This is a very early pre alpha build. Looks...interesting, though currently only because of the setting.

This better not fucking suck.

Morgoth What do you know about this?

Fake Edit: Apols if there is already a thread on it. Didn't fin it on first page.

Looks like Left4Dead combined with Skyrim combat. Fatshark? These guys from Krater game? Wonder if they could make better DoW2...
And why it repeat?

It looks like they've got a really good weighty feeling going on with the weapons. Can't really say much else about the game from that trailer, though.

Two new videos:




Doesn't look too bad, but why co-op – I hate people and want it to be a SP game.

Motherfucker bears a striking resemblance to the rats he is helping design.

So this is basically a Dishonored/L4D hybrid in a WFB setting?

Actually looks like it might be fun for a bit.

I have fond memories of L4D2, especially the versus mode. Although it doesn't look like this has a versus mode.

No Versus no buy. How do they expect there to be any replay value beyond the first time you play through the game? Will be interesting to see how many maps there are as well. Anything less than 10 and it's going to end up being repetitive really fast.

Some people like that stuff but I believe most fans of these co-op focused games play them for co-op mostly so using time and resources to create and balance other modes would probably be a waste of time.

Nah, Versus was far more popular than normal mode in L4D. Everyone who wanted just the co-op quit after they got their fill within a few months. Everyone who stayed longer did so just for the Versus PvP.

"Few months" is a lot of time for a game.

Few months in this case means 1-3 months. And, no, it's not a lot of time for an Online game.
Yes, 1-3 months playing the same game is a lot of time. There are few games worth playing more than this. Like... almost none.
