[QUOTE=Take_Opal;32050928]That says nothing about it being able to pre-order on Friday.[/QUOTE] Just go to the checkout and put in the coupon and see if it registers. Derp.

[QUOTE=Alyx Zark;32051296]Just go to the checkout and put in the coupon and see if it registers. Derp.[/QUOTE] Dude, is it Friday yet? Are you really being this retarded? [editline]31st August 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Nohj;32051051]You can turn that off.[/QUOTE] Yeah, that is true.

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;32051361]Dude, is it Friday yet? Are you really being this retarded? [editline]31st August 2011[/editline] Yeah, that is true.[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure you can still use the discount code to see if it gives you the discount without actually buying it.

Yeah, but I'm asking if it'll be too late on Friday to pre-order the game. Telling me to check on Friday isn't helpful

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;32051397]Yeah, but I'm asking if it'll be too late on Friday to pre-order the game. Telling me to check on Friday isn't helpful[/QUOTE] The brains coupon is part of a promotion leading up to the release of the game. The coupon is in effect until the game is released. It's not rocket science.

[QUOTE=Stinkyarmpit;32039697]New trailer and they coming! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGnALtczXxA[/media][/QUOTE] oh god yes, I need this game now Also I feel like the only person who doesn't care how misleading the CGI trailer was. I'm positive that this will turn out to be a great game nonetheless, and even if it has it's problems it will no doubt be fun with friends.

[QUOTE=Alyx Zark;32051468]The brains coupon is part of a promotion leading up to the release of the game. The coupon is in effect until the game is released. It's not rocket science.[/QUOTE] My only knowledge of the coupon is from that post 8 hours ago which from my knowledge was just a random offer. But if you told me that from the start, this would've been a lot more pleasant

Somewhat impulse bought this. Hoping to get my monies worth.

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;32051397]Yeah, but I'm asking if it'll be too late on Friday to pre-order the game. Telling me to check on Friday isn't helpful[/QUOTE] I never told you to check on friday, the point of my post was that you can check on any fucking day you want, not just friday. Is that so hard to grasp?

[QUOTE=Tea Guy;32052051]I never told you to check on friday, the point of my post was that you can check on any fucking day you want, not just friday. Is that so hard to grasp?[/QUOTE] Not knowing that it was a coupon that lasts until release makes your post entirely useless. No need to be an ass hole.

[QUOTE=Pinut;32051675]Somewhat impulse bought this. Hoping to get my monies worth.[/QUOTE] Same here. Haven't been following the hype though besides the trailers so my expectations aren't that high. Too high= disappointment.

[QUOTE=Someone4956;32046963]You know what you do? You go beat the shit out of him and tell him to give you your money back. Or if you wanna be a dick, call the cops and tell him he robbed you.[/QUOTE] My parents always think I'm overreacting when I say someone took my money if I lost some, so they wouldn't be too happy but maybe I could ninja into his room at night and take the money back

[QUOTE=tehMuffinMan;32052383]My parents always think I'm overreacting when I say someone took my money if I lost some, so they wouldn't be too happy but maybe I could ninja into his room at night and take the money back[/QUOTE] You should find a good place to hide your money to make sure you can buy the game. Also, can't wait, only 5 more days for me.

[QUOTE=tehMuffinMan;32052383]My parents always think I'm overreacting when I say someone took my money if I lost some, so they wouldn't be too happy but maybe I could ninja into his room at night and take the money back[/QUOTE] Or just beat the shit out him for stealing from you. Or tell your parents.

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;32050522]Do you think it'd be too late to pre-order from GMG on Friday with EATIN-BRAIN-ZZZZZ for $36?[/QUOTE] It's supposed to last until release. At least I hope so I was planning on preordering Saturday.

Im going to be the chinese chick. Going to say this when im attacking zombies. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ-G44BNHNY[/media] 1:03

Is it just me or is the voice acting just really bad?

There's a lot bad with this game. [editline]31st August 2011[/editline] --unfortunately.

Are you seriously complaining about the CGI trailer not being enough like the game? How many games show gameplay in the CGI trailer? None. Its CGI for a reason.

[QUOTE=Nohj;32053543]Are you seriously complaining about the CGI trailer not being enough like the game? How many games show gameplay in the CGI trailer? None. Its CGI for a reason.[/QUOTE] Usually teasers and trailers give you an idea of what the game is about. The first teaser looked like a deep horror game. Then we saw things that made it more like Dead Rising. Then we saw gameplay that destroyed the thought that it was a deep horror game. Now there's a trailer showing "A DEEP HORROR EXPERIENCE - REVIEW MAGAZINE" and gameplay that looks nothing like a deep horror experience.

So many people are acting like they've played this game and act like they know what they're talking about. Cases in point... [QUOTE=Take_Opal;32053479]There's a lot bad with this game. [editline]31st August 2011[/editline] --unfortunately.[/QUOTE] Such as? [QUOTE=AngryChairR;32043129]This could have been great, amazing in fact. But instead of making a deep story and eerie gameplay on the fantastic environment they've made, they settled for blasting fast zombies on the streets. I expected to be sneaking around in a smashed up town trying to scavenge some ammo from a security guard or something, not finding rocket launchers and shotguns and making a mess of everything. Disappoint.[/QUOTE] 1) How can you know anything about the story depth considering nothing has been released other than how the game starts? 2) I'm sure gameplay will be eerie at times what with how the game's atmospherics look immersive, but we'll have to see, neither of us know. 3) You most likely still can sneak past zombies considering it's going to be an open world game. 4) What rocket launchers? [QUOTE=A B.A. Survivor;32053458]Is it just me or is the voice acting just really bad?[/QUOTE] Everyone just sounds like regular people minus the rapper who sounds hilariously stereotypical, although granted there is no emotion in anything on what I've heard so far. And about the CGI trailer, I don't get why so many people took it seriously, it's just a "realistic" in the scenes flash of a family of survivors. It's not meant to reflect the game or gameplay at all, I thought this was common sense. Not once in my life have I ever seen so many people lash out at a game pre-release before. Seriously, I don't get it. Just because it's not going to be a MEGA REALISTIC ZOMBIE SIMULATOR doesn't mean it's going to be bad. Until anyone plays it, I can't take any of these posts seriously. So, can we all stop acting like we're clairvoyant now, please?

CGI trailers get you interested in the game. Gameplay trailers show you gameplay. Whoever thinks that CGI shows you gameplay is an idiot. [editline]31st August 2011[/editline] So Im fairly sure that this whole thing is a cults doing. I mean, one of the singers names is Sam B and sings about zombies. Either really bad irony or its foreshadowing.

Sorry for making logical assumptions based on evidence.

I really want it to be fun, but this Let's Play is making it look pretty bad.

The shooting is shitty and seems to be the focus despite what you want to think.

you have yet to give any proof of why you think its going to be bad. [editline]31st August 2011[/editline] Watching that Lets Play, the voice acting seems fine.

He's said that from everything the company has allowed us to see and allowed us to base our purchase off looks nothing like how they originally pitched the idea and something that he is not interested in.

[QUOTE=A B.A. Survivor;32053691]Sorry for making logical assumptions based on evidence.[/QUOTE] If you had actually read my post, you'd have noticed I was agreeing with you.

Looks just like L4D to me.

[QUOTE=Yotrig;32053731]If you had actually read my post, you'd have noticed I was agreeing with you.[/QUOTE] I was actually responding to Nohj.

[/QUOTE] 1) They've let details go in interviews, not only do you find the cause of the infection but apparrently there are hostile humans on the island. 2) Gameplay has shown eerie gameplay in sewers/dark places, and they've said in interviews you will be exploring dark places some times. 3) In gameplay it seems like you could pass by zombies unless you alert them somehow, so you're probably right. Plus one of the characters is specialized in "assassination" [editline]1st September 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Take_Opal;32053766]So, you asked my what is bad about this game. I gave you my opinion and you said "That's your opinion.". What are you trying to achieve?[/QUOTE] Agreed, he's looking to hard into things imo.
