Dying Light - PC next gen zombie open world game?

I've hardly touched the main storyline, though I usually do exploring and side quests first in games that allow it, and am having fun just doing stuff. One skill that's handy to get is the one that allows you to cover yourself in zombie guts/blood so you're masked from them for a little while. Makes it easier to try and picklock police vans.
 
Surprised there arnt more comments. One of the best zombie games I have played. Love all the different moves and the plot is quite interesting also.

Ya the little things are quite cool. Ie from making too much noise brings in bad zombies to climbing over anything and being able to go in most buildings, to using various weapons to beat your foe with.

Really great scenary also and graphics. Forgot the name of the game but played walking dead like this but this game is mu h much better.

Have to agree with that too. Absolutely loving this. The more you play it the better it gets. Plot/storyline so far seems pretty good too.

Had another strange thing happen last night - I had my 4 equipment slots filled, firecracker bomb trap thingies, grappling hook, shield and exploding throwing stars and had the grappling hook equipped then the hook's crosshairs and icon vanished. Tried cycling through each equipment item and the only one I could select was the firecrackers. Eventually had to quit and restart and all the items became select able again. Weird.

That stuttering sound fix that robmol posted a page back has fixed all my sound issues and appears to have completely smoothed out the odd graphical stutter I had in connection with the sound stutter, playing buttery smooth now for me, cheers m8! :cool:

It is an issue there was a post on steam community page with a handful of people including me affected by it. Changing my system sound to 48k sample rate and 16bit bit depth sorted it for the moment, bit annoying but better than having to restart the game every 20mins.

Out of curiosity how far are you into the game to find hand guns and such?

I literally just finished the mission where you collect protection money for Reis and so far I've only got the usual metal pipes/hammers
 
Been player this since the weekend, brilliant game, proper scary in parts and agree with others comments about the story being good, varied gameplay with the freedom to go exploring or just go on a mental rampage cutting and bashing zombies to death :)

I don't like the nightimes though and been avoiding them so far making sure I'm at a safe house to sleep through them, but won't be able to avoid them for ever :p

Images over 1,280 pixels wide should be placed in spoiler tags as I've done for you.

Anyone worked out how it decides where to spawn you when you load it up? Is it at the safe house nearest your current selected quest? Its certainly not the place you quit the game....
 
It's a great game. The open world is a lot of fun, especially hacking the zombies up as you go. Love how the bridge is jam packed with zombies and jumping on car roofs to escape the nasty biters!!

I found my first gun where you have to turn the power grid on at central station view the posts i made in this thread a few pages back ive put a spolier to where i found my first gun, just go looting police vans you fond a lot
 
Nighttime really isn't that bad... Just go out with flares and be careful checking minimap etc for volatiles.. Nighttime is awesome if you wanna level up quicker and u get bonus xp for not being detected etc...

Am about 25 hours in and only done 12% of the story.. :)
