It's even more funny when he gets killed and starts whinning about stream snipers. I don't get why that guy is so popular really

Care to explain how is this statement relevant?

Just send this thread to the graveshard. It has no point already and nothing good can come from it we have enough "fanboys vs haters" threads already.

This is BI's standard procedure for community managment. They relly on their biased apologiser fanboys who will defend the game at any cost and never show any form of criticism. These are the same that shout "ALPHERRR" at any "cod whinny entitled kid" that dares to share his thoughts on the negative aspects of the game or lack of solid progress. It's a shame but its how it is

I agree with you, but would also like to make a correction, Early access alpha is a bad thing (for us players) when highly expected (aka hyped) games follow that model and Dayz is the perfect example. They practically made all the profit during the past months and anyone believing that "even more people will buy this when its done" are being delusional. I fully support indie devs and I understand why they need to make profit on the go to keep developing but thats not the case. Dayz is not project zomboid, and most people understand this thats why there is an atmosphere of dissappointment around this game and its current development state

Specially when that game was hyped for two years and released right before christmas... "but hell, are you dissappointed? Wellm sorry bud, we warned you"

I have mixed emotions. On one side, I can't find in SA what made the mod the best MP experience I ever had. It might be that the map is pretty much the same, or the lack of endgame content like vehicles and tents, or the broken zombie AI. I dunno, but I can't feel it, and right now I feel like it will never reach to that point, at the rate we are getting updates. Something about the playerbase bothers me too, but it might be because of the current state of the game and might improve with time. On the other side, I like how the survival aspect has been expanded. But since release it hasn't been improved too much. So its all just a mather of waiting and see how it goes

You are assuming that every "server hopper" has intentions of ghosting, not allways the case. People has connection issues. People plays with friends in same servers and will hop to get together, People offen get kicked by badmins and are forced to reconnect to a different server, People lives in different countries that have not many servers and even are forced to play in only one (south america or singapore are good examples).. Of course ghosting is an issue but its not only that, things are more complex

This. There are problems that are far beyond any perfect solution so, you just have to deal with it. Remember that its just a game and do your best to enjoy it, besides, its alpha, so something might be done about this in a while, who knows?

No vehicles please, I feel these would bring even more problems to the game and break the balance. Just think about the scumbag gang patroling the coast and kosing freshies for the lulz. Maybe the occasional bike, but these should be really hard to repair

We are not testers, the devs have their own testers working for them and getting paid. We are just costumers who preordered a game and have the right to play it as it gets updated while giving feeback, not more than that. Its different.

They have to make money somehow

Anyone misses the zombies from the mod? I think they were great, you could sneak around them (they don't have good sight so as long as you are prone you are good) but if you make nosie like firing a gun or running over a solid surface they would aggro instantly. Of course with the amount of guns and ammo in the mod and the OP hatchet they never are a threat but if they were somehow buffed they could be interesting in SA.

Pretty sure its just a scam to grab money. There are many servers doing that shit and they never seem to be shuted down. Private hives are the solution.

Just go take a shower or something dude.. It will be downloaded eventually

I am talking about the fact that releasing a hyped game as alpha, a highly expected game that everybody talked about, and expect people to read a warning and say "Its okey, I understand" its pretty naive or malicious. EA is a good concept for indie devs that have no support from companies and are not know in the mainstream, Project zomboid for example. But releasing a hyped game as EA is a bad move, and all the rant you see doesn't come from idiotic people "that can't read" as many of you fanboys think. Anyway back to the point, we have what we have and we can only wait and hope for the best. Thats it.

The fact that they hyped the game for a whole year and released it right before christmas (oh wait, there was a warning, yeah, but who gives a fuck?) proves that they wanted to make money. I don't blame the team for that, to me it was more like a BI decision, a bad move if you ask me.. but anyway we have the broken alpha and we can only wait and put our hopes on the team.

Inbf "Sounds like desync bro, after +50000 hrs I haven't seen a single hacker" On topic: It might be too early for private hives, but still I agree.

I know how you feel, I also miss that "friendly" aspect the mod had, in SA it only lasted a week, in fact the few friendly encouters I had in SA were during that week. One time I met this guy in a random house in berezino, we both were looking for a can opener and we talked a bit. Next time I met this group of 4-5 bambis when I respawned, we traveled together to elektro while sharing thoughs on the game. And thats it. All its left now is KoS or get handcuffed > get harasses by internet badass > force feed rotten kiwi > die.

The guilt quicky fades away with time.. My first kill when I started played the mod back in june 2012, I found this guy crawling around some random small town inland, and just killed him on sight without heasitating, he had good gear tho, a FAL if I recall which is a pretty nice gun and almost every tool and a bloodbag. So he would just kill me first if I gave him the chance. I regret nothing But then I mostly avoid people unless I feel that i need their gear or they are a threat Edit: OP you are not a dick. The only way to be a dick in this game is to get a LRS and camp elektro hill, balota airstrip and KoS every single bambi that tries to get some decent loot. I mean, there are many people that play the game with only to do that, and thats why there are so many dicks ingame.

You make a thread about "holy ground" and respect but expect people to not talk about religion? You are trolling, besides you clearly didn't understand my post I see, well me being catholic woulnd't find offensive to see some Pope zombie at all, or whatever because its just a game, but I guess we people are different

You make being orthodox sound like muslim extremism or something like that, its not really that different from catholic christianism except for some "political" differences and ritual protocols

If you are expecting some base building system like the one from epoch then I think SA its not your game.. Epoch was good but its building mechanics wouldn't fit in SA imho, too unrealistic

Yeah I am thinking the same... especially when you have custom mods from the original mod that can host servers with 70/70 players on and lots of buildings respawning loot. Yeah I am talking about overwatch, I play it a lot. I think the devs somehow fucked it up, something that seemed to work perfectly in the mod can't be implemented properly in SA, I would say it has something to doo with every building being enterable but still is weird

The amount of denial in the first page of this threads is amazing. Its like some people want to actually believe that the alpha is free of hackers
