The game is fun, but I have to give it a negative review. The Developers, Ascension Studios, have abandoned the game. Instead of letting it stay in Early Access, so that Steam can alert users to the unfinished state of this game, and how long the last update was, they pushed it to 1.0 (with several features missing or incomplete) and immediately ceased development when they didn't make as much money as they felt entitled to. It's their right to throw their hands up and surrender when their game doesn't pull Helldivers 2 numbers the second it releases. However, the lack of passion and their willingness to abandon a game has put a very sour taste in my mouth. I will be extremely wary of purchasing games from Ascension Studios in the future... DISCLAIMER: The game is VERY fun. I highly recommend buying and playing the game if this kind of thing seems petty or inconsequential to you. This frustration is borne from the sense of loss that a great game will never be completed and reach its full potential, but what is there is really really fun.
The game is fun but it is really a shame to see it abandoned. I really would've loved to see a more finished product. Unfortunately there is a few things that take any and all challenge out of the game (Mainly quickswapping to fire the highest damaging weapon in your loadout as fast as your heart desires) and of course the lack of players currently on the game.
abandoned. last update from devs was june 2025. bad AI voices and i would assume other content i didnt notice. It doesnt know if it wants to be killing floor or helldivers. Every match is just a slow jog around a map that is too big, with no actual map to look at. while monsters always know where you are so its just boring.
Что будет если совместить Zombie Army Trilogy, сеттинг старых Resident Evil и добавить щепотку Payday? Ответ перед Вами. Геймплей - Кооперативный шутер от 3его лица с высадкой на карту, выполнением заданий, отстрелом зомби и последующим выходом из нее. Стрельба здесь как в Sniper Elite - если стоять на месте и стрелять одиночными, то все летит в точку, если же зажимать - куда угодно. Общая атмосфера - как в RE. Структура геймплея - как в Payday. В хабе есть верстак для прокачки снаряжения, выбора заданий, покупки нового оружия, открытие перков. Также на выбор представлено несколько оперативников со своими ультимейтами. Сам игровой процесс весьма однотипен, но присутствует огромное кол-во сложностей и рандомная генерация. Небольшое, но разнообразие. Краткий гайд, как пройти максимальные сложности в соло без проблем. Вам понадобится: 1) Полностью улучшенная снайперка Scorpion-SD5 (ваншотит почти всех врагов, на особо толстых мобов надо 4-5 пуль). 2) Рюкзак Exotec ST-003 (восполнение выносливости). Можно заменить на Exotec AT-004a/004b (даже 1 турель очень сильная, а 2 и подавно). 3) Перки: Берсерк (+10% к наносимому урону, -10% к получаемому), Прилив Адреналина (+10% к скорости передвижения и восстановлению выносливости), Быстрый шаг (+10% к скорости передвижения). 4) Не играйте карту с дирижаблем. Вот и все. Высокий мувспид и палка-ваншотилка позволят без проблем пройти любую карту. Из не сильно приятного: 1) Необходимость гриндить ресурсы, чтобы иметь возможность проходить высокие сложности. Учитывая, что карт всего 5, это не очень весело. Также есть и доля рандома в получаемых перках. Мне повезло с их выпадением, поэтому и закрытие макс. сложности оказалось не проблемой даже в соло. 2) Структура локаций с подъемами. Персонаж не умеет сгибать ноги в колене, отчего поребрик может быть непреодолимым препятствием. Аудио - Очень кайфовый саундтрек на манер DOOM или KF. Сами же звуки передвижения и стрельбы также весьма приятны, как и голос куратора. Графика - Очень вайбовая картинка времен PS2. Локации интересны и разнообразны, но иногда из-за однотонной гаммы текстуры будто сливаются друг с другом и не понять куда нужно идти. Итог - Вайбовая игрушка с зачисткой карт в одиночку или кооперативе. 7 вылазок в зомби рассадник из 10
Game is kind of fun, but is lacking in several areas which is crippling it's potential. Personally my biggest issues would be the terrain jank which makes half of the maps nearly unplayable, and the huge grinding this game asks for, with little to no quality of life, or late game pay-off. Unfortunately, dev slapped 1.0 on it and bailed, so we'll never know what it could have become.
The perfect option for weekend trash with friends.
Very mid game. It doesn't feel like you have any goals going in to the missions. And apparently they abandoned the game and just pushed it into "1.0." It feels very empty and lack luster in most aspects. The wave scaling is kind of insane and the weapons are not satisfying to use. I'd rather just play cod zombies than this really.
ITS NOT BAD. BUT REMEBER THIS IS SLAV-JANK
Feels like a hollow shell of what could be a really neat game. Enemies clip through walls, floor, roof, etc. Gunplay is whatever, very clear balance issues between guns even after upgrading and ultimately, it's just not very fun. Spend your money elsewhere.
A good co-op game for several evenings of play. Lots of maps, weapons, enemies, and perks. Everyone can find their own playstyle here. Perfect for a good time with friends.
