Why is this game so good ?

Why is this game so good ?

>use a weapon 5 times
>breaks

I dont know about you guys but I was eager to play this, when I finally got the chance it was meh, mainly because I didn't feel the weight of the parkour freerunning like in Mirror's Edge

Why are you lying ?

Because the movement is phenomenal, the day/night shit is done well, the combat is intense and brutal and the devs are based enough to still make free DLC.

My fellow ebonic gentleman

The fun of parkour is block behind a fucking big grinding wall. I finished the game and I still didn't reach the last level where the fun begins.

That's why I modded this game to have infinite weapon durability.

First zombie game with crafting that actually pulled off the tension and risk/reward of staying in high concentration zones without getting grindy. Also the animations and basic QTE's aren't intrusive and don't interrupt the flow of gameplay while keeping you grounded as something other than a head-height floating camera.

Seriously, the parkour isn't world class but it's next to flawless considering the conditions the game takes place in and how it's used. Now, the perks suck and tend to give you must haves at a few power spike levels, but there's enough variety for it to avoid being the way Far Cry 3 was.


I like the way the devs handled it. It's a sharp game that doesn't overstep what it is. I'm looking forward to Techland's next game, really. Seems like they learned a lot after the trainwreck that was Dead Island 1.

>Haha you get a silencer but you need SUBSONIC SPECIAL AMMO DUDE LMAO
Fuck off. Just give us a silencer that can be used for normal fucking ammo you cunts

just parkour a lot

the game changes drastically as you level up the skill trees. Imo if you get the vaulting over zombies skill and eventually the ones that let you run a longer amount of time it's really great.

I love mirror's edge and I love this game (and it has a grapple hook to cheese the fuck out of parkour so that's nice too)

i played the shit out of dead island but can't get into this for some reason :/

what do?

The start of the game plays completely differently to the rest. The start is like a survival horror, by the end it's more like an action game

>combat stamina
>weapon durability
>weapon loot tiers
>combat skills and parkour skills locked behind grindwall
the ideas are nice, but extremely poor in execution. i still had fun, but goddamn it was tedious

>literaly ended up staying up all night just to finish the game
>didn't get to bed last night until 7 am

Do i go into NG+, play the following, or do some PVP Sup Forums?

then i might put the effort in.

following

I just remember wishing the game would stop fucking giving me sidequests. I was trying to do them all but they just wouldn't fucking stop

>fart
>conga line of virals appears

oh well let's climb the nearest car again

thats literally how guns work tho

the fucking suppressor doesn't make the gun quieter, subsonic ammo does

Parkour is fantastic, flows incredibly smoothly while still having weight to it. Combat is a tedious grind till you get the level 9 head stomp ability. Nighttime is tense and never feels unfair. It's usually your own fault for getting spotted, but shaking off a pursuit is doable if very nerve wracking. The weakest element by far is the main plot, but the side quests are usually well done so they make up for it.

>expecting a supersonic wall to be quiet
confirmed to know nothing about guns

You can't strap fucking phone batteries to a samurai sword or butane torches to a bat and have it make it better either fag, nor can you grapnel hook your way super fast across an entire city. Dying Light is cartoonish to the extreme already who the fuck cares.

Please tell me more about the hyper realism of dying light, a parkour zombie game where you can strap butane torches to clay mores to make them more powerful.

>there is a high likelyhood this guy has posted in a BotW thread praising how great it is

the point is that guns have a trade off, that being they're loud and attract the stronger zombies. it's a balance issue

My one problem with the game, virals should feel like a consequence for using louder, more powerful weapons and whatnot but instead they throw like 5 of them at you because a hidden timer ticked down.

Also i love the main game but the following just doesn't feel very fun, is there something i'm doing wrong?

So just say that, don't act like it's about realism faggotron.

we just pointed out that real guns don't work like that. calm your autism

Why would you bother in a dying light thread other than a poor attempt at acting like a know it all faggot? We all know video games don't work like real life, fuck off back to /k/ or John Wick threads on Sup Forums.

Polish

why so mad? it's okay that you don't know how guns work, so calm down

What do the Polish have to do with the game being good?

He never even implied it's how guns work dumbass, he said he didn't care and was annoyed at it.

"Haha just wanted to let you know that's not how guns work irl friend ;^)"

We know, gaylord.

polish dev init

You niggers are literally retarded. The whole fucking point of the game is to use parkour to avoid the sea of zombies. Later on you acquire unlimited use parkour moves that knock them back like the jumping kick or the head slam which instantly kills zombies Weapons are a last resort.

calm down. it's not worth it to get so angry, your mom will take your computer away

I'm not angry. You're just a turbofag.

you sound pretty angry boi. you won't get your good boy points from mommy today, so take a chill pill

Nah, I'm not angry. In fact, watch this.

so angry you forgot to post something for me to watch. you gotta take a step back and breath buddy, your heart can't take this

>Dying light
>Realistic
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHH

Who are you quoting?

Map too big, emphasize too much on buggy, still the night time buggy ride us very dangerous since the volatile will latch on it and smack you.

Jade is my my cute waifu lad. Shame what happened to her.

I've been doing side missions all day. Finally have some decent weapons. Tomorrow I'm gonna finish the story.

Well that was the point of the Following

>that fucking mission where you gotta run back to base at night for the first time

Is this game's multiplayer worth buying it for? Hard times ahead and I don't have much cash.

punk qt in the DLC is better desu

>>Haha you get a silencer but you need SUBSONIC SPECIAL AMMO DUDE LMAO
>silencer

Fucking nogunz faggot.

any awesome mods for this awesome game or is it just small fixes like more durability ? story was kinda meh for me.

game needs the call of Chernobyl treatment where you just roam around or something

Ill never not be angry about the removal of the analog combat system option and have lost all faith in techland. parkour and close space exploration was good tho

>analog combat system option
What? You mean like that one Jet Lee game?

>slap a bunch of useless shit on a knife so it hits better
I really hate zombie game “””crafting”””

They made the beginning incredibly hard/tedious combat-wise to smarten people up for when they're laughably OP later game, it's proof that dev teams can quit and go do their own thing if they feel like publishers are smothering their creativity, and finally Techland is fiercely devoted to what they've created.

They've never stopped supporting the game, even when it's borderline unreasonable this late after release. It's got better humor and better drama than Dead Island (even if the story sucks we can agree that DI was shit), and it's just better quality. I know this seems like a shilly post, but Techland has subverted the usual route of dev teams getting destroyed while remaining true in the process. I actually, really admire them and their game. Can't wait for this Bad Blood thing they're coming out with, I hope it's more than a half-way PUBG clone. I like Dying Light.

Even if the writing is bad.

Unbelievable. Simply unbelievable. Everytime a Dying Light is made, this faggot shows up bitching about his fucking analog combat no one cares about.

thread*

Ignore the haters. DL's guns have never been "realistic," so using normal ammo for two guns that are laughably shit compared to the other available guns is perfectly reasonable. Would give a lot more reason to use these rinky dink pea shooters.

yeah, they come out for EVERYTHING. wish they only reacted to gunshots and explosions, but every firecracker, car alarm, or breath taken sets them off. it's really bothersome at the beginning, but later they're just flies to swat at.

are there people who chose not to activate the nuke?

Analog? You mean like hold click and move the mouse to control swing direction? It's a nice thought, but it would've slowed combat down, since you'd be unable to swivel or change targets without a jerk from ending the swing mode. It would've been cool, but precision doesn't matter too much when loosing an arm doesn't stop them

there are

I wanted to fight the mother, had a feeling it would've been less climactic otherwise - I was right

Just think, there are people who actually think Dead Island is better.

It's not. It's extremely mediocre

Dead Island has it's place. Specifically as a co-op game to play with friends for a couple hours then never again.

At least Dead Island laid the foundation for this game mate. Be thankful for that.

The name's Kyle Crane.

well thanks for playing the beta :)

I started this game and played for an hour and thought to myself I could just be playing killing floor right now.
Does it get fun?

>playing killing floor
shit taste.

You're not mentally developed enough to enjoy Dying Light. .
