Planetside 2 runs nicely for the amount of things it has to support. Engine is almost certainly going to be better. The zombie pathing is probably going to be screwy, but I'm thinking it will be less likely to bottleneck your system in cities, and I'm betting physics deaths are going to be a lot less frequent. biggfoo posted:Can you fish in this game? Fishing has been mentioned on multiple occasions, and I think there was even a screenshot posted of a dev spear-fishing, so I think it's in? It could be one of those features that never materializes, but I think fish are in the game, and fish with no fishing would be dumb. E: More updates from one of the developers quote:1.

A few of us are idling in the H1Z1 channel under the Misc section on CTS mumble. Tomorrow we'll make a collective effort to all get on the same server between queues and inevitable crashes. There is already primitive base building in game, and Eonwe (Who played the game at SOE Live) suggested some potential spots. If you guys are interested in playing and dying horrifically together, find us there. You can also add me, Kimsemus, on Steam. Kimsemus fucked around with this message at 07:30 on Jan 15, 2015 |

You can extract blood from zombies with a syringe, handcuff pubbies, and inject them to infect them. I guess I didn't really want that 20$ anyway.

You could just merge it with the old early access thread because almost every single survival game seems to be early access. The only one I think that ever made it out was Nether, and apparently that sucks.

Kizurue posted:Or just reuse arrows that you shot zombies with. That should definitely be a thing. Also from all the guest streamers they had running, it seems that fall damage isn't the biggest killer like in DayZ thankfully. I am actually decently excited to try it out tonight, especially with the mass rush to figure out recipes and beating each-other to death for blackberries and scrap metal.

Just kidding, launch delayed until 12pm PST. "No preload. Sry. Last minute few things we are fixing" It begins   E: Zuhzuhzombie!! posted:Anyone play both h1z1 and Day Z wanna chime in with a comparison? H1Z1 is built on what is almost certainly a better engine than what DayZ uses. The amount of autism in H1Z1 is also probably a lot lower, so while that means no feeding people bleach or whatever, it also (probably) means more shootmans, less buggy (but still buggy) zombies, and less "My balls are wet. I'm drying off. My balls are wet. I'm soaked. I'm drying off. I have hypothermia. I'm hungry. My balls are wet." LuciferMorningstar fucked around with this message at 17:22 on Jan 15, 2015 |

Tryhard redditors are going to identify in game using their "signature" cowboy hats. I feel like we should use cowboy hats to easily identify each other too, and just communicate on mumble because we're not plebs.

Will there be otters? I also have a trap in mind but it requires live porcupines. I hope they're not stopping at the old boring "bear, mountain lion, squirrel" classic North American trio of forest animals.

I'm hoping this game can bring together the WarZ goons and Highby's Heros (PS2) goons, the two most fun groups of people to play games with. Hopefully there isn't a limit on how many walls one person can build, so we can do stupid things like surrounding a town with walls and making naked newbies fight to the death gladiator style.  so I can spend my

Just join CTS where we are all going to be playing. Also: http://www.reddit.com/r/h1z1/comments/22p8rc/monetization_in_h1z1/ This thread. BILLBOARDS, SMEDLEY LET COMPANIES PAY FOR BILLBOARDS IN THE GAME. Because that worked so well in the first Planetside, where Need for Speed: Tokyo Drift would play for 3 years before you got in the dropship.

Luckily I haven't bought any of the other hundreds of zombie games so I won't feel bad about purchasing this one. The reason this one appeals to me is 1.) there appears to be an actual focus on providing an ample number of zombies as opposed to one or two every square mile and 2.) they will be attempting to get more people on each server as opposed to one or two every square mile.
