The War Z

[Slick Rick]

The only thing that annoys me about this game is this quote from the website under the FAQ:

Rich Fan: "I want PAY FOR WIN! I have lots of money to spend!"

"Sorry pal, but this is the wrong game. Like in a real-world, post apocalyptic scenario, your money will mean much less than your natural survival skills, training and wits."

and then they actually turn into a pay-to-win model, which I personally am not a big fan of. I'll wait until the game comes out to try it out, no point in playing if massive clans of little kids stealing their parents' credit cards will rule the world :/

If it's WarZ you are talking about then, good sir, you are wrong. Why, just two days ago I came behind a player who had a beret, a metal bat and a M4 semi. I killed him with my trusty, bloody and rusty hammer. Now the bat and the beret can only be bought for now, or are extremely rare. He had an assault rifle (he might have found it) and a lot of other valuable supplies.
Did any of those (probably) store-bought items help him? The answer is no, I bashed his brains in without a problem. So, this game is not a pay-to-win game...

Back to OT, here are some links to recent game-related news:

In P2W MMO's for example, it's almost always possible for the people who aren't paying2win to beat those who are, and that's usually the devs argument as well. Sooo, it doesn't make you invincible = it's not P2W? Hardly. People take the term Pay 2 Win too seriously, you aren't literally going to win and be the best because you're paying for extra shit, it's just gonna give you an advantage, a lot of people happen to not like that kind of mechanic in a game and that should be understandable.

So like I said, don't take the term so literally because this game is in fact "Pay2Win"
