The Dead Linger

[ThePlague]

This is the game we've all been waiting for in terms of a fully open, multiplayer, shape your own apocolypse fps zombie shooter.

Right now they're just getting pledges and whatnot, but this thing looks like it seriously can be amazing. They are also accepting community weapons and everything after they get the pledge. They also said they will have an alpha ready in the middle of this year (a few months?) if they get their pledge accomplished.

If you have money to pledge, do so. This is the game we all want. No more of that shit sandbox, linear, 4 player co-op shit.

Meh. I already pledged my money to TakeDown which is likely to be a better shooting game than this. The Zombie genre is pretty much been worn out as well. If this is truly open world multiplayer with thousands of people playing, doesn't that mean it's an MMO where you need to pay for a subscription or have a microtransaction system?

[ThePlague]

No, not an MMO. The max playercount they have right now is only 16, but they said they'll bump it up more. I think what it's going to be is people have servers which you go on, that have a playercount of whatever, and they all just play together to survive in the world.

What does it have to do with zombies?

Nothing.

I literally watched the counter go from $180k to $200k in the span of one hour. It was beautiful.
