Killstreak Reviews

An absolute dumpster fire of a game. Killstreak is what happens when someone with no programming talent or creative thought gets their hands on the Unreal Engine creator and decides that they're going to rip off Call of Duty and lazily cobble something together in an afternoon. It's a mismash of low quality store bought assets and stolen content that should embarrass any developer with a shred of integrity or decency. It is baby's first video game and one that shouldn't be asking for any money, let alone $8. Killstreak is a game that we've seen on Early Access a thousand time before. A lazy shovelware asset flip that gets pushed up for a few bucks and then quickly abandoned when the developer realizes that nobody falls for this on a scale that is profitable anymore. It provides absolutely no value with terrible controls, grating sound, poor hit detection, and stolen assets from bigger and better games. There are three maps, one of which is stolen and ripped Hanger map from Call of Duty. The game blasts you with Unreal Tournament announcer voices that were ripped from those games, and the weapons are shoddy retreads of store bought assets that we've seen a million times over. The interface is dull and drab and feels like a stock asset as well, if not just one built into the engine. All in all this game feels like yet another person downloaded the first person shooter tutorial on the Unreal engine creator and said "I can do a game of this." It's like a restaurant showing up out of nowhere and serving pizza that is literally ketchup on a saltine and hoping people will pay for it. After trying numerous times just to get the game working and able to connect to a server, I of course found the game to be dead empty. Only me and the barely functioning stock bot AI to play with. It seems cruel to be this harsh on a game that just launched into early access, but the truth of the matter is that Killstreak won't be the last of its kind, nor is it the first of its kind. It is shovelware of the lowest order and there are a ton of games just like this that launched into early access by hobbyist or student developers who had no idea what they were doing and lose interest in actually doing anything with it only to leave it to die in the purgatory of early access generally without a single update. The screenshots alone should tell you that this is a game to avoid.
