TPV's Phil: "I thought I’d tell you about a game which has been a source of some of the best and funniest moments of my gaming life so far and I’m sure some of you guys will love. The game is around £15 and as such it is not really a bargain so instead this week I give you, Killing Floor.
Zombies + guns = success. That is true of every zombie game ever. There’s so many great zombie titles such as Resident Evil, Left for Dead and Nazi Zombies in Call of Duty, there are really no dud zombie games. "
The upcoming Killing Floor 3 takes centre stage in Tripwire Interactive's 15th anniversary celebrations, with new plot details revealed.
Tripwire Interactive's Killing Floor debuted 15 years ago, birthing a critically acclaimed series and a new publishing arm.
Enthusiastic developers told us about new Zeds, new mods, new engine, new everything, but showed us very little of the actual game. Our short Gamescom meeting gave us perspective on the upcoming title through many interesting, but very hesitant answers from the developers.
Graphically it looks quite nice. And I believe this is the first time they're using a new engine rather than a previous one.
Gunplay always felt really good with the KF games. My only complaint with this game and similar ones like L4D is that they become too predictable after a bit, so it gets quite boring. If the game doesn't have AI learning then at least give the enemies more methods of attacking players.
VS mode didn't work in KF2 because the game and enemies weren't designed for it from the start, that's what happens when it's tacked on and also takes place in an arena, it just becomes a camping game. Game mode wise I would prefer regular survival mode and one or two others, like a coop campaign and something else, but if they add VS it's gotta be done right from the beginning.
I think this use to be a UT2004 MOD sometime back...
Another game I have to check out
Man, such a fun game!
I agree with Lionalliance fun game. Wonder if there will be a Killing Floor 2 or some kind of expansion upon it? Not sure how it would happen but after seeing RO2 coming out I'd be interested. Though I like how they change it up every now and again with each holiday or what have you whether it be clowns or elves this is one hell of a game.
