Really fun to play with friends. The best parts are the paranoid interactions you have as each round slowly comes to a close.
The game is very repetitive with only a small number of objectives but each round brings a new element of surprise an strategy based on your group's dynamic.
This game plays out like a thriller, building with suspense as time goes on to a crescendo attempting to complete or sabotage the last task.
It's definitely in the category of games like Lethal Company, a great amount of fun that eventually fizzles away due to the lack of game content. However, for the price tag, you get a cheap, fun time with friends.

Drive a truck across the map, flip it over. Get another truck out to save the already flipped truck, flip it over while trying to save the first truck. Recover all trucks to garage and do it again.

Early Access Review
The game isn't perfect, but its a great free game. If you just want some arena shooter action with flashy graphics, here you go.

The entirety of this game is shown in the second video: You start, a couple of men stumble past and into the distance, and then you and your bud (you can turn to look at him) remain there silently, smoking. Nobody else walks by, and there is no more conversation, just you, your silent partner, smoke, snow and sky. And gigantic Soviet-era apartment blocks. It is a supreme existential experience.

It makes for a rather interesting screen saver, and would be good for a streamer to use as a humorous "not at the keyboard" app.

Early Access Review
Actually a very good survival game. At first it seems difficult to get anything going, and food seems to be on a shortage, but once you get established the game is actually really well made. The latest update as well added so many things to the game which it needed, and there is so much to do and more to learn about the game. I highly recommend this game. The shark isn't really that much of a problem, I feel they should make it a little better.

Quite good for its price. I was told to avoid buying it because it was "weird" and bad. Well, assuming it's less than 3€ in certain key shops, it's more than worth the money. It took for me about 22 hours to get 79%. The only remarcable "con" is that it is no longer a "classic" Saints Row game, talking about the meta-game itself. As soon as you get super powers, conduction and vehicles are useless 85% of the time. Maybe longer. Shooting is still important, but not as much as it used to be.

That said, the characters are back (Shaundi, Kinzie, Pierce... the saint flow!!). Dialogues are still great, as usual. Graphics are nice and performance is quite good (I ran it with my integrated GPU for few days and still got 60 FPS in low quality, so it's a 10/10 optimization).

The "extras" (races, chaos, fraud...) are still there with some new missions, which I found to be great indeed. There are also lot of secondary quests, which were not great but neither bad. Just average. The plot was... good. Not awesome, but quite good I'd say. Better than expected for sure. You can still customize vehicles and your character, although you're not using much vehicles this time.

As I agree that SR3 was far, far better than this, I could not say if this is better than SR2, as it had a good plot, but it was unnecessary crude, as I see. This one has is own drama, but it has nothing to do with that grimm in SR2. I also found some characters to be unknown, as I didnt played SR1. That was kind of anoying, as playing SR2 wasn't a problem to me after playing SR3. Still managed to survive, tho.

So, things are like theese:
Pros:
+Nice dialogues, nice plot, nice Saint Flow.
+Paul
+Awesome optimizacion and nice graphics
+Fast and therefore "hard" movement. Races are quite more a deal than they were in previous games.
+Paul
+Charismatic antagonist
+Weapons went mad this time. The are some masterpieces like the "Dumbstepator", the "hinflaray", a bacl hole machine...You even have a plundger thrower, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!

Cons:
-Vehicles are no longer worth your time
-The game is VERY different to the other Saint series. I didnt found this bad, but many people do.
-Some DLCs are very unbalanced. I bugged a main quest by accident, as I killed more than 60 guys with just 1 skill, killing the "event proc" in the way.. On the other side, they include the "América". Firethrower, rocketlauncher and bullets... all at once!
-Super powers? I liked them tho : )
-Paul.
-You may find some characters unknown if you did not play the whole series. I did : (

All in all, and keeping in mind that you can get the game for less than 5 bucks, I think this game is more tan worth. Not only your money, but your time. Remember to make sure you play cooperative, you'll laugh double : )

If you like pure FPS with minimal eye sore or too much object, then Cs 1.6 is a must.
Server with mods like De dust 24/7 / CS assultt 24/7 or Deathmatch is where all the fun is .

If you want to play zombie mods then Left4Dead 2 is way better alternative as the Zombie mod is CS has become so much pay to win that it's unbearable and boring.

Coming back to Cs.16 after so many years feels nolstalgic.

Contrary to what anybody might say, Counter-Strike, Counter-Strike: Condition Zero with Deleted Scenes and Counter Strike: Source are much more challenging than Counter-Strike: Global Offensive even though it has better graphics and a larger community at this time, unfortunately it sacrificed it's old school challenge for better graphics and community appeal through skins and the like etc. CS:S is my favorite, it has the best balance of graphics and with the introduction of the use of the Source engine, real time game physics, and of course the best in the industry use of the VAC anti-cheat system!
