I don't understand your obsession. lol.

Well, if you are into trees, Assassin's Creed 3 will have trees that you can actually climb.

Back on topic, I think this game > DayZ. The ArmA engine ruins DayZ in my opinion.

My excitement comes from it being the first actual zombie MMO that I can see being a lot of fun. I've been waiting for something like this for a long time. I thought Secret World would be what i wanted, but after seeing the gameplay, I was like, meh.

This looks like it will be realistic and action packed.

Yeah, I have been following this game for a while.
And I have a 90% positive feeling the developers will get this right. They seem to be listening to good suggestions.
Anyhow, never tried Secret World. I played Dead Island though - and it wasn't my style.
The other 'zombie' game I'm looking forward to is The Walking Dead FPS (Developer: Terminal Reality) The downside = the publisher is Activision for that one. So, my expectations aren't huge.

never really liked the game, DayZ i mean, and I,m not that much more intrested into the War Z.

I dont get the appeal.

Sure i like zombies and survival horrors.. but the thing is, it seems like that hardly offers any of the two.

Sure you survive by going around and whatnot getting food and yadi yadi yada...
but the game never felt ''scary'' i mean, you go around the corner, see a zombie oh damn! shoot.. phew...

Unless you are swarmed its easy as ***
and even then you run in a building and they all start walking because.. shadows clearly slow zombies down, it's a comon knowledge!

i like my zombie survival to feel scary, to feel like danger lurks at any corner.. and no i dont like many survival horror because of that reason.

One i seem to have interest in is ZombiU.. other than that

The appeal is the permanent death mode.

And the risk that comes with trusting other players. Also, if you PK (player kill) someone, he/she will be pissed and maybe he/she will cry about it.

Basically, the zombies are just a nuisance when it comes to finding the items to survive. It is the other human players that do the most damage.
