You shouldn't really judge a game with one gameplay video.
I'm amazed at all of you guy's bitching over this. Yes, it is disappointing that it isn't what everybody hoped, full survival horror. But you don't have to use "improved" weapons either, it isn't a requirement. You can almost certainly delete the sound files in the game for the one liners if you don't like them, and you can probably mod the hud as well. The game is from a basically unknown developer who strived probably pretty hard to make this happen. I mean hell, who wouldn't want a first person (I mean really first person, you can even see your body and fall down to the ground), open world, zombie killing, mostly melee weapon weilding game? Once again, yes we (and myself) were disappointed at the slight turn of events in the game progress, but overall most of the complaints can be fixed within the mod community. Yes, expect the game to have fallout 3 like bugs, but that doesn't subtract from the story/gameplay, it may even add humor and replayability! I'm looking forward to it, can't wait for release.

That's good enough for me.
[QUOTE=69105;30193845]i'm disappointed because it looks like far cry 2 with zombies[/QUOTE] That sounds awesome.
[QUOTE=69105;30193845]i'm disappointed because it looks like far cry 2 with zombies[/QUOTE] No malaria though
And not -drive drive drive drive shoot some guys driving drive drive drive get to the place and shoot some guys, drive drive drive etc-. I still loved Far Cry 2 though.
Am I the only one who actually likes the game the way it is? I see barely anything wrong with it.
It's seems pretty decent, just the game was advertised differently at the very beginning than it is right now. Coop will be a blast :v:

I must have low standards when it becomes to games because I really like how it looks so far. Of course there are some things that I would like to see changed/fixed but I think it looks great so far imo. I'm surprised to see a lot of people making a big deal out of the HUD, I don't really see what's so bad about it.

Project zomboid has a HUD what are you talking about.
Yea but its more focused on actual survival than this. In Zomboid if you are not careful you can die from a scratch. And before all the idiots that are gonna complain about realism jump on that, yes, the game is very fun from what I've seen first hand.

[QUOTE=evilweazel;30207432]I think it would be boring as shit compared to being out there running around and getting shit done on the island, but to each their own I guess.[/QUOTE] Zomboid is like that and it's fun as hell. It being in first person and 3d would only increase the fun. It's like hunting games. Most people find them boring, but some like them.
[QUOTE=c0nk3r;30207339]"facepunch is just 4chan with bigger faggots" :smugdog:[/QUOTE] Well that's why us two are here.
Well, the first CGI trailer got me hyped for the 'dream zombie game' everyone's always wanted, and then when I saw the gameplay I was extremely disappointed. Thankfully, Project Zomboid is pretty much everything I was hoping this would be, so I don't care... plus, Dead Island does look like it's going to be a lot of fun, just not 'that zombie game'.

20 Minutes Extended Kill-Time gameplay [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJaXrlfxF2E[/url]
Mod support or GTFO.
Is the gameplay video recorded on an xbox360? Because I am planned to get it for the box but I worry about performance :v:

We got zombies, vehicles, rpg elements, 4 player co-op, so what if it's a bit buggy and it's not a depression simulator? I still think it will be a great game. I have yet to be disappointed by anything they've shown, I too have low expectations with a lot of games. I can see how a lot of people hyped this up to be a very dark and realistic zombie game from the trailers but I believe that was just an attention getter, albeit very misleading. It may not turn out to be a depressing and gritty zombie game but that doesn't mean it will be bad. I predict once this game is launched a lot of people around here are gonna be extremely disappointed with it and pointing out how buggy it is ( similar to Borderlands ) and yet my friends and I will be playing the hell out of it.
Fucking tricky eastern europeans. This is their version of pearl harbor.
Wait, what? Why are you mentioning Pearl Harbor?
