Dead Island Co-Op is… Derped

BT: Zombie survival co-op has never been so frustrating! Can we overcome the glitchy frustration with buddyship?!

Weird. I've been playing online on the PC version since the first day with friends and random people no problem. Well, other than a few drops. But that happens with almost every game and every platform.

DaCajun4625d ago (Edited 4625d ago )

WTF is DERPED? Sounds like something some stupid drunk high kid who can't handle his shit would say when he is passing out.

BTW I don't have that many problems as some of these fools keep complaining about. Yes there are glitches and problems but not as many as these whiners make it out to be. No more than Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

iNFAMOUZ14625d ago

lies, the game plays FINE, stop telling people this gorgeous game is derped or whatever, no its not geeks, its perfectly fine.

JonahNL4625d ago (Edited 4625d ago )

I've been playing this game for hours now and it runs just fine on PC. Stop complaining, start playing.

bumnut4624d ago

my only complaint about the pc version is no AA settings and hideous grass pop in.

gamernova4625d ago

Agreed. The game is perfect for me too.

newn4gguy4625d ago

You guys must be playing the PC version. -_- The PS3 version is pretty derped. I love it, but...yikes.

Dante1124625d ago (Edited 4625d ago )

Same with the 360, pretty "derp derp". Lots of freezing, bugs and disconnecting, PC guys.

newn4gguy4624d ago

I tried it to make sure. You're right. The 360 version is just as bad. :/

DavidMacDougall4625d ago

Same wont stop crashing my PS3, takes forever to get an invite to work aswell

antz11044624d ago

I want to believe you guys but the thing is, I haven't had a single problem with my 360 version beyond a quest waypoint not registering sometimes.

Call me lucky, but I think you're overreacting.

Dead Island 2 devs believe a Dead Island remake would be a “mistake”

We might be in the age of remasters, but it doesn't look like the Dead Island 2 devs believe remaking the original game is the right move for the series.

but remakes require far less effort for these companies and they can still charge $70 for them!

Feel like everyone makes fun of Skyrim re-releasing like 18 times yet applaud these remasters elsewhere. Would much prefer NEW games

CrimsonWing69422d ago

Making sequels really is the way to go. Otherwise we'll be stuck playing only the first entry, forever!!!

Dead Island's 2011 reveal is still the best game trailer of all time

Josiah Motley of KnowTechie writes: "I love video game trailers. While I don’t believe they are an integral part of a game’s success (especially these days), there’s something about a well-produced trailer that really just reminds me why I like video games."

Also the most misleading of all time

SDuck833d ago

How so? Because it focused on a family that you see dying? (innocent question, haven't gotten a chance to play any Dead Island game yet)

aconnellan833d ago

More the tone of it - the tone of the trailer suggested something personal and dramatic, but the game was very much reminiscent of Left 4 Dead in that you were just there to kill zombies and nothing more

Ashby_JC833d ago

You play as a singular character there is no family involved at all in the game. Still a stand out trailer that I remember clearly from years ago.

Fntastic833d ago (Edited 833d ago )

Did you not like the game?

I remember going in expecting a L4D style of game, but the excessive camera swaying honestly made me feel ill, and it's rare for a game to do that to me, still don't understand why the need for anything other than maybe a subtle slight camera movement when doing melee attacks etc. Other than that i didn't really find the game that good. In all honesty i had more enjoyment out of DNF, and i know many people crap on that game.

BioShockGX833d ago

I still remember this misleading controversy

RickRoland833d ago

It’s the music. It’s perfect. I agree with this for sure, it is well choreographed….unfortunately the game didn’t live up to the trailer.

brewin833d ago

Maybe not, but it was still a good game. I liked how they expanded things with Dying Light, but Dead Island was a great first attempt! I really liked all the Easter eggs and homages to other horror franchises sprinkled throughout. Sure it was a little cheesy and over there top, but it was a good happy medium between Far Cry and Fallout with zombies.

I'm gonna heavily disagree with that.

CrimsonWing69833d ago

Have you ever seen any of the MGS 3 or MGS 4 trailers? Those blow this out of the water for me.

TricksterArrow833d ago

They require prior knowledge of the franchise, tho. You show this trailer to anyone, and I mean ANYONE, and they can understand what's going on and relate to the family dynamic almost immediately. No need to know who is Snake, or Fox Hound, or Raiden, or Metal Gear...

Top 10 Xbox 360 Games That Need to be Backward Compatible

Kevin F. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Many of the best Xbox 360 games are playable on the Xbox One and Series X|S consoles. Some even with some enhanced visuals and performance. Unfortunately, not every game from the Xbox 360 library has received this glorious feat of being able to be played on more modern Microsoft consoles."

Max Payne 3 needs to be on that list.

The Spider-man games will never happen. The xbox 360 Marvel Ultimate Alliance games have a better chance of happening than Spider-man titles but won't happen. The Xbox One Ultimate Alliance games delisted years ago

Vits1047d ago

Yeah... you can totally forget about those entries that got delisted because of licensing issues. Those are not happening.

MetalProxy1047d ago

Wait everything isn’t BC? You guys act like it is lol

porkChop1047d ago

Almost all of the games people want to play are BC, and that's a hell of a lot better than having none available.

ApocalypseShadow1047d ago (Edited 1047d ago )

Almost all the games people want to play? Not true. Majority picks screw over the minority who have games collecting dust. Metal is right. Fans make it seem that it's all. 39/997 games from OG Xbox is NOT all. 568/2154 from 360 is NOT all. But you guys play it up like it is.

And from my count, there are 4,000+ PS4 BC games on PS5 that I see. And almost every VR game. Series X has no Kinect games or Kinect 2. But you played that up too. No more dancing.

As for the article, some of the BC games make sense. The others with Spider-Man aren't happening.
