What do you mean disaster?

The game is awesome very polished, look forward to more perks being added.

Agreed, that and the Explosives, i enjoyed that one.

Apparently they have a separate class for pistols now too which sounds good.

Really enjoying this game though. Game runs fantastically, hit no major bugs yet really. Love the ability to dismember zeds in so many different ways plus the way they run at you now in later rounds.

I think some people are experiencing a bad shower of dicks however they are a vocal minority.

Regarding the 20k online those will mainly be the diehard fans, most will hold off till a friend or two convince them it's worth splashing the cash or wait to play till the first few patches are out.

One of the issues that are having is

There are not enough dedicated servers for the amount of players attempting to join multiplayer games. We are working to have more put up (and you can host your own - see the link below).


DO NOT USE THE DEDICATED SERVER TOOL in your steam library. Set up a proper dedicated server: http://wiki.tripwireinteractive.com/ind ... Floor_2%29

I've handed over my dosh. Will we be able to play online with each other in public servers? I'll probably be on Mumble from about 9 tonight in case anyone wants to play.

Watched a 2hour stream of this a couple of weeks ago from Eurogamer dude Ian Higton. Looks pretty enough but the zombies are all in the nip which is odd. It also falls into the trap of ripping off Left4Dead uber Zombie types, Bloaty zombie that spits acid? check. Shrieking zombie that attracts others? check. Tank Zombie that takes ages to put down? check.

Its not the first game to do this of course but its a little more blatant seeing as this almost looks likes its a mod of L4D. 6 player co-op though does look interesting, I just dont like the actual style of the game, its gorgeous looking but having skeleton zombies and skinned zombies makes it more of a Doom type game rather than an actual apocolypse like L4D feels like. The death metal is atrocious but I do hate such music.

I thought the shitty music (and I like metal) was an integral part of the experience.

As Brer said, this is way different to L4D - the money system is absolutely integral, making it play a bit like Counterstrike in some respects - knowing what to buy and when.

Plus they're not zombies - they're clones made by an evil corporation, hence why all the grafted-on gooseberry fool on the fleshpound, husk, siren and the like. Which also explains how when they're butt-naked they don't have dicks flopping about all over the place.

Turn the music off and instead be soothed by the dulcet tones of captain Kim slowly losing his mind. If I can run a server on the same steam account as I want to play it on then I'll give it a go.

I think this is a game you have to play with some mates to have it click. Watching videos and playing solo won't sell you on it.

I understand that the music suits the mood of the game, its just not my cup of tea, id be as turned off it was dubstep. :dread:

The weapons and effects are lush, I just found the setting (in stream I seen) at odds with the crazy Doom like mental zombies. Running about the streets of Paris and its underground railway looked stunning and the actual gameplay looks ace. I just tend to want a smidgeon of a story to keep my mind from telling itself that this is a beautiful horde game.

I like the traps and that you can lock doors aswell, again I seen only 2hours it probably gets deeper and more integral how everyone uses the traps and things to get through the next horde. Again the weapons are fantastic, the sound effects are off the charts and the gibs that fly with a double shotgun to a z's face is very satisfying, for a kickstarter its one of the most complete games I've seen.

Would this be a Xbox Store purchase when it comes to X1 (developers more or less said it is at some stage) or is it a full price game?

Photek, it's cut price on PC so probably a download game. It'll probably be dead online after a month though.

Rog and other PCS folk, I'm sorry about the lack of a server, but there's no support for Linux in the beta version.

We should migrate GRcade to Flarum. :toot:

Unfortunately this is probably the case - the cod zombies crowd will stick to that, and i can't imagine trying to play a co-op shooter with people without mics etc would get very far. With no singleplayer or competitive multiplayer i don't think it'll last long on consoles.

There are plenty of public servers available.

Really enjoying this.

Although a fair few have complained the boss on normal is too hard i have found simply its because everyone is on level 0 once i was level 2/3 playing with other level 2/3s we pretty much kill him every time.

Looking forward to seeing the other bosses.

Shaming about the lack of server support but apparently they will add it during EA.

Also the zeds are far more agile i got what looks like a kick in the face by an invisi bitch

This is incredible! Neph, Trelliz, Shin, Kil and I played for a few hours this evening without a problem. Prior to the five of us playing, Neph and I had trouble getting onto a server but I found an empty one which we joined without an issue. We managed to stay there all night, even after the others joined.

We seem to have the hang of normal mode, right until we get to the boss, and right now Neph is finding out that hard mode is actually quite hard. I wouldn't mind giving hard mode a go to see if it's a bit easier with PCS communication instead of relying on random players. That being said, we had some helpful randoms when the five of us were playing and even when we were down to four.

I'd definitely recommend this to anyone looking for some co-op shooting action.
