JimboPosted:

Watched a few minutes of the stream and it looks pretty fun. Would have to see more gameplay before buying.

HuxPosted:

Unsure about this game. I've been so excited for months and then they released a new game play trailer. It looked trashy, cheap and poor game mechanics. Hoping it will be really good.

TOXICPosted:

The trailer was pretty cool, so I can see myself playing this game for sure.

Dil I'm excited for the beta, shame it's so close to the release of other big games such as Black Ops 4


I need this game to be good. About time another decent survival game came out.

Decy Finally some news on this game.... been waiting for what feels like forever now. Wonder why they are doing a pc only beta also


The console version got pushed back for whatever reasons, due to that they probably can't get a console build out in time - and it's OVK, they're generally pretty bad when it comes to consoles.
