Another epic session last night. Whilst looting a prison we had a Zombie find its way in but at the same time another player. By the time I realised the player downstairs wasn't my mate he'd raised his automatic weapon and gunned me down. Whilst watching a black "You Died" screen I could still hear what was going on in the game. My mate had a working pistol so waited in a room. "I can hear him coming, oh ****, oh ****!" *gunfire*... "I think I've killed him!". And he had. He looted the body and legged it into the woods near Stary Sobor. The story continues...
This is the greatest online gaming experience I've ever had. Nothing else even comes remotely close. There is a lot of crap to put up with but the tension, despair and elation overcomes it all.
EDIT: For anyone considering trying this in its current state, here's some of the things you'll have to deal with:
Zombies walking through objects:
Currently zombies will just clip right through walls, houses, stairs etc. Running into a house and closing the door will not protect you
Climbing ladders or stairs (rare) can be lethal:
You might fall from a ladder for no reason at all
Lag:
When you try to eat some food, or equip your weapon, or drink some water the game might just not do what you ask of it and you'll have to try again.
Work it out yourself:
Like Demon's Souls but even worse. There's no tutorial. You won't know how to do anything and the UI is clunky as hell, especially inventory management (although that is improved over the mod version)
