random question. that Ubi Game with the space freaks you think they turned it into zombie U ?

Killer Freaks, yeah. It turned into ZombiU.

 

[BY2K]

GOTY Contender?

 

[Medalion]

Very good preview, and puts my concerns at ease!

 

[brochiller]

- dying before successfully looting your previous character will result in the loss of that particular set of gear

That's the first I've heard of this. That really raises the the stakes when it comes to dying.

Also, I love that the easy mode is known as "chicken mode."

 

[BY2K]

- dying before successfully looting your previous character will result in the loss of that particular set of gear

Oh snap, didn't see that!

 

[shadyspace]

Not like there's an alternative on that. You'd eventually have tons of zombies with gear galore otherwise.

 

[brochiller]

Killer Freaks, yeah. It turned into ZombiU.

From the gamesradar video in case anybody missed it.

 

[abstract alien]

Nice lol

 

[BlankaBR]

This new gametrailers video look really good, the lightening is the best visual part of the game, cool

 

[jrDev]

Cassa sells it pretty well.
Sounds familiar to what Rich is saying about how the controls were "improved"

Don't want to sound rude but do you have reading comprehension problems? Did you just read only what you bolded and forgot the rest of the text? How does reading this and watching the ZU preview compare favorably?

 

[Despera]

Oh snap, didn't see that!

That's what you call positive influence.

GT also has a walkthrough of the game

Yup. That walkthrough was awesome. I have no doubt about the game now.

 

[BlankaBR]

Yup. That walkthrough was awesome. I have no doubt about the game now.

I was skeptical about the game but this video changed my mind...

 

[EvilMario]

GT video pretty much sold me, even though it was a bit lacking in the action department.

 

[snowdog1971]

I've decided not to read any more previews because I don't want to see any spoilers, but I thought I'd add this snippet of info that one of the mods on the Ubisoft forums was kind enough to find out for me:

THERE'S AN OPTION TO TURN OFF THE CROSSHAIRS!!!!! D

So you can basically turn this game into a true zombie apocalypse simulator!!!

Going to steer clear of this thread from now on but just thought I'd add that bit of news for those that may have missed it during the last ZombiU thread!

 

[BY2K]

Are we getting a OT for this one?

 

[abstract alien]

How do you aim without the reticle? Do you just use the irons?

 

[SteeloDMZ]

Are we getting a OT for this one?

For ZombiU? Hell yeah we are.

 

[EvilMario]

Are we getting a OT for this one?

Not taken in the 'claim your OT' thread, at least according to my search results.

 

[NateDrake]

How do you aim without the reticle? Do you just use the irons?

I thought I heard somewhere there was an option for reticule use.

 

[ezekial45]

How do you aim without the reticle? Do you just use the irons?

You can't. You have to aim first to fire the weapon. No firing from the hip. Pressing the fire button without aiming will do the push attack.

EDIT: Though I think I misunderstood your question.

 

[grimshawish]

I thought I heard somewhere there was an option for reticule use.

Remember someone saying this too.

 

[Medalion]

Are we getting a OT for this one?

Nah. But if it was Angry Birds? Hell yeah!

You can't. You have to aim first to fire the weapon. No firing from the hip. Pressing the fire button without aiming will do the push attack.

Ah, I would rather this as well then. Nice.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Are we getting a OT for this one?

so early?

 

[robertlebrone]

I don't know, I think because of your kids you should get this.

My daughter already knows you have to go for the head. She is going to be a zombie-killing badass if it ever happens, lol.

 

[BY2K]

I meant are we getting one like any other OT, one week before release.
