So I finally got a chance to DL the trial and play a bit :shock: color me impressed with the seemingly wide open world and could see myself putting some serious time into this game and though I wanted to buy it right then and there, I knew I wouldn't get much of a chance to get back to it anytime soon so I'll likely buy it at some later date and preferably on sale or soemthin. :P

OK, my I'm at home for the summer and my brother has a cheap 4GB 360, I bought the game on his account and it was like 2GB LOL, but I began playing it and all I gotta say is the game is not easy! And it's scary! Here's why: There are zombies EVERYWHERE and you gotta be very careful when scouting the towns. If you go out alone and alert more than three zombies, then you're probably going to die. Here's a near death experience I had last night: I scouted the first town in the game on the water tower and saw the gun shop. It was night time which meant that it's not the time you wanna be outside your basecamp. I went into the shop, scouted it out, and then walked out the back door very slowly to not attract attention so I could get back to my truck. However, my truck parked in the street was surrounded by 20 ZOMBIES. I had no choice but to run, almost died in the process of getting in the truck, and once I began accellerating, there were three stuck onto the car! I drove by a light post to kill the one on the passenger door and he flew off LOL Although the game is a bit buggy and animations are kinda crappy, it's a very engaging game, and I think I'll try to play some more today if I can.

Sorry if mentioned already but a patch has been released to tweak some things and fix some bugs. It's nice to know the devs are on it, making the game better and better. Sadly I'm still playing the demo since I'm waiting to get my USB flash drive with profile so I could share the game when I buy it. I'm having more fun with SoD demo than TLoU demo. :P

Played the Demo. After 5 minutes of mashing the X button and pressing LB+Y to execute, it got boring.

That's awesome news. I know they want to make an MMO, but I'd rather see them make a full blown AAA sequel.

I played over an hour with the demo. After crossing the bridge I didn't go to the church, I just drove around exploring the towns, looting, trying out new weapons and clearing out infestations. Even after it said I had a minute left, just as long I didn't go to the church, I was able to roam around and continued to play. :D

[QUOTE="Jack-Burton"]Undead Labs' hugely ambitious open-world zombie survival game State of Decay is due this Wednesday, 5th June on XBLA. A PC version is also in the works, but no release date for that has been announced. When asked if Undead Labs had any estimate as to when it would come out, the developer responded "none." Oh well. State of Decay was initially called Class 3, a prelude to the Seattle-based studio's zombie MMO, Class 4. The idea was to test several of its diverse mechanics before setting up the MMO, which is still the plan. While State of Decay is Undead Labs' debut title, the studio was formed by World of Warcraft lead programmer Jeff Strain, who also co-founded Guild Wars developer ArenaNet. Game looks great for an XBLA game with some interesting ideas and concepts, this will be the best post apocalyptic Zombie survival game released this month. Reviews in 8.9 IGN 8.0 OXM

ign didnt give this a 9? lol its going to score like a 6.5 on gs..... seriously though, this looks interesting.

Remembered reading about this a while back. Kind of wrote it off at the time, but glad that it seems to have turned out well. Might check it out later.

Jeff Strain was the lead programmer of WoW.

He was replaced. 

That tells me that he might have underperformed at Blizzard.

I hate MS point system. I have 720 points so all I need is 900 but I would have to buy 1200 since the smallest amounts I could get is a 800 and 400.

Hmm... an open world RPG-like game that is doing some new things... OR a RE4 clone with more cutscenes... Hmm... HARD CHOICE! NOT. State of Decay deserves the higher score, it is the better game.

How epic would it be if Rockstar made a Zombie DLC for GTA 5? :o

But for right now State of Decay looks like the best Zombie game out now! :)

The tension does eventually level out a bit and it becomes a little more busyworky as you learn how things work and become more confident in what to do and how to do it. But it takes some time for that to start occuring, and there still is a lot of tension and uncertainty. Like, I'm constantly pausing the game to think about my next move.

I'm currently somewhat cozy in the Savini Residence, I think, haven't checked in since yesterday. Supposed to be a temporary residence out of necessity due to being unable to gather enough survivors to move to the warehosue straight away. Eventually moving there is meant to be the more permanent solution. Need five more people first. Next immediate move is probably to check out the court house. Apparently things go sour for those people if you keep ignoring that mission, although I've been doing that for hours and hours.

 

Don't forget to scroll down on your characters skill sheet every now and then. So easy to miss unlocking skills. Got two new categories on my Marcus, don't know how long I've been unintentionally ignoring those.

know whats strange, this little arcade game has been more ambitious and entertaining than most AAA games i've bought this gen. Its finally a Zombie game, where you actually feel like there is an element of danger and risk...especially at night time and has anyone been attacked by a horde on foot man thats brutal.

Firstly: You're doing the combat wrong.  you can sneak attack, there are execution variations, can push, body slam, smash heads together, power attacks, and guns.  Why are you limiting yourself to two attacks fool? 

 

Secondly: This game is about MUCH MORE than combat.
