After the Fall Review (Dark Traveler)

This game has amazing promise, but right about now I can't recommend this game due to the bugs and cancerous mechanics i've come across.
GAME CONCEPT: It's pretty much Left4Dead in VR you fight multiple zombie types and waves of enemies through the map until you come across a safe point to buy more items and push on to the boss. After finishing a level you are rewarded with possible weapons and weapon mods.
-You take the fight to the freezing zombies in a 1-4 person crew/fireteam.
+++++++PROS++++++
You get a nice zombie hunting simulator with your friends or random mates
Fun and engaging allowing for multiple play throughs as zombies spawn in many locations and in greater numbers as the level is increased.
Current guns feel very nice.
---------CONS-----------
Players glitch the map allowing them to cheese the maps while stuck in the walls not taking any damage as they shoot zombies which takes away from players who worked hard and have good coordination. (So now you have someone who potentially hordes needed items and supplies while they create a mission *3 longer than it needed to be)
Players/Host leave quite frequently causing you to lose all your progression on the current level as well as rewards along the way. (Even if you've beaten the boss already)
Servers or peer to peer (how ever the devs are running their connectivity is cancerous) 75% of games end with players unwillingly leaving or being dropped for no reason.
Long play waits: If you want to try a harder difficulty you can spend 30-160 mins just looking for a team only to get halfway through the level before the host disconnects kicking all players back to the lobby.
Not enough weapons to keep players engaged in the long run.
The sheer unstability of the game where you can't 100% secure the items you've collected.
The lobby filter is pretty terrible as you get random players or are invited by random players who don't possess the skills for the levels they choose. Getting a team of equally skilled players rarely ever happen.
(Which isn't on the players trying a new difficulty but sometimes the bots are better than the human players)
=====================================================
Right now the BIGGEST threat to this title is its own stability.
Will I, myself contiune to play yes..... but I enjoy torturing myself for some ungodly reason.
For new players willing to pick up the game just wait... it's not worth it currently and you can actually progress quickly so you it is not like if you don't join NOW your at a loss (that's simply not true).
I do however looking forward to seeing all of you AFTER the game is fixed and is playable and complete (which it has a ways to go).
