I just started a new game and I can say the vehicles help out lots early on, though I cannot speak for later in the game. I spawned in Rosewood this time and once I found a suitable possible home in the gated community, I took a car and drove all the way to the West Point drug store for axes - to save time. I'm rather annoyed that when zombies walk towards you when you're driving past, your character still gets panicked, and I feel like if it was in the zombie apocalypse and I flew by a zombie at 60 MPH, I wouldn't get panicked. I would also like the air conditioner to work a little quicker so my character isn't forever waiting to become cooled off. Another addition I'd like to see is more damage from accidents. I hit a tree at 70~ MPH and only busted a windshield and my headlights, whereas in reality, I'd die. One other thing; I'd like to zoom out more in a vehicle so I can avoid hitting a tree at that speed when there's a corner I need to go around. Other than those 4 things, the vehicles have helped me out in my game play, more speeding up the process than making the process easier considering I still have the dead chasing after me. It's a great addition and I cannot wait to see more.
