I wanted to prove to a friend that this game was p2w, so he forked out for an airdrop. The airdrop dropped outside the map, I managed to scale the mountain and find it, only to be killed by DoT from being outside the map. Maybe it's a social commentary on p2w?

Getting really tired of hearing about the P2W nonsense. If anything it is a Pay-for-possible-temporary-advantage, which is what EVERY Free to Play game on the market offers. If you were guaranteed the airdrop, guaranteed a gun with ammo and it persisted through death, then yes it would be Pay-to-win. The simple fact that you drop everything you are carrying on death makes it balanced (to me, at least).

For me, this P2W stuff has been more like pubbies pay money for things and then I kill them and I get the things they paid money for so  And then there are times when I kill them, steal their stuff, then kill their friends with their stuff and that's pretty great.

It's sort of like those free cam sites where pubbies (suckers) pay the stripper to take her clothes off and the rest of us get to  for free.

This game will be like Planetside 2 - amazing in beta and early on when there are tons of noobs jumping on the bandwagon. But like once the noobs get consistently owned and frustrated they'll leave, and SOE reduce support of the game as there isn't as much cash coming in. The biggest trick will be balancing the noobs vs the pro gankers. Personally dont think it's possible - but do love the look of this game. While I sit on the fence I'm watching: http://www.twitch.tv/cohhcarnage e: it's me: i'm the noob Jamsta fucked around with this message at 20:34 on Jan 19, 2015 |

Usually balance requires a reward system to go along with the gameplay. This issue is there is no gameplay let alone a proper reward system.

Since Mario isnt jumping over blocks, no cars are racing on a track and you dont have to kill 10 bears and take their asses to level its not gameplay? Or do you mean in game content?

Gameplay usually requires a, hopefully, fun mechanic with an achievable goal.

Actually, PvP is 95% of the enjoyable part of any game for me. I understand most people don't share the same idea, but games like this are oriented towards that mindset IMO.

It's a PVP sandbox. There doesn't need to be an endgame to make it fun for most of us.

Can you destroy other peoples base parts and use them for your own? Like walls, barb wire, shacks etc.

So the zombies don't walk through walls, and it has functional vehicles. Okay I'm in. DayZ can't die fast enough. Also I was watching some gameplay videos. Why don't goons build their base inside the middle of an existing town? You'd get respawning loot. Or is your idea of respawning loot just the constant stream of pubbies running into your meat grinder of a base during an assault?

The fun part is walking 15 real life Kilometers/miles to hopefully play with some friends and not die! Then the real game of walking 15 kilometers/miles to some other place begins!

I get it, and I hate these types of games and agree there are more fun games, but when you shoot a guy in the head with an arrow and steal hours of work from him its very satisfying and makes the other parts totally worth it and yes i referred to playing the game as work

Launch a game and start shooting at other peeps with friends within a few seconds? Instead hold "w" for about an hour before that. Are you mentally challenged or unemployed?
