Just some more random screens from tonight’s testing session. The new ambient sounds and winds really add to the tension. It dawned on me as I struggled on day 6 that we finally have a slow game. I remember back in alpha 1 you could have all the best stuff in two hours. It really feels rewarding finding good loot and slowly building up your character and fort. I have a pistol that broke on me, very limited ammo for my blunderbuss and a half decent club I found. I still can’t forge but I found an axe at a hardware store so hopefully tomorrow I can get enough wood to build some walls around my shoddy house I took over.

I love the emergent game play lately. A wandering horde came to the town not long after I cleared it of walkers and I lured them to a barn only to see six dogs come rushing me. I think Robert got caught in the middle of it and I heard his character screaming in the distance. Better him than me I thought as I went back to Woodburry to loot some more. Building a minibike is nowhere in sight yet, but I did find an engine. That is a start, I will keep dreaming of riding it one day. I’ll keep you guys posted, I plan on playing this game up until release.
