I really liked playing, but the kits need to add more ammo (AKS 1 maximum charger even if you find more ammo), Add as M16 assault rifles, AKM, and civilian rifles (M4, AK74, G3 possesses only the army by so far should be rare to find)
I would like to targets for car, maybe 2 teams fighting for helicopter (Huey = Ammo and extraction).
One idea: Survivors vs Army (Army has the order to eliminate all survivors that are infected)
Sorry for my bad english..............................I hate mercenaries and bandits but survival is the goal.

More ammo means survivors can camp somewhere longer, which can mean zombies can't get to them (crane for example). Less ammo means they have to get back into the meat grinder, which makes playing a zombie a lot less boring and pointless.

What's the point of PR when we have arma? BF4 when we have COD, COD when we have CS, FIFA when we have PES...
I have more fun in this mod then in DayZ the PR player base makes this mod very enjoyable, and the fact you become a zombie creates a very different gameplay.

Again, couldn't have said it any better.
Last day of the Open Beta! Come give it a try.
From what I can see in this poll, from the 8 people who voted that they disliked playing, at least two of them posted why but hadn't even played it. The rest didn't bother to post why they disliked it and probably didn't try it either, else they would have something to say.
The zombies will be slightly improved for the next version, but the way I see it, it's difficult to have fun as zombie if you don't team up and PR is all about teamwork anyway. So play it right and you'll have fun.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
The PR:Z Open Beta Week is now Over.
We will be working on bug-fixing and some improvements before the next Open Beta. After that, we should release the first version of PR:Z and have the server running regularly twice per week. And re-organizing Survival Games Events every month or so.
After the first release, we will work on other maps and game-modes.
Keep an eye on our moddb page or our thread in the community modding section of the PR forum, for regular updates.
Cheers

I think it only takes away players from already a very small community than it attracts new people to the community. I think the effort could better be put in for example a CE3 zombie mod, PR2 or just BF2

R.
This is my personal opinion.
It's more than just your personal opinion. I share it too and I'm sure many others.

This thread is for the
opinions of the ones who actually played the minimod during the Open Beta! There was already another poll where you could whine about how this minimod doesn't fit into PR or us doing our own thing instead of helping the BF2

R team with their content. FYI, 3 of the PR:Z developers became R-CON after they worked on PR:Z.
Now get out of my lawn!

I do not like it, because the time difference

No you cannot setup a PRZ server in China.
And I did see some SAGA guys on our server, so at least a few tried it independently of the time difference.

If you want to play PRZ, then we have to overnight

I was at my buddies house when the beta was going on.
(I played it for like 2 hrs)
Got boring quickly.
It was a full server too.
And I have nothing against Onil, but it seems like he doesn't like anyone's opinion that doesn't like this mm; he only likes the positive opinions.

If he came across that way to you, I'm sure he didn't intend it that way. Doubtless he's a little bit frustrated (and rightly so). The idea that he doesn't like negative feedback is ridiculous. That's one of the reasons why he posted this thread. The problem is that he isn't getting it. He's getting negative reactions alright, but negative
feedback? The vast majority of people who express dislike for the minimod either haven't even played it, or hate things with zombies in general, or played it but can't be bothered to say anything specific about what annoyed them.
Now, with that in mind, what exactly made it seem boring to you? Were the zombies not enough of a challenge, was there too little PvP for your preferences, or what?

I felt like zombies should have been a little more of a threat. After some experience, you'll find the zombies easily avoidable and manageable. Any gun can handle zombies fairly easily so people start to shoot each other, just for the challenge. Maybe more player zombies / zombies that can outrun survivors / more zombie damage. Games tended to turn into team deathmatches. Getting the squad rallied up after getting wiped by other survivors is a little too time consuming.
I feel like playing the zombies is enjoyable, would like to see more player controlled zombies. Ammo quantity is nice, nice looking, cool guns, don't really have any more criticism apart from what is written. Rest is awesome!

Yep, that sums it up in a nutshell... OR perhaps I only snap at people who can't be bothered to read the information before posting or vote but don't post proper feedback. There are 11 posts for "Disliked Playing PRZ" and the majority are from people who haven't posted why, while quite a few are from people who didn't even played the minimod and obviously missed the word "Playing" in the vote option.
Look at Leo's comment, that's proper feedback! He explained what he disliked about the minimod and I thank him for it. We will try to do better Leo. It is however something hard to balance.
If others would follow his example, no matter if providing positive or negative feedback, then we would be getting what this Thread/Poll was created for.

Do you want me to write a 500 page novel on how I thought of PR:Z?
There are pro's and con's.
Pro's
1.It's cool that someone is devoting their time to make a mini mod for PR.
2.I like how the weapons are very limited on ammo. Really helps us Zombiez out.
3.People actually played it accordingly, I thought it would be just a hell-hound round. where the survivors were 'guaranteed' winners.
Con's.
1.Just gets boring. Why?
Walking around, constantly as a Zombie. For about 75-85% of the time I was playing as a zombie, (Yet it was a full server) I didn't see anyone at all. (No brightness is not an issue for me). At the end of the round. I finally was just raped by like 5-7 survivors. (Literally scared me....) Then I was a survivor the other round.
AS a survivor.... I found a nice pistol literally 10 minutes after start. I killed 3 Zombies after like 5 min I got the pistol. After like 20 minutes into the round, It got intense for me. But then, I got tked so someone could have my pistol. (Of course, I would be tked) Then I found a survivor, I followed him the rest of the round. ( can't remember his name, but he was funny as heck!). I was getting very bored quickly.
2.Lack of PvP action. I would not mind seeing more Zombies then survivors.
Like.... just more zombies then survivors. I don't know how much to explain it more.
3.Too much camping survivors.
When I was zombie and a survivor, I noticed that. There were survivors constantly on the Crane. The most I counted while I was a Zombie was 7. So it's impossible to get to them.
Overall: It's like a Guaranteed victory for the survivors.

The gamemode that was in the beta was not a team vs team event. There is no such thing as a winner-team in the gamemode that was played. Everyone is a survivor. If you fail as a survivor you get switched to zombies. That is why you always have some players in the zombie team, which is proof that the zombies indeed are able to kill players
For about 75-85% of the time I was playing as a zombie
That means you got killed by zombies alot and did not suceed in killing survivors as a zombie. If you do not kill them, you are allowed to switch back after 20 mins.
I found a nice pistol literally 10 minutes after start. I killed 3 Zombies after like 5 min I got the pistol. After like 20 minutes into the round, It got intense for me.
32 players and you did not see anyone and did not find weapons for such a long time? I highly doubt your numbers. Have you been to the city/outskirts/farms/radarstation/tents? If you only walk around in woods it will make you stay alive longer, but indeed, that is boring. Didn't you join a squad of survivors to stroll around?
You should watch some of the PR:Z footage on youtube to see how the thing is played properly.
