    good idea of the game concept. but the game came like many other games to early ...the grafik is "good" the controlls are " okay" the perks and the charackters are way to lame ( need more than just 4 )
    the fight system i the biggestproblem. i refuned the game cause its just who hit first and nothing more

    The concept of this game is great. Quite original a new and interesting idea but with a ton of flaws. It is truly upsetting how bad the game works. Great art-style, very good character and map design but a huge lack of content and a terribly unbalanced and broken combat system.
    In my opinion this has no business being out of early access. Hope this game gets better.

    The melee is extremely basic, seeing 2 Robins or Mariannes fighting each other is just cringe and makes no sense (should have been a real asymmetrical game with PvE elements instead), the controls feel clunky, you can be killed in unbreakable animations which also mess up your camera and thus orientation, the balance is completely broken, the netcode is horrible, the matchmaking is atrocious, the pricing model (Season Pass) feels scammy.

    Its already losing huge amounts of players. Plus for a new release it werent many in the first place. Even streamers rip it apart. See Fairlight for example.
    Reminds a lot about Last Year and other games that died fast because the developers wouldnt listen to their fans. I guess thats normal nowadays. Its the fans fault, not the ones who made the games, movies, etc.
    Seeing how hey have Robin Hood, Marianne and Little John more or less properly depicted, yet turned the friar Tuck into a "mystic" (and named him Tooke), not resembling a friar at all (obviously only because of the woke dictatorship), its reason enough to boycott this game anyway.
    That fact alone really doesnt make me care if they improve this game in the other things.
    Get woke, go broke, for all I care.    … Expand

    I purchased this game in good faith, but the game mechanics were massively flawed at the start.

As many have commented, the winch system was likely the single worst design decision, causing thousands of players to quit on that mechanic alone. Coupled with bugs and hit registration issues, the game quickly lost their playerbase, and it is a ghost town now. The developers did try to incorporate a PvE co-op mode into the game, but too many people left. I actually bought the game for the Pve co-op but matchmaking is impossible given the low player base. In retrospect, this should have been a pure single-player PvE game without the winch mechanics, and it would have likely done better. Lastly, we have not seen any communication from the devs in a long time, which further implies that the game is dead long-term and the devs have given up on it. Very disapppointing, and I will be very apprehensive to support these developers in the future.… Expand

    So i was really hyped about his game (commercial on steam) . I though there will be a setup like the payday my team with all this classes trying to steal from the rich . i didn't my to repeat the same objective again and again as soon i could upgrade my character and my base.

    So my pve experience is already dead . But who knows in the near future maybe a dlc or something with fix that    So i was really hyped about his game (commercial on steam) .

    About the pvp... i dont like it. First of all the matchmaking is really bad my first game was me with another 3 players of 5-10 lvl and the opposite team was players of over 30 lvl.... You don't want to know what happened in the game...also the pvp is so much repeatable as the "pve" the same objective over and over again.

    3 is my rating cause i can see much potential there . But right now the game is not funny for me!    … Expand

    Вроде никогда до этого рецензий здесь не писал, но это просто пиздец. Кривой трэш, иначе не описать. В пвп происходит какое-то вакханальное месиво, в пве напарники в самом начале поднимают тревогу и дохнут, так еще если вы пройдете этап с кражей ключа то саму сокровищницу хуй знает где искать и вы лазете в каких-то ебенях ориентируясь лишь по примерной области.

    Это самая отстойная покупка со времен Anthem. Всего 1 режим, 4 героя, несколько карт, но все выглядят максимально одинаково, кривая боевка, скудная кастомизация, нулевая прогрессия, ужасный матчмейкинг, долгий поиск каток и сами катки затянутые. И дальше будет только хуже, разрабы будут год пилить скинчики - это все предстоящее развитие игры.Это самая отстойная покупка со времен Anthem.

    Haven't had this much fun in a multiplayer in a long time. It's really solid, but can take a little time to unpack the tactical/strategic depth -- stick it around, it's worth the investment. A lot of the bad reviews seem like they were expecting a run/gun game, not a stealth team-based heist with consequences for losing map control, failing to time the final push, and punishing failureHaven't had this much fun in a multiplayer in a long time. It's really solid, but can take a little time to unpack the tactical/strategic depth -- stick it around, it's worth the investment. A lot of the bad reviews seem like they were expecting a run/gun game, not a stealth team-based heist with consequences for losing map control, failing to time the final push, and punishing failure to use stealth. There's a lot of depth packed into what seems like a deceptively simple game loop. Now in fairness there are a few rough patches, like match making, but the game play itself is tight. Full endorsement, and I only endorse excellent games.… Expand

    Good game, good mechanics, nice graphics, teamplay based coop/pve/Pvp. Every character has his strengths and weaknesses, good balanced. I played 40h and every character.
    I really hope for more content coming soon, that the game doesn‘t die.

    Трейлер и скриншоты воспринимаются намного лучше, чем эта игра на самом деле ... Классические персонажи - танк, лучник, ассассин ... и универсальный боец ​​... Пока выглядит сыровато, хоть и видно, что игра делалась не дилетантами. Разочаровал баланс по уровням, т.к. в 1м бою бросило в команду: я - 1 уровень, и напарники 31, 3, 68 уровней персонажей, против 96, 73, 44 и 98 уровней ...Трейлер и скриншоты воспринимаются намного лучше, чем эта игра на самом деле ...

Звук вроде не плохой, сделано добротно. Цена как по мне (450 грн. Для Украины) завышена, т.к. хоть убейте!

    Good that Epic made it free so I didn't have to waste my money on the most **** game I've ever played, the AI is dumber than an RTS game from 2005, not well optimized, also Lack of INGAME chat, I can't insult the other **** when i play 4v4, the hitboxes of the other players are -10/10
    Basically don't waste your time and money playing this **** game Payday 2 is better

    The game has a lot of potential, but at this moment there are like 3 maps, and only 1 objective (same for pve and pvp) so the game becomes repetitive and boring really fast. Some bugs are also here.
    Game look really nice, graphics and fight, but every game looks almost the same. Matchmaking is also not perfect. There is no option to report cheating players so.....

    I enjoyed the atmosphere, assassination-based combat, enjoyable bow shooting mechanics, varied character classes, and cool maps. The whole concept is great, but Hood needed more work, because numerous minor flaws and a sole game mode make it look like an early access title. I also believe it was possible to squeeze much more out of this darker twist on the Robin Hood setting. It is not an excellent game right now, but it is enjoyable enough to be addictive, and I’m looking forward to future updates, hoping they will unlock Hood’s full potential. [08/2021, p.76]

    Hood: Outlaws & Legends is a PvPvE multiplayer game that is based on a potentially interesting idea but which, unfortunately, suffers from a superficial technical realization and obvious balance problems.

    Most baffling of all is the way each match concludes. [Issue#360, p.112]
