This was released today, October 8th, on the hive workshop! I just thought I'd warn you!

Thank you. I have contacted the mods on hiveworkshop about this.

They won't do much, Russian. It's a map uploading/downloading site, they could care less for things like that.

TheRussianLord · 10-08-2007

The thing is that I submitted World War Z for hosted project status on hive.

Nos-Feratu. · 10-08-2007

Do they have any credits to anyone in the WWZ business aside from themselves?

TheRussianLord · 10-08-2007

On the loading screen it gives credits to you Nos and Apples. In quests it also gives credit to me and dante.

King Stubby · 10-08-2007

however, they said that it was an official version.

TheRussianLord · 10-09-2007

Like i said, I have already contacted the admins at hive about this. I have informed them that it is an illegitimate rip-off. The thing is that the version is much older then the current WWZ maps. It has far less units, and uses the regular terrain. I don't think it will be able to take off the ground.

Besides, I'm pretty sure that in the comments, we made it pretty clear that it's a ripoff!

Combat system and the human unity in the face of the zombies threat.

panther either you have never played WWZ, or you have no idea what is about. I see maybe to things similar from WWZ to europa style maps, and that is the capturing cities and everyone is alone at the beginning. I don't know any other europa style map where it humans vs zombies, or in some cases humans vs humans vs zombies. That making a HUGE difference in the gameplay.

Don't mind panther.

I still need to play WWZ myself...

King Stubby · 10-12-2007

panther's post was deleted for having no real point.

HyperReaper33 · 10-12-2007

...Sweet.

Well, if I find this ripoff anywhere, I shall intelligently Spam the crap outta' them.

I;d appreciate if global mods didn't delete posts in this forum. He raised a concern that he had over WWZ and I anwsered it. Whoever deleted that post I would appreciate if you return the post and not interfere in this forum. Thank you.
