One of the test runs I made.
Started as a survivor, got killed and zombified.
Reincarnated as my zombie, luckily a Neophyte already.
Killed enough people to get promoted to Disciple.
Eating poor weaklings left and right.
Facing my first serious enemy : a National Guard.

| Hello, you look tasty in green. |
Like the good blood thirsty abomination that I am now I promptly rush him and we duke it out.
 |
| Stop poking me with that gun! |
I prevail and make a new friend in the process.
 |
| See private, it's not that bad being undead. |
I get cocky, don't wait for the night to get more tactical advantages and get what I deserve.
 |
| Sorry for your pal dudes, listen I ggrgrrlkggrlkgrg |
I choose my killer again as reincarnation and discover life as a Private.
 |
| Wait!? What? Who? When? |
I perform my duty and hang out with the squad.
 |
| Hey Sgt what are we doing here!?... Why don't you answer? |
Upgrade time!
 |
| Sgt, help! What is that screen!?... Why don't you answer? |
You can upgrade when playing a living NPC as you would as a civilian survivor.
If you happen to be a leader, your followers will upgrade too of course.
You can build yourself a nice high level biker gang for instance.
AI
The Civilian and Zombie AI also does get a couple of improvements. Some of the standard tactics might not work anymore. Or they might. But not really. You'll find out.
ROTTING BRAIN
Mine. I seem to keep missing letters and whole words in my posts recently.
End of post.
So when is Alpha 5 going to be released?
ReplyDeleteWill your biker gang buddies be hostile to other NPCs still? Or for that matter, will you?
ReplyDeleteGUERUGAREUGARUGMAERGUMARMU thought this was alpha 5 :( can we get a release date? Gonna read up on this.
ReplyDeletelol I freaked out for a minute when I saw "ALPHA 5" and it was just an info post. SO excited though.
ReplyDeleteRelease : Soon. It will have a couple of other cute stuff I didn't mention.
ReplyDelete@Anon
yes.
As usual, the changes and additions look awesome. I can't wait to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteI greatly approve. Waiting for update :D
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun, good job on these updates boss! I guess the paradox of perpetual RS limbo is when you shift+a and select spawn as your killer.
ReplyDelete@Lex, from a programming standpoint, all Shift+a is is a shortcut to the menu, not an official death. If it was an official death, you would see that RIP thing on your character.
ReplyDelete*** Alpha 5 out in a hour a so, hold on downloading 4.3... if you can wait ***
ReplyDeleteIs this new or is it just something old you forgot to remove or change?
Thanks greaat blog post
