Off the bat, Zombie killing never looked so good. It’s straightforward and works so no complaints here. Other multiplayer features include a built-in VoIP system that serves its purpose to communicate to other players. You either have to find an in-game map laying around, which is clunky to use, or alternatively use a third party map online and calculate your location using road signs. Grasping your exact location is quite a challenge for newcomers as there isn’t a built-in map. You don’t get a nice little arrow over your head or any friendly fire prevention like in some of other zombie survival games. The clan system really only serves the purpose of a private group chat and for base building rights. You are free to register the clan and invite members, but will be required to repeat the process elsewhere. This lackluster server browser is a minor inconvenience, but a major pain over time.įrom within Miscreated, there is a native clan system that is server based and surprisingly not global. Nothing you generally take for granted in a modern multiplayer game, unless we are talking about Star Wars… Rather, you see every server and you can sort that list by name, players, ping, etc. By that, I mean when you load the server listing there is no search feature, no favorites, no recent list. When starting up the game to go play, you’ll be confronted with the server browser or lack thereof. We’ve embraced this as the norm as a gaming community and shoveled boat-loads to get the game we’ve all aspired to play. Whether in the name of time required for development, studio funding, uncertainties of game direction or all the above, we’ve come to accept that early access label. We also see you H1Z1 and Rust out here trying to survive under the same conditions. I’ll just remorsefully stare at Sergey Titov (WarZ) for such a scenario. That is, they are initially released as an early access alpha or beta build. Enter Miscreated circa 2014 by studio Entrada Interactice LLC that in the grand scheme of things is no different in that sense.Īs history repeats itself, early access games may eventually get finished a few years down the development road, or it may end in limbo and get rehashed about 6 different times.

Since the dawn of time itself up until the current simulations of a post-apocalyptic world, we have learned that open world survival sandbox games generally have one thing in common.
