Killing Floor vs Killing Floor 2
Killing Floor
Killing Floor is an intense survival horror first-person shooter game that is set in the post-apocalyptic and devastatingly ruined country of England where a series of military-sanctioned cloning experiments had gone awry. Play with up to 6 of your friends cooperatively as you attempt to survive for long enough to clear the area you are airdropped into of any zombies or you can simply play solo. Unlike most similar games, Killing Floor has a non-linear gameplay where you can actually weld doors shut to redirect waves of zombies. The gameplay is also more tactically sound rather than the bullet-hell stuff you'd experience in some of the more arcade-like shooters.In addition to having an arsenal of weapons for you to choose from, the game also features a persistent perks system which lets you to convert your in-game achievements into permanent improvements for your character's skills and abilities. The game even has mod support, so you can create new levels and mods for the game and share them with the world.
Killing Floor may be a rather old game, but it's still as fun as it was before. The cooperative gameplay guarantees hours of fun (as well as yelling and perhaps cussing) for both you and your friends as you try to stem the tide of zombies rushing towards you.
Killing Floor 2
Killing Floor 2 is the long-awaited sequel to the popular survival horror first-person shooter game, Killing Floor. This time around though, players will be venturing out from England into continental Europe where the failed experiment apparently has massive impact on as well. With civilization in disarray, the remnants of humanity has banded together to combat the massive hordes of zombies and set up bases across Europe. Playing as one of the remaining and well-trained mercenaries, you'll once again descend into the bowels of the outbreak and clear out hot zones for the survivors to reclaim.Similar to the original, Killing Floor 2 has a co-op (up to 6 players) option or you can simply play the single player mode. Interestingly, the game has added a new 12-player PvP mode where two teams of players take turns playing as humans and zombies. The team with the highest score will naturally win. The perk progression system is also expanded in this sequel, allowing players to invest in meaningful talents that will help them find a handful of skills that fit their respective play styles. Interestingly, the game has reworked its melee combat, giving melee fights more of a structure rather than simply slashing and smashing.
With so many improved features but still retaining the same good old zombie-killing mania, Killing Floor 2 is the sequel that the game series deserve. Enjoy hilariously crazy moments of caving zombies' heads in or blowing them right off with your friends by your side!
