Not gonna lie, this is a hard-fought thumbs-up. While multiplayer is somewhat fun if you have friends, and drastically less fun if you don't, surviving is hard. And it's not zombies, or the environment, that make it hard; it's wild animals. Bears, wolves, mountain lions, etc. can sense you from comically large distances, charge at you at speeds that don't let you catch a break, bring you down in 3 bites, all while taking four 12-gauge shotgun shells to the face and not even flinching. Good thing is, they added an option to cancel enemy spawn, which nullifies that problem at the cost of slower progression (combat is the most effective XP source) and meat and leather being harder to acquire.
