Super well-made campaign with lots of details and love packed into it. I especially love the work put into dialogue and hidden dialogue. The devs thought a lot about all the different scenarios that the player can end up in. I want to especially complement the level because I rarely find myself getting lost on the map compared to the first EZ. The bosses are also much better because they don't have dumb fancy ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that leads you dying hundreds of times and spamming saves.

This is big step-up from the first installment and I cannot wait to see what Breadman and his team have planned for the future (if they're interested in making another mod).

I would've paid money for this game, just sayin'.

Solid level design, story, and music. I think this mod brings to the table new and interesting concepts. I especially love the parts where you take and use turrets to your advantage.

The exception to the good level design is the fourth and final chapter. It is utterly confusing with unintuitive puzzle design (the puzzle design in general for this game is pretty iffy) and overly difficult boss encounters. The problem isn't the enemy itself, it's the arena you fight them in. You sort of bash your head at the wall just to figure out what you need to be doing to progress the fight, while trying to survive environmental hazards that are mostly unchoreographed. To rub salt in the wound, some random bug caused NO MUSIC to play for me during the climaxes of this chapter, which sucks because the music is pretty damn good.

I know it seems like I had more bad than good things to say, but I still recommend trying out this mod since it's pretty fun experience...at least for the first three chapters. While heavily rough around some edges, this game has a good foundation, so I'm looking forward to trying out Entropy : Zero 2. For your sanity's sake, I would probably play the last chapter on the lowest difficulty, or just watch a walkthrough of someone who knows what they're doing because it is not a fun time.

Early Access Review
The only game where you can get hunted by a butt-naked poltergeist man throwing notebooks and plates around at Mach 1 speed.

How you SHOULD play L4D2:
1. Install and setup VOX - Complete Vocalizer from the Steam workshop.
2. Load into a public game.
3. Spam the living crap out of the WHAT? or *scream* voicelines to annoy everybody you come across.
4. Success!

For 10 bucks, this ain't a bad co-op shooter to pick up. There is a good amount of content packaged in Extraction. There are many operators, events, missions (dubbed "Studies"), and ranks to grind out, as well as the difficult end-game activity of Maelstrom. This game can be surprisingly difficult and punishing, so executing clean runs or narrowly extracting out of a run gone to ♥♥♥♥ can be satisfying. R6S gameplay also works well in a PvE co-op environment. I also highly encourage you to play with friends (with the buddy tokens mentioned later) because matchmaking times can be long.

I do not recommend this game at the base price of $40 usd (pick this game only during a sale!), especially if you are a Siege player. None of your cosmetics carry over (however, you do earn a generous amount of cosmetics through gameplay) and this game is basically an expansion of the Outbreak event. This game should've been a cheap DLC, rather than a fully-priced standalone game. Unfortunately, this is not the case so this game flopped. If you did not know already, Ubisoft dropped support for this game many months ago.

Nonetheless, if you're looking for co-op shooters to try out, this would be one of them. You also get two "buddy pass tokens" that allows you to have two friends (if you have any) to have full access to the game for 14 days-- and there is crossplay!

Modern Warfare II is cosmetic shop disguised as a game. The developers are doing the bare minimum to keep the game fresh and updated. The free-to-play DMZ and Warzone 2 gamemodes are getting more content than the $70 paid multiplayer experience. But hey, we get a lot of exciting and shiny cosmetic bundles!

Okay, well, is MWII a fun game to play? Sure, it can be. Despite the premium COD experience being in a dilapidated and dull state this early in its life, I still play ranked from time to time. But this game is going no where soon as there will be another COD this year. If you are playing MWII currently and have not bought the game or any bundle, please do not be a fool that I was and do not spend your hard-earned money on this game. By all means, continue to play it. The point of gaming is to have fun! But please vote with your wallets. COD will continue to treat its players like cash cows because dumbasses like me paid for their silly skins (that are actually quite a downgrade from previous titles) and overpriced game (although I did buy the base game on sale).

I will never buy another COD like this again.

I made some preview images[imgur.com] for the skin. Alternatively, you can check out the pack in the in-game store to preview the operator skins, stickers, emblem, and calling card. However, you cannot preview the camos.

The Home operator skins do not match the Steam preview image. The straps and goggles are colored red. It was changed to improve the skin's visibility so it didn't end up like MW19's Roze skin. Please, don't buy this skin for a dumb visibility advantage. You will be wasting your money since player visibility in this game is quite good (excluding muzzle flash and whatnot lol).

On some blueprints, the camo can look like a solid green camo. It will look similar to the pre-nerf look of solid color camos when they were much brighter.

My opinion: This CDL camo in particular has a very vibrant red color, which I absolutely love. It looks very good on my guns, especially as a solid color using the blueprint trick. I also like the simple black and red Male Home skin. I don't think the white works too well with the red and black on the Away skins.

If you like this review, I have a similar one for the Optic Pack too!
