Sorry was talking generally, games like dead rising, left for dead, all those fps horde types. I probably wouldn't mind the hordes if there was some more impactful weapons.

How far in are you or did you get? Near the end I was mowing down 100-200 hordes with ease. How is left for dead anything like this?
I have napalm and the machine gun which one shots zombies. Not sure if there is anything else to get. I am talking simply about the stale zombie horde mechanic that is in many games, waves and waves of big groups or just loads of zombies, I'm not sure why this is confusing. State of Decay is perhaps a better comparison as it's third person.
I think the biggest horde is 500 or so. Has any game had so many enemies on screen at once ?
Probably not in 3D no.

According to this you are correct Days Gone: The 10 Most Challenging Hordes (& Their Location) (thegamer.com)
Maybe this is on the hardest settings and there are less on lower difficulty settings? I swear it was about 350 on my playthroughs on normal diffuculty.
And according to that article as well the Iron Butte Ranch one only has 70 which i find hard to believe. There are loads in the pits that are dug out.

I can't imagine what fighting the hordes must be like on the harder difficulties. I was getting clobbered by the big ones on easy! It was only after I'd polished them off that I saw things in the environment that could help you like narrow gaps, pulling down objects, etc. I did no planning.

I tell you what was impressive in this game - the lighting. When you fired guns in the cave and the whole cave lit up, it was almost blinding.
It’s annoying for sure. But encourages exploration ! You can fill up via petrol pumps at fuel stations btw

That took me ages to work out, I was always on the lookout for the red petrol cans until i realised i could drive up to a normal petrol station and refill!

Yeah I know you can with the bike, do you mean you can fill cans?!
I don’t think so, no. Only the bike
still. A pretty cool mechanic, even though I didn’t find out about it til 3/4 to the end

That's really weird I naturally thought to try as soon as I saw one. Funny how minds work differently.
Aye. Well, I thought no electricity..no pumps.

By all rights you are correct. You paid the price for being too logical!
