The Exclusion Zone:
Sorry about the wait. As I stated in my last Dev Log, I burnt myself out working on a misguided alternate mode.
That mode is the Exclusion Zone. It was meant to be an open world exploration based mode inspired by the likes of Stalker. Needless to say I bit off more than I could chew.
You can feel free to check it out for yourself, its available in the Level Select Menu under Extras.
Going forward my plan is the scrap its content, assets and ideas into the next two thirds of Episode one; where the player can experience them in a more structured and refined experience…
