How To Survive 2
Dead or Alive? Make up your mind, stranger. We don’t like that undead business here in Louisiana… Survive solo or with friends as you look to fulfill your basic needs of food, water and shelter, crafting your own tools and weapons while you secure your camp and face flesh hungry zombies. Several years have passed since the original How to Survive events on Los Riscos’ archipelago. Now the local infection has turned into a worldwide pandemic. Everyone around the world, groups of people or lone wolves, try to survive one more day among the infected, attempting to recover a semblance of normal life. You find yourself in Louisiana and your survival chance starts by building a safe camp and becoming a skilled survivalist. Find water, food and shelter and talk to the unconventional locals to make your way around.

The first game was a little bit better than this one but still.
It is the same thing with a few new enemies and clunky gameplay (the game is made for consoles, wich is why the controls are a bit clunky)
((**Remember to grab the machete on your first run on the middle locker room or arsenal room on Kovac's bunker you will need it to chop wood and make arrows and other things**))
The camp mechanic is....meh but it gives you another reason to go out and murder zombies, everything you do will give you experience wich you exchange for points for your character, camp, and ¨skills¨ (for separated) so you will have to choose wisely or just ...kill more and more. i do preffer the first one metod with the skill tree but eh..
Anyways is a nice game and more focused in multiplayer than the first one so if you have friends and wanna try something different go on give it a try.

Honestly, I didn't expect much from this game. I knew it was old and thought it would be a few days trip. Ha. Haha!
I ended up running in cities, collecting tinned food and moving heavy garbage containers. I had to hunt zombified animals in swamps and lure unique trophies into specific areas.
Days turned into nights, when more dangerous species attacked my so recklessly built camp, which led into another adventure (read - vacuuming all visible resources!) and extremely careful preparation for further defences.
I survived!
There were so many NPCs, sending my to find rare samples and their friends. Seemingly easy missions quickly turned into skills test (I played solo). I found out that multiple zombies could run and my melee attacks often were a bit slow. So I obtained some guns. The shooting noise, however, attracted more infected =/ And then there were quick zombified dogs, acid pelicans, bloody crocodiles! Nasty beings.
How to Survive 2 got me 80hrs+ and I mostly enjoyed it.
Few stupid mechanics annoyed the hell out of me e.g. inability to rotate camera - very often enemies are hidden by a wall or an object. Or my character would do a spinning melee attack instead of a straight hit and miss a zombie. Plus, when running, your character will do a parcour over a chair or car, instead of just "rubbing and running along it".
But generally, lots of positive vibes. Various quests, complex crafting for melee/range weapons AND enhancing medicaments. Moreover, there's a cooking system with more buffs and extra side-effects.
If you decide to try this game, it's very likely that you'll be grasped by it for many days.

How to Survive 2 is a blast to play with a friend, especially at night for that extra spooky atmosphere. The teamwork and survival challenges make it thrilling and memorable—perfect for fans of cooperative zombie games and its really not all that bloody.

It's a great game, pretty relaxing too. There is some grinding to do, but it's not something to hate. It's also great that you can play with friends. Definitely worth it's price.

Its okay, How to Survive 1 was pretty good in comparison, with the limitation in Coop of both players having to be on the same screen, however Welcome to ParadiZe is much better and recommend skipping this one and going directly to their newest release.
