Zombi - Pure Survival Horror is coming to PS4, Xbox One and PC [ZombiU Port]

They flicker on both PS4 and Xbone.
Lol you're so salty, I never made a claim that everything I posted above was fact, half of it was opinion based.
Indeed, unfortunate all around.
Be happy. It would be even worse if they promoted this piece of shit port.

Such a shame. This is exactly what I feared. Instead of doing a good port and keeping everything they could intact they ripped out so many bits that made it unique. The messages and the friends corpses showing up were some of the things that made it so fun. Then with the other bugs you can tell this was shoved out there to try and make a buck instead. Ubisoft has doomed this franchise again.

Aww that sucks.
Was interested and the price is right but it sounds like a sloppy port.
Hopefully they give it a patch or two.

Help us H1Z1, you're our only hope
Point is that you wrote them as if they were facts. And yes I am salty. Sometimes. Right now.
No I didn't? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that saying something like a UI or visual effects are better is entirely subjective. You're literally shitting up this thread because you're upset over how I worded a couple bullet points. Get over it and go play the game that you likely bought because you're defending it so hard.

jesus...all the doom and gloom in this thread. Game is fine for me, and is fun as hell. I guess I can see it being a downgrade for people who already experienced it on wii u, but I never played that version....This on its own is a great game imo
How bad is it on xbox?

Oh man, I was really looking forward to this. Still, it's only $30 and I don't have a WiiU, so I'll probably get it anyway.
So Eurogamer are saying....
Excellent. Picking it up on PS4.
good enough for me.
I had always said the gamepad/backpack thing seemed unnecessary.
Improved textures are probably the main reason
I've always been interested in this game but never interested in a WiiU. Now I can finally pick up my cricket bat and Simon Pegg it around London thanks to a nicely priced, slightly improved, digital download. Good enough for me, too.

That'll do then. Just bought and remote downloading now. Hopefully it'll be ready when I finish work.
I never played the Wii-U version so £16 seems like a good price for a chance to play through this for the first time.
For those who have played either version how does it compare to Dead Island and Dying Light? I played the shit out them and loved 'em both.

What I see from that comparison is that they made the game overall lighter, which is a pity. The game was very dark and it helped the immersion. You need the flash light a lot in the Wii U version, here it seems you don't need it that often.

Is there any differences between the ps4 and xbox port? If there are none I'll get the xbox version since that machine is a lot quieter.

So...PC version delayed?
Given all the preorder nonsense all publishers do nowadays especially Ubisoft, this is kind of the opposite where you cant even postorder.

It's a mystery. The game isn't up on the Uplay store, either.
Eurogamer video really did not do the port any favors. Sure they fixed a few textures here and there like a low res warning sign and threw some additional blood decals in some spots but its basically the same but running worse. The most obvious change is how much they increased brightness.In areas where a flashlight were needed on the Wii U they are now no light needed

the game should be on Uplay at 5/6PM UK time, and most likely following that on Steam either at the same time or one hour later more or less. At least that's what I read on Ubi's forums.
What I don't really like about that port is the removal of the "dirty lens" effect...I hope we can get it back in the PC version.

I actually like this. The effect is getting way out of hand in many games.
Haven't heard anything about PS4/XB1 performance differences yet, but the DualShock uses the touchpad to bring up your backpack and, like the GamePad, uses the built-in speaker extensively. So, there's that.

Even if it's not in the options there, just activate it via ReShade then.

How does the WiiU/PS4 controller's built in speaker improve the game? Is it more immersive (eg its for things like phone calls from people in the game)?
Not that it's of any consequence in this case, but Ubi withholding the presence of the game from the two services within which it has absolute and instant control is rather odd. "It's a secret!"

Didn't know about ReShade, thanks for the tip

So the decrease in tension "improves the game to no end"? In a zombie apocalypse game? Nice technical analysis

Actually going through reviews and watching a few comparrison videos, this doesn't seem to be as big if a disaster as I first thought. More a lateral move overall.
Zombi U was always a flawed game. Interesting, and fun, but no overlooked classic as some would make it out to be.
Zombi seems to keep the overall positives, while upping the resolution, and swapping some negatives around.
I'll pick it up once it's got a deep price cut, same as I did for the U version. Hopefully the frame rate and occasional glitches get patched a bit by then.

the ps4 version in the eurogamer video shows its missing some texture mapping and shadowing as well. not a deal breaker but still disappointing
