Dead Island - Games - Facepunch Forum

According to the Destructoid review there's an upcoming DLC about vampires... Or maybe everyone already knew that and I'm just late

One thing that I'm really, really happy about is that all the reviews confirm the game can take anywhere from 25-40 hours. Been a very long time indeed since I've played a big release of that length.

[QUOTE=EliteGuy;32126346]There's 15 reviews up on metacritic, 75 is the average.[/QUOTE] 75 is good enough for me

[url]http://www.ultimatumgamekeys.com/[/url] Just said that their keys are region locked that they have right now... They are getting more today, but they said if those are region locked that we would have to use a vpn or get a refund :(

GMG is still cheaper and more reliable.

[QUOTE=Cam00;32126486]Anyone know when the ultimatum keys will be sent?[/QUOTE] They said in 5-10 hours but they might be region locked, so I dunno. They said if its locked they will have to wait for the UK released date which is like in 3 days I guess :(

[QUOTE=Impulse101;32126432]75 is good enough for me[/QUOTE] Managed to enjoy games with total metacritic score <50, granted they were games with an acquired taste. I think Metacritic is still good enough to get an idea what to expect out of a game especially ones that people are more common with and not obscure. Still, videos is where I make most of my decisions, if it looks fun and think I might enjoy it, I'll buy it disregarding any reviews. Not many games I've been unhappy about purchasing this way. Unsure why people are using ugk, gmg was £1 more expensive for myself, got my key already, preloaded and waiting and will be getting dlc when released unlike ugk.

I might just get my money back and call it a day if it is region locked :/

[QUOTE=Meller Yeller;32126408]According to the Destructoid review there's an upcoming DLC about vampires... Or maybe everyone already knew that and I'm just late[/QUOTE] That's for another game.

[QUOTE=Riutet;32126591]That's for another game.[/QUOTE] Maybe I misheard

Vampires would not fit into dead island. Borderlands styled expansionpacks would fit beautifully into this game! New lvl limit, new enemys new quests, further story (or sidestory) new weapons and whatever else was added, but not vampires :v:!

bet they could get away with secret underground lab dlc - resident evil

[QUOTE=Skellyhell;32125421]This game will unlock in approximately 3 days and 12 hours Steam UK is cool.[/QUOTE] I live in Europe too so the release day is here 9th of september, of course I'd like to play tomorrow with US. here are steps how to do it (this worked with Deux Ex and other games too, so it should work with this too). [B]1.[/B] shut down Steam [B]2.[/B] Get yourself US vpn. [B]2.A[/B] I will be using [url]http://www.freeusvpn.com/[/url] because it is free, but I am not sure if its fully reliable. I have tried it few times with nothing to worry about, but I am not responsible of the problems you might encourage. [B]2.B[/B] Here is another free one which my friend has used a lot but I don't have personal history with it [url]http://usaip.eu/en/free_vpn.php[/url] . Download: [url]http://usaip.eu/en/USAIP.pbk[/url] and run it, select "[URL="http://aijaa.com/v.php?i=004548555968.jpg"]USAIP PPTP California[/URL]". Account/password: demo [B]3.[/B] you should now be connected to internet via that VPN. Your firewall might ask you about the network. Select whatever you find most suitable. [B]4.[/B] Start steam and Launch Dead Island. Let it install all the necessary files etc. [B]5.[/B] Close the game and close Steam [B]6.[/B] Turn off the VPN connection. [B]7.[/B] Go to the "Steam\steamapps\common\Dead Island" -folder [B]8.[/B] Create a text file in the Dead Island directory called "steam_appid.txt" and put 91319 inside it. Save the file. [B]9.[/B] Start steam and laucnh your game from Dead Island directory So this won't work yet but it will when they release the game in the US. So this tutorial is suitable for non-US players who want to play the game earlier. I will be trying this in 15 hours when DI is released. I will post it here if I got it working.

I hope that I will be able to activate the DLC from the AT version in Germany without vpn the first few days on the xbox360... I mean if it's avaible on steam in germany then it should be able on microsoft because if not then they can go and fuck themselves, it's the same thing.

It sucks that it comes out the midnight when I have classes until 6pm the next day. I can already tell that I'm going to regret my decision hard.

Got college tommorow, but only in the afternoon....so immah play all night.

I only had classes 3 days a week but it was so tiring.

[QUOTE=ryfry99;32128030]reposting for new page. sorry but I'm always nervous about buying new games for my PC[/QUOTE] You'll probably chug a bit due to your processor but you'll run it just fine, as long as you aren't running on a very high res or something.

[QUOTE=ryfry99;32128030]reposting for new page. sorry but I'm always nervous about buying new games for my PC[/QUOTE] I'm the same but I ain't sure about it running for you, but I know it is better then mine. Anyway can my PC also run this? If not, horray for a 360. ATI Radeon HD 5450 Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU E5400 @ 2.70GHz 2.70 GHz Ram 2.00 GB System type 32-bit Operating system.
