I don't know if it's just me, but it's almost unplayable unless you find a vehicle rightaway.
The spawn system isn't exactly ambient. Whenever I 'trigger' the spawning, a horde of zombies come running at me as if I was playing left 4 dead.

I've been going zigzaging from house to house to get the zombies off of me, and I've been running for the whole in-game day, and yet they are still spawning from all directions.

I backed up the save, started wishing for 50+ molotov cocktails and started going rampage against the zombies. Even though it's still day one, I think I already killed more than 80 of em.

Considering Cataclysm began life as "Left 4 Dead Roguelike". This is hardly surprising :P

And running deeper into the city to escape zombies is generally a bad idea, the deeper you go into cities, the heavier the spawns get.

Try not to get into the cities too much without a vehicle. I noticed the difference in spawns after a long time of not playing it too. I think it can be justified since we got vehicles now.

even a full burst from m60 only attracted 10 something zombies.
Since when did M60s exist in Cataclysm, outside of mods?

They were part of the Vehicle Mod and were meant as a vehicle-based weapon. When Whales merged it with the main game it was added as well.

The existence of Cataclysm prevented me from making a probably stupid purchase right now.

There will likely be another bugfix update shortly, now that kevingranade seems to have gotten to the bottom of (some of?) the vehicle bugs in the new version.

The only annoying vehicle bug is the disappearance of vehicles for me.

This game is HARD.

When I start out in the shelter, the only loot I can usually find are jeans or a tin can, and all the houses are quite a ways away. By the time I'm done raiding my first house, Zed are chasing me to hell and back. I don't know how to be stealthy or noting, because they always find me. If the Zombies don't kill me, then I starve to death! >.<

Just take things from anything nearby and stockpile them in your nearest shelter, so that your next character has access to loot instantly.
