Contagion isn't your average Zombie Shooter but instead takes a more realistic and different approach to the popular genre with unique characters, environments, weapons, items, and a built in system that makes every round completely unpredictable with resources, objectives, and paths ever changing.

You should abandon your thoughts on buying this like how Monochrome abandoned their game, seriously. It's an absolute slog fest, near constant soft-locks, and crashes lots on both new and old(er) hardware, (Played on both RX5700 XT with AMD Ryzen 5 5600X and EVGA 1080Ti with Intel Core i5-12600KF) Tabbing out will break the game 75% of the time and either give you a blackscreen, or just freeze your pc entirely, force terminating the process in task manager rarely ever worked. (this only happened if done multiple times during a single level, lets say, looking for a guide, even when using steam overlay!) There is no rewarding or good sense of progress whatsoever, you beat an overly dragged out mission and are just put into another one where you get no hints on what to do, no narrative or storytelling, no character development, no cutscenes, nothing. Spend 20 minutes to an hour (or more) till the next one, and repeat until you beat the game or get tired of it. Remember where you drop your key items (Fuses, Keycards, Boltcutters, Torch, ESPECIALLY KEYS, they're damn near invisible) - they will either blend in with the ground if it's dark - or just spawn elsewhere near where you last dropped it, which isn't said anywhere, so you'll end up finding the item you dropped for a good 10-ish minutes after you lose it and see it on a random barrel or in the middle of some doorway. After struggling with some missions you might think: "oh phew, I'm surely getting there, that sucked! This really is an apocalypse. Hope the next ones good! Maybe I'll get some better guns" And then you'll be saying that for every mission again and again, then the game ends. The game is 100% dead, good luck getting into any game. Have fun trying to get this wreck to work with friends. I don't think I liked a single level in this game, the worst ones I remember are: - The bridge level where you enter a warehouse (+30 zombies spawn and horde around you, and you need those BS keycards) - Train level, my god was it bad, even on normal mode. Managed to speedrun it but it has bad RNG elements - Mansion (Easily the worst one, felt like this one was made purely to have people play for a long time) - The Neighborhood (Very confusing layout and you get no hints on where to go, everywhere looks the same) - Sewers (Just really dark and made no sense level design wise, GGs if you get lost in there) Gunplay, gore and some voice acting was cool, but that's all positives I can think of. Also, not as important but good to note: Devs promised Linux and Mac support when the game came out (2013) but nothing ever came of it. And to that one single guy who was working on this after the devs said ♥♥♥♥ it; go make money working for someone who appreciates what you do. these guys ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ suck. Don't waste your money on this crap. Nuff said

最后一关的公馆简直恶心到令人发指,CNMD傻逼设计关卡,全程找钥匙我操你妈
Se voce procura um FPS Zombie Coop aqui é o nicho certo A pegada é mais lenta que Left 4 Dead porem um pouco mais "realista" Os zombies são estilo Classico No maximo eles cambaleam rapido Tiros na cabeça se quiser sucesso ou descarregue o pente no corpo sua escolha Vale a pena tanto em Full Price quanto em Promoção Recomendo para jogar com a galera sem duvidas mesmo sendo antigo o Dev ainda Atualiza e tras novos conteudos Definitivamente melhor que muito jogo atual !
Шарюсь я по библиотеке, значится, вижу Contagion, перехожу в карточку продукта и с удивлением обнаруживаю, что игру уже 11 лет поддерживают, жесть просто, Monochrome +rep
Online Servers are Dead. Single player exists, but not great. Back in 2013 this would have been a decent game to play with friends. Currently now days you are better off spending your money on something else. 2/10 - Money best spent on something else. This games time has come and gone.
任务系统硬伤比较严重,极大降低游戏体验。 1. 关键物品点没有范围提示,新手经常要在整个地图中寻找一个保险丝或者一把钥匙或者一个房卡,如大海捞针。在寻找物品的时候,地图会一直刷僵尸,这会一直消耗玩家弹药和血量,这会让新手极其焦虑,一边是不知道通关物品在哪里,一边还要处理逼近的僵尸,极其挫败新手初期的信心。 2. 僵尸逼近几乎无声音,玩家经常被偷袭甚至背刺,对于单人非常的不友好。 3. 第二关死亡列车,没玩过这么恶心的地图。凳子桌子门都在卡人物的运动,最简单的难度也要玩很多次才有可能通关一次。就那么小的空间刷那么多的僵尸,还有SWAT僵尸、部队僵尸,TMD釜山行都没这难。 4. 关键物品是不是一次性的,游戏从来没有给出提示,导致玩家不敢扔掉关键物品,并且关键物品和武器一样也占用4个武器栏中的一个,让玩家两难选择。这不是策略性,这是脑残设计——捡起一张房卡就必须的丢掉一把武器,带着一个保险丝就必须丢掉一把大锤,等等。为了最大化利用武器栏,你不得不背板,只有这样你才能知道什么时候要保留过关物品,知道什么时候可以扔掉过关物品从而腾出一格武器栏。这又和开发者设计的随机关卡不想让玩家背板相矛盾。 5. 灯光的光晕让人眼瞎,满地图都是小太阳。严重怀疑开发者高度散光和弱视。认为真实的世界就该这样。 6. 地图都是黑不溜秋的屎黄色。环境暗没关系,但你得给我手电筒啊。只有手枪有手电筒附件,捡到的高级武器很少有手电筒附件,有个便携式手电几乎走狗屎运才能捡到,还得占武器栏一格。大部分的死亡都是“黑灯瞎火的环境”+“任务关键点时候刷出的一群被没有脚步声的僵尸”+“永远没有手电附件的主武器” 这三点导致有枪也看不见僵尸的头部,所以也打不准,最终被围死。这不是你手残不残的问题,这完全就是游戏设计有硬伤的问题。 唯一值得肯定的就是这是独立游戏、游戏有中文翻译,且开发者长年坚持更新,实属不易。
F this game bruh.. about a decade later and still can't host a p2p lobby even after all the "fixes"
Enormous maps with very little guidance and super punishing restarts, and a really half-baked idea of a way to make multiplayer more interesting by having dead players become zombies that try to kill the remaining survivors, aka your friends. Sounds like a fun idea on paper but in practice, why would you ever want to kill your friends and prolong the already absurd length of how long it takes to beat this game, and make everyone have a sour mood. Also quite buggy, for example if you pick up a keycard, everyone but you can open the door it's meant to unlock. Not fun in the slightest, but I want the dev to keep improving.

Да, правильно поняли. В игре нет онлайна.
