Early Access Review
For people thinking this as a replacement for DayZ (PLEASE READ WHOLE REVIEW)

-The game takes a lone time to load. Not so long I can go and maybe eat something, but long enough that I can get through a youtube video or two.
-It takes FOREVER to join a server, and I know thats not my internet, because I switched providers recently and it didnt change.
-Sometimes, after waiting ten minutes to join a game, it just kicks me back to the main menu.
-When im playing, sometimes, the game will just randomly freeze as if its crashed, but ti hasnt. It will sit there, sound playing normally and such, and then come back to life (My guess is its loading something? However. the above problems mentioned might be my fault, as I cant find anyone else having them online in my searches)
-The "zombies" or creatures that you put in never move. They often just spawn inside of each other and sit there.

But, I will say this...
When the game does function, its fun. Not everyone is out to kill you like DayZ, and the weapons have very good models and sound. The lack of reload animations I actually like, even if it is just a placeholder, have to drag my magazines in and out feels nice. The combat is fast paced and satisfying unlike DayZ, and ammo isnt too hard to find aswell as guns. The atmosphere and graphics and alot better than DayZ AND is much more optimized than DayZ.

If you want some constructive criticism:
-Dont switch to third person, stay first person, for the love of god STAY first person/third person
-Reduce jump height. Its very annoying how some players bunnyhop around when in gunfights (Which is, in my opinion, the only flaw in combat)
-Add more variety of weapons (I assumed this was a given, or is already being implemented
-Refine the ingame UI a little bit. It looks a bit cheap and quickly designed, but it does work. Just needs a bit of tuning.

My Specs:
CPU: AMD-FX 6-Core Vishera processor clocked at 3.5ghz
GPU: ASUS ATI-R9270 2GB VRAM with 1100Mhz clock speed
RAM: 8GB
HDD: 2x Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD

In conclusion, do I recomend this as an alternative to DayZ? Yes. Frequent updates, lower price, less bug/glitches, better combat and more stable mechanics, aswell as better graphics and better optimization, I would say so.
