    Urban Strife - turn-based zombie survival RPG

    Yep, if you use zombies against human enemies, they'll get the virus and bingo, you've just doubled the enemy force. Well, they won't shoot you any longer, so I guess it is a good trade off. Other than that kiting the wild zombies is a perfectly legit tactic since they are the universal enemy so...

    Dead State did a lot of things right regarding zombies.

    Urban Strife - turn-based zombie survival RPG

    The character development was present since day 1 but was not quite finalised. Last year we added the code for "learn by doing" system, we tested its ability to collect data from various events and we're currently discussing a final list of these "specialization" triggers. The systems are in...

    Urban Strife - turn-based zombie survival RPG

    That was not a status update in itself, just a random reply to a random question. I am doing my best to put together a news post before Christmas but no promises, I have to pick the brains of a some seriously busy people and these winter holidays just get in the way, honestly. Regarding the...

    We're still debating the pros and cons of having an infection debuff. I think for now both the bite animation and the effects are turned off.

    Urban Strife - turn-based zombie survival RPG

    The shotgun quickly decreases in efficiency with range so if you attempt the above tactic at let's say 3 tiles (a safe "green" range for a pistol), you'd only do 25 dmg (even less, depends where the spread goes) with a headshot instead of 70/oneshot. So you've used the hand cannon exactly as it...

    Urban Strife - turn-based zombie survival RPG

    That sounds like good tactics, nothing wrong with clearing the Port playing safe, splitting the enemy and having the nerve to blast them from close distance. Did you use birdshot or home made nailshot?

    Did you use sawed-off shotguns to clear the zombies in Port, too? That's bloody impressive since there are about 5 spawns there that would converge on your location.

    That crafting menu will go back to where is was, under its own button. The new 4k UI had to be redone at warp speed for the NextFest and not much time was left for tweaking.

    Urban Strife - turn-based zombie survival RPG

    Btw the "alerted by dead allies" is on a long to-do list for the AI, I asked. Also making the surprise attacks from the back the true real killer and less so those from front. And finally, stealth will become more refined once specializations (perks) come into play. Now even an elephant can...

    Urban Strife - turn-based zombie survival RPG

    The monks have more than one trick up their sleeve in Urban Strife. The demo doesn't really have a weapon progression, it's more of a showcase so yea, you get your hands on some pretty mean stuff that does 300 dmg with a headshot. Everything will be better balanced in the full campaign. But if...

    We're tempted to wait and see a 10 year old graduate from college, the world needs more wonder kids. Keep us posted.

    Urban Strife - turn-based zombie survival RPG

    Good feedback, thank you. A small note, time is paused in menus. And there will be more types of armor available, less LARP styled. The melee does seem a bit overpowered atm, especially for a player that knows his stealth tactics. Noted. Interesting AI tool, we'll check it out.

    Urban Strife - turn-based zombie survival RPG

    Can confirm, we paid those two crazy (in a good way) Portuguese a visit a while ago and tested an early demo of their game. I mean they built their own freaking motion capture rig, they're incredibly talented. From a tiny studio to another tiny studio, they have all our respect.
