[sudden hazel]

[little moon]

They sure are

[near zodiac]

My favourite design is TB but DL1 is also good.

[unreal bison]

yeah like never forget there’s always a disconnect with fantasies.

[sudden hazel]

I like the DL1 design most

[unreal bison]

same honestly. It took out all the dl2 cartoonish bs and vent back to an extreme edge

[sudden hazel]

They look so demonic

[little moon]

I like tuberculosis too

[sudden hazel]

although I like the body type of DLTB volatiles

and bones sticking out of the back

[unreal bison]

so muscular hnnk. Lol. Sorry my mood swings are getting wild.

[unreal bison]

OOOOOO!

I did not notice that

[near zodiac]

Yeah

[little moon]

I like DL2 volatiles. They look like they'd be really good dogs for some reason

[near zodiac]

DL1's design is great ofc I just love how monstrous the new ones are

[unreal bison]

Honestly another reason the Beast has way better zombie design than dl2. Even after the zombie redesigns update.

[sudden hazel]

they look like crusty cake

[unreal bison]

honestly the beast even inspired my own fanfic writing. Just non stop monstrous intensity

[little moon]

Yes!

[unreal bison]

that’s mostly due to everything being toned down in 2

[near zodiac]

Like DL1's look like the "start" of volatile mutation and now we're here

[sudden hazel]

the DL1 Volatiles visual mod for DL2 Volatiles is peak

[little moon]

The DLTB one is likely just a rural mutation

[near zodiac]

DL2 has this weird cartoony look to it

It's not bad just different

[unreal bison]

I prefer the beast retexture of them

[little moon]

As DL2 ones seem to be the city ones

[sudden hazel]

there is one?

[unreal bison]

very different but I honestly feel like its a hot mess and just hoping we get the scorpio in dl TB cause its such a cool weapon

[unreal bison]

Ooohh fuck yeah!

[little moon]

True Terror volatiles mod is better ngl

[near zodiac]

Oh nice same here ^^ it's really inspired me to write and get back into art. I haven't found a game that has got my brain braining in a while

[jade zealot]

did anyone ping me in here?

[near zodiac]

I still wish the alpha volatile looked better though. It's cool but I think it should be more unique like DL1

[near zodiac]

The bot pinged everyone yesterday

[unreal bison]

Yaaaay! Honestly it just rejolted my brain and reminded me why I loved the series. So it made me inspired to write in another universe inspired by it

[jade zealot]

ty

[unreal bison]

agreed. zthe color scheme is good but the design is lacking

like not even a unique beast mode execution? Come on Techland, ya gotta make it stand out or else players aren’t gonna feel good killing it

[little moon]

Basically gives DL2 volatiles skin and gore like DL1

[sudden hazel]

and same combat animations

Alpha Volatile is a disappointment for me in this game

[little moon]

Visual mod too

[sudden hazel]

I only like that he follows you around like Mr X from Resident Evil

[unreal bison]

yeah the only reason I love them still is because of their color scheme but also cause its a farm that needs planning

[little moon]

Sound design is good though

[unreal bison]

yeah this is what made my beginning nightmare run in ng+1

[sudden hazel]

Yeah

I don't know why they change normal volatile sounds too though

[errant jungle]

So what would make the alpha volitial better in your opinion

[little moon]

They did?

[sudden hazel]

Yes

[little moon]

How

[sudden hazel]

when on nightmare mode

[unreal bison]

because they were reused from dl2

[little moon]

In whaaaat waaaaayyy

[sudden hazel]

it's more scarier I guess

[sudden hazel]

Wraith chimera body design and combat animations

[near zodiac]

A unique model and moveset would be cool

[unreal bison]

Well for starters, make it so he can follow you through vents, make it so he can see past your camo, (also remove making it run out faster when sprinting….its stupid -.-) but also make them have a tyrant moveset

[sudden hazel]

the color palette can stay

that's literally all they had to do

[little moon]

I hope we see DL2 volatiles again in like a DLC or something

[sudden hazel]

Seeing through camo is a good idea

wasnt this already in dl1

[little moon]

I love when devs bring something from an older game into a new one

[unreal bison]

yes!

[near zodiac]

I think they could have done a cool mix up of the DL1 alpha as a callback considering we're playing Kyle again.

[sudden hazel]

thats why paragliders should return

[little moon]

Nah. Wingsuit

Paraglider can be in a DLC

Both can be actually

I'm so smart

[unreal bison]

Kai, with all due respect this is your worst idea. It literally is so anti dl due to it making parkour a joke

I literally am happy with the grappling hook

[little moon]

But the shitty level 1 paraglider so it's useless

[sudden hazel]

But I want more

[little moon]

Heh

[sudden hazel]

I love being Spider-Man

[unreal bison]

….I LOVE YOUR BRAIN

[little moon]

You already have da grapple

[sudden hazel]

Now I need a wingsuit or a paraglider

[little moon]

Thank you, mildly crazy woman

[unreal bison]

Don’t worry on a period, everyone is mildly crazy woman.

[glad inlet]

welp im at requim for a scream, think ima stream it an complain about the game at the same time lol

[unreal bison]

Its mostly the agony with cramps

[unreal bison]

have fuuun

[little moon]

Wow, you can't spell reckweeyem

[unreal bison]

its spelled requiem

[little moon]

Nooo

Reckweeyem

[unreal bison]

That’s so adorable

[little moon]

Thank you!

[unreal bison]

yw! ^.^

but I seriously miss the scorpio. if the controls in dl2 weren’t so clunky, I’d play dl2 just for it

its a sledgehammer and a steam powered harpoon gun in one

[sudden hazel]

Why dont you guys like gliders though

[little moon]

They should bring back the Scorpio in a random side quests, like someone imported a package from Villedor with a really cool, special weapon and you fight people for it

[glad inlet]

dyslexia is a bitch

[unreal bison]

because

1: It’s not really something for the series due to it trivializing the parkour…THE MAIN THING PEOPLE PLAY DL FOR!

2: it frankly broke the balance of the game so bad that they had to turn it off in ng+ missions because it would break the quest

[bronze estuary]

Why you yellow

[unreal bison]

OH HELL YEAH!

[glad inlet]

exactly!

[bronze estuary]

Weren't you green

[glad inlet]

plus it gives you the glider at the BEGINING of the damn game

and the grapple hook towards the damn end

its nonsensical! it literally goes against what makes the game fun

and of course your gonna start finding high areas to jump off of to travel because its just easier and safer

[rare musk]

Wait they turned it off for NG+ missions? That’s crazy lol

[glad inlet]

instead of using the movement system the entire basis of the game was created around

somone on the team played breath of the wild and it was OVER after that

[unreal bison]

that will always piss me off. Dl2 is a hot mess and the way it gives you your tools is painful. the grappling hook imo was a great revamp and a little jank but it works and it even has some crazy tech for long jumps even in TB

[near zodiac]

Didn't DL1's intro teach anyone anything? Parachuting in is a big risk

[glad inlet]

i was just gonna respond to the ping but you got me fired up about one of the most infuraiting things in my memory

lol nice to finally have someone else agree with me

[little moon]

It's a paraglider

[unreal bison]

well if they didnt it would break missions like the chase ones

[little moon]

Not much of a chute

[glad inlet]

i HATED The grapple in the first game

[near zodiac]

You're a paraglider

Gottem

[unreal bison]

its was super broken and broke the parkour but was addicting to use for SPEEED

[glad inlet]

its one of the reasons i hate it so much compared to the sequel despite it having alot of things better than the sequels

[unreal bison]

Oooooh I understand nows

[rare musk]

No it makes sense, it’s still crazy to me though. I didn’t remember that when I first played NG+ and I haven’t played the game in a good two years

[glad inlet]

the fact it broke physics entirely was what i hated about it, no swinging, it just teleported you basically

[little moon]

That's like every video game grappling hook

[thorn mantle]

The goons are friendly too

[unreal bison]

yeah dl2 is a hot mess, only difference is its slightly less sloppy but still pretty much that live service slop I hate

[glad inlet]

if you got they had just swapped when you get the glider with the grapple hook the game would have been SO much better

by the time you get it and sstart to figure out all the fun things you can do, the game is mostly over

[sudden hazel]

It gives you the glider halfway through the game

[glad inlet]

even the original grappling hook in quake 1 had basic swinging physics

[sudden hazel]

not in the beginning

[near zodiac]

I do like the funny spiderman grapple because it's convenient but TBs is much better

[glad inlet]

to me thats within the first 25 percent

the later missions are alot longer and more involved

[unreal bison]

yeah cause the act 1 is such a hot mess and I wished we could skip it on repeat playthroughs

[little moon]

You forgot about the entire first area

That takes a bit

[glad inlet]

the intro sequence?

[near zodiac]

But also it kinda trivialises the parkour whereas the TB hook adds to it.

[glad inlet]

that takes like 5 min

[sudden hazel]

DL1 The Following and DLTB have cars and lack of buildings making parkour less of an option

[little moon]

Old Villedor...

[glad inlet]

you can spend more time there

[unreal bison]

barney is why when people say they hate the sheriff I go,”Yeah but Barney will be a black hole forever.”

[unreal bison]

Yeah, it makes sense why, but you can still parkour in rural areas, usually the grappling hook can latch onto tall trees. I become tarzan

[glad inlet]

thats just the other half of the same map

[little moon]

It's the first part of the story...

[glad inlet]

i kept trying to glide across it

[little moon]

It takes a bit to complete it

[glad inlet]

when i first played it lol

[sudden hazel]

But why can't the paraglider stay an option for those who like it

it can even be an endgame reward

[glad inlet]

if you get too far gliding it makes you crash

[little moon]

Not every game needs to appeal to everyone

[unreal bison]

THIS

[sudden hazel]

no BTZ then

[glad inlet]

its not the fact that its not fun to use, its kinda the exact point

[unreal bison]

I want The Beast to appeal to DL1 fans.

[little moon]

Wwwwhyyy

[sudden hazel]

cause there are people who don't want it back

[unreal bison]

like me. Not those who get dl2, buy skins and just play for 10 minutes

[glad inlet]

it literally encourages you to NOT do the thing the game is designed around. now if there were actual things developed in which to take advantage of using the glider, then that would be different

[unreal bison]

Yur being a baby kai

[sudden hazel]

and it's already a game mode in DL1

so it should stay unique to dl1

[glad inlet]

adding it to this game that has nowhere near the verticality of the last game would just literally break it

[little moon]

I think

The paraglider fit in DL2 well

[glad inlet]

hell they would have to add a ton of random ass fans too

[sudden hazel]

There's old town, industrial park, factories, mountains

[little moon]

But it doesn't fit in DLTB

[unreal bison]

Thank you!

[sudden hazel]

Then in DL4

It has to come back in DL4

[glad inlet]

or pull something really stupid out of their creative asses like "gore yeast pockets" that blow up like big flesh balloons and pop every so often

[little moon]

DLTB isn't really DL3

[glad inlet]

actually thats a great idea lmao

[sudden hazel]

tymon said it is

[little moon]

Shush

[unreal bison]

dude stop trying to make our zombie parkour game about generic open world nonsense.

[sudden hazel]

Paraglider will return in the next DL game

[glad inlet]

i want fermenting gore pockets that launch you into the air like airbags

[rare musk]

Fucking hideous man

[zinc flame]

All of the tunnels are underground where none of the children will ever be found

[little moon]

They just treat it like it's DL3 because it's another DL

[sudden hazel]

You wont have to use the glider

just like not everyone uses the grappling hook

[glad inlet]

blame the guy asking for the paraglider to be added, thats what led to that thought

[unreal bison]

zdude thats not even the point, every fucking sandbox game has a paraglider go play those, ya keep adding it to Dying Light then its not about parkour anymore.

[little moon]

Guys, stop arguing and love eachother instead

[unreal bison]

fair enough.

[unreal bison]

THAT SOUNDS AMAZING!

[sudden hazel]

DL's paraglider is unique

[glad inlet]

i hated the glider in breath of the wild after awhile too, becuase it is fun but it led to me skipping so much of the damn game it pissed me off

[sudden hazel]

it adds alot to the open world

[glad inlet]

great minds think alike

[sudden hazel]

pairing it with the hook is godly

[glad inlet]

it would be a lore appropriate way to introduce jump pads lol

[little moon]

Nah, using bombers as airbags

[sudden hazel]

Dying Light has always been about letting players choose how they want to play

[thorn mantle]

Hear me out:
What about a zombie who is wearing traditional clothes like leather pants

[unreal bison]

Plus something about the beast’s gore just tickles my brain.

its so satisfying

[little moon]

Freak..

[thorn mantle]

and yodels

[unreal bison]

Hey, rude.

Seriously don’t call me a freak.

[glad inlet]

i dream of them developing a gore system like the one in dead island 2. the game itself is so "meh" but that gore system is the stuff dreams are made of

to have that gore system in a game thats as good as dying light?

[little moon]

I apologise.........

[glad inlet]

ooo man.....

[thorn mantle]

instructions unclear. reverse engineered the universe in a pickle jar

[rare musk]

When I punched a zombies face at the beginning of the game and it caved in it was very well-made

[glad inlet]

i wanna drop kick someones lungs through their back

[unreal bison]

Then I will forgive

[little moon]

The problem is that they need to direct a lot of resources just on the gore systems

And then the game itself will be neglected

[glad inlet]

not as much as youd think, that system was developed fairly quickly

[little moon]

Then why is everything in Dead Island 2 a wet noodle except the gore?

[unreal bison]

I honestly would play the game just.

[glad inlet]

even though the game was in development hell for over a decade i think, the team that put out the game we played scrapped everything

[unreal bison]

EXTREME DEVELOPMENT HELL.

[glad inlet]

thats kinda why it also feels so....incomplete

it was a last ditch effort to get SOMETHING out the door

just so happened that company was developing that gore system already

[unreal bison]

would explain why I found it so boring.

[thorn mantle]

i found the source of all evil in my settings which reduced my fps on wqhd max settings with rt on down to 50-60fps. the daamn multiplicator was set to 300

[glad inlet]

i bought it on sale for 4.99 just for the gore system

its still on sale too, its worth it just for that.

[little moon]

Eh, for the best. It's a functional game with a never seen before gore system

[unreal bison]

i played it just to experience it already.

[glad inlet]

but when you play this, and then play that

its rough to adjust lol

[unreal bison]

So unlike DL2?

[glad inlet]

nothing like it really lol

dl2 troubled development was a breeze compared to it

its almost duke nukem forever level

[unreal bison]

yeah honestly dl2 imo is, “Too big,” and loses all ghe charm of dl

[glad inlet]

entire game was restarted 4 times, went through 4 different companies, hell dying light was created BECUASE of this games failure

[unreal bison]

Which we will always love it for.

[glad inlet]

the people that went on to develop dying light were working on dead island 2 and eventually were like "this is NOT fucking working, we can do better"

and they did

[little moon]

Well, Dead Island 2 does have Dying Light features left behind in it

[lapis mural]

You have deep silver to blame for that

[glad inlet]

the parkour system was the thing they argued the most about

[thorn mantle]

To know what you should avoid you have to experience what to avoid

[unreal bison]

And made one of the better zombies games of its generation.

[glad inlet]

and the serious tone, they said it clashed too much with the original

[sudden hazel]

We should remove guns from DL

[glad inlet]

so there was a world where dead island 2 was actually dying light 1

[thorn mantle]

i would like to see random gun jamming

[little moon]

Dying Light 2 should've never had guns

[lapis mural]

While I prefer the medieval theme and its more realistic having guns is better for everyone because if you don’t want to use them you don’t have to but many people like the guns so it’s better to keep them

[sudden hazel]

Yeah guns remove alot from the combat

[unreal bison]

God the fact parkour is in dying light is amazing snd tickles my brain.

[glad inlet]

i rarely use guns, although i do like the added challange of having to deal with people with guns, all it takes is to hit em with a grapple

[unreal bison]

i use guns in TB only for human enemies

[glad inlet]

they literally argued agaisnt it....smh

[unreal bison]

WHAT?

[glad inlet]

yep

[unreal bison]

Insanity

[sudden hazel]

If only people had this mindset with paragliders

[lapis mural]

The game wasn’t designed around them so they feel out of place and it just doesn’t work. The Beast mainly fixed that but still.

[noble spindle]

The beast balanced the use of guns, its not really useful for special infected but its useful for fighting against human enemies

[glad inlet]

the parkour system and the serious tone of the story were the main reasons the original team broke up

[noble spindle]

Special infected promotes the use of melee weapons humans promotes the use of firearms

[glad inlet]

thank god they knew they were right

[little moon]

Techland love destroying their previous games

Their favourite thing

[lapis mural]

Paragliders worked in Villedor a the game was designed around it. Castor woods wasn’t, which is fine The beast is going for a more realistic approach so it’s cool

[glad inlet]

i wish dl2 had incoperated pvp within the faction system so the story and multiplayer could have been intertwined

[unreal bison]

thats insane

[sudden hazel]

I dont even mean DLTB anymore

but DL4

[glad inlet]

if you sided with a faction, and are playing in a group, you would have a chance for another group to be in your game

[little moon]

Techland aren't good at multiplayer stuff

[unreal bison]

kai this is why you are set to ignore on my end

[lapis mural]

If DL4 has a city we will definitely have them back or at minimum something similar.

[glad inlet]

something like that. to make fighting over territory more meaninful

[lapis mural]

It would at least be a parachute.

[sudden hazel]

it hurts me to see how corrupted you are

[unreal bison]

gliding suit.

[unreal bison]

this would flow with the parkour way better

[sudden hazel]

how is that any different

[glad inlet]

a wingsuit, but only if its set in one of those areas where them redbull videos are shot

[lapis mural]

Not only are they not good at it, the playerbase is mainly single player types that’s why co op works and PvP doesn’t.

[glad inlet]

with like cliffs that are bigger than the entire game

then they could introduce hawk mode

fucking obliterate a zombie by flying into them at 80 miles an hour like an actual hawk

[unreal bison]

yeah plus at this point I’m just adapting it to where with a wing suit you can freely swap between them to glide short distances. the challenge is not moving too fast or falling too hard cause you will slam into walls. Makes it way harder :3

[glad inlet]

yeah where does he keep the glider?

[lapis mural]

It would be more realistic, you could only use it when high enough up, and it can only get you so far it wouldn’t allow you to fly like the glider does. You can damn near cross The Whole map with the glider it’s crazy

[glad inlet]

how is he climbing through vents

i never thought about that

[thorn mantle]

I like the fact you can watch the barons men and bandits fighting little wars sometimes

[glad inlet]

you tellin me hes got a glider that collapses like some futuristic umbrella

[little moon]

DLTB needs hang gliders

[unreal bison]

without the boost

[sudden hazel]

now explain how he gets back the grappling hook after swinging

[thorn mantle]

Nope he uses his rear pockets. They can store a whole house

[glad inlet]

if they added gliders id finally get on twitter and learn how to rage hell towards the devs

[sudden hazel]

I would meatride techland

[little moon]

A hang gldier wouldn't have a boost

[sudden hazel]

you're not getting past my sticky glaze

[glad inlet]

now imagine the theme song for polly pocket, but instead its "prison pocket"

[little moon]

Do you know what a hang glider is

[lapis mural]

The grapple isn’t wrapping around anything he’s throwing it so hard it’s Sticking into what he throws it at and he’s yanking it out

[unreal bison]

see there ya go ^.^. sorry my brain is in “spite Kai,” mode

[glad inlet]

alternative, the hot pocket jingle works as well

[unreal bison]

Nods

[glad inlet]

which is really dumb and impossible but better than not working at all

[lapis mural]

It is impossible but he’s enhanced so it makes sense

[sudden hazel]

It should wrap around monkey bars

[glad inlet]

to develop the tech that would have it wrap around things dynamically.....that would take alot...and if they did i would GUSH about it non stop

[sudden hazel]

but stab into walls

[glad inlet]

you could cheat if you could change the hook part into a sort of robotic claw that could articulate itself

like a robot claw hand

[unreal bison]

thats the fun part of realism. Makes sense? Okay. Dont need to emulate everything in realistic for it then

[glad inlet]

still couldnt grapple flat surfaces

[sudden hazel]

What do you think about climbing claws that let you climb plain walls

[lapis mural]

If they used realistic grapples it would be one time uses unless you manually unwrap it which is a neat idea

[unreal bison]

anyway this was fun but I gotta go

[glad inlet]

then you end up with the same problem that everyone discovered in assassins creed origins and every future assassins creed games parkour system

you could just hit climb and hold forward and turn your entire brain off

[sudden hazel]

Before DLTB released I thought we would have to craft grappling hooks and theyd have limited uses before breaking

[glad inlet]

that would be bad

[unreal bison]

every idea that Kai says makes our game worse

like holy shit.

[lapis mural]

It’s definitely an interesting idea, I could see that working. You either craft them and keep using them or you have to keep going back and unwrapping it to keep it.

[glad inlet]

damnit why did yall have to be so fun to talk to, i was supposed to be starting a stream, already posted the link here like...30 MIN AGO jesus christ i gotta go stop being interesting

[sudden hazel]

67

skibidi dop dop yes yes

[unreal bison]

yeah I feel ya lol im supposed to be rping with a friend so I gonna go do that

[lapis mural]

He loves DL2 so you gotta bear with him, I also love DL2 but I personally prefer the more grounded approach that The Beast did.

DL2 introduced a lot of great features and The Beast took the best and refined them

[sudden hazel]

DL2 was my first game

[edgy rover]

Except for the gore

[lapis mural]

The gore is about the same but better graphics so it looks better but in terms of what you can do it’s the same

[unreal bison]

Ah fairs.

[edgy rover]

About the same? Just no. Not even near. DI2 has 2x as many variables , no dying light game can come close. Better yet, no game can come close on the market currently

[lapis mural]

Your confused friend

[edgy rover]

Hardly

You must have never played Dead Island 2.

[lapis mural]

We’re talking about DL2 not Dead island 2

[edgy rover]

Oh

In that case yeah, my bad

[lapis mural]

DL2-DI2

[edgy rover]

In that case, i agree, the beast just all around beats DL2 in all areas except for the content

The content is rather lacking, but hopefully that will change

[lapis mural]

Dead island 2 does have better gore but it’s not enough to carry the game, the game is incredibly mid. It’s not bad but it ain’t good it’s just a waste of potential. I’m looking forward to what they’ll do with Dead island 3

[near zodiac]

Let them cook

[sudden hazel]

The curse of the sequel

[lapis mural]

The curse of not having Techland make the game is more like it

But true, often times sequels don’t hold up to the orginal but sometimes they blow it out of the water

[sudden hazel]

like Dead Space 2

[edgy rover]

In DI2's case it was the latter.
Dead island 1 is a really mid game at best. Boring if we are not kind

[lapis mural]

Great example

[lapis mural]

Dead island 1 is better in almost every way other than graphically pretty much.

[edgy rover]

Replay that game, its tediously bad. Riptide was somewhat better but dead island 1 is nothing special besides being the "first"

Nostalgia can blind

[lapis mural]

Dead island 2 has shit characters, shit story, shitty sectioned maps instead of open world. The story is also incredibly short, it ends just as it feels like it’s actually starting. The gore is great, the weapon design is great and the graphics are great that about sums it up though

[edgy rover]

Are there even characters in dead island 1? Just rewatch the cutscenes if you don't rewatch the game

[lapis mural]

Yeah Sam B is from the first game

[edgy rover]

And if it comes to npc's, its the same guy 10+ times when it comes to side quests. Not like the same character, but the same model, etc

[lapis mural]

Which reminds me they butchered Tf out of Sam B

[edgy rover]

And he shined in the intro, besides that he is a nothing burger, boring like the rest of the cast in the cutscenes. Which is funnily irnoic, considering the who do you voodoo is his one hit wonder in lore too

[edgy rover]

You can't butcher what never existed though. Seriously, just rewatch the cutscenes. The main characters after the intro are really generic. The intro was peak though

[lapis mural]

If you like DI2 great, glad you enjoy it but I can’t pretend it’s a good game because it’s not, it’s not bad but it ain’t good. It has some interesting features and that’s why I’m looking forward to 3. Hopefully they listen to the feedback and apply it otherwise the 3rd game is gonna be mid too.

[edgy rover]

I mean,differnt sides of the same coin.

But let's just agree, that both DI 1 and DI2 are arguably just mid games at best.

[zinc flame]

[lapis mural]

I’m hoping the next Beast update will be some more side quests and something replay able like the GRE anomaly’s like DL2 has but with different chimeras.

I’m curious to know what the next roadmap is gonna look like, I hope they have big plans for the game.

[sudden hazel]

Do you know how big the first roadmap for DL2 was?

[lapis mural]

Nope, I wasn’t playing when it launched so I have no idea how big, all I know is they promised 5 years of updates

[edgy rover]

Or we could push for an expansion. IF all the previous games got one, this one should too.

Otherwise, techland just lied their arses off when they claimed "this is dying light 3 for them"

[sudden hazel]

I don't think DLTB needs a dlc expansion

[edgy rover]

Why not?

let me guess, DL2 needed one though, right?

[sudden hazel]

Yes

but not bloody ties

[lapis mural]

An expansion is very unlikely, it’s not impossible, if the community vocalizes they want one it’s definitely possible but since this game started as a DLC it’s not likely to get one. And if they did at one they’d definitely charge for it but that’s fine I’d buy it.

[edgy rover]

Someone above was right , this one is a biased fanboy case.

[edgy rover]

So why did they claimed that this is like dying light 3 for them ?
Why did they release this at full price? If this is just a crappy standalone DLC?

I'm not attacking you, i'm being skeptical about techland being really scummy if you are right

But even if you are right, i wouldn't mind.
Would it be a bummer? Yes
But it would also add one more studio to the "never buy from again" list

Which is a useful list in general

[sudden hazel]

Not every game needs DLC

[edgy rover]

Yeah yeah, but your favorite DL 2 did.

Dude, please, this is giving me a headache. I hate bias

[lapis mural]

All the game really needs is more replay able content, and more weapons, armor and outfits. But I’d love to have more, I’d kill for an expansion I just don’t think they’ll gonna do that they already stated the game wasn’t getting anything like that but they could change their minds

[sudden hazel]

Which was going to be DLTB but it turned into a game

[edgy rover]

DL2 never needed any updates Kai. How about that?

[noble spindle]

I wouldn't consider Dying Light the beast to be DL3, I think its more of a standalone game to the franchise

[tiny oracle]

because it is like dying light 3 for them. it is its own game, calling it a 'standalone DLC' is pretty silly. techland has always given years of support to each of their games, especially with adding content. most ppl who do talk about dltb's lack of content compare it to dl1 or dl2 expanded upon content that DLTB has yet to get

[edgy rover]

Techlands words, not mine

[noble spindle]

Did they say this?

[edgy rover]

Yeah around release

[sudden hazel]

It needed updates because it was downgraded in some aspects from the first game

[tiny oracle]

DLTB is dl3 in spirit is the best way to put techland's words about it

[lapis mural]

Yes, The Beast it DL3 confirmed multiple times

[edgy rover]

Well people talk, because we haven't had any news. I don't even count the 11 weeks thing, since most of those stuff were already done at release, modders unlocked a good chunk of it early on

[noble spindle]

I wouldn't really consider this DL3, if this was the case than Dying Light Bad Blood was DL2

[edgy rover]

Oh the bias

[sudden hazel]

They should focus on DL4

[lapis mural]

You don’t consider it 3 which is fine you have the right to feel however you want but in reality it is DL3.

[sudden hazel]

DLTB just needs updates and stuff

[lapis mural]

Wether you like it or not it’s 3

[tiny oracle]

developing new things takes time. the roadmap page they had talked about how they'll be adding new content past the 11 week roadmap and that ppl will just have to wait and see what

[noble spindle]

I don't agree with this statement, it isn't called Dying Light 3 for a reason.

[edgy rover]

Why are Dying light 2 fanboys so annoying?
"THis game should get 1000 year of support, but the others can go to the crapper"

[edgy rover]

Techland pretty much claimed this is DL3 though

[sudden hazel]

They said they want to stop using numbers in their titles

[lapis mural]

So Techland confirming it’s DL3 isn’t enough? So because you feel differently it’s not DL3 anymore ? 😂

[near zodiac]

Guys can we stop arguing and go back to gooning over Kyle pls

[noble spindle]

Is their a article proving these claims?

[lapis mural]

Tymon himself stated it’s 3

[sudden hazel]

I only goon to asian baddies

[lapis mural]

Yes, go look it up

[edgy rover]

We'll see, if its new content or "new content". bounties and pilgrim support would be bare minimum for example

[near zodiac]

🧴

[lapis mural]

You’ll easily find multiple sources confirming that

[near zodiac]

Bad Kai, bad

[edgy rover]

It's also the most important info about the beast, since if they don't give the usual support, we can totally call them out on it

[noble spindle]

"This is a new game. At some point, a few months ago, we basically started treating The Beast as the next entry in the Dying Light series. Maybe it doesn’t have ‘3’ in it, but for us, it is Dying Light 3."

Ouch

[lapis mural]

They’re most likely moving away from numbered games, which in all fairness they eventually had to unless you want to count to the moon

[lapis mural]

It’ll definitely get at least a year of solid updates and content

[edgy rover]

That would be god awfully weak, considering all the others got 4-5

[lapis mural]

After that, I’m not positive but I believe they’ll keep working on it up until we get the next game. They’re just being careful so they don’t lock themselves into a promise like they did with the 5 years of updates for DL2

[lapis mural]

We got what was advertised though, they specifically said multiple times this game will be smaller in scale. We’ve known that from the beginning. I’m not expecting a whole lot of content but I do want it.

[noble spindle]

Idk its weird, usually when you hit the 3rd part, thats when you start naming it something else.

[lapis mural]

It would be different if they advertised the game as being the next big thing but they didn’t

[noble spindle]

I think 3 is the sweet spot, to start naming different standalone titles

[edgy rover]

They made sure, that the price wasn't smaller in scale.
And it was about the game map, not the post launch support.

[edgy rover]

Well, techland-ubisoft has a charm though

[noble spindle]

Dying Light 1
Dying Light 2
Dying Light 3
Dying Light The Beast, etc But they did the same with call of juarez

[edgy rover]

Less for more, the modern trend.

[lapis mural]

And to be fair so many people got the game for free, and I easily got my moneys worth

[tiny oracle]

The Following is $50 USD, they're pretty consistent with pricing

[edgy rover]

Well, if you are right, fck techland. That's all i can say.

[lapis mural]

And 60 is cheap compared to what most games cost

[edgy rover]

60 is literally the standard price. For now. 70 for some AAA games, but let's not act like that it's a budget game

[noble spindle]

Techland needs to release Call of Juarez 4!!!

Gunslinger was my favorite entry in the Juarez series

[glad inlet]

I wasnt sure if the alpha would chase me once I got ij the factory on requim for a scream

[edgy rover]

Which contains dying light 1

[glad inlet]

But oh did he ever. I dunno how I did it, but I managed to run away to safety on nightmare mode lol

[lapis mural]

If you start a quest it won’t still be chasing you, it’ll reset back to stalking

[glad inlet]

Nearly had a heart attack

[glad inlet]

It chased me inside and wouldnt stop

[tiny oracle]

ur thinking of the enhanced edition which is available whenever steam has a nice sale, can go to steam's store now and see the following alone

[glad inlet]

Its on stream too lol

[lapis mural]

Fr? 😂 must be a bug then every time I started a quest even mid chase everything resets but maybe the alpha specifically can but I think it’s a bug

[glad inlet]

I was struggling to find the entrance before night time and thought oh ill be OK if I get insixe

We're you playing on nightmare?

[edgy rover]

Nope, check steam, the 50 euro version containts a lot

[lapis mural]

That place has multiple spawn points so it’s totally possible it followed you in there, it can also get into a lot of the dark zones

[sudden hazel]

When you swing on the grappling hook and manage to launch yourself very far

[glad inlet]

Wouldn't it be halarious if they added the ability for people with over a hundred hours of playtime random opportunities to become an alpha without telling anyone, and also making them sign an NDA to never disclose that this is even possible

And make a sort of alpha volatile fight club lmao

For like a day or so

[lapis mural]

I love how you can actually keep your momentum with The Beast grapple, I’ve been playing DL2 and there’s absolutely no momentum for the grapple. You have to keep jumping to go faster or you can drop kick but if you just get off the grapple you lose all your speed but in The beast you can go so damn fast it’s not even funny. I tested it out under the highway and I was going like 150mph 😂😂

[sudden hazel]

and when you swing multiple times in a short time

it's just flying

[lapis mural]

It’s pretty cool and a welcome change for sure.

[sudden hazel]

I dont get why people say its worse

It's perfected

I like that I need to hold L1 to swing

[lapis mural]

Agreed 💯

[sudden hazel]

Now the next improvements should be:
Climbing the rope
Kicking off the rope tweaks

I dont like how your momentum vanishes as soon as you kick an enemy when swinging

Also I'm happy this secret feature exists where you quickly press kick and hold jump when swinging

which throws you forward while also giving you height

this is something techland should never patch

it's not a bug or a glitch

it's basically a hidden feature

Who uses this?

[hardy spoke]

Remember to refrain from mentioning fights in specifics outside of the spoilers channel, could you delete this please?

[glad inlet]

Oh man the bug is even worse in this game

[glad inlet]

I thought it was vague enough but my bad

Perfect opportunity though, in dl2 you could hang on the side of a ledge and nearly all enemies that aren't human will run right off the side

Well right now I just discovered in this game its even worse! Regular zombies stumble slowly off the side, even the more advanced runners cant attack you while your on the side for some reason

Im hanging on right now an watching one of em run back an forth for the past 2 min lol

[stark dew]

you talking about when you let go at the perfect time and it flings you?

[sudden hazel]

Yes

[stark dew]

best thing ever

[tawny sentinel]

Kinda my fault on this but have been scrolling the Beast night chases before bed and suddenly had a nightmare related to volatiles

Aside from that, I’m impressed just how aggressive night chases are compared to the previous games, no room to breathe

[boreal tendon]

Current favorite thing is walking up to pedestrians in a beaver mascot costume and beating them with a stick

[little moon]

In The Beast, right...?

RIGHT????!!!!

[boreal tendon]

:D

[thorn mantle]

[little moon]

I wish biters had more endurance

Early game biter combat is really fun

Because you have to smack them a bunch

And it reminds me of Dead Island 2

[magic matrix]

2 days later i still dont have the rewards and yes i submitted a ticket so hopefully they help me get them

[little moon]

Did you get any rewards from the previous challenges?

[magic matrix]

none my buddy got all of them and we participated at the same time

[little moon]

So you got no rewards?

[magic matrix]

correct none

[little moon]

So you won't get the rewards presumably as it isn't meant to be a co-op thing, and I'm pretty sure it must only count towards the host in co-op. Keep trying Support though

But that's just a theory

A BEAST theory

[magic matrix]

if coop doesnt count thats lame af becuase we started the game together and i didnt read to much into the challenges so idk if it said you had to do it in single player mode

[little moon]

Support's your only hope

[boreal tendon]

it should count as the devs seem bug of the comminuty playing together

[stable gull]

will i get the nightmare rewards if i switched to nightmare for most of the playthrough or do i gotta go around again

[sudden hazel]

If you ever switched from nightmare to a different difficulty in the same save then you won't get the rewards

[stable gull]

dam

might as well stay on nightmare since it isn't a huge difficulty spike

[glacial wave]

thank you i appreciate you

[hardy spoke]

I got you boo

https://discordapp.com/channels/289739584546275339/1414612841536950302

[mortal walrus]

I’ve put one up a few days ago and it’s down because no one replyed lol 😭

I’ll delete if not allowed

[hardy spoke]

always good to try again, you might have made one while there wasn't too many people on due to all the timezone differences

[mortal walrus]

I know I forgot to check don’t know how long they stay in

On im on Xbox and everyone I run into is on a different console wish you could cross play but oh well

[turbid tendon]

Beast lol

Lol beast

[glass meadow]

best way to get blades?

[warped latch]

Do you still have survival sense in brutal difficulty?

[sudden hazel]

yes

[whole tendon]

You have it in all difficulties, just in higher difficulties it gets worse

In nightmare you pretty much can’t scan for resources, volatiles still show up

[near zodiac]

Hardware stores are great for them, warehouses too maybe

Guys are we beasting it

[severe tangle]

Always, every second of the day

[gloomy ridge]

Heyy everyone!

[crystal basin]

If they annouce no new content, I'm gonna flip

And they better not add bundles to that game, because it doens't need to be like DL2

[little moon]

Kyle's abs will be 10% more toned

[crystal basin]

I think Ill just complete all activities before any content comes out

[twin light]

Anyone broken on dying light the beast that they can help a brother out with op weapons, armour and resources 🙏

[severe tangle]

Only thing that would really be possible is materials at this point cause the leveling system on weapons

[opaque oyster]

I mean i wouldnt complain if they are as cool and cheap as they were on dying light 1 , specially tactical weapons imagine a fully custom m4 like the one from dying light 2

[twin light]

Well anything would be appreciated and I can use so it's abit easier for me on nightmare, you got lots of resources

@severe tangle

[lusty cradle]

So how does Kyle eat sunflower seeds thru his Nocturnal mask? 😆

[hoary anchor]

true

[twin light]

OK then

[versed fox]

Im degenerate

[turbid tendon]

Twin

Not the adjective

Just the tag

Which we don't have

[placid dawn]

I’ve been running threw the main story and feel like I’m stuck on lvl 5 is there somthing I’m missing ? All the quests are lvl 6 now and I’m not even 1/3 of the way to lvl 6

[heavy harness]

They should add round base co op mode like cod zombies

[little moon]

Do side quests and activities

You're meant to be doing those

[placid dawn]

I know have one unlocked 😢

[lusty cradle]

I would run around the whole map and unlock all the safe houses. Gives a good amount of xp just from that.

There will be one where a certain item is needed so just skip that one for now.
I was level 7 before I did the 3rd mission lol

[whole token]

absolutely not

no one wants that crap

[waxen shuttle]

Is there any hidden goodies for completing the game in nightmare difficulty?

[whole token]

you get an outfit if you do it from the start to the end

[candid perch]

U also get a truck skin

[flint barn]

Hey guys, what's better? Look for all the collectibles in the first game, or make new game plus in nightmare and then do it (I already did the secondary missions)

[near zodiac]

I personally did everything before going to NG nightmare

[solid mesa]

Honestly I think this is worse than Dying light 2

[thorny crane]

then you need to open your eyes ngl

[solid mesa]

Its just bad, parkcore is worst, bows feel shit to use, weapon progerssion is so bad your constantly switching weapons, vehicles are like one time uses,

[thorny crane]

your not meant to keep the same weapon throughout the whole game lmao

[solid mesa]

Buddys unable to see things from his own pov

[flint barn]

Ok ok

[solid mesa]

typing out first thought that comes to mind type arguements

[mental linden]

Even in the first game, you're pretty much always switching out your weapons for a better one.

[near zodiac]

In regards to vehicles you can refuel them and you can repair them with kits you unlock, which does help

[solid mesa]

but leaving up didnt make them inferior. It seems like they break alottt faster and modding them feels pointless

[solid mesa]

yeah you can but mid sized map with too many things in the roads for free world use, not super meant for vehicles but still feels like a downgrade from lthe rest

[near zodiac]

Fair enough

[leaden saffron]

Can anyone please help as to why barons soldiers are always freezing, I can use my shotgun at all. It’s not allowing me to aim, or move with the shotgun specifically. The crossbow has no aim whatsoever.! Is this fixable?.. wth is going on?.. please somebody!

[upbeat meteor]

I think the grappling hook in DL1 clears the beasts hook

[near ibex]

are there missable collectables in beast?

[solid mesa]

100%

[opaque obsidian]

parkour feels good imo, you needa level up bows and bows aint everythin, and idk abt weapon progression theres nth but upgrading attatchments, repairing, upg bp's, etc and vehicles can he refueled but ig you should be able to customize it and stuff like dltf

[upbeat meteor]

nopeee

[near ibex]

oh thank god, i appreciate it

[lone narwhal]

Bow's feel is the best in the series tbh. Maybe if you don't have parkour shot it might not feel great, but they're insane once you've unlocked it

[alpine knot]

So quick question if I started my ng+ on another difficulty besides nightmare then switch to nightmare early on will I still get the rewards?

[solid mesa]

it just doesnt feel as satisfing to use. like no one shot head shot and no arrow recovery seems so plain

[lapis mural]

No

[lone narwhal]

I don't think so. It's possible you might get full credit if you switch before the first Chimera, but I have a feeling it needs to be a 0-100% main story playthrough for credit

[solid mesa]

I mean even with power shot

[lapis mural]

Has to be nightmare start to finish

[alpine knot]

Ok so then I should just switch back then I guess

Btw how much xp do you lose if you die

[lapis mural]

It’s more realistic, you’re not gonna be able to recover your arrows every single time they’re gonna break or be unusable sometimes.

[alpine knot]

I’m legend level 125 and don’t wanna risk dying too many times

[lone narwhal]

Parkour power shot oneshots pretty much everything smaller than a goon/demolisher/volatile on headshot, and arrows can be retrieved. Arrows fly through targets rather than stick to them, so it'll usually be found on the surface behind your target

[solid mesa]

i have yet to recover a single arrow

[lapis mural]

Yeah probably unless you want the practice, you lose a good amount of XP but not as much as DL2

[lapis mural]

You haven’t tried to then, I’ve recovered hundreds of arrows it’s just not an everytime thing.

[solid mesa]

maybe im just not checking the ground behind them

[alpine knot]

I probably attempt it once I’m closer to max level I’m on my 4th ng+ rn

[lapis mural]

They usually go through the enemy so check the ground and walls behind them

Bolts get stuck in enemies

Bolts also have a higher chance of being recovered because they’re smaller and sturdier

[paper acorn]

can someone tell me if i can get the legacy katana as a blueprint to craft

[lone narwhal]

You can't

[paper acorn]

ok

[lapis mural]

There’s no blueprint for any of the legendary weapons you can find. But you can obviously upgrade the blueprints to legendary and if you participated in the event you’ll get a craftable katana blueprint

[paper acorn]

sadly i didnt have the game before the event ended

id really like a katana tho idk if someone drops it in my game if i can get the blueprint

[lapis mural]

Yes if someone drops you the event weapons you can get the blueprint from them.

[stiff minnow]

Not sure but didn't they patch that a little bit ago?

[lapis mural]

The weapons can be dropped but if they’re a higher level than you are you can’t use it but you can still pick it up for the Blueprint

[slate finch]

Just finished new game plus 2 on nightmare:D

[lapis mural]

Yall notice the influx of people asking for resources? Which isn’t inherently bad I totally get it but I don’t think anyone on their first playthrough should be doing that. Taking your time to loot and explore is a big part of the game and having everything given to you early on also means you’ll have things upgraded way quicker than they should be throwing off the balance to the game. I remember back on DL2 after my 2-3rd playthrough I asked for ammo, UV bars, and military medkits but I had beat the game multiple times before asking. Not needing to loot and work towards upgrades cuts out a big portion of the game I think you should do on your first playthrough.

[stiff minnow]

Most gamers in general have gotten too damn lazy to play the game themselves anymore. Most would rather go asking for handouts now

[crystal basin]

I dont think this game needs an expansion right?

[thorny crane]

Ngl I should lokey flame the hell out of them in DMs saying oh ye come to DMs and start flaming them 😂

[hardy spoke]

bad grotto

[slate finch]

It needs it

[thorny crane]

If the beast came out a week ago I would feel bad but come on you’ve had 4 months unless your new of course

[slate finch]

It lacks map content after some time and it needs more parkour areas

[lapis mural]

Lmao I wouldn’t flame them, I get it to an extent some people just want to go go go and don’t really care about the balance or story they just want to be strong and have fun. I just couldn’t do that myself. Looting is a big reason you take the time to explore

[thorny crane]

I’m bad when I’m tired

[thorny crane]

Ye same spent a good month looting dark zones paid off a lot

[prime igloo]

I noticed this. It was... bothering to me personally.

[lapis mural]

Yeah it’s not a big deal but it just irks you a bit I get it.

Like damn at least try yourself before asking.

[prime igloo]

What is the point of playing a game based on survival if you're not gonna interact with the survival aspect?

[stiff minnow]

Exactly but like I said too many people get games based on looks and then want handouts rather than challenge

[thorny crane]

They lazy and what I say to that is never give up it’s like the gym man people do it once then give up same thing with looting lmao

[prime igloo]

Plus, co-op is more than just loot drops. It's bonding with others and having each other's back against all kinds of threats, human or infected.

[lapis mural]

People are free to do what they want but it’s just such a bad way to experience the game, an I can almost certainly say the people asking for stuff won’t be playing the game for long. I dont know it just bothers me even though I know it shouldn’t

[prime igloo]

Like, it's playing Don't Starve Together and just have food and everything positive. It ain't a survival game without challenges and the need of resources.

[stiff minnow]

And then those same people who will complain they got bored or game was too easy

[thorny crane]

I think people also gotta learn to say no to these people like it’s just fuelling them I know it’s about being kind but at least try it yourself first

[prime igloo]

To be honest, I did got bored of it. But in fairness, I spent almost 400 hours on the game.

[stiff minnow]

Yea but I mean the type who get tossed stuff then like 10 hours in quit because they already had everything and had nothing to grind for

[lapis mural]

Exactly

[prime igloo]

I'm aware. I'm just saying about my behalf.

But yeah. What is the point of the game if the game had no challenge?

[frigid stream]

every dl game has an expansion, wouldn't make sense for dltb to be the only game in the franchise that doesn't have a dlc. its just a matter of tuning out the people that joke about the fact that a dlc has a dlc.

[stiff minnow]

To me its no better than the people who use ce and play every game on godmode but then complain everything is too easy

[frigid stream]

and, if its a good expansion, that would help of course.

[crystal basin]

Yeah, People say a small map makes big differences.

[prime igloo]

Even though the game isn't a DLC anymore. It started as one, but it isn't.

[prime igloo]

Doesn't mean the difference is good.

[frigid stream]

i'd have a small handcrafted map with loads of detail rather than another bloated copy and paste map.

[stiff minnow]

Too many games think bigger map makes a better game without caring how empty the map ends up

[prime igloo]

As much as I would prefer that, I would like the game to allow more parkour.

[lapis mural]

Not only that but we got what was advertised, we knew since they said it was gonna be a game and not a dlc that it would be smaller in scale.

[prime igloo]

AC Odyssey being a huge mark of this.

[frigid stream]

well yeah of course, thats what really carried dl2's map, if it didn't have parkour it would just be total shit.

[prime igloo]

I would agree there. I just wish Caster Woods had more room to parkour.

[stiff minnow]

Alot of there games fall to that issue tbf

[frigid stream]

and thats the 1 thing i don't like too much about dltb's map, not enough parkour opportunity like the 1st and 2nd games

other than that, its a good map, dare i say the best map

[prime igloo]

I guess. But even then, I can see how some games having this map design works dependent on the story they're on about.

[prime igloo]

It's also what I dislike about it. It felt less like a Dying Light game, as parkour is basically one of its biggest identities.

[frigid stream]

i think the combat AND the night time really outweighs the feeling of it being less of a dl game. but yes the parkour is what makes the franchise unique in the first place.

[prime igloo]

Combat is better, yes. But sometimes you play DL, first or second, just to parkour through the environment and immerse yourself there.

At least I do that.

[lapis mural]

Doesn’t feel any less of a DL game for me, there’s still plenty of parkour opportunities, it’s just the whole map isn’t one big parkour playground.

[frigid stream]

yeah i do that too more-so the 2nd game cuz it has better parkour

[prime igloo]

I do both. First game for the environment, second game for getting into the mood with the Joy of Parkour playing as I make badass moves as a big black chicken.

[frigid stream]

but that isn't balanced as much as it should be, the openness of the map mostly dominates the parkour aspect of the game.

[prime igloo]

I guess for you. But for me, it's way too open with so few opportunities. You're basically not even a parkourist, just a running man with anger issues.

[lapis mural]

Ehh, yes and no. There’s even places in the woods you can parkour on, you can parkour all of old town, the rich neighborhood as plenty of parkour same with the factories there’s just places in between those that feel more barren parkour wise but that’s what the vehicle is for similar to The following. I prefer having vehicles in DL, parkour is awesome but so is driving around when you can’t parkour.

Hell there’s even minor parkour sections in the woods

[prime igloo]

Until you learn the grappling techniques. Then driving is basically useless.

[frigid stream]

i mean im not saying there isnt a decent amount of parkour opportunities, but again, it should be more balanced.

[prime igloo]

Exactly. It feels more like The Following (Great DLC BTW) than Dying Light itself.

[lapis mural]

I’ve done a no vehicle run an a full vehicle run, there’s certain parts where driving is just faster doesn’t matter what you try to do. Especially when you go straight to the objective rather than using the gps which takes you the long way. And again driving is fun, especially once you get good at it.

But everyone’s different and I get that

[frigid stream]

the vehicle is a good addition to the game, and its great to drive around the map with it, but parkour IS the main traversal tool of the game. climbing anywhere and anything is the motto according to them.

[prime igloo]

Certain parts, yes. But majority, you can do it really fast without a vehicle just because of a hook.

Like at this point, we might as well have a integrated grappling hook for a hand.

Would be a cool melee weapon now that I think about it.

[lapis mural]

I would definitely see it more as a problem if it was like this goin forward but for one game it’s totally fine.

[prime igloo]

Yeah. I can't judge it too much as just one game.

I'm just noticing flaws on my eyes.

[frigid stream]

yeah and maybe in time, we'll start to appreciate that more about dltb when future dl games come out

[lapis mural]

Totally possible, the game has flaws just like the first 2 but i genuinely love it, it’s a great game overall imo.

[prime igloo]

I'm just hoping it doesn't lose its sense of identity as a parkouring survival game.

[prime igloo]

Out of the three Dying Lights, definitely the second best.

Not a mid game, it's still really fun. Just that I spent too much time on it to appreciate it.

[frigid stream]

me too.

[little moon]

DLTB suuuucks it should have yellow paint on every surface!!!

[stark dew]

the barons theme song is genuinely so peak

[narrow abyss]

for the story mission "some like it dark (objective; find sven's missing squad members)"
is it a night only quest so like no matter how long you wait will it stay night

[slate finch]

Fr , but his boss fight is so annoying definitely the worst part being his human form

[slate finch]

Although its the newest game for the franchise I would say its the best of the 3 , I have played all of them for over 80+ per game , and I can say dltb is the most challenging but more rewarding and fun of the trio , the soundtrack, story and side quest are very good , and the mixture of the best elements from 1 and 2 makes it a good sequel, hope they make it even better in the future

[charred quartz]

Anyone know why I'm only getting the table leg and not the legendary outfit? It's been like 2 days now

[lapis mural]

You probably need to submit a ticket to support if it still hasn’t shown up

[charred quartz]

How do you do that?

[lapis mural]

[charred quartz]

Alr thanks

So I've never made a ticket before what do i put in the requester spot?

[prime breach]

On the scale of 1 to 10 how terrified should I be for the mission one flew over the volatiles nest

[steep dagger]

any idea how much we needed to play during the event to be eligible for the nocturnal phantom outfit?
i played here and there during the event.
i just loaded up the game to check the outfit out but dont see anything.
did i log on too late?

[prime igloo]

That's fair.

[charred quartz]

You good at stealth?

[prime breach]

Kinda

[charred quartz]

Depending on your settings that mission is horrifying

[prime breach]

Probs gonna have to request help after one fail 😂

[charred quartz]

What level are you?

[prime breach]

8

😐

[charred quartz]

rip

What part you on in the quest

[prime breach]

Trying to figure out how to reach the nest

[charred quartz]

So your still outside then?

[prime breach]

Yeah

[lapis mural]

You had to contribute to at least one of the 22 challenges

[charred quartz]

You wanna find a hill/mountain to climb up

[prime breach]

Tryna figure that part out

[charred quartz]

Could find a walk-through and just only watch that part

That way no spoilers

[mellow escarp]

Just try to look where is it point at, then think is there a way to climb

[prime breach]

I think I found a route

[steep dagger]

thoughts i dids?

[charred quartz]

You will know when your in the cavd

[prime breach]

I'm in

[charred quartz]

Welp good luck

[slate finch]

Good luck litte one

[steep dagger]

i shalls check back in tomorrows then

[prime breach]

Should I use a flashlight

[slate finch]

Yes but be smart when you use it tho

[charred quartz]

The game says volatiles see the light but I haven't noticed

[slate finch]

On nightmare they do

[charred quartz]

Just started my nightmare playthrough today

[lapis mural]

They do see your flashlight, if they see your flashlight they’ll follow it back to its source leading to you

[slate finch]

Welcome to hell

[lapis mural]

Human enemies also see your flashlight

[charred quartz]

I'm mad I ain't got the nocturnal outfit so I'm getting the beaver one instead

[slate finch]

Alot faster

[charred quartz]

Yea that happened to me on final mission

[slate finch]

Nightmare about to piss you of so much with the hunger and dmg scaling

[prime breach]

I remember the 1st dying light game I couldn't beat the dlc cuz the volitiles were faster the dune buggy

[charred quartz]

I got like 200 food items

[slate finch]

Not enough

[lapis mural]

I’ve got like 1.5k food

[charred quartz]

I'm bot doing side quest

I just want the beaver

[slate finch]

Oh nvm then I think that should be enough

[slate finch]

Good , very good

[charred quartz]

I'm at the part where I just met the exiles

[slate finch]

Noice

What chimera pissed you off so far?

[charred quartz]

It's always mist

[slate finch]

For me was the mistake knock off

[slate finch]

She is easy to deal , I hate her copy and paste one

[charred quartz]

Matriarch?

[slate finch]

Yes she was annoying

Just running running and when she comes to attack steals 75% of hp

[charred quartz]

Haven't fought her on nightmare yet

But I got a wrench that does 35% more to chimeras

[slate finch]

Good luck , more annoying than the barron

[slate finch]

Noice

Name?

[charred quartz]

It's the one from legend levels

[prime breach]

Ok so I'm finally fighting wraith

[slate finch]

The eltric one?

[prime breach]

I wonder how this is gonna go

[slate finch]

Oh he is piss easy

[charred quartz]

Best chimera design my opinion

[charred quartz]

Yep

[slate finch]

And that too

[charred quartz]

Gives og alpha vibes

[slate finch]

I thought it was bad , well good enough ima use it on new game plus 3

[charred quartz]

Depends on the passives you get on it

[prime breach]

Ah so he's not like a debuffed volatile 😂

[slate finch]

He was scary on my first 2 play times

[charred quartz]

I only use it for chimera bc it's low range

[slate finch]

Nah he is 5x stronger and scarier

But he is eady to deal with after a while

[slate finch]

Fast attack speed and eletric mod

[charred quartz]

Volatiles are easy 1v1 but they swarm so much

[slate finch]

1v1 they die in 3 hits , swarms you die in 3 hits

[prime breach]

Holy shi he turns invisible

[slate finch]

Yes :D

[prime breach]

Waddafuk

[charred quartz]

I don't go out in night on nightmare

[slate finch]

Good luck

[slate finch]

I did , 3x xp is so good

Just kill humans they drop tons of xp

Almost like volatile pre nerf

[charred quartz]

Volatiles only give 250xp?

[slate finch]

Before they gave around 2100

[charred quartz]

Ppl suck I just use a crossbow on them

[prime breach]

Does beast mode like allow you to see the wraith

[charred quartz]

No

[slate finch]

Nop

[prime breach]

Damn

[slate finch]

Waste of ammo , I just unleashed the beast on them

[charred quartz]

He becomes visible

[slate finch]

With uv light

[charred quartz]

Bolts are easy to make

[slate finch]

Im a loot horde

[charred quartz]

Can make like 600 and I only use them on ppl

[slate finch]

I dont like crafting ammo and extras

I see big numbers on items I like them lol

Also your best friend for nightmare bosses is the smg from legend pass , it deals 20% of a chimera hp with one full mag , and 2-3 shots any human , not counting shotgun guy

And smg ammo is very easy to get so abuse that

[charred quartz]

I always do melee on chimera

[prime breach]

Expcalibur II is my trusty sword

[charred quartz]

My favorite sword is a legendary sword you can buy at lvl 11 called the duelist

[prime igloo]

I'm still confused to this day on how the SMG does the same damage as a rifle, a gun that is meant to holder bigger calibre whilst also still being light and simple.

[slate finch]

The rifle is only good for mid to long range , the smg short to mid , but I agree with the dmg part its so weird

Also how does a revolver do more dmg than a shotgun?

[prime igloo]

That also doesn't make sense.

[charred quartz]

The rifle sucks on nightmare, it takes like 15 shots to kill a person

[prime igloo]

Even the Pacifist?

[slate finch]

Ye , but the smg its good

[still trout]

Oh hi crane.

[prime igloo]

Yo.

[charred quartz]

Idk I don't shoot them.

[slate finch]

Yeah I only used end game when I was legend 200

[prime igloo]

It's an iconic AR that does 102 million damage at max legend rank and firearm damage.

[slate finch]

Tomorrow il start new game plus 3 , thankfully on brutal 🙏 , nightmare was a torture

[prime igloo]

Also comes with a reflex sight.

[prime breach]

So after I kill wraith do I need to extend up the rope again to get to the next area

[slate finch]

Nop

[charred quartz]

Oh I forgot about that gun

[prime igloo]

No. You gotta go through the cracks.

[slate finch]

Just look around for

[slate finch]

Yep that

[slate finch]

Pistol is so buns but the inf ammo side quest saves it

[charred quartz]

Inf ammo?

[prime igloo]

After a side quest, you get respawning pistol bullets at Town Hall, next to your bed.

[slate finch]

There's a side quest that gives ammo every time you get back to the town hall , its like 140 Pistol ammo

[charred quartz]

On that quest

[prime igloo]

Yeah.

[charred quartz]

How often does it spawn?

[slate finch]

Its quite useful

[slate finch]

I think its around every 10 irl minutes and you need to be away from the town hall

[austere zenith]

This guy is my favorite just by everything

[prime igloo]

Why thank you, lol.

[charred quartz]

When I did it I only got 50 bullets each time

[austere zenith]

Np

[prime igloo]

Ammo finder. It'll boost it up to 27 pistol rounds EACH.

[slate finch]

Lots of fans dawg , teach me the ways , do I need to become the new dying light main character or something?

[prime igloo]

If max, of course.

[charred quartz]

Oh

[slate finch]

Level up the legend point perk too

[prime igloo]

I don't know. I just somehow got people liking me. I'm not even a YouTuber or whatever, just an ordinary dude.

[slate finch]

Max is 35 on nightmare

[slate finch]

Just a chad crane in the server

[prime igloo]

Just a Crane living in a Crane.

[fast marsh]

Lmfao doesnt the crossbow also do more damage then both? Ik its close

[slate finch]

Just a chat crane that lives in a crane thats a lovely and nice crane

[austere zenith]

Honestly I've tried getting to high legend levels but it's very hard

[prime igloo]

I need to check.

[slate finch]

Nop its like 5 % less

[charred quartz]

Crossbow does so high damage

[slate finch]

Well it is now , before 1.5 it wasn't

You could farm volatile and get like 15 levels per night

Wic ofc was insane

[charred quartz]

At my level crossbow does 60k and a revolver does around 46-50k

[fast marsh]

Okay just close then😅 I dont mind that though I like my crossbow to hit hard

[austere zenith]

I think the first dying light is the hardest in my opinion

[prime breach]

The hive looks gross

[charred quartz]

It's flesh

[slate finch]

Aye dawg , one to the head kill anything but dead island 2 fans

[prime igloo]

I'll tell each gun stats. With the inclusion of Bullseye.

[rare musk]

You are a very chill, ordinary dude

[prime igloo]

I guess so, lol.

[slate finch]

Burger King pattys

[austere zenith]

He is the real crane

[slate finch]

I wouldn't be surprised if the voice actor for crane was here

[austere zenith]

That be cool if he was

[slate finch]

Its always possible

[prime breach]

I just did it

No deaths

Letsss gooooo

[austere zenith]

I could never...

[prime igloo]

Collector's Piece: 124.7 million.
Power of Belief: 103.1 million.
Pacifist: 103.1 million.
Big Game Shotgun: 321.6 million.
Sheriff's Revolver: 402.0 million.
Bullseye: 439.0 million.
Modern Wooden Crossbow: 355.6 million.
Bronze Bow: 101.0 million.

Take note that each are level 300, with all legend skills maxed.

[austere zenith]

Yea this guy might be crane..

[prime breach]

Are you the voice actor for crane

[fast marsh]

So it does do more then the shotgun at least. Wasnt completely wrong 🤣

[prime igloo]

I'm just a Crane on a Crane, talking to fellow Cranes in their Cranes.

[fast marsh]

I dont usually have a revolver in my inv so I wouldnt look at the dmg of that anyways

[prime igloo]

Still makes no sense in all honesty.

Like, shotguns shoot pellets unless it's one big bullet like... a slug, IDK.

[prime breach]

May I get that quest please

[prime igloo]

Precious Cargo.

[prime breach]

If I'm being honest I am kinda disappointed with this game cuz of the parkour availability

[prime igloo]

That's most of our issues, with parkour being more of an afterthought with the map design.

[fast marsh]

Wait speaking of bullseye shouldn't I have the weapon blueprint and the gun? Ive only got the gun in my stash now that i look at it

Looking it up it says I should at least but Google sucks ass latley

[prime igloo]

You get the blueprint once you have the gun in your inventory. Just likely that it's not legendary.

[fast marsh]

😅 yeah thatd be why thank you

[prime igloo]

You're welcome.

[fast marsh]

I never even bothered testing it out I guess

[prime breach]

Like the swedish alps sound cool but like at least let us climb the mountain or something

[prime igloo]

Honestly? I would like to have a bit more urban area for Castor Woods.

[prime breach]

I'm playing on a 65 inch tv

That I bought yesterday for the sole purpose of playing this game in 4k

[fast marsh]

Hopefully hdr doesnt also look like shit for you assuming it also has that lol

[stark dew]

true dedication damn

[fast marsh]

The hdr in this game is really fuckin weird. Havent figured it out at all lol ive gotta turn hdr off during the day and on at night cause otherwise it looks like shit

[stark dew]

really? i think it looks great

[fast marsh]

Yeah lmao its very fuckin headache inducing during the day. Even if I turn the brightness all the way down which just makes it to dark to see

[stark dew]

thats fair enough

[fast marsh]

Ik when I looked it up other ppl were complaining about the same issue so theres something about it. No clue what the conditions are that cause it 🤣

[prime igloo]

I wonder what's are the best guns for nightmare, let alone in general.

[candid perch]

Shotgun does hella damage up close

[bitter mantle]

where do i find the .scr files?

[prime igloo]

Good thing I'm stocked on the ammo. But what else?

[devout horizon]

Needle and Erasure

[copper coral]

is explorer's gear the best armor in the game?

[strong pier]

there is no best. there are different armors for different playstyles etc. and what gear bonus you want

but at the beginning of the game you often have more use for explorer gear

[gleaming edge]

i honestly think we need more gun variety

[jade rain]

has anyone else still not received the call of the beast rewards?

[pallid sapphire]

Is the craftparts percentage a chance thing? Cause some times I’d get 4 rags or 2, not definitive

[strong pier]

some give a higher % chance of getting common/uncommon stuff etc.

[pallid sapphire]

Okay yeah so a chance thing, I’ve got maxed out craftparts in LL so now I understand, thanks

[charred iris]

When will it be released on PS4? Some people would like to play it on PS4, I have that question, when will it be released on that console?

[strong pier]

nobody knows

[sudden hazel]

Soon

I think it's going to be this year

[charred iris]

Soon? There are people who already want to play it, bro. Is there at least no date or anything like that?

[sudden hazel]

No date

Techland has been dead silent about PS4 versions

Originally they said it would be by the end of 2025

[split seal]

I have an issue with the character voices in the game character voices are muffled or not heard at all how can I fix this?

[strong pier]

https://discord.com/channels/289739584546275339/1414506546330603520

[split seal]

thanks

[charred iris]

Okay, I know that, but nothing happened. What if it comes out in February or March or June?

[keen venture]

WE NEED A PS4 version

[charred iris]

Yeah bro, we, maybe some of us want to play it, but the bad thing is we only have a PS4 because we don't have enough money for a PS5. Hopefully it comes out really soon, like in February or March.

[prime breach]

The ending of the game gave me resident evil vibes

[gusty rose]

I havent recieved the epic bundle and last call of the beast rewards yet in my stash

[zinc halo]

Has it been 24 hours since you launched the game after they released the skins?

The process of distributing the skins starts when you launch the game, and that process can take up to 24 hours for all skins, you may in the meantime only see some of the skins.

[icy ermine]

we need a ps6 version

[strong pier]

The 1st playthrough new save on nightmare with "I am legion reborn" Insanity difficulty is now done. 26 hours

[prime igloo]

Not gonna lie, I kinda wanna try a "normal person" challenge on DLTB. Or at least like a basic soldier. Which basically means no parkouring and no Beast Mode. On Nightmare for the hunger as well.

[sudden hazel]

so the last of us

[prime igloo]

Kinda.

At least I ain't playing a remake of a remake of a remake.

[safe pulsar]

What?

[prime igloo]

But yeah, just play DLTB as realistically as possible. No survivor sense, no parkour besides basic jumping and vaulting over small obstacles, no Beast Mode, all that.

[strong pier]

beast mode is not something I use anyway, only in the prologue. and I use a mod that disables all enemies in survivor sense

[prime igloo]

Right. But I just plan on doing it as vanilla. No mods or that stuff. Just the game itself and what I'm given with.

[strong pier]

i play with I am legion reborn mod

[safe pulsar]

I see

[near zodiac]

Hello chat

[prime igloo]

Yo.

[loud crane]

Heyyy, Just checking has everyone gotten the new rewards for the completed challenges?
Just because I've only gotten the knife and the table leg, not the outfit or the car.

[prime igloo]

I have gotten all the rewards, outfit and such.

[loud crane]

Ah, so it might be something on my end then

[strong pier]

Once you log in, the delivery process will start automatically. If you don’t see your rewards right away, try relogging and allow some time - distribution may take up to a day to complete.

[prime igloo]

Either that or they are taking their time. If they still don't arrive, use the support and tell them about it.

[loud crane]

Alright, thanks for the help
🙂

[prime igloo]

You're welcome.

[minor fern]

does anyone have the woodchopper from week 1 of cotb i scrapped mine without knowing i could get a blueprint 💔

[prime igloo]

I know your pain.

[minor fern]

😢

[magic beacon]

i can drop one too you if you are on PC, just doing a new game save and ive got the axe in my stash

[minor fern]

im on PC so i can do it rn

[magic beacon]

Steam yeah?

[minor fern]

yeah

my steam is in the profile

alr accepted

[magic beacon]

Just loading up now

do you need any others cause ive got them all?

[minor fern]

I've got everything except the woodchopper I think

Checked that I was sure aswell

Alr making a lobby now

[magic beacon]

no worries

[late minnow]

Guys is there any requirement for the new legendary reward??

[magic beacon]

any chance i can have the axe itself back? have them all at lvl 1 to give out to people

[sudden hazel]

You had to participate in atleast one challenge of Call Of The Beast

[magic beacon]

Which one?

[minor fern]

alr also turn text chat on in online options

[late minnow]

I did at more then one and there is nothing in the stash

[sudden hazel]

You'll have to wait, maybe it will drop eventually

[late minnow]

Oh alright!

[versed fox]

🥴

[pallid sapphire]

is it pointless to wear the scavenger set now that I’ve maxed out LL craftparts?

Unless the set still helps but not that much so taking it off is fine?

[strong pier]

It's up to you to decide whether you need it or not.

I have scavenger in a loadout, I wear it when I go on a loot round

[pallid sapphire]

same but sometimes I’d forget to switch to a weapon loadout for damage and on nightmare there’s no pause

but the car is a good use for that

[magic horizon]

does anyone here on pc have all of the call of the beast challenge weapons?

for some reason I'm mising like half of them

[unreal bison]

Midmaxin

for all da materials

includinh CANS! which ya need for explosives
