Grab The Games: H1Z1

You may say another early access zombie title. Well you are right and wrong at the same time. But let me start from the beginning. In H1Z1 you enter a world that has been overrun by zombies and fellow survivors since the H1Z1 virus outbreak. Fight for your life against the infected and against the brutality of others as you attempt to live and see another day. Every moment is borrowed time with one question to answer. Will You Survive?

The title launched on 15/1 with a lot of problems. Among them there were connections issues, log in issues and server problems but the team managed to fix these issues within hours (it is always good to see restless dev teams to care about their game and act quickly to fix the problems that occur) After the first day I decided to start playing the game but the queue in every server was at least 2 hours long. Which meant if you want to play you should wait 2 hours to enter a session. But let me take a break from the negative and mention the positive aspects. The graphics in this game are decent for such an early stage of development and the nature looks really amazing. The map is big enough and includes a lot of different surrounding from lakes to houses etc.

Another aspect I like in this game is how easy it is to learn how to craft and the whole inventory in general something that is really hard and confusing sometimes in another games. Another aspect worth mentioning is definitely the fight system in this game. When you face other survivors or zombies you can fight with your fists you can even uppercut them or you can use different weapons you can find in game via drops or in crates (I will talk more about them later). Another positive of this game so far is that the zombies can be pretty much anywhere from buildings to the drops you were waiting to arrive. I also love the random element in this title. You can spawn anywhere in the game and in different maps, the zombies are always in different locations and also the drops contain different random items from weapons to bandages. Have I forgot to mention that there are cars in the game? Well there are and they are a really good addition.

On the other hand, there are some negative aspects in the game I should mention. Before I start I should say that the game is really early in development and there is a long way to go until it is finished so of course bugs and glitches exist in the game. That is the normal thing to happen when you launch a game that early. Most people complain and give negative review for the game because blah blah blah pay to win.. 2 hours wait blah blah. Well so far, I believe that air drops affect in some way the outcome of the game but I don't think they affect it that much for the game to be pay to win. Of course it will be great if there were more loot options to balance the whole game. Another negative aspect of the game is like in dayz the most unfriendly community that they will kill you by the time they see you.

To sum up, people should play the game more before telling their opinions. The game is in early access, it is amazing and really enjoyable. Of course there are negative aspects in the game and they are totally expected and should be treated in that way. The devs are working 24/7 to fix everything and bring more features in the game and that is what I want to see from them and what made me believe more in this title and its great feature. H1Z1 will be also FREE-TO-PLAY when out of early access. I totally recommend this game to everyone. I had a really great time playing H1Z1 and there is a great feature in this title! A hard working dev team equals a great game. So how much you will survive?

Note: The game is in a early phase of development and should be treated in that way. I am not sure if it is appropriate to rate it but if I had too my verdict would be 7, 5 /10… the game has a bright feature ahead.
