Hey guys. I know a lot of you have been looking forward to ATF5, and I'm here to announce that ATF5 isn't actually what I've been working on.
The ATF5 map was put on hold at about 15% around a month ago, and I've been working on two newer games ever since. The first game I've been helping out with is Vinya's space game. You should check it out sometime. I made the spaceships for him, it's the least I could do for giving ATF all its cool guns.
The other project I've been working on is an entirely new gametype, something a little different from the usual ATF. I haven't quite come up with a name for it yet, but it will be pretty awesome. It will be a zombie apocalypse-oriented, mission-based game. I won't go into too many details quite yet, but what ploop and I have is this:
At the start, 6 or 10 players (we'll decide later, but probably around 8) will be given a home that they own in the main town. You will use money and other collectibles to buy guns, gun upgrades, food and drinks, town upgrades, and home upgrades. Every 3 to 5 minutes, a mission will be selected, and the entire town will be put into a mission. There are tons of missions. For example, the randomizer could select a mission that involves finding gasoline. Along the mission, there will be zombies and other collectible items. If the entire town dies and doesn't make it to the end of the mission to get the gasoline, then the town loses its lights and other gasoline-run items until the next gasoline mission. Other missions may involve deathmatches for prizes, resource races, environment puzzles, simple survival missions, etc.
Ploop and I are working pretty hard on this game. Although it's not the typical ATF game, I hope you guys like the plans! Please, give us your thoughts! :D |

Don't call it ATF5 then? Cause I though the "Flash" in it meant Nuclear and this will be a Zombie type thing,
And the forced missions,maybe just going out and scavenging instead of being forced to do missions?ANd maybe needing to collect goods to reinforce and repair walls maybe? |

| Zombies could be really "Mutants" that don't know too much mutation, but is there. Think hybrid. |

| Sounds like the game Rebuild, with it's own little twist. I'd like to see when it comes out. |

I said in the main post that it's not ATF. It's something new. If you want an image of what the game will be like, imagine the mission(s) of Zombie Tower, with he inventory system of Apocalypse Rising, and the building-style of ATF.
This time around, we might not be using Vinya's guns. Also, there will be NPC shops here and there in the main town in which your scrap shack will be. |

| If you must at least give some time for people to role play like if you are forced give people 10-15-20 minutes before going on a mission. |

How about it'd be nuclear but be in a territory with tons of feral mutants?And maybe have the models of mutants with their own effects?And maybe not forcing people on missions but still having them.Like a button if you want to fight off waves or if you want to do missions inbetween waves,with also my old idea,but this way it can still be called ATF

How About Their is a Little box in the Corner of Your Screen and if you Click it, you'll see all These Missions. How'd you get These Missions? When the People of the Town Want a Mission, you can Decide You'll do it Later. Or you can say "Yes, I'd like to do it now."
This is Just a Simple Idea, I Won't be Suprised to not see it in the Actual Game...

| I know this might sound kinda dumb, but maybe you should make it kinda like a DURING the flash game. Like WHILE the nukes are dropping. You know? I'd kinda like that. |

Pretty good idea, I'd still put in a few morphs though, and also, maybe being able to sell your house to buy a better one? So you start off in a slumish area? And then you can eventually buy some abandoned mansion eventually?
A highway to OT was installed, here's some change for the toll. |

I LOVE all of your work, And fell in love with the series since episode 1, and hope it continues s. But these plans for a new game is AMAZING! I cant wait for this game to be released. Is there a way to stay updated on this kinda stuff...There should be something on ROBLOX for stuff like this. Anyone else agree? Anyways, I will try to stay updated, and play this new AWESOME game! |

| What about a name can be, "Your not alone" I dont know it suits well for zombie games, and kinda well for your theme of you titles. |

I loved your ATF series, my favourite one is After the flash: Snowstorm. I think you should make it a bit like that, with alot of subzones like pre-war city, Hotel, Bank and things like that. I dont think the missions would be a good idea though, I wouldnt want to be forced to a mission randomly when Im in the middle of something or exploring. But I do think the town is a good idea, like somewhere players can stay in the huge map. Another thing, ATF 5 is turning into a tycoon game, can you just make it like the old ones? By that I mean take off the buying guns and house upgrades. I think that you should keep the shops but things will be free though, like put a shop somewhere in the map and if you find it, you get nice unique guns. Thank you. |

Yes. Its good to break away from the norm and make a new game.
But...perhaps you should add something really "out there" so people will not confuse this game with any of the "After the Flash" games.
