Yeah, that looks pretty cool. But as I don't own a console, I've never really been able to appreciate Resident Evil fully.
Moving away from my original post, an actual Left 4 Dead/Left 4 Dead 2 expansion that swaps the survivors for a spec ops team during the pandemic would be awesome. You'd...
I never said "realistic military". The scenario I described is well within the limitations that can be expected in any military-oriented shooter, and a L4D type adversary. A small, and arguabley, ill-prepared force would probably be overrun by an overwhelming number of zombies. I also...
This is true. But come on, we're talking about zombies. And there's nothing wrong with putting realistic people into unrealistic and circumstances.
At some point, realism has to be suspended for the sake of the premise. No game is truly realistic, merely they contain aspects of realism. In...
I've thought a lot about this idea ever since L4D first came out. I don't think it would be boring, if done right. Yes, individually, a single zombie is no match for anyone with any kind of weapon, let alone a trained soldier. But lets not forget the specifics here.
Thousands of fast zombies...
I'm looking for a game that pits large hordes of fast zombies against a fully-fledged modern fighting force. I'm not talking a Spec Ops squad all alone in a dark, infested city. More like an infantry platoon with armor support, in broad daylight even. Special boss zombies would be good too...
OMG... I cannot believe this thread is still going.
stuperhunt: I HIGHLY doubt that Anthony Hopkins would be interested.
And I still say Adam Baldwin as Francis for sure.
Obviously its the cab driver's fault for being a Muslim in a Christian Nation.
And the assailant was drunk, so that makes it okay. Because he saw the face of Jesus in his beer foam.
I'm optimistic that they'll survive. They were in a shelter, plus they have outside communication and therefor contact with rescue workers and loved ones, fresh supplies, water, food, medical aid, etc and they're not alone. Right now they're probably about the same as WW2 Submariners. They are...
I know. Its not my cup of tea. It does look interesting, but its something I'd rather watch than play, if only because it sounds like a reality tv show.
I personally have nothing against turn-based games; played my fair share.
Its just I can see all the personal and inter-group politics and resource management easily dominating the game if the devs aren't careful. I don't see much appeal in that kind of task for long.
Freedom and open-ended...
I agree... this looks kinda boring... interesting, challenging, and possibly rewarding, but not necessarily "fun".
At a certain point the social and political aspect combined with trying to survive in an apocalyptic wasteland just sounds like a huge pain in the ass.
Sounds like a good idea...
