Like the bubonic plague itself, survival sandbox The Black Death appeared out of nowhere. Armed with nothing more than a surgical mask, we sent Gareth Harmer to EGX Rezzed with strict instructions to find out more.

    Still haven't read anywhere if this is just full open world PVP, like people will be able to steal your houses and mass amounts of PK or if it will be controlled PVE/PVP? Games like this are wonderful until you get someone has nothing better to do all day but kill new players as they log in..

    Surviving Early Access. Sometimes I wonder if that isn't true with some of these early access titles.

    Help me Bioware, you're my only hope.

    Is ToR going to be good? Dude it's Bioware making a freaking star wars game, all signs point to awesome. -G4tv MMo report.

    In the towns, the NPC guards clamp down on PvP. Out in the countryside, anything goes. I think that your house, and anything inside it, is safe.

    Unless you forget to lock the door, then anyone can go in.

    So far pretty bad experience, can only go better ;)
    Joined server, settings went to windowed, couldn't change back to full screen. Restarted game, couldn't join server. Restarted game, cursor disappeared ingame menus. Picked up 3 berries, couldn't eat them, couldn't collect anymore items.
    Clicked quit game- thinking it would take me back to server list - exits game.

    Been playing this for a few hours now and even though the game is still not 100% I love it, the atmosphere ( creepy backalleys in the city, dirt, corpses covered with sheets which when you walk over you'll likely catch the plague ) is exactly how it should be. And the freedom of what you do is so refreshing, I saw two guys entering each house in a street to check for food and I hid in one of the houses they hadn't entered yet, I waited on top of the stairs with my sword drawn...when they entered the house one of them wanted to run up the stairs, saw me on top of it, froze, turned around and ran off like a rabbit. Yea, it's unfinished, still has bugs but I love the game already.

    I give them points for not claiming 100 people makes it a MMO.
