GAME ERROR G99

 

[Panda Rin]

203k people watching H1Z1 login screens on twitch. What?

 

[JumpJeff84]

I don't see any mention of PvE in the OP, but people have said it exists. What do we know about that mode, if anything?

What else am I supposed to while waiting to log in?

You can buy a crate for 9.99 that gives you high-end weapons and ammo. Sometimes they also contain stuff like night vision goggles or a ghillie suit and that kinda stuff.

Taken from the second page, I'm assuming this is still correct.

Excellent, thanks for this.

 

[DizzyCaffeine]

Can't decide between this and Divinity. I loved Rust (for about 2 months) but I'm afraid I'll grow tired of H1Z1 long before it's out of early access (like Rust).

 

[Shady859]

Case and keys are going to be just like GC:Go if I understood it correctly. Then the tickets like TF2 tix and the $9.99 came outta his butt I think...

$9.99 for one crate? The fuck.

Popping out to show the error message is so...odd.

Divinity with no hesitation whatsoever.

That's a good price for the weapon crates. I'll probably buy a few.

Twitch streamers are bored and boring as hell. Really shows that most of them can't keep anyone entertained without a game.

Ya a lot are, my favorite streamers are the ones that actually talk about their life and actually act like a real person.

Richard_hammer is great for this, just sits back, smokes some cigs and talks about random shit. If someone asks a personal question he'll go into detail.

why did you waste the money then?

Straight from the website

Crates – one of our primary monetization methods is crates. You are given crates over time simply for playing. The keys will cost 250 Station Cash ($2.50) and can be purchased in bundles for less per key. Inside the crate are skins that can make your character or equipment even cooler. However you have to actually find items in-game to reskin. So if you get a military backpack camo pattern.. you still have to find a military backpack in game (which has the same # of slots btw). The crates have one item each in them and there is a random rarity, so you might get a common item or you might get a rare item (obviously less chance for the rare). Crates are not necessary for gameplay. You never have to buy one if you don’t want to.

I bought that edition for both X1 and PS4 to play with 2 sets of friends and didn't play with anyone on the PS4 and maybe 8 hours on X1. I no longer pre-order digital games.

[Chabbles]

If the person who took my user name is reading this, you son of a beach.

Error G99 here too.

 

[Skinpop]

So how will they monetize H1Z1 since it will be f2p? I'm a bit worried about that part.

lol. i stopped (ignoring this game) buying unless it's an LE or CE that offers physical stuff. other than that. i should just start buying and give it away ;P

 

[Human Resources]

during the splash screen, before I get the G99 error, I use my cursor to give the 2nd zombie from the left a nice party hat

so I can't say I haven't had any fun

Here is first in your face step. Every time you open your character to see the inventory look at the bottom left corner.
Account inventory with a buy more option for all but crates.

so essentially pay to win?

.. hope I won't regret buying this

 

[Shady859]

No not pay to win. Even if you buy airdrops it's not guaranteed you can even have them. The keys are for bonus extra stuff.

Well you knew what you were getting into buying a F2P game for early access. I not mad, I splurged for the $40.

 

[JambiBum]

The only thing they are monetizing are cosmetic items and tickets to get into event servers. You don't have to pay for anything (except EA if you bought it) if you don't want to. Tickets for event servers can be earned in game.

 

[helloresolven]

Crates contain skins, like CS:GO. If you want to open them, pay for a key.

Event tickets are gained just buy playing and you can completely skip this content.

The worst offender is the airdrop ticket, but if the user isn't guaranteed to even get the gear inside of it... I'm willing to see how that goes.

 

[Dog Problems]

Apparently this guy is the only one on the server: http://www.twitch.tv/aiekillu

Is he playing as a small child or something? Everything seems so tall, lol.

Edit: Ah, he's been crouching. Seemed to be moving too quickly to be crouched.

 

[Skinpop]

alright, guess i'll just have to wait and see how greedy SOE are.

 

[mercenar1e]

the graphics look like shit for a pc game.

 

[teokrazia]

Well, I've decided to start my stream anyway...

Why? They said on a stream there was no plans for ammo/weapons to be included.

 

[Zafir]

Yeah. Just turned on that french stream to see what it was like, and the graphics are kind of worse than I was expecting, the UI too.

We'll see though. I've already spent my money so too late to turn back now.

 

[Ferrio]

Wouldn't be a DayZ clone otherwise.

 

[Ravijn]

Yeah I expected a little more but I can wait and see if it gets better down the line.

 

[Chabbles]

Apparently the airdrops can have guns/ammo in them.

 

[Karak]

Logout doesn't bring you to the main menu to choose a new server or adjust options or anything. It exits the game. FYI. Or its a bug. Either way its unfun.

 

[BlackVenom]

Are you serious ? its early access.
They even said the character models are like 30% of the quality they like.

 

[MrxDemix]

I can't even login. I think the servers are fubar.

 

[helloresolven]

LaunchPad was unable to connect.

At least, the situation for me is evolving.

 

[MJLord]

It's my new years resolution to not engage people who come into early access threads and complain about quality like it's a finished product.

 

[Lord of Castamere]

So any PVE impressions? Most of my time will likely be spent there.

 

[JambiBum]

I was in and able to select a server and choose my name but then it kicked me out
