The world of Nether is loosely based on the city of Chicago. Popular elements in survival games, such as scavenge for resources, craft items, and permanent death can be found in Nether. Exploration is pushed to a higher level since most of the buildings in the city, including multi-level skyscrapers, can be accessed and become your vantage points.
BD: 2014 has been an excellent year for anyone who enjoys a night of spooky gaming, but it’ll almost definitely pale in comparison to the impressive line-up that 2015 has in store for us. It’s a little surprising how good this year has been, since the year that follows the launch of a new console generation usually isn’t very memorable.
As devs learn their way around the new-and-improved platforms, building new engines that take advantage of their ability to do and show more, this has historically been a time for experimentation. That tends to result in a mixed bag of games that lay the groundwork for even better sequels down the road, and while this year has been arguably better than most, that doesn’t mean we didn’t get our fair share of duds.
It's that time of year when creepy crawlies and malicious spirits prowl the countryside at night. October is the creepiest month of the year as Halloween takes center stage. It's the season for turning off the lights and watching some scary monster movies to get a good shiver down the spine. People can enjoy this ghoulish time of year in a variety of ways, ranging from trick-or-treating or visiting a haunted house attraction. Another option that players might enjoy is to fire up some mmo games to get them in the proper macabre mood. For that reason, MMO-Play present their list of the top five spooky mmos.
From the review: "Nether has a lot of potential to be a great game, but unfortunately it suffers from odd design choices that make the gameplay experience an exercise in repeat frustration. The addition of microtransactions and premium currency was an unfortunate decision to include in a game focused around the survival gameplay genere. Nether is difficult to recommend as a purchase as similar and better games are available to players."
Just exactly WTF us Nether trying to accomplish besides being a PC Game with the most Texture Pop Ins ever. (Yeh I know it's still Alpha but Ghee-Whiz I never seen so many Texture pop-ins, it's like the game was rendering as you walked LMAO)
I mean the Monster's effects of their appearances is nice but other than that Nether looks Boring and Generic.
If you're gonna rip OFF DayZ at least try to be good at it. Just surviving and shooting random monsters is BORING.
You need a Purpose other than Survive. In DayZ you gotta explore and take caution in every step you take because it meant life or death. In DayZ just getting from point A to point B was a Challenge all in itself.
Nether just looks like Sanbox run and gunning, get supplies then run and gun so more. No strategy No tactics, just simple enemy A.i. and Generic PvP shooting.
Then you have the upcoming Survarium (STALKER MMO) that totally kills Nether. Managing you're weight, armor, and weapon maintenance in Survarium is a Game within itself never mind trying to prepare yourself to go exploring.
I'm sorry but Nether just looks as Generic a F2P game that you can have. I hate to say it but WarZ seems better than Nether. WarZ although GARBAGE does actually make you think and use strategy and provides a certain degree of Tactical PVP combat.
