Sorry, TB videos are totally boring and not so easy to make a decision for puchase to me.

We ask is it worth it, yes or not? and why?
I don't wanna spend 25 minutes watching this video nor scrolling the vid to search for interesting stuff rather than blah blah blah.

Is it worth it? yes or no? Resonable time for a review vid IMO is 5 minutes, 25minutes is a whole tv show.


Is it worth it? Yes or no? why it is? why it is no?

Thanks

You can't go wrong at that price... if you liked alien shooter or zombie shooter you'll like this for sure.

No, you didn't have to ask. It took about 3 seconds to find the bright green Metascore of 45/100 on the store page.

[dave_]

Glad you did ask, OP. Nice to see the sense of tradition continued.

[GigaClon]

look at the page on metascore. There is no saving of progress.

[DnS-Dei]

look at the page on metascore. There is no saving of progress.

That's not true, game progress(including weapons, upgrades, score, bonus, ...) is saved at the end of each mission when the stats are shown, checkpoints during one missions are only used for the current play session.

You know what?

I am going to purchase it right now.

I am absolutely tired of trolls.

Thanks for appearing, it is something I appreciate very much, no matter for.

Buckle up.

[KaylaKaze]

I'm thinking of buying it just because DNS staff showed up to discuss it.

[TheVentilator]

Double post!

[TheVentilator]

I dont care what others say. Its only the price of a chocolate, so i'm buyng it right now.

If there is a 50/50 chance of buying a game, its better to just buying it right away. Especially at these prices.

Its not worth it to spend maybe up to hours checking a game's thread by checking opinions and still maybe not buy it.

Better to wait for indie face kick bundle.

Boring Games in indy pack, gonna buy that game direct from steam.

[NC37]

I was gifted this at launch for a friend. We played around with it for maybe a couple hours before never playing again. Game needed a lot of work. Performance alone was terrible and the COOP was so buggy it was unplayable. If it is better now that is great but personally it is hard for us to even see it in our games list, much less want to try it again.

[videogames10]

I enjoyed the game. It's got zombies, it has atmosphere, it has re-play value and it's definitely worth the $2.49 sale price. The only problem I had with it was the high level of difficulty at certain points - the bosses in particular - and the abrupt ending. I imagine the game is much easier in co-op play, but the difficulty really needs to be turned down a notch for solo play.

[Phoenix210]

The zombies eat WAY too much lead. In fact they're so tough that it cripples the gameplay. The result is perma back paddling while shooting zombies about 3 metres away from your character.

If you're ok with that, it's a fun game, I guess.

[Friendliest]

yeah me too. it's a rare game I wouldn't spend <$2 on (2-pack ofc.)

but based on what other ppl have said about it being "abandonware" or whatever, here's hoping DNS ppl will be around to make fixes, in the event there are any really nasty bugs w/ this.

Just go to 22:40 the guy gives his verdict. It's pretty accurate. It's fun and thats what its all about right?

[MSanbel]

I remember you mentioned this on saints row 3 forum too. You love to troll others with Metascore, don't you?

[WO Saotome A.]

Anyone who was old enough to play mature games on the SNES knows that this isn't exactly the most original game in the bunch, but it's actually fun, longer than you would expect an indie game to be, and surprising challenging despite the simple premise.

My only cons about this game is that some times it get's too dark, so it becomes a little annoying not to be ganked and either the game hates my GPU or it hates the game, I run on an ATI Radeon HD 5700 and turning down the GFX didn't helped much.

So overall, its quite worth the small price, not sure if I would felt the same if paid full price, because playing with constant stutter and low fps is somewhat annoying after a while, but reading some comments, a lot of people don't have the same problem, so hey, it's a bus pass price, worst case scenario it's another game on your virtual shelf.

Thanks for clearing that up, bought a pack for me and my gal. People who live and breathe on Metascores need to get a clue. Nice that you guys sell a two-pack as well.

That's why some like to start an is it worth it thread. They trust the Steam community.

I don't agree with the "it's $2 you can't go wrong". Some games can be so buggy that it requires a reboot.

[flamedance58]

For the price I picked the double pack up as I'm bound to have a friend who'll co-op with me.

I have some issues though with the game...

1. It hogs a lot of resources for some reason. I can run MW3 on almost max settings, plus quite a few other games..heck I've played the MMO that this game is based on and I ran that perfectly. Yet I'm bogged down at 15fps? Even at the lowest settings just barely past 20fps.

2. Not enough save points; I'm at the 2nd zone and there's this point where you meet the first Boomer (It's a direct rip from L4D) and there's so save...after that you meet another and I died. Now I have to fight both again? Need more save points!

3. Reload Speed; I know you can upgrade it but god this guy takes forever! He takes like 5secs where many games have it take 1-2 and it's such a pain.

4. The stamina/roll meter...Seriously? Why even have a meter if it's good for 1 roll and that's it? I'd rather have something like a hold Shift to run faster and a double tap of Space to use up all the Stamina to roll. As zombies easily outrun you.

========

In the end the only thing that makes me thing this game is worth is the price point.

[smooth]

this looks like dead nation on ps3. is that what this is?

[UnrealZero]

What a waste, even with it on sale I felt like I paid too much.

[flamedance58]

Nope, really different. Don't touch this poor excuse of a zombie game. I think I should of bought Containment instead.

[David_Fielder]

I highly suggest this game if you have a buddy to play with , for how cheap it is currently i don't think you'll get a better bang for your buck. Buy a two pack I'm enjoying it so far.

[BadMojo]

Not bad....

Nice atmosphere...can run 1920x1080

Was pissed when I stopped after getting to checkpoint
and when i came back ws at the beginning again...so you have to finish a level before quitting ( not good design)

Still...fun time waster...well worth $2.50

Did lag at one point when horde came after me
