I heard the ps3 version had a game save glitch, has that been fixed?

TRU is still throwing in a $25 gift card... wonder if they'll do even better. heh.

As of this morning, the patch isn't out, but it's currently in review with Sony. There is a workaround for the time being where you set your game to coop over LAN to play single player.

By the time it ships, the patch should hopefully be live.

A guy at my Best Buy said they can match Amazon, so I might try that tomorrow.

PS3 version has HORRIBLE screen tearing. Some of the worst ive ever seen, its unbelivable really. The save glitch is both versions as far as i know.

Honestly im waiting for this game to hit <30 bucks. Its not at all what i expected it was gonna be, its bacially just an action game, no real survival horror involved. And the weapon degredation is ridiculously fast.

Biggest issue though is how buggy it is. It seriously needed a lot more playtesting

I'm in the same boat. I want this game, but not above $30. I'll hold off as well. Thanks OP!

LOL does TRU have PM? if they don't which deal is betteR?

From all the problems this game has that I've heard it's gonna take a drop to $10-$15 for me to try this. I'm so glad I didn't buy this when it first released.

Seriously, it's a buy at $20 or less and should be there soon.

Not sure if you guys even know but this game is hardly worth 4.99 let alone 44.99. Have you guys actually played it? It feels like a pre-alpha build. Tons of glitches and bugs. Extremely easy. Characters suck. Oh yeah and you are constantly repairing weapons by putting them on a table and paying the table money. Yes that's right, you give money to an inanimate object to magically repair your items. Brilliant.

I really want this game but I'll wait until the glitch is 100% fixed, its too risky losing all your save files!
looks like it will drop quickly too.

As someone who has clocked around 40 hours on it, it's pretty great aside from the sewer levels and fear of the save glitch online.

I honestly haven't noticed the screen tearing on the ps3 version but I'm no "visual"-phile. The game is kinda buggy though. Weapons vanishing after being thrown, npc's being glitched sometimes, and the save glitch. Weapon degradation is only fast at the start, since as you level you can use a skill point to increase weapon stamina and just leveling gets you more slots to equip weapons. You can also use skill points to increase how many you carry.

It's a great game but it's lack of "polish" can turn some people off.

i played the game on the pc and one thing im sure is that this game will drop very quickly, if you guys give it a few more weeks or even a month you'll start to see this go down, the overall quality of this game isn't even that good and coop is only mindless fun if you play with friends, other than that you'll probably try hard to like this game and you'll find urself more disappointed than actually having fun, the trailer is incredibly misleading since the majority of the story is just fetch quest, and the characters are just bland and character animation is just ugly even on the main characters, the actual combat with the zombies can be fun later in the game since you'll get overwhelmed if you're alone but since the game focuses a lot on melee, you'll pretty much be doing the same action over and over again and then you realize that constantly fixing the camera to get the ideal headshot with a pipe is tiresome. All the review that gave this game an average rating is dead on, it's a very unpolished and ugly game. This is not a triple A title like CoD, Gears of War, or Saints Row, this game has a very narrow scope and will only be enjoyed by people who REALLY like to kill zombies. Although I haven't finished the game yet, from what I can tell the core gameplay is lacking, the zombie atmosphere is pretty good aside from the fact that most of them look the same and spawn in the same place, but if you make progress than you won't care about that too much since a zombie is just a meat bag waiting to be smashed open and the map is big enough so you'll probably not see every place twice except for the main road, but without solid gameplay mechanics it just makes this game a very hollow experience.

So to sum up everything, if you are a hardcore zombie fanatic then this game might be worth it, but if you're looking for something enjoyable then unless you have played all the other fun games available I can't see you buying this without feeling a little disappointed

Must...wait...for...bigger price drop...

GAH! I want this game so bad!

i can wait. kenshindono what do you think is this generation's survival horror? deadspace?
just curious as resident evil surely isn't.

Shit can't edit on mobile...

Aldo don't go in expecting an epic story it does bare minimum in that department. Game isnt easy if you consider dying a "failure" . Though it still kinda suck since dying only makes you lose 10% of your cash. Which is terrible at the start but it doesnt matter by late to midgame.

Character are giant stereo types in each field. I've only run into 1 npc glitch so far where the guy would flash in and out of the map so I had to have my coop buddy talk to him. and ya you give money to a table but WTF its a zombie game it's not going for realism.

Buy this game. It is fun.

That is all
