Phesired Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Is this game a lot like 'The Walking Dead'? I am a big fan of it and I wondered if this is trying to be like it. If it is that's great because when I started watching it, I started to hate other zombie games because they was not like the ones in 'The Walking Dead' (too easy and you could just rip through them). I am asking this out of curiosity by the way. There's that and I was wondering if there would ever be a prison in the map, you know like the one they took over, that would be nice. If I am wrong and you guys just created zombies that walk in groups and stuff like that with nothing to do with 'The Walking Dead', I am sorry but still, thumbs up on the game.

Guest Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Don't think they were particularly inspired from TWD. As for prisons, there is always Fort Knox which will most likely be added in the map in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morbid_Angel Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Are you referring to The Walking Dead - Survival Instinct? Haven't tried that one myself but it is being buried in reviews left and right, which is why I passed on it. On the other hand, Telltale's Walking Dead adventure series is awesome - but generally speaking, neither of those two have a whole lot in common with PZ except the general setting.

AirborneM4 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 The one thing they do have in common is the hordes of zombies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silents429 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Depends what you mean by like it? What are you hoping are similar? It has the aspect to it where zombies aren't the only threat or thing to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinniPooh Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Actually, the latest episode of WD reminded me very much of PZ. Especially the part where Rick searches the bathroom cabinet for drugs^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He even mentioned that in sandbox mode you could put the settings like that in the walking dead as an example. Buy the game, its worth the money. Try the demo first, though. doomblood66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sickboy2212 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 i don't know if you mean the game or the show or the comics, but in the sense that the game seems like it's mostly gonna be based on the human element of a zombie apocalypse (moral, in-depth npcs which from what i remember from a while ago were supposed to all have different personalities that can clash etc.)) yes, it's close to the walking dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Similar in the way they are both zombie apocalypses. The game has been in existence long before TWD came to tv though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footmuffin Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Same focus, approach, and inspiration, different medium and content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With my post, I meant the way zombies behave.I believe with "like the walking dead" he just meant how the zombies and infection system works.Theres fast shamblers and the "everyone's infected" option, so he / she could've pretty much a walking dead style experience, plus the fact that the muldraugh and west point map here isnt TOO different from walking dead's georgia - It includes wilderness, farmland and cities.
