My hopes are really high for this, I dont want it crushed and what it sounds like there is going to be something wrong
[QUOTE=Tea Guy;28426079]Why do you guys care about the CGI trailer so much, as they have already said it was meant to represent the serious tone to the game and send a message that no one is safe in a zombie apocalypse. You have all the wrong reasons to be disappointed in this game.[/QUOTE]
You can throw a serious tone onto any game, if it's not consistent with the way the game plays, it will come across as silly.
I like how you guys are arguing about opinions on a game not released.
Tea Guy thinks its gonna be serious and nothing like Dead Rising.
Riutet thinks its gonna be more like Dead Rising.
I plan to still try it, but don't have high hopes.
I'm just basing my opinion off of common sense and factual details that logically say the game will play in no way like Dead Rising. Riutet is basing his off of hunches and slight similarities.
I won't argue about it anymore, but the game wont be as ridiculously fast-paced or retarded as Dead Rising, that's for sure.
[quote=Riutet]Oh, so when a site says something GOOD about Dead Island that supports your view point, it's a FACT. But when a site says something that doesn't support the view you want to push, it's an OPINION, I see how it is.[/quote]
All IGN is doing is bitching about how it wasn't like the trailer. Like I said, the trailer wasn't meant to represent the core gameplay and features, it was meant to send a message. Anyone who thinks Dead Island will be a terrible game just because it wasn't like the CGI trailer has all the wrong reasons to hate the game.
I'm just basing my view off of reasoning and factual details that logically say the game will play like Dead Rising. Tea Guy is basing his off of ignorance and preconceptions.
I won't argue about it anymore, but the game might be as ridiculously fast-paced and retarded as Dead Rising, it's a possibility.

First you said that Dead Island is going to be a serious game with proper survival mechanics, now you're saying it's not?
Dude, make up your mind geeze.
I don't have time to argue with you if all you're gonna do is change your argument every time it's refuted, I'm gonna head to bed.

Now you're obviously trolling. Unable to come up with a logical response? I'll just copy the opposing post and reword it to fit my opinion, look at me I'm so smart.

No where in that sentence did I say anything about it not having a big emphasis on seriousness and survival mechanics.

The only logical response is to stop replying logically, because I've been doing that for the past hour, and it doesn't seem to be getting through to you.

The trailer suggests a serious tone and a struggle for survival.
You say that the trailer is unrepresentative of the core elements and mechanics of the game.
Thus, you are saying the game will not have a serious tone or survival mechanics.

Obviously not because they already stated what the CGI trailer was meant to be. You will have to wait for some actual gameplay videos to pull that card, friend.

You have been proven wrong at every point, there are multiple articles stating that this game is nothing like Dead Rising 2, and that it is heavily realism centered. Whats your problem? If you don't have anything to say besides "dis gaem is gona suck i kalled it lololo ur all dumb and cant see the truth" than just leave the thread.

Also, IGN is IGN, the same people who said that DNF can't beat COD and Halo3 because it doesn't have ironsights and "massive setpieces" which was said as Duke was in a huge railgun firing shots at alien spacecrafts coming out of a mothership.
Just popping in randomly to say after reading the interview about how it's "Just another zombie game" I'm deeply let down. I guess having a good story driven zombie game IS to much to ask for.

Which interview. I've read several articles and interviews saying how it is ANYTHING but "another zombie game"

Same can be said for any First Person Shooter, Third Person Shooter, RPG, Sandbox, Fantasy, Survival Horror.
Just because it is another zombie game doesn't make it bad, you guys are too quick to judge. At least wait until there are gameplay videos before explaining how much you dislike the game.

[quote]In Dead Island, you pick up a lead pipe, hit a zombie in the face a few times before getting tired and then retreat because there are too many zombies to fight at once.[/quote]
10 bux says you can just run past all the zombies without having to engage them except for the odd rescue/escort/defense mission where you're forced to fight some zombies, just like in Dead Rising.
[/QUOTE]
Yeah, real logical.
Zombies aren't going to be slow to grapple or react like they are on DR and there are runners to stop you from sprinting past them all. You're being illogical because you're to busy trying to relate it to Dead Rising. Just stop.
I just hope the fov isn't set to 45
I feel this is going to be a huge letdown.
[QUOTE=Trounark;28427748]I feel this is going to be a huge letdown.[/QUOTE]
I doubt it. Everything I have heard so far about the game is everything that I would want in a First Person Zombie Survival Horror RPG.
[QUOTE=joeboe242;28427695]I just hope the fov isn't set to 45[/QUOTE]
I would imagine it would have to be pretty wide so that you could see the weapon doing damage properly etc.
[QUOTE=JCDentonUNATCO;28427133]Which interview. I've read several articles and interviews saying how it is ANYTHING but "another zombie game"[/QUOTE]
One on Kotaku "It is a zombie action slasher," he said. "This is a game where you will be killing zombies up close."
I already have that in Left4Dead where I use melee items and get swarmed and fight through zombies, I already have that in Dead Rising 2 where I can go at my own pace for the most part and choose what I do with all the melee items I make, I can do that in black ops even where despite having a gun I'm still up close and running for survival.
"It's a zombie action slasher" is a real real bad way to sell your game as it's saying "You've already done this before"

Wow you seem to be really dumb man, how did you get any of that out of what's been said about it? That's not what the game is like at all, and you must not play any game ever because every game has "been done" before in some aspect.

No I haven't, we're both getting our information from the same sources, some sources corroborate my view, some yours. I'm trying to be objective by taking everything in, trying to figure out what's just buzztalk and what is actually a serious claim. Did it with Borderlands, I was fairly right about how it would turn out to my disappointment, did it with APB, same again, doing it now, I hope I'm wrong this time.
[quote]there are multiple articles stating that this game is nothing like Dead Rising 2, and that it is heavily realism centered.[/quote]
And yet there are some articles that are saying the opposite, and you're just brushing them aside because you don't agree with them. Hell, even the articles that do somewhat agree with you also harbour evidence backing up the side I'm taking for this argument.

I'm not saying it's going to be bad, I've said multiple times that it'll probably be fun. I'm claiming that it's not going to be what people are claiming it's going to be. Remember Mafia 2? I remember Mafia 2.

Isn't that Ignorant itself?
I am bit worried by these "action-slasher" bits. IMO it should be like the very first episodes of The Walking Dead. Of course I don't mind few runners, but I don't want L4D2 melee only. (Yes, I know there will be guns)
[QUOTE=Hellborg 45;28434705]Nobody wants you here.[/QUOTE]

Damn guys, saw this thread had 58 new posts, hoping for more information, saw an internet fight. Grow the fuck up!
I think I'm going to blindly defend a game that has no footage released outside a trailer that has nothing to do with the actual characters in the game!!!! I'll blindly follow everything!!!
Grow the fuck up holy shit. Just because someone says they don't have that high hopes after a rather bad interview doesn't mean go apeshit.
Everyone stop crying.
If it is really just Dead Rising, on an island, with a little more seriousness. I will be greatly saddened.
I hope this will be the "realistic" zombie game that shows that gravity in the scenario with great survival RPG aspects.
But it sounds like it is not going to be.
