NOTD Aftermath 1.2a
Mirror 1 : Click TM server, Malaysia
Mirror 2 : Click UC Berkeley, California (Currently Unavailable)
NOTD Aftermath is a survival game. It has a steep learning curve and a save system to store Marine Experience. Objectives are relayed throughout the game and the Marines must do their best to complete them while surviving the constant onslaught of horrors.
Game Features
- Scenario based survival.
- Playable on slower computers and connections. Game engine has been optimized and memory requirements kept to a minimum.
- Relatively accessible to new players and laggier networks.
- Simulates a Marine platoon, incorporating tactics and procedures of the USMC. Significant measures to improve relevancy and accuracy will be taken for the next patch.
Game Background
27th September 2037 - A mysterious viral outbreak in Boston 4 days ago led the city to shut down and the entire state of Massachusetts to be placed under quarantine. Many early Marine Corps elements sent to facilitate the evacuation of the city have been wiped out, detailed by the events of Night of the Dead 2. In the past 36 hours, the US Military finally gained an upperhand and the outbreak was steadily brought under control. With state borders secured, Marine Expeditionary Units have begun patrolling the outlying towns for signs of contamination. Echo Company was one of these fateful units which found itself in the middle of the heaviest concentrations of unknown entities.
Gameplay Replay
A game replay is attached here to give completely new players a glimpse of how this game is played. Like many survival/rpg maps, gameplay takes a while to learn. Nevertheless, as much facilitation as possible is given to aid new players, relative to other survival maps.

The difference is especially stark in the DISBTN icons (click on another player's marine and see his inventory in both NotD 2 and Aftermath to see what I mean).
