    Hey MM, Thanks again for the video. I am still a little saddened that knocked down zombies always start getting up right away. I feel that it takes away some of the jump scare that was built into the game, and was very natural for zombie films. Where the hero thinks they got everyone and turns...

    Awesome video MM...thanks for taking the time to show us. I am a little concerned about the mention that zombies on the ground that are not dead will continue to wiggle and move. It takes away the need for "double tap" ...the sudden surprise that a zed you thought you ended was not quite dead...

    I blame the trees for that. All those leaves and pine needls being so smug.

    Ha, yeah, yeah...I know I know...I went and spelled it different ways. I am aware of the proper spelling, I honestly can't explain why my muscle memory wants to say Hoards. But for me it IS called herds. My friends/family delineate between the 7th day hordes and the spawned wandering "herds"...

    I am in agreement on that. But I do feel like there should be a number of generics in the mix as well. Steady predictable threat that will usually be ignored by priority standards until you notice that they have surrounded you and/or cornered you. Think like pawns in a game of chess...highly...

    AMEN! to that! 5 and 6, I can confirm are hot loads of garbage. Sad part is I LIKE the actual system they have well enough. But the abandoned their player base and were trying to make CIV VI primarily and E-SPORT type game...which boggles the mind. Its like trying to make chess a full contact...

    Lol yes, I have been pulling for it for myself because, dammit, I want underwear slots and the ability to change underwear is the last slice of civilization we have to us in an apocalypse, think of it as being similar to being able to travel the width and breadth of the Galaxy, hitchhiking and...

    @faatal Can you (or anyone) tell me if we will be able to mod the game to include a couple of extra equipment slots at any point? Or will that be hard coded and absolutely unchangeable forevermore? :)

    Agreed, though I would say, lets not simply redefine the meaning of a word and call it a day. The words, even redefined are too rigid for this style I would think. It is in many ways chaos. They are working on this game from a QUALITATIVE state instead of a QUANTITAIVE state. The same reason I...

    I champion this thought! :)

    :) Thats cool. I understand what you are saying now so far as clear communication goes with the customer. That's all really marketing when it comes to conveying a state to the consumer. I can cede that part of this certainly. However, I would maintain my thought that, calling the stage alpha...

    I see that. Orderly, sensible...to a point. If they are replacing a decent system with one they find superior...and they can do it...why not do it? Just because it says Alpha we shouldn't do what is best for the game? (allegedly, its TFP prerogative to do what they feel is best) Just taking...

    Just my observation on this line of thought. It, in my opinion, doesn't matter what you call it or how you define it at all. There is no rigid "mode" you are in where you have to do it this way or that way. This is the way TFP are doing it. Not judging it as good or bad because it doesn't...
