Subject: So, apparently the WarZ creator is trying to apologize...

I'm an Indonesian Halo (and other games) gamer!
Bhineka Tunggal Ika!!

Sergey Titov just made an open letter in the forum, apologizing about all the backlash and controversy and also talking about what they'll implement in the futer.


And excerpt from his letter:
I need to admit that we failed to effectively communicate some of our plans and actions to both our existing players and to our new prospective players. This failure to communicate resulted in some very negative feedback from some members of our community, but while it might be easy to label them as "haters" or some other dismissive term, in all honesty this is my fault. I became arrogant and blinded by the early success and quick growth of The War Z, our increasing number of players, numbers we were getting from surveys, etc., and I chose not to notice the concerns and questions raised by these members of the game community as well as others. This failure is entirely on my shoulders and if anything I owe thanks to that vocal minority and admit that I should have paid attention sooner.

Well, the damage had been done and he already lost a pretty huge fanbase. Will this redeem all this WarZ "mistakes" and will you give him another chance for future project(s)?

He threw down a glove you made the mistake
Of picking it up now you're gone
The choosing of guns or fighting with swords
The choice of weapons is done
He'll tear you apart as soon as you start
You know you don't have a chance.

No.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

That is NOT SERGEY!!!

If you ever have seen his posts, they are always in broken English and make no sense. Also he repeatedly said we misread what they were saying and said hating the game was as dumb as saying the map was only 3x3 km^2, which it really was.

CamCamm: How does that work?

Im pretty sure with a letter like this he will proof read it or something. Im pretty sure it was written and grammatically fixed. Or someone else wrote it on his behalf.

He's the mstermind behind WarZ and Big Rigs. Look up those two games if you need to know what that means.

Well they should apologize, and then all of you should stop talking about it forever.

Every post whining about the weekly update delays it by 5 minutes.

#1 His English is way too good.

#2 Too little to late.

Yep. After the Gamespy interview I will never touch anything with his name associated with it.

Even if that is him that wrote that, there's still the attitude underneath that showed during the initial debacle.

Not to mention that he completely ripped off DayZ.

If you clicked on here to ignore my coup, why? Do I look ugly to you? Do I look fat in this dress or what? Jerk.

It's impossible to. You know how they lied about the game in the Steam description then later changed it? In the forums when he was thanking people for buying his game, he said he was "sorry" to the people who bought the game after "reading the game's description incorrectly".

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Lol.
The game is still a scam. Wouldn't be surprised if more -blam!- happens with it in the future.

  • 12.27.2012 1:17 PM PDT

Still an awful, buggy game. Sooooo....no.

From the ashes

People are tired of hearing it, they want you to put your words into actions. Which means shaping up, and not misleading everyone, and making it obvious that what you are trying to sell is in alpha or Beta.

So he can talk as much as he wants, but he needs to back it up.

Deny, deny, blame someone else, deny and when all else fails, apologize (sincerely or just because you have no other option)

I have not played WarZ nor even heard much about it. Why are so many people pissed off?
