[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;30036691]You'd be surprised as to what you can make explosives out of.[/QUOTE]
This, really.
I know what you can make explosives of, half the people on FP are pyromaniacs, including me, I've made several explosives out of practical items, but they don't seem very fitting on an island but then again, it is an island with a city, and a hotel resort, so I can't really say that. The video said it was C4. Not homemade explosive.

And the game said homemade explosive.
[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;30036759]And the game said homemade explosive.[/QUOTE]
I'd believe the developer over the game. He said IN THE VIDEO, it was C4.

I figure if the game itself says it's home made explosive, it's a home made explosive in the game. For all I know the Dev just decided to use C4 as a quick word for it.
Yeah, C4 is generally a common term for explosives (though I know it's not, that's just what it's used for) and a lot easier to say than "homemade explosive"
It's also ridiculous how some people are nitpicking about commentary on an early gameplay video. Do I really need to explain what's fucking stupid about that?
Guys, I think most of those numbers were damage floaters, not XP messages. You know, like in Borderlands. I still hope they can be turned off though.
Fresh gameplay video (11:50)

The gameplay video shows both damage and exp numbers.
Though I'm hoping too that they can be turned off..
Still, looks fun
Starting to get to the point of 'Cant wait' :3: I keep watching the gameplay vids over and over. Looks niiice
Even if they were holding the PC release back it could only mean good things.

Like not caring enough about PC to get it ported and released concurrently?

Ported? I thought it was being ported to the consoles?
[editline]25th May 2011[/editline]
Or at least equal focus across all platforms?
This game is looking sexy
[QUOTE=Eeshton;30036452]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?[/QUOTE]
Don't see anything wrong with fancy weapons like an electrified knife.
Awesomeness and fun > Realism
[QUOTE=Craig Willmore;30024606]If you followed the development at all, you'd see that they did a complete 180 from what it was a few years ago.
That's why I'm disappointed and probably won't be buying it, it's not the type of game that was shown previously.
Changing some "skins" and "polishing some animations" isn't going to change the gameplay or mechanics.
It was average at best.
Again, another game that started out as a PC exclusive, that was touted as being a technological power-house with free-roam, different endings, and many other interesting features that were completely axed possibly for the worse.[/QUOTE]
They obviously knew that PC gamers are too stuck up to enjoy a good story :smug:

Fable 3 didn't have any good done for it when it was held back.
[QUOTE=Penis Colada;30016112]This game looks like 'go out and kill zombies LOL XD' and not 'survive against hordes of zombies and fear for your life and oh god this is scary I'm gonna die'[/QUOTE]
If only the atmosphere of Stalker would be in this.
Another strong fact that keeps me off from this game is where it's at - Tropical island.
no thank you.
[editline]26th May 2011[/editline]
The only movie about zombies on a tropical island was some parodical shit which wasn't even good, that's why I'm disappoint.
Wasn't Dead Island the game showing the really really indepth body damage system? Like it goes through the flesh into skeletal structure for super realistic damage?
To me it looks worse than Soldier of Fortune when it comes to the damage model. Like 'Hey I hit you with a baseball bat, oh look your whole arm fell off'.
Bit confused.
Fuck realism, they're god damned zombies for Christ sake. So please be quiet and enjoy throwing fucking baseball bats at propane tanks.

Doubt that, Techland is a Polish company (PC Gaming is more prominent in Eastern/Western Europe, especially Eastern) with a track record of either releasing games on all platforms at the same time, or releasing on PC first and then porting to console later, I think it's likely gonna be another simultaneous release.

Yeah fuck realism! Who cares about smelly old realism, I wanna be able to fly too, and shoot lasers out of my hands, and pick up cars with a single hand, it should all be possible because zombies, Science Fiction, what does that mean?
I thought this was an American game, until I saw footage of driving.
I said to myself, "Woah, how are they driving from the passenger side?"
get rid of the stupid hud or make it extremely minimalistic (including the dumb health and level indicators over zombies' heads)
exchange xp for amount of kills of x zombie type, or at least remove the xp notification
fix the gun animations
day/night and weather cycle PLEASE
barricade system
THAT'S ALL I EVER WANTED IN A ZOMBIE GAME WHY CAN'T IT EXIST

such a retarded point
"ARMA 2? fuck that shit that war doesn't even exist, game is unrealistic as fuck"
does anyone know of any FPSes that actually let you barricade and play against zombie bots? I'm fine with mods
I was talking about the game having unrealistic weapons etc.
It's more fun to use a electric machete and throw c4 cover knifes (tough I don't think it was C4) then run around with some kitchen knife you quickly grabbed because of it being hard to find weapons, because tourist resorts usually don't have them.
Also, they were playing trough like half the video without a hud so I don't see a reason why you wouldn't be able to remove/disable it (and damage and Xp notifications didn't show either when the hud was gone).

well I'm hoping like crazy that they'll include modding tools or the game will be moddable by third party means
but I think what a whole bunch of people are wanting is exactly what you just described, something real, dark, and scary

Full realism isn't fun. Having mostly realistic or for a better word CREDIBILE features is better than trying to simulate.
I'd rather see them ditch the experience for kills system altogether and just give you rewards for doing the objectives, would rather see a zombie and think, "Oh fuck a zombie" rather than "Oh sweet, +20 exp".
