wat is lyf
 
Uh, Patrick isn't doing a great job selling ZombiU.


Oh and is it true that if you lose connection while updating your system will brick? My wifi goes out occasionally due to my closeness to an air force base and I'd be pissed if the system bricked on me due to that bullshit.

That sounds like shitty software design, so its really up in the air coz Nintendo.
 
A failed internet connection can brick the system during a firmware update and they want people to do this for 90 min over wifi?

Are you fucking serious? Like if wifi went down momentarily even?

Not from what I've read. I've read if you lose connection it just starts back up at the place you were at before when it reconnects. It's when people started unplugging their consoles when it actually updates that they bricked.
Ok I can live with this.

I hope that's the case. Because something like that is sometimes completely out of the consumer's hands. That would be dreadful.

I remember someone saying last night that if your connection drops, the update will resume from the same spot.

Don't know if this has been substantiated since then.
 
real talk: only one melee weapon in ZombiU is a huge fucking missed opportunity.

I was expecting at least something like Condemned, with a good handful of weapons with different stats etc.

Did any of the reviews explicitly state this?
 
yeah sounds like the 4.5 review was right, and I don't know about having to be precise with the melee when everyone else said its simple and repetitive

Yeah, it doesn't sound good at all. That's fine because there are legitimately good zombie games out there to play.

Sorry I was just by what they said they had heard. The download and install procedures should be separate and losing the internet connection should definitely not brick a system. I was just shocked when they mentioned that.
