Well I am a huge fan of zombies, as I am sure just about everyone in this forum page probably is. But I am perlexed by one particular issue that doesn't make much sense to me:
Just about everyone who likes video games with any kind of horror of violence, likes being able to kill zombies and similar creatures of the like. There is a huge base of people who would love to see an MMO specifically devoted to the concept of things that go bump in the night, yet for some reason it has been almost entirely skipped over in the gaming industry to make a specific zombie MMO.
Sure there are games like Left for Dead, and plenty of games that include zombies as part of them like COD and their notorious Nazi Zombies, yet there isn't really anything that has a developemental RPG formula.
I am sure a lot of people would agree with me on this:
But it would be amazing the see a game that had similar combat mechanics to say a game like Metro 2033, coupled with a single persistent server, leveling, trading, factions, raids, crafting and everything else you can find in a complex MMORPG, based specifically around zombies or other horrific creatures. Something action focused as well as with a complex world, leveling a loot system to keep people interested.
With that said, the few examples of attempts at zombie based MMORPGs have pretty much been flops, either that some silly oversimplified browser based game.
So does anyone know of any projects similar to what I just stated, because I have yet to find anything.
