Players express disappointment with the gameplay, noting a lack of gore and the removal of certain mechanics, such as the absence of head explosions when shooting infected enemies unless specific conditions are met. The overall brutality of deaths has also diminished, impacting the game's intensity.

- “I found the combat system to be clunky and unresponsive, which made the gameplay frustrating at times.”
