I didn't see the news on the Dead Frontier forums, but there was more great news about the game. It seems like he is going to release a very playable and enjoyable beta of it sometime next week. The next question you need to get an answer to is, "How long is a week in the Dead Frontier?"

"After seeing the response you all gave, I've decided that I'm going to release the game as Beta without co-op or pvp action (but with trading), either this week or next week. I'm not going to give an exact day this time around, but I'm hoping it will be the 14th. I will 100% guarantee on pain of my balls being thrown in a blender, that it will be released no later than the end of next week (though I'm not saying which timezone I'm using)."

Below is a list of things you can do when it is first released.

Kill zombies and co (?)
Kill a couple of bosses
Team up with 1 other player (their character, but under AI control)
Explore a large city with interiors
Scavenge for items
Trade with other players
Chat with other players
Level up and spend stat points
Use all profession abilities as described before

After the release, he is going to do what any other programmer/developer does.... RELEASE MORE STUFF AND KILL BUGS!!

Now if only my F5 key will survive til next week! full article.

I still haven't decided who I will be in the game. I would love to be the engineer/Mr. Fix It type guy. I'll have to take a look at the list again. Decisions, decisions.

Anyone else gonna hop into this game and try it out?

I tried it for a few minutes until the server crashed again.

Whether it was a server fix by the admin, or too many Zombie Apocalypse lovers logging in, we'll never know.

It seems to feel like a great game. RPG style with action segments. Way too many zombies though.... But that just means more experience. I was out for about 10 minutes and am level 3 already.

September 2008 is the full release date for DF
