Dead Island
 
Anyone play this? Might be a future buy if any good.

G 09-07-2011 01:15 AM

I will have it soon

D Mac 09-07-2011 01:17 AM

I need to get into Goozex for shit like this. I also want Rise of Nightmares for Kinect.

#BROKEN Hasney 09-07-2011 02:07 AM

I have the PC version which is completey broken at this stage and yet it is ridiculously fun. I can't save, can't do 4 player co-op (although 3 is fine), hitting Y let's me walk through Walls... Yet it is still so fun. Fallout 3'with zombies, multiplayer and weapon designing? Brilliant.

Tempted by this, but not 100% going to buy it straight away.

Ermaximus 09-07-2011 09:35 AM

Got it yesterday and played a good long bit with a buddy in co-op. Amazing game. Had fun running down zombies with a truck and beating the shit out of the undead with my hammer.

Might wait til it's going cheap before I get it.

LoDownM 09-07-2011 01:07 PM

Is the co-op on this online only or is there a split screen/lan option?

Jura 09-07-2011 05:05 PM

Been watching gameplay of it on a stream and looks fun/entertaining but seems to be lacking a lot for me to drop $49.99 on it unless it gets better later on and has good replay value.

Disturbed316 09-08-2011 08:07 AM

I've read it's really buggy too, although there are rumours of a patch coming out to sort it. It's a shame, this had such promise.

#BROKEN Hasney 09-08-2011 08:27 AM

If you've played Oblivion, Fallout 3 or New Vegas when they came out, you'll be fine here. There's very rarely huge, game-breaking bugs, just small niggles.

Had a headless zombie attack me last night. Apparently knocking his block off with a Hanbo wasn't enough to kill him so he kept flailing his arms at me.

#BROKEN Hasney 09-08-2011 09:44 AM

Ha, reminds me of this for some reason.

Hasney, I would love to kill zombies with you brotha.

#BROKEN Hasney 09-08-2011 09:57 AM

You nabbed it on PC? My official unlock date is Friday (retarded artifically locking me out of a product based on where I live though, seriously) so I'll be jumping online around then.

Ermaximus 09-08-2011 01:43 PM

No, I have it on the 360. My laptop isn't powerful enough to run PC games. I need to invest in a gaming PC soon.

Fryza 09-08-2011 03:05 PM

Been playing it solo. Like it quite a bit.

G 09-14-2011 01:28 PM

This game just makes me wish I was playing L4D instead. I'm guessing this a ton more fun in co op. I just can't seem to get into it, and the constant picking up items and shit is so annoying to me. I will give it a few more quests before I finally give up, if I do.

LoDownM 09-16-2011 12:49 PM

Don't know if it's a glitch or not, but I managed to get the knife from the chinese chicks fury full time. No stamina use or durability loss on it at all.

#BROKEN Hasney 09-22-2011 04:58 PM

Kind of happy for these guys right now. It's been the #1 selling game in the UK since launch and actually has stock shortages. Pre-owned retailers have shoved the price up above RRP to capitalise though, damn vultures.

That they are. Fucking hate working for Gamestop some times.

AKin3D 09-23-2011 04:08 AM

I've been watching a walkthrough for the game and it dosen't seem as bad as everyone had putout there. Should I get it?

Yes! Get it for the 360 and I can power level you.

That goes double for you sir!

The Jayman 09-23-2011 01:44 PM

Well then I will see you tonight

Ermaximus 09-23-2011 01:52 PM

I go out every Friday, but if I'm not playing Gears 3 between 6:30-8:30 tonight, send me an invite and I'll help you out.

The Jayman 09-23-2011 01:53 PM

sounds like a plan

G 09-24-2011 12:39 AM

if anyone has finished the story, how long did it take

RoXer 09-24-2011 03:55 PM

Only 2 missions in but it seems like fun. Also seems like it would be more fun in co-op. Also also seems like it's going to be annoying having to replace your weapons.

RoXer 09-24-2011 03:56 PM

I had an oar that was down to about 50% and so I picked up a brand new paddle but that one had that same amount of "health" left. Do you not replace the weapon until it runs out of "health" completely?

G 09-24-2011 04:24 PM

you should buy it so we can co op while the game is "relevant"

There's skill's that let you increase the durability of weapons once you've leveled up enough.

Ended up having to get it for PS3, due to a hubby not wanting to drive all over the world (Gamestop was out of it for 360) to get a game for HIS 360. Oh well.

Anyway, I ended todays play right as I was going to go get the bank truck. I've done most of the side missions. I'm still low on my level though. I guess I'll just have to go kill more Thugs.

Redbox'd this...Soooooooo many Glitches

Lionsgate has officially bought the rights to make a movie based off of the game but will only involve the debut trailer because like most movies based on games, they didn't bother or want to play the game to find out how the actual story goes.

http://www.giantbomb.com/news/lionsg...-a-movie/3697/

Didn't the creators of the game mention before how nothing in the trailer actually happens in the game and only used it to hype people?

Savio 09-28-2011 11:39 PM

they probably tried to play it but it glitched out on them
