    Honestly, I'm quite enjoying this the little bit of time I've spent with this so far. The controls do feel a little wonky with a k+m but i'm sure it will be fixed since it seems like the same issue that Revelations had on launch. A controller is heavily recommended, even on the store page. Personally, I would stay out of the forums for a little while until alot of the anger subsides in it.Honestly, I'm quite enjoying this the little bit of time I've spent with this so far.

    This is by no means a perfect game. However, with that said, I did and will continue to enjoy playing this game. From my first hour I can tell that this game does feel more like a free to play game than a retail game. Amazingly enough though, The game feels balanced with how you can properly strategize to win a round.

    I'd recomend it if you want to play an arcade style shooter with zombies for extra challenge. However, try to get it on a sale if you can. The cost seems a bit high for the content. (They might add more content down the road)    … Expand

    Definetly Reccomend if on sale somewhere. Fun little tactical shooter, quick matches. Mouse Aiming right now is iffy but it works fine on a controller. You can get used to the Mouse controls by just turning up your mouse sensitivity. Might not be perfect but it helps if you don't happen to have a controller.

    Only 2 competative game modes right now, 1 life per round team elimination and    Definetly Reccomend if on sale somewhere. Fun little tactical shooter, quick matches.

    Only 2 competative game modes right now, 1 life per round team elimination and an objective mode where the objective changes every round. There are zombies/plagas infected B.O.W.s on all the maps and they can kill you very quickly, especially the dogs. It adds something else to worry about other than the enemy team some times.

    It's fun, looks nice enough for me and its getting free DLC. Unlike many of the negative reviews, I have had no crashing or problems of that sort at all. You may also want to take into account how much of a Capcom/RE "fan" the reviewer is, since the more they proclaim to love RE the more they problably hate this game or Capcom in general.

    If you are looking for a quick to pick up 3 v 3 tactical shooter with Resident Evil flair this is the game 4 u gamerz.    … Expand

    Umbrella Corps’ metascore suggests that it’s one of the worst games of this generation, but if you look past its low budget and bugs, you’ll see a fresh, unconventional shooter brimming with brilliant small innovations. [09/2016, p.52]

    Pointless and bad multiplayer game to put it plain – it is difficult to find any positives. Play rather the old Unreal Tournament, you will enjoy it much more. [Issue#266]

    Every level is very small, and no matter where you decide to hole up, it will be easy for enemies to flank you. It’s not bad by itself, but such design makes cover system – which was to become one of Umbrella Corps’ trump cards – redundant. So it comes as no surprise that combat quickly devolves into chasing after one another with one-hit-kill ax in hand. Of course, it’s hard to talk about tactics or teamplay in this lumberjack’s paradise. [Issue#211, p.56]
