A few hours after release and it have around 50K people on the leaderboards; Was hoping for 100k first week but it looks like it will pass that in the first 24 hours. Another million seller? Btw I think they are going the Minecraft way, how more popular game how more updates will be come with extra's.

I think the game being priced at 1600MSP is a turn off for some.

Game is awsome! It starts of slow and a bit difficult but once you start to get a hang of it, just wow. It starts getting really awsome from the moment you get at the church. And the driving and shooting ain't that bad.

I have mixed feeling on this game so far. Whilst it really is a steal at 1600 MS points considering the amount of content in the game, it failed to get me hooked in the hour or so that I played it (I got to the vets in town if anyone wants to know how far I made it). It also had a few glitches and many, rather horrendous slowdowns.

Does it get better later on? How much so? I'm not sure if I want to put down $20 for the title quite yet.


I put them and trust me, I was very disappointed at first. No char creation, bad FPS sometimes and a lot of glitches. However, it's been growing on me. I've been playing 3 hours non-stop and I can't put it down (I'm after the vets btw). I think that if you can look past it's problems, you can find here a pretty enjoyable game.

 

Oh, and it's full with content. Seriously. I can't count the times I've been going out my home for a quest, just to loot some strange place and coming back to leave everything in my place.

Well they have passed 80k in less than 12 hours.

Man, the game sounds and looks awesome. If it was on PC or PS3 right now, I'd buy it in a heartbeat! Love me some zombies. I guess i'll just have to patiently wait for the PC version to come out eventually :(

Between the screen tearing, decent gameplay, terrible UI, ugly graphics, unnecessary story it feels decent for me atm.
Definitely has some cool concepts but it feels like an unfinished product as of now and for a 20$ price that's a big no-no. Otherwise definitely a solid effort, would have been awesome if it had some online multiplayer.

Those two points...I don't agree!

Just felt that it didn't need a story, just throw me in a world and time for some wild fun. But Im about to edit my post, game is starting to get better. Just that fucking screen tear maaan! Its bugging me, but there is definitely fun to be had. Would have been even better if they added multiplayer.

I heard they're working on a patch to put co-op! One can just hope.

And about the story, it's just there to provide background. It's actually pretty good once you advance long enough, but hey. The game needed some motor to keep the character moving.

Yeah I'm not very far a long, this seems like one of those games that the more time you put into it the better it gets. I was a little quick to judge, definitely a good deal of effort was put into the game.
