    Fun to play with friends but gets repetitive after awhile, sometimes has some game breaking bugs

    Used to be on of the fines coop games which could remember the days of Doom. Yet Developers shoot themselves in the foot when they thought microtransactions would be nice in an early access state game. Tottally unaccaptable. Now they try to change the DLC formula into MTs just to milk even more money from the consumer. Its optional bla bla. Last game ive ever buy from this company.

    For an early release game, Killing Floor has definitely been doing quite well in terms of its player base, community and developer support (which some have claimed that it has been lacking in recent times).

On the technical part, the game runs very well (I feel is even better than the original KF) and is extremely smooth at all times even when I'm running it on the higher settings and never have I once encountered any game breaking glitch/bug that hinders my experience. However, one has to keep in mind that the game at its current moment (10-18-16) has been in early access for quite some time thought I suppose it is pretty close to being released, as there's only one more perk that hasn't come out yet, but that's just a mere speculation.

    Honestly, I think it's worth the price if you enjoy the original KF, but one thing I really dislike the most is the sale of cosmetic items which feels like an absolute lift from Valve's games, It's just me but man is it a huge eyesore. But with that said those cosmetic items have zero impact on the game of course, and it's not going to given a player an any sort of an edge over others. This is going to be an even greater game when it's release, but currently all we can is keep our eyes peeled and our hopes high.    … Expand

    The original Killing Floor is one of my favorite online fps games. The game had character. It was dark, it was sinister and -at times- brutal. It required you to choose a perk and play it well.

It required you to choose a perk and play it well. The maps were unique and fun. The sequel, however, despite having much better graphics, did not click with me the same way the original game did. From the way Killing Floor 2 is designed, it is apparent that the game wants to appeal to more casual gamers and reach a wider audience. Yes, the graphics are good (the first game did not have good graphics but it had good visual style). But the sinister atmosphere is lost. The game is less claustrophobic, less scary. The metal soundtrack is still good. And the gameplay is easier in comparison to the first game. In the original, even if you played in the normal difficulty, all players had to play their perk well to survive. You had to have a strategy. In Killing Floor 2, zeds are coming from pretty much everywhere, leaving little room for strategic team play. Now you can use any weapon from any perk, and consequently perks lose their significance. The majority of maps -with some exceptions- do not feel the same. Gunplay, on the other hand, is still very good.

    Do keep in mind though that the above criticisms come from someone who liked the first game with a passion. I was very excited about Killing Floor 2 and it did not live up to my expectations. That said, if you are a newcomer to Killing Floor, I still think you will have great fun. However, if you are coming from the original who loved Killing Floor 1 for the same reasons that I did, you may find yourself disappointed. Killing Floor 2 reminds me of how I felt about Diablo 2, as a fan of the original Diablo. Diablo 2 was more popular, offered smooth gameplay, had better graphics. But it did not come anywhere close to Diablo 1.

    The enemy AI, animations and attack patterns are different enough and well done. The game encourages tactic and cooperation. It rewards skill.

    The player animations look a bit weird, at least partly.

    The objective mode is uninspired and boring sadly, because objectives and quest could have made the game more rich in variety. I mean the standard mode is fun, but there are no other objectives than killing everything.

    So it's a game to play every now and then with longer breaks inbetween.    … Expand

    20% kf1 50% left for dead 2 30% payday 2.

    Game is a lot easier than the first and is console peasant friendly like Auto-rotate to enemy and press V slap the zombie looking at you. It is way more fast paced has really nice weapons actual downside is there are only 2 original bosses rest are copy paste and waves has very little amount of zombies when you play with 4+people.

    Developers are so bad at creating maps that they basically create the same narrow map 10x times with different looks and names workshop maps are way better.

    Edit:Game will go to utter ♥♥♥♥♥ with prestige system and weapon upgrade system they cant add real content no new original bosses,mod permissions,no fookin coop so they do stupid ♥♥♥♥ like that this game is dead on my viewing apparatus.
    nobody is even playing this game they should stop dividing players with difficulty level there should only be 2 difficult levels A)Normal humans who want little-medium challenge B)Tryhard ♥♥♥♥ who wants his team to coordinate like a swat team then finish the wavekilling 15 fleshpounds 10 scrakes 5robot minibosses and a couple hundred of trash zeds and there should be a boss at the end of every round otherwise It would be too easy for these players    … Expand

    Хорошая сетевая мясорубка с отличной механикой стрельбы, отменными анимациями оружия и разделки самих зедов.
    Имеется масса режимов. От выживания до сражения с реальными людьми в роли монстров.

    Так же игра с каждым крупным обновлением, таких я понял происходит, по четыре раза в год. То завозят новые карты, пушки и прочее.
    Из минусов - возможность покупать за реальные деньги: внешний вид оружия, одежды, эмоции и НЕКОТОРОЕ ОРУЖИЕ. (Но пушки покупать не обязательно, не парьтесь. Учитывая, что я ни рубля, ни цента не задонатил я опробовал все орудия. Просто если донатная пушка есть у кого то в матче, то все могут ей пользоваться).
    Ну и некоторые не критические технические проблемы (долгая загрузка и некоторые вылеты). Со временем вылетав становилось гораздо меньше.

    A solid horde shooter/FPS game. A lot of weapons and characters to choose from. Great replayability.

    While it's a shame Tripwire didn't improve enemy variety or add a new co-operative mode, Killing Floor 2 has some of the most satisfying shooting around as the old formula holds up well thanks to high levels of polish, good perk variety, and solid maps.

    The game might not be very friendly towards newbies (it doesn’t teach you how to play and therefore forces you to resort to trial and error) but once you get hold of it and gather a reliable team you’ll spend many enjoyable evenings with it. [01/2017, p.42]

    Cooperative action Killing Floor 2 pleads for attention with richer content, explicitly displayed violence and perfectly optimized technology. It is nearly like the previous installment, but we could expect anything else. The attractiveness of the game increases the creativity of its community.
