The game has an interesting feel (More human like) Than the usual first person shooter.. Its as if your movement is weighted where as the usual first person shooter everything is instant and completely based on mouse speed settings.. Like instant 180 snaps.

The controls of this game are more complex for sure but once you get used to it it feels good. I love holding alt and looking over my shoulder while running. It's more realistic that I can look behind me while continuing in a certain direction.

Now I did notice when I manually set everything in video options to their highest.. 16x this and that.. There was a lag in motion that was not part of the game.. I tweaked a few down and it runs perfect now.

Have you tried on your new system Ron?

Oh no doubt the bigger cities are fun. Keeps you on your toes. Gotta go in the city to find the good sheet. We should play sometime and try to find each other quake. I get lonely talking to myself on the rooftops. :)

I would love to play w/someone. How on earth do we coordinate that.. Need a good meeting spot and then we can head that way in our own time.. Perhaps head towards a main city and hangout just north or west of it.. Your the pro let me know. haha

Played for 10 min and lost interest. Already deleted it from my computer.

My computer works perfectly fine for all of these games (Highest graphical settings on them as well)

http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197994408320/games?tab=all

I think it all boils down to taste in games.

It's cool if you like the game but it's not for everyone I happen to think the game itself sucks I like the idea of the mod but if it was in a large scale city (Which would not only take a toll on graphics but on people as well because of the increased close range of the zombies) then it might be less boring than walking from one place to another fighting 4-5 zombies on your way which inevitably wastes your ammo and gets you killed.

When its finished it should be pretty good. I agree a city would be even better.. I was running full visual quality no problem.. But all of the sudden there is a bug in directx (According to microsofts site) that is causing directx to incorrectly detect my video cards memory (1GB) and now thinks I have 370mb so I cant select high res anymore. haha damnit
