addedChoose among 7 different humans and one Zombie. You will get to a Train Station (Lobby) where you can interact with other players and wait for additional players. You will be able to enter an alias instead of a login or Steam account and that's what it will show on the chat. There's a limit of 19 players per round. However, before you go into the actual match, one of you will become a 'Player Zombie' different from the Zombie player. If you become a Zombie in this way, your skin will turn a different color tone from what you initially expected. Some new rules: Humans should not shoot at each other. Humans can shoot Zombies, Zombie player or 'Player Zombie'. There's some level of mistrust between players because you don't know exactly who has become a zombie. Zombie players can shoot anyone, they have no way of knowing :) A radiation wall will start moving in a the area where you can stay as a player will be reduced. A radioactive icon will show next to your health and it will start to decrease. To avoid it, you need to become aware of its location and avoid it at all costs. Some areas in the initial Train Station might take you to different areas of the game, players left in isolated areas will be grouped into the area with more players. An 'ALIVE' counter will show you how many players are still alive. You will be given an award if you're the only one left!
