Dead Island Message Board  

what are your thoughts, for those who has already played it

Cool, First vote! Umm... I quite like it, weapon degrade is a bit crazy fast, other than that pretty good.

Its moderate, fun especially with multiplayer. But it has issues that the developers seemed to ignore to make its debut release date. Hell some debug functionality is still in the game that they forgot to take out.

but i read some reviews that said there's alot of glaring flaws such as zombies having unfair advantages and weird spawning systems like spawning in the middle of the horde where you just died. any comments?

Honestly, it's fun. Is it better than any other zombie game? Yea....but that's just the problem and the question: whether or not this lack of zombie games makes even a mediocre title stand out into great standing. In terms of a game, this title lacked in quite a lot: combat, action aside from cutscenes, and RPG choices. There are no hard choices and the only freedom is choosing to decline missions.

Sadly it's not like Fallout with zombies. It's like Left 4 Dead 2 with a storyline.

I gave it a 4.

I'm gonna wait until the steam version isn't a Dev build for Xbox. Based on the limited play I've gotten from it though.... I'd give it a 6. Can't see myself going above 8, even if it runs perfectly.

I gave it a seven.

I actually like it quite a lot but releasing with stuff like noclip active loses points in my book, that's something they should never have overlooked.

i like it alot, shame L4D didnt have some of these aspects.

Definately needs some patch work though, seems there may be a memory leak as well.
