I guess it is better to wait than launch it when it might have too many flaws

    Too many zombie games on the market, too many zombie anything on the market
    This is a genre that is way too saturated, they should just cancel it and focus on something else

    They've invested too much money into it. I kind of like seeing how many ways you can kill a zombie.

    I didn't care for dead island, but for some reason I loved dying light.  Before that, the only zombie games I truly enjoyed were the left 4 dead series.  I know H1Z1 and DayZ are popular, but i'm not about paying to be a beta tester.  I'll check those out when they release a finished product.

    I hope it doesn't get overhyped like the first one did. That trailer was amazing but the game was

    Zombies are this decades "Beat it to Death" theme. Last decade it was WWII shooter. I wonder what next decade will bring us?
