  1. Could you explain how the coop mode works? Like joining a randoms game. I tried it. And didn’t know wth was going on. Also, if I progress by myself in the game, and then join a friends game that hasn’t progressed that much further, will they see that I’ve progressed further than them?

  2. So did I understand right that I should wait for higher lvl to get the unique weapons? So hard to find Infos about. Im tempted to get the unique Katana now but im only lvl 15

  3. One thing you missed is that knifes have shortest counter attack animation and significant higher counter damage. So if you rely a lot on counter, using a knife will save you a lot of time. Also counter doesn't consume weapon's durability so it's also a big plus.

  4. Ive tried so many times to kill the named soldier in the alley in beverly hills I’ve got him down to 1/3 his health but if he hits me once I’m dead. Im lv15 or 16 I think. Does anyone know what you get for killing him i wish i could remember his name.

  5. The game makes nice open areas for exploring and encourages side quests yet if you go somewhere you're not supposed to be you run into skull enemies and skull crushers pretty much instakill you with 1 hit. Also, the game tells you if you run into skull enemies to not fight them yet they will pursue you forever and runners are too fast to outrun. Plus with the ridiculous spawn rates if you go back to an area you were just at, there's likely to be new zombies waiting for you and then you'll have to fight the skull guy(s) and them simultaneously. My buddy also said he was killed by a skull guy while in the finishing animation on another zombie where you have to push RT. On top of that, having a bunch of locked boxes and knowing you can't get a legendary item out of them until after you beat the campaign is super dumb. So they want you to explore and do side quests, but then punish you for doing so and not rushing through the campaign.

  6. Short guide:
    Hit zombies with anything- Do the story will not take long- IF bored and nothing else to do then do side missions some will make you want to let a zombie eat you- Realize that collecting weapons is pointless as you can have the same weapon and just level it up.
    I took my time and by the end got to level 30 which basically makes every zombie harder and sure you get Sam B's hammer at the end but you don't need it because…..It's the end and if you want to just kill zombies sure it's fun to slap them about but you can just shoot their leg off and job done easy killing…..Dont like those runners? Shoot their leg off. Dont like screamers? Shoot their leg off etc etc 🙂
    Need a mod to make it so you can kill NPC's like the streamer zombie apocalypse and only idiots survived.

  7. why does it matter about their personality?
    Feel – sure I agree there. I went with Amy as she looked cool but I just keep dying…so probably going to change it up to Ryan as he looks like a Sam B type character (aka tank).
    It's funny how this version of the game they don't really have obvious roles – tank, spy, scout, engineer etc… like the last game did.

  8. Correction

    The first legendary weapon you can get is not the one at the end of the game

    Its late game too but you can find the blood rage headhunter knife at the pier if you do the lost and found quest there(pretty much the best melee weapon if you can hit the headshots
