What a Surprise!!
I am in shock, this game came out of no where for me. What can I say, this game is very well made for a 40 dollar game. The horde effects of the zombies are superb, weapons and class customization are layered. I am very satisfied with my purchase. The developer deserves praise!!

Left For Dead 3
This game is a true spiritual successor to Left For Dead 2 in every way. Very fun, especially with friends. The amount of zombies coming at you is borderline overwhelming at times, but it’s what makes it such a rush to play. Great Graphics & Sound. I love how you can custom select class types, that way the squad can work together better. I’ve played every level so far with my brother, and we’ve only been able to beat about half of them on the easiest difficulty. The game is fantastic. I wish there was an option for first person camera, and more levels would be great but I’m sure they’ll come out with new ones in the future. An unexpected surprise for me here, highly recommended!

Zombies and…..more zombies….repetitive swarms of zombies
Basically you need to play this with at least a couple of friends to have anything close to a good time. I was extremely disappointed that there are only 4 different locations for the game each with 3 chapters. There are 6 difficulty levels but without at least 2 friends you’ll either be stuck with the A.I. that don’t do anything to accomplish mission objectives or you’re stuck with the broken matchmaking system which is drop in/ drop out and often I ended up joining a mission that was 1 major fight or “swarm” away from being completed and you get the same base XP regardless of joining time. Or you get matched up with trolls who purposely don’t participate or do anything to help. There are only 4 character to choose from per mission area and whether or not you get to pick a character you want depends on overall level across the maybe 5 or 6 different classes. The difficulty levels and ridiculous amount of zombies may change but there is no character customization or weapon custumization. You can’t pick and choose which attachments you want to use or even mix and match and the overall number is different guns and other weapons is vastly sparse compared to another game that game out at around the same time, The Division 2. The only fun I really had was in PVP where you go against waves of zombies and other players but I was pleased to find out that “supply points” that you need for weapon and class upgrades carryover into the “campaign.”Thats a good thing considering you only earn about 150 per completed mission and just the 2nd weapon upgrade alone is 500 and the class perk upgrades reach about 350 once you hit the 3rd tier. I played this game for an entire weekend, took a break and came back feeling completely empty like a zombie myself.

Looks like a clone of Left 4 Dead, good with brainless shooting of zombies, but the overall too slim
At first glance, there was little promise here. A movie tie-in to a pretty bad movie, so long after it, and clearly taking more than inspiration from another existing popular franchise? Yet, what at first seems like just another shallow Left 4 Dead clone reveals itself to be so much more, it feels more a true successor to its inspiration, definitely one to pick up for groups of friends looking for a new game to enjoy together, even more so for the Left 4 Dead fans out there. If the stability issues can be resolved, this is going to superb and needs to be on more people’s radar. But the gameplay far too repetitive to score a hit in our hearts. Consider playing it with friends, or pick it up at a sale. I paid almost full price, shaking my head…

No local four player, you have to play online with random people or friends!
CRASH CRASH CRASH Game crashes about every episode, no local four player, you can only play online with random people or friends. Playing solo is horrible most in part because of the three AI character’s. Game would be ten times better if you could connect four controllers and play on that one console. I was hopeing to play with my three kids but nope major disappointment, should of saved my money. It will probably be on sale next week so wait for the sale.

If you were hoping to play a new installment of Left 4 Dead, this isn’t it.
This game has a lot of problems with online connectivity, and if you want to play with friends the ONLY option is online. You will get randomly disconnected from games at the beginning of a match, midway through a match, and even at the very end of the match when you play online. This means you lose ALL progress you’ve made. (You gain XP and level up your characters and weapons in this game) This is after the patch 1.03 that supposedly addressed many of those connection issues.Another negative aspect is the design of co-op gameplay. If you choose to play online, you do not get to choose where you start in the level. It will often force you to join another player/group of players who have already made progress in the level. This means even if you’ve never played the level you might start a game two thirds done.Finally, you have no say in whether another person joins you, if you play online, even if you have a full group. This is further complicated by the fact that people are often disconnected from the game, so if you and your friend are playing together, and they get disconnected, you will find that their slot is very quickly filled with a random person and you no longer can play with your friend. Plus, they lost all of their xp progress, so if you are trying to stay at a the same level as your group, good luck.Finally, the game is too short. There isn’t as much content as either Left 4 Dead, even if you count the leveling grind designed around the difficulty options.

Rather beat Days Gone?
MadDog rather release early to beat Days Gone than releasing a playable game? Talk about customer care. What’s the point of buying a game on release day if you have to wait for bug fixes to be able to play it?

Just think of it as left4dead 3
Overall World War Z is very ambitious game. Very ambitious at being Left 4 Dead 3. That being said it is by far the best l4d clone that I’ve played so far on consoles.The “storyline” is exactly the same as l4d. 4 episodes, with 3 or so chapters in each episode.In each chapter you are forced to get from point A to point B, by doing task like setting defenses, finding keys, protecting things for a certain amount of time, then at the end of the last chapter just like in left 4 dead you have to hold out until rescue comes as waves attack. If you’re looking for a story, you really won’t get one.Neither my friend or I liked the Moscow missions at all, they were stupidly set up, and the final chapter in Tokyo was such a letdown and anticlimactic.I was very surprised to how much guns and classes are in the game.You get to pick from 6 class, which all have an extensive skill tree to unlock. These classes give you your starting weapons, and special ability. These abilities range from grenades, Molotov’s, healing stem guns to explosive ammo for the team. I haven’t looked much into the skill trees, but they give abilities like fasting healing, more damage after a certain amount of kills, hold more ammo, etc. there’s a good 20+ per class, all different.You also unlock different variants of guns as you use them and get kills with them. These variants change the appearance, sights, magazine size, sway speed, silencers, damage + more. There’s probably about 15-20 guns in the game, and they all feel different!The special zombies are all imports from l4d as well. I honestly don’t know the name of any of them, as my friend and I just yell hunter or charger anytime we them. Theses one that jumps on you and scratches you(hunter), charges at you and pounds you(charger), screams and alerts the horde(witch), makes your screen all foggy and damages you(mix of spitter+smoker).None are that good, nor that powerful. Upset there’s no bosses like a Tank.Graphics are top notch! Gore and zombies look absolutely incredible, and seeing the zombie hordes charging at you and climbing up walls is absolutely terrifying. We’re not talking 10-20 zombies, were talking 100-200+ charging at any given time.There’s also a multiplayer mode as well. I only played a few matches and I thought it was trash. 4vs4 with zombies roaming the map, and a horde coming every few minutes. The modes are typical domination, death match, king of the hill, etc.Players seemed to be a tad laggy, and once you pick your class at the start you can’t change it again.Main issues I have.No private matches. My friend and I don’t want to play with two ranbobs, we’d rather just play with AI.No vote to kick.While the swarm of hundreds of zombies looks cool, they aren’t very effective. When they come you have mini guns, mortars andher traps to kill them all.Special zombies are too weak. Needed another 1 or 2 in the game.Overall I am very impressed with this game. I was a big fan of l4d growing up and bought both on release date, and to me this is the perfect game for fans of it on the next generation. For $39 this game is a steal, there just so much to it that should keep you, with replay ability to the missions.
