I wouldn't say it's a scam but it does have it's share of issues. On a side note this game is pre-order Alpha. Where you are playing through the game before it is officially released. You pay $15 to get into the game. (the game is supposed to retail for $50-60 stand alone game with micro transaction market. It was never intended to be a finished game and is discounted to generate revenue for the game and get ppl playing it.
Minecraft did the exact same development route. You buy it for $15 while it was in development and enjoy playing it "as is". When it released they started charging $30 to play. It's the same concept.
The developers are doing a pretty bad job of PR and letting the public know that this game "IS" in development. So ppl buy it up for cheap expecting a finished game when it is not. So they get angry, and rightfully so. But it's a unrealistic expectation not a fault in the game.
It is hardcore where other players can loot your items, and you must collect food and water to survive or die from starvation or dehydration.
If you can respect the challenge of a survival game this game is for you! Playing solo starting out is a HUGE challenge! because it's you against the world! Oh and a horde of zombies! Which compared to the players are easy
I have a group of players I trust and play on a regular basis. It's extremely fun at times in a group! And your friends if you die can usually pick off your attacker and give back your stuff!
I have ran into my share of hackers, which the developers need to find a fix for.
I love this game! Night time is pitch black and you CAN NOT compensate by jacking up your gamma! Which is the way games should be if your going to take night hunting seriously!and you really need to use it for cover!
but it's a game you really need to reset your expectations on before you get into. Play it for the survival horror it is!



and you really need to use it for cover!
