So you charge for "early access" to a game that will be free to play, and then you can buy items in the game as well. And of course you take a hatchet to as much staff as possible as soon as you launch your "early access" in order to cash in as profitably as possible. http://kotaku.com/big-layoffs-at-everquest-studio-today-1685243961 Why on earth people keep supporting these lovely business practices with their money and attention is beyond me.

This actually isn't surprising, given that they can no longer suckle on the teet that is Sony. They probably didn't leave Sony with huge capital reserves either, and if you think about their existing IPs, none of them are huge revenue generators. At this stage, their entire future will be predicated on H1Z1 generating enough money for them to finish EQNext, or they will go under completely. Which, when you think about it, is actually totally fine, since they will sell off their IPs and more competent companies might pick them up.

I never played any other survival horror MMOs but if we take that into context, fixed the bugs, removed the hackers and added the needed polish how would this stack up to competitors?

If they removed the hackers and polished it up it would be the best of the PvP-centric survival zombie games. But that is true of every single PvP-centric survival zombie game currently available.

Every one of these games would be the best one if they "solved the hacker problem" so that kinda tells you the actual content doesn't really matter because these all have various spins on base building, scavenging, zombie stuff and so on. People just want a game without hackers and no studio from big ones with tons of developers to little ones with a risk taking attitude and fresh ideas has been able to accomplish it. The magic feature of the genre isn't a fantastic crafting system, scary and exciting zombies or next gen cupboard rummaging simulation... it's just not having every play session punctuated with a hacker encounter.

They've actually been banning a TON of teleport hackers, they're banning within a day or two based on logs. I've been watching hack site forums actively. They're actually doing a better job than any other game is, trust me. People will get tired of wasting money soon. What's going on is they're getting around bans, but they still have to buy a new account.

Giving H1Z1 and planetside to competent devs would be amazing. However knowing what happens to F2P games they'll both likely get the APB treatment.

That would be a pretty sweet out for Bliz: everyone is sick of WoW and expects them to reinvent the MMO next time they make one, but if they pick up the Everquest brand they don't gotta do poo poo except make a cool new Everquest, and they already did that once

Looks like the guy that writes patch notes was spared the chopping block.quote:Servers will go down at 3AM PST 2/12 for approximately 2 hours. drat good patch, assuming the new lighting engine doesn't make your video card explode. Also sad to see the wacky stacked/overlapping foundation bases will now be a thing of the past. I should take some screenshots of Pleasant Valley on Willamette to preserve some piece of their majesty.

They neglected to mention it but they fixed the player loading into the game before placed structures so this means you can't just log out and log in through barricades anymore. But it also means you can log out of your base and actually log back in it instead of under it. I tried my damndest to find a shotgun to test out and found tons of ammo for it but no actual gun. Lots and lots of AR15s, hunting rifles and pistols, though. Pistols, BTW, kinda suck now because it takes 2-3 headshots to kill a zombie with one so I can only imagine how many a player can take. Lighting system is nice but way too goddamn bright. I expect it to be toned down in the next patch and apparently it does weird things with fog.

After going through War Z's launch, I feel like once a company realizes they're making more money from "banning" the hackers who re-buy accounts than they are from the non-cheating players, the countdown starts to abandoning the game based on how long it takes word to circulate that non-hackers needn't bother with it at all and they just run out the clock on steam sale impulse buyers. Although I am curious how that strategy would affect a microtransaction f2p game versus a single buy-in title.
