I was a day one purchaser of this game - I thought it had great had potential, but the dev either doesn't have the means or ability to realise their vision. It will be going on 4 years in EA at the end of 2025. I'll be happy to change this if we see some significant steps toward 1.0 in the main branch. I tried experimental coop but it was too unstable to enjoy or even start most of the time.

no local splitscreen in campaign mode, and the game hasn't been updated in 14 months at the time of writing, the game is pretty much abandonned, i saw some splitscreen of it on youtube but that's only one one challege, i did't try the solo mode because i bought it only for local splitscreen

I only got this for the Multiplayer aspect, which was exactly as I was hoping. It was interesting, fun and a bit challenging. There has been a few months now since the patch came which addes Co-op. The developer has said that he is working on the game, but there are no real roadmap and the timetables supplied has not been followed. I feel like this game will be abandoned, even though the game has a chance to make this man filthy rich. I can't recommend the pricetag with the limited content & content updates.

[h1] You don't get what you pay for [/h1] The price point of early access is no where near fair to what the game offers at an early access stage. Like many games they offer you regular updates, A strong base for the game, and an appropriate planning for the games release. As a singular dev to what seems as a passion project it shouldn't be charged this high as you can find indie game devs or smaller gaming communities with [u] much more material for far more little to none [/u] to spend for it. As of now this game has its fair share of bugs, a hollow campaign with some levels being unclear for the objective, pointless puzzles(e.g Theres a locked door, but heres the key behind you) Like what kind of shit is that. It's sad to see that the playerbase has abandoned this game if it had more structure on launch perhaps having multiplayer figured out that would've attracted bigger groups playing on release of early access. With multiple playable characters in one game designed to each handle a specific task, it would make more sense to focus on the multiplayer aspect as switching between your own personnel just to drive a truck is just not ideal. You're telling me this highly trained security team can't step on the gas. There's been a lot of work put in for a singular developer which is quite impressive considering how the game looks now but with realistic expectations, if you are aware of your capabilities and knowledge on game development you should know better than to charge your player base compared to what you can deliver. [h1] In Summary [/h1] [b] Positives [/b] -Unique game mechanics -Decent reactive physics and ragdolls -Fun equipment and weapons -Atmospheric environment -Variety of enemies [b] Negatives: [/b] -Tedious objectives -Unreasonable map layouts -Overpriced -Recycled objectives -Faulty co-op advertisement -No updates -No [i] real [/i] story -Janky team controls Price games to what you deliver, not what you hope it to be
