Dev: H1Z1 To Have Slower Combat, Less Accurate Guns Than Shown

After the first H1Z1 stream, Jimmy Whisenhunt clarified that the game will have slower combat than what was shown, and guns will be less accurate.

Hopefully it will be a great sandbox. They are listening to the opinions of many users and this is a good thing.

Thank God, I didn't really like it in the stream. I also hope they add dismemberment at some point as it's such a huge part of a zombie game.

[MysticStrummer]

Agreed on both points. Another thing I noticed was that when the one guy was running from a group of zombies and eventually died, at one point he ran past a fence that looked like it should have been easily climbable/jumpable/vaultable.

I thought it definitely showed promise, and on the whole it looked better than the DayZ standalone footage I've seen. Being such a zombie fan I'll probably give both a try if both come to PS4.

Pretty uncommon to see developers admitting the LIES so soon.
The quickest bait and switch ever.

Now I don't really know which one is the lie and which is the proper gameplay. Who can guarantee that later they won't take the same path to cater the masses and simply go with the Rambo gameplay? The first advertisement was already heading this direction...

[Alexious]

I don't think it would pay off to do this as there are many other such games. To distinguish themselves they need to make it tactical enough.

Lies?

What?

[Palitera]

"Our game is not what we advertised."

[psuedo]

They'll have different servers for casuals, and hardcore people. Plus you can vote on new servers with rules you like. Do your research before commenting kiddo.

[Palitera]

You suck at reading.

"Quick answer to a FAQ: Combat will be slower than shown, that includes head movement, animation and weapon speed."

[MysticStrummer]

Advertised? They said more than once during the stream that things were changing all the time and some stuff they were showing wasn't meant to be representative of the final product.

I think you might need to look up the word "advertise".

Way to copy DayZ's success Sony.

Jealous much?

[psuedo]

Who? You, sony, or the Dayz guys? Dayz team has really taken some stumbles with their progress. A lot of fans are unpleased.

[MysticStrummer]

Looks better than DayZ.

I guess you don't play many games if you think it's a bad thing to improve on something else that came before.
