** Official Days Gone Thread **

[Flinkman]

Caved in and bought this on friday. It's pretty awesome! Easiest way to describe it: TLOU goes open world....with motorcycles.

Borrows themes and mechanics heavily from other games: Horizon, Dying Light, TLOU and Mad Max.

Accessibility Features

UI HIGH CONTRAST COLOR MODE

In our push for accessibility, we’ve added UI COLOR MODE to help visibility and contrast in certain HUD elements in Days Gone. When enabling HIGH CONTRAST, certain key HUD elements on screen will swap color palettes to become easier to see and more visible during the game.

New Linear Option for Aiming

Some of you have requested a linear input curve for Aiming, and we heard you. This will make camera movement more one-to-one with the Right Stick input, instead of using more of the input range for smaller aiming adjustments. You will find this setting in Options->Gameplay->Dead Zone Sensitivity->Linear.

Our team will continue to identify and resolve major bugs if needed in future patches.

The devs are really supporting this game

 

[snow patrol]

Very tempted to grab this instead of Death stranding and for half the price.

It really is a good game, finished on Survival 2 mode a few weeks back. Second playthrough and still loved the entire game.

 

[insane200]

Just started this game, put a few hours into this today and really enjoying it, looks lovely, the sound is pretty decent though I do find Deacon quite quiet sometimes.

Looking forward to progressing some more and unlocking a few more skills

 

[ic1male]

Still gonna wait for a PS5 version... That's the story for the next 12 months now.

How is this game now, what are peoples opinions?

Pretty much the same, reviewers gave it a hard time while the actual gamers pretty much love it. Really hope they make a 2nd.

Anyone know a cheap place for this?

Just bought this from the us psn store. 20 dollars, around £16.

Did anybody beat the chemult mandatory horde when they’d levelled to only hold 3 grenades? Also without proximity mines? can’t beat the horde and I’m about to give up which would be a shame. Can’t get into the horse shoe cafe as must have already been in at some point so the chairs are blocking the entrance. Playing on hard difficulty. Was really enjoying the game prior to this but I guess not taking on any hordes and so not levelling up enough may have meant I can’t beat this and progress the story. Really frustrating.

 

[Suicidal Ferret]

Go back and do some of the sidequests that let you unlock better gear from the settlements maybe

It's great. Get's a bad rap in reviews I'm told.. Probably the politics being 'wrong' or something. Gameplay is genuinely enjoyable. Nothing like plotting taking out a large horde

 

[JUMPURS]

I’ve given up on death stranding after about 6-7 hours so might trade it in for this.

not a good game to get then if you’re already burned out with gaming? Not gonna get the passion back?

 

[nantucket66]

How long is Days Gone to complete for the average gamer, I'm thoroughly enjoying it, but I've no idea where I am up to, searching online for it is vague, anywhere between 30 and 60 hours. I'm not looking for 100% platinum or anything just curious.

I am up to the bit where.......

Spoiler

you find the plane wreckage and you come across the first big zombie when you are looking for antibiotics for Boozer

Thoroughly enjoying it!

 

[weathmatth]

You have a long way to go yet then .

I think it took me roughly 25-35hrs to complete the story, and 45hrs to get the platinum trophy.

 

[nantucket66]

It's a great game, seems massive. I've got a huge backlog of games and I'm don't want to start another until I'm done with this, not enough hours in the day!

 

[nantucket66]

Just finished the story, loved it! The odd bug but certainly nothing too major. Brilliant world, got a little repetitive but plenty of games do that I guess.

How much do you need to do in the post story world before you get the 'other' ending?

Like a mission or 2.
