A team of up to 6 men must survive 10 waves of terrifying and disturbing creatures created by Horzine Biotech, with a boss at the end of wave 10. You use the money earned buy killing these creatures for buying different weapons, preferably suited for your current perk (Sharpshooter, Firebug, Demolitions, Berserker, Support, Medic). It's great fun and great teamwork!
To be honest, I really wish there was campaign type missions revolving around the story. Here's kinda a short overview. But, if you want to know each story behind each Z.E.D then search on the wiki. There really isn't a "clear" story, just small snippets of what has happened.
Edit: I think that KF2 coincides with KF1's story also.

There's sort of a story. Think of it more like nazi zombies (the call of duty thing) but you can complete it.
Wave after wave of enemies that slowly get faster/have more health and in the later rounds stronger and harder enemies appear with more abilities etc
Then there's a boss you have to kill at the end of the waves who's fairly tough when you're inexperienced.
It's a solid game and you can get it really really cheaply. One of my favourite PC games of all time.
According to PC Gamer.. yes.
EDIT: Also, Killing Floor is next weekend. FUCK YEAH. Love that game. More people to play with. Source
EDIT2: Nuclear Dawn will be 40% off, but is currently $7 on Amazon... + you get a $5 video game gift card in January.
EDIT3:
Posted: Tuesday, November 29, 2011 - 17:53 We are not so proud to announce that the Nuclear Dawn Steam free weekend has been delayed by a fortnight. The Nuclear Dawn free weekend on Steam will now be held from the 15th to the 19th of December.
The circumstances behind this change are entirely out of our control, and we were just presented with the facts last night.
As things stand, we are going to release a large part of the update we’re currently working on in the next 10 days, ahead of the free weekend. This way, players who purchased the game over the Autumn Sale will be able to enjoy some of the promised upgrades at least.
Needless to say, we are less than thrilled with this chain of events, though we welcome the chance to polish the new content even more, and to do some public testing of the new features, so that everything runs as smoothly as possible on the 15th.
See you soon!
Why not? The Pyro is already in Killing Floor.
(That said, this Pyro does look an awful lot like the Killing Floor Pyro. Not identical, but close enough to make me wonder. Do we have a source for this?)
Theres a lot of summer events going on starting today. Someone made a note of all the summer events on the steam forum, lots of games are gonna have summer achievements and they start tomorrow. Here's an example.
The next sale should be the summer one expected at around the 30th of June because of this: http://www.killingfloorthegame.com/summer/
And a lot of games have recently added summer based achievements that indicate a sale on its way.
If you love some FPS action and want co-op, check out Killing Floor. It's a class-based co-op zombie FPS with great replayability. If you're really interested I may be able to get you a legitimate copy for half price.
