This is a FREE game so i can see why it isnt as good a l4d

[burnyourhonda]

@musterchef Yea. I do compare free games to commercial games because some people think tis a fair comparison. But I clearly point out that that isnt the case

[Torch178]

Does the original Half-life: Source count as a source engine game?

[burnyourhonda]

i do NOT believe so. Check steam for a complete list of games that will work.

I really don't want ZPS to turn into another L4D game. The game is hard but I don't think it is unbalanced at all. Just like survivors, zombies require a fair amount of teamwork in order to win. The survivor weapons are strong but there are only a limited amount of ammo and guns scattered around the map. This forces survivors to move around the map as groups to find weapons, while zombies can setup ambushes and traps. Teamwork is key to winning on both sides.

You compare this game to Left 4 Dead and say it's basically the same, even though Zombie Panic Source and Zombie Panic came before the idea of Left 4 Dead came to existence. I hate it when people get that wrong, (ZP) 19-- to 2001,(ZPS)2004, (L4D)2007? No.

The zombies just need to move faster and have better melee range.

(cont.) Then you need to run off to somewhere else. Several of the player made maps are made with different houses, and you can be let in by your friends there.

Inevitably, some humans will fail and get killed, and as such there become more zombies. As a zombie you need to break barricades, or perhaps sneak in through a window or whatever to get to the humans. There's a lot of fun starting as zombie and the go on a rampage. Both sides are fun to play, so you don't grudge becoming a zombie :)

[Jostedalsosten]

I have played this game way more hours than I ever played L4D. It's simply great fun. However, you need to play a survival map, where the humans win either if the zombies run our of reinforcements or the humans survive for x minutes. The missions are not as fun, not even close.

The fun is in barricading (if human), then keeping that barricade up. If the zombies play well, chances are that your barricade will break, or you will run out of ammo to fend them off (cont.)

@burnyourhonda DUDE The Game Is BASED Of Of Team Work of The zombies

[PCman54]

This game is shit.. boom boom and your dead.. and they always know where you are... fucking shit

[MMproductions68]

You have got to remember, they ahve tried to make this realistic, and thats how they kill the humans. In real life the only way zombies are gonna kill the survivors are they hording around. This game is also no possible way of being like left for dead, i agree with you on that, this mod was made way before left for dead.

[spellingerror2000]

@Torch178 Yeah, I think. As long as it says source.

[TheChristianskater]

lol this mod came out before l4d so l4d copied this if anything
