Today, Techland gave the all clear for theRadBrad's playthrough of Dying Light.

Here is his playthrough of the game on PC using an Xbox 360 controller.

Its the same demo area from the infamous VGX demo.

Man, that bar in the middle is maddening to see, besides that, game looks grand.

 

[Camp Lo]

Wow, this game looks so good.

 

[Ricerocket]

Liking the windy weather.

 

[Filth]

looking good, but he gets overly excited for blood hand prints?

 

[Courage]

Why is the bar so high on the screen anyway/

 

[Roflobear]

I wonder why he thought it'd be a PS4 exclusive while he's playing it on PC. The game looks great though

 

[HolyFridge]

They are making a mistake letting people play it early and post videos of it. Looks pretty bad and it kinda killed my hype.

 

[NameGenerated]

This man is easily impressed.

 

[Pops Maellard]

This man is easily impressed.

Indeed. I remember watching a few videos of his playthrough of Amy a while back, and he pretty consistently would stop and say something to the effect of "Wow, I don't know what all the fuss is about, this game is great!" Recall him greatly enjoying Survival Instinct as well.

Aside from the cool-looking wind effect, the video does not impress or make me interested in the slightest. It looks like it actually plays just like Dead Island and it doesn't address Dead Island's *huge* flaw which was that the game was only good in the very 1st Act at the resort. They front-loaded it and then the rest of the game was an awful linear dungeon crawl. I don't have any faith that Techland is going to pull the same shit again with this game.

One can only assume that the open world nature of the game combined with the heavy focus on parkour will negate any possibility of it being an "awful linear dungeon crawl".

The video is good but that dude is annoying "Whhhaaat!"

 

[emiranda061288]

why would someone play a first person shooter with a controller still bugs me every time.

He said in the video he was told to do so by Techland. Maybe mouse/keyboard controls are still being fleshed out?

 

[Omega]

regen in a zombie game = lol

why even bother with it? The AI in every zombie game is piss poor, and it looks no different in this.

but anything with zombies sells and is easy to make so I already know the answer to that question..

 

[Spaaaaaaaaace]

Dead Island 3?

 

[Prophezz]

Definitely picking this up for the XB1. Big fan of Dead Island so I cannot wait for this.

lets hope they don't get lazy with the mouse and keyboard. I will definitely be playing this on my PC. I might double dip on the future in the ps4 because of my of brother.

 

[Evo X]

So where can I download this demo to try it out for myself?

 

[The Interrobanger]

Dead Island 3?

Yes, but that's not a bad thing.

The previews for Dead Island also promised an open world. Just saying that Deep Silver/Techland shouldn't be trusted to be honest.

 

[TheVampire]

Why cant they have more animations for when the zombies grab you and you escape from it?

 

[Jaroof]

That was... so sick!

 

[O.DOGG]

Game looks good but I just can't seem to get excited about zombie games anymore. I need some time away from them, a year or two at least.

 

[Sons Of Anarchy]

Looking forward to this

 

[Spazznid]

Can't stand the dude playing...


OMFGBBQ the zombies splode? HOLY SHIIIEEEETTTTT.

 

[T.O.P]

I absolutely love the zombies animations


Really exccited for this, any confirmation for 1080p on X1?

 

[Akahige]

Will this be Co-op like Dead Island?
