Post news Report RSS State of Emergency is now searching for multiplayer beta testers!

Information and an announcement that we are looking for Beta testers

Posted by on

State of Emergency is currently looking for a large amount of people to test out a part of the multiplayer component for my mod, to see if the teams are correctly balanced, and what not, a quick rundown of how the multiplayer is intended to be played, and what I want to achieve with this testing.

1. The multiplayer does not involve zombies (well, not primarily)
There are 3 teams in the multiplayer.
1.) Zombies
2.) Rioters/panicked citizens/criminals
3.) National Security

> Zombies - These guys generally wander around the map, not doing much, they attack both teams, however they do not have the power
>Rioters/Panicked Citizens/Criminals - Don't have a name for them yet, their cause is to stop the National Security from getting in their way of Anarchy, their job is to fight National Security primarily. They complete a series of objectives, whether it is to secure a location, steal food, money, weapons, vehicles.

An example would be.
Game Start -> Criminals Secure Apartments -> Criminals then secure the military checkpoint -> Vehicles in the checkpoint are then used to travel a long distance towards a "food" store -> the food store must be captured -> the food must be loaded into the truck -> the citizens must then evacuate the city by driving a designated distance

>National Security - Their job is to stop the Rioters, they do this through lethal force, they have more access to vehicles and stronger vehicles. Unfortunetly, they lost contact with central command, so they have poor communication

The gameplay works in a way of one team does objectives, then progress is made, a new part opens up and then an objective is accomplished in the new zone, until all objectives are completed, as well as capture the flag mode, and deathmatch, however deathmatch is on the chopping block


The test will be conducted at the end of January but since I need a large amount of people I can easily contact I must start now. I will provide more pictures when I go on my desktop tomorrow night.

To sign up for the Beta please visit this link and post in the thread, good luck everyone! Crydev.net

Why you not simply make the zombie team as AI zombies who mess with the both human teams, so they have to deal with the zombies and the opposite faction as well. No one will want to be in the zombie team as player if this team havent any major role in the mod. Just my 2 cents.

Darn thought I made that clearer in the OP, since they are lifeless morons and all. Yes they will be Ai, they dont have a huge role, but they mess stuff up.

how can this be, when i click on the Summery page it says this mod has
ceased development and consequently been archived.
