Other things I found in MZ: - A player can spawn into the game mid-round - Zombie boss - The duration of pack-a-punch is way quicker. - More weapons variation (Old/ancient and new) - The game lets you know which gun you've equipped (on top of the ammo) - The weapons' names are displayed all the times.
One small annoying issue I had with MZ was that if two players are downed and one keeps crawling over the one you want to revive, it’ll keep cancelling the revive because they keep overlapping them
What i like about Michael's Zombies is that you have an option to upgrade the knife, it feels like your never defenseless with the Bowie knife upgrade.
What I like about Michael’s is that it’s the most similar to the original CoD zombies games with a few differences, Lazarus honestly just feels like a prototype of a zombies game just from how simple it is, it’s not bad though, just really simplistic
4:54, the devs updated the game, now you can select to either use toggle sprinting (press the shift key once to start sprinting) or hold sprinting (hold shift key to continously sprinting)
If you guys know any other differences between the games that were not captured in this video, do me a favor and place them in the comments down below. Also let me know if this video was helpful to you guys at all. Take Care and God Bless.
about quick revive, you can get it back even after the machine disappears (this can only be done on undead nocturn): the perk that the panzer drops can sometimes grant you quick revive instead of the other perk if you have all of the other perks, if you want to try to reap the benefits of this, make sure you have all the other perks (jug, dt, sc, etc.) to have a good chance of getting qr back
No offense, MZ is definitely more buggy and I’m saying this as a former tester, it was revoked due to the devs dropping this game from their priority, which is not an issue. My only complaint with this game is it adds more features every update and barely fixes any outstanding bugs. For instance, on round 55 all zombies were respawning near instantly and they would do this even mid-death, meaning it wouldn’t count as a kill, making it tediously long to get past a round. On nocturn the panzer will get stuck out of the map quite often too. I’ve also found a plethora of out of bounds bugs, one or two game-breaking exploits and other things. The reason why I prefer lazarus is while it has less features such as maps and all, it is polished and it is very rare you experience a bug nowadays.
No offense taken. Thanks for dropping the knowledge. Didn't know that you were a former tester for the game. It's easy to tell that PL is much smoother than MZ and as far as the bugs, I've heard a few stories of players ending up outside of the map way too often.
Yes, I’m not a tester, but I still like finding bugs in the game cuz the game got boring pretty fast and I’ve found some spots inside the maps where the zombies can’t get u at all. They should probably fix that. Also the panzers getting stuck outside the map thing happens almost everytime I play lol
Yeah it's clearly better. The guy doesn't want to say which is better to not offend people but come on Michael's zombies has so much effort put into it. And this guy just pretends they're equal
Michael's zombies is much more reminiscent of old cod zombies and reminds me of Resurrection (another roblox zombies game that used to be somewhat popular). Michaels zombies also seems to be much more action packed aswell. Also a thing worth mentioning: crate hoggers are a much bigger issue in lazarus then they are in michaels zombies, but people also tend to die quicker and more often in michaels zombies. Meaning quick revive is a perk you'll likely use a lot there. Running out of ammo is also less common in Michael's zombies.
As a project Lazarus player, I have to admit that Michael's zombies mostly has improvements on project Lazarus gameplay and is better in some ways. However I still love project Lazarus and won't stop playing and will try Michael's zombies
I used to play lazarus back in 2020 but the game went downhill and i play this game called MMC project cod zombie game but then again went dead and now im addicted playing michael zombies, honestly all those years of roblox cod zombie games gets better and better
Bro anyone who plays project Lazarus nowadays is just bad at mz. I've played pretty much every major Roblox cod zombies game and mz is and probably forever will be the best. The only way another game could overtake em is by having graphics as good as (or even better then) Michaels zombies' graphics, and by having more maps (and those maps being good ofc)
Micheal zombies has a troll map called "New Map" it's exclusive to private servers. That you'll wait the timer to get this "New Map" which looks like a custom zombies map which it's difficulty is heavy without friends or preparation.
the guns all feel unique in PL while some in MZ are very similar AUG and M4A4, trench shotgun and model 680, there are probably other examples but it just feels like the game has a few too many things. one map is just entirely unfun. and the only guns people ever want are the machine guns and special weapons, since you’re so mobile in mz unlike pl tldr modules are very good
Extra: the speed decrese also applies to sliding as it both decreses sliding speed and recovering speed from a slide Edit: it also decreses sliding range
both: fun detail and quality: MZ classic fun time with not much then killin zombies!: PL Guns are pretty much the same, who wouldnt love a good automatic gun in ANY zombie game?
As a cod zombies player who has not played either of these games, Michael zombies seems to be more like cold war, were it is much more casual, while project Lazarus seems to imitate world at war, being more hardcore and with other changes present in world at war.
as a PL player, I have to say that even though I didn't flinch into MZ, I managed to have a nostalgia for it. I understand those who prefer PL. By the way, I'm one of them actually. the MZ is more complete and beautiful to play and highly recommend it to those who know PL or cod zombies.
michaels zombies player here, i recommend using C to crouch and slide rather than ctrl, its much easier to slide cancel and go really fast around the map. also, i prefer to not have toggle sprint and you can access settings by pressing P. under controls is where you can disable or enable toggle sprint, and many other settings. also, there are different types of grenades. you can open the mystery box to get a friend, which replaces your grenades. you get 3 of them, but they regenerate after rounds. the zombies will all target the friend instead of players, and they will kick it around. then it will explode, giving LOTS of points. there are also bouncing betties, and other things related. theres also an easter egg with the friend, just toss one in the furnace and michael will speak to you (the cat). then you have to go around the map and shoot 5 mini-michaels with any pack-a-punched gun that shoots purple bullets. once you have all 5, a room will open somewhere and inside is the mule-kick perk-a-cola. it allows you to have 3 weapons equipped. also, 6:32 this is just false information and i dont know where you found that out. if you are reviving somebody they cannot die.
C to slide is pretty annoying cause V is right next to it, which instead of making you slide your way to victory, makes you melee and I've hit it's the single thing that's consistently gotten me killed in the game. Using CTRL isn't great either, cause SHIFT + CTRL is the windows keybind to switch keyboard layout/language, which makes it impossible to type chat messages properly cause the keys are in completely different positions whenever you slide. I hope they add the option to make custom keybinds eventually, cause the default binds are pretty bad.
@@joao34386 its windows key and space to change keyboard language and i have a tkl keyboard and yet i still dont mistake keys ingame. i might accidentally hold d instead of f to grab something, but its not a big deal.
6:45 i think it stops the timer in MZ too. in the footage you showed, at the exact moment of death the revive icon wasnt in white, which means you wasn't reviving him.
mz definitely has its pros and cons, and as a player of both, i can definitely say that lazarus is a lot more outdated, even though being older doesn't get updated as much or for a while. the reason mz is slightly better has a few reasons- 1: it gets more updates and has public testing 2: people love to -hog the mystery box- have the option to play multiple maps and have a lot of replayability 3: more perks 4: michael my beloved -keeps on taking the mystery box and going to the other side of the map- is so cool my favourite map from both is lazarus: graduation mz: undead nocturn (even though being very hard, is still very fun to do)
The revive thing is the same in both games. In michaels, the death time thing while someone is downed pauses while ur reviving UNLESS u revive right after someone else stops reviving (cuz the game’s code isn’t as good as pl and it can’t register that someone else started reviving quick enough) or if u start reviving them right before they’re supposed to die (cuz of the same reason as mentioned earlier)….I’m not 100% sure though lol
@@EdgeMasterGaming I’m just saying what I know from my experience. I’ve revived gem A LOT. And a lot of times, she was very close to death. But once I started reviving, her name went from red back to white which indicates she isn’t dying anymore. Ofc it is a possibility that just cuz her name got white doesn’t mean she wasn’t dying but I don’t think that possibility is the reality.
tbh, it's kinda alien for me to listen to a review about a COD zombies ripoff from a guy who never played zombies or cod. Overall, it was a nice review and it's kinda rare to find these types of players. It will be cool if you can try to play actually COD zombies. Keep up the good work!
Yeah the Luigi map used to exist as the undead nocturn map I couldn’t access the undead nocturn until the new update It’s a pretty hard map considering you can fall down and die when downed
una de las diferencias mas obvias y ciertas es que Michael's Zombies es mas difícil que Project Lazarus, los zombis son mas listos, mas rapidos, y hasta si te descuidas un segundo un solo zombi puede tumbarte sin mucha dificultad aun con la Juggernog. PD: si; soy un sub de edge que habla español.
You can actually hold 7 Perks in Michael Zombies thanks to the new update. All you need to do is to get the Perk drop. (You have to kill the Panzer for the powerup).
@@Tanphat8655 "longer game" bro match speed depends on how good the players are, good players can get to round 10 in less than 8 minutes, bad players might get to round 10 in 10 minutes
The reviving thing was because the person walked in front of you which stopped the revive and your friend died and the visuals glitched because that has never happened to me and I’ve had to have some clutch revives before That’s also why the revive bar stayed for a bit longer
Btw both of those games are a good approach to cod zombies and kind of revive old waw maps such as verrukt nacht and der riese even the modding aspect of cod such as the one window map and the lighthouse with the introduction of buyable ending
in michaels zombies if you begin reviving them, it pauses their health. thats why the revive label turns white. you were just too late to revive him, thats why he died.
4:22 I'm a little confused on why you were suprised, I mean I get the extra effect is cool but original cod zombies doesnt have it and neither does other roblox cod zombie games. Michael's zombies is moving to be its own thing and not just a regular cod zombies so maybe MZ will get something like this in the future 4:57 theres a setting to toggle it into a press and tap. 5:16 jumping is also in games like cod bo zombies but I don't know if you've ever played cod zombies and not roblox verisons 7:04 theres also a secret perk called stamin up where if you own all 5 perks and kill the panzer and it drops a perk bottle you can hold 6.
One common misconception about me is that people believe that i must've been a COD zombies player when, in fact, I've never played the game at all. It's a good thing cause it means I could've been good enough to play it, if I didn't get vertigo.
6:48 you are wrong though, reviving actually DOES halt the death timer, but in that clip, the player died before you can start reviving them, the reason is your ping, even with 200 ping, you will have to deal with a .2 second delay when you interact on your client, and in that small .2 second, the player died
In that case then the coding needs to be updated to account for lag. I'm sure that everyone would agree that if the game considers the character dead then a player shouldn't have the ability to begin the revive process. Simply put, this issue doesn't happen on Project Lazarus so I'm sure that something can be done to resolve this.
@@EdgeMasterGaming You started the reviving but the connection isn't fast enough for the game to accept the fact that you started reviving The only reason why Project lazarus don't have this effect is due to the fact that the game is mostly on low ping values (I mostly sees 80-90 ping servers, rarely there's a 200 ping server), when Project lazarus have lag problem, both will act the same way (Lag cause both game to have delayed reviving)
For starters before I begin, I do enjoy Michaels zombies however I do prefer Lazarus and I will list my criticisms of each here and why I have come to this opinion. I hope you can understand my opinion here. -- Cosmetics -- While both games have a similar aesthetic Lazarus in my opinion just looks so much better, the lighting is better the maps are grossly more detailed and everything just works. while Lazarus only has 2 maps, Michaels has 3 however one of them is more like a challenge map (light house). as for gun models, I'm tempted to give this a tie. Because they are different art styles it just seems unfair to judge them. Still I give this category easily to Project Lazarus. -- Gameplay -- This is gonna be a close one while Michaels zombies has much MORE movement mechanics BUT that DOESN'T make them BETTER movement mechanics. For starters Lazarus only allows you to move and sprint No jumping, no sliding, no crouching etc. This still works fantastically well, and is very flexible despite sounding very limiting. Its not very buggy at all. UNLIKE Michaels movement, which is... buggy to say the least. the no player collision in Michaels is cool but personally I prefer player collision, but I digress Michael zombies allows the player to move, sprint, jump, crouch, and even slide. Sounds amazing right? until you learn its a buggy freak show that barely works. The sliding is pretty pathetic by BO3 standards (BO3 is the game which sliding was added to zombies) the distance is lame and you also get stuck for a moment after getting up. While it is also useful and has saved my life a few times it could be much better. AND yes if ur a beast at zombies u can use this movement to its full potential, but for the average player it could be so much better. (sometimes sliding can glitch the zombies too) Moving away from movement lets talk about actual gameplay, Michael's Mele's weapons and attacks are FAR SUPERIOR to Lazarus not even a contest. Plus having a bowie knife or a OAR and the ability to upgrade knifes... Michaels zombies easily wins here. But lets talk about how hard the games are? surely ones harder than the other? Yes I would say Michaels is a little bit harder than Lazarus take this with a grain of salt as I'm not as familiar with Michaels as I am with Lazarus. This is due in part to Michael's having glitchy zombies, but I digress (one other thing to note is zombies can hit you threw barriers in Michael's and threw walls if ur unlucky). And for weapons id give this to Michael's too while Lazarus has the more powerful guns like the frostbite. Michael's still has the MUCH MORE FUN guns. Also Michael has grenades' (terribly scripted) but grenades none the less which can be fun. -BOSS BATTLES- Well I guess you can criticize Lazarus for not having these but its not like Michaels boss battles are something to be proud of... there extremely buggy the dogs are broken with terrible A.I and pathfinding. sometimes they dont spawn in properly and get stuck, same with the panzers. Nobody wins here. (albeit panzers are fun and actually somewhat of a challenge.) - Upgrading - Easily goes to Lazarus for creativity and Originality, While Michael zombies straight up rips off from COD Zombies. - The F key - Oh. My. God. WHY IS IT SO HARD TO BUY SOMETHING (in Michael's) you have to stand still look at it and mash ur F key 10 times before it will do what u want. Easiest Lazarus win here. its just so bad I'm sorry Michael. while I'm here lets talk about the buggiest team revive ever. yeah Lazarus wins again. - PERKS - Michael wins here despite having a worse quick revive that is fine cause there is no perk limit in Michael's. And there is more perks. - Easter eggs - Michael wins. -Performance and bugs - Lazarus easily wins, Lazarus managed to have bigger and more detailed maps yet have better performance? easy Lazarus win. Lazarus is just so much more polished then any other (COD) zombies game on Roblox.
Mz added attachments, literally no reason to play Lazarus anymore. Sure mz has its bugs but y'all acting like there are glitches every 15 seconds. Mz added attachments so you can customize any of the guns to your liking. Lazarus doesn't have that bruh. Michaels looks sooooo mich better fym Lazarus looks better are you actually blind. the guns in MZ are actually detailed, while the guns in Lazarus look like Lego bricks glued together. MZ has leveling, attachments, well made maps, actually difficult gameplay, a little bit of puzzle solving, the only reason I could see someone play Project Lazarus is because they stink at Michaels Zombies
@@theosis_. looking more realistic doesn’t make them look better lazarus has a different art style, Fortnite looks better than black ops 2 not because its more realistic, but because its just newer and better lighting. And yes there are bugs every 15 seconds. Its nowhere near as smooth as lazarus. Attachments are not the end all be all im not sure what ur trying to argue here Lazarus has leveling too, MZ maps are not well made, atleast not to the extent of lazarus, Yes MZ is more difficult because of its glitchy buggy zombies, buggy sliding, and broken F key “The stink at michaels” you need to stop D riding Micheals and open ur eyes a bit.
In the Mario map, im not sure if its different if yo udo it legit but i tried giving myself points with admin commands and when i tried it it just resetted me.
I didn't know you've never played actual COD Zombies before Usually most of the hardcore players on Roblox CODZ rip-off games that I meet have played atleast one Zombies game (usually BO3 or 4 or CW) or was there right from the Golden Era of Zombies (WaW - BO3)
well mz has been out for a lesser time than compared to project laz so its expected to have alot of bugs as of now but from what mz used to be id say they are doing way better than compared to before so its definitely a step towards a better game although i do wish fo rmore weapons in mz as in project laz there is a way bigger array or weaponry
@@papastalin3498 Many guns pap are very similar, other than Walther, the sniper, and the saiga. This is completely different when compared to pl pap. Yes mz looks tons better and smoother, but pl has better core gameplay
Michael is more awsome than Lazarus but I just remember that in project Lazarus they give you an ability everytime you pack a punch a gun but in Michael is just boring stuff. But!,in Michael zombies the best thing about it is....the guns,maps,sliding,reloading animations. I mean the guns in Michael zombies are just too old it's like from WW2 well some of them....but the reloading animations are still cool because in project Lazarus it's like...the reload is like beta or alpha version. But I prefer Michael zombies because it can be play in mobile but the dev are working on the mobile update in Michael zombies sooooo. Yea I think Michael zombie is my type
You said that in Michael's Zombies if you revive the player it doesn't pause them dying. That's actually not true and you just encountered a strange glitch where if you try to revive a player less than a second before death they will just die.
Micheal zombies would been my 2nd favorite zombie game but I don't like that you aculliy have to hold the f key for like 5 years that's really bad in late rounds
MZ is going for a COD style bc the perks are the same and edge no speed cola dose not build the windows faster and quick rev can re-rev you after you are downed and PL is kind of going for the COD zombies style but a lot of things have changed besides the Wonder weapons. [Edge if you did not now Graduation and Research are based of Verruckt and Five and the cool thing is on the BO1 Install meant of Verruckt it has the Winters Howell in it and Five has it too and those are the only 2 maps in BO1 that supports the Winters Howell (Graduation is Verruckt it is a Insane Asylum and Verruckt means Crazy In German and the Zombie out break of element 115 happened in Germany and it happened on a map called "Origins" and Research is based off of "Five" it happens in the Pentagon with Castro, JFK, Bush, and 1 more I forgot the name of :(.)
personally i think mz is better than project L die to graphics. also it takes hella long time to reload in project L and the zombies health is crazy high
Someone said that it's a client side issue. Because of the lag it allows you to begin the revive after the person dies which, im sure we can all agree, shouldn't happen. While the reason may be off, It doesn't happen in project lazarus which is why I posted it in this vid.
im more of a michaels player and ive never actually played lazarus but from this video id probably say mz is better but im not one judge you can have your opinion and i can have mine im just saying
this is not at all connected to the video, but i tried to play those who remain, and i died immediately... and it was wave 3, uhm, so yeah i feel like the zombies are too fast for me, even zombie rush's zombies arent that fast, omg, the same as this michael's zombies, theyre too fast for me,
better gameplay , better graphic , can solo , able to choose map. Project lazarus = need bobux to play solo , players keeps voting for the school map. (dead game)

In michaels, the death time thing while someone is downed pauses while ur reviving UNLESS u revive right after someone else stops reviving (cuz the game’s code isn’t as good as pl and it can’t register that someone else started reviving quick enough) or if u start reviving them right before they’re supposed to die (cuz of the same reason as mentioned earlier)….I’m not 100% sure though lol
How are you going to drop that explanation and be like I'm not 100% sure though 🤣.
@@EdgeMasterGaming I’m just saying what I know from my experience. I’ve revived gem A LOT. And a lot of times, she was very close to death. But once I started reviving, her name went from red back to white which indicates she isn’t dying anymore. Ofc it is a possibility that just cuz her name got white doesn’t mean she wasn’t dying but I don’t think that possibility is the reality.
@@applejuiceman that is the reality, white tags repesent a player got downed and being revive, if the tag is white, the death timer is halted
The Undead Nocturn is (Possibly) Based on Nacht der Untoten (first map of call of duty zombies )
The Wiki already stated that, and yes, your sentence is true
I mean, it was kinda obvious it was based, like, it is almost the same map lol
It’s an extended version
tbh, it's kinda alien for me to listen to a review about a COD zombies ripoff from a guy who never played zombies or cod. Overall, it was a nice review and it's kinda rare to find these types of players. It will be cool if you can try to play actually COD zombies. Keep up the good work!
Yeah the Luigi map used to exist as the undead nocturn map
I couldn’t access the undead nocturn until the new update
It’s a pretty hard map considering you can fall down and die when downed
una de las diferencias mas obvias y ciertas es que Michael's Zombies es mas difícil que Project Lazarus, los zombis son mas listos, mas rapidos, y hasta si te descuidas un segundo un solo zombi puede tumbarte sin mucha dificultad aun con la Juggernog.
PD: si; soy un sub de edge que habla español.
Ay, I actually understood this entire thing just from the Spanish I learned in high school, nice
@@applejuiceman i dont even know you, but ye, so proud of u XD
Yo igual xd
Gracias no entendía nada cd
Bro a mi no me sale para jugar :( y juego en pc ma ayudas?
You can actually hold 7 Perks in Michael Zombies thanks to the new update. All you need to do is to get the Perk drop.
(You have to kill the Panzer for the powerup).
Gameplay: Michaels Zombies
Nostalgia & Memories: Lazarus
tbh I cant name a thing that lazarus does better than Michaels zombies.
Longer game
More clean and 0 bugs whilst MZ has lots of bugs. I still prefer MZ tho because of the fast game pace
@@Tanphat8655 "longer game" bro match speed depends on how good the players are, good players can get to round 10 in less than 8
minutes, bad players might get to round 10 in 10 minutes
@@NikolaiArakelian mz doesn't have that many bugs bruh
@@theosis_. The game is easier that is you can reach higher wave & survive longer, aren't I am right.
The reviving thing was because the person walked in front of you which stopped the revive and your friend died and the visuals glitched because that has never happened to me and I’ve had to have some clutch revives before
That’s also why the revive bar stayed for a bit longer
This might just be nostalgia talking but i personally enjoyed playing project Lazarus more
in my opinion, MZ is much more entertaining since you have a lot of things that you can do whereas
PL has 2 maps and the gameplay feels boring
Micheals zombies is Mobile support, while Lazarus is not.
The Mario map reminds me of a custom bo3 zombies map so much 💀💀💀
Btw both of those games are a good approach to cod zombies and kind of revive old waw maps such as verrukt nacht and der riese even the modding aspect of cod such as the one window map and the lighthouse with the introduction of buyable ending
You deserve alot more than this, ur edit is good and you make usefull videos and make us laugh, you dont deserve 8k subs?
you deserve ALOT more
I appreciate that! Thank you.
in michaels zombies if you begin reviving them, it pauses their health. thats why the revive label turns white. you were just too late to revive him, thats why he died.
4:22 I'm a little confused on why you were suprised, I mean I get the extra effect is cool but original cod zombies doesnt have it and neither does other roblox cod zombie games. Michael's zombies is moving to be its own thing and not just a regular cod zombies so maybe MZ will get something like this in the future
4:57 theres a setting to toggle it into a press and tap.
5:16 jumping is also in games like cod bo zombies but I don't know if you've ever played cod zombies and not roblox verisons
7:04 theres also a secret perk called stamin up where if you own all 5 perks and kill the panzer and it drops a perk bottle you can hold 6.
One common misconception about me is that people believe that i must've been a COD zombies player when, in fact, I've never played the game at all. It's a good thing cause it means I could've been good enough to play it, if I didn't get vertigo.
@@EdgeMasterGaming you really should try actual COD zombies sometime
in michaels zombies there is a bug on the mario map, sometimes at the start of a wave marios dont spawn and youre just stuck on the wave
6:48 you are wrong though, reviving actually DOES halt the death timer, but in that clip, the player died before you can start reviving them, the reason is your ping, even with 200 ping, you will have to deal with a .2 second delay when you interact on your client, and in that small .2 second, the player died
In that case then the coding needs to be updated to account for lag. I'm sure that everyone would agree that if the game considers the character dead then a player shouldn't have the ability to begin the revive process. Simply put, this issue doesn't happen on Project Lazarus so I'm sure that something can be done to resolve this.
@@EdgeMasterGaming You started the reviving but the connection isn't fast enough for the game to accept the fact that you started reviving
The only reason why Project lazarus don't have this effect is due to the fact that the game is mostly on low ping values (I mostly sees 80-90 ping servers, rarely there's a 200 ping server), when Project lazarus have lag problem, both will act the same way (Lag cause both game to have delayed reviving)
For starters before I begin, I do enjoy Michaels zombies however I do prefer Lazarus and I will list my criticisms of each here and why I have come to this opinion. I hope you can understand my opinion here.
-- Cosmetics --
While both games have a similar aesthetic Lazarus in my opinion just looks so much better, the lighting is better the maps are grossly more detailed and everything just works. while Lazarus only has
2 maps, Michaels has 3 however one of them is more like a challenge map (light house). as for gun models, I'm tempted to give this a tie. Because they are different art styles it just seems unfair to judge them.
Still I give this category easily to Project Lazarus.
-- Gameplay --
This is gonna be a close one while Michaels zombies has much MORE movement mechanics BUT that DOESN'T make them BETTER movement mechanics. For starters Lazarus only allows you to move and sprint
No jumping, no sliding, no crouching etc. This still works fantastically well, and is very flexible despite sounding very limiting. Its not very buggy at all. UNLIKE Michaels movement, which is... buggy to say the least.
the no player collision in Michaels is cool but personally I prefer player collision, but I digress Michael zombies allows the player to move, sprint, jump, crouch, and even slide.
Sounds amazing right? until you learn its a buggy freak show that barely works. The sliding is pretty pathetic by BO3 standards (BO3 is the game which sliding was added to zombies) the distance is lame and you also get stuck for a
moment after getting up. While it is also useful and has saved my life a few times it could be much better. AND yes if ur a beast at zombies u can use this movement to its full potential, but for the average player it
could be so much better. (sometimes sliding can glitch the zombies too)
Moving away from movement lets talk about actual gameplay, Michael's Mele's weapons and attacks are FAR SUPERIOR to Lazarus not even a contest. Plus having a bowie knife or a OAR and the ability to upgrade knifes...
Michaels zombies easily wins here.
But lets talk about how hard the games are? surely ones harder than the other? Yes I would say Michaels is a little bit harder than Lazarus take this with a grain of salt as I'm not as familiar with Michaels as I am with Lazarus.
This is due in part to Michael's having glitchy zombies, but I digress (one other thing to note is zombies can hit you threw barriers in Michael's and threw walls if ur unlucky).
And for weapons id give this to Michael's too while Lazarus has the more powerful guns like the frostbite. Michael's still has the MUCH MORE FUN guns.
Also Michael has grenades' (terribly scripted) but grenades none the less which can be fun.
-BOSS BATTLES-
Well I guess you can criticize Lazarus for not having these but its not like Michaels boss battles are something to be proud of... there extremely buggy the dogs are broken with terrible A.I and pathfinding.
sometimes they dont spawn in properly and get stuck, same with the panzers. Nobody wins here. (albeit panzers are fun and actually somewhat of a challenge.)
- Upgrading -
Easily goes to Lazarus for creativity and Originality, While Michael zombies straight up rips off from COD Zombies.
- The F key -
Oh. My. God. WHY IS IT SO HARD TO BUY SOMETHING (in Michael's) you have to stand still look at it and mash ur F key 10 times before it will do what u want. Easiest Lazarus win here. its just so bad
I'm sorry Michael. while I'm here lets talk about the buggiest team revive ever. yeah Lazarus wins again.
- PERKS -
Michael wins here despite having a worse quick revive that is fine cause there is no perk limit in Michael's. And there is more perks.
- Easter eggs -
Michael wins.
-Performance and bugs -
Lazarus easily wins, Lazarus managed to have bigger and more detailed maps yet have better performance? easy Lazarus win. Lazarus is just so much more polished then any other (COD) zombies game on Roblox.
Mz added attachments, literally no reason to play Lazarus anymore. Sure mz has its bugs but y'all acting like there are glitches every 15 seconds. Mz added attachments so you can customize any of the guns to your liking. Lazarus doesn't have that bruh. Michaels looks sooooo mich better fym Lazarus looks better are you actually blind. the guns in MZ are actually detailed, while the guns in Lazarus look like Lego bricks glued together. MZ has leveling, attachments, well made maps, actually difficult gameplay, a little bit of puzzle solving, the only reason I could see someone play Project Lazarus is because they stink at Michaels Zombies
@@theosis_. looking more realistic doesn’t make them look better lazarus has a different art style, Fortnite looks better than black ops 2 not because its more realistic, but because its just newer and better lighting. And yes there are bugs every 15 seconds. Its nowhere near as smooth as lazarus.
Attachments are not the end all be all im not sure what ur trying to argue here
Lazarus has leveling too,
MZ maps are not well made, atleast not to the extent of lazarus,
Yes MZ is more difficult because of its glitchy buggy zombies, buggy sliding, and broken F key
“The stink at michaels” you need to stop D riding Micheals and open ur eyes a bit.
In the Mario map, im not sure if its different if yo udo it legit but i tried giving myself points with admin commands and when i tried it it just resetted me.
I didn't know you've never played actual COD Zombies before
Usually most of the hardcore players on Roblox CODZ rip-off games that I meet have played atleast one Zombies game (usually BO3 or 4 or CW) or was there right from the Golden Era of Zombies (WaW - BO3)
Yeah I can't play COD at all. I get a bad case of vertigo. Lazarus doesn't have that effect on me for some reason.
i only played the the bo1, bo2 and bo3
both games are great but I kinda like micheals more but they are still both fun
Biggest difference is that lazarus players fix barricades
rip MMC, the true forgotten zombies game
well mz has been out for a lesser time than compared to project laz so its expected to have alot of bugs as of now but from what mz used to be id say they are doing way better than compared to before so its definitely a step towards a better game although i do wish fo rmore weapons in mz as in project laz there is a way bigger array or weaponry
There are way more weapons in MZ it's just that there are different weapons for each map
@@papastalin3498 oh I know that but still, it's not a lot of extra weapons
@@brok3ndgt882 it's more combined together
@@papastalin3498 Many guns pap are very similar, other than Walther, the sniper, and the saiga. This is completely different when compared to pl pap. Yes mz looks tons better and smoother, but pl has better core gameplay
i like michaels zombies more because its more realistic
Michael's Zombies for a better experience and more customizability.
Project Lazarus for easier gameplay.
Dude you should make follow up video of 5 perks glitch. Some1 found it !!
I saw and thanks for the update.
6 Perks is possible without hacks
there is a secret perk called mule kick on der rise
those who remain 👑
TIp to ya: 4 shot then knife the zombie until level 5 then use whatever you have you left ammunition.
Michael is more awsome than Lazarus but I just remember that in project Lazarus they give you an ability everytime you pack a punch a gun but in Michael is just boring stuff. But!,in Michael zombies the best thing about it is....the guns,maps,sliding,reloading animations. I mean the guns in Michael zombies are just too old it's like from WW2 well some of them....but the reloading animations are still cool because in project Lazarus it's like...the reload is like beta or alpha version. But I prefer Michael zombies because it can be play in mobile but the dev are working on the mobile update in Michael zombies sooooo. Yea I think Michael zombie is my type
You said that in Michael's Zombies if you revive the player it doesn't pause them dying. That's actually not true and you just encountered a strange glitch where if you try to revive a player less than a second before death they will just die.
Yea I found this out later.
Micheal zombies would been my 2nd favorite zombie game but I don't like that you aculliy have to hold the f key for like 5 years that's really bad in late rounds
if the boss send the graple you go in other location that is not in the way of the graple
To slide in mz you can do shift c
I wish u could play project Lazarus on mobile like michel zombie
MZ is going for a COD style bc the perks are the same and edge no speed cola dose not build the windows faster and quick rev can re-rev you after you are downed and PL is kind of going for the COD zombies style but a lot of things have changed besides the Wonder weapons. [Edge if you did not now Graduation and Research are based of Verruckt and Five and the cool thing is on the BO1 Install meant of Verruckt it has the Winters Howell in it and Five has it too and those are the only 2 maps in BO1 that supports the Winters Howell (Graduation is Verruckt it is a Insane Asylum and Verruckt means Crazy In German and the Zombie out break of element 115 happened in Germany and it happened on a map called "Origins" and Research is based off of "Five" it happens in the Pentagon with Castro, JFK, Bush, and 1 more I forgot the name of :(.)
It is actually painful how you know nothing about actual cod zombies
😂
FETCH ME THEIR SOULS
Mmc zombie project meanwhile:
MZ is accessible to console players and mobile while lazuras is not.
The super Mario part you don't need to be in a vip
Mz have way more bug problem if you are late joinning on later round , like you straight up cant buy wall gun even if you have the point yo do so
personally i think mz is better than project L die to graphics. also it takes hella long time to reload in project L and the zombies health is crazy high
Nah i dont think the health is that much driffrent consider they all use the same health format as the real game
@@sashapinesnguyenhienhoa8003 oh ok. maybe i just joined on a later round or something
HEY GUYS WELCOME TO ANOTHER EPISODE

Do you hate the new death sound and want to change it?
New death sound doesn't sound all that great TBH. Sure I would like to change it.
Removing the classic “oof” death noise was a crime. Roblox went too far this time
@@applejuiceman go to roblox player - open file location - content - sounds - replace ouch.ogg file with another file and call it ouch too.
@@TheNifitss ah, someone found a way to get rid of the trash death noise already?
@@applejuiceman Yes.
you can slide with C in michel zombez
Michael's looks a lot better
I like Micheal zombies because his reality
you can crouch and sliding using ''c'' too
It would feel weird to use "c" honestly.
And also mz has xbox support
6:31 thats not true actually its just reveive glitching it does that sometimes but it pauses when u revive
Someone said that it's a client side issue. Because of the lag it allows you to begin the revive after the person dies which, im sure we can all agree, shouldn't happen. While the reason may be off, It doesn't happen in project lazarus which is why I posted it in this vid.
Me a zombie uprising player :💀
bro to beat the bosses you need the wonderwaffle
The undead nocturn (the map where michael panzer boss battle takes place) are pre-designed in a way that boxes will NEVER spawn Wunder Waffle
im more of a michaels player and ive never actually played lazarus but from this video id probably say mz is better but im not one judge you can have your opinion and i can have mine im just saying
Everyone can have their own. Thanks for the post.
this is not at all connected to the video, but i tried to play those who remain, and i died immediately... and it was wave 3, uhm, so yeah i feel like the zombies are too fast for me, even zombie rush's zombies arent that fast, omg, the same as this michael's zombies, theyre too fast for me,
michael's lazarus is a good name
Lazarus seems worse In every way, you explain the difference in mechanics and it makes it sound much worse and klunklier
honestly i think both games are very good, i don't consider either game better or worse.
For some reason. Cant play project laz
😢
one is for better pc thats the only diffrence
better gameplay , better graphic , can solo , able to choose map.
Project lazarus = need bobux to play solo , players keeps voting for the school map. (dead game)
whats your fav mz weapon
👇.
Trench shotgun.
i play both games tho
imo:
michaels feels like waw-bo3 ish because of slides (bo3) and old guns (waw/bo1/bo2)
lazarus is just waw lol
there both masterpieces
i know the diffirence lazarus has worse graphics
MZ is better than Laz in everyway. That is the difference.
6:12 LOL
Project lazarus
As someone who just recently played both for the first time, one is good one isnt.
