Hey !
In real life, i'm a linux system engineer, happily living with my fiancé in our small house, doing weird shit on linux and some permaculture in the garden. I'm also a huge motorbike fan!

I'm a communty manager on a web based 600+ playerbase roleplay game.
I got kinda used to deal with immature &/or mad people, while being myself pretty chill.
 
I've also been playing ZS for quite a long time, between 2009 & 2014! 
See ya later

If they are struggling to kill them that's a nice thing imo It means headcrabs are decent. I don't want to let the humans win too easily

Hi greenies !
A new public demo for Zombie Survival : Redeemed Edition is scheduled for the following dates :
Friday, May 14th at 19:00:00 GMT time to Wednesday, May 19th 23:59:59 GMT
(Yes it's a little bit longer than the previous one ).
 
Server IP will be : 5.2.65.5:22054
You can type connect 5.2.65.5:22054 into your Gmod console if you can't see the server in the list.
 
We're currently running a private demo for testing purposes, and there may be a few minor bugs remaining after that one, but I will create another thread in which you can post feedback and bug reports in case you encounter some of them.
 
What won't be part of the demo / isn't available yet :
- In the F1 menu : side buttons (only the Armory, Greenshop and Stats menu can be used for now).
- VIP Shop / VIP status
- Bug report tool.
- Mr Green Gaming account linking
 
Progress / rewards :
- You will get your greencoins from the last demo if you were present, as well as the Prime Undead title which is given to everyone who played during the first demo as well as this one (we will give the title in batches, so it may not appear the first time you join, feel free to PM / ask on Discord or here if you don't have it).
- Your achievements / titles / icons / greencoins will be saved after the demo and will be restored for the final release, though this may not be the case for the player stats which are prone to be reset.
 
Hope to see you there !

Another quick update as of today 15/04/2021
 
DONE
- Masteries system (what once was called "challenges"), see below.
- Icon designs (well, I've got some of them in the game, Mansen is doing the others)
- Added the "sometimes I dream about cheese" and other voices for human players
- Added a few zombie skins and a few new guns
 
TODO
- Polish the masteries and make sure they all work (we will need a demo for this, I'm afraid ) + do a menu for displaying information about them
- Admin menu + fix the chat commands
- Headcrab fixes
- Minor fixes / changes
 
 
So, what are masteries ?
It's basically a weapon / zombie class levelling system. See, humans have to kill to get new guns, that's a vertical levelling. More kills = better guns.
With masteries it's an horizontal levelling. You can now improve every weapon to increase some of their stats (damage, firing rate, amount of ammo regen and such) and unlock a "unique" bonus, depending on the weapon (well,  some weapons currently share similar bonuses, but this could be changed later).
The same goes for the zombies. Each class can be improved to increase some stats (health, speed, damage etc) and they get a specific perk at the end.
The stats aren't changed that much, we're talking about small numbers. It's not supposed to be gamebreaking, but it will help players that have difficults getting new weapons or that would like to stick with specific ones.
Also, the stats increase and perks are weapon-dependent. You need to equip the weapon to have the stats and perks active.
 
Weapons and classes have a maximum of 5 levels. When getting a weapon or picking a zombie class for the first time, you start at level 1.
Levels aren't permanent, starting a new game/map will reset everything to zero. It's like a MOBA where you have to level up your character.
 
Earning XP is usually done by killing players, but for the sake of accessibility, it can also be earned through damaging others : damaging a player gives you a small amount of XP. Killing a player gives you a fixed amount of XP + the XP earned from damaging them.
Zombies can also earn XP by damaging/breaking func_breakable props (breakable walls, planks), and they get a few XP whenever a human dies.
It's still work in progress so this may change a bit, but you see the point.
 
Just a few examples of masteries, to give you an idea :
Usp45 : Lvl2 = precision increase, lvl3 = damage increase. lvl4 = more ammo from ammo regen, lvl 5 = heals you 5 HP when you kill a zombie
Mp5 : Lvl2 = Precision increase, lvl3 = firing rate increase, lvl4 = damage increase, lvl5 = You have a 15% damage resistance when infliction is over 75%
Zombie : Lvl2 = health increase, lvl3 = speed increase, lvl4 = propkill force increased, lvl5 = 30% chances to respawn on your death spot, maximum twice (this was in the original ZS but for some reason it got removed, so I brought it back here )
Fast Headcrab : lvl 2 & 3 = health increase, lvl4 = speed increase, lvl5 = perma regeneration (2HP / second)
 
When is the next demo ?
Hopefully soon
I wanted to do this at the end of the month but this is going to be tight, I'll post about it whenever the game will be ready for a demo.
 

I'm working on the "challenge" system at the moment. I'll unveil the details later although I've posted about it on discord
 
But anyway, if everything goes as fast as I would like, we'll probably have a new demo by the end of April. It may be sooner, or later.

Hi fellow Greenies ! 
You may know it, but Lejorah and Lucker are working on a new version of ZS which is a continuity of the 2012 Mr Green ZS.
On my side, I've been working on another project too !
Thanks to Deluvas (RIP mate), I had access to the 2010 version of ZS. From there, I have been working on a complete re-coding of a 2008-2009-styled Zombie Survival :
Zombie Survival : Redeemed Edition
 by Mr.Green
This is a work-in-progress project, so it isn't finished as of today (18/09/20), but you can find below some information and a first small gameplay footage (don't mind the AI players, they're dumb ).
https://streamable.com/m2cno6
 
What makes ZS:RE different from the current Zombie Survival forks ?
For a long time, ZS has turned from a timer-based game to a wave-based one.
Also, cading has taken a proeminent role. Players basically had to make the best barricade possible and survive 6 waves of enemies. They had to buy guns through a shop or crates. Zombie classes were unlocked at each wave.
I'm not saying that this is a bad mod or anything, but I have always dreamed of replaying the ZS we had around 2008-2009. The one that felt easier, had a faster pace and felt like an arcade game.
A game of Redeemed Edition runs like the ones you could play around 2008-2009 : You spawn as a human, you have to survive for 20 mins and you get new guns by killing zombies.
Someone is chosen to be a zombie and from there starts the game
Barricading still exists, but it's a minor aspect. You're encouraged to run and gun when possible
Zombie classes are unlocked through infliction. That means that if a % of players has been killed at some time, new classes are available for use.
How many zombie classes are there ?
There are 8 classes that you can play : Zombie, Headcrab, Fast Headcrab, Wraith, Fast Zombie, Poison Headcrab, Poison Zombie, Chem Zombie.
I don't plan to add new classes in the near future, but maybe variations of existing classes.
How do I get new weapons ?
As a human, you get new weapons by killing zombies. Just like the good old time
You start with a pistol (USP-45 / P-228) and a melee weapon (knife/crowbar).
Each X kills you are a granted a new weapon, which is more powerful than the previous one you had.
You keep all the weapons you have, and you can also pick up the ones left by your dead teammates.
How does redeeming works ?
As a zombie, after killing 8 humans (or 6 with the Fast Redeem upgrade) you can either redeem automatically or by pressing F2. You can choose if you want to enable the auto-redeem in the options.
Will there be things to unlock ?
For now, this isn't implemented but I'm planning to add in-game achievements to unlock (original ones that were here 10 years ago + new ones).
I'd also like to add titles tied to these achievements and maybe nameplates or player icons that you can get in a similar fashion.
Ultimately, I'd also like to add unlockable skins for zombies but this is just an idea at the moment, nothing has been decided yet.
Will there be a Green Shop ?
Yes. You will be able to buy hats, upgrades, and - given that I have implemented them - namesplates/player icons.
Can I propkill humans ? 😆
Yes, you can throw tires / plastic cans / whatever at humans and get some easy brains
When will ZS : RE be available ?
I can't give you a release date yet, because there are still some stuff to do. For now the game is playable-ish but is missing some key features, a backend, and needs some fixes regarding animations.
I'm hoping to release an alpha/demo at the end of october, but this isn't a guaranteed date. I can't work at full-time on this due to IRL work.
I will post updates in this thread when I have some news to give, so stay tuned !

Time for a quick update, today 09-03-2021 :
 
DONE :
- Achievements / achievement system : all the original ones are there + added a shitton of new ones that are earned in different ways (killing, finishing maps, doing specific actions etc). There are around 200 achievements now, and maybe a bunch of new ones could be added later
- Reward unlocking system : getting an achievement can unlock a title and/or player icon
- Titles implementation
- Player icons (in progress, I've got the help of Mansen for the design part)
- Added a few other skins / toys in the shop
 
Next TODOs :
- Add the icon designs
- Polish the existing upgrades / add a few new upgrades
- Work on a challenge system (to be defined yet)

I have to say I am pleasently suprised by how it looks like now and look forward to playing it with people soon. At the very least I have to follow my nostalgic feelings to a gamemode I used to play so much

Fellow greenies, I'm bearer of bad news because I have learned that Deluvas passed-away in January.
Not sure if there are many old ZS players left here, but you probably do know him if you are one of them.
Deluvas was a good ZS players, but also an admin, a developer on Mr Green ZS and a good friend to some of us.
I made this topic so you can leave a small word or anything for him, it will probably remain here, in this dying subforum but as he was part of our community I think he deserves a little something.
 
To me he was a really cool guy, I had fun playing with him and all the  EU gang 10 years ago, this is sad that he is not here anymore.
He was easily among the best players at some point.
May he eat 6 brains so he can get redeem and get some kills with the Comeback bonus !
 

Rest in peace Zombie Survival.
 
EDIT : I'll write something bigger & smarter later.
