I think this is still kind of pre-release, so the final product may be much different… and I really hope it does end up so. It’s very unpolished and the movement/physics are wonky as hell. Does not stack up to Helldivers or other games like that. The knock-down mechanic seems like utter BS and is basically an automatic death sentence.
The game is 50% off right now and, I suppose, I spent more time playing it (~2 hours) than I would have gotten for $5 for most other sources of entertainment, but if you’re looking for anything beyond a “$5 game” then I would look elsewhere unless this really gets polished up before official release.

I don’t know what, but something wrong with this shooter.
You have weapons, you have enemies, but no action, no interesting situations, interesting enemies.
I did run it few times, but maximum - 2 fights and game boring me(
After developer response I tried it once more.
All in all - the same. And found some bugs, like broken mission, character spawned in object after death.
After the mission 10 - not enought ammo on missions. For all classes.
Purple and blue loot dissappered very fast. In a battle no a time for looting, and some major loot dissappeared and it’s sad.

Far Cry® New Dawn
Far Cry New Dawn’s post-apocalyptic version of Hope County is essentially the same one we know from Far Cry 5. Once again the locals are being terrorized by armed gangs speeding around in infinite trucks while furious bears and homicidal turkeys leap from the bushes to claw at anything that moves. New Dawn adds a couple new twists to the series' formula—at times you can leave Montana to visit other states—but nothing to make it feel like a wholly different game. This is Far Cry 5 again, just on a smaller scale and with more pink flowers.

Game just crashes to desktop REPEATEDLY and at random. No way to tell when it is going to happen and there’s no error message. You play and then suddenly the screen goes black, then you are back at the desktop and the Ubisoft launcher is trying to sync your game with the cloud. Have tried every single option people have posted online about how to “fix” this and none work. We are now FAR away from the video drivers (nvidia) that were thought to be a problem for this game (the recommendation a couple years ago was to go back to an old driver). Trying this today will break some of your newer games. Locking your screen refresh (another suggestion) does nothing. Turning off or leaving off HDR does nothing. The game just doesn’t work. NO other game I have has anything remotely like this problem. It is organic to THIS game.

Krater
Krater: Shadows over Solside is a Top-down, Action-RPG developed and published by fatshark – pushed out of the gate in late-Spring 2012. Its reception was largely mixed – due to bugs, unfinished content and a lack of any sort of co-op mode. But how does it hold up five years down the line?
Story
The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic Sweden after the ‘Untergang.’ You take control over a bunch of mercenaries looking to make their mark on this new world. Their misadventures take to us to Solside – which perilously hangs over the Krater – a seemingly endless abyss that draws those from all over to seek its riches and possibly their demise in the process.

An unpolished turd. Numerous crashes to desktop while trying to navigate inventory or upgrade characters. Horrid pathing AI. So bad, that during some fights team members will suddenly run off up stairs and cause a wipe. Sometimes getting halfway across a map before realizing ONE member just decided to stand in place, even while still being highlighted as part of the moving group. Quests that cannot be finished because you happened to enter a dungeon prior to receiving the quest and kill the boss (everything else respawns, why can’t this?!), leaving numerous inventory slots full of quest items that cannot be dropped. Frequent battles where one or two of your group just stand there. Even after repeatedly retargeting. Had an entire group wipe (4800Kr to heal the group which can take hours to recoup) because the bruiser couldn’t seem to get to the target I selected for his grenade, and didn’t want to attack any other target when selected. Hours of time required to grind in order to upgrade characters in order to progress to a new area without wiping the team. Very little variety in dungeons. Unable for some reason most of the time to get the cursor to view other parts of dungeons and centering with space bar not actually showing ongoing battle made for frequent blind fights. Craft your own weapons? Cool, except that once you’re able to get far enough to purchase a new blueprint, it is already so underpowered as to be useless and a waste of crafting materials. Sellers have no indication whether or not the blueprints they have are already known, and to even check you either have to alt+tab out and check your own notes, or exit the seller and run over to the crafting table to check, then run back and forth repeatedly as most people do not have photographic memories. Selling back those expensive blueprints gives a 90% loss of value. Blueprint listing isn’t even entirely alphabetical. It’s like they did half of them, then added the other half also alphabatized but didn’t bother to collate them together. Oh, and for some reason the actionable area of the mouse pointer is well below the tip of the arrow (like halfway down the arrow), causing significant frustration early on trying to figure out why I couldn’t select anything. Then in Alces Hollow my ranged crowd control Regulator decided he’s going to start fighting point blank or not at all, thereby becoming two-hit toast in EVERY FIGHT.

Wasteland 3
This is a fun, mildly complicated party-based, turn-based game full of various strategies & tactics, with a large focus on combat tactics. You can play on hard-core mode & min-max everything, or just play casual & have fun with various builds.
The setting is post-apocalyptic, & you gradually fill out your squad of “Rangers” on your team. You mainly choose their weapons & skills, ranging from beefy (or speedy) melee specialists to glass cannon snipers who deal death from afar. Or go in between with pistols, automatic weapons, & machine guns. Skills, aside from the weapons mentioned, include dialogue specializations, explosives, science stuff, stealth (not very fleshed out, but useful for sneaking up on enemies), dealing with robots, taming various animals, etc. Pretty much every skill is useful.

I’d highly recommend it. It most definitely feels like a combination of X-Com style combat and Fallout post apocalypse atmosphere. I very much enjoyed the story, voice acting, music and plethora of choices. I liked both DLCs because they both added time to the game, blended well with the main story AND added a new mechanic in each case. I did three full sessions with a good-ish and bad-ish run on Ranger and a November Reigns min-max playthru on SuperJerk. Once you get a feel for the game, it becomes much easier. I learned new things in each playthru too about both game mechanics and story choices. I was pretty impressed with one in particular where I found out about a special type of armor you can get. In my last playthru, I tried to get it but because I pissed off the wrong group of people earlier (which I never thought would matter), they STOLE it from me later. I was both bummed I didn’t get it and happy it was a “thing”.

Contagion
Contagion is a zombie game with a good portion of realism. It uses the source engine and allow us players to create custom maps which I love it so much.
Gamemodes
There are many game modes out there but no tutorial so you are better off by watching the trailer first to get to know about the gamemodes before you get confused will all the new features. For example if you had enough with coop, you can play against other players in a level filled with the walking dead.

Full stop, this game is D..E..D Dead. You can find some random games every now and then but there should be no expectation to join random lobbies as the game died off years ago. You should only aim to purchase this title if you have friends that will be playing with you. I do check randomly for games but they are typically locked or just a 10 wave.
That being said you should add this game to your Wishlist and grab the 5 pack bundle when it goes on Sale. I think this game is worth 25 bucks for the 5 pack and it is a steal if your group of friends like these survival wave based games. This game is best enjoyed in groups of 4 or 5 in my opinion. Three is a decent time but you won’t be pushing as hard as it is harder to cover map objectives on the harder difficulties.

A year or so back I purchased the Fatshark Bundle for myself and a friend. At first glance all the games looked entertaining and the reviews were good. Letting the game run for cards it unlocked one achievement and in doing so dropped my overall percentage score, it is because of this that I have played this game a lot sooner than I was planning.
Before I get into the details of why you shouldn’t purchase this game let me tell you what’s good about it first. The game itself looks good and runs smoothly at 60fps. The gladiators/arena remind me of Borderlands with it’s wise cracking commentator and post apocalyptic atmosphere. It shares the same universe as Krater, so if you wish to find out more details about this world you can do so if you please. Your character’s upgrade system although improperly balanced is fairly fleshed out, allowing for a wide variety of customisation. It’s got achievements, trading cards, a cloud save, and cooperative play, all of which work perfectly.

Next Day: Survival
When you consider this game is only $10 and is usually on sale for $7 (what I got it for), then I recommend it. Next Day feels a bit unforgiving at first since there’s no real tutorial and the on-screen symbols for hunger and cold are confusing at first (Tip; you can hold your cursor over the symbol and it will give you information). I think the dev’s also made an update that gives you a handgun for the first mission with the wolf so it’s much easier then with the knife. Once you get a little gear built up from looting the neutral camp buildings you can start to venture out. The missions you start with are basic but fun especially with other friends or random players. The faction system is also fun and interesting. I started out with a Civilian helping me out by giving me weapons and gear and helping me with my missions. I eventually killed a Looter and became a Civilian. Then later, I was attacked by a Civilian at the Civ base so him and I went to blows and I accidentally killed him. I was immediately shot by the Civ NPC’s and then respawned at the Looter base and have been a Looter ever since (best faction by the way). I’ve had a lot of fun raiding bunkers and Civ bases either solo or with huge groups. You can max out your inventory quietly by just going to the bunker over and over once you know where all the soldiers are.

Next Day: Survival is a 3rd person survival shooter with a Stalker-esque setting minus the mutants, anomalies and radiation. Next Days environmental hazards are toxic gas clouds that can cover certain parts of the map. The game has some light rpg elements such as the inventory system,skill levels with their passive stat bonuses and the few fetch-this-kill-that quests.
I bought the game bc it was 6 euros and it seemed to have a nice atmosphere, somewhat bringing Stalker to my mind. In that way it did mostly live up to my expectations. It has what youre looking for if you need a quick fix of some slavic postapocalyptic survival faction vs faction action. The gunplay is very arcadey tho and thats one of the biggest problems for me gameplaywise. Theres no bullet drop or anything. Players and NPCs are rendered to only about 150-200m so its impossible to kill anyone beyond that distance, unless youre a hacker. With the Dragunov or PSG-1 you would kinda wanna be able to actually shoot people to the distances they are capable of..not to even talk about the AKMs effective firing range of approx. 50m. From here we get to a different problem: the map is really small, so realistic sniping distances would create pretty big kill zones around the faction HQs. Still I would prefer the distances to be realistic and a bigger map over what we have now.

One Clone Left
This game really small right now, but that by no means its bad. The new update for the menu really helped as it look quite akward before. If your scared of EA i would definatly say wait but i think there is some fun to have here, and potential.

Great Top-Down Shooter. Reminds me of titles such as ‘Crimsonlands.’
Have been following the creation process of this game for years now.
Very happy with the latest update :)

RAGE
Rage was a new IP developed by id Software, the legendary studio behind Wolfenstein, Doom and Quake, and was the first game showcasing the idtech5 engine.
Rage is also what I feel when I think about the potential of this game versus what id delivered.
Rage was promoted as a crossover between Fallout and Mad Max with a big wasteland to explore and with a focus on vehicular combat. While both the shooting and the vehicular combat are really good, there isn’t much to explore on the said wasteland.

First and foremost: RAGE is a strikingly beautiful game. Coming from iD, I would expect no less. Since the dawn of the shooter they’ve been at the forefront of cutting edge technology with a minimum of requirements. With new engine iD Tech 5, they’ve done it again - this is one of the most beautiful game worlds ever realised. It’s staggering the amount of detail that can be seen in this title, from the cliffs and canyons to the exquisite characters. But for all it’s beauty, RAGE is a shooter very much stuck in the past, and while story and character have been beefed up a great deal from past iD products, they just can’t compare with shooters of today. RAGE is wonderful to play, but caring about the game world or having an emotional attachment to any character is a darn sight harder.
