Its still in its pre-alpha stage. List of the features I know of so far;
- Crysis 2 style weapon upgrade system
- Special deadly "stem cell zombies" that appear at night and can be harvested for a cure to infection.
- Experience/Skill system that enhances medical, fitness and survival skills
- Hunger and thirst system like DayZ
- Honor system that defines you as a bandit or a lawman.
- Bounty system that has lawmen hunt bandits.
- Quest system that has players give quests to other players to gain gold and honor.
- Market system.
- When you die you lose all of your equipment and you're booted out of the game for three days. You keep experience.
- Ability to have your own little safe haven world where you store equipment.
- Ability to rent your own private server.
Theres some I've missed I'm sure and keep in mind this is just at pre-alpha stage.
Now, I am definitely going to buy this game when it comes out. Thats a given. What I'm grappling with is renting my own bandit free AF exclusive server. I haven't decided on that yet.
My decision would be based on:
a) How many people on this forum would be interested in participating.
b) How much it would cost.
Now if its expensive I'll probably need a pound a month (or 1.6248 US dollars) from each person who signs up for the server. Not particularly sure how I'd arrange that but whatever, I wouldn't do that unless I had to. I'd rather have everyone join for free.
Now, is anyone remotely interested? If so let me know because I need to judge how big a server I'd need to rent.
So far they're offering a minimum population of 70 and a maximum population of 150.
Seriously? I think it would be fucking awesome to have every person on this forum hunting zombies together. What can I say?
I'm sentimental.
... seriously? Nothing? This is a new realistic zombie mmo, thats never been done before.
This is practically the next Minecraft. Not a flicker of interest?
