March 2025
This game has so much potential, the graphics are amazing, the crafting system is very detailed. BUT.....where is the loot?!? The POIs barely have any loot you need to craft everything which make this game feel like work rather than fun. Why does my screen shake so much and why can I not turn it off. Also why is there no toggle crouch or sprint option, help my pinky. This game lacks many simple quality of life mechanics unlike most survival games. Hopefully the devs keep updating, add more zombies, more ways of getting guns early.

Fun, especially co-op with friends, building up a base and gathering resources to survive and upgrade your gear, Maybe my most played game ever

This game is really great even right now considering that they are still adding content and such. It is a must have for anyone that likes base building, open world, survival, or even combat type games.

I bought this game cuz the concept of it is cool. The Lore is wild but isn't really there in game outside of some maps you could stumble accross. It's alright, If you enjoy the solo PvE experience you'll like it for a little while. Lacks optimization but the game looks nice at Ultra, High and Medium. The game needs some polishing, bug fixes, better enemy AI and some lore incorporated in the gameplay. The progression system is intuitive between Tech unlocks and Talents there's plenty to look forward to. This game has potential.
