The new map and actual content for the game is very high quality, they have really sung their heart out working on making the actual gameplay work well and look better, although they crashed hard with the UI changes and major performance bugs and crashes, which as of now are being worked on as far as I'm aware.

The UI design changes are a complete step in the wrong direction, it is the perfect definition of over-engineered, where there's far too many screens that could be simplified and consolidated into one screen, boxes being oversized and not fitting on the whole screen making you think there is more to the menu but it only being the second half of just one box, it's extremely frustrating. I know it sounds like an extreme exaggeration, but with how slow some of the screens load and how much more tedious it is to sort out hunters and look for what you want it makes me nauseous sifting through all the selections again and again ad nauseam. I truly do hope that Crytek fixes the concerns with the UI because it does have some nice features, despite the plethora of bad design choices, it really needs to be simplified and condensed into fewer screens and selections, and to fix the bugs with remembering some of the options for the hunter selection screen.

I'm marking it as negative review in hopes that maybe enough of them will convince Crytek to do something about this, because as it stands it's pretty unbearable to navigate the UI, which is a fairly large part of the game since you HAVE to use it in order to play the rest of the game.

For 5 dollars this game is an absolute must have, it's extremely relaxing and has such a wonderful charm to it I haven't found anywhere else. Even if it isn't a game I'll play often it's something I know I'll always come back to.

I stopped playing the game for a while, but after on and off gameplay it just doesn't seem to be as good anymore, the original Insurgency is still better, sure Sandstorm looks better but I just don't get anywhere near the same gratification from it compared to Insurgency. Also on an unrelated note its still sad to see that Mikee left, he was one of the best VAs and Lead Game Designers.

For Rock and Stone!

I'm disapointed I didn't obtain this game sooner because it is easily one of the most fun games I've played, period.

Early Access Review
ULTRAKILL on its own, a very solid game. I started playing around the time soon after Greed came out and really enjoyed watching the game's development while playing it, and how large the game has gotten compared to just then is insane, it really seems like its a game that will do great and will be remembered as one of those great indie shooters...

What concerns me, though is how toxic the community is, gatekeeping inexperienced players and just generally being very frustrating to talk to or even discuss the game with, as some parts of the community reek of elitist ideologies that if you don't view the game the same way they do, or cannot preform to a certain skill level, you can expect to be ridiculed or backseated to high hell. Which is a shame, because aside from the lowlives who possess these qualities, the art and creativity that come from this game are nothing short of phenomenal, and deserve to be appreciated.

If you do plan on playing ULTRAKILL, avoid the broader community as a service to yourself, it is a truly fun game, with an amazing soundtrack and game mechanics that even if you are not particularly great at reaction shooters, can still be a great time.

Michael Garcia, the infamous ghost of being annoying as hell and giving no evidence, Michael Jackson wasnt fun to play against either really.

Its annoying that one of the main mechanics of this game is that you have to move around in your playspace, which isnt easy for people lacking one or having too small a playspace where they will always hit their table or bed, also the removing stuff from the game thing sparked a huge argument with a friend which i am no longer friends with who was really annoying about it, lucky break i guess.
