[ivan]

is this game worth a buy if i already have dayz?

[Andros]

The only thing that this game shares with dayz is zombies and eating and drinking and of course killing zombies

yea ive never heard the comparison, what you looking to compare to it? i have dayz and it depends on what you want, if you look over the view of the game, (first person) i personally use dayz as a pvp game with zombies nothing to it, if i want a game to survive and actually play like a zombie game i play zomboid

Haha, now that comparison I like

Honestly, you can't really compare both, even if the settings is quite similar, they play very differently. I'll try to point out the main differences :

-Project zomboid isn't a FPS and doesn't play like one. Even shooting with firearms relies on different factors other than the player's aim. The mouvement and animations (for the camera and character) are also another thing to master and part of the game design.

-Project zomboid is more a PvE/survival game than DayZ who's PvP for the most part. The zombies are many and designed to be the main threat, whereas in DayZ they are scarce. Project zomboid fits way better for a PvE experience than DayZ, though.

I'm not sure what else I could add. It really depends of what you're looking for in such game. What did you like the most in DayZ, or what do you think is currently missing and that you would enjoy, that you hope to find in another zombie survival game ?

This is far superior to DayZ.

Yes I agree. The two games are far more different than they are alike.

[Snarbles]

the zombies dont work in day z

[Death]

Completely different games. But this is better than DayZ. This is an actual zombie apocalypse simulator, while DayZ is nothing more than a PvP game in a zombie apocalypse wrapper.

1. This has hordes and hordes of zombies and has a similar feel to a Romero movie or The Walking Dead. While in DayZ, the zombies, when you do happen to run into one, aren't any kind of threat at all. You can just shoot them down with no worries of pulling more to your location. It is literally designed around PvP more than being a zombie apocalypse simulator.

2. I played the original DayZ years ago and the standalone is exactly the same thing. I've seen plenty of videos of the standalone as well, so I'm confident in my opinion there.

You should probably get it, its one of the best zombie games on the market.
