Game Modes

Objective

Objective maps involve completing a random set of objectives that follow a general linear pathway through a map. Items are scarcely distributed along the pathways, and occasionally respawn points can be found.

Gameplay

Ultimately, the gameplay in this game is compariable to games such as Left 4 Dead. The pacing is a lot slower, rather than move around a series of maps, a campaign is usually contained within a single map with a randomized series of goals. Zombies are slow, but are almost constantly spawning and can overwhelm an area quickly. Resources, like ammunition, is scarce; players are often reliant on melee weapons which must be used carefully at the cost of stamina.

Players can bleed and or get infected. Bleeding is a gradual health drain until they use a bandage. Infection will appear to a player as veins appearing on their screen, followed by steadily darkening vision until their screen is pitch black, then they will pass. Their corpse will return as a running zombie. A player can delay the effects of the infection using pills, and completely clear it / immunize themselves against it using the Gene Therapy item. Players also have the option of taking their own life with a firearm to prevent themselves from becoming a zombie.

Controls

C - Compass / Objective menu
L - Suicide: Points your weapon towards yourself to commit suicide. Works with gun only, meant to protect your teammates from your eventual zombification.

Inventory management

Weapons + Items

Weapon and Items can be dropped by pressing G when they're in your hands, or by holding down the inventory wheel (1) and pressing G when highlighting an item.

Ammo

Ammo can be dropped by opening the ammo wheel (hold 2), highlighting ammo with your mouse, and letting go of 2.

Items

Bandages - Bandages can only be used on a player who is bleeding. They will stop the bleeding, and provide a small health benefit.

First-Aid Kits - Will heal a player for 30 (60 on the SCG server) points of health.

Gene Therapy - This item, when injected, will cure the user of their infection (if present) and make them immune to all infection until the end of the round or until they die.
