anyone played it yet?
Looks good if a little cartoony.
It's had some excellent reviews too.
Designed around CO-OP gameplay rather than a frag fest multiplayer.
Might get it this weekend?

I mentioned it else where, but...
It is good. I like the graphics style. I like the humour, especially the Zombie DLC (which is also worth getting if you get to around level 30). But the online component was lacking a bit IMO... first and foremost - competing for weapon pick ups was a bad decision. Each player should get to choose if they want any of the drops, not rely on the faster or more forward players leaving them something. And I found it quite laggy when joining someone else, which makes opening loot boxes and collecting loot quite annoying at times.
I would recommend it mainly as a decent single player FPS with RPG tendancies. It could be fun with a mate or two if you start at the same time, but playing with randoms isn't generally worth the time investment.
