I really love the game and the commitment to realism.
I love...
- The new animations
- The new clothing
- The weight system for running and sneaking and moving around
- The more dangerous zombies, making small groups so much more dangerous. No more standing your ground swinging an axe against a group of 20.
I am concerned about...
- My weapon feels very ineffective. Even with a chunky weapon like a bat or an axe, the hit doesn't 'feel' like it has a lot of substance, especially when I don't get a good swing on it and just manage to give them a little tap. I'm concerned that though combat has been made more realistic, it might not be more fun if it always feels like I'm being overpowered, even 1 vs 1. I need a bit of practice and to see if I adjust to the new system better, but I don't think in the new system you'll ever want to fight more than 2 at a time, which means a lot more luring and kiting.
