Why players love itThings to know
64% of themes are praise36% are divided0% are complaints
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
29 of 116 sampled reviews raised it
+Has great local co-op and you can still play online even with four local players
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
23 of 116 sampled reviews raised it
+/-The devs have focused on getting the multiplayer right and have neglected the singleplayer portion of the game, if you're looking for MP only then that's great but if you want some good SP too you might be disappointed
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
20 of 116 sampled reviews raised it
+No idea how they achieved this but even when players have a super high ping the gameplay is still super smooth and there's very little lag
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
14 of 116 sampled reviews raised it
I must admit the snowball factor early into each match can be quite daunting, as players who collect higher tier weapons early can easily destroy any chance of you have of getting back into the game.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
10 of 116 sampled reviews raised it
A super fun multiplayer experience with nice cartoony graphics, well designed characters, lots of unlockables and great devs to back it all up.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
6 of 116 sampled reviews raised it
And if not, the bots' difficulty level is adjustable, so they present a more than adequate challenge if you have no one to play against.
