With so many choices around in the market for a fan of zombie genre games and movies, you can pick up anything you like. It feels so vivid, and for an MMO game, it's really impressive. It encourages you to use your guns less often, but you just can't help but use the guns. That's what is so addicting about the shooting. They fall on the ground like a sack of potatoes. You can feel the bullet piercing through the hearts and eyes when you shoot at your foes. No, you are not a Rambo, but you are better than those who don't have anything to defend themselves with. If you have got a gun, though, this game is going to be one hell of a ride. I hope that they tweak the mechanics, later on, to make it a bit easier on newbies like me who haven't had a lot of time in these types of games in the past. It makes you more vulnerable as you are pitted against zombies all the time. It's frustrating sometimes to have to fend off zombies without any sort of weapon. I was searching for hours one day but still couldn't find anything. You are lucky if you find any gun at all in your playthrough. Guns, weapons and ammo are pretty scarce here. So I am guessing that we'd have to be content with what we have right now. It's not going to be easy for them to revamp the whole game mechanics. But will they do it? I am not sure if they will do it. The engine itself looks pretty crispy, it's just that there is some work need to be done on polishing it up. It would have been great if they could have sharpened the colours that are a bit rough around the edges. Yes, I know this game is an MMO, and they are not supposed to look as good as their single-player counterparts, but I personally feel that they are a bit of short of the mark here in terms of graphics. Honestly speaking, I am really not impressed with graphics at all. Sometimes those you trust the most are likely to stab in the back. So keep an eye out for who are your ally and your enemies. You would not be able to make it to the other end as there are tons of zombies and hostile players waiting for you across the road. The world is so huge that it might take hours before you could go from one end of the map to the other. The team at Sony Online Entertainment has done a great job with making this game a narrative experience with the sense of an open world game experience. It's always tensed as you know that death can come from any direction. You'd never feel like you are playing an MMO. Nevertheless, it's still a great game with all the elements of a strong single-player campaign in it. Let's talk about gameplay elements.Īlthough I would have really liked to see them going with the single player element with this game, they chose to make an MMO instead. We certainly don't want to talk about the publisher here. Who knows what's going on under the wraps? Well, let's save it for some other day. That's probably the reason why they have released HIZ1 for PC as well. And we know that PC is the primary market for MMO games. I am just speculating as to what can be the reason to release their games on PC as well, especially when they don't release any of their single player games on PC? Well, as a matter of fact, everyone loves making more money. But what's with the PC obsession? I am not complaining here. None of their games has made it to Xbox consoles though, which is pretty obvious considering that they are in competition with those guys for over a decade now. But they release every game they make on PC as well as on Sony consoles. So why would they release a game on PC? It certainly sounds a bit ridiculous to me. Let's delve deep and talk a bit more about this game.īefore we talk a bit more about the nature of the game, you will have to keep in mind that this game is made by Sony Online Entertainment, a division owned the Sony, who also happens to be in the console business. They were lining up to try this game when the first playable demo was released from this game. Who doesn't want to have some more fun killing off zombies? It was only obvious that people would be really excited about it. It was kind of a shock but in a good sense. Nobody could have even imagined that they were making something as big as this game. It simply appeared one day as Sony Online Entertainment, the developer behind it, released it for PC and PS4 all of a sudden.
