Funny how EVERY single point he mentioned is actually something that makes this game awesome and uninique. You are clearly a more "mainstream" gamer so i suggest you go back to call of duty or battlefield. A good example of some QQ: You say there is no friends system and you don't know where they are. Well.. you use voice chat, you look at your sorroundings to see where you are, then you open a map and see where you need to go. You may even need to use roadsigns..The same things applies too all of your friends. Then you all agree on a spot to meet up at.. when you start getting there you have to actually let people know where you are coming from because you never know, it might be some other survivor who will kill you all, or your own friends might accidently shoot you theirself, if you dont let them know where you are coming from. If you have broken bones then.. well you should always carry morphine. Otherwise you need to ask your friends to come and get you.. just like you would in real life. I have been waiting for a game like this forever and finally its here !! The only other game i can think of that has a similar steep learning curve is Eve.. and just like CoD or Battlefield player cannot play DayZ .. WoW players simply cannot play something like Eve. Im pretty sure if an actualy zombie apocalpyse took place people would most likely shoot you in the face to get food. Cant wait untill this game goes through Alpha and Beta and gets released.. because damn it deserves to be !
