Dying Light

[Ldecharmoy]

I am amazed no one has talked about this yet. Been watching my friend play it and it is beyond nuts. Everything about the game is intense and it is not easy at all...

I was thinking about making a post about it. Game looks fucking crazy. I've watched the "in game reviews" and have heard nothing but good things besides the controls.

I heave heard that is is basically dead island (which I hated). Any truth to this?

It has a mixture of many games... dead island is one of them, but not the same in any bad terms, if that makes since. Watch the game play videos on youtube. I didn't like dead island that much, this game is wicked and I love it.

Do want.

This game is beyond crazy!!! I finally got my own copy this weekend and one of the first missions makes you go out at night. THAT MADE ME ALMOST SHIT MYSELF!!!!
CO-OP is pretty awesome being that you can do everything that you can on single player, and it helps when you have someone that can help you smash zombie's heads in.... I still am trying to get use to the whole parkour stuff and I can tell you that knowing how to jump at the right time, in the right places, will help when it gets dark. You do not want to be out in the dark.....

I'm about 6 hours into it. It's pretty awesome. Night time is scary, you have a flashlight(and a UV flashlight) but you can't really use it because it draws zombies to you. I can't speak for other zombie games, I haven't played many, but this one is really difficult. You can't just run around killing zombies, they're tough. Even the slow stupid ones are hard to kill. It's NOT a gun game. You do get guns later in the game, but they're awkward and more than anything LOUD. The parkour takes a couple hours to get used to, but once you get it down it's fun as hell. Fighting other humans is hard too. If you see a group of 3 bad guys standing around and want to just run in and start a fight, you will die. Hand to hand combat is fun and more tactical than just button mashing.

Pick it up if you haven't, it's awesome.

Just picked it up. I'll be checking it out later tonight!

This game is incredibly fun if you like to scavenge and explore. I've been having a great time playing it.

[Steve@CJPP]

it's really great with a group of friends. You can play for hours and get lost in it. Drops, Drops, Drops, if you can grab them do it the more you get the faster your Survival ranking goes up.

Its made by techland, the same company. So you're going to see some similarities. Imo it was a lot better than D.I

If I knew how buggy it was going to be though, I definitely would have waited a year before playing through it. Get all those good patches in first.

I just bought it over at Greenmangaming for $43.

I pirated it, liked it enough, but not $60 enough.

There are some other new games for cheaper too:

I gave it the shadowplay treatment last night. Really loving this game. And it's not a short one.

[Craizie]

Is there an end goal to this game other than survive?

[CexMashean]

Not sure what you're asking. It's quest based, just like dead island.
