I wish I could give this game a mixed option. I love co-op games so much in the classic Left 4 Dead style, and I do enjoy this game. The gun play is a lot of fun and there's a lot more weapons to choose from than in classic titles.

But here's the problem; I play solo on almost everything. I suffer from adulthood, so when I'm done with work for the day, I don't want to spend two hours trying to find teammates that are more invested in the game than racial slurs. The bots in this game are GOD AWFUL. In Easy difficulty, you can plow through the first half of the game, but the second half starts to get sticky with the AI. The first half on Medium difficulty is a good challenge, but the second half is practically unbeatable. The bots are constantly walking directly into your line of fire, getting stuck on everything, they don't heal when you ever actually need it, and good luck playing with any melee builds.

Also, you're not allowed to unlock anything when you play solo. Cards, cosmetics, achievements, etc.
Why are the devs punishing players for playing alone? Not everybody has groups of friends available to play games, especially by the time you're actually old enough to buy this game.

Another aspect that irked me was how uninteresting the level design is. None of these maps are very memorable. Many levels start in the same "hub world" area with little variety as you progress towards the "fresh" maps. There were a couple of maps that were pretty cool, but for the most part, it's all pretty copy/paste, especially when you compare it to the contrast of classic titles.

If they fix the AI and the solo progression, I'll gladly update this, but for now I'd wait for a sale. Especially if you play alone.

This game rocks

It's good

Holy sh*t this game is good

Water everywhere and not a drop to drink

This is the Witcher 3 of post-apocolyptic video games.

By which I mean that all other post-apocolyptic games feel like trash now after playing this.

This game is excellent, and has a real, "play your way" feel to it. I love the fact that you can be a hero, or be a villan without the game really enforcing either side. In fact, it supports playing either way. For example, there's an achievement for locating every single employee upon Talos 1, dead or otherwise. On the other hand, there is an achievement for killing every single human aboard Talos 1. This includes story related characters. The freedom to follow your own ethics, and solve puzzles your own way was what really stood out to me in this game.

If you were a fan of Bioshock, definitely give this game a try.

While I despised this game and it's creators at first, I have to say that it's impressive how much dedication they put into it these past two years. It's a good game now, just not worth the $60 price. I'd say maybe $30 would be a more acceptable cost for this.

Let me start by saying that usually I despise driving based games. Need 4 Speed kept me entertained for half an hour before I lost all interest and never opened it again.

But this game man. Holy crap, it's so good.
The camera shake, the dust flying, the engine reving while you fly across the desert...
This game just feels so right. I mean, yeah, scrap hunting gets repetitive and boring or whatever, but everything else? Fantastic.
Also, you can run this on like, anything. So, bonus points there.

Auto-save crashes it more than I do.
