Re: Survival Games Event - 3
I doubt there will be much to see since 85% of the players were killed by zombies early in the game...
We beta tested this quite a lot and figured that the bots were not too challenging since you can run for 40 seconds while the "fastest" zombie can only run for 12 seconds. So outrunning the zombies is quite easy if you play it smart. However, having some zombies with a high damage hit might have made them too OP... even though lots of players actually died by zombies with medium damage hits as well.
I believe that players didn't adapt much to the zombies in terms of how they change the gameplay. You can get overrun easily if you're not careful so tactics must change in order to survive. We didn't want this to be as easy as DayZ where the zombies are of little concern to the players and serve mostly as intel about other player's locations.
Lets see what feedback we get.

Re: Survival Games Event - 3
I agree that tactics must change to consider the zombie threat, but I think the main problem here was simply that most of us had never encountered this threat before. I died because I tried to engage a zombie with the knife. I had read about some types of zombies only dying after a headshot, but for some reason I assumed this only applied to projectile weapons. It hit me once and put me at black-and white, and I had no patch in the ammo kit. Totally my own fault, but I cant help thinking the learning curve here was a bit too steep for a one-life event.

Not gonna happen for SGE... We have that planned if we ever develop PR-Z but only after we tested it extensively to make sure the randomness of the spawns are as good as they can be.Adalaxy wrote: What the chance at a Public coop zombie server for practice?
So that's not gonna happen until the winter perhaps.

so the chance is good but pending further development... well I hope you throw more events.
It will definitely increase buzz...

I'm gonna upload a best of video hopefully today or tomorrow. It's about 12 minutes long and it shows alot of zombie killing, almost dying, and some PvP action
As this is my first video at all and also my first time with Sony Vegas Pro, it took me quite a while to cut everything. I just need to add some titles and texts, then its ready for upload. I'll post it here

There you go.
It's too dark, youtube upbrightener is being applied, but it takes ages as it seems. If it's too dark for your taste, wait some hours.
I really hope you enjoy my vid, it took me some hours to get into Sony Vegas. The text stuff sucks, but who really cares. I think the music and the cuts are not that bad overall
Enjoy, really looking forward to the next SGE!
Greetings,
Utd| 3ti65

I think a custom map should be made in honor of PR and zombies coming together

Re: Survival Games Event - 3
Big Thanks to Onil for this awesome modmod and event!
Some players need to level up there game, so we can get some automatic weapons next time
The zombies are great! They add to the "fearfactor", of not having a weapon and get you walking around all the time.
Maybe delay there spawn of the zombies with a script, so that players get 1-2 min to find a weapon, and don't have bad luck, spawning 2 meters away from a zombie.
Can't wait for the next Event!
