Re: Dead Island
beware of the bugs!
I luved the game but I fell outta luv when the bitch pulled the "saved game file is corrupted" at 96% complete!
I had forgiven her for the few saves that didn't save and cost me a few hrs, but corrupted save at 96%, that bitch is just cruel! lol

Re: Dead Island
it's more of a timed/checkpoint system. Most of time after doing something significant it will auto save but it also auto saves after a specific time even if u just stand still. I never actually timed it but it felt like every 10-15 mins.
I will say in all honesty, this game has the worst saving system I have ever seen in a game. How hard is it to implement a manual save in today's age of gaming? really?
but it is a really fun fucking game
Re: Dead Island
crap ... i hate checkpointsystem .... how much time do you need average to get from one checkpoint to the next one while playing the game?
You shouldn't worry so much, because dying also isn't an issue. You just lose some money and are spawned somewhere nearby without having to replay the last part of the game.

Re: Dead Island
I am not worried. I have the game and played it for about 45 minutes (the first two missions i think). After that i wanted to save but couldn`t find the savegamebutton. okay i thought perhapse it autosave when you leave the game.... it didn`t.... didn`t touched it since then
what i am trying to say it`s not about dying ingame it`s about doing missions again that i already finished.... i hate stuff like that
Re: Dead Island
I've read somewhere that in console versions you should try making some changes in the game controls and that should force the game to save them along with an autosave, but I haven't checked if it applies to PC version as well.
okay thanks nice .... i will try it next week when i am back home
Re: Dead Island
continued the game yesterday .... didn´t had any problems with the checkpointsystem looks like the "changestuff befor leaving the game" works
just arraived at the lighthouse.... so far i like the game remembers me a lot of borderlands.... driving a car could use better controlls... still have to try multiplayer
Re: Dead Island
IMO Dead Island is very similiar to Dead Rising... both games put you against hordes of zombies, you can make your own weapon or customize existing ones etc. The main difference is that you don't have to be constantly on the run which was one of the reasons why I've eventually stopped playing both Dead Rising games.

Re: Dead Island
That was a funny trailer

Still... it's not from Techland (they're making Dying Light) so there's a chance it'll be a total crap like the DI MOBA.
Edit: Guys who were behind Spec Ops The Line are making the sequel so it might not be bad after all... and I don't mind a humorous approach.
