PS4 Days Gone

[bourbons]

Were these zombies really a threat? He was just jogging around with no sense of urgency. Never got any sense that these things could kill him.

Not sure what you mean, they swarmed over and killed the guy he was bounty hunting? Much greater sense of urgency than traditional shuffling zombies.

Graphically didn't seem that great for PS4 and the zombies appeared to have no intelligence and just ran around like a bunch of headless chickens. Looked pretty easy to shoot them too.

Guessing any real AI was turned off, probably other technical considerations too just to show a smooth demo. There was one stage on the roof where it looked like the lead zombie ran straight past him, almost clipped through him in fact.

I just don't get what the point was in taking on that hoard. He could clearly out run them and out manoeuvre them, why not just bolt back over the fence to your bike and **** off? Unless there was a specific item at the location just seems like a massive waste of ammo. In saying that, the amount of ammo that he had hardly makes it look like desperate times too.

Because video games? You could say similar things about certain situations in just about any other game.

Yeah true. Just not big on the entire "here's some gameplay that you'll never actually play" for the sake of advertising.

Yeah I know what you mean, but welcome to every E3 ever.

It is really done to death, state of decay, days gone, dying light, dead rising, dead island.... really hard to get excited for a new game of this type, Sony Bend did an amazing job of the uncharted vita game and you could see alot of naughty dog in that game play trailer which can be risky when you try to emulate a company like naughty dog too much. There's some elements there that could be decent, take way the zombies and add a stronger biker element to me would be more appealing.

They keep doing it because it sells, zombies are still popular. All those games you mentioned did very well and most of them have sequels on the way. Walking Dead still the biggest tv show in the world.

Trailer looked good, but the gameplay video left a lot to be desired for me.

Graphically didn't seem that great for PS4 and the zombies appeared to have no intelligence and just ran around like a bunch of headless chickens. Looked pretty easy to shoot them too. The graphics could probably be explained by the 720p because the trailer looked much better.

Like the idea of a sandbox survival game but not sold yet.

Really? I thought the game play trailer looked intense

Will be within 48 hours of the US/UK.

Game doesn't have a release date. Its at least 12-18 months away.

Having just completed State of Decay on my Xbox, i have to say i am so keen for this and S.O.D.2 to come out. Still a sucker for zombie games. Can't wait!

Game Informer are doing a month long reveal. They have a few gameplay videos on their YouTube channel as well as interviews and stuff on their site.

Hmm, not sure what to think from that video. Graphics look poor, game play a bit clunky.
Are the swarms gone? Maybe now just a rare occurrence in the story.

Reckon this could be a bit of a letdown.

I think I saw somewhere when I was looking for more stuff at lunch time today it was 2019?

This seems to be the general consensus from what I've seen around the net the last two days. Have to admit some ignorance here as I haven't been following it that closely after the initial announcement, but I assumed this would be the PS4's answer to State of Decay. However it's completely single player and looks like it's going to be more of an RPG? Nothing I've seen so far thrills me though but will keep an eye on it.

 

[pantskyle]

It's almost outdated in 2018, a 2019 release would be terrible.

According the watermark that is alpha footage so it's probably just using mipmaps or compressed textures.

I hope so.

When was this first announced? 2015? Looked awesome the first time I saw it, that video though doesn’t fill me with great confidence.

 

[Feraligatr]

I think I've moved past this game. Especially when The Last of Us 2 is set to come out next year as well.

It looks like it might be a bargain basement pickup for me when it goes down to 30 dollars lol

 

[Quivorir]

Im just shocked that zombies are still a thing.

State of Decay 2 , Overkills the Walking Dead, H1Z1, probs Day Z, all still to come out too. These guys are going to miss the boat big time

 

[palmomagpie]

H1ZI and Day Z have already missed the boat. Don't think anyone really gives two hoots about them anymore

Game Informer put that to the producer or lead or whatever he is straight off the bat. His reply was just something like “I like zombies”. Can’t argue with that I guess lol.

I don’t have any particular zombie itch but State of Decay 2 will scratch it.

Look goods to me even tho it's alpa stage.

Dead Rising meets The Last of Us imo
