the worst part of aftermath is after you've bought all of the knowledge upgrades. by that point you've likely already reached the final area and your sense of progression slows way down. i love the game and keep going back to it every so often for a maxed out difficulty run, but it's never as good as the first 10 to 15 hours. it's a truly good game that feels like it could be great with just a tiny bit more polish and a bit more endgame content. to me, it's easily worth the price as it stands, but i can't help but hope for some dlc that makes it the game that it feels like its so close to being.
tfw I managed to beat the game with the first ever survivor, very poorly armed because the rushing but end game loot drops are insane enough to give you a chance at the final arena
This is great to know. Been eyeing this game for awhile now and is often on sale for $12.50 or so. Even for good 10-15 hours, assuming I’m over it by then, sounds like it may be worth it. Thanks for taking the time to
I played Dead Zone on Kongregate. It was amazing. I remember as a leader, I had a machine gun and every class for every purpose. I even tried raiding some of the player's base. It was much harder than I thought, because of the fire suppression. I also had events from Christmas, Easter and 4th of July, good times. Everything was expensive as heck tbh. Sadly, the creators of The Last Stand: Dead Zone announced that there was no other way to keep the game online, sooo they shut down for good. :(
I wish for The Last Stand: Aftermath to add more contents. We really must support this game. I do want to play more, but already beat the game and got everything what I wanted. We need more updates! The game is too good to be forgotten.
This game is like the combination of Dying light and project zomboid! You are infected, need some kind of meds to not turn, fight off the medical team keeping you away from freedom just like in dying like and on the way explore the ruins, gather materials and slaughter zombies just like project zomboid! i love it
best beginner upgrades are infection spread redaction, knowledge points increase, radio upgrade and bag capacity. With it you'll have much more time to explore and place to loot also you'll gain upgrade points faster and level up without spending precious batteries. second best upgrades are melee weapon durability and chance to find ammo. after that feel free to upgrade whatever you want
Holy shit thank you for mentioning Dead Zone! I've been trying to remember the name for months now and my 10 year old self never realized it was part of this franchise
To think this series inspired one of the best zombie shooter in history. This hurts how low it goes under everyone's radar and for sad good reason......
I started DF in 2007. I was 8 or 9 years old. I remember admin posted df 3d was free for everyone but of course, we were Rick rolled. Plan on starting up again, ill always come back to my childhood game.
i haven’t forgotten about what last stand dead zone was like it was my introduction into base building games and i haven’t played a base building game nearly as good ever since and i am really starting to think that it’s impossible last stand aftermath is not bad but nothing will top last stand dead zone i was hoping that someone would revive the game and i had hope seeing that the image on the cover of the game is the exact same one from last stand dead zone but sadly i have realized my dream will never come true as they usually don’t
This is essentially death road to Canada not to say anything negative about either and they are a bit different but I think it'll be good for a quicker series like others said once you play through and get all your upgrades it'll give such a different feel so I think it be amazing
I wish listed this game a while ago, And bought it just yesterday. Played it, Had a Ton of fun for the 3 hours I played it for, but never looked at or saw the reviews. I found the gameplay pretty fresh from the other rogue lites I've played recently. And this game just Scratches an Itch in the back of my head For Post Apocalyptic Zombie games
the sad part of this is that most people can't even play the game cause of a bug that crashes after a black screen at the intro so most fans can't even try out aftermath because of it i'm surprised you were able to play this game unless this is pre recorded gameplay but the developers haven't said anything about fixing the problem for years. It's sad but anyways the one game I miss is dead zone it was just really addicting to play even when you didn't choose to buy in game items you could make it pretty far without paying
the only game I haven't 100% completed (or played, for that matter) in this entire series is deadzone. I really, really want it to come back so I can play that too.
I was just hoping for an open world version of this. I do like the roguelike element but around this when it first came out there were plenty of them. Heres to hoping the next game is a bigger.
I don't play zombie games anymore. In fact, I don't play games nowadays. But still misses loading up the gears, filling gas in the car and going for missions.. living in a neighborhood infested with zombies and enemies. Deadzone❤
tbh for me the only miss for this game was the lack of coop. but dont get me wrong I own the game and already have 100hrs played time. I've already cleared finished the game 3 times the game dont really go stale really fast and replayability was great but once you've been running it down on each run it just feels lonely. having someone to cooperate while scavenging each area would make it a lot fun.
Project Zomboid is what I've expected from sequel to Union City in all honesty. Aftermath is kinda okay, but it really didn't fill the shoes of the predecessor which is a bit shame.
Ah yes, the game which turns from barely scraping by for survival to a fun romp through the countryside. Just be wary of one hit kill crap. Also, the M82A1 is a disappointment but the SR-110 and the Flamethrower are OP. EDIT: Because the SR-110 ignores armor.
Was trying to play the demo right now, and in all my life, I've never had an issue where trying to play a game would give me a literal black screen after the intro text (which seems to be a long running issue within the community, and a fix was promised by the DEVs within a pinned thread on Steam). Just the buggiest hunk of cow manure among all the cheap, soulless cash grabs I've played up to this point.
1. The game's graphic is uninspiring, compare to the strong art style of the previous games, Aftermath just looks like an ordinary indie game. 2. Although the melee feel satisfying, the gunplay in Aftermath is just painfully mediocre, there is basically no knockback on your character, and the sound design is lacklustre. 3. The game doesn't feel finished, especially on how empty the late game content is, what you experience in your first 3 runs basically are what all you will get from this game, they show their full hand way too early and no hidden ace to back it up. 4. Rogue-like (arguably) just doesn't has that many popularity compare to other zombie game format, I really hope they would go back to the survive adventure style of the first 3 games, like PZ

They should add endless mode

I wish they'd bring Dead Zone back. I spent so much time on that game...
Heck no, that was just them trying to get people to buy in game crap.
like... all free games? :D

@@BrassowGaming of course they did, it was a free game, all free game do that
back when i was in school, union city and dead zone had me hooked, id come home, ditch homework to play

Union city was my jam back in school, when the new one came out i jumped on it immediately, one of my favorites honestly

We need more updates!
The game is too good to be forgotten.

This game seems nothing at all like zomboid other then the sameish camera angle and having zombies.
The zombie infection in Dying Light only came up when the story demanded it to, otherwise it's a none factor.
best beginner upgrades are infection spread redaction, knowledge points increase, radio upgrade and bag capacity. With it you'll have much more time to explore and place to loot also you'll gain upgrade points faster and level up without spending precious batteries. second best upgrades are melee weapon durability and chance to find ammo. after that feel free to upgrade whatever you want
Fun Fact: The "zombie jesus" has been a part of the game since early access. A buggy boy that's never been fixed lmao
Holy shit thank you for mentioning Dead Zone! I've been trying to remember the name for months now and my 10 year old self never realized it was part of this franchise
Who knows what comes after math

What shooter?

This is what Dead Frontier 3D should have been like... And I loved spamming Union City out of all the Last Stands cause of customization.
I started DF in 2007. I was 8 or 9 years old. I remember admin posted df 3d was free for everyone but of course, we were Rick rolled. Plan on starting up again, ill always come back to my childhood game.

The Last Stand franchise had a glow up with this game
I really wish Saga of the Dead get this kind of treatment. Both this and Saga of the dead are my Favorite Browser/Flash games from the past❤
One of the few games that had me so hooked I 100%d it in under 10 days, game just gave me so much nostalgia to the old ones and was amazing
This is essentially death road to Canada not to say anything negative about either and they are a bit different but I think it'll be good for a quicker series like others said once you play through and get all your upgrades it'll give such a different feel so I think it be amazing
If I could take this combat system and drop it into Project Zomboid it would be amazing
I hope you check out the warfare game series next. It’s made by the same devs for this series and it’ll soon be brought to steam.
11:57 knowing the comedian said makes it so much funnier
Sadly never managed to play dead zone, but aftermath sure is a blast.
thank you for covering this game! i loved playing it and it was a great game, i love to see it get more attention!🧀
1:05 that mechanic reminds me more of gears of war, in fact it's pretty much the same exact thing.
I wish listed this game a while ago, And bought it just yesterday. Played it, Had a Ton of fun for the 3 hours I played it for, but never looked at or saw the reviews.

Dead Zone was probably the best one I've played in this franchise.
If they could count hours in The last stand union city I’d have hundreds.
the sad part of this is that most people can't even play the game cause of a bug that crashes after a black screen at the intro so most fans can't even try out aftermath because of it i'm surprised you were able to play this game unless this is pre recorded gameplay but the developers haven't said anything about fixing the problem for years.

Wow not even 5 in mins and the game is already living up to its name 1:24
I sure haven't forgotten >:c
I miss deadzone.
Same :(
I've played the demo of this game
the only game I haven't 100% completed (or played, for that matter) in this entire series is deadzone. I really, really want it to come back so I can play that too.
Loved this game beat all of them and played going through every path. Amazing game series and very addictive
I know it's nothing, but it's wild that the active reload mechanic is now only recognized by EA's Battlefront 2 and not Gears of War anymore
Feels like state of decay. Very cool
I wouldn't call the melee combat satisfying, but most other aspects of the game are. Truly a well made game, I wish it got more updates.
they just have to re-release dead zone, even as just solo only, i loved that damn thing
I was just hoping for an open world version of this. I do like the roguelike element but around this when it first came out there were plenty of them. Heres to hoping the next game is a bigger.
This game is soo good but suffers from lack of content. An expansion will greatly increase the appeal of aftermath
I don't play zombie games anymore. In fact, I don't play games nowadays. But still misses loading up the gears, filling gas in the car and going for missions.. living in a neighborhood infested with zombies and enemies.
Deadzone❤
the last game ended open and i felt it needed more
tbh for me the only miss for this game was the lack of coop. but dont get me wrong I own the game and already have 100hrs played time. I've already cleared finished the game 3 times the game dont really go stale really fast and replayability was great but once you've been running it down on each run it just feels lonely. having someone to cooperate while scavenging each area would make it a lot fun.
Thank god he did aftermath lol. I was hoping for this! Love this game so much!
Would love to see story type video of this covering all zones!
Do a full story of it please
That Shane Gillis edit. 😂
currently grinding the music skill on your server while watching this...
just use Knife it durable and really light u can carry multiple knife for Gun wise only use when there's 20 zombie in the same place or during a horde
PLEASE GOD PLEEEEEEEASE MAKE A STORY REVIEW OMG PLEEEEEEASE
No I did not forget it. Best game from Armor games
Edit: this new one does not convince me...I'll continue playing Project Zomboid woth mods❤️
This feels like one of the games that would be even better with co op
How is this game for console ? I wish this game had coop would be fun to play together with someone.
Project Zomboid is what I've expected from sequel to Union City in all honesty. Aftermath is kinda okay, but it really didn't fill the shoes of the predecessor which is a bit shame.
i hope you do some vids on the "decision" series.
Honestly I thought this game was mid AF, as a huge fan of the originals.
Try playing Dead Frontier 2 you might like the game

Sorry for pitching it up then

What is the song in the background i love it
I'd at least 4 videos of the zones. I mean how you gonna say, but wait there's more zones, then not show the zones....😢
I like it how in 1:22 you defend you're self behind cover just like the end of the last stand 2
Love the old memory flashbacks 😂😂😂
Wait! There is one more zombie game similar to this but its fps? Dead frontier 2
Ah yes, the game which turns from barely scraping by for survival to a fun romp through the countryside. Just be wary of one hit kill crap.
Also, the M82A1 is a disappointment but the SR-110 and the Flamethrower are OP.
EDIT: Because the SR-110 ignores armor.

I like how you're already infected and you have to race against the infection taking over.
Do more
