Project Zomboid

[Galatoni]

I'm just testing the water here. Is anyone out there aware/interested in playing a coop (ie not killing players ) game of project zomboid? If you haven't had a look yet its http://www.projectzomboid.com/. Its a very simple game really considering what you can actually get up to - think DayZ-ish.

If anyone is interested in having a go, register your interest here and we can see about getting a server up and running somewhere.

Looks very interesting ... so I'm interested :thumb:

[Galatoni]

I can't help but feel i'm just passing time until SC comes out fully.... *sigh*

[Galatoni]

OK. Not too much interest, but I fancy having a go. Jamoe said he'd fancy it, and myself.

I'm going to put up a server in the near future, i'll limit to maybe 6 slots and extend if more people are interested - don't want to skint myself. I'll post details on the forums as soon as I get them.

It's on offer at the moment for £5.99 - http://store.steampowered.com/app/108600/

Managed to get the Linux version working after jumping through some hoops. It doesn't appear to start from Steam

@Galatoni - where are you getting the server from? I'll chip in if you like.

I'd rather use one of the official ones, it cuts down on the time-consuming configuration work. There are a few good ones so i'll have a better idea of which i'll be using later. They're not expensive so there's no real need unless the numbers start increasing.

[Jamoe]

Sounds good to me, let us know the details when it's up and running.

Got it :thumb:

Can we not host a server at dMw?

[Galatoni]

Not if there is only going to be a few people, seems a bit unfair. If the numbers pick up then by all means. Was having a look.

Really customisable in terms of what you can do.  Details of infection, length of day, strength of zombies, the senses on the zombies, even when the civilian utilities stop working. Any preference as to how hard/easy you want it?
I was going to suggest; tough zombies, no infection (to begin with at least). Don't know what to do in terms of length of day though. :g:

Looks interesting.

Is this something we can play at the LAN on a local server?

Cheers,

I've no idea... it'd be damn fun though

Yeap, looks possible form what I can tell.

Zomboid Tournament - Everything On Hard - Last Person Standing.

OK. 6 slot public (i'll see if i can password it!) server is available at IP 5.62.106.150:16261. Its public so no password. It shouldn't be broadcasted as a public game so we shouldn't get anyone hopping on.

EDIT: When you first login, the details you use will create the account. Login using your own password.

[Jamoe]

Good little run around last night Galatoni will be good to see a few more on there.

Not sure about it's longevity, will have to see how the fortifying/crafting/growing food works. I can see it being quite fun with a group of us trying to set up a few safe houses and farms.
