Alright, I finally got all achievements and finished everything. Maxed out every class & weapon, and now it's time for me to review this beautiful game. Is it perfect? No. But is it good? Absolutely. These devs clearly had a limited budget. They had to sacrifice some things to still make this game work. But what’s the most important thing in a game like this? The shooting. Is the shooting good? YES IT FKN IS!!! Weapons have a solid punch and behave exactly how you’d expect. Unlike WWZ or L4D2, there’s no random spray. If your aim is good and you can control your weapon, you’ll absolutely shred zombies and specials to pieces. Shooting zombies just feels satisfying. The gore is impressive, the physics are solid, and the way zombies react to getting hit makes every encounter feel alive. You will notice the budget in some areas. Some actions you do repeatedly during missions could be smoother. Filling gas into your car, for example, requires standing very close and aiming carefully at the fuel cap. Same thing with healing teammates. If they move even an inch, the heal gets cancelled, and you end up chasing them around trying to heal them while they don’t even realize it lol There’s also no toggle ADS option, which can be annoying, and while the guns sound good, many of the rifles sound quite similar. But none of these issues ruined the fun for me. The core gameplay is just that satisfying. I played all the way to 100% completion, and I still enjoyed every minute. Every class, every weapon, and every achievement felt rewarding. The music is SO DAMN GOOD. At the end of the day, John Carpenter's music cannot be bad, and it perfectly sets the tone for every mission. If you love zombie shooters and want something that actually feels good to play, this game is worth your time. It’s not a AAA masterpiece, and it has its quirks, but it nails what really matters. The price is fair, making it an easy recommendation for anyone looking for a fun, satisfying zombie shooter. Between the solid shooting, the detailed gore, and the iconic music, this game will make you laugh, scream, and blast through zombies like a total legend. That’s exactly why this game is awesome. Just because I’ve finished everything doesn’t mean I’m done. I’m planning to help other players and I’m excited for new updates and content to come. And I have one dream for this game, one request that would make me the happiest guy on earth: add the Repeating Rifle from WWZ with the same sounds. I’d unleash mayhem like never before. That weapon is just perfect and pure satisfaction. <3

TLDR; the games fun but it is by no means complete. They should have labled it early access. There are no story spoliers below, only mechanics discussions. Pros: • Gun play is solid and smooth. • Optimisation has not been an issue for our group. • Nostalgic vibes (Throw back to Left 4 Dead, Back 4 Blood etc) • Gameplay mechanics are good (Puzzles, world travseral, vehicle assortment, world interaction) Needs work: • Lack of content, only a handful of "Maps" that all feel the same. Similar layouts, same assests. Gets very samey very quickly. • Lack of and real RNG/variance to runs. The core objectives in each mission are the same and there is a lack of side mission/events of anything to add variance to runs other then the elite spawns. • No class building/variance: There is a skill tree but its linear improvment with little to no diverification. You not changing how you play or interact with your team. • The weapons might as well be all the same, outside of the types (Rfile, SMG, shotgun, etc) they all feel the same. Some more variance or reason to use other weapons would be nice. • On the same line of weapons, there is 1 sniper rifle that is more of a DMR than a true sniper, seems odd that there is an entire category for 1 weapon. Again leads me into the early access mindset that a full release. • The weapons clearly have 4 upgrade levels in the UI (Green, Blue, Purple, Gold) but you can only upgrade to purple. There is a prestigue system which allows you to unlock 3 additional skins for the weapons (Which all look like poop IMO) but no power. Seems like a really half baked way to "Add gameplay/replayability" instead of actual content. • Prestigue system is painful, understand the full reset back to level 0, but having to pay for the upgrades again for each weapon is horrible, especially with how much they cost and how many you get. I think leveling the gun again is fair but don;t make us pay for the attachments again which we have previously unlocked. • Lack of point of interests, theres unique and hidden caves/sections on the maps which are empty. They look like they were designed to have collectables or evetns etc but we have yet to find any. Again leans towards early access as they appear to have had plans they never implemented. • Cosmetics: There are very few and all are garbage. Again seems like early access/minimal viable product. There are 2 head accessories for each character and 6 "Skins" which are all just slight re-colours and not actual Skins with changes. Summary: They game is good, but it is not a full release and does not have ton of content. I think the price is fair if you got it in the bundle for owning Space Marine 2 or one of the other games. You'll get a few hours of coop fun with your friends, have a few laughs and then most likely put it down for a year until they release "1.0" or whatever DLC/major update name they give it when the game is actually done. Wishlist: • Procedural maps/missions with random side missions and events. We need a coop horde game with real replayability. The gaming space has been lacking this for quite a while. • Class diveristy: Make builds a thing, change things up, go wild. It's PVE so doesnt matter if something ends up being overpowered, tune it later. Just add some more fun to it. • More tactical elites: ALL OF THEM are just bullet sponges, none of them require any finese or thought, just unload bullets in general direction. I would love to see some more variants that take co-ordination between players, flanking, shotting parts in certain changing orders. And slow some of them down, some of the "Weak Points" are so small and the enemies flail everywhere. vary it up a little, such as the big tank dude with 3 or weakpoints, he runs around flailing but has an insance amount of HP, and hits like a truck. No enemy should have speed, power and be tanky unless its a gimic fight. 2 of the 3.

It is okay for the price. Pro gamer tip: Disable crossplay if you’re tired of watching evolutionary theory being disproven in real time and wondering how a bunch of Cro-Magnons got access to the internet. It’ll also save you from muting people on open mic blasting music, coughing, sneezing, blowing their noses, burping, farting, and arguing with their girlfriends. Yes, every one of those is a real experience I’ve had.

Good game, if they dont abbandon it and keep launching content, it will worth the purchase, otherwise it will be expensive.
