I am sick to death of zombies...but this looks interesting:

I'll give it a look. Though I am quite fed up with Zombies, "Survival" and "Crafting".

Mix of FPS, minecraft, and zombies?

Certainly looks interesting but I am still not sure how I feel about "fast" zombies.

I am really looking forward to this - to the point that I have preordered to get the alpha.  If this is as good as it plans to be this could be the best game ever made.  Looking at some of the videos of people already playing, it looks fun already, despite the fact there is still a lot to add.  Usually kickstarter projects are so far away from delivering anything that I wait, but this just looks too good to miss!  I can't wait to set up my own fortress from which I can fight off the zombie hordes.  :D

"Nukiller attacks" oh my GOD is the word really so difficult to pronounce?!

Fast zombies are not zombies.  End of story.

Having said all that, the game looks like it's worth keeping an eye on.

Looks like Minecraft only with real graphics! ;D

The thing I like is the threat - in Minecraft you had to really go looking for danger once you had a house.  Here the threat is real, and just going indoors is not enough- they will break down doors / dig underground to get at you.  Whether they are zombies or not imho is not important - what is important is that they seem from the videos of the game that I have watched to be a genuine threat.

And real zombies creepers!


Don't worry, Huw, I bet there will be a mod or a control to make them walk reaaally slow all the time, so they'll be real zombies.  :P

So the Alpha 1 is out.

Anyone knows how to reload (R doesn't seem to work for me)?
And how to eat the food and drink the water?
And how to use the bedroll I crafted to sleep?

:P

I was shocked about fast zombies in DayZ.
But after watching World War Z.  I beginning to accept fast zombies.

BanzaiCat

Dawn of the Dead (2004) had fast zombies in it as well. I could buy into fast zombies in the first hour or so of their death, but bodies decay rapidly. I HATE seeing movies or TV shows when they move a body that's been laying there and it's all limp with no rigor mortis. (I was a paramedic for a few years, it makes me laugh to see that kind of nonsense.) Plus it's just a movie, so they can move fast...because they can?

I was never really into zombie movies except maybe Return of the Living Dead. "Send more cops!"

^Actually I believe the line was "Send more paramedics" (nom-nom-nom)...  :D
