Can anyone tell me how to tweak durability and if it's bannable or not?
You can run, but if you're being chased by infected, you might as well fight the fuckers. The one thing that pissed me off the MOST was having a random infected spawn on top of me and 1 shot me. The "bosses" are pathetic. For me at least, I can 1 shot the Ram and Butcher, Bloaters you just slap them 'til they die and then the thugs are killed in 2 hits. The end game boss, died in 2 hits from me. That's what pissed me off, having "boss" mobs that are actually as easy if not easier to kill than normal zeds. Meh. I'm assuming tweaking it is bannable, I'm not sure. Really want to know about this to.

[QUOTE=FuriCooly;32733935]In the beginning, as Xian, the sharp weapons, knives, degrade into worthlessness after about 6-9 hits. Machetes last a bit and so do Zed's Demise. But I still feel that it degrades rather quickly. I feel it a lot when I have to pay for upgrades/repairs late game. I don't recall side quests giving you a significant cash reward, but maybe that's just me. I do want to play more so I can get to lvl 50 and grab my Zed's Demise. I really miss duping :\[/QUOTE] I started a Xian game and yeah everything breaks at the beginning but I made up for it by stuffing my inventory with all the random sharp weapons I could find I'm near the end now though and doing retardedly large amounts of damage
So when will I finally get a proper rifle or something. I'm getting sick of these pistols and revolvers.

my friend tried to gift this to me, never came through. he resent it a few times, even bought it again. still no luck. Fucking fuck steam.
Even though Xian suffers early game from shitty weapon durability, late game, she dominates so hard. So glad I picked Xian. Trying to lvl my way to 50 so I can use Zed's Demise.

God dammit I don't want mother fucking rifles.
[QUOTE=Dog;32735598]God dammit I don't want mother fucking rifles.[/QUOTE] By the time you get a real rifle to shoot with your melee weapons will do a ton of more damage and by that point you're probably going to be engaged in a lot of close combat situations, running out of ammo a lot
2 lvls from being lvl 50. Once I get my lvl 50 ZD I think I'm going Deathstalker on it >:O. Then I'll replay and rush and get another ZD. Then another. Then I'll ask myself, after the 100th ZD, "Why? Why!?"
Anyone? I want to see if it works today, cause its Wednesday for me. [QUOTE=Xonax;32725661]So I am going to get (hopefully) Dead island this thursday, but I got some questions, How would I test it to see if it works on my system before buying it? Because I need to know if I am getting it on Steam or 360. And uh, well thats all I remember for questions.[/QUOTE]

Seriously. It's not hard to look up requirements and compare them. But to answer your question, you might only be able to run it med-high since you are below the recommended requirements for RAM. If you can, I suggest getting Windows 7 64-bit and buying at least 4 or 6 Gigs of RAM.

Not to mention, it's hard to figure which nVidia card is equal to which AMD card in terms of performance, because their naming schemes are so off. Anyway, I'm on an AMD Athlon II 630 quad core at 2.8GHz, ATI Radeon HD4850, with 4 gigs of DDR3 RAM at 1333MHz, and I still only get a constant 60+ frames when I have most everything set to low. Granted, I'm at 1920x1080, but hey.

Whatever.
[QUOTE=FuriCooly;32738863]Hmm, if you really want to mod the game then I suggest you go to [url]http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2106453[/url] It has a "More ammo capacity & slower weapon degrade" mod. Edit- I'm not sure if it's bannable or not, so yeah. Just found it and I'm reading through it to looky at tall the mods. Edit Numbah2- After reading a bit, you'll see a "Vac Ban Warning" that says stuff, so I suggest reading it.

But it's your decision :3[/QUOTE] Valve has confirmed you cannot be VAC banned. Stop fearmongering.
I posted those links for a reason. Not fearmongering, but there still could be a chance that VAC would ban him.
[QUOTE=FuriCooly;32739094]I posted those links for a reason. Not fearmongering, but there still could be a chance that VAC would ban him.[/QUOTE]No, if the official Steam Support twitter says "you can't be VAC banned," then there isn't a chance. I don't think you know how VAC works.
Pretty sure VAC hasn't been enforcing anything but removing people who use trainers, aimbots, etc.

Because first of all VAC doesn't work that way, second it's really not up to Valve to decide what constitutes cheating in Deep Silver's game. [editline]11th October 2011[/editline] Unless you mean external programs, in which case VAC bans automatically just like always.

[QUOTE=Protocol7;32747035]trainers and aimbots are external programs.[/QUOTE]OK, I thought you were referring to mods that act like trainers/aimbots (one-hit kills, infinite health/money/stamina, etc).
Play 103 minutes of Dead Island, abit of lag here and there, but it isn't to bad, its fun eitherway.
