We're sharing some progress.
We're reworking the combat system, which was one of the most common complaints in the previous Pre-Alpha Test.
In fact, in the previous test, we ran out of time and just made the combat itself work.
Now we're laying the groundwork to make even basic combat fun.
It's still early stage, but here's a quick update on what we're working on.
* Many of the motions in the video are temporary.
Once we have the general underlying action system in place, we'll be re-creating the motions around it.
- A system for hitting while moving
- Previously, when you attacked, your motion was fixed and you couldn't move, but now you can move as you wish while still attacking with your upper body. This means you can chase and hit your opponent, or back up and hit them, or whatever you think is more comfortable.
- Zombie knockdown system
- We're adding a system that allows you to knock down Zombies without killing them. Depending on the situation, you can knock down a Zombie and run away, or knock them down and follow up with a stronger attack.
