What are your thoughts on this game?

Anyone else looking forward to the new expansion and big update?

fun as dicks
>>
Got it for $20 recently.

Waiting for the big Feb update to actually play it though.
>>
>>321448501
enhanced edition will be a free upgrade to the game available now or a whole new purchase?
>>
>>321449079
Free patch to everyone.

Only shit you need to buy is the new expansion IIRC.
>>
I had a lot of fun with it for the time I played it. I got to the rich part of town then decided to play other games for a while.

I guess I'll wait for that new update before I get back in. We won't have to make a new file to play the new stuff right?
>>
What's coming in the update? Can I get a super hard mode or something ?
>>
>>321448501
looks fun, let me go onto steam and buy it right now......................oh wait
>>
>>321448501

Loved that it could make you pretty paranoid about not being prepared for darkness.

Cause only pussies didn't go out at night.
>>
>>321448501
boring.
>>
First video of one of the enhancements.

its poopy usless shit

I Liked it,
it's really get you in to the mood

Good night and good luck.
>>
>>321449507
Nightmare difficulty is coming with the big update.
>>
>>321449619
Steam works for me...
>>
>>321450236
What's the point of Legendary Levels?
Just to unlock those things?
>>
One of the most fun games I've ever played, really looking forward to this expansion
>>
>>321450608
Instead of actually making whole new skill sets they just made a couple, locked them behind 250 levels and called it a day.

epic
>>
Helldivers or Dying Light?
>>
>>321448501
Did monster mode ever get buffed? I got bored with it after a few weeks when everyone and their dog knew how to cheese you.
>>
>>321450236
Wow, that channel has some pretty decently made machinima commercials.

Fun gameplay
Awful characters
Awful story
Awful dialog
Boring/tedious side missions
Quarantine zones weren't just part of the story and made more interesting as a result, left to be repeatable garbage shit
Difficulty curve is total ass on Hard mode.
>>
I loved it. I played for 10 hours straight one night. I thought that the slums were the only map so I stopped playing. Should have stuck to the main missions instead of doing side shit I guess. Might pick it up again.
>>
Its pretty good. Waiting for the expansion since after that they'll go back to Hellraid
>>
>>321449470
>>321452280
Y'all should get back into it.
The second map is better than the first one.
>>
>>321450849
Why compare the games?
What do they have in common?
>>
>>321453891
both are in sale, I'm looking to buy the best. Thats all.
>>
>>321453751
Only if you force yourself to not use the grappling hook. It makes the game a joke.
>>
Story and characters are horribly shit and you get too powerful after 60% of the game.
>>
>>321448501

I ended up having a lot more fun than I initially thought I would. Playing it Coop is fun as fuck, the parkour, combat, and perk system is all pretty well done. Graphics were good, especially the lighting. The story was garbage, but that doesn't really bother me. Nighttime was really well done, was actually frightening to go out at night, at least until you got strong enough to kill the super zombies.
>>
Pleasant surprise, didn't expect much, ended up wasting 40 hours on it
>>
Pretty fun for the price I paid... game does get really easy after a while. Say goodbye to difficulty if you find any of the legendary crafted weapons w/ the companion app its super easy to target materials.

Story predictable, and enraging at times, your character is a fucking retard.
Gameplay is great however and that's what matters. Night gets stupid easy compared to the first time you're railroaded into running at night.
>>
>>321452121

The only thing I had issue with on hard mode was when you get caught by Raiz and tossed in the arena. You had to fight a juggernaut and you did hardly any damage to it and it could kill you in two hits.
>>
>>321448501
This game is stresses the fuck out of me, I can only play it in morning or noon times if I don't want to panic. Even then when it's night and i'm going to bed I remember all those stressful moments, the atmposphere and the music

I don't understand why because I can play most horror games including Resident Evil and Fatal Frame games easily and at any time
>>
>>321454960
It's long and annoying just running around looking for more explosive objects to throw at him.
>>
its too scary
>>
>>321455208

Only two propane tanks spawn in the arena and at best that''ll take him down to 30-40%. I was also on NG+. If you died the propane tanks wouldn't respawn if I recall, not unless you restarted. The machete that you get does less than 1% damage to him.
>>
>implying I'm going to buy "Dead Island but not Dead Island: Rehash Edition".
>>
>>321455691

That's why I pirated it when it first came out, but the game was surprisingly really fucking fun, it's significantly better than Dead Island.
>>
>>321455480
They must respawn because I remember throwing way more than that.
>>
>>321455869

They might have changed it, I was doing this when hard mode had just come out and I specifically remember only 2 spawning in specific spots.
>>
>>321455869
Tanks respawn all the time, everywhere, just by turning your back.
>>
>>321456017
>>321455976

Here's an example vid

>>
>>321448501
Got it for Christmas today, haven't played it yet though.
>>
>>321456017

They must have changed it then, I was stuck on that part for a long time, I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that they weren't respawning.
>>
>>321448501
Great atmosphere, good co-op, way fucking better than Dead Island. Overall a very good game. The only bad part is the story is pretty crap towards the end, but it's still okay for what it is, and the premise/setting is at least superb.

Definitely looking forward to the expansion.
>>
It's like dead island and mirrors edge fucked.

4/10 didn't enjoy, just uninstalled yesterday to make space actually.

I uninstalled it, to make space, for nothing too...

I just got rid of it because I never play it and I'll have room for the next game I install. So that proves its even worse of a game that nothing replaced it

Meh.
>>
>>321455065
Is this the only game that scares you that much?
I mean, there are scarier games than Dying Light.
Hell, many people would say Dying Light is more action-adventure than horror anyways.
>>
>>321448501
overrated shit where jumping around means the combat is forgotten and garbage
>>
Has Kyle's voice been changed in this video? it sounds off

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwNpilWUV3s
>>
Never finished the story, because it's so retarded and cliche and the dialogue is terrible.
But the core game mechanics are pretty good. I think Dying Light nailed the atmosphere of the post apocalyptic world - it's very eerie.
>>
>>321456337
>It's like dead island and mirrors edge fucked.
>4/10 didn't enjoy, just uninstalled yesterday to make space actually.

Interestingly, I didn't really enjoy Dead Island, but liked Dying Light. While there are many mechanic similarities, Dying Light does the whole post apoc things much better, imo.
>>
>>321457528

Been awhile since I played, but it sounds different.
>>
>>321448501
Not great but it's fun
>>
>>321457665
>atmosphere of the post apocalyptic world
It's just a post-apocalyptic city sealed off from the rest of the world.

>Awful characters
I agree, but this one made my dick hard as diamonds for some reason.
>>
>>321455691
Techland learned their lessons from Dead Island.
>>
>>321448501
Game is boring. Stopped playing after 30 minutes.
>>
is the following free?
>>
>>321459023
No.
>>
>>321459023
15 dollars
Map is bigger than the other two combined
>>
>>321459530
>other two
Just played for 2 hours, is there another map?
>>
Very fun game. Play the nighthunter vs survivor gamemode. Shits seriously tense especially 1v1.
>>
>>321459861
The second map is called "Old Town".
It's the district of Harran where all the rich people lived.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=952wP8VuC1U

The third map will be bigger than the Slums and Old Town combined as that other anon said.
>>
>>321459861
Yeah. You got a slum area, and then Old Town which is just mostly tall buildings.
>>
>>321459861
yeah, rich area.
>>
>>321460381
Not to mention incredibly one sided.
>>
So when is the "super expansion" coming out?
>>
>>321462582
feb
>>
For a game that has such a focus on combat it sure does like to punish you for fighting anything.

played the demo and enjoyed it

I'll probably pick up the new edition with the DLC once it comes out
>>
>>321463278
How so?
>>
>>321463548
Guess he means the stamina and the fact you can get overrun easily.
>>
>>321465379
Also weapons degrade too.
