Dead Island - Games - Facepunch Forum

[QUOTE=Schmoe222;28112438]Sure.[/QUOTE] Done. [editline]17th February 2011[/editline] Does anyone want to come up with a title for the thread? Right now it's Just Dead Island. Should I switch the icon to something other than Games? It's up to you guys to come up with it.

There is no standard gameplay for 'zombie games'. Putting zombies in doesn't automatically mean the gameplay will be shit, they are just a device and don't dictate the quality of the game.

[QUOTE=redBadger;28112637]Titles are dumb. Keep it clean.[/QUOTE] That's what I thought when I made the thread. I just wanted to make sure that it's okay with everyone.

Hey guys the website just went up.

[QUOTE=redBadger;28112566]I don't think I've ever seen a zombie game on an island before, which in my book seems innovative already.[/QUOTE] And the best part is that it will not only be [B]survival[/B] horror but also: no guns (or rather, few with minimal ammo) that you can just blast them away with ease. I have fallen in love with this game :3:

[QUOTE=Thechuz1337;28112730]Hey guys the website just went up.[/QUOTE] It went up earlier today.

Please be easy to mod, please be easy to mod. Or atleast being able to mod.

Really looking forward to this, I hope it doesnt dissapoint me like many games nowadays.

I added a new video to the OP. I highly recommend that you watch it. It's really funny. [editline]17th February 2011[/editline] I added yet another new video. It's an interview with one of the developers and it includes some gameplay. However, it's from 2007. The footage looks mediocre but I imagine they've fixed a lot of it in the past 3-4 years.

I remember when i first saw the trailers from 2007. I hated the fact that i had to wait until 2008 to play it. It's 2011 now and i still didn't play it. It better not be delayed to 2012.

I'm getting excited like I got excited when l4d was announced.

The game seems really interesting. Hoping it turns out to be close to World War Z in game form. Also, one of the best game-trailers I have ever seen. Way to few studios who make trailers like that. The only ones I can think of right now are Bungie with their Halo trailers.

My spelling is awful I know.

I added a summary of a Destructoid article to the OP. It had a few cool, new details.

I hope this is more like World War Z rather then Left 4 Dead, if you know what I mean. Like, one bite kills you, so running away is actually practical, only headshots kill, you need food, etc.

90$ says that Logan is the the guy from the trailer. Probably has like a natural resistance.

Like, one bite kills you, so running away is actually practical, only headshots kill, you need food, etc.[/QUOTE] I think it should be more than one bite until you're dead. I like the idea of headshots only and needing food, but if you went down after one bite, it'd be really annoying.

[QUOTE=codemaster85;28113696]90$ says that Logan is the the guy from the trailer. Probably has like a natural resistance.[/QUOTE] I think that's pretty obvious, considering that the silhouette looks exactly like the guy from the trailer.

[QUOTE=Scar;28113690]I hope this is more like World War Z rather then Left 4 Dead, if you know what I mean. Like, one bite kills you, so running away is actually practical, only headshots kill, you need food, etc.[/QUOTE] There are no/little guns, how can you headSHOT?

[QUOTE=johan_sm;28113760]There are no/little guns, how can you headSHOT?[/QUOTE] Well, bash a zombies head in. I understood what he meant.

I dont like the fact that its mainly melee, they make it sounds like there are almost no guns at all.

It doesn't seem too realistic that there are huge weapon stockpiles on a getaway island.

[QUOTE=CptVague;28112456]Boo hoo, someone is expressing an opinion contrary to mine! I'll buy the game if it's innovative, but you're blind if you don't think there has been a glut of zombie games in the past couple of years.[/QUOTE] If you don't like the game, why the fuck do you post here besides to troll?

[QUOTE=BloodYScar;28113925]I dont like the fact that its mainly melee, they make it sounds like there are almost no guns at all.[/QUOTE] They said that guns are rare. They also want to make it somewhat realistic and not have guns everywhere.

[QUOTE=Teh_Spork;28114040]They said that guns are rare. They also want to make it somewhat realistic and not have guns everywhere.[/QUOTE] Which makes sense, not everyone have guns. Except Texans.....

[QUOTE=usaokay;28114072]There are security/police forces on the island. Of course there might be a [b]small[/b] cache of shotguns and pistols.[/QUOTE] And there could only be so much ammo.

There are pistols and shotguns. There's even a few pictures from 2007 that show them off, but it is mostly going to be melee stuff I think. Think Condemned.

[QUOTE=Henry Townshend;28114256]There are pistols and shotguns. There's even a few pictures from 2007 that show them off, but it is mostly going to be melee stuff I think. Think Condemned.[/QUOTE] Pretty much this. You'll get guns every now and then but very unlikely that you'll get ammo.
