I have been waiting for an open world multiplayer game!! And the Post-Apocalyptic setting is an awesome idea. Keep up the good work I'll definitely be excited to see future progress on this!
Love the gameplay demo! Just out of curiosity will you guys be doing beta testing or anything of that nature. I checked I didn't see anything on thread yet about it but I might have just missed it. It would be amazing if you guys did though! Love to try this bad boy out!
hi We have a number of testers who have been very good to us in promoting and testing our previous games. We are going to extend the invitation to them first. However, there are some combination of devices and operating system that we still might need testing on and may ask for some additional testers. At the moment, I am not certain. Thanks for the comments.
Alright awesome! If you do end needing more people I'd definitely love to help. Keep up the great work!
Sadly, yes. We didn't stray from the zombie survival formula on this one. Zombie AI, where they patrol and mindlessly charge is the easiest to make. That's likely why there are so many zombie games out there. However, because of the size and scope of our game, its still quite time consuming to ensure each area is properly set up for the AI. We also have computer controlled human survivor AI. We felt this was a nice complement for those who just want to play single player. We are still balancing the AI for multiplayer. As we hope the best antagonist for multiplayer will be other players themselves. As it will always be more challenging and entertaining to compete and outwit live human players then bots. Thanks for you excitement!!!
U can't go wrong with zombies. Looking forward to this game. Will this game be updated for the iphone 6 coz I'm thinking of upgrading
Yes. We don't plan to release this until after the iPhone 6 comes out. Once, we have our hands on an iPhone 6, we will be sure to take advantage of the higher specs for a better gaming experience. Hopefully We'll see what other cool graphical settings we can add for the new iPhone when it comes out.
How will the multiplayer be set up? Will it be like coop style? Or will other humans be able to be your friend or enemy? It would be really cool to have a friend/squad system, so you could have a group of buddies who always work/play together, and can fight against or sabotage other crews. Honestly there are so many zombie games these days, but so many of them are boring as hell to me. If a zombie game is done right, and has multiplayer, I absolutely love them, but these days the zombie games for IOS have been single player, linear, and lacking any sort of team mates. My favorite part of good zombie games has always been the concept of a crew of survivors working together to survive, and that's why multiplayer has always been a make or break attribute to Z games (at least IMO).
Oh nice so I'm guessing a October release or maybe November?? Either way I'll def pick this game up. Btw what's the framerate ?
"Power is nothing without Control" Will you guys be supporting MFi Game Controllers? I mention this because this kind of FPS/ Open world style of games play exceptional with game controllers. see "GTA San Andreas" iOS as an example. Thanks.
Localization? Your game looks AWESOME and i would just like to know if you will make this an IOS exclusive or will you port this to other platforms (Android, Steam, etc.) I would really like to play your game, but i have an Android device as of now.
