You definitely have a variety of choices when it comes to Early Access zombie survival games.
I honestly give it a few weeks before the whole h1z1 craze dies down. It's a pay to win game that barley works just stick with DayZ.

That’s one way to do it.
@h1z1 @jimmywhis Running around and telling people that I trained my kids to murder them is fun.

Starving is never fun.
The map in #H1Z1 is way to small for the amount of people on the server so there is no loot. I keep dieing of hunger.

Well that definitely sounds like a survival game…
I should check on my homie on #H1Z1, he's currently starving in a makeshift base I made out of an abandoned trailer park.

Many are upset with the H1Z1 devs.
What not to do in marketing a game: Tell your audience one thing and then completely back out because money. Be transparent people. #H1Z1

And for others, the game has literally turned their world upside down.
