Day-z is such a fukking clunky game, I actually like that it runs on the source engine, I haven't used a gun yet but I assume the shooting mechanics will be nice. it feels like any other source type game, I like the crafting aspect, the game is a lot more forgiving survival wise and it's easier to find resources. I haven't figured out the proper way to really play right now, I had a fukk-ton of resources and loot and I just got killed by some douche bag from brazil screaming on his mic while shooting at me and another noob with an mp4.. I think I need to find the quickest way to get a gun just to be able to protect my resources. I can't stress enough how much I hate the controls/engine of Day-z, the movement is especially annoying to me in Day-z. You kill animals to get food/cloth, use a hatchet to mine minerals, hatchet trees to get wood.. then craft stuff... there's campfires, structures, medicine, weapons, armor and clothes and stuff... i heard they're adding in a helicopter
