I'd give this game about a 9/10 for it being so unique and fun.

Maps:
The zones are all very different and the maps are very large. So far I have uncovered about 25 of the zones. You are free to roam anywhere in the game but you can’t enter every building. Even though the maps are large they don’t take forever to cover. Your running speed seems just right and if you don’t want to walk you can always visit one of the many vehicle stations.

Quests:
There are literally hundreds of quests and you get them from bulletin boards in some cities or from people in the wasteland. Most of them revolve around killing something or finding items to bring back. Each one is different but some might thinks it’s repetitive. I really like the fact that you can start one quest and then switch to another in the middle and still go back and complete it later.

Enemies:
The enemies change from zone to zone too. You fight humans, spiders, birds, dogs, monsters and the like. Some of them shoot guns, spit projectile, hit you with things or try to suicide bomb you. The variety is vast and they increase in difficulty depending on your level and the quest.

Story:
The story is pretty basic. I am not big on following stories in games like this because there are TONS of quests but it has something to do with a group of scientists being sent to find a vault. Then you start to help the last one left find the vault. I’m in the middle of the story and that’s about all I know about it. I’m sure you can find a better explanation of it online somewhere.

Weapons:
One of the best parts of this game is the weapons. There are tons and tons of weapons and later on in the game you find more rare ones and you find them more often. There are a few types of weapons (Sniper, Shotty, SMG, Combat Rifle, Pistol, Revolver, and Rocket Launcher). Every weapon you find is different in some way either. You can find the most basic weapons to weapons that explode on impact or send shock waves. The grenades work the same way. It’s exciting every time you open a chest of see a weapon fall from an enemy. I really enjoy loot type games so this is right up my alley.

Co-op:
You can play with up to four other players in co-op with your own character. Anything you get from the wasteland you can take back to your own game in single player. The enemies get harder and harder for each co-op partner you have. With four people the enemies are pretty hard to take down by yourself and there are alot of them. Co-op is pretty fun.
