If you’ve paid attention to Undeadgames for the past couple of months I have been trying to pump Fort Zombie up. They even gave us exculsive screenshots of the game to post here. But what has happened after release has me appaled and has made me think twice about buying any game with the Kerberos name on it (Although Cataclysm’s still alright).

I bought the game and had a ridiculous number of problems. In fact I havent played it since the first day because it was so bad. Apparently MANY people if not all have had horrible issues with the game since release you can see that on their forums here. Many people have posted legitimate issues and have had very rude remarks back from the developer such as

“Grow up enough to read the manual and figure out that items are not picked up as if it were an FPS. Frame rate problems on some machines are being investigated. As for the rest…gfy pleb baby…gfy”

“someday monkey will make a post that’s NOT self-referentially dramatic and the shock will be terrible for me.”

“after a weekend of dealing with the bitching of people running into the clearly endless void in a ten dollar game, you will have to excuse me if my opinion on the sense and sense of humor of the average gamers has been lowered somewhat.”

“Lena, so far it seems you are a lil imagination challenged, given your mulitiple “not getting it” posts…”

“The irony is that when we did SotS we literally bent ourselves into pretzels making sure it had low system requirements and the reward was “where are your fancy lighting and shadows?”

This time we put in the fancy lighting and shadows and suddenly we are system requirement nazis…”

I have more examples with screenshots of course but theres no use in going through them all, just visit the forums and you can see for yourself.

Here are the facts

The game is horribly laggy on most systems, and many of those running top of the line hardware, Im in fact running a 4870 and the performance is horrible.

The AI is the worst I’ve seen in any “commercial game” comes close to Paintbrawler.

The zombies look absolutely terrible.

I was holding back because I thought the game had “potential” but honestly I don’t pay for potential. I don’t buy a bunch of flower when I want a sandwich because it has the “potential” to become bread. I want what I pay for and this certainly is not worth $10. Many IPhone apps are better than this and sell for less.

Apparently the devs think zombie fans are fools and are willing to just blow $10 and get a very subpar incomplete bug fest. I for one will not be buying from Kerberos ever again, more so for the unprofessional comments I have seen on their forums. I am looking forward to seeing the major sites and magazines agree with the users about how bad this game really is.

Bottom line save your money.
