I traded away my LNoE collection when I saw some early reviews of Zombicide and I'm happy I did. The games do play very differently, but I really do think Zombicide is the much better game. It's coop, and insanely difficult in some scenarios, and it's really just a blast to have 50 zombies chasing after you.Some gripes I always had with LNoE - I felt (and everyone in our playgroup) that playing the zombies was really, really boring and pretty programmed. I almost wonder if that is where Zombicide got the idea to just program them anyways. I'm not saying there aren't any decisions to be made by the zombie player, but there are a lot less, and definitely a lot less fun to be had on the Zombie side.
A few people have complained about some of the wonky rules in Zombicide. I don't find the targeting rules to be strange or even difficult to explain. What I usually say to beginners is that you CANNOT shoot into a square with another player, because effectively, that's the truth in 99.9% of cases.
Having played LNoE a whole bunch, and when I played it, I did enjoy it - I recommend Zombicide all the way.
