The Forest

Anyone else picked this up and tried it yet? I got it last night and it's pretty freakin' great so far, despite all the bugs lol (it's literally only in v0.01 alpha). I like to think of the game as a cool hybrid of DayZ, Crysis (because CryENGINE and stuff :d), and Minecraft because of all of the survival and horror elements in the game.

I highly recommend people check it out. :)

I've been following it for a few months. Now that it's released, I think I'll wait until some people do playthroughs of it before I but it.

I'm a huge fan of the survival-horror genre and that game looks pretty good, I'll most likely pick it up when it goes on sale.

Well i could spend $15 on a single game now, or wait until a steam sale and get five games for the same price

Actually yeah, I guess that does make sense with the Summer sale just around the corner. :o

If this game goes on sale, be sure to post here to tell me! :P

EDIT: Well, after watching people stream it for a few days, I went ahead and forked over the 15 bucks. It's downloading now!

Great! Hope you enjoy it, heho. Don't bother trying to save your game, though, seeing as how the save functionality's currently broken.
