REVIEW ZombiU

ZombiU It is trying to abandon the traditional methods of game, offering players a cinematic instructions for survival in a zombie apocalypse.

The nameless hero is one of the survivors on the streets of London, the affected strain of an unknown virus that turned people multimillion metropolis into bloodthirsty zombies.With the help of a mysterious well-wisher "he" or "she" obtained a small set of equipment and the first task.As in most modern products on this theme, players will explore the environment to produce resources and carefully plan the attack on the undead that will solve the problem of contamination.

Stepping beyond the cliches and cliches characteristic setting, the developers break the traditional game mechanics.In order to become a zombie, our character rather just one bite, that is, the collision with only one dead man does not bode well, and a meeting with a couple-three zombies withIt guarantees you a hundred percent probability of imminent death.For this reason, most of the time players will have to skillfully hiding, used elements of the environment, one trick undead and save a few bullets. Later in the game there will be more powerful zombies, so even a tete-a-tete could easily lead to the death of the hero.

However, the game mechanics offers everything needed for survival. Using Wii U-plate, you can scan the surrounding area for moving objects (where, in addition to the zombies get rats or crows), pick locks, and include a special camera.In addition, the tablet is a sight for the sniper rifle or a stationary machine gun.Also, the tablet lets you manage a backpack, reloading and use the kits in the event of non-fatal injuries.When using the tablet, you can turn on and off the flashlight, as well as open sewers, which create points quickly move to the shelter and they come in handy in the event of the death of the main character.

The death of the hero, as in the case of Dark Souls, not the end of the game in normal mode of narration.Your hero dies, you lose all the equipment, but you continue to play for the other, being in a shelter, it can get to your last avatar, become zombies, kill him and pick up all thepreviously collected items. However, if you are lost on the way to the past I stuffed the loot character disappears.

Graphically ZombiU It should create an atmosphere. Although the environment and the characters lack rigorous study, lighting and special light filters though to the atmosphere of terror.This contributes to the sound effects and the slow pace of the narrative, driven into the scope of the "syurvayval horror."Believe me, nothing worse than a triggered alarm accidentally and the stamping of feet, you do not feel any of the games in this genre. Famous locations such as Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London Underground, or make a certain amount of realism that is true can be added to the merits of the game.

However, the focus on survival and makes playing the opposite effect.Saving ammunition, the first few hours of fun to carry head zombie club cricket in style Shaun of the Dead, but it soon becomes boring.Yes, it is possible to drive up stuck in the fence zombies barrel with gasoline and then to blow it, but melancholy mechanics will soon make you bored. In addition, control over Wii U-plate in some cases annoying. Recharging the gun by dragging icons of ammunition just uncomfortable. Not to mention the constant management of a backpack with all the same small icons.It is clear that the creators wanted to keep playing on their toes, because during the resource management, the world continues to live by the rules, but the same overcharging could hang on a single button.

Management turrets using Wii U-Tablet made uncomfortable - sometimes just can not see the enemy because of poor camera angles. Flashlight - another pain.To carry in a backpack a dozen batteries, because the flashlight lasts for 90 seconds - it's not the wisest decision.And then where did you see a flashlight that works just fifteen minutes? And of course the difficulty. Sometimes Zombie jump because once the door is open and you die, because your gun was not loaded or you do not wait too long to raise the bit for the next blow. Sting - means death.

The game has local multiplayer, where one player King of Zombies undead puts it on the map, and the other to fight them with the help of Pro Controller or Wii remote / nunchuck. The latter combination does not work with the desired result, so it is best to use the Pro Controller.
