Good game, easy to lose hours into.

Also: MODS!

Great top down shooter with the possibility of CO-OP. Worth the price, even if the game is a bit short.

One of the best games out there, really relaxing and great to play whilst watching some series.

I can not, in my right mind, recommend this game to anyone in it's current unpolished state. It has literally been driving up the wall with it's annoyances, bugs and glitches. This is not a game that should've been brought to market, not in it's current state and ESPECIALLY not for this price. I do feel the game can be something awesome once fixes have been brought to it but... Should you buy it now? No. Just... No.

Annoyance number 1.
Whenever I run further than what I guess to be 30 meters I get a massive stutter, as the game loads in it's assets. During this I can be teleported ANOTHER 30 meters ontop of it because the game might get stuck, but you running will just continue.

Annoyance number 2.
What's with the start up sequence of this game? I am sorry Funcom but what in the ♥♥♥♥ are you loading in that start up sequence to make it alright for us to see that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ introduction trailer over.. and over.. and over.. again. Honestly whenever the game crashes that start up sequence is just like another hit on top of the annoyance of a game crashing.

Annoyance number 3.
Instead of loading the full ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ server list BEFORE I put filters on it, how about you let ME choose the filters and THEN hit refresh. I prefer to not wait 5 more minutes on a server list with over 4000 servers to call home for.

Annoyance number 4.
I've had to turn off the music as whenever I load into the game I hear that same soundtrack over...and over.... and over.... and over... that it is doing my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ head in.

Annoyance number 5.
I could jump off a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mountain and not die yet if I jump off the flat roof of a 2 by 2 ♥♥♥♥ shack with no second story I'll die.... What.

Annoyance number 6 to whatever other annoyances I had.
Poor game design choices, balance issues (however balance issues perceived were mostly early to mid game), lowering graphics quality only makes issues (And FPS) worse.

I am sorry what did you do to the Unreal engine to get those results Funcom, how much did you torture it to get it to let this game ♥♥♥♥ the bed so badly. The biggest insult to me? The 29,99 euro price. Even with early access games there is a treshhold with the amount of bugs/glitches/issues one can take and this game, for me, has clearly passed it by a kilometer or two. I don't know what sales person in your company had the bright idea to release this game in this state but you should probably fire him/her.

Love the game, too bad that there's not much in it yet. I know it'll come over time but I have the feeling the lack of content will scare off people retain them. I am definitely playing this but the mod will keep a place in my heart too.

I've been busy gathering people to play this with me but with the partial maps, a big problem shows itself. It's hard to find others if you don't know the map (Partially) out of your head.

One of my friends mentioned the fact the meters (hunger, thirst, blood) being a bit...weird and likes the mod more when it comes to hardcore playing.

All the negative- and blurry-line-points aside. Awesome game. A lot of new ideas have flourished in an environment not blocked by hard coded parts and legal problems which you normally have on modding a game rather than making one out of nothing. The handcuffs are an awesome idea and so are emotes. Although I wished there was more of a quick menu for that instead of the f1 to f12 or so buttons (I don't know all the buttons out of my head sorry). Something else new that has been added in the standalone is attachments, the way to make your gun really...YOUR gun. You have scopes, bayonets, tripods, ALOT of attachments already. I like the fact that customization of your weapons is now a feature. I mean you can even spray paint your Mosin Nagant if you wanted to! ...No really you can!

In short ...Love ...It. I can't think of any better zombie survival game out there! Besides something a game like Seven Days To Die doesn't have is a Dev team that cares. Don't trust me on this? See for yourself. Look at the first review in the review list, read it and then read the Dev comment. I know Dean Hall wants to give you his vision. I know Dean Hall wants to finish this project. I know The Fun Pimps want money, that's all.

This might be a bit criticising another game's devs but I also want this to be THE example of what some companies do and I hope that this review not only makes you like DayZ and it's weird ways but also stay on the look out when buying a new game and CERTAINLY early access. Not all of them want to finish the product.

Edit: Typos.
