What would you consider the greatest zombie video game ever made?

Do you crave creative and fun action over realistic and challenging game play?

Probably what you posted, OP
Project Zomboid was surprisingly amazing
>>
> All this mainstream crap with no depth.
> No CDDA.

I think Zombies alone as a setting are fucking dull as shit and boring.

If you've got Zombies where are the Werewolves, Vampires, Ancient Lich kings, and Unicorns and shit?

Fuck, Zombies alone is the most boring shit imaginable.

>implying Cataclysm is obscure

>no DayZ
but yeah, I think project zomboid is the most complete experience

It's also full of gay shit.
>>
>>319782126
Zomboid is probably the closest to a good, proper, zombie game with emphasis on survival being more than running around bashing skulls in.
Can't wait for NPCs and shit. If they actually get somewhere with this game it'll be really fucking enjoyable.
Wasn't the PZ guy the one that lost a laptop with basically the entirety of his work on it? That scares me.
>>
State of Decay.
>>
>>319783216
yeah, but it was like 4 years ago
>>
>Wouldn't shill out for ARMA2
>Never got to play DayZ
I hear I missed a bullet.

Anyway it's not project zomboid

Shit was pretty good though, I was genuinly surprised. Once they get the npc survivors in game it'll really take off. Honestly it's the biggest thing holding it back right now. That and the whacky menus, but I can live with those.
>>
>>319783390
Yeah, NPCs are what the game really needs
>>
>>319782126
I don't know if I'd call PZ the greatest but it's pretty good. State of Decay was okay too.

Rogue Survivor isn't the best but it's always going to be one of the top zombie games ever released.
>>
>>319782126
Reminds me of my bus stops in Cities: Skylines.
>>
Dead Rising is the best zombie themed game. It may not do zombies the best, but it is the best game where they are the main enemy.
>>
>>319784040
I love how it starts out just as everything starts going to shit.
I really need to play this again.
>>
>>319784281
You can also put traffic cones on the zombies head while being naked with a chainsaw, so it's the most fun
>>
I hope once PZ gets NPCs you have an option of starting out just as the infection is beginning.
Like most people are NPCs and there are only a few zombies and over a few days everyone but a few gets infected
>>
>>319784373
See what they've done on their forums; I know they had a few graphics overhauls but they may have come up with new enemies or something.
>>
Dying Light is undeniably the greatest zombie game ever created, don't group it with the filth that is Dead Island

Embarrassing.

Dead Rising is the only true answer

Nobody treats zombies as a paranormal creature anymore, they're just infected people. Zombies are closer to sci-fi now.

literally "no fun allowed"
I'll never forgive the retards that bitched about that, because god forbid we do anything but grind meaninglessly and instead actually have fun

We have to wait for them to port Chapter 1 to a new version of Source and release it on Steam first.

I'm pretty sure it's modded but actual hordes in the game are ridiculous, stay away from the dense urban zones.

I'd say this is more akin to an in-game horde but even one zombie will fuck up everything.

There was a really short period where Day Z was actually fun. Then the community went to shit and it became a shoot on sight death match game that was more shooting beaners on the beach than a zombie game.
>>
Zomboid should not be permadeath or at least have an option to turn it off

>having to back up save files every 30 minutes because the devs are stubborn cunts
>>
Cataclysm DDA if it had an actual objective. Like you have to spend the beginning of the game doing the normal DDA stuff like training your character, finding good equipment, building shit, but once you're strong enough you have to enter some kind of temple that's appeared through a dimensional distortion or some shit, and then get through the traps and horrors that await you to find a way back in time to stop the apocalypse. Something like that. I just want Labs, Strange temples, and spooky mines to be more fleshed out in that game. It's fun as all fuck, and more detailed than any zombie survival game out there, but the lack of a true objective kind of makes it lose its luster.

Wow what an original fucking reply. Maybe it's not about being a good or bad player, but about the fact that your entire playthrough which you put many hours into can and will be instantly wiped by random bullshit that you have no control over.
>>
>>319792472
Yeah, that's kind of the point

Hows the Coop in Project Zomboid? I'm going to guess basic. I sort of stopped following the game's dev after their shit got stolen; assumed they gave up and released what they had as their product.

Is a full game now?
But most importantly, hows the coop, cause i'm real interested in trying it with some mates if its competent and not a tack-on.
>>
>>319792852
yeah the co-op is really good and it plays like single player does but with friends, the only bad thing is that you can't sleep so you can't skip night time.
>>
>>319792472
thats just the niche that the game is going for and thats why it has a cult following, not every game has to pander to you specifically you assblasted nerd
>>
>>319792852
It's singleplayer without sleeping and other dumbasses that set shit on fire if you're not watching them closely.
>>
It's not really been made for me. Still waiting for an aaa open world game like a Bethesda game (but good), that realistic, has decent survival mechanics and a story. And slow zombies, fuck fast ones.
>>
>>319793489
I assure you that is never going to happen. That would require innovation, and AAA games are completely devoid of that. I don't know why people play AAA games at all.

This sounds pretty good.
Last i remember playing you had to manage food and fatigue. If that is the case, how does no-sleep impact this?
Also is everyone locked to one screen or free to roam?
>>
>>319794370
>Last i remember playing you had to manage food and fatigue. If that is the case, how does no-sleep impact this?
It's all the same except there's no tiredness in multiplayer, there is still muscle fatigue though but it goes away after a little while

>Also is everyone locked to one screen or free to roam?
Free roam, but the other bad thing is that spawns seem to be random, so if none of you know the map you will likely never find your friends.

>>319794370
I think you need to consume the same amount of food over the course of the night like if you woke up hungry and thirsty, but I'm not entirely sure.

There's no tiredness in multiplayer so that's just a nice bonus.

Be prepared though, the amount of food and weapons consumed by a group is fucking crazy compared to a single person. You might want to turn on re spawn loot depending on the # of friends.

>>319782126

Zombie Driver is/was pretty fun.
