"word on the street is that the title will be a post-apocalyptic survival horror sandbox MMORPG"

Today Sony Online Entertainment opened a new website for its unannounced project, apparently codenamed H1Z1. The website can be found here, and it shows just a rather eerie landscape for the moment.
President John Smedley mentioned on Twitter that the game will be fully unveiled with gameplay footage tomorrow.

Spooky! A perfect setting for a zombie like game?

A perfect setting for a spooky game not involving zombies.

**** zombie games, holy **** SoE.

Also, this is an MMO so it should probably go in the sub-section above here.

Re: H1Z1 (Sony Online Entertainment)

I don't understand why developers can't make a zombie game with the correct atmosphere, fear, and intensity of what this plague would really be.

Take games like Outlast or Alien Isolation, those games show how to do atmosphere which creates the mood a zombie title should have. Then add in the survival aspect of something like Don't Starve, extremely rough conditions that change constantly and force you to be always on your toes. The crafting and item system as robust as say Skyrim or one of those large open world games, plus realism of gun or weapon play of a title like ARMA 3. Finally remove the MMO aspect and make it a 2-16 Coop multiplayer experience. Don't add in human bandits, instead replace those with AI bandits.

I want this type of game but DayZ is so buggy its not worth it.

That would be awesome Phobia.

I hope this game is good. If so, I am all over it.

Re: H1Z1 (Sony Online Entertainment)

This game is something I'm somewhat interested in. Wonder if it's going to have the same harsh consequences as Day Z.

I watched that initial video yesterday and it looked a lot like Day Z.

Sony’s Sandbox Game H1Z1 Had a Stunning 3375×732 Panoramic Screenshot and More Hidden in its Website

Sony Online Entertainment has always been fond of its Easter eggs, and in fact the upcoming open world sandbox zombie survival MMO H1Z1 has a juicy one hidden in a very clever way in its official website, discovered by Reddit users rholk and Super1d.
If you browse to the website and look at the top left of the screen, on the mountain, you’ll notice a blinking light. It’s actually Morse code. Upon deciphering it, it leads to a shortened link that reveals the stunning panoramic picture below.
I strongly advise clicking on it to enlarge it to its full 3375 x732 resolution. Looks like Sony Online Entertainment has a visual treat in store for us with H1Z1. That enormous forest partly covered by mist, paired with the amazing draw distance, is just what we need to kick off a lovely Sunday.
And the best thing is that we’ll be able to explore it soon enough.

In addition to this, the picture of a zombie apparently named “Fred” (That’s the file name of the picture, discovered by Reddit user Timskijwalker) will randomly appear upon reloading the page. You can see him below. If you actually browse to the official site, don’t do so while drinking your coffee, because if “Fred” appears when you don’t expect him, you’re going to stain your pants.

At first...excited.
No single player....not so much anymore.

DayZ is tiresome now for me due to the mom aspect ....too bad...looks nice.
