Omnicide is the premier zombie co-op and singleplayer modification for Battlefield 2 (A.K.A. BF2). This modification features an authentic zombie environment, with new and top-quality maps, weapons, skins, sounds, and chillingly authentic voice acting. In this modification you must think to survive and work with your teammates. It features two gamemodes: Survival, a new idea to BF2, where you and your comrades defend yourself until you are finally overcome by the zombies, and Escape, where you and your comrades fight to escape zombie hell. Give this mod a try, and you'll be amazed at what the Omnicide developers have done with Battlefield 2.

10 easy
Zombie killing for the win. :P
Omnicide. I think there is no point in me explaining what the project is all about. This is one of those mods that became classics for Battlefield 2, me spending days and nights playing in these iconic locations. For this review however, I’ll take my pink glasses off and give it a proper verdict! Let’s start off with Good parts:
1. Maps – The locations chosen for Omnicide are great and are very immersive. You have night-time fights (which are my favorite), as well as some day-time ones. Zombie Mosque’s chilling setting is truly awesome, just like Infected By The Dead, Chernobyl Outskirts, and many others. Every single one of them is cool, and has its respective style, which I appreciate. Great job, I wish I could play on more, but the number provided here is enough.
2. Zombies – The main part of the whole Omnicide of course, the zombies. These models are properly made, and sometimes scare the living hell out of you when coming from behind. You always have a sense of urgency when near them, and that is a very solid point.
3. Weapons – Can’t forget about these of course. Nearly every weapon seen in Omnicide has been remade, featuring custom models, sounds, textures and animations. To this day I love how G3A3 reloads in this mod. When you take in hands the machine gun, it truly feels like a tool to take down huge hordes of zombies. Also let’s not forget about the awesome easter egg AK-2015, the one-shot machine that’s awesome to have around!
With some positives pointed out, it’s time for Bad Parts:
1. Survival Mode – While Escape is real fun to play, especially on the huge locations seen in the mod, I can’t really say the same about Survival. Majority of locations were given a very small area of action, for example, Hell’s Facility. It’s extremely claustrophobic, and when it’s flooded with zombies, it’s straight up a nightmare. The support kit with the sniper won’t help you much because it’s not a one-shot kill on the zombies, and the pistol is absolute garbage when it comes to damage. Only on large locations you have a chance to score some good rounds, but forget about it entirely in close-quarters versions, unless you have some friends around to help you.
2. Broken Assets – I’m going to classify the huge bugs in this category, since Omnicide is basically filled to brim with them. My first big complaint about the game is this “Zombie Mode” garbage. For some reason if you are killed, you suddenly switch to the other faction, and literally can play as a Zombie. While this worked fine in Co-Op, and allowed you to research the map to your liking, in Singleplayer it’s extremely annoying. This was the main reason I played the 3.0 version, because it didn’t have this team-switch problem. Next up is Carrier Escape which is literally unplayable. Yeah you can reach the escape point, but the boat simply doesn’t work. Same can be said about the flag, it’s uncapturable for whatever reason. Quality control issues can be seen everywhere, from flags clipping through walls, to weapons being able to fire while the reloading animation is still going. Let’s not forget about zombies that speak Arabic for some unknown reason. These are some rough patches that this project hasn’t fixed since the Final version dropped. Some new content was teased back in 2015 with some news, but since then nothing new appeared on the website. That’s a shame.
3. Crashes – Omnicide is prone to crash very often, and I’ve experienced this multiple times back in the day. This was one of the more unstable projects that were around, and I can completely understand why. Remaking an AI made for gun battles into zombies is a very hard task for sure. But still, these crashes ruined some good runs I had, and it was a very disappointing conclusion to them every time it happened. Also, the Conquest problem. Developers never stated that you should host the game in Coop Mode only. When you forgot to switch Conquest mode, the game would simply crash to desktop without warnings. This was one huge reason why my friends refused to play Omnicide with me at internet cafe’s, because hosting a server was a big problem.
Final Mark: 7/10
I would say the best zombie mod all of BF2, but there have been very little zombie mods for this game. I will however rank it in the top few of my favorite BF2 mods because of its authenticity and suspenseful gameplay of zombies coming at you non-stop. :D
YEAAAH !
Great zombie mod for BF2
