An quick Interview With The Lead Developer of Zombie Pandemic
We managed to get our brilliant lead developer and game designer of Zombie Pandemic away from the coding for 5 quick questions.
Q: What are your favorite games?
A: Fallout, Deus Ex, The Bards Tale, Frontier, Dead Rising
Q: Which computers and gaming consoles do you have or used to have?
A: C64, Amiga 500, PC’s (486, pentium, AMD Athlon, AMD 64 3000+, Intel Quad Core), XBox 360
Q: If you had to pick the one feature you look forward to the most in Zombie Pandemic - which one would it be?
A: The ability to upgrade and modify weapons
Q: In a few words - what is the announced ”advanced combat system” in the game all about?
A: Combat takes place over several rounds stating with some distance between two groups of combatants. If all combatants are content with shooting there will only be ranged combat but if some prefer close combat they will close the distance over a few rounds possibly while being fired at. The rest of the combat rounds will be fought in close combat. The fight ends when one side decides to flee because they have taken too much damage or they are simply killed. The players will be able to equip their characters from a huge range of weapons before combat, weapons that can be customized to do more damage, have better range or more ammunition.
Q: Which other browser based games can you recommend?
A: Urban Dead, Tech Warrior
Q: And one final bonus question - what do expect to be your favorite weapon for killing zombies in the game?
A: Favorite weapon? The chainsaw is a classic against zombies. Apart from that I have always liked the G36 or maybe an mp5 and a baseball bat with nails in it.
