Having to start over a survival map isn't an issue thanks to the random nature of the mode. What I do mind is that making the wrong decision can easily softlock you, something that shouldn't happen.

This could be fixed to some extent either by allowing us to highlight the items at the press of a button or, the devs really want to make us look around, by at least pinpointing on the minimap the approximate location of each item so that players don't have to scan the whole map in search of one last trinket.Ģ) The tech tree can screw your whole campaign.Īs I said, I don't mind having every unit and buliding as unlockables. And, because of my next two points, this tedious pixel hunting is absolutely mandatory. The fact that item location is partially random only makes things worse as I had to force my way through optional rooms full of enemies only to realize that there wasn't any reward for it. Scavenging a room, looking for treasure can be interesting and fun in real life or in first person, but it isn't in top down view. I get the intended idea, that the player would have to look around and search every corner, just like the character would. Scavening the map, looking for very small items is not fun. That's an obvious one and I don't get how it went past playtesting. I like the game and that doesn't change during the campaign.ġ) Pixel hunting during the exploration missions. I've enjoyed TAB for a few months now and the gameplay is fun and challenging. I wouldn't complain if there was a little more of it, especially adding some characters other than Quintus, but I didn't go in expecting much on that front and I wouldn't say it's a priority. But this is a zombie game, 'kill the ghouls, take back the land' not like there is much more to say as a motvation. I have some issues with it, but the idea of letting us unlock EVERYTHING in the order we want is neat. Unlike some others, I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. Having basically all units and building be unlockable is an interesting decision. After all, the core gameplay of the game is good enough that I sunk more than 100 hours in survival alone. That's not a huge number and there could probably have been more, but that's satisfying enough.

As far as I saw, there are three basic types of missions : exploration, survival and hordes.
