...a day later, their footage was found.[br]Luckily, we ourselves are far more sensible than our arch-nemeses and after studying the article and the pictures they took, we feel safe in the knowledge that should we encounter a horde of undead controlled by some sort of ma-lol-ovent master of puppets (a situation chronicled in the documentary Zombie Master), we will be well-informed enough to cope. We have learned from their mistakes; our safety is assured, and we will not fail as they did.[br]

[br]You can read the full text by clicking here, and find out more about Zombie Master - the promising mapper-friendly hybrid RTS/FPS zombie mod - here. Now excuse us - we may be gone for some time.[br]Three days later, they were all dead.
 
Gibtastic. One of the few(actually, the only) zombie mod that appeals to me. Killing PC zombies just isn't as fun as killing NPC zombies together with other humans.

Also, malolovent? Awesome.
 
Whoops, didn't spot that. But actually...hmm, keep it in? :laugh:
 
Well done ZM team. New hud looks slick.
 
I think I just wet myself...
*checks*
Why yes I did! :D

Zombie Master!!!
 
Never heard of it.

And that HUD looks photoshopped

:p
 
The qckbeam HUD lesson made be very much so aroused with some of the new powers. He ain't just a pretty face.
 
rofl this topic title is awesome

almost as awesome as zombie master
cheers you lovely people

Hehe your quick aren't you Nightshade! Pi is one of the survivor skins indeed, as is Lawyer. That silly HUD pasted on top is balderdash i tell you, the new one is primative, but boy it has fun features! :D
 
nice, screw the custom content, just make good gameplpay, if you get 1000 people playing valve will allow you to sell it ! then buy people to make custom models. was that right?
 
Sweetness is running through my veins!

Good luck - take your time; i want the best ZM it can get...
 
I liked sulk's post better than the actual story on PHL :|
 
Are you saying tampax is not a good story teller?

This whole HL2.net/PHL rivalry is quite old... why can't we just get along? I don't think anyone on the PHL staff has any qualms with HL2.net, so I fail to understand why some people feel the need to bash our site constantly =|.

Anyway, we all had a blast playing this wonderful mod with the ZM devs, who are almost all hl2.net admins as well if I'm not mistaken... so to hl2.net/ZM--great job on the mod, and keep it up! =)

I was at PHL months before I ever found HL2.net.

Ok, lemme tell you why I liked sulks' post better than the story- no offense to you, depth charge, but you don't have much of a personality, whereas the content writers here do, and apparently have a bit of fun with their reports. PHL staff eaten by zombies? Do you know how cool it would've been if you had written the article from that point of view? I suggest to you that you start taking a bit of liberty with all the media you're getting, don't let AcPaco have all the fun in the editorials. Of course, if that's not your thing, you keep doing what you're doing, but I'll definitely enjoy PHL a lot more if you start enjoying yourself <3

Have you read any of the mailbags? Or any of my other pieces, for that matter? :P
 
I'm liking the look of Zombie master, but why do half the screenshots in the media section look like they have been taken with garry's mod?
 
They do?

I can 100% guarantee that every one of our shots come from actual playtests with actual people. There'd be no point in doing otherwise.

Hey, personally I wasn't slagging off PHL at all. I was playing on the rivalry...I often refer to hlfallout and PHL as our 'arch nemeses'. :P

Also, Pi, since when the hell did we have a HUD? That wasn't there last time I played. :eek:
Granted, last time I played was quite a while ago.
 
It was added not long before the PHL playtest (although not specifically for it). It's nowhere near finalised though.

You should play again soon. There's been a lot of changes, and I spent this week working on the maps, so it's all very different. :)
 
Yeah, I just suddenly remembered the ZM forums, took a look and was like 'whoah, new stuff'. Count me in for the next playtest. \o/
 
I'm still tempted to record a video, but Pi keeps threatening me with a hammer.

At the same time, though, it's apparent that quite a few people don't like that approach, and would rather just read the bare, dry bones of the thing. It really depends on individual preference...I think we're trying to at least shorten our newsposts if not go as far as to boil all the (dubious) character out of them.
 
The environment at PHL seems a little more formal, and I think they should keep it that way.
I don't want HL2.net and PHL turning into clones of each other. D:
 
Yep, I think we'd be in trouble if we couldn't decide between HL2.net and PHL.
