HordeZ is a VR zombie shooter that's more like a buggy, repetitive snoozefest. The graphics are so bad, you'll think you're playing on a potato. The controls are so clunky, you'll feel like you're trying to dance the tango with a zombie. And don't even get me started on the AI. These zombies are dumber than a box of rocks.
At £12.99, HordeZ is a total rip-off. It's basically a VR tech demo that's been stretched out to fill a few hours. If you're looking for a fun and immersive zombie survival game, look elsewhere. There are plenty of better options out there that won't leave you feeling like you've been bitten by a bad case of boredom.
I suspect the positive reviews are from when VR was new and people had not tried it before. This game is way to simplistic, you dont even have control over movement. You float on a slow moving platform and shoot at zombies that show up, similar to an old time crisis arcade, only in time cirsis you can dodge and taker cover and it is actually fun. Trying this game in 2018 is one of the worst games i have tested, and the positive reviews are a mystery to me.
The game is sorta fun but its one of the most poorly made vr games i have played. Also, do not get this if you have an oculus rift. Even though the version of the game that is on the oculus rift store works with the rift, the steam version doesn't and the developer couldn't be bothered updating it.
This game was good back when VR was new and there were no games available. Unfortunately, it has not been updated in a long time. Many of the levels are buggy, with enemy pathing issues, and graphical glitches. It's ultimately still playable, but it really needs some more polish.
One of the initial attractions to the game was co-op play, but the game is too easy with more than a single player. Even with two players, the hardest difficulty isn't that challenging. Meanwhile, with three or four players it's a joke as you can just fire in all directions at once, resulting in absolutely no challenge. If you do play this game, I'd recommend playing it solo which results in a much more tense and atmospheric experience.
The devs claim to still be working on the game, and that an update is coming. If so, it's sorely needed as this game has bugs that need to be fixed. Until that time I'd recommend sticking to newer VR Zombie games, which at this point are much more polished.
6 out of 10
I bought HordeZ when it came out and though OMG this is amazing. A year on now I'm over the initial OMG everything VR is is totally amazing, I have a more mature view of VR titles. I really like the on rails shooting element in this game it works well in this context and the pacing is good. There's plenty of levels with very different environments, all good stuff, great variety.
Now the bad bit. The zombies, a bit terrible really. The game has only a few zombie models which are duplicated, which in it self is a bit poor, but worse they march towards you in a pack completely in step like marching soldiers, which just looks rubbish. The models themselves aren't great either, they really need better animation and detail.
This is the thing, so much of HordeZ is really good, but. And it's a significant but, the zombies are just a bit rubbish and it does spoils the game overall. Being a zombie shooter, the zombies are a rather fundamental feature of the game. Based on the asking price I can't recommend.
The in game experience feels good, very responsive. A key to playing at the higher difficulties is to make sure you are always picking up the drops. I had a lot of fun already and will continue to do so for many more hours.
Cons- Sound is not optimized so you don't know which direction new waves are coming from just by sound.
That's it, I love this game.
Other games do similar better. Given the positive reviews for this game, I expected more. The graphics are poor, the game-play stale. For me, a waste of time that I won't get back.
Any VR on-rails game is tough for me to buy believability-wise, and the awful gameplay and strange scale of everything makes the whole experience distracting and the exact opposite of "immersive." It's like a Disneyland ride, far-fetched and painful to sit through, but you paid all the money and waited in line so long you may as well enjoy what you can.
There are so many better games for the Vive out there to spend your $20 on, I'd only recommend this game if you want something really basic to kill time with and you LOVE zombies.
Honestly this game was so bad I'm suspicious of how it has such a high rating.
The zombies, besides the obviously horrible graphics, have such poor animations and react so poorly it renders this game completely not fun.
The shooting and combat in general has little to no feeling to it and is completely unacceptable in a VR game. Shooting them triggers a generic flinch animation regardless of where or how you hit them, chunks of some grey stuff comes off when shooting them but the model doesn't change, and the sword does not react to their body at all besides their head (which causes them to explode into different colored chunks of random bodies).
There is very little content and what little content there is quite frankly looks horrible and isn't fun. It's just so low quality in every aspect.
I know there is not much good zombie content out for VR at the moment but please do yourself a favor and don't settle for this garbage. This is one of the few games in all my years I've tried to get refunded (over 1,000 games in 10 years).
After having this game for months now, it's still one my favourite games HOWEVER, getting weapons via arcade mode was a great idea but it is also very fidgety and works half the time.
Online multiplayer works only 20% of the time now, and sometimes after 5 minutes you are booted off. It's gone from love to hate. We have 2 Vives and like to Multiplay, I think it's best if you can add LAN, otherwise this game is horrible. Single player, not a big deal but Multiplayer is where it's at.
Arizona Sunshine started out terrible for multiplayer connectivity, but they sorted their crap out real quick and it's super stable in Horde and Campaign mode. C'mon HordeZ, sort it out.
I don't have a lot of time in it, but what I've played so far, pretty fantastic.
Ask my wife if it's immersive. She decided this was the first game she would play in VR.
Within a minute of the game starting, she ran to the wall, started screaming, and then started crying.
That, my friends, is VR done right.
Im writing this review after only 13min of playing this game and I can say that this game is scary as hell for me! I even punched corner of my tv with vive controller.
I passed this game up for several days because I thought the screenshots just didn't look good. Like other reviews have said, the screenshots just don't do this game any justice. I kept coming back to the store page and then finally I decided to buy it because of the reviews.
It's absolutely worth it, it's by far the best of the VR zombie games and the only one that delivers a full game experience imo. The levels are varied and the weapons are fun to use, it's also a very scary experience. I had to quit out of the game the first couple times I tried it, you eventually get used to the zombies running up to you but it still makes me jump pretty frequently.
I don't review many games but I was so on the fence about this one before I tried it like I'm sure many others are, so let me add to what everyone else says and just ignore the screenshots. If you want a house of the dead/left 4 dead type of game then this is it and it's a lot of fun.
First thing to do is get this game if you vive
Second thing to do is get this game if you vive
Third thing to do is , I think you get it.
The video does not do it justice, did not give it a second look until I played it at a friend house.
Best shooter/crawler on the vive so far.
Look this is my first review.
Going back to play in VR.
This game is a perfect example of VR does not translate well to 2D trailers. I almost gave this one a miss until someone posted an impassioned review of how much fun they had. Picked up Hordz and it is now one of my favorites. When demoing the Vive I usually bust out Hordz and so far all have excitedly enjoyed it. When ever I have people back over, Hordz always get a request for a return visit. It really is good fun. I'm still working at getting good enough to make it all the way through on hard. Fuck me the difficulty ramps up awesomely. The fact that the game has gotten some significant support after the fact and some cool little features (the zombies looking at you is creepy as hell) make this game easily worth the money.
UPDATE: After ther latest patch this game is EVEN better. Very worth the buy. They online play works really well. This weekend I was able to play Co-Op with a friend and some random people without issue. Very fun to crank up the difficulty and play with others.
This is perhaps the most fun game available for purchase today on ANY system.
-Room scale VR is incredible! Game slowly moves you through the area on a floating pad, but you can still move around as much as you want in the size of the room you've dedicated to room scale VR, allowing you to physically dodge and run from zombies.
-Graphics/sound are fantastic
-You can either use guns/grenades and use a magnet gun to "suck" in ammo boxes as they fall around you, or (my favorite) you can just equip two katana swords to ninja your way through the area.
-$15.99 is an absolute steal. I would have paid $50 for this game.
The only possible improvement the developers could make is adding gamepad support so when the Virtuix Omni treadmill launches later this year, we can move about in the play area as far as we want to without worrying about hitting walls.
A+!
I saw this game pop up on recommended items, and figured what the heck, I'll check it out. Man, am I glad I did. I thought the models were very detailed, the playstyle was arcade-ish but had enough realism to scare the s&*t out of me. I only played for about 10 minutes before heading to bed tonight (HAD to write this before bed if that's any indication of the impression it left on me).
I also always try to point out the good with the bad, and I'll say that it felt like switching between guns was a little clunky. Your thumb needs to be directly over the item, rather than just in the quadrant where the item is. My suggestion would be to make it an area selector, and not item selector.
Aside from that, great game and worth every penny. Buy it.
This game wins my first ever Steam Review!! I just felt I should take a minute to show this title some love. I received my Vive on Monday, 5/2/16 and spent a little time checking out the bundled software and The Lab, since it was free. From the moment I put on the headset I have been completely blown away by the VR experience. This stuff is really cool!! So after a few hours of time, spread out over a few days, checking out the free stuff I had, I decide to buy my first game. Out of the games on my wishlist I decided to go with HordeZ, on nothing more than wondering what it would be like to shoot some zombies on the Vive.
I truly wasn't prepared for the experience I was about to have. LoL, To be frank, it scared the shit out of me!! In a good way though, kind of like that haunted house scary during Halloween when you get frightened and then have a laugh. The first time I started, it startled me so bad I snatched the headset off and sat on my couch laughing at myself as I drank a beer and regrouped. Ok... Now I know what's up, let's do this! I strapped back in and went for round 2!!! If you'd like to see me make an ass out of myself, I recorded it on my phone and uploaded it. Be warned, I curse a lot. lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxrzfXpBlb4
I just want to say that so far, this has been the defining VR experience for me. The immersion, presence, fear, nervousness, it was all SO REAL and I loved it. Watching videos just can't convey the feeling of being strapped in to this thing. It looked and felt so unbelievably real that I think I will no longer make comments about preparing for the zombie apocalypse because this game taught me that I'm a big scaredy cat!! lol
Good job on this game guys. It looks great and plays really well. There were a few moments when the moving platform made my legs feel a little wobbly, but never really gave me any severe motion sickness. This mostly happened when the platform started or stopped. I only mention that as an observation, not a complaint as it really wasn't a problem for me. But I know some people or more prone to the motion sickness thing!!
10/10 Should probably put down puppy potty pads while playing this.
Great game and improved with update!!!
Best Zombie VR Shooter yet!!! Great price!I love that it moves! Even if it is on rails. The pacing seems just about right, although at times the enemy spawn locations are not timed correctly and enemies spawn in unrealistic locations. I know it's a fantasy game so how could it be unrealistic? Well, if I have my back to the wall and an enemy spawns on top of me...I'd say that is unfair. I also played almost half the level with only 5 zombies attacking me. There are also glitches with zombies running thru the door of the first level. BTW, grenades work way better when thrown underhand. Is that a tracking issue?
So... Things done well:
- Moving health level to controller is a great choice. When I first played this game I didn't even know it was on the floor. Having it on my controller is great. For added realism, could it be placed on the player's wrist, like a fake watch?
- Speed of platform is perfect.
- Sword play is a great feeling!!! Although I don't feel the zombies always react appropriately.
- Increased size of zombies is defintely more intimidating! Especially for shorter players.
Current faults:
- A better way of incorporating rectangular play spaces to always be in line with the play space.
- When enemies get too close I see thru them instead of them stopping upon contact with me. When completely surrounded I sometimes have to shoot my self to kill them.
- Grenades don't always explode the portals. Is there a secret?
- The gear grabber sometimes gets stuck in the on postion, or lingers on even after I've switched weapons.
Needs/Wants:
- I'd prefer the weapon select to be a simple swipe, not a swipe and a click.
- A better way of incorporating rectangular play spaces to always be in line with the majority of the level's hallways. For this game I turn the floor chaperone on so that I'm not banging my walls.
- I'd like the sword to continue to make impact even when an enemy is dead.
- Decapitation with sword would be awesome sauce!
- Can I shoot the knee caps! It would be great to stop the explosive zombie in its place and then explode at will later with a well timed shot.
[*] Health wrist watch as mentioned above.
I bought this game yesterday, I genuinely enjoy horror genre games, the Clive Barker games, Doom, Resident Evil, whatever. Left4Dead was probably my last really passionate survival game(s) I spent way to much time playing. I am a 40 year old gamer and really don't get rattled by much. Let me just say, I was NOT prepared for how immersive this game was in VR. My very first play session lasted about a min, I got overwhelmed with Zombies and I actually said NOPE and took the headset off. I had to actually mentally prepare myself to go back into this game. I am having a BLAST, despite it being somewhat difficult for me at my current skill level. (can't seem to survive past that first real corner on the normal difficulty level, I really don't care, this game makes you want to keep playing. Highly recommended.
This game shows potential but a few issues stop me coming back for more.
1. The play space moves, it's slow, so not terrible, but it's not great for more than 15mins play. Especially when looking in a different direction than the velocity is heading. FLoating disc under the player doesn't help also, it rotates with in your lower periphery.
2. Audio is not spacialised, it gives no clues as to which direction zombies are in and how far away. The audio in general feels pretty weak.
3. Weapon feels like it needs a 20 degree tilt to match how you would comfortably hold a vive controller and match other shooting games.
4. Switching weapons is pretty awkward, grabing from over the shoulder would feel much nicer. Just because the controller has buttons doesn't mean you need to use them.
5. Hit effects need some work, the animation and particle effects don't seem to fire on every hit. Makes weapons feel less real.
