You can manually set AF/AA

Video.scr in %userprofile%\Documents\DeadIsland\out\Settings

Adjust as needed in a text editor, save, change file to read only (Or game re-writes it)

Sorted.

Mine looks like this:

Code: 
Resolution(1920,1200)
Monitor(1)
BPP(24)
FSAA(4)
TexBPP(32)
TextureQuality("High")
Filtering("Anisotropic")
Fullscreen()
Shadows("High")
ShadowMapSize(1024)
SpotShadowMapSize(1024)
Lightmaps()
GammaFloat(1.0)
MaxRefresh(60)
MaterialQuality(2)
FXQuality(3)
FXFadeLevel(0)
WaterQuality(2)
GrassQuality(0)
EnvQuality("FullDynamic")
ShaderPath(5)
DisplayDeviceType(0,0.000000,1.000000,1.000000,1.000000)
Postprocess("Normal")

Cheers for that game looks a hell a lot better, I set postprocess to simple, I think it looks better as in less bloom. Noticed the below in the CFG file.
!VSync() // enable vertical sync
!MaterialQuality(i) // lower is better
!WaterQuality(i) // lower is better
!GrassQuality(i) // lower is better
!FXQuality(i) // higher is better
!FXFadeLevel(i) // 0-4 (lower is better)
!EnvQuality(s) // FullDynamic, RareDynamic, Static
!ShaderPath(i) // 0 - 1.1, 1 - 1.4, 2 - 2.0, 3 - 3.0, 4 - x360, 5 - 4.0, 6 - ps3
!PostProcess(s) // Simple, Normal
!DisplayDeviceType(i,f,f,f,f) //device type (LCD TV etc.): 0 - default
!Curves(s) // curves texure
Click to expand...

So setting some stuff to 0 is the best quality.

Yeah the top section of the config file appears to just be the definitions of the available options.

Unfortunately nothing appears to be configurable in audio.scr to disable ingame voice :(
 
I want to jump on the band wagon and preorder to play on release but a part of me thinks within 2 weeks the cost of the game would have halved.
 
The problem with the melee combat in this game is the stupid FOV which is like wearing binoculars. I loaded up the patched version for awhile but still can't stomach this, I'm putting this on the shelf for a few weeks and hope that patches arrive.

:(

Can the fov be adjusted?, if not it will have to wait unplayed

He means ingame communication, it's always on and it's really bad quality.
There's no ingame option to turn it on/off/mute/levels, there's no config I can see relating to it. It often cuts out the first part of what people are saying because it's voice activated. It isn't steam voice chat either.

We want to use skype instead.
 
What's with the look of the game?, looks like someone smeared vasaline over my screen and why does the fov suck so much, what is it 60?
