My take on the new character styles

GOOD JOB

This game is based at the time of the initial outbreak, not weeks or months into a situation. How do we know this? Because they aim to get to the safety of the end zone which is usually a truck/chopper or whatever. It's a crisis and these are ordinary lucky people who survived. If we were months in the Infected would all be dead.

REMEMBER THEY ARE INFECTED AND NOT 'ZOMBIES'.

If you have a disease you can still die of starvation. How long can a human survive without food? Not very long.


This gaem, as logic dictates to me, is set right at the start of the outbreak and therefore it's normal for ordinary people to be the players.

Ordinary people look like this:





I think it's an absolutely fantastic development. Good job Valve, good job TRS. Ignore the haters.

Hmm, I think that somehow shaving must make bikers gay nowadays :/

Heh, just wait until you've gotten used to these models. The people who've played the game all say its an adjustment for the better, so I'd be willing to trust them on that.

And welcome to the forums mate

He actually looked like a biker before, chubby, hairy and scruffy - who was out on the road and stopped in a city to find it infected. Now he looks too clean. Also Zoey looks like she walked straight out of a gym, just sayin'.
