Killing Floor 2 is a first-person zombie shooter with a full featured co-op campaign. The gameplay takes advantage of a super realistic dismemberment system to deliver a very exhilarating and gory zombie shooting gameplay.

Pros
Pro Visceral combat
The MEAT (Massive Evisceration And Trauma) system designates 22 different contact points on each enemy that will react realistically to players’ attacks – for example, you can cut enemies in half vertically and horizontally, dismember them at the hand or shoulder, even shoot off their lower jaw without removing the head entirely. This level of realism – and ultraviolence – makes the combat incredibly impactful.
Pro Cool time manipulation mechanic
Whenever a player makes a long-range headshot, messy bomb kills, or any other skillful takedown of zeds (the game's zombie-like creatures) it puts every player into 'zed time." This slow downs time, turning everything black and white, except for gunfire, explosions and blood, all beautifully rendered. Not only does it make you feel powerful, but also serves as positive reinforcement, since going into "zed time" means you or your team is doing well.
Cons
Con Currently no listen server function
It can be a pain to set up a private multiplayer game due to the omission of listen server functionality. Dedicated server support is available but not well documented; it can be daunting and time consuming to set up for new users or those who are not technically inclined.

Out of Date Pros + Cons
Con Game is still in early access and therefore isn’t complete
In its current build, Killing Floor 2 only has four of the 10 classes that were promised, only a handful of weapons to choose from, and only 6 levels to play on. While still fun and beautiful, it lacks replayability and falls short of feeling like a complete game. A beta state also means there may be bugs, which can detract from gameplay. Unless your desire to play is unbearable, wait for the full release.
