TLDR: Good game that takes the COD zombies formula and builds into that.
YOU CAN TURN OFF THE OBJECTIVES IN THE INTERFACE OPTIONS IF YOU WANT A TRUE EE EXPERIENCE.
I recommend this game if you have never played a COD zombies or if you just love the genre.

With that out of the way.
So far, the game is very entertaining.
I have played COD zombies since WaW and I can assure you that this game feels solid enough for me to recommend.

Take in mind that the game is still in EA, so things will break, weapons will be unbalanced or feel unbalanced, AI will feel awkward, BUT the game is very much enjoyable.

So let me give you the good, the neutral and the bad.

The good:
-Great level design with interesting art style
-Solid (But very grindy) system of progression
-Multiple difficulties
-Hidden collectibles
-Easter Eggs (Each map has a Main Quest, by default the steps would be at the top left of the screen, but you can be a GIGACHAD and turn it off on the interface settings and also turn off markers, so you can have a true EE experience)
-DLSS

The neutral:
--No music :( (This is a point that personally does not ruin the experience, but i think its important that the devs know too)
-Boss fights (They are not hard, at all, mostly, but there is a End game door so that's nice)
-Not much weapon variety (There are very few weapons, but I think they are good enough, I would like to see more too tho)
-No dialogue from the characters. (Something I always loved from the COD zombies saga is that the characters had some type of input when you do something, I know its not as important but not hearing anything more than the screams during the entire playtime its kinda weird)

The bad:
-Some wonder weapons feel kinda useless
-The AI is clunky and it's way easier to make a "train" than in COD
-Spawnpoints for the Quiet Ones are very weird, sometimes they step out, sometimes they don't
-No rewards for completing the main quests in the hardest difficulty other than more EXP
-I personally don't like the bloom effect, it makes the weapon glow and its very distracting, I love it on the world, but the weapon ruins it for me

So, is it a good game?
Yeah
Is it worth?
Yeah
Do you need to have a PHD to understand it?
No, I would say that this is a good alternative for the new gamers in the genre

DEVS, PLEASE MAKE THE PLAGUE DO FIRE DAMAGE ON THE FLOOR AND DO A LOT IS THE WORST THING EVER

Either way, I enjoyed it.

If you want people to play with there is a discord so yeah: https://discord.gg/Pb2uFYRB7P

Give it a try if you like horde like games.
