I recently sat down to chat with the lead developers of Zombie Master, which is particularly noteworthy on this site because the development team is comprised entirely of past and present staple members of Halflife2.net, whom you'll no doubt recognize. Pi Mu Rho, theGreenBunny, and Angry Lawyer answered all the questions I could think of about the upcoming RTS/FPS fusion modification, and more![br]

Pi Mu Rho: Zombie Master is a crossover RTS/FPS mod. With zombies. Lots of zombies. And killing. Killing zombies. Or getting killed by zombies. Different types of zombies. On different maps, with different objectives. Killing. Zombies. Different. Raargh.

Check out the interview right here for more where that came from, enjoy our exclusive screens, and stay tuned for more Zombie Master updates when we got 'em - including, the interview hopefully indicates, a public release not too far beyond the horizon. For more Zombie Master goodness, like more media and a hopping community, head over to the ZM website.
 
Awesome media selection and interview guys :D Keep your eye on this one for sure.
 
I can't wait for soon. When is that anyway? I don't see 'soon' on my calandar.

Read the interview, a definite date is far from specified.
 
I did read the interview, and I was joking.. .. Hmm maybe I shouldn't be joking at 0:30am, but instead be asleep. Good night.
 
I'd just like to thank our dedicated team of testers, and their general inability to record demos when asked to. You guys rock!

:)
 
Just to clear this up, as i'm sure this is the time and place, i have an arms length of demos just itching to be watched, but someone is too busy TRying to make maps ;) You guys do a fine job anyhow!

This mod sounds interesting. I will definately be keeping an eye on it.
 
This "Zombie Master" seems entertaining and informative.
I give it ten out of a possible five stars because I liked it - twice!

I have not been paid to say this!
 
Those are some creepy screenshots lol.

I'm typically not a zombie-fan, it's so done to death (oh. pun not intended.), but it's a whole new dimension if you throw in the RTS element in this case. This looks like a lot of fun, keep up the great work :thumbs:
 
Meh, Streets is horribly, horribly unfinished. It's barely a tenth of what it's going to be. When I get time to finish it. In 2008.

:(
 
Well, I for one thought it was pretty cool that even if you managed to run the entire gauntlet, sledgehammering and shotgunning the hordes of zombies trying to stop you, taking shortcuts, frantically diving through shopfront windows and blowing your way through secret doors, you got to the end with fasties on your heels and realised the map was unfinished so there was no escape and no ending and a horrible wave of fear and despair and the pointlessness of life in a world where 90% of the population is dead swept over you and then you were dead.

D:mad:

Well, you shouldnt have made the mod so fun to play. So it's actually not _our_ fault. It's yours.
 
Sweet! I can't wait for the game to be released! I would love to play humans in FPS, because I am already a hardcore fan of RE where you still play humans (Claire, Leon, Chris, Jill and many more) in Survival Horror.

So I should give humans a try then I give zombies a try too.
 
Just to clarify, you don't play as zombies, you are the zombie master, like in a RTS game looking down over a map spawning zombie units and ordering them to attack the humans. Both sides are incredibly fun.

But hey, to be specific you also control and play as zombies to kill humans. Whether or not I am the zombie master, I still say that playing as a zombie would be fun as you can create your own zombie army and eat brains and bring civilisation to its knees.

But on the other hand, humans would be 10 times fun and the action would be the most intense and the most horrifying. As you grab you gun, hoping for the best and shoot the zombies, while you are running out of ammo, the other zombies are at your heartbeat and you are dead meat.

Sounds pretty frightening isnt it? Some of the zombie skins are made up from own, wow! That's great and awesome!

Anyway, I hope this game will be released.

No you play as the zombie master and you order zombie units to attack, which they carry out based on a.i. , you don't play as the zombies, theres far too many.

What an absurd thing to say?
 
Oh, now I know and hey thanks for the information.

And that is not an absurd thing to say. In fact, Im serious on this one. I really hope that this game comes out and we can download it and play and I love this game!
 
Obsurd!

(It's a mod, not a game - and it will be released. :p )

Oh, *slaps head*.

I dont even know what the heck was going on with me today... Hehehe, anyways, thanks for telling me that it is a mod.

And whoopee, it will be released! OH YEA!!!!
 
{cough}no more room in hell{cough}

i know it is a different type of mod but still, zombies, theyre fun to shoot and all that. whichever one comes out first between NMRIH and ZM will have my undivided attention....i hope either one is soon though to be honest cos ive been keen to play them both for a long time. And then theres Dead Rising as well, that looks pretty spanky
