wouldn't've take much to make this a amazing game dayz s was a scam when it came out and is still jank today but people love it. EFT is not on steam so it could end up doing well if they wanna put the work they have money to do so now. sound bad but i hope the bait switch was to get payed to now make the game they should have

It has potential

​@@1oli100I'm sure a lot of people will have refunded

Is there a "Final level" ? Last missions? Boss?

@@QIKUGAMES-QIKUNo, I shown pretty much everything in the game, the only thing this video doesn't show is a few cool PoIs, and the elevators, the elevators only go to 1 floor on all buildings that I have seen, and there isn't much up there other than like 1 locked door and loot. You cannot see out of glass looking down at the city from here either.

I believe so also, as they took the servers from propnight. Fuktastic

Come on now, they changed the name of the coffee shop to "Fntastic Coffee"--that was original work.

I covered it after the back in March of 2021 too: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hL2YZ7tppr2xqaM.html 100% agree with your comment though, these projects will continue because people fall for them, and seemingly there are no consequences for pulling off such a scam, in fact they even get an army of supporters for doing so!

@@Psi It's mostly uninformed masses. If we didn't know anything about the background of this dev and were only presented with the face of the product (trailers, demos, announcements, promises, etc), then this would look like a great game. If we're being honest, we were all more or less looking forward to see if these promises would actually be kept and if we'll get the product that was presented. Needless to say, we all got disappointed, but the real conversation topic is the follow-up. When it comes to games on Steam and possibly other platforms too, there should be far more regulation than there currently is. Obviously everyone wants their game to be on Steam, more or less, due to how much it increases their chances that their game will be played, so Steam should take some responsibility and create a formula to prevent things like this. Especially given how short the refund conditions are (2 hours max in the first 2 weeks, otherwise get fucked). Perhaps this game is evidently garbage, right off the bat, so 2 hours is enough time to formulate a proper impression on it, but there's A LOT of other games out there, some specifically designed in such a way that their entire gameplay focuses around keeping the player invested for the first few hours, only to discover that it's hot garbage afterwards. Often a bit too late for Steam to allow refunds (revenue lost). We all understand it's a business. We get it. We also understand that you simply can't educate just everyone, especially not when it comes to emotional intelligence (a lot of people simply go off the potential of the game, rather than the game itself). It's exactly these points that call for an extra body of developmental surveillance, especially in regards to EA games and their business practices. These game devs need to meet a certain level of competence and delivery of their product in order to receive the PRIVILEGE of having their game featured on Steam. It shouldn't just be a given, just because it makes Steam some extra money and often at the expense of all the customers involved.

@@BouncerMcDayGreen Yeah Steam does seem to really let anything slide on their platform (other than any crypto games). Although I really don't know what the next "scam game" on the horizon is (I feel like they were a lot more popular a few years ago), I am sure it won't be too long till we see it happen again! Unless AI can save us all?

@@Psi Hahaha, the next big one? Who knows. There's loads of small ones though. You make a good point about crypto, though. I've been on Epic for 10 minutes and immediately saw multiple crypto garbage scams. It was ridiculous. Although, besides that, it seems Steam really does allow anything nowadays - including P2W mobile game PC ports. I don't see them getting too much competition, but still, it'd be nice if they could tighten the leash on all these devs thinking they're entitled to the money of people who don't know any better. Anyways, thanks for the chat!

@@BouncerMcDayGreen "Uninformed masses" perhaps. However, I just can't see any regular person dropping money so blindly on a game. For example, I see an amazing trailer, I'm going to do a quick google search on the game just to see what style it might be, what kind of weapons or features might be in it, or even simply when the release date is. In doing so, there would likely be at least one eye-catching search result that would start to raise enough suspicion (red flag headline or even a youtuber expressing concern while being excited about the trailer) to keep a closer eye before I actually drop my money. That's literally how I started watching this game. That beautiful, raytraced trailer: "That looks amazing--like The Division, only zombies and better graphics. Oh, it's a survival game? Not my style, but man, it looks good." Later trailer/gameplay reveal (I forget): "Meh, that's definitely a downgrade, but gameplay still looks intriguing..." And it went downhill from there quickly. If they had released within a year of that beautiful trailer, I could get it, but this journey has been so long and such a spiral that anyone googling the game within the past month has a plethora of red flags instantly on each search--there's not a single source out there that didn't have some sort or reservations or even outright speculate that it was a scam or simply unable to deliver.

Reminds me of ark being called “shootergame”

💯💯💯

The city was bought... and its the base... what took 3-5 years? lol

@@narkosis1437 no it didn't take that long at all, it wouldn't even with novice/beginner programmers, if I had to guess I would say that years ago it was a small group that were WAY too ambitious, then probably this year a little before, or right around when it went on steam, before it was taken down because of the copyright stuff, is when they started and put together what actually got released

I don't think they've actually programmed anything that wasn't already provided in scripts by default by UE. I doubt the volunteers are even real. You can buy samples of stock working games as a foundation to build upon that are already programmed. Probably why the Fatal Error message addresses the game's service as "UE-Survival game" and not "The Day Before". This is by definition a scam and a asset flip. Otherwise why would programming basic movement and interactions and ai voice overs take 5 years and that none of the basic promised features are in the game? Heck if your character gets stuck somewhere you have to delete it and start over. Look at the mirrors they're still images lmao

Leave it to the Chinese to steal something and make it shitty. You would think with the amount of shit they steal and copy they would at least be good at it and even make it better

hahahaha, I thought you were actually going to list off some things you actually enjoy. I do think the world is pretty but ran horribly for me (but some said it was super smooth so IDK, maybe my 3080 is melting?) and the weapon list/modding is pretty decent, other than that, the rest is pretty bad.

@@Psi For me the biggest issue is the gameplay loop/quests. Tarkov is how its meant to be done (quests) when it comes to a balance of finding items, killing pmcs/scavs, using different weapons, placing markers etc etc. The gameplay loop in eft is all about progression, becoming stronger and more geared over time, levelling up skills as you know. However here, it's pretty inexistent. After 3/4 runs tops i could see myself getting bored asf even if the game ran perfectly. And to top it off, the fact looting is holding the F key, and you can't see items on the shelves etc. is such a lazy choice of design, you could never get that thrill of seeing a 'super rare item' laying in the corner of a room or whatnot. You don't really care what you find in this game, there's no serious scale of different item rarity that get's your blood rushing when you find a rare item, wanting to extract. It's all so bare bones. YAP.

@@aaronmacca Yeah, we love EFT.

Pencil: Am I dead matter to you?

He also makes scam games, so he felt that warm cozy feeling

I saw his stream, he is so boring, not funny, without wide games knowledge, without courage streamer. Only what he have is his cringe alter ego. He told this game check all the boxes, he didn't notice any major problems with this game. Lol I'm sure his game has similar qualities, that's why nobody plays it.

Dr.Delusional

I assumed he must have gotten lucky with game stability (like BigFry's first run)... along with subconsciously comparing the game with his own (which is nowhere near as far along in development as TDB was supposed to be). I'm not a fan of his at all, but I was so surprised when someone mentioned that in the other streams I was watching that I briefly had a look at Dr Disrespect's channel... he certainly didn't look like he was enjoying it, and died to the same glitch I'd seen 3 other streamers get hit with. I've fallen into the same trap of comparing progress on my own project with one that's at a different stage, confusing the hell out of my colleagues... I am being pretty charitable with that interpretation though!

0/10

Yeah I was surprised to see even in IGN's video they got the same bug, seems very common, no idea how that one snuck by lol.

loool tru

thank u jj

I feel like they will have to say something, they aren't shy to the camera, we will see in the upcoming days.

There is a video of a discord call with some of the devs

@@Psigon hit u with the “it just works”

Wrong the original devs left this 🤡 and he bought assests and hired some more People and tried to still put it out. Then regards like this youtuber still gave them money

@@krazykuz13cmcso its pretty much the same lol i hope this game wins a new award for “first game with a 100% refund rate”

needs to be a lawsuit then. thats like me offering to sell you a ps5 then when i ship it to you its a ps4 and i sayd top deal with it, its illegal as fuck and until we get the crazy fans back who attack people its never gonna stop

Yeah, both Russian too loool

yup. anyone whos been around for a while knew this was going to be complete bs from the first trailer. it looked like a higher budget version of the division mixed with dayz made by an unknown developer. also been around since the start of survival games and have been burned enough times to know whats possible and what isnt.

IDK what you mean by heals your energy, you get max HP, stam, food drink etc very quickly just by being in the safezone, no reason to go to sauna.

there's also a ps5 and an xbox one, sunrise 6 and gbox lol

Miscreated's map paired with something like DayZ would have been awesome, shame it's dead now, it deserved more love, but I guess part of that is on the devs if they cannot make a core game system that clicks with people.

Check my new video xd

Fntastic will make millions from this, regardless of this hit to their reputation, that's how :P

There is 100% credit due on the city. I know a lot of people act (yourself included) like the city is just some asset they bought and called it a day, but there are clearly a lot of assets that have been tweaked, or made from scratch for the city.

Possibly the funniest live moment ive ever been in stream for

loool

That's just not happening though, let's be real

true only time will tell@@Psi

​@@davewhittlestime won't tell, no modder is going to spend time on this game, its a broken mess and the devs will abandon it eventually

ok

It started on Arma 2 DayZ mods......

ye i did that too in arma 2 and gmod rp servers@@Alexander-Kurtz

@@bettertelevision968 Remember the Hospital PVP server?. Day Z mods servers were so fun.

Look above the tags: "Popular user-defined tags for this product", user-defined, so not in their control.

@@Psi Yea under that and relevant games, they list it as an MMO. Even won an award in 2013 for "best mmo"

​@@ohnaur23 I mean tbh you CAN call DayZ an MMO if you want, that is fair, but my main point is this is 1/5th what DayZ is in terms of scale and player count, and I think many would not think DayZ when you hear MMO, It's like when you think of WoW, you think "MMO", when you think of DayZ, you think "survival game". The Day Before made the WE ARE AN MMO thing front and center, almost as if it could defy DayZ in that sense.

@@Psi Btw, Dayz was a mess at launch (2014), still 10x times better than this!

@@Psi Good point but I guess the day before wont have any tags on steam now RIP lmao

My point is it is quicker to just menu in EFT, it's just annoying running everywhere when it could just be functional menus like EFT, but maybe that is just me.

Dude, quit defending this garbage.

What did I call it? I am bad with names lol.

@@Psi woodhaven. Its alright, i thought i was wrong lol game is so bad

That theory makes no sense, but time will prove that it makes no sense.

@@Psi Eroktic uploaded a pretty good video talking about how some devs have the actual finished game locked because they were unpaid or something and that we're playing on version 0.1. Not sure how trustworthy it is but I'd recommend giving it a watch.

Pretty weird for it to be an old version when they launched it on steam as a version 1.0

hello

good video big guy @@Psi

I did try refund it after 17 hours game time out of curiosity, I tried the normal refund and even a support ticket, denied for both. Not surprised, I did a subathon for the game, if I was a normal consumer I would refund for sure, but alas for me, it is stream content!

@@Psiwhich is why YOU are part of the problem and why they will do it again.

tbh even with just voip this game would be like 5x better, but yeah, it's certainly not what was advertised.

How exactly? I very much doubt this statement.

EFT is cool too if you don't mind smaller (but incredibly detailed) maps.

I can't rec that game to anyone lol Unless you wanna hate life and just get mad @@Psi

Cope

Nah it was important to show just how poorly designed all game elements are in this broken game. Not that we needed more info on why to avoid it, but it was fun to see just how shallow it is, and how utterly incompetent at game design they are.

Glue sniffer

A money dupe would not stop me from getting in and out of the car, and bullets were bought, not duped. The game is a buggy mess is the reason I had these issues, not because of duping money. Did I fall through the floor in the intro to the game because of duping too?

@@Psiwell you can’t say for sure unless a dev told you so. Netcode is made by an indie studio. Wouldn’t be surprised if glitching would lead to such a mess. Personally I didnt experience any bugs so far (beside the weird huge bodies).

@@battlebrother2390 If you enjoy it, good for you, regardless, the original trailer is nothing like the final product, I am not sure why you feel the need to strong defend people that deceived you.

Hahaha what? Thats not how its works, good try tho. Its a shit game, thats the problem.
