    Though the 12 maps will become very well-known after spending hours in the game and repetition overall will start to creep in with players, some much sooner than others. It’s a small issue though in my eyes as the core gameplay here feels and looks great and it’s a game that can be enjoyed online with friends and the online community. The harder the difficulty and more waves adding, the crazier it gets. Players looking for a great arcade online shooting experience really need to look no further. Killing Floor 2 is here to please.

    Fans of horde modes in their shooters will find plenty of reasons to keep coming back to Killing Floor 2, although the experience is substantially better with a group of like-minded friends.

    While Killing Floor 2 doesn’t offer a lot of content, especially compared to many other multiplayer shooters out this year, at the end of the day, it’s still fun to shoot some Zeds with your friends. If you’re really looking for some quick, challenging multiplayer action, Killing Floor 2’s a pretty good place to start.

    Killing Floor 2 is a very good choice if you, and your friends, are a maniac with a weird lust to kill hordes of horrible monsters. Cooperative mod is challenging but not too varied while the competitive mod is funny but unbalanced. Know this and have fun.

    Old school shooters can still deliver, even if it's all only fun in small doses. Nice upgrade system, but lacks game modes.

    Tripwire Interactive brings the FPS back to its most primal level, creating a ludicrous arcade-style bloodbath in an era of deeper, more thoughtful narrative-driven shooters. That approach ultimately proves to be refreshing; while more variety would have pushed the game over the top into "truly great" territory, what Killing Floor 2 does offer is undeniably visceral entertainment. And while the wave-based action is plenty of fun on its own, the perks system kept me coming back to upgrade my character and face even deadlier threats.

    Taking a shallow sub-mode from other games, and presenting it in a no-frills manner, might make for a competent and reliable shooter, But Killing Floor 2 also fails to be anything more than a diversion from other, better shooters as a result. It's utterly useless in singleplayer, and for multiplayer hijinks there are more creative examples out there.

I picked it up on a whim since I like co-op shooters. I thought it would be decent - what I wasn't expecting was greatness. This game is just about flawless. 60 FPS even when there is chaos on screen, great variety of weapons to choose from, good number of maps, awesome gore, a variety of enemies to kill, you can play as the monsters and the periodic slow-mo shots are pretty cool. This game is like a spiritual successor to Left for Dead 2. This is the game Evolve should have been. I will be playing this game for a long time. If you like Horde mode type games, pick this up immediately.… Expand

    From the inventive zed slaying weaponry to the blood stained walls and terrifying abominations this game has to offer this game has the zombieFrom the inventive zed slaying weaponry to the blood stained walls and terrifying abominations this game has to offer this game has the zombie apocalypse setting done perfectly. The maps are all-round well designed and are not very repetitive, since there's a voting system at the end of the game. Another nice thing about KF2 is there's new free maps and other goodies, like weapons getting added every few months. I highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a fun co-op zombie horde slaying game. This game pretty much blows any other wave based zombie FPS out of the water and is quite a satisfying game.

    This said the only bad thing i can say about KF2 is that the 2 bosses that appear on the final wave of each match do get quite boring after fighting them a few dozen times, but new bosses may be added in future updates. This game gets a prestigious 10/10 from me.    … Expand

    - Distinct maps and zeds with even more difference every update or event that is going on ( Cyberpunk, Steampunk, Winter, Halloween, ... )
    - Many different perks to level up and specialize, especially good in teams as it is at its core still a co-op team shooter
    - One of the best gore systems out there ( still after years )

    Still have to say: You either like it or not, its still a bit of a nieche game.    … Expand

    conclusion:
    Killing floor 2 doesn't surpass left 4 dead 2 on wow factor but it does an excellent attempt trying to.

    Fun, multiplayer zombie wave based survival shoot-em-up. Massive variety of maps and classes that is still being supported and updated to this day.

    This game was chaotic and sometimes even fun to play with a couple of friends but it did not deliver enough to make it a unique zombieThis game was chaotic and sometimes even fun to play with a couple of friends but it did not deliver enough to make it a unique zombie experience. Some classes were really fun to play though and the game did offer a decent amount of customization and playstyle options.

    Gameplay-wise, this was a very challenging game and leveling up a character felt rewarding but it was also too much of a grind and over-time became boring.

    This game does not have a campaign but I'd still recommend this if you plan to play this with a friend of 2. It can be quite a fun game if you play the right classes, but eventually becomes a chore to grind for level ups.    … Expand

Instead I'm sold a 1st person co-op game that needs to be played online. I was taken for a sucker as this is by far the absolute worst game I have ever played in my life. I played less than 15 minutes and wish I could have those minutes back. This game SUCKS!!!… Expand
