    Anyone else playing this?
    Available on PC/Steam and made using the Unreal 3 Engine (AFAIK) - It is currently in Open Beta and playable by all.

    It's cheesy, it's tacky - But it's fun. You don't make a game with a name like "Zombies Monsters Robots" and take yourself too seriously, after all.
    Blend of everything from survival modes, PvE & PvP maps, character building, grinding - With zombies, monsters and robots all over the place. If you're looking for some silly brainless action to pass the time, give it a shot!

    Been mostly PvP'ing, which is both fun & addictive while also extremely frustrating. Also a lot of accusations of people using aimbots, though you can bypass this by sneaking to different channels or waiting until the lowly hours of the night to bypass the kids that have to use them to enjoy the game.
    Threw up a few videos of the PvP though probably won't upload much PvE as even the small maps on contained survival mode can be anything from 10-25minutes - And some of the Mission based Extermination maps can go on for 30-50minutes, which I find very boring.

    Oh - And prepare to die... Like, die a LOT. PvE feels like a 3rd Person "House Of The Dead" where dying forces you to use revive tokens to get back into the action, so if you do try it out - Save those tokens, because you're going to need them in advanced, expert or nightmare difficulties.

    Just started playing this last night. http://www.hazardops.com/en/ Here's my thoughts on it: OK, so I played about 8 rounds of this last night. 4 were co-op, and 4 were survival. On the co-op I only played 1 map, to get used to controls and the map. Not a huge map but very well designed. A birdge running through the middle, a river running on the right and it's on 3 levels. Played on Normal. The Survival mode is a hoarde type with zombies, zombie dogs, exploding acid fog zombies, and more. It's intense to say the least, but great fun. A bit reminiscent of World at war Zombies, board up windows and doors and get ready for the next round. The map I played was narrow, but you can dodge by jumping into buildings and running out the door. There are also traps to activate to roast Zombies and electrocute them. The game play is nearly identical to Gears of War., the reload is the same with the small line for fast reload in the reload bar. There are normal AI and then the running critters, and then the Flamers and the Big gun dudes. When you kill them you can pick up their weapons. Also a bleed out and an Execution which is virtually the same as Gears. I think if you get a certain amount of head shots in a row you get a Speed or damage perk, it's a big round orb where the last AI you killed is, just run through it to activate. The first 4 rounds were co-op, and the usual, right mouse to aim and left to shoot. Space is run, double tap space to forward roll, and tap to take cover. Tab brings up current score, and scores come up at the end. Haven't delved too much into the add ons for guns etc. I really hope there isn't too much of a need to buy ****, as I won't mind grinding away on this too much. I really didn't expect much from this as it looked like a generic shooter, but the game play is really really good. If you are a fan of Gears,(I am, but sadly no Gears on PC) download it, try it, and I'll see you online:-) Hazard ops name: locknload
