Author Topic: The War Z (Mega Thread)  (Read 1504 times)



Most of you are familiar with the ArmA II mod DayZ. If you are one of those people than this thread will definity interest you.

So what is War Z? War Z is a stand alone game influenced by DayZ. It is a MMO survival, post zombie apocalypse, pvp and pve (player vs environment). It will feature multiple maps ranging from 200 to 400 square kilometers. Note that DayZ is set in Cherstar fish which is only 225 square kilometers. Public servers will have a player limit of 250! The highest player cap server on DayZ is only 100. Now before you start yelling "COPY!" understand that this game was being developed before DayZ was out.

Sadly their aren't any gameplay videos yet, just some screenshots.

So when does it come out? Well surprisingly very soon, sometime later this fall. While you wait you can sign up for their closed beta which is suppose to start later this summer. Sign up on their official website here - http://www.thewarz.com

Signed up for beta, and Day Z developers are saying War Z copied them but as you said this was being developed before Day Z, and their aware of this. forgetin' Day Z...

Anyways I hope I actually get more than 20 frames in this as to Day Z where I get 5.



Both ARMA mod and this game should bow to the master book take inspiration from this book.

You know the World War Z movie is coming out soon?

Well if you are talking speed wise
They said (i read an article) they run slightly slower than the player giving you a chance to outrun them given you have enough stamina but they said it will be hard.
