New Player's Guide

Despite the simple premise of shooting zombies and running, this guide is fairly long. There's a lot of nuance and things that might not reveal themselves to you at first. There are new weapon stats, map strategies, difficulty levels, team coordination, and a slew of other changes. It's overwhelming! The first and foremost thing is to have fun, of course. Get lost in the atmosphere, enjoy the weird people around you, and have fun shooting zombies.
The sections of this guide that will be most likely be relevant to you will be the following.
Meet The Humans (Custom Weapon Attributes, Loadout Suggestions, Human Mechanics)
Meet The Zombies (Zombie Abilities, Zombie Mechanics)
Elements of ZE (Map-specific factors of the gamemode)
Where to Play (Skial ZE Server IPs)
The rest of it? Well... don't sweat it! You can learn as you go or feel free to read up on it if you want - the guide's search bar is your friend here in finding obscure pages/subpages that you might not have noticed. This guide is meant for anybody interested in the game mode, so there will be a lot of information provided for reference.
Not necessarily every round will roll out the same way in a dynamic, player-driven mode like ZE - so while a lot of this guide might have specific takes on how you should play - there isn't really a definitive, one-note type of strategy for every map; don't be afraid to experiment around the edges!
If you're new, take things leisurely and just have fun at your own pace :).
