Hello everyone!
Mike here, I am the new Community Manager. I’m to answer all questions from the community.
Real quick before I introduce myself. The past is the past. We have a fresh team with renewed motivation and enthusiasm. Moving forward, we are trying to bring in these new faces and also learn from our past mistakes.
With that said, Hello! I am Mike Gomez, also known as Lord Commander Guts. Just a little bit about me, I have been within the community since Zombie Panic: Source! I was also, a backer for Contagion during the Kickstarter. Many of you may already even know me from playing as a backer during the twitch streams. I will push to ensure that the steam notifications have new updates rather than twitch pop ups. I come from the Melee Gaming Association as News Content Director and Community Manager. I am going to make sure that you (the players) have all the news simplified. As a player and supporter there are things I too, would like to know, and will do everything in my power for you to know what I know. I also, produce music on the side, and by day, I am an Emergency Response Specialist.
As a backer and supporter, it is my hope and goal to rebuild and regain your trust. I loved the games and still play with friends, even with the wifey.
I will be assisting with the live streams answering questions as the big dudes behind Monochrome show you some new features, designs and concepts.
Starting fresh after the last announcement of Contagion VR: Outbreak, we are going in a new direction to raise the curtains on development, while ensuring we still have some some surprises to sweep you off your feet.
So let’s just jump to the next step of development. Contagion VR: Outbreak, I myself do not have a VR yet, as I have not played it. I can share your concerns seeing as how pricey it can be to purchase a VR set and a rig that can operate it. I can share with you all, that Non VR users have not been forgotten. There is much coming for all us non VR owners.
Contagion 2, though not announced, is our goal. With this project towards VR, we are hoping it will be a starting place to fixing AND patching Contagion AND paving the road to the next title.
What to expect on the demo:
Within the next couple weeks the Demo should be available to play for free. This will be on the new Unreal 4 engine, based in the Contagion universe. At first it will be VR only, and shortly to long after (through our transparency), to non-VR users. We not only wish to grow different branches, we also wish to strengthen our bonds with the supporters. We could not do it without you.
On a personal level, Send me ideas and concepts you’d like to see tested and potentially implemented. I’ll pass it up the chain of command and we will dive into the potential. Whether bringing Zombie Panic: Source! Survival mode with free movement wood barricades, to perhaps bringing Whitey(Alpha) Zombie back.
Also, if you are like me, waiting for VR Prices to jump down, VR Day is in the spring. And for 24 hours, ALL VR SETS are 100$ off.

Just a small disclaimer, I myself as some of the others, have a full time day job. Anytime after 6PM PST or 9PM EST, I will go through all of your questions on the steam page.
