My feelings are that they definitely are being a bit greedy with the airdrops however if it's implemented correctly it's not guaranteed pay2win.
In regards to the game...
I've been Watching this on twitch and it's looking great however the zombies don't seem to do anything and everyone just runs round them? Is this a bug?

The Zombies just stand there and do nothing at the minute.

I'm enjoying it. The graphics are amazing, animations are fantastic, the zombie AI blows Breaking Point's out of the water. This is everything I was hoping DayZ SA would become. It reminds me of when WarZ was actually good.

Not sure if being sarcastic or... When was it ever good? People should have gone to jail over that abomination.

I'm thinking of jumping in...will it be the Dayz gameplay like i remember!

Neil79 · 16 Jan 2015 at 21:39

Not yet no

Looks like loads of servers are rebooting.

Edit: In fact all the servers are down.

Thesnipergecko · 16 Jan 2015 at 22:48

I thought they were going down 2 hours ago for 2 hours?

Are we to assume its going to be 2 hours from now they will be back up?

Edit: Steam just updated mine.

Patch just came up on steam, perhaps they'll be back up soon.

10hours of time clocked up in steam (about 80% waiting for a server) and I found scrap metal once

You're looking for scrap metal?? Find a car and keep hitting it

Thesnipergecko · 16 Jan 2015 at 23:59

Servers should be back up at 12:30 according to Twitter.

What he said ^^^^

How do you build a furnace btw? Wiki seems to have a blank page on it atm. Need a recipe or not in game yet?

Just watched some youtube game play of this.......WOW is all I can say, I know its early access but charging £20 to play as it stands is just wrong. Another game by the looks of it that sums up everything wrong with the modern game industry and this whole pay for 'early access' thing when big companies are involved. Just my opinion. The concept is good but it needs a huge amount of work, at least its SOE so they wont do a DayZ and take the money and run; hopefully.

Witcher1979 · 17 Jan 2015 at 00:17

Instead of just saying "WOW" as that makes you sound like a troll..... Why don't you say why and give some reasons? Also the game is EA, everything will change for the better, even the graphics are just place holders.

Also check out miscreated, they charge a lot of money and after two months you still cant actually join a server as they don't have the license to axxs the crytek netcode to fix the issue.

Have to say great feedback from these guys, they understand the faults and are fixing them as fast as the coding will allow. Some EA devs think they are right no matter what everyone else says which can be a good thing, depending on the direction of the game.

EA done right so far, just like project zomboid. Few EA titles do actually really want the games to get better and make more money. Shame we have a few stinkers like stomping land and miscreated.

You do know the game is made by SOE (Sony Online Entertainment) don't you. It uses the same engine as Planetside 2 (forgelight engine).
