Lets cut to the chase here, I read so many reviews from people who either

a) Haven't played the game
b) Played it and seen approximately 5% of the content
c) Have played it with a opinion already made up before first impressions.

Note: I do like the attention Nether is receiving and think it is great people are contributing to the community wether it's miscronstrude or otherwise.

So I have decided to drop my own review to give people a neutral view on the title.

From the get-go yes, it DOES have a lot of bugs. This can not be denied on any level. Many of these bugs will irritate you and sometimes hamper a game experience for a fair amount. But what you have to realise is this game IS NOT a finished product. It's released as a premium game (no longer alpha/beta on steam) because if i recall (95% sure) due to legal / development restrictions, and changes the devs wished to make in the near future.

~~ Pro's: ~~

One of the only survival games on the market I know which still becomes a challenge when in a group of 3-5 players. This is a very rare achievement of any survival game. Take a second to think of the titles you know, and i'll bet there will only be maybe 1/2 others.

Open world but not to the point you spend 3-4 hours grouping up with your friends. You can pretty much enjoy the experience from the word go. (Has a map system etc for quick location)

Currently the game is receiving a lot of attention from the devs (i.e. VAC support, Map extention - twice its original size, playable Nethers, Tribe system, Territory control, Tribe reputation system and A Crafting system All added I believe within a year) - forgive me if my timeframe is a touch out.

RPG elements. You have a character level, and an account level. as you go through your time in the game performing certain tasks or doing particular actions will award you with EXP (also selling items) this EXP will go towards your account level and character level. Long story short, if you die your character level goes back to 0 (max 31) but your account level will remain. Now at first it seems "oh right if you have max account level I have no hope of survival" however this is not the case, the bonuses are noticable but not game changing. Which surprises me greatly as having this system and trying to keep an equilibrium of balance amount new and old players, isn't an easy task.

Freedom to play how you like. Now for me this is a must have for any Survival game or multiplayer game, to let the players dictate their own style of how THEY want to play the game. If you want to sneak around the wasteland and hunt players? particular tribes? wage a war? that's your call. Or wether you want to try help people or just amass a crazy amount of firepower? play it pretty much strictly PVE. Go ahead.

~~ Cons: ~~

As previously mentioned, yes it is buggy. The vehicles added (now I believe only available from one location) are pretty much unplayable and I have to say now I never see feature (driven around) which is a shame, but I can bet my bottom dollar this will change.

Hacking, this can become an issue, but hell. It's an onlineFPS game. with 10years of Counter-strike behind me through its many stages and with what you have played, this will always be an issue (since the VAC update, the amount of hackers I see is very few thankfully)

In game currency. Now this is a really touchy topic, in game currency does not hinder my experience in any way. I only put it down as a con because quite simply, I dont agree with it as I am sure many others also do not approve. But it is strictly put in place for cosmetic things (i.e. some outfits, masks etc.) in no way does it give me an advantage over the next average Joe in the Wasteland. (also to note I would say 80% of whats buyable via the in game currency, is also available via the free in game money system)


That pretty much sums up the most important things i'd say you may need to know. To summarise for those who want to play an FPS survival game, very atmospheric, and doesn't lose substance despite playing as solo or in a group, which is easy pick up and play with a nice implementation of RPG elements. Then I recommend you give it a shot.

But as before, if you buy this title expecting an already done finished and polished product, then you've come here to early.

Otherwise I look forward to seeing you in the wasteland :)

I recommended it... I don't recommend games... Therefore it's good
