Check out the brutal trailer for the upcoming Dying Light 2 update, Gut Feeling. Featuring major combat and physics improvements, Dying Light 2 Gut Feeling introduces bloody new ways to dismember the limbs of foes, gear transmog, a new weapon crafting system, and the Viral Rush event, which runs from April 20 to May 4. The update also launches with the new Pilgrim Outpost, where players can track community events, activate bounties, and receive Pilgrim tokens. Watch the Dying Light 2 Gut Feeling Update trailer for a look at what to expect. Dying Light 2's Gut Feeling update arrives on April 20, 2023

I guess they are trying to distract from another similar game.

Interesting that this just happens to coincide with the Dead Island 2 release

You would be amazed by how many times people were asking for it in Cyberpunk

Still waiting for the game to hit the 15-20 euros price range. Will continue waiting, but all improvements till then welcome.

They want to support it for 5 years. The later you buy it, the better it gets. The game is unfortunately very average right now.

Garbage game. Avoid if you loved the first. I played it at launch coop and replayed it again a month ago coop to see if they improved anything. I am not joking when I say that I'm pretty sure they made up a lot of issues to fix, because the exact same issues I had at launch still exist Today in the coop and even basic features they did not bother to corect such as: allignment rewards are only for the coop host, doors getting locked behind the host, combat and input delays, seeing allignment objects in the world even tho the host did not unlock them, when bigger zombies die they despawn and respawn which cause them sometimes to vanish completely, AI is dog shit, nights are a fucking cakewalk, the most important mechanic in the game is so made for babies, remember the quarantine zones in the first game, they were all unique and different, here they are all exactly the same copy pasted, voice acting is horrible, main story is shit, etc.

First Dying Light is one of the best coop games ever made, even its stupid dialogues have charm. Second Dying Light is one of the worst coop games ever made.

Also reminder they fired Chris Avellone for no reason even tho he was innocent. Dont support this trash.

It's a game that is screaming for a smaller world and a smaller campaign.

 

[M1chl]

Hmm I like this sort of physics. Maybe I will bite for some mindless fun. Is it worth it otherwise or should I rather go for Dead Island 2?

 

[Dommel]

Maybe this update finally fixed the 'cant fast travel during quest' because I'm stuck in an area I can't get out of.

I can't recommend this game. I haven't played Dead Island 2, but it seems to be the better game.

 

[nemiroff]

I'm still a bit bitter that this game made me miss Dying Light 1.

 

[winjer]

The first game was much better, in so many regards.
I gave up on it half way through because I was bored and sick of bugs and issues.

 

[ricardo_sousa11]

Dying Light has nothing on Dead Island.

Theres no character whatsoever, the potential was quite big, but such a boring mess.

 

[Krappadizzle]

Update looks great. If I can convince a buddy to play, I might try and jump in again this weekend. It's a very fun game, it just had some really odd pacing/progression issues that hopefully have been ironed out. Looking forward to it.

Just play the first game, the zombie physics are still the best in the business.

yep. really enjoyed the first game, bailed on this one after a half-dozen hours. a game as empty as its zombies...

 

[FearlessBelgian]

Dying light 2 is way better than dead island 2 btw, so nice update.

 

[Warablo]

I agree that the sequel is a step down from the original. Somewhat bitter that by save got somewhat glitched mid-way from early launch co-op issues. So If I ever comeback to it I'd need to start over.

Mostly co-op people

You can see your character quite a bit in that.

Not really

Only in mirrors ( and you have to press a button to 'turn on' the mirror), while riding a motorcycle and the endings

I've only ride motorcycles so I've seen my character quite a bit, but if you drive cars, you basically never see yourself throughout the game

I mean every time you open your inventory you see your character and a lot of people use photo mode.

 

[GMCamaro]

Oh yeah, I keep forgetting Dying Light 2 released.

 

[Germuso]

If It has the same physics as the first game, I Will buy

 

[Strider Highwind]

I went back and finished the last few main quests and closed out the story recently, game runs so much better now than it did when it launched with everything maxed...Im on a 4090 but it still was having a lot of issues a few updates ago(Random frame spikes an such even on this card)

It runs so good now, and it looks better to me color wise too, maybe its placebo but man I really liked walking around the city areas

 

[Alebrije]

Hope they relase GOTY edition with all the stuff and dlcs...no need to rush for it specially after the lots of complains about bugs and that the game can not compete vs DL1.

 

[SnapShot]

I fell asleep during my playthrough because of how much talking there was to do in it and lack of PvP Zombie Invasions, also no cars? first game had those in an expansion, had way more fun playing the first game with a friend over this

DL1>>>>

[Osthyvel]

I just started playing this today, first game is one of the best games ever, this seems very good to, i was waiting for DI2 but will wait for a sale.

Summary: dont play this game. I've played it through twice and it's no good.'

Lol

 

[WalterSobchak]

This game was so ridiculously buggy on my Xbox one I had to shelf it. Have a series X now but have not dived back in. Maybe by years end.

 

[Ce'Nedra]

I am considering playing this game after playing Dead Island 2 and getting bored of how bad it is. They did not learn nothing from Dying Light.

 

[SmokedMeat]

All I know is these first person zombie slashers produce the most fun looking trailers.

I want both Dead Island 2 and Dying Light 2. Until the prices come down I’ll just reinstall the originals.
