World War Z

Looks like a l4d clone to cash in on the nostalgia, how much did they pay to get the world war z IP ? just to sell the game.....

What wrong with that? All games now come via a download agent now days

If you don't know what's wrong with the epic launcher I suggest you do some research.

Game looks fun but a shame about the decision.

I use it for a few games. Work fine for me.
Why don't you tell me what's wrong with it?

Looks like the closest we'll ever get is Back 4 Blood, recently announced by Turtle Rock. TBF though, it should be pretty damned close.

Yeah that does look promising.

This looks pretty decent for a coop mindless zombie game, Epic launcher and all, and I have a lot of hope that Back 4 Blood is a real spiritual successor to the Left 4 Dead games too.

I liked World War Z the movie but South Park totally nailed the cheesier parts of it with their parody. The World War Z book though is actually really great and I highly recommend it,

Just pre ordered. Fast paced. Decent graphics. Just my sort of game!

Big jump, suspect they must be getting increased demand as all the recent trailers/gameplay have looked good. Glad I picked it up at £20.

First time I'm not happy with cdkeys. Just had a refund of the order with no explanation. Anyone else have this issue?

Edit:

Got a response from them.

We regret to inform you that there has been an unexpected issue with stock for this title so we have had to cancel your order and refund your payment

Given they are still selling it guess they couldn't source it cheaply. Bit annoying but will buy direct from epic store since it's the same price but will wait since I'm not getting any savings.

Just seen a comment in a Twitch stream (different game but they are talking about World War Z) which read as follows:

We regret to inform you that there has been an issue with this title in that Epic will not be releasing keys to Third Parties so we had had to cancel your order and refund the payment.

The person hasn't said which third party they used, but looks like that's what the issue might be

The movie sequel has hit problems and is in hiatus so perhaps Epic want to maximise sales now it looks like there will be no promotion from the movie ?

if you want a decent zombie game reminiscent of l4d check out killing floor 2. You can pick it up pretty cheap in the sales and they often have free play weekend.

Pretty well supported aswell there are allot of comminity made maps and tripwire do some awesome events.

Tom|Nbk · 8 Apr 2019 at 20:22

Yep mine got refunded from CD keys oh well I'll wait on reviews and see if it's worth full price. Does look fun though

Brazo · 8 Apr 2019 at 21:46

Got my refund

But they do send a £4.99 ‘sorry’ discount code.

tracertong · 16 Apr 2019 at 10:30

This looks great fun and as a big fan of Left 4 Dead , I'm in.

Brazo · 16 Apr 2019 at 10:49

Can it be downloaded yet? Couldn’t do it this morning when I tried!

Colonel_Klinck · 16 Apr 2019 at 11:36

Downloading now. Pretty quick too, getting 196mb/s

wellibob · 16 Apr 2019 at 11:42

Mindless lego wall like building zombies. These, need to be slaughtered on site.

Brazo · 16 Apr 2019 at 12:51
