Phube Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 I've got the crossbow now and the assault rifle. I'm now off to see this Vikram fella... Oh lawd. I used to think I would be quite decent in a zombie apocalypse but now I'm re-thinking it all. Exactly how I felt... I'd last about 3 hours if it came to it... I have a special in-built 'Panic Mode'!
Esequiel Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 £10 new in tescos at the minute! Well worth it!
edza Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Got this for chrimbo and looking forward to seeing what all the fuss was about. Seeing as people on my friend list have already played it ages ago, any chance their zombie corpses will still appear in my game?

Maybe not friends, but you should have some randoms, I'm thinking about starting this again BTW.
Blade Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 I really do need to get back into this. It is a cracking game but by gum it does shit me up!!
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 I'm just about to play some more of this. I do put myself off playing this. It's not a very pleasant game to play. Tense as fuck. I've got the Christmas tree with the lights blinking next to me. Dark house. Quite atmospheric. Fuck.
arab_freak Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 ZombiU 2 listed on Amazon France http://www.vg247.com/2014/11/25/zombie-u-2-listed-on-amazon-france/ Interestingly, rather than a vague December 2015 date, the listing pointed towards a specific day: October 17, 2015. The listing also mentioned Bandai Namco as a publisher, which is very strange since the game was developed and published by Ubisoft. Namco could simply be the game’s distributor in the region, or could be the new owner of the IP, albeit very unlikely. There is also a mention of New York as a setting for the sequel.
dazzybee Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Great game, would love a sequel. The multiplayer is fantastic too so make that online!!
Cube Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Note: Amazon have listed loads of fake listings in the past.
Wii Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 It doesn't make any sense. Namco Bandai publishing an Ubisoft game. Why? Where did they pluck that info about it being set in New York though? Ubisoft are finished with the Wii U, mature titles at least and have said so. I would like to know what this finished game is that they're sitting on until Wii U sales had picked up. Wii U should see a boost this Christmas so maybe early in the New Year they might release it.
Retro_Link Posted November 25, 2014 Author Posted November 25, 2014 Didn't Ubisoft say they had a game 'sitting there' ready for when the console sales picked up? Maybe they still didn't see it as a worthwhile/profitable release, but have sold the property on?
Wii Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) Didn't Ubisoft say they had a game 'sitting there' ready for when the console sales picked up? Maybe they still didn't see it as a worthwhile/profitable release, but have sold the property on? Quotes from Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot. "It's on the shelf, waiting for more families to have the console." "I think we have to wait for Smash Bros. to come," he said. "Smash Bros has always been a big, big property for Nintendo and for gamers. And we all know that there are lots of Nintendo fans that are waiting for big games to come. We know they are coming." http://www.polygon.com/2014/6/9/5793660/ubisoft-unreleased-wii-u-games So I don't think it is a mature title. Zombi U trademark was abandoned on March 24th, 2014.

Maybe Nintendo are funding this with Bandai Namco publishing it. October 2015. Maybe. This is strange. Edited November 25, 2014 by Wii Automerged Doublepost
Wii Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 It certainly won't be coming from Ubisoft that's for sure. As it happens Ubisoft have just announced a new Monopoly game and guess what platform it's skipping?
khilafah Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 It certainly won't be coming from Ubisoft that's for sure. As it happens Ubisoft have just announced a new Monopoly game and guess what platform it's skipping? that was announced a while back and yes, when the Wii U cant even get a monopoly game you know what kind of problems it has attracting third parties. embarrassing!!
nekunando Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 ..when the Wii U cant even get a monopoly game you know what kind of problems it has attracting third parties.. I'm part of the problem The Wii U games I own are: Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Game & Wario Mario Kart 8 New Super Mario Bros U + New Super Luigi U Nintendo Land Pikmin 3 Super Mario 3D World The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD Zombi U Wii Fit U (Promo Download) Wii Party U (Free Download) Zombi U is the only third party game I own for the system and I haven't felt particularly compelled to get any others..

Shame on you for not owning Monster Hunter 3 U. And Deus Ex. And Rayman Legends. And Resident Evil: Revelations. And Need For Speed: Most Wanted. And.......you get my point.
Clownferret Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 i've got really stuck on this. I died right at the top of the Tower just as the helicopter was arriving, then died with my next character trying to retrieve my backback and now I'm stuck on my way to get petrol for the generator. Have died about six times with about half a dozen zombies coming at me and all i have now is a pistol with 6 bullets. Am i right in saying that my Zombie at the Tower will be gone now that I've died more than once. I had so much weaponry. I have not played it with headphones but imaging it would be terrifying.

Yes, yes it was terrifying especially in my living room with the lights off at midnight!!

You can pick up all the weapons again from the same areas that you found them in, just that they may be located in different places. For example, in Buckingham Palace you'll find the crossbow, die twice and effectively lose it, it'll respawn somewhere different in Buckers. As long as you don't play it as a traditional FPS, but as a thinking man's survival, Ubisoft nailed the atmosphere on it. I think a lot of the reviewers missed the point on taking it slow and scoping areas out, picking off individual zombies, and running when the shit goes down.
Clownferret Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 i took it slow and it made a big difference. Killed the crowd by the petrol station with a flare and molotov. Now stuck in the nursey. Have been through once and ended up outside on the metal staircase. Went back in and can't find the keycard, then something very peculiar happened, I opened a bathroom cabinet in a dark room, and it kind of switched to 3rd person view and all i could do was look around but couldn't move or get out of that screen and in the end just turned the console off, which is a ballache as I don't know how far back i will have to go.

Something similar happened to me at one point I don't remember the specifics of the situation but I was definitely caught in a position where I just had to turn the game off as nothing was happening, no matter what buttons I pressed I'm glad to see this thread reappear, though, as I definitely recommend the experience on Wii U and have a great desire to make it through the game again. Resuming my 'Survivor' file may be suicide, though
MindFreak Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 This game is still lying around, unopened. I need to get into it after Captain Toad, I think, but I'm not that fond of zombies in general. However, the above posts gave me a desire to play it, it sounds good.
Fierce_LiNk Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 I remember getting pissed off at this game and didn't really go back to it as a result. I was on some sort of ledge or plank or scaffolding or something and ended up falling off. Instant kill. Didn't seem that high up to me. I was so annoyed and wasn't sure how it actually happened. Anyway, I went back to get my weapons and didn't see a ZombiMe and realised that I had lost all everything. Didn't play for much after that.
