Solid survival game, idk what is wrong with the negative reviewers. Almost didn't get this but my friends and I are having fun. Shooting is good. Graphics are good. Really nice to be able to build a base and not worry if it will be destroyed on a public server. Also love that it's not open world and we're not spending hours walking to find loot. Overall interesting game design for a survival game, can't believe this is made by one person. Hope they aren't discouraged and keep working on it12 found this helpful
First off what is this trash? Video looks better than the actual trash u get when u load into the game.11 found this helpful
Do not buy it, the game runs 110 fps on a 4090, maps are small, keys are needed for every area and when you get anywhere there are zeds everywhere which gives you zero chance to loot.. total wasted time to download and try.. i should get paid for playing this ♥♥♥♥ and wasting my time7 found this helpful
