Killing Floor

A timeless masterpiece that started as a mod for UT 2004 and released on steam as a really good standalone game! Basically Left 4 Dead and Call of Duty zombies before these games was even an idea in a human's head. Despite the age of this game it's still a very peak COOP horror zombie shooter with friends or public servers with randoms! This game even after all these years still has a dedicated playerbase with active servers so it is not dead whatsoever. If you played KF2 before this just know you're going to experience challenging and unforgiving gameplay along with slow movement as in no ability to sprint, once you get the hang of it you'll have a blast! Unlike the sequel this game has a really creepy cool atmosphere love the rusty aesthetic many of the maps this game has, I can see why many people like this game over KF2 this game has some unique looks compared to the sequel. The soundtrack in this game is a banger gotta love some industrial tunes from zYnthetic and Dirge's metal music. Buy yourself this great classic (unless you already own it because you bought the deluxe edition of KF2) and skip modern day garbage zombie shooters like MWIII and BO6 zombies. This is a game that everyone should have in their Steam library! Since Killing Floor 3 is on the way I hope the prequel is just as good as this and the sequel.

PEAK fun zombie coop shooter and watermelon smashing LOVE the aesthetic to this game.

very fun to pass the time with.

Good game,Nice to see there's still a lot of servers and active players in the game.The game music is very good

cod mixed with left 4 dead.. perfect!. 7/10

False adverstising, the game is called Killing floor, but in the game itself you just kill some random ass demons what a fucking scam

Attempting to matchmake with friends is abysmal. Still a neat game.

las clases del juego están buenas como la stalker

The most exciting zombie killer game. It's very easy to play, without need of reading any tutorial. Just goes to action directly. I play it with mouse and a gaming keyboard and it feels great. You don't have crosshair but there's some free software for that and also some paid and cheap here at Steam. If you play without crosshair, it's good too because it adds extra stress and challenge. The music is calm but when zombies appear it switches to heavy metal, which is even more great!

Cool game

if you never played this game go haze yourself

老游戏了，打僵尸非常爽

This game is still, to this day, one of the best when compared to all its' competitors. How is it possible, that a game that's over ten-years old, outlasts both of its' sequels, and an infuriating wave of disappointing Zombie-Shooters every year?!!

It alright but i have no booty to play with

What turned into a simple mod formed into a great game with a heavy metal soundtrack (absolute plus) I just wished the game was more alive, Used to play this back in the day when I was younger and it still has the same charm it had all those years ago, Still has a small dedicated player base as well mostly Russian lol but they are chill. I still think the sequel is much better and more kick ass but the heavy metal soundtrack in this game takes me back and the soundtrack overall in general is really good, really fun mutant zombie killing fun to pass the time nothing too in depth or anything it's just fun.

This is a Floor that you can go Killing on.

Good game, simply better in aesthetic than the second and third game, but difficulty names are quite inaccurate - if Normal is that hard then I don't want to know what Hell On Earth is. There's also the problem of making private servers being quite confusing and difficult, so you have to resort to public servers. How fun.

BEST KILLING FLOOR GAME,

Интересная игра, но быстро надоедает, интересно смотреть на анимацию перезарядки вашего снаряжения. Ещё одна из причин почему игра так сильно бесит, я наиграл в L4D и считаю, что управление в KF это неудобно особенно в самом начале, связанный с прицелом как будто мне специально руки выворачивают при первом появлении на локации и длится это секунд 7-8. Боссов очень мало, Особых заражённых тоже, есть те, которые бесят, сама механика полностью бесит, к вам подходит заражённый и замедляет, а более точнее полностью останавливает и пока вы не отобьётесь дальше не пойдёте. При переходе на следующий уровень оружие не сохраняется и нужно покупать его заново, то есть заново копить деньги. Босс или любой NPC может зажать вас в углу и не дать возможности выйти вам из сложившейся ситуации, когда играете в Соло (режим для одного игрока). Скудный запас фраз у боссов. Платное дополнение к оружию, которое никакого эффекта, кроме хвастания скинов, которые даже продавать нельзя. Замедление времени и продавца никак нельзя пропустить.

Killing Floor 2 was even better.

Public Hell On Earth games are fair and balanced. Ask the 10 Scrakes and 4 Fleshpounds homing on my position to give me a big hug. Thank the local firebug for setting them on fire to make the hug even warmer :)

But in all seriousness KF1 is good except for leveling up certain perks,difficulty is challenging depending on the team. Also the M99 creates a black hole in anyone's bank account.

Perks

Grungiest party game ever.

Favorite co op first person shooter game and very underrated this game doesnt get enough love. i love the horror atmosphere

Interesting game, but already outdated

I have to say that this game manage to create incredible atmosphere and genuinely puts in a sense of tension when you're exploring certain maps trying to run. It feels a lot like a source game, but with a bit more of blood. Compared to the second game in the series, there are far fewer weapons and perks.

You can't skip the trader without mods and the hitboxes are a real problem. You'll often land what looks like a clean headshot, only for the damage to register on the chest. It's especially frustrating when you're playing solo and every shot matters.

There are also plenty of spots where you can get stuck, some animations can't be canceled, you can only sprint with the knife equipped, and healing requires manually selecting the syringe in your inventory, which really breaks the flow you need to not stress too much.

I think it would be a little better if I had a friend like me irl who liked these kind of old games to test it out and beat it together, getting all the achievements and having fun (and some rage because this game is so annoying sometimes hahaha).

Best zombie survival shooter without a doubt.

Fantastic game for the whole family

Killing floor 3 shoulda been healing ceiling

The OG. Was lots of fun in its day. Probably more worthwhile to get one of the newer ones.

This game is so awesome. Killing Floor 2 players should play this one once.

I have fond memories of playing this game at 3am on a school laptop with one earbud in to hear if my parents were in the hall. Game still holds up!

(To get around the 82 fps cap open your killingfloor.ini in the game folder and change the max fps string to 200. In game press ~ and type "netspeed 20000" without quotes)

Killing Floor 1 is almost timeless. The atmosphere, the look of the game, the amazing maps and the great weapon models, the weapon animations and sounds. The biggest issue with the game and the part that holds it back from being the best horde shooter ever is the hitboxes. There are plenty of videos on the internet that show that the hitboxes are completely broken, making headshots impossible unless you've studied the jank of this game and achieved a PhD in where the hitbox should be in X scenario. If you can't feel solid feedback from when you shoot, it leads to frustration.

The only reason I am recommending this game is because of the ScRN balance patch which fixes the hitboxes. If you are going to play this game, only play it using the ScRN mod or preferably find a server hosting the ScRN mod since it stores your progress. It adds in new weapons, more classes, and makes the game into the timeless masterpiece that it should have been on launch. The only issue with this method is that the balance patch is not 'whitelisted' meaning that any levels you gain when using it are locked behind either the server you're playing on or on your machine.

Also, if you buy this game, I can't recommend getting the full edition with all the DLC enough. When the game goes on sale, that full edition drops to around 13 dollars which is a fair enough price for such a great game.

fun game! hard to get the controlls but fun none the less i like how the flashlight has a more limit then when you used in kf2

here after being massively disappointed with killing floor 3. purty good.

Multiplayer is pretty much dead, so you cant even level the medic class without other people. Its a bit harder than Killing Floor 2 on both the eyes and in difficulty. The perks take more of a grind to level up. For support specialist for example you need to weld a lot of doors in addition to shotgun kills. I'd recommend for only those who have rigs that cant handle Killing Floor 2. In a world where Killing Floor 2 exists though...avoid the first game.

Killing Floor:
- A Gorey horror FPS wave shooter

If Tripwire ever remastered it with modern polish while keeping the core intact, I’d be all in!

Killing Floor 3:
- A live service, battle-pass, FPS hero shooter

nevermind, I'll recommend the OG

Me buy guns.
Me Shoot Zombies.
Me Happy.

Killing Floor: A Business Model I Can Respect
When I first loaded up Killing Floor, I felt a familiar rush—the thrill of total control. You and your team of well-armed professionals take out endless waves of mindless, expendable creatures, all while stockpiling cash and resources for the long haul. It’s basically a Wall Street investment strategy, but with more chainsaws and flamethrowers.

The game throws you into abandoned city streets, creepy underground labs, and desolate industrial complexes—places where nobody hears the screaming. The environment reminded me of my private real estate holdings, minus the luxurious carpeting and VIP clientele. The sense of isolation? Authentic.

Now, let’s talk mechanics. The money system is brilliant. Each round, you earn cash for kills, reinforcing the golden rule: the more bodies that pile up, the richer you get. Just like real life, you can loan out your wealth to "associates," but they’ll always be in your debt. I respect a game that understands how power truly works.

The enemies are a standout. The Clots are weak-minded, easy to herd, and easily controlled—I know a thing or two about that. The Sirens? Loud, shrieking nuisances that need to be silenced immediately. And the Patriarch? A wealthy, well-connected individual who mysteriously vanishes, only to return stronger than before. Now that’s storytelling I can relate to.

That said, I have some complaints. The prison-like environments hit a little too close to home. The AI teammates are unreliable—kind of like certain high-profile friends who “never met me” the moment things got hot. And worst of all? There’s no way to buy your way out of the final round. In reality, there’s always a way out—unless someone makes sure there isn’t.

Final Verdict? 10/10.
The only thing missing is a panic button when the authorities start asking questions.

솔직히 킬플 2는 이거 반만 따라오고 킬플3은 아직 나오진 않았지만 반도 못따라올듯

I like how the game works. It brings nostalgic to my childhood. I miss this moment huhu

One of the best Round based Zombie games ever, better than the 2nd and 3rd game!

If it's a choice between Killing Floor 1 or 2, go with 2.
The only thing this has above KF2 is the Horror Atmosphere.
Killing Floor 2 just has better game-play in general.
But this is still a great game!

used to hold little gaming groups in school to play this in the school library, always had my back when i was bored

KF1 still does hold up tonally and has a great atmosphere, but compared to its sequel it is drastically held back by limited enemy interaction scope, simplistic class identities, poor map design and clunky mechanics (*not affectionate*)

Хорошая игар много хороших воспоминаний с ней свзяно не смотрите на время другой акк просто
Знакомых в нее не щас не затащить.
Да и народ особо не играет впрципе на серва пытался зайти но спустя час загрузки забил все это качать хоть и пошел на обычную карту все ровно там моды какие-то были.
В соло по бегать ну уже не то игра не про это а про чтоб с рандомами или друганами залететь по стрелять по угарать по чилить
Вторая часть успела задрать ибо там народ еще более буйный стал чем в первой части и либо все играют сами по себе либо по мете либо орут на тебя что ты не по мете играешь на сложном или нормале
Тройку смотрел и это просто прикол вторая часть на обновленном двигле но оно просто выглядит хуже как по мне может потом поправят но щас игра выглядит как прикол скорее чем норм игра

Надеюсь что серия не умрет но жалко что про первую часть прям словно совсем забыли

neat game, nice community to hop in and play with

We're 7 playing together and it feels fun, this games is good and potato pc friendly. Not all of us have a decent pc to play Killing Floors 2. So we bought Killing Floors 1 instead. The thing that we don't know is. THERE IS FREAKING BUNDLE THAT INCLUDE KILLING FLOOR 1 & 2 JUST FOR 0.1$ HIGHER PRICE. DAMMM WE GOT SCAMMED XD

played it 14 years ago and it still bangs, even better than KF2 and KF3, the atmosphere, the aesthetic itself, everything.. I just love this game man, i'm glad that MP is still alive and i can still have fun games with the sweatiest sweats ever seen in my life, revive this and make it more popular again. You can even make the modders themselves work on this game and they'll do well with updating it

Killing the floor and zombie like abominations to gain loauds of munaey, this game is great even if people prefer KF2 more than this.
