so why i brought this up is that one of my friends said that generation zero disc is rare to find.
and i was intrested if you guys have encountered any of them, not from the internet.
i bought it from the shop from what i remember. ( it was 3-4 years ago when i bought it. )

where did you buy it?
  • xbox disc from internet
  • playstation disc from internet
  • pc/steam from internet
  • xbox from a shop
  • playstation from a shop
  • pc/steam from a shop

I didn’t even know physical copies existed - but so it would seem…

I saw them in a few select shops back in the day. I wish I had bought a copy, alas.

I went for Steam instead. :cry:

I got my GZ Physical copy in October 2019.
Actually it wasnt that rare, at least not for PS4.
But you guys need to understand something.
Games like GZ usually only last 1 year in stores, their numbers are never too high, so its normal its almost impossible to find a sealed copy right now .
I cant find sealed copies of most pre 2019 games, unless they are AAA titles or had game of the year and upgrade editions.

I bought the Xbox Collectors Edition online (from Amazon I believe) and the PlayStation version from a local independent store.

Steam, Xbox Live and PSN digital versions all bought from their respective marketplaces.

Yes, I bought it 5 times. :wink:

On Steam you can download an older copy of the application by specifying the correct Steam manifest in the Steam console. I have a backed-up copy of the old April 2020 update and am currently playing it (the Alpine Unrest DLC was installed automatically as well, nice surprise).

Well well, I happen to have one disc version Generation Zero For PS4 but the case is a bit damaged but the disc is intact and works. I bought it the first time I saw it.

9

I got mine in 2019 when the game came out at Walmart lol, it’s in perfect condition

10

I was quite surprised that the alpine unrest was the starter island when it came out

I have two boxed PC (Steam) games. Unfortunately the disc in the game is just the basic installer then it switches to downloading the data files for the latest version via steam.

I would love to have an original copy of the game pre base assaults etc.

:thinking: not quite sure that’s a good idea…
Which one came first? The base or the experimental weapons? N i heard long ago, there’s no stealth bar n awareness direction, ticks n runners r wa~~y deadlier even compare to rivals.

13

IIrc the first base building and base defense came along with experimental ammo schematics.
The first experimental weapons came much earlier, but I don’t know when. When I started playing, some already were there.

Edit:
Experimental weapons already came in october 2019.

If I remember right I started in October 2019 and I can confidently tell you there were a lot of things that were so much better, and the combat being hard was because back then it was supposed to be more of an actual survival game. You weren’t really suppose to have thousands of adrenaline shots, and you weren’t supposed to have crazy overpowered weapons until the end of the game. It is definitely harder and, the inventory system is very strange compared to what it is now but I do prefer the old version. Only bad thing is that you can’t prone

Have you tried using them with your Internet turned off?

That heard much like a co-op mech zombie survival version of CoD :smirk: n it definitely not friendly to solo players. If that’s when i first played GZ, i probably quit long ago :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: But, well, i usually check for videos n topics before buying a game, so it’s usually not the game’s design n concept but the game’s bug that dissapointed me.

Yeah, you probably can’t expect me to join GZ if i didn’t play GZ before 2025 :sweat:

====== off-topic ======
One exceptional do hold me back from some games even though i actually love their design n mechanism pretty much :expressionless: Drag-on Dragoon (or Drakengard for english version) series n Nier series. Played through DoD2, n with whole story line n all endings + some flashback from DoD1, i hold n wait for reviews of DoD3, after that, i get their style n decided to stay away from their group. That’s also what i worried when i have my first glance of Nier design n mech, n i’m right :expressionless: bye-bye for Niers, too. I didn’t seen much guys whose story lines of all their games so heartbreaking :expressionless:

A separate and free DLC that just auto installs now.
