It's one of the stupidest things about the store. So many months in and they still haven't started listing release dates. It's ridiculous .Where the fuck do I find release date information on the Epic Store? It's already the 16th here in Australia but I can't seem to find when the game is going to be released?
I feel like the game was being made to launch along side the film sequel to WWZ that fell into development hell and then got cancelled. Now it's all alone in a void with the IP.This looks pretty good.
For some reason though the World War Z license is bothering me more than anything. I know it's based on the movie and not the book, but everything about it seems antithetical to the tone of the film. It's sole relation seems to be the horde (and maybe the glboe-trotting scenarios).
The tone of the game just seems way off to the point where I wish it wasn't a licensed game at all and a brand new IP. It's a minor gripe in the wider conversation about the quality of the gane, but the gulf in tone between the film and the game (and immeasurably moreso between the book and the game) seems to be hindering my enthusiasm.
Only found out about this game yesterday and watching some videos is getting me hyped! When are the official reviews coming out ?
Hey folks. Usual deal from me, any Qs I can help with, let me know.
Sadly the answer is 'we'll announce soon' as we're in the middle of finalising everything (had a meeting about it 2 hours ago, in fact), but there will be stuff, some that you'd expect and some that will hopefully be a pleasant surprise.Any idea what the post release pipeline is like? Any maps or DLC planned?

Love things like thatDont forget: once you play as a character you unlock a short animated origin story on their character page. Check em out!
My sentiments exactly :(.
This is a solid L4D like.
Go PC if you can.
30fps seems like a damn shame
Coop is where its at versus is throwaway.
With added updates and content this can be even better
Why is 30fps a shame? 90% (if not more) of console games are 30fps and most people are not bothered by it at all
Because they dont know any better. Mouse and keyboard at 60 frames or more makes any game feel like a different beast compared to pad controlls at 30. Any games becomes more responsive and fun to play.
Yup I'm holding out too. Shame I really love Left 4 Dead/co-op experiences.
If you want single player hordes, Days Gone is for you. This is heaviliy inspired by L4D, yes. A game that hasn't seen a new game released in many many years, also never made it to PS3/4 (Only Xbox 360 / One only through BC) - so absolutely greatly appreciated.Oh, it's a Left 4 Dead clone rather than single player.
Never mind then.
They don't know any better? You must be out of the game for a while, aren't you? Plenty of console games even offer a high framerate mode (Nioh, Tomb Raider, God of War to name a select few and there are many more) or even run at 60fps and plenty of console gamers (including me) played on PC before. Some just don't care. I played Rise of the Tomb Raider on res mode because it just looked better to me and with The Last of Us 2 for example, I hope they prioritize graphics over framerate (as long as it's steady).
This looks pretty good.

Code went out yesterday/today (just no way to give a proper review experience pre-release) so it'll be scattered. Loads of content out there on Twitch and YouTube already, of course.
You need a precision input tool like a mouse in order to fully sense that high framerate. The mouse is a 1:1 tool. You feel even the slightest variation or framedrop. It feels different than a controller does at the same framerate.
Is there any persistent progression in this game? Or is it like L4D where you start back at 0 for every game?
Me and my friends are itching to play this on ps4 but unfortunately they are in region 3 (Asia) and it seems like the game is not available on region 3 psn store? Can you clarify whether this is a temporary thing or will region 3 psn will not have this game indefinitely? That would be a huge bummer for us :(
In terms of the flow of combat, is it similar to L4D? The footage seems to suggest objectives as you head towards a destination but are there safe houses or something similar?
Also, L4D was known for its director ability with the enemies and keeping players on their toes. Is this similar or are waves fairly predictable?
There's a persistent, class-based system where you're earning new upgrades, abilities, and starting weapons.
The flow is similar, but a little more fast paced, more zombies, and the special infected are more common in WWZ, from what I remember of my L4D days. There also isn't Tank or Witch moments where your strat has to change completely, but instead set-pieces that have a similar but more varied effect on the gameplay.
There aren't specific safe zones, but there are areas where you'll be setting up for an oncoming attack that have ammo, weapons to choose from, health packs, etc.
Amazon Canada doesn't have it, which is weird IMO. BB just updated its listing and it seems copies are available in store now, gotta have to check
None of my BB have it, even the flagship locationAmazon Canada doesn't have it, which is weird IMO. BB just updated its listing and it seems copies are available in store now, gotta have to check
If you've been playing at 60+FPS for many years on PC and go back to 30FPS or whatever it's really unpleasant and jarring for a few minutes.Well I'm glad I don"t play on PC then, I guess. Seems it also provides additional space bar inputs?
But like I said: I just don't care about this crap. I am having tons of fun with 30fps games and I'm not missing a mouse at all. I'm sorry you can only enjoy 60fps games with a mouse. You're missing out on a lot of good games.
It should be there in few hours.Me and my friends are itching to play this on ps4 but unfortunately they are in region 3 (Asia) and it seems like the game is not available on region 3 psn store?

Many people like the poster above will never push through those "few minutes" and will just quit straight out immediately. They don't let themselves get used to it and maintain a very high standard. If you keep playing the issue melts away and you don't really care in the end (unless the FPS gets really bad like into the 20s).
Just providing another POV here. I haven't really been following your convo.
Days GoneOh, it's a Left 4 Dead clone rather than single player.

Ya I dont get much chance to return to games after a review but we are all going back todayMe and my mates are having a blast with this so far. It's a little rough around the edges but it's very fun.
All this information got me. Darn, now I need this game. L4D 1+2 we're my favorite experiences. And even MORE zombies?! Yes please.
Also... Is the horde size reduce on consoles as opposed to PC?
Flawless OT title
Can you play with a friend online alongside AI bots?
Saw this on Twitter as I've had a little trouble getting into PS4 online games:
Got to Moscow chapter 1 but me and my friends have been disconnected and can't get back into the game.
The WWZ servers must be getting hammered.
