War Z and MO are going to cast such a negative light on project greenlight. |

Originally posted by GrimFaust Thats what I was talking about, the Bohemia job he was offered. I was thinking that WarZ was that project. I take it after all the replies that WarZ is from a different company.
Thats why I said I knew nothing for certain, only that I read he was offered a job to make a stand alone version of his DayZ mod. Being named WarZ and being the same thing for the most part (based on screen shots, haven't played it) I thought WarZ was that standalone.
