The first game was a little bit better than this one but still. It is the same thing with a few new enemies and clunky gameplay (the game is made for consoles, wich is why the controls are a bit clunky) ((**Remember to grab the machete on your first run on the middle locker room or arsenal room on Kovac's bunker you will need it to chop wood and make arrows and other things**)) The camp mechanic is....meh but it gives you another reason to go out and murder zombies, everything you do will give you experience wich you exchange for points for your character, camp, and ¨skills¨ (for separated) so you will have to choose wisely or just ...kill more and more. i do preffer the first one metod with the skill tree but eh.. Anyways is a nice game and more focused in multiplayer than the first one so if you have friends and wanna try something different go on give it a try.

Yo! No idea why its only "mixed"... you may read things like "pay 2 win" and people complaining about timers, or that there isnt any story and the such, but ignore those. As someone who played and completed the first one, as well as owning this game for years and playing it a lot too, let me tell you whats really the case here. - No its NOT pay 2 win, you can do just fine without DLC weapons and pets. Its making it easier, yes, but you dont need it, especially when playing by yourself or with friends. - People down voting it because of timers are the same kind who down vote survival or horror games for lack of ammunition. Guys, as if you NEVER had a timer in any game. It is adding a sense of urgency, not every quest has timers either. Lower the difficulty of the level, run past enemies, ask a friend to help via controller or literally anything. You will have plenty of time for any objective. - Yeah there isnt really a story, it has several NPCs with their own mini stories and rewards as well as seasonal stories. Its supposed to be more sandbox and honestly... for 15 bucks you cant really complain about it. Its pretty chill, plus it has 4 player couch co-op, what game has that these days? If you really want, wait for a sale or something. Its not a bad game. Its very grindy, but so is almost every game (especially survival ones). If its not yours, dont get it. if you are interested but you arent sure if its yours, get it on sale, but give it a chance. Personally I hope there will be a third game someday. 7/10

This game is so fun but full of mi8stakes, you can destroy items but get nothing. Bullet upgrades really don't mean anyrthing. You may have lead bullets but then you get the next level and it's just a ten point difference which you will not see in damage or play. This game has true potential to be great but just to many aspects are broken.

Idc. i like this game, it has issues like in game with quest and completion bugs. Still recommend over newer titles. I want to clone this genre. I might be the only one who will play tho.

Good afternoon, having played more than 70 hours, I decided to share my opinion and impressions of the game, the game with its mechanics and atmosphere is somewhat similar to “Project Zomboid”, but here it is not a completely open world, but divided into locations. In general, the game is interesting, a lot NPCs, well-written dialogues and plot, but this is only a single-player game, and if we talk about multiplayer, then there are problems, the first is that the online is very small, you meet the same people, plus the players themselves, for some reason you are afraid when you you go to their server just to play together and they either try to kill you or ban you from the server, it’s sad, I recommend getting acquainted and spending time playing the game for a couple of evenings.
