3rd person shooters in general are weak in terms of gameplay. Camera angles are usually bad and AI on both sides are terrible. This game plays mainly to the genre's weakness instead of its strengths. All weapons in the game are weak, from the bolt pistol and knife combo up to the poweraxe pistol combo and each of the range weapons ranging from the bolt gun to the grenade launcher. Firing these explosives, unless direct hit, will only damage an enemy. Most of the enemies become bullet sponges and take almost whole clips to down. The melee is weak as I mentioned earlier, it takes equal amounts of hits to kill regardless of the weapon, a knife, chainsword or poweraxe. Health is only replenished by executing an enemy and while you are doing this you are still vulnerable to attack and cant do anything about it. There are no parry functions to prevent damage so when you get mobbed, and you will get mobbed, by a dozen enemies your attacks will rarely have an area of effect action. It becomes more an act of frustration than fun, especially when you fight waves of enemies in super tight quarters and your only viable weapon is your melee equipment.
