I picked this game up for like ten bucks the other day, and I am starting to regret it. I played the first Outbreak game, but only a few times, and wasn't that impressed. Guess I should have learned my lesson, but I picked up this one and after a few times playing, am already cosidering trading it in.
The NPC's are ignorant. I was at some zoo with these two chicks and they were both standing right next to me while I was trying to push some bus or trolley or cart or something out of the way, all the while yelling "Help" and all sorts of stuff, but they both just stood there saying "Yes".
There aren't hardly and zombies. I was at that same zoo, being chased by a giant infected elephant that's about as scary as a rotten banana and about half as smart. I only saw one zombie for the fifteen minutes I bumbled through that stupid zoo. Then I went to another level in some abandoned building and got chased around by walking plant-people. Where the fudge are the dead-heads?
Your character can't carry hardly any items. If you are carrying a gun, ammo, a first-aid spray and a bandage, you are suddenly incapable of picking up a key or anything else without setting something down or asking one of your moronic buddies to hold something for you, only to watch them run off to find more plant people to get attacked by.
I could go on and on about how crappy this game is. Have any of you ever bothered trying to play this (or the first one)? Are they worth the time it takes to sit through the load screens? Should I put this down and trade it back in or does it get better later?
