*** Official Dead Island Thread ***

Update has altered gameplay so much that I no longer like the game. The strategy of using kick to control the enemy while your stamina regens is completely lost as kicks also lower your stamina. Also sometimes I can't finish the Zombies with an head stomp if my stamina is low where I could do it anytime before as long as I had some stamina. I have no problem with game fixes but why have they made the gameplay crap?

I don't notice the kick stamina much as i hardly run out but one thing I have noticed, is that zombies die quicker? I could wrong as I have not played the game in a while
 
Yeah its a very good game. Apart from its issues which lets it down a little, other than that its great. Currently helping the scientists now, made loads of $$ and got some awesome upgraded weapons. :)
 
I enjoyed the game completed it twice just waiting for the new dlc, I hope they add more weapons also increase the rating of some weapons e.g. Cooking pad, wooden stick, shovel etc to give the game more variety.
 
I take back what I said in my last post I kinda enjoying the gameplay now. I had to change my play style but I can appreciate it now.

Glad to hear your enjoying the game, I would recommend try using control pad with analog controls its great fun with precision attacks.
 
After a short delay by the publisher, the Bloodbath Arena DLC for September's hit zombie-survival game Dead Island has received a release date and price. Fans can look forward to downloading the DLC November 22.

Deep Silver today announced the release date of the "Bloodbath Arena" DLC pack for the award winning game Dead Island. The DLC will be available on November 22, 2011 for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows PC.

In the "Bloodbath Arena" DLC four different arenas offer new challenges that can be played alone or in coop mode. It's a desperate fight for survival where waves after waves of unrelenting zombies attack, one more gruesome than the next! In this DLC characters can loot experience points and items and bring them over to the campaign mode. Players can show off their skills in zombie fighting with the newly implemented leaderboards. The brain wave bomb, a new exclusive weapon, tops this DLC package off.

The DLC package is free for all customers who bought the Pre-order Edition. For the others it will have a price of EUR 9,99 or 800 Microsoft points.

I've not got it :( I pre-ordered Dead Island too. Steam hasn't downloaded it automatically. Probably go live at 7am because of the time differences.
