Well, this is a realism based zombie survival game, so I should think so. 

Aw... I thought this was going to be about actual necromancers. Would make a nice addition alongside dragons and all.

Sarcasm is considered unlovely? Or are you just backseat moderating? Either way I wasn't being malicious.

Thanks for commenting on a topic to tell us how bored you are with said topic, totally added to the thread.

That's a pretty good interpretation of events, yes.

They've come a long way from green-skinned Martians invading the Smallest Town in America.

Yes, because our current democracies are working so well. We, right now in Britain, have basically a 2-party-state, whereby each party is putting up no alternatives. Thanks to the way our voting system works, no other party has a chance in hell of getting any power, ever. There's a massive amount of voter disillusionment, and if the next general election doesn't see the lowest turnout of recent history, I'll eat my hat.
Personally, I'm represented by an MP of a party I hate, and there's absolutely nothing I can do about it. At all. If I tried to run, no-one would vote for me, and the only alternatives are the betraying lib-dems, and a party whose leader is weak, and whose policies are basically the same leanings as my mp's. Both Conservatives and labour's policies are very, very close.
Slowly, power is being sneaked away up the chain, if you look at some of the bills passed. More of the security bills of late have been taking protections against government abuse away as well.
It boils down to, who's watching the watchmen? In a good democracy, the police watch (limited) the people. The government watches the police (limited). The people watch the government. In our system, the people are no-longer able to effect useful change on the government, AND the security agencies are saying "we should not be watched by anyone", and being given carte blanch to do whatever the hell they want.
This is a recipe for disaster.

No, the problem is that they can tell who you talk to, when, and about what. Like, if you have an affair, they know it. If you've a relationship, they know it. And all it takes is a little slip into a dictatorship government for that to become used for evil.

Almost done

This thread makes me wish I was an aritst/writer.
Which I'm not.
Oh well.

Last post before I go to Miami for a week. Another older drawing I did. 
 

 
Really hope to see this thread SOMEWHERE on the front page when I get back. You guys are great at what you do!

Many penises.
Wow.
Such bounce.

Banned for referring to yourself as an external entity.

An neurochemically unbalanced Spiffo bludgeons you to death with a wooden plank with nails hammered into it.

Funny you say that, my Ipod is around 85% metal and/or metallic sub genres..
And I'm not 14.

Totally agree with Rathlord concerning the meaning of "alpha".
 
DISCLAIMER
I AM TALKING GENERALLY, NOT ABOUT ANY SPECIFIC GAME
 
The argument of "give it a break, it's an alpha" rather misses a couple of key points:
The term alpha is currently used to mean anything from "tech demo" to "the build a month or two before we hit beta" Because of 1, gamers have no way to know what it means if a game labels itself alpha Because Early Access is still new, if a game is available there they may make the reasonable assumption that if a game is on Steam, it must be fairly complete because Steam has a reputation for being strict on what things appear there. This problem will diminish over time, but people aren't stupid for making that assumption. So instead, they look at the price and legitimately compare one £10 alpha to another £10 alpha If one of those alphas is a tech demo alpha, and the other is a just before beta alpha, and they've spent money on the former and they feel let down, they are likely to say so. Possibly angrily. Not everyone has £10 of disposable income. Not everyone lives in the States or Western Europe. This might represent the only game purchase they make in 3, 4, 5, 6+ months. Essentially telling these people they're stupid for not understanding alphas is insulting and rather missing the point. If you charge £10 for something, it's going to be judged alongside other things which are £10. If the game falls short under that comparison, an "it's an alpha!" defence is no defence since you're basically acknowledging that the game isn't currently very good but in a confrontational way as if they should have known that and are therefore stupid.
 
If someone compared Zomboid to another game sold for the same price, and concluded that Zomboid lacked under that comparison... fair enough, fair complaint. We priced Zomboid low in order to soften the blow of it being early in development (and also because often, 2D must mean cheap - "WTF £xxx for some stupid 2D game that looks like it was made in the 80s?!? LOL" etc) - I'm not sure to what extent that worked, or helped - but I genuinely believe it's been worth more than £5 for a while.

Liek dis if u cri evry tiem

Payday 2, GTA Online and Microsoft Office.
I know the last one doesn't count, but by god it's for my mental stability.

Damn it, my reasons for enjoying NV more than FO3 have all-been said.
 
I made that mistake once.. Never again.

It's a very nice idea, perhaps you could also find notice boards and such in offices or the schools?

I've always thought that being able to have story arcs that you can access and culminate in a cool scripted sequence with tons of loot would be a good thing (i.e find a radio on a dead squaddie blaring out an SOS that leads to a military armoury with a shit ton of zombies and a crazed survivor which once cleared out gives you the automatic grenade launching minicannon tank or something like that)
 
But I dont agree with endings, I think that the only ending should be "YOU DIED"

So...the more posts we make the bigger our balls get? Its like a metaphor for life

This was your first and last mistake, for the moment, as more could come shortly!
