Once more dedicated servers are up, it'll be awesome cool (as opposed to great cool).
Just be really cautious when using detpacks. They have a <i>large</i> area of effect. You can't just use them as impromptu grenades as you can with the HL satchels.

The lag comes from people hosting it on their listenservers.

edit: forlorn, if you think plan 9 from outer space was bad, watch "Glen or Glenda" one of his earlier movies. It's completely awfull. This is a movie about transvestisism released in the 50 or 60's in the US, it has an irrelevant and super phoney sex scene that doesn't appear to have anything to do with anything in the middle of it, it has Bella Lugosi saying some of the most rediculuous things you've ever heard in a creapy voice("PULL ZE STRING!!! PULL ZE STRING!!!11" completely out of the blue amongst other senseless dialog), if you like b-movies this is just a masterpiece. The fact that it wasn't intended to be complete and utter crap makes it so much more funny.
This mod is so refreshing... so much fresh meat <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> Though the zombies are slow , they can prove to be very sneaky due to the lot of dark places in ZP maps.
Ammo is still a bit too scarce in most maps , so the ammo sharing functions are rarely used. Maps should have weapons and their respective ammo far apart , but in greater quantities.
Nevertheless , teamwork can have mighty effects. Human ladders lets players reach safe places , to hide there or to catch a survivor. Long range / short range combos can keep zombies at bay until there is no ammo left.
This is one "hilariously atmospheric" mod , with omnipresent fear on the human side (more so than in NS , it has horror settings after all) and much sadistic joy for the zombie players. The last killing scene offers so much comical relief... the ZP counterpart of "chuckle" is the "panic" key : distorted screams as if you were about to die (which is usually pretty much true) , catching the attention of your teammates and entertaining everyone.

There isn't supposed to BE much ammo lying around. The survivros aren't intended to have much of a chance at all, unless they're very good at sticking and working together, and kill the original zombie. Once about 1/4 of the server is on Zombie, the game grows into critical mass. It's almost hopeless for the survivors, with the current system.
Expect a better 'survivor win condition' in a future patch. It was kicked out the door as-is because a release date was announced, and people were getting irritating, asking if it was ready. :b

"It's only explosives. What harm could it do - "
BOOM
I'll run one off my PC (and it wont be a listen server).
It should be up in a bit, i'll post the specs once i get everything working right.
One question though; is ZP VAC compatible?
But, man, this is so much fun =D

I installed Booster and tweaked some settings so there shouldn't be so much lag or bad fps.
Also, of the players i've asked playing, none of them complained of lag or bad fps.
