Next game maybe we can be a necromancer and level up our magic spells and defeat the zombie hive mind. This was a good dyling light: hulk mode. But if we take other superhero archtypes what else can we get? Magic users, superspeed/gadget heavy, super strength, and maybe something stealthy.

>>721391169
I've just replayed 2 for a bit, and to compare it to The Beast
And yeah it gets mogged by the Beast, not debatable
The one thing that struck me in 2 was the confusing as fuck controller scheme
To kick, you need to press the block button and then the attack button
That's so unintuitive, when the first game and the beast have the kick be a dedicated button
Plus the kick in 2 is weak, enemies and ragdoll barely react to it
The atrocious world design, with crops growing out of fucking concrete and metal with no soil underneath, same for the rooftops trees, the ugly survivors shacks and structure out of wood
I could go on
It's just trash
>>
This games bretty gud. Soulful world design
>>
>>721391438
I played 2 when it came out and I just finished it out pure spite so I could say I played it and it was borderline unplayable trash. Beast actually feels good to play.
>>
>>721391984
2 is alot better than at launch thougheverbeit. That being said The Beast is a much better game with better bones to build off of with future content updates. Plus they could do a DLC for playable BEAST Aiden with his own skill tree. Then it would come full circle

I bought this game so I can think up new Zombie smut on Silly Tavern.

I like it when I smash the zombies and there is gore, or when I ragdoll smash them off a cliff

I thought I had seen all the gore you know like you hit their head or their arm and a wound appears and gets worse if you keep hitting it. I use the brass knuckles. Well I powerattacked one with low HP w a 2h sword and his torso cut in half and it just so happened to also look perfect with the animation.

You might be bugged? Did you update? I had that on launch day the sounds of volatiles chasing me and screaming as if they were near. It went away when I exited and came back to the game. And if todays patch fixed infinite day or night maybe that fixed too.

cope about it all you want contrarian faggots, your game is nothing more than a frankenstein abomination with disjointed mechanics everywhere
like it's such a clusterfuck than a few months ago, they made an update that straight up removed parkour stamina, which had been a core element of the game since its launch 3 years ago

>>721392731
The fact that zombies don't become more agressive and have red glowing eyes in the new game like they did in the first game is a crime. That actually made night time scary, and made the alarm noise your watch makes an hour before sunset dreadful. In the beast its more of an annoyance than anything. I didn't even bother sleeping since they seemed to have neutered volitiles and zombies in general at night.

The first time I played dl1 i had just left the tower and the first moment multiplayer was available some guy joined my game. I had no idea there was co-op drop in multiplayer. I had no idea my mic was set to open. I had no clue what I was doing or how to play. But xX_GabeN360NoScope_Xx helped me beat the first mission. I forget what it was. Probably turn on some power. He didnt talk, but I was probably mumbling what in the fuck the entire time. I will always remember him putting up with my retarded ass

Why can't devs let go of obviously dogshit and hated tech
They were smart enough to not touch NFT, why the fuck do they put up with RT when it kills half the frames?
>>
>>721395652
RTGI, RTAO, RT shadows and RT reflections deliver MUCH better performance compared to shadow maps, SSAO, screen-space reflections and voxel GI. You can see the major difference by comparing GTA V with GTA V Enhanced. Most developers are simply not familiar with the tech to be able to properly optimize it.

But at this point I could buy out the store every visit I have like 10k money.

>>721395269
Yeah the afterspeed or tailwind whatever boost is insanely good, best of course is preventing fall damage roll literally first upgrade. For beast, the beast jump has saved my ass.
Not much else matters.

Also I hate how the grappling hook works. We need game designers to look at worms armageddon and make the rope do that.

>>
Im about done with any facet of Dying Light. 1 was good, i couldnt finish 2 for various reasons, i dont think i can buy another full narrative action game and just sit down and listen to random NPC questgiver horseshit.

I dont know what i want really, maybe a more open ended game about loot and being a basic noname runner like STALKER 2 or something but the writers for anything these days are just so shit i feel like my eyes are glazing over while i accidentally spend the whole cutscene trying to guess what bullshit gimmick puzzle mechanic has been shoved into the mission.

I watched some gameplay and those fucking pull the cord to the plug sewuences coming back just stripped the last of my interest
>>
I'll buy this after i finish lies of p dlc, played DL1 like three/four years ago and loved it.
Only thing i didnt like was the gunplay, which is fucking boring, banal point and click at head zero challenge dogshit, and the grappling hook actually made the game worse and shouldnt have been added.
But hot damn it was a fucking great game.
Never even bothered with 2 after they fired avellone, it was clear where techlands priorities were and it wasnt making a good game, thats for sure.
Crane being back is all that Beast needed to sell me on it.
Cant wait

How two autists on 4chan argued about why story mode is the best because you can just have fun hitting zombies and dropkicking them off cliffs and exploring and another guy argued brutal at night is the only acceptable way to play because otherwise it isnt a challenge and why both are valid as people with different desires can still experience joy

Dying Light is one of those games that is just fun. I would say the biggest negative is how many side missions it has and you dont know which ones are worth doing. I would say most are not but some are really cool. Otherwise its just a fun game.
>>
>>721390285
So far my only real critique besides some nitpicks is that I'm not very incentivized to run around at night if I don't need to for a mission. Dark zones are pretty easy to just clear out during the day, whether you sneak around or go in guns blazing. Maybe they will get harder later I dunno. I remember in DL1 some materials were mostly found at night so for those you had to go out.

there are no volatiles in dark zones during the day
>>
>>721405457
There are vents are all around the dark zones which look like where the volatiles would crawl in from, but I guess they just don't. At most it's just a few virals at a time, which is easy to deal with.
I wonder if it's intentional or something isn't working.

Again, the game is fine. If you think a 8/10 game is "garbage" then you haven't played enough games or you're a contrarian princess pissbaby.

I can count the amount of OK people in this shit game on one hand, how in the fuck is everyone so insufferable in this like holy shit every time I've been given the option to kill somebody I'm pretty sure I've taken it except for the guy that helps you in the tutorial and like two peacekeepers since they're the way better faction so far

its implied at several points that while the virus broke quarantine 13 yrs ago, castor woods fell to it only a few years ago

still would stand to reason that the body would rot though thats for sure

Combat having more options at the cost of hit registration being awful
Upgrading weapons you might like at the cost of an incredibly dull grind
Choices in the story but everyone is a cunt and nothing matters on your selections on what "route"you're on aside from like 4 selections
Parkour sometimes working wonderfully and the other times you'll get stuck on the most retarded terrain alongside the glider sometimes just not having good registration when you press the button to snap it out, I've seen it way my inputs alongside the boost to gain you hight sometimes doesn't function and you just move forward
Lopsided faction rewards that push and encourage you to go survivors even if their all super cunts
Exploring buildings only to realize almost all of them are just copy pasted
Dynamic music during parkour at the cost of almost all other themes not being memorable in the slightest
The peacekeepers locking you into a hard bad end
The world doesn't seem as logical as Haran because of a lack of normal as fuck areas like gas stations, the outside, barring maybe the church areas, feels copy pasted as fuck
Yellow paint everywhere is a bit annoying
The side quest writing, those people need to fucking shut up holy shit I'm still mad hour much they talked
>ability bloat like who in the fuck really uses the 180 in air ability

Night seconds aren't scary they're just tedious because of the amount of Volatiles wandering the same fucking street together 3 seconds after night falls

you listed 1 ability, what other abilities do you not use? i used most of them all the time.

you can just ignore them, especially since you dont care about exploration rewards

the chases arent scary but theyre not even supposed to be? the whole game is meant to be less scary.

Finished the game, the Baron actually had no motivations or plan and was a giant idiot cartoon villain who died because of his hilariously stupid Last Supper monologue dinner .
Kind of refreshing, honestly.
Game was a 7.8/10. It's almost an 8, but there's some things that stop it from getting there. Clocked 38 hours, about 8 of that multiplayer and felt the length was just right but the loot animations and driving were padded length and they make go back and forth a TON to pad the runtime.

Ultimately, I think it was worth the 60 because I had a good time. I stand by what I said to people who asked earlier: Not as good as Dying Light, still worth it and a lot of fun.

This
Although Volatiles and special infected only showed on the minimap on normal difficulty in DL1
No minimap in the Beast by default, so you have to rely entirely on sound and on your Morbius ping to locate Volatiles and specials
It makes night time even more stressful and terrifying
I also like that Volatiles can notice your flashlight, they didn't in 2
>>
>>721424124
They did make Night time darker in DL2 when they overhauled lightning at some point
The problem is that DL2 wasn't originally made with roaming Volatiles at night in mind (there were only screamers zombies at first which would trigger a chase if spotted, but you had to go out your way to get Volatiles to chase you), so they half assed it and now it's too fucking overtuned and kinda breaks early game, it's insufferable
Same thing with Virals in 2, which spawn every 2 seconds, even worse than in 1
3 years of band aid fixing for 2, yet that only made the game more and more disjointed and messy
I hope they drop that shit game for good and 100% focus on supporting The Beast, because the base this time around is actually solid enough to build upon
I hope they make an expansion for the Beast at some point
>>
>>721424574
>>721424630
yeah i don't remember them showing up on the minimap. i didn't use survivor vision either because i felt like it was cheating. it was a spooky experience
>>
>>721424971
That's because you probably played the game on hard mode
Volatiles and specials infected like Virals only showed on the minimap on normal mode

Zombies are generally a boring as fuck enemy type because they are slow and retarded but in Dying Light they fit perfectly because they make the floor lava like you are encouraged to use the parkour to avoid them or outmaneuver them

The original Dead island trailer was really good, but it was nowhere close to the kind of game it actually is. Dying light's trailer felt like it belonged to that game.

when I played DI2 I genuinely thought the game had the best looking gore of all time. even better than L4D2's, but the feel of the game suffered because of the "level" design of areas like oh youre in the celebrity neighborhood oh now youre in the beach town oh you traveled to the commieblock area of the town oh now you're in this small area thats basically only a hotel. and every area had loading screens between them and the edges had clear impassable walls which felt claustrophobic. the story was wacky as hell didn't really feel immersed, and you just became too OP too quick oh and I forgot to mention that all the areas I pointed out had static zombie spawns. move from area to area you will always find that zombie next to that truck that beefy zombie will always be there next to that electric water spill the game felt arcadey as fuck.
the gore though? yeah I think it had the best zombie gore of any game ever made, I ahvent played the beast yet tho so I might change my opinion

I'm surprised by how many guns there are in this game, I think I've found like 6 different ammo types. And that's not counting bows/crossbows or the other craftable ranged shit.
>>
>>721429810
My thoughts exactly
Only thing Dead Island 2 does better than any other game is the gore, and strictly the gore.
The ragdoll physics for instance is unsatisfying, too weighty and floaty at the same time, dropkicking a zombie in that game never feels good
Hitting an enemy with any weapon feels like hitting air itself, despite the great gore
Maps too small and too cramped
And the lack of mobility and verticality compared to Dying Light is a huge step back
>>
>>721429470
hold heavy attack and the button you use to loot
so M2(hold)+F for pc
>>
>>721430064
they're all laughably weak against anything stronger than a human or human sized zombie
theres a saw blade gun that does 3x shotgun damage and even that gun isn't great for fighting volatiles
>>
>>721430064
Guns are great for the human melee enemies because they fight you as if you're a Dark Souls boss but you can just pull out the Glock and pop the motherfucker
>>
>>721430083
I also hated the incessant zombie respawn, like you'll be killing all zombies in a tiny room, turn around, and poof the room is again filled with zombies
Also a small detail, but once you open a door, you can't close it, it's unnimersive as fuck
Also no vehicles despite Dead Island 1 having cars, but yeah the maps are too small and linear for that regardless
>>
>>721417412
Do you mean the quest where the baron was spotted at the mine, or are you invading his castle? If its the first one, you have awhile. If its the second one, I dont know.

I know people are evaluating where it ranks in the franchise but what I want to know is how does The Beast on launch compare to Dying Light 1 when it launched, and Dying Light 2 when that launched?

The reddit trope would be Kyle becoming dark and edgy because bad things happened to him. But Kyle is a chad so he does the heroic thing that is to resist the urge to BEAST and use it for good. Only heroes do that.

Far better map than 2, more unique locations, more carefully crafted, full of interesting hidden shit, interiors like apartment and dark zones are also more varied
And contrary to what people say, the Old Town part is far from being small, it's actually quite huge when you're inside, plenty of parkour to be had, the map just makes it look tiny I think
Harran will still remain king because it's iconic, but the Beast map is so much better than the bland and copypasted map in 2
>>
>>721391169
I know for a fact this is an apology for 2. They actually listened to all of 2's criticisms and built the game around avoiding the parts people hated rather than aiming for the things people liked

>>721442524
There's the Hellraid arcade mode
They also added the Harran Prison heist, which is kind of a speedrun challenge, with pretty tough human enemies, and you get insane loot at the end depending on your performance

I've never played a dying light game, I confused them for dead island for the longest time, and I fucking haaaaaaaaaaated that piece of shit. I apparently got the first one on epic, is it worth playing without any of the DLC?
>>
>>721443609
Sure DL1 is amazing and fun.
>>
>>721443609
yes
>>
>>721443749
>>721443750
Right on, I'll install it tonight, dankeschon.
>>
>>721443609
Play DL1 for sure. The Following DLC should be free too.
It's probably the best zombie game ever made.

Same developers after all. The glow up from Dead Island to Dying Light is insane.

I loved Dead Island 1 for some reason. Played the hell out of it and beat the game at least once with each character.

I agree that the constant looting for 1x scrap, 2x alcohol and an uncommon watch becomes very tedious after awhile; especially when there's 30 zombie bodies to loot or a large dark zone. All the game needs is a "loot all" or "loot in an AoE" skill after you kill all the nearby zombies.

>>721444084
I didn't play much of 1 but I remember liking riptide much more than I expected to
>>
>>721444249
I never played Riptide or Dead Island 2.
>>
>>721444325
Dead Island 2 is way better than it has any right to be given it's cursed development cycle. The gore mogs the fuck out of Dying Light and it isn't even close.
>>
Why is everyone doing the God of War meme for this game? Is it because the narrative is "revenge good"?

If anyone from TL reads this, release DLC that offers the Zombies from DL1 into this new game. The current zombies look like shit.
>>
>>721446728
Open you skill tree
From there you’ll also be able to access a list of moves that are unlocked from the get go
The game doesn’t tell you this
>>
>>721446537
Uhm anon, where is Dying Light 2: Stay Human?
>>
>>721446858
You retarded or something boy? All of the DL1 enemies look the same with the same body type and bald heads. The zombies in The Beast look fantastic
>>
>>721446858
That’s certainly a take
Zombies in DL1 looked good and still do, but you’re delusional, they look vastly better, more detailed and more varied than in 1
>>
How do I become a BEAST IRL?
>>
>>721446984
Zombies in 1 have a look about them where they are appealing in an odd way, the zombies in this look like dog shit.
>>
>>721446891
Anon didn't want to stay human and went straight BEAST.
>>
>>721447064
Just bee you're self bro

>>721446891
In the trashcan where it belongs.
Dying Light The Beast is the real Dying Light 2.
>>
>>721447185
Has 1/5th the content of DL2
>>
its too fucking dark i cant see shit i died like 5 times trying to track down the trail at the beginning and keep losing xp and i cant even refund this shit cause im over the 2 hour mark now
>>
>>721446537
very kino, i wish more of my friends would play dead island 2
>i don't wanna play dead island 2
>why?
>uhhh, it's not my type of game
>uhhh, i don't wanna commit the time to it(logs another 50 hours on palworld doing nothing but clicking rocks)
>proceeds to play CoD Zombies for the 1000000000th hour
>proceeds to play yet ANOTHER early access crafting survival open world slop with terrible combat and spend hours on that instead of a fucking linear one and done game like Dead Island 2
the pain is real
>>
Just finished DL2. DL1 is better than DL2 in every way.
Techland also have a knack for making every DLC dogshit.
>>
>>721429835
Got him in the Don Flamenco loop.

This guy is the reason Dying Light 2 was the way it was guys

DL2 had a bug where one saferoom, if unlocked and you quit near it, would block you and trap you inside, with your only choice being to restore from storycheckpoint, which could be anywhere between 5 minutes and 8 hours depending on how much grinding you were doing in between story missions, not even side quests ONLY STORY MISSIONS DOES IT CHECKPOINT
you know what would have solved this issue? Having a save and load system that doesn't rely on autosaves

THEY TOOK 1 AND A HALF YEARS TO "FIX" IT, AND IT STILL HAPPENS
>>
How did they fuck up DL2 so badly?
I doubt it was just Avellone being fired.
>>
>>721447239
>DL2 content
Most of the "side quests" in DL2 are just parkour/combat challenge shit
Most Dark Hollows, Forsaken Stores, and GRE hospitals are copypasted between each other in terms of layout, same thing for the random apartments you can come across
The map of Villedor in itself feels very samey across the board, aside from maybe 1 or 2 immediately recognizable landmarks
Some sections of the city you will find an exact copy of the layout 20 meters apart
The Beast is shorter and more condensed than 2, but at the very least all of its content feels unique and actually curated enough, I'll take that over DL2 Ubisoft garbage any day of the week
>>
No legend levels this time? Why not? It's a fun way to keep grinding XP
>>
>>721447326
Good
The game is working as intended.
>>
>punch already mid way to hit zombie
>that fucking magnetize grab cancel it
>give biter moveset that 90% is power attack
Fuck youuuuuuu
>>
>>721447658
yeah, they literally made a shit faction system, split what little quests they had between them, and then made one side completely fucking pointless, with useless benefits aside from a crossbow, which doesn't matter anymore because the game has guns now, and the only reason to go SECURITY faction is because of the crossbow, NO ONE IS USING THE TRAPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
and then they put those poster challenges from DL1 on NPC's so that they would be counted as "quests" even though they are LITERALLY just the poster challenges from DL1
>>
>>721447692
There's no NG+ either, I think it will come in a later update once they're done ironing out the kinks
>>
Is there an unlockable difficulty above brutal? Brutal feels pretty good for the most part but whenever I finish this and play again I'll want something harder.
>>
>>721447368
Dead Island 2 is a really concise experience, kinda like the Beast
I just wish the maps would a tad bigger with more explorable interiors

Great news, this means the game will get support for a long time
I hope they release a The Following-sized expansion along the way

Is it explained why Crane doesn't look like The Mother did in The Beast? She was clearly more volatile than human but Crane looks mostly normal.

Olivia said that her father experimented on him and brought back his humanity.

Making corpses never fade in the Mount and Blade games looks really insane after a big battle or siege. You can tell where the heaviest fighting happened and who won, who ran, from the solid layers of dead people on the ground.

The Bazaar Survivors are fucking retards and they try to hang you when they first meet you. Why would you side with them?

I'd be interested to hear why you prefer beast over DL1.
I'm holding back on buying beast because people said it's better than DL2 but not better than 1.
