regardless of all of this, the game that they are charging people money for, flat out sucks.
-"Combat" system is laughable -Cannot swim!!!??? MMO's arnt supposed to be linear with no choice but to try and walk down the freeway if there is water anywhere. -Small hills can kill you. -Stamina runs out too quickly, most of my time was spent walking slower than a zombie to some place marked on my map. There is nothing to explore, seems anything worth going to is labeled on the map. -Sneaking is pointless, sense bars just move randomly -Horribly rendered graphics and animations -Microtransanctions in an Alpha that go away if you die! hah Stay away from this piece of shit. Playing : GW2 Played : EVE, GW, SB, DF, AoC, WoW, WaR, L1, L2, Rift Loved: DAoC, EVE, SB, old WoW, L2 |

Most of my experience with playing the game in beta happened while my character was dead. I didn't know my character had died within seconds of me logging it though, as a glitch let me continue to play as normal. I was able to walk around, pick up objects in the world including looting players, consume items, shoot weapons, cause a massive amount of bleeding on this one other player. Eventually I got bored and it was only when I was logged out back at character select that I realized my character had been dead nearly that entire time. |

I dont get why people do not report this company and others to the FTC and let them open an investigation of the company. People do it all the time on plenty of companies and shady companies get shut down and fined for tons of money all the time for taking shortcuts and breaking the rules. If shady steam is shutting them down from their site , i think honestly this studio could easily be shut down at least here in the US for sales.

i actually laugh when i see the zombies attack people. they dont swarm like zombies should (day of the dead ect) instead they wobble and saunter after them groaning then get within 5 feet and swing their arms like a 1month old sucking on the leg of a teddy. totally not how a zombie should really be if you want it to be believable and immersive. the game eng shows its weaknesses in almost every video i see of it. i know warinc was pretty bad but warz takes it to another level by the animations alone.. the fact they are charing so much for it both before and even now.. is rather scary. i mean MO charged for its access but atleast the animations i have seen from MO look ok. warz they look horrid :/ (reminds me of the free mod, "No more room in hell" with the bad zombie animations. but then thats a free source mod so its forgivable)
i also noticed the steam page has changed to say servers hold 40-100 players now instead of how they had it before, so i guess they are learning. they tweeked it to not be a total out right BS page now... still over charging for a 1.0 build :/ but owell |

Sounds like The War Z devs noticed that AAA developers were releasing garbage so they wanted to jump on the train... Unfortunately you need a lot of money to release garbage these days. Have to set yourself up to steal peoples money and keep it legal! |

From this debacle all the way back to their lead developer creating an open letter to the community calling parts of his fan base a bunch of British Cigarrettes ( I can't say the word here, it's not a good one), it's not looking too good for these guys. Even though the developer offered a loose apology, he still hasn't taken responsibility for his actions in that situation or this one. Simply put, they do not understand how this business works and it will bury them.

Phew...im GLAD i didnt pay for this SHIT ASS GAME. I dont have to ask for a refund and non of that shit..and my money well kept to spend on for christmas gifts instead. People are so ignorant and stupid....that they dont even realize whats going on around them. These developers are only IN IT for your MONEY...MONEY...and yes...MONEY!!!!!!!!!! A true developer that CARED about his/her game...would RESPECT its gaming COMMUNITY...and not take a SHIT on THEM. yes...a true developer and its gaming staff...would be friendly all the time...and lets not forget..."Customer is always right"..who is the customer?...us...thats right...we are the fucking customers. You think "ONE" customer doesnt make a difference? Well you are a fucking joke my friend. Games...stores...malls....etc all start with that "ONE" customer...so dont go fucking being a fan boy shit and backing up these guys. Cant even get a refund for a game that is in BETA? Threats...? Bans...? Whoever, payed for this piece of garbage of milking money game...if you love it...good for you. For the rest of mankind...please..be smart and think "THREE" times before you buy crap games like this in the future.

Hey folks, Interesting comments you have here! Most of the actual information was in the posts on Game By Night and Kotaku, but I think a lot of you know most of the issues presented. For those of you who mentioned that the servers can hold 100 people now, can you send me a message with a link to updated information. Based on the info I had at the time (Game by Night's post has the info), there was a quote saying, "I don’t see ‘LIE’ in saying ‘up to 100 players per sever’ and having the current limit at 50 players.We’ve just lowered the number of players per map down from 70 based on requests and votes from our players."
The wording points to there never being a 100-man possible server to begin with, which seems odd.

Pay to remove spawn timers and max 50 players is false, but the parts of the fraud that actually matter? Yeah those still stand.
So because those two things are wrong you ignore the rest of the article? It's funny that people call out two minuscule things, but don't comment on them stealing art or any of the other "correct" claims. Remember all that crap Gene Simmons' kid got into because he traced Bleach art in his graphic novel? This company was even to lazy to trace, or even try to make it different in anyway, looks like a copy paste with a few touch ups in Photoshop to make it look illustrated. The article also talks about how crappy the devs are to their customers. Two things that kind of matter more than the two things the dev changed after the article was written. |

All I know is that I have had first-hand knowledge of having to deal with HI's terrible CSRs, immature forum mods, and brain-dead Devs in trying to solve a simple issue I was having with the client long before this steam fiasco. The issue got dragged out for weeks and none of their staff was being cooperative, especially when they started trying to talk down to me, and contradicting their own policies throughout the process. So after finally getting tired of HI's incompetence, I ended up communicating directly to their parent company handling refunds and got my money back. I had high hopes for the concept of the game, but at this point with the idiocy running HI currently, I don't see it becoming a reality. |

First off, I'm also a graphic artist. Taking a photo, altering the colors and overpainting some hair is copywrte infringment. There are no two ways around it. I wouldn't even do that for a non-comercial gallery image much less a banner ad for a product. Add to that the whole IP was stolen in the first place, but that's harder to claim in a court. The stolen graphics could very easily get them nailed to the wall, and I hope it does. Overall they deserve every bit of negative press they are getting plus some. I really hope people see all this and learn not to waste their money. I did not buy WarZ, I read the info before it was released and steared clear. I bought Arma 2, a good game in its own right, and play DayZ, a free mod without a cash shop. It's not without its bugs but it's a free mod, and it's still way better than WarZ could ever hope to be. I am very much looking forward to the official DayZ game being worked on by the Arma 2 and DayZ developers and I will happily give them my money when it is released. |
