PVE? This could be because they haven't fully increased the zombie population. I understand feeling a bit ripped off if you purchased the game with that type of server in mind. Should also note this alpha isn't a "true" alpha, but it also isn't a finished product.

I'm looking at PVE as an alternative for when I've had a rough day and don't feel like dealing with others, but want to play. I feel like I should have to worry about people with violent intentions in a zombie apocalypse.

I'll always contend PVE was an afterthought in this game. Thought that the night before release, still under that impression.

I saw pve servers and wondered... "why?"

Something like EQ I can understand, but a game about dying, death, zombies and shady goings on... seems weird to fence yourself in on a pve server. Build a base, get a car, guns, ammo, etc. Then what?

PVE servers were even too slow for me.

I didn't know they were server wiping but I was prepared to lose my base and stash "for science", but as we know with the patch notes we can expect more wipes... so the enjoyment can't be about setting up anything too permanent.

The most fun becomes just spawning and looking for the nearest people to kill, or griefing in inventive ways. People are so easily mad, they haven't played red or anything like it obviously [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Is it odd that random people trying to hit me on a PVE server is more annoying to me than getting killed pointlessly on PVP? I generally wait to kill people until they take a shot at me.

The key to this game for my personal enjoyment? Making the zombie population large enough to encourage cooperative play, and discourage some from simply attempting to kill everyone. I'd love to see a balance between the KOS style player and people looking for trustworthy allies to help them battle hordes near developed areas that we hopefully won't be able to venture into alone. One style far outweighs the other in my experience so far.

Mirrors my thoughts on The Walking Dead. Not as entertaining when the zombies become a minor concern, and it's all about Rick vs. Whoever.

Agreed. I think PvE should be more prevalent -- and more rewarding. One idea I had was to have zombies yield EXP, and allow characters to be "leveled up", similar to EverQuest. Except in H1Z1 you could gain attributes, like running faster, jumping higher, better aim, etc.

Wanted to check this game out; but after trying Rust on this computer I'm not sure it will run great. I think its just time to get a new computer on tax return day [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
