My problem with combat aint the number of enemies but the rate at with they spawn. You clear a wave and supposedly you should be safe to heal and relax a little. Reality however is that a mutant always shows up mid heal and if you get unlucky it will trigger another wave. By trying to imitate l4d, they ended up creating a semi frustrating gameplay loop. You could spawn in a wave if you cross a checkpoint on the map, put a few checks regarding health and ammo, and the game could control how strong a wave should be. But this is a rather time consuming method that would need lots of tweaks.
Still annoying, and the fact the girls cant shoot while walking means they usually get gangedeaded in every single wave.
Tho honestly, i still think the homebase and H events are of more importance than combat. This is an H game, if we wanted to blow zombies brains, id go play other games. And despite my criticism, i still think the combat is decent, not great but also not bad.
The odds of the girls visiting arent that low, but the latest demos removed this feature. So i can see why most people wouldnt know about it.
To begin with the reason for the homebase existence was nothing more than a training ground for teamkrama , their next game Ascot is an rpg, so naturally learning how to make a town with npc's and quests was something they needed to learn. I just hope they dont abandon this game after the harem room. So much untapped potential...
honestly, combat-wise, left 4 dead 1 and 2 both blow this game out of the water; hell even the original SOD does.
As you mentioned, in those games you have time to catch your breath and revive people before more Zs show up. and the Zs in the aforementioned games are less nauseating to fight, i know having been playing a little L4D2 lately.
in this game however; if you aren't careful, you're in for a one-way ticked to shits-ville with the amount, how many are bullet sponges, and the insta-killing assholes like the worms, and the one with the mouth that makes it look like a serious sam reject.
Edit:
forgot to mention, top off everything i spoke of with a crash, and having had enough, i deleted this turd of a game. try as i might to get some enjoyment out of this thing, i just gave up. unless someone can convince me otherwise, i'm done with dealing with this shitty game
