Yep, the developer of War Z and Infestation broke off from the publisher and they're making this with the help of George Romero's son. It's... interesting, to say the least.
@MikeB did a walkthrough with them and we'll let you know what we thought next week.

Wow, yet another Ass-pocolypse. I say that because yet again someone says zombie survival game and has douche bags killing other douche bags with almost no zombies. Lets have a massive gun fight and no zombies show up at all. Lets wander threw a city and find a few zombies easily dispatched with guns that doesn't draw more zombies. Lets pump out a shitty game with shitty graphics and evoke some idea of something to try and make game with our bait and switch con game. I feel like these people are polluting the gene pool when they are allowed to create such trash and not immediately fired.
Tried it twice,froze my computer badly both times ../sigh.
I know i know ,quit yelling at me...it's alpha beta early access whatever,yes i have heard that a million times before.
The second try i got enough game time in to get a real good feel for the game,it has Indie cheap written all over it.Reminds exactly of H1z1 not sure if there is even more than one map in this game either.I could see just like H1Z1 soem fun or intrigue/discovery for abotu a week then file it under freeware.
UNLESS this team actually puts some continuing content into the game and adds a lot more assets ,unlike H1Z1 that put out a very slack effort after releasing it.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

It would be nice if you could get some information on what exactly Cameron Romeros contribution to this game is. At this point it looks like the exact same game as War-Z with a little touch-up of the artwork and a new map. I personally feel Cameron is just there to cash in on his fathers name as he has no game development experience and doesnt even work at the studio.

gave it yet a third try,luckily no crashes.I think i made sure to have my antivirus turned off.
It really lacks anything and everything.
I wanted to see the crafting and it is just bad.You need recipes,even if you have the mats you can't craft without the recipe.Recipes are very rare to find.
It is because the recipes are so rare that the storage space is also not enough.By time you actually find a recipe,there is a good chance you won't have the mats.There is no system to sell any crafts or items basically a single player game pretending to be a mmo.I assume the ONLY reason to group is for pvp purposes.
Tier 3 is the baggage/backpack of choice and just storing the reduced mats leaves you with literally no space.
loot boxes are a lol joke.You have to first find one then you have to buy a cash shop key to open it lol.
Now obviously have not opened one but it is a crap shoot on the contents.I will assume judging by the possible loot that you will get some good loot via that cash shop key purchase.Oh did i mention no space for storing anything,so good luck with that loot box.Since i have not seen hide nor hare of any larger backpacks they are likely sold in the cash shop loot boxes.
That cash shop key is actually a nicely designed scam because unlike most cash shops where you can choose your purchase,this one lures people into buying lots of keys in hopes of getting what they want.
This game is a HUGE rush job because there are so few assets designed for the game.You get the few basic small towns then the outposts use the same assets,a trailer or tent or both.imo this should not be selling anything because it is not good enough to warrant any money spent on it.

I'm not one to be negative usually but......yeah....it's pretty bad. If plays like how it looks, I"ll just keep playing 7 Days to Die.
Yes, I have to agree that you won't find anything better than 7DTD for a Zombie Survival Game, but Ark: Survival Evolved is of course THEE King of Survival games.
Amen brother.
I would tell everyone to avoid giving these guys money. They remind me of Darkfall with the name changing and remaking to resell the game to more people who don't realize they've been unsuccessful with the game twice already.

I longed for her beauty
Yet from dust, she returned
The dream, an enigma.... silent
