I still like the game.   Paramount filed a copy write complaint against The War Z saying the name was too close to their movie World War z, and since Paramount put in the copy write request 10 days before The War Z did they were granted an injunction against The War Z.   Instead of fighting it they chose to change the games name.

I am kinda surprised that they didn't try and make Day Z change it's name because it has a Z in it.

Still the same game, new name, new loading screens.

they updated boulder pretty good added a lot of tents and a rundown safe zone that got over run. just got a m107 and a bison and a another gun called tar-21 something like that they kick butt gonna hang out here and get some more gear before heading to the military base to see the changes there.

I read in.the patch notes that they fixed some of the pyshx issues which was causing crashes.. I know this may help some people lioe cyphis that were saying they were crashing.

It still doesn't change the fact that it's a cash in on the DayZ hype.


I still regret buying it.

I haven't played it lately, but it definitely has features Day Z doesn't and that opinion came from an avid Day Z player I know.

I dont see it as a cash in at all.   There are massive games being made about zombies coming out soon, and they all look and feel the same.   Will that keep my from buying them?  Nope, and honestly War Z is a better game then the Day Z mod.  Now the Day Z standalone looks to be WAY better then then mod and I will get that once it's released.

It's a new genre, survival games.

Day Z might get a lot of credit, but that doesn't mean it's a good game.

Day Z and War Z/Infestation are hack jobs compared to what we will see in the near future.
