Shit I was watching videos of this the other day and it looks super fun. Is it a giant server or what? How does the multiplayer work? That would be super interesting to run into random players who try to kill you and shit.

haven't played it yet, but its all downloaded and ready to go, i just have to finish up some school stuff. i think they have persistent servers with 80 people on them and you can spawn with your character on any server.

That's awesome. I wonder if you can loot other players for survival supplies after you kill them. That would turn it into some walking dead type group rivalry shit.

i've been seeing this around the last week or so and it looks sweet. It may be the only zombie game to get the genre right. Forget dead island and the like, this game knows what its about. survival. just survive with whatever limited resources you can find in the big bad world. it makes me wonder why it took so long for someone to get it right when zombie films have been doing exactly what this game gives us for decades.

this is seriously amazing. i think the longest i've lasted was a couple of hours. some tense moments in this shit for sure. i ran into another dude in the forest, we looked at each other for a second and kept running in opposite directions. another time some asshole pops out of a building and just shot me in the face.

Does it cost money or can you just download the alpha test from the site and play?
