[QUOTE=Kowalski;30024638]I was following since the beginning... And looks better right now. The type of game that was shown previously? Huu, there was nothing, just 3-5 screens and a really short video.[/QUOTE]
Read and watch the 2006-2008 press on the subject, you'll see what I mean.
I don't get it why developpers always make Zombie games which intends to be fun, because Dead Rising was top. I would love to prefer a zombie survival game which would be dark and realistic and in a normal europeon or american city with suburbs or forests. Not something like a mall or tropical paradise.
It's a stereotype but still there has never been a game like that.

That's what I'm trying to say.
There's nothing wrong with an arcadey-zombie game, at all!
It's just that early on it had a grim-dark survival feeling and I guess they didn't like the concept or didn't think it would sell well on consoles so they axed it.
Actual gameplay, holy shit.

Not liking the way the XP pops up every hit, and the facial animations look pretty stiff.
Still is awesome.
I don't know what you guys are constantly bitching about, this looks fun as shit.

That may be so, but the way it's shaping up is contrary to what we expected. A deep, immersive zombie apocalypse game. Now it's looking a bit like Farcry 2, except with zombies instead of omniscient Africans.
They made the main character a rapper. A fucking rapper! Game's ruined...

There are 4 to choose from, if I recall correctly.
As long as you can disable the xp popping up I will buy this.

You kidding? Big Jamaican looking black guy running around cutting zombies to shit sounds badass to me.

I don't know why people seem to want this impossibly difficult game where you are mostly barricaded in rooms, where is the fun in that?

There's 4 characters to choose from. The rapper is just one of them, the asian hotel receptionist is another and I forgot the other 2 characters.

There wasn't much at all shown in the gameplay, there's a very good chance there will be an atmospheric scary experience at night, during rain, and when exploring dark buildings.

For some it is fun, just how others think otherwise. Personally I would be happy with Dead Island taking either direction: arcadeish or simulationish. It would be pretty awesome to barricade for half an hour, picking off some zombies and rationing your supplies. Kind of like STALKER for me when I'm trapped in a room with a bunch of enemies outside the window. It also would be cool to beat up zombies with a C4 knife running through the jungle.
Am I the only one that would like Dead Island if it was either Arcade or Simulation?

I don't understand. You want it to be either Arcade or Simulation? It's kind of like a mix of both.
I've never actually seen a game promise that guns will be scarce and then deliver on that promise. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the final 1-2 hours of this game are crazy set pieces with infinite amounts of AK-47's supplied.

No guns allowed on the island, but fucktons of explosives and other expensive deadly hardware all around. Guess TSA really fucked up that time, huh?
To be honest in a place like that it couldn't be that hard to find shit to make home made explosives with, if you have the know how.

They've got fucking C4 there!
I'm hoping for a "Hardcore" mode, with most of the HUD and the XP popup shit removed. Besides that, I'm liking what I see with this game.
[QUOTE=eatdembeanz;30035047]They've got fucking C4 there![/QUOTE]
I doubt the C4 will be lying around all over the place either.
[QUOTE=eatdembeanz;30035047]They've got fucking C4 there![/QUOTE]
Right now I'm just gonna hope they called it C4 for the hell of it and it's some kinda homemade explosive.

The weapon name say homemade explosive knife (or something like that).
[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;30036395]The weapon name say homemade explosive knife (or something like that).[/QUOTE]
Which isn't [I]that[/I] far fetched expect for how it would detonate, I guess.
They've just got to polish it guys, it's really early footage, and they've already got that.
Things I do want to see fixed
+ XP popups made smaller or remove
+ HUD made more original and less of it
+ AKs made more "realistic", more or less not like an all powerful gun if you had atleast 200 ammo
Pretty much it for me, and I know it's too late, but I would like it if they removed all that cartoony weapon creation shit, guns are scarce but C4s just fucking oversupplied
Also, electrified knife? What?

A timer or a fuse?

Timer would make sense, doubt it'll be in the game. And I didn't see your character pull out a lighter for the fuse on it in the trailer, then again I'm not looking for some boring barricade yourself in sim, so it's no big deal for me at least.
The HUD looks like Dead Rising to me.

how would they make an explosive? out of gasoline and other thing sure, but that's wasting don't you think

You'd be surprised as to what you can make explosives out of.
