captainvette2112 84 Posted May 17, 2014 Vanilla sucked compared to EPOCH I understand that EPOCH can get crazy stupid with the whole 1000+ vehicles laZor pew-pew servers but that is all just server set up preference. I honesty cant understand how any objective viewer would not see EPOCH as a far superior gaming experience than Vanilla. Its like saying you prefer Windows 95 to Win 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
agentneo 337 Posted May 17, 2014 I would like to think there will also be some awesome servers that cater to a more PVE crowd with increased zombies, and low loot / rare vechicles! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I honesty cant understand how any objective viewer would not see EPOCH as a far superior gaming experience than Vanilla. Its like saying you prefer Windows 95 to Win 7 No, it's more akin to asking which is better: Call of Duty or Battlefield or Arma. They're all completely different games that appeal to different playstyles. They may all technically be "shooters", but they're really subgenres under the shooter umbrella. Vanilla DayZ appeals to specific players as does Epoch. Doesn't mean Epoch is better, just that some people want what Epoch offers and others want what vanilla offers. This is patently not objective. It's 100% subjective. You may prefer the Epoch experience, but I know quite a few people who don't want something so easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its about what the game can do. The crafting system of EPOCH makes it a better game. Tweak the loot tables as much as you want but the core of the game is still better.

hannibaldaplaya 1095 Posted May 17, 2014 If the game is still like it is right now, loot-wise and difficulty-wise, I will be making the most harsh mod ever when it is released. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
