Pros
Pro Extremely fun gameplay
Destructible environments, large explosions, dirt and blood flying everywhere, scaling a wall with just your knife, shooting rockets larger than the body of a man, and many more over-the-top gameplay elements. Broforce is just a blast to play.
Pro Excellent at co-op
Four players can join a single game both locally and online. It just feels really awesome spreading mayhem and destruction with three of your friends as blood, guts, and explosions surround you from all sides.
Pro Varied characters keep the gameplay fresh
There are more than 20 different unlockable characters to try out. This keeps otherwise really simple gameplay from going stale as fast by allowing you to enjoy a variety of playstyles.
Pro Great references to the 80s action movies
Much like an 80s action movie, the violence, destruction, and plot are all overly exaggerated. The playable characters are the members of an underfunded, under equipped military organization that somehow outguns everyone else. Their bullets seem to have the magical property to explode everything they come in contact with. There's also an insane amount of explosions and blood everywhere. Even their names are references such as Brobocop (Robocop), Bro Lee (Bruce Lee), or Brominator (Terminator).
Pro Gives players the ability to customize their generals and heroes
TW:W gives players the chance to customize the abilities of their chosen legendary lord, generals and even heroes through a detailed skill tree. Skills vary from individual character skills usable in battles (such as spells) to passive skills which influence army movement in the campaign map.
Pro Great setting
Being based around the Warhammer tabletop fantasy world allows for an in depth game with tons lore behind it. Fighting off vampires and zombies are just some of the things to be found in the game.
Pro Tons of replayability
Thanks to the different factions available in the game, the player has a lot of choice as to how they would like to play, which gives a lot of replayability. There are five different campaigns available (four in the game and one as DLC) that each has its own faction to control and set story, which will take quite a bit of time to each be experience to their complete endings.
Cons
Con Can be pretty difficult
You can be killed by just one bullet, which creates a trial and error type of gameplay where you have to perfectly memorize all enemy locations and/or movement patterns. This gets multiplied by a hundred during boss battles, so after dying a lot of times you might start feeling frustrated.
Con Dying in co-op can feel a lot more punishing than it should be
If you run out of lives in co-op, you'll be forced wait until your teammates revive you by freeing a prisoner or until the level ends. If you're not very good at the game, this might happen a lot more often, which just turns into you watching others play the game and not playing yourself.
Con Poor character balancing
Some characters are obviously better than the others, or are highly situational. For example, the shotgun wielding character has really low range, so sometimes it's really hard to take out the enemies before they rip you to shreds from afar.
Con Only four factions are available in the base game
There are only four factions are available without DLCs (The Empire, Vampire Counts, Greenskins and Dwarfes). Other playable races and factions are currently being released periodically as DLCs.
Con Maps can feel constrained
Due to the compartmentalizing of factions and which land they can take over means that the games maps can feel smaller than they appear since only certain sections can be played on.
