MarkTheBandit 17 Posted August 5, 2012 Ok. So this is DayZ. The MMO zombie survival mod. What the hell is this then? http://thewarz.com/Is The WarZ in anyway affilated with DayZ? Or are they just trying to piggyback off of the idea? If that's the case, could they have not thought of a more distinct name? I mean really? DayZ vs WarZ.. give me a break -__- Apparently their devs have no sense of originality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lennsik 176 Posted August 5, 2012 It's a different, separate stand alone game that apparently has been in the works for years. We honestly know nothing of it as we've yet to see any footage of gameplay.As for originality, it was just chance that these two came in the news recently, even though they started years apart.

sausagekingofchicago 4711 Posted August 5, 2012 Total coincidence that their characters look like DayZ characters too..."screenshots" are fake. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aksovar 1 Posted August 5, 2012 I had the exact same feeling, they offer the features where dayz messes up. And the screenshots look like they have been taking out of Day Z but with some filters added on it. Sounds like vapourware 2 me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Herb (DayZ) 121 Posted August 5, 2012 warz was in development before dayz was ever startedreally, at least google it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
U.B.C.S. Hops 128 Posted August 5, 2012 You cant make a game in the time Dayz has been out.Nobody is ripping off anybody. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkTheBandit 17 Posted August 5, 2012 I think all these other clones are silly. I want to play DayZ. Not WarZ, Zday, or whatever else those geniuses come up with. Just give me a stable server without hackers or tents that delete all my gear and I'll pay for it. It's that simple. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkTheBandit 17 Posted August 5, 2012 You cant make a game in the time Dayz has been out.Nobody is ripping off anybody.There's no proof this WarZ thing is even a real game. There is no gameplay footage for it at all, not even a teaser trailer. They have nothing to show for it. I could make a website tonight called "ub3rl33tzombiesZZ" and claim that it's a game I've been working on for 3 years. As far as we know it could be just as legitimate as their "game" is. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's that simple.ZDay was actually in development over 4 years ago, so yeah, doesn't really qualify as a "clone". Either way, the notion that when a game or anything for that matter is made and should hold go without contention is just silly. Products need other products to raise the bar and set new standards.

There is logic and validity in your statement, but keep in mind DayZ isn't a game either, it is a mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lennsik 176 Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) The reason why WarZ hasn't released any footage is because it was just announced. Let's not forget a not too long ago released game called Skyrim had no footage for a while after it was announced.(Did have hell of a teaser though...)

But, im pretty sure you can't go around using companies names without their permission.As someone on this forum previously stated, it's just vapourware. It's nothing more than a concept and I'm sure Hammerpoint Interactive would have been happy to hop on the bandwagon and jump on the opportunity to get their name behind a new zombie mmo. Show us, the consumers, anything to actually signify there is a real game here. Give me a trailer, gameplay footage, anything. I mean supposedly this has been around for awhile, so where were they at e3? I know DayZ was there. On their website it says they're ending closed beta, but we have yet to even see a screenshot from them. Those "screenshots" they have right now, are not screenshots. They're concept art. Where's the HUD? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where's the HUD?Sorry man, but those screen shots are using 3D assets and elements. Not having a Hud in the shot doesn't mean shit. Here is a screen shot from Arma II http://swotti.starmedia.com/tmp/swotti/cacheYXJTYSAY/imgArma%2021.jpg No Hud, game must not be real. Now I am not saying that a few models and environments constitutes a game, but some of you people just talk out your asses on every level possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not saying just because it doesn't have a HUD that it's not real, that was just a single example of something I would like to see. My point was I'd like to see more than a couple 3D models if I'm going to look in to following a game, or even preordering it for that matter. They must literally have apes working in their marketing department, assuming WarZ is something more than just pen, paper, and a couple "screenshots". Now I know this is not a way to determine legitmacy in a company, but not even their youtube channel has anything. Any evidence you try to find to support this "game" will just lead you to some weasel commentating over a slideshow of their "screenshots". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
