In short,
In conclussion:
20H on record.
Review gameplay on a boring [url=https://www.twitch.tv/videos/206731653] video[/url]
The game works till a point.
BUT due to lack of variarity on all fronts the game becomes extremely boring fast and has little to no replayability when you figure out the basic rules required to win.
There is no form of any challenge at all.
There is no variaty.
Overall i found everything very lackluster , nothing really stood out there is no Wow factor,
and i found it too easy.
There is no save/load function.
As of the current state of the game, 20hours is the max playabilty for me
i wish i could post a neutral review, but since i can't it will be positive as it's still 20 hours play'd.
Altho i'd recommend buying it during a sale.
I did not try Multiplayer as i could not find anyone playing this and i have no friends (boohoo me).
Longer!.
Made it to stage 25+(Survival) on Hardcore stage 22? is where the performance drops signficantly 25+ it just becomes "unplayable".
Had to reduce visuals due to massive performance drop at stage 8, Nights then became extremely dark.
Waypathing, AI gets stuck in the center of the map/stuck on the floors on badly placed spawners.
Stage 1/2 require you to defend yourself which is quite easy then you can buy your first turret. at stage 5 you yourself don't have to do anything.
The game became very stale after that. Just horde spam every re-play is the same.
The game feels like the dev bought most of the assets or atleast it feels/looks that way. (Not nessesarly a bad thing)
I did not care much for the other 2 game modes, 1 is building a "stronghold" the other is PVE without turrets i guess i never made it far before being overrun as a solo player.
Crafting/Resource gathering
Stage 1 to 5 you only need to chop about 5 tree's (~100 per tree) and 2 to 3 "metal"nodes
after this you get everything you need from the many loot boxes scatterd about
Crafting is almost entirly pointless, You'll craft a forge , 2 boxes and maybe a few concrete barriers,
All other objects are pointless or useless due to lack of HP or any functionality.
You cannot craft active defences or light sources.
Weapons:
Pointless, You only need the basic pistol(Most OP thing ever) and early on maybe the shotgun.
All other weapons are useless as the basic pistol does everything better.
The only thing they do better is waste resources for ammo.
Active defences :
1 "MG" turret
[list]
[*]Slow bullet travel time makes it hard to shoot zombies unless they walk toward the turret
[*]Model is rather ugly.
[/list]
1 Tesla turret (Slow DMG over time/slow down zed)
[list]
[*]Damage over time.
[*]Slows zed(s)
[*]Too bright.
[/list]
That's it. its not very interesting, you cannot upgrade them. it is in my opinion a big fail in what is essentialy a turret defence game.
Zombies
Pro's
[list]
[*]Texture quality is high
[*]There are ragdoll effects.
[/list]
Con's
[list]
[*]There is just 1 Animation for everything.
[*]There is just 1 model.
[*]You cannot "Mutilate" (read dismember) the zeds they just drop.
[*]NO AI. Just walk towards player as fast as possible.
[*]No Bosses,Specials.
[/list]
UI
[list]
[*]Late game, The Turret icon spam is a problem.
[*]Magazine shows current loaded rounds and max loaded rounds a magazine can hold.
Total ammount of ammunition is not being displayed.
