Even in movies zombies are rarely convincing. In general, it is very difficult to reach authenticity, because the behavior of zombies is usually adapted to the needs of the film. When speaking of games, it's therefore a logical reasoning to make them for a shooter faster, stronger and more flexible than in e.g. Night of the living Dead - because if they weren't, they would be an easy target. To make a truly authentic zombie game, you would have to make the player as vulnerable and helpless, as it would likely be in a real apocalypse without medikits, without firearms and being infected as soon as you get bitten.

Does anybody know the film Wasting Away? This film is an oddball comedy from the perspective of zombies themselves. It is quiet funny and a quiet interesting approach. I tell you no secret that this is a niche, which is not yet exploited.

don't really know how i came across this thread again but about unity growing:

those team images get wider and wider. they are approaching 200 employees.

i still think that a nice, simple but useful engine for indie games could be done by a very small team. but a competitive WED and MED? not really...

The thing is that gamestudio has MED, Unity has not (afaik)
I just hope the new WED will bring some cool new stuff with it. Maybe not as powerful as the Unity Editor, but if it would be just a bit like it, WED would increase a lot in productivity

Too many cooks spoil the soup.

Unity <3

Unity </3

<3 - looks like a penis so I'm totally agree! ^^

Like a short penis!

OMG. That's got to be one of the funniest things I've read today. GameStudio has ... MED? MED is terrible and almost useless. I cringe just about any time that I fire up that program. It's outdated, unnecessarily difficult to use (compared to other 3D modeling software), and lacking in features.

Unity doesn't have something like MED because it doesn't NEED something like MED. There are plenty of free and inexpensive modelers out there that run circles around MED's ancient and outdated code.

... you may return to your regularly scheduled programming at this time ...

MED is perfectly fine to use for non-organic or simple stuff, not for humans or animals though.
However, I think the new WED replaces both the old WED and MED, i.e. you can edit the models directly in the level editor. Not sure how this will work out, though.
