    По оставшемуся с новогодней распродажи купону у Epic store игра обошлась в 459 рублей. За эти деньги это просто подарок! Кто любил и любит Sniper Elite будут крайне довольны, все всякого сомнения! Отличная игра!

    Dead War is a back to basics action romp, harnessing the best that the genre has to offer.

    Immersive and KILLER design...you want to have a blast while having the crap scared out of you? Forget any of these mediocre reviews. Play this gsmeon hardest level and you will be challenged. So many levels to go through...crazy deep world. I own 80+ games..this one rocks.

    I platinized the Zombie Army Trilogy on both PC and PS4 and spent days breaking the brains of the zombies with headshots with my favorite rifle of all time, the M1 Carbine.
    I am now playing this new Zombie Army 4 which I was waiting for with great enthusiasm.
    The game is a lot of fun and really too addictive. This title is not a spin off like the Zombie Army Trilogy but a completely new title full of elements that were absent in the ZAT. In fact in Zombie Army 4 we will have to enhance the various weapons as we level up, each character will be able to take advantage of special melee attacks (which will recharge over time), final moves and finally we will be able to choose 5 particular "skills" among the about 30 available (each of which confers offensive, defensive or strategic advantages). To conclude, each character has particular advantages or disadvantages (someone is more resistant to bullets, others to melee attacks etc ...)
    However it must be admitted that this title, although the gunplay is very fun and adrenaline, differs greatly from the Sniper Elite series for a simple and obvious reason: in this title the core of the series has been completely denatured, that is the importance and role of the sniper. In Zombie Army Trilogy "pro players" used only sniper rifles (the primary weapon) because the secondary weapons and pistols were really not very powerful and effective: the "Sniper Rifle Was The Real Protagonist" because the title was precisely a spin off of the Sniper Elite series ! In Zombie Army 4 instead the use of the primary weapon has become almost superfluous because, especially the secondary weapons, they have been so exaggeratedly enhanced that they are the best choice in 90% of the circumstances    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The most awesome thing in Zombie Army 4: Dead War, which couldn’t have hoped for better timing.sometimes when we kill its zombies are also Nazis, you get a super-gross slow-mo kill. (You have gun, some zombies and have fun.)
    A simplified Horde mode exists as well, if you just want to stick to one location and see how many waves you can take on while experimenting with different weapons.
    Exciting sound track that feels like it comes straight out of the 1985 George A. Romero zombie film classic, Day of the Dead – my only complaint about the music being I wish it were mixed louder and piped in more often.
    Other running and gunning the way you shoot zombies encourages you to confront the walking dead in a more nuanced way: Getting a certain number of kills unlocks special abilities, like overpowered sniper shots or hyper-fast shotgun reloading, but you also get a chance to recover health by pulling off up-close kills. Killing a certain number of zombies from a distance to earn the right to run in and recover some health adds a layer of strategic dismemberment to the mindless slaughter.
    The levels don’t look radically different, but they all have interesting layouts that are fun to explore and are creepy and unsettling in their own way.
    The gun upgrade system, however, is initially exciting but can hit a wall.
    On the technical side, I didn’t run into any connection issues, but I did have some general bugs.
    In open area maps the enemies can come from several different directions and you always have to be on the move and aware of your surroundings.
    you can't depend on single weapon too much, and need to utilise each weapon properly.
    the enemies and also designed in variety of different ways but different strength.
    there is a progression system which encourages one to play.
    Don't get me wrong but "The game doesn't look bad but it doesn't look great either. It looks serviceable. The environment are the most detailed. the characteristics are weired plastic quality. animations aren't smoothest .    … Expand

    Recieved the game for free with PS+ and was pleasantly surprised by the game. Very campy and lacking in depth, but I think the developer goal was just to make blowing the limbs off of hordes of zombies with a sniper rifle feel fun and satisfying. In that regard they succeeded. A great casual coop romp.

    Fun online 4 player co op zombie game. Quite a bit of content to get through with the campaign and horde mode. The game is quite fun to play with other people. There is a lot to work on in the game in the form of challenges, upgrades, maxing out your weapons, unlocking new things, finding collectibles. The trophies are also fun to obtain. The guns are all satisfying to use. FeelsFun online 4 player co op zombie game. Quite a bit of content to get through with the campaign and horde mode.

    Its a fun game, takes me back to the days playing L4D with my boys. Gunplay is great and the B movie 80's atmosphere elevates and makes it even more fun. Get some friends together and play a couple hours and it'll a fun time

    Zombie army 4 is a game where they show x rays... of testicles, you already know its gonna be good. My favorite part of ZA4 is how awesome the upgrades for your weapons are, you can turn an average shotgun into a phlogistinator? From the beginning to the 7th level i have experienced no bugs or glitches whatsoever, good game!

    I tried this game and played it for 50 or 60 hours and I think I already have a good criticism, I already give it up but that does not mean that it is a bad game. First and foremost, the game was only enjoyed in 4-player zombies difficult configuration, which increases the zombies by 4, which makes there are zones with like 100 zombiez. Another problem that I saw many people complaining,I tried this game and played it for 50 or 60 hours and I think I already have a good criticism, I already give it up but that does not mean that it is a bad game. First and foremost, the game was only enjoyed in 4-player zombies difficult configuration, which increases the zombies by 4, which makes there are zones with like 100 zombiez. Another problem that I saw many people complaining, that zombies are very slow, and if it is true, but apart from the fact that they hold a lot of bullets, there are several zombies that are very fast and that will reach you easily, forcing you to move, and I'm not even talking about the officers, which forces you to go to the root of the entire horde exposing yourself completely to finish off that officer, which makes for constant action. And the biggest problem without a doubt is monetization. Apart from the fact that there are many maps that are paid and you can only get costumes by paying, the biggest problem of all is the DLC weapons, I think I should not explain what they are. It is true that there are VERY good weapons without the DLCs, but there are a few DLC weapons that simply destroy, like the Mortar Rifle and the Springfield, which causes a pay to win. This pay to win most of the time is not noticeable but it is very annoying.
    Now in conclusion, do I recommend it? Yes. I alredy get bored with the game but I must admit that I seriously had a VERY fun time of 40 or 50 hours, and considering that the game is 50 dollars, I absolutely recommend it. Even so, resident evil is a game that lasts one or 2 sessions, that is, 30 or 40 hours and it is still a great game that many people buy, including me.    … Expand

    One of the best horde shooters. Fun campaign, great visuals, sounds and music. Pretty creepy at times. Really sound weapon sounds and feedback, you just can't get enough of those meaty, chunky zombie slo-mo kills. Tons of customisation - weapons, attachments, perks (for the player AND weapons) characters, skins.
    Even better in co-op. The only downsides i can see is some repetitiveness and    One of the best horde shooters. Fun campaign, great visuals, sounds and music. Pretty creepy at times.

    This game is a blast, especially after a rough day. It defines the trope "just turn your brain off for a while and shoot." No puzzles, no mazes, not too much key hunting. If you like COD Zombies, WWZ, L4D, etc ... you'll enjoy this game. The graphics aren't anything to write home about but fast loading times are the upshot of that. Also has great weapon selection and customization.

    The single-player story mode was a lot of fun. When the people in front of you are zombies, the subject of artificial intelligence is not very noticeable. Nice bit of game to clear your head. Also, controller support is very good.

    Sharp, gritty visuals, clever level design, and a John Carpenter-esque soundtrack all contribute towards creating an oppressive, dank, B-movie vibe that's almost as much fun to plough through solo as it is co-op. Plus, there's a zombie shark in it. If that hasn't piqued your interest you're probably already undead.

    Zombie Killing is always better with friends and Zombie Army 4 doesn’t buck that trend. Don’t buy this if you lack playing partners but if you have some Zombie slaying mates it is a blast.
