GC 12: Dead Island: Riptide - Interview

Deep Silver's Vincent Kummer gives us an introduction to the sequel to the popular tropical zombie paradise of Dead Island.

[MrSouthvalley]

yes there will be another charater but they also said that the new one is gonna help u get thru the game is what i heard in the last interview

[mohak]

like for real imma thumbs up that guy thats on top put split screen you have until april 26 2013 to put split-screen if black ops 2 can have can have regular mutiplayer and zombie mutliplayer and split-screen for zombies they put all that on one disc its like having two games in one come one if they could do all that in 1 year. dead island i think you guys could and should put split screen don't let me regret buying the collectors edition.

[Shruikan]

Kind of defeats the point of it being an island tho =P

[maxgame]

Guns and ammo better be more abundant...

[morganwicklund]

Honestly, if you knew the correct way to use guns they aren't useless. try holding multiple guns to have more ammo. Just drop the useless ones when they're out of ammo but don't drop your strongest gun. In the end you have more ammo and also... try playing as the character.. MEANT to use firearms.

[DrPerki]

The game would be SO MUCH BETTER with split screen co-op. SO MUCH. I would take two to three points off of a rating just for the lack of split screen. You can't make a game based around playing with multiple players then restrict how to do it.

[alexleyva]

Agreed would love to have character modles to actually have facial expressions, the voice acting is great. I'd like a split screen multiplayer so I could play with my brothers, or friends. Anxious for a release date

[skeletus]

The 1st dead island "open world" was a joke. It was far too linear due too having a shitty quest system. I really hope they worked on that more then this guy lets off.

[kevinquevedo]

about the transforming thing im in level 60 so i cant get any of the new skills but in my old profile have awesome guns dont know what img gonna do

[welcometotacobell]

this isnt dead island 2, they said that when they first announced it dead island 2 is gonna be called dead world, they already trademarked the name

[slybluesly]

please add split screen so that me and my freinds can play since i dont have live and tons of others dont either so please add split screen

[Krenisphia]

I'm hoping they will fix most of the bugs/glitches and put more effort into the story this time. Dead Island has great potential.

[xrivalizeroblox]

2 things to ask what happens to kevin the prison guy and do we keep the stuff if we played the first one

[TIGMAN]

I think its a great game I didn't like the playable charictors though I couldn't relate with any of them.

[Sheldor]

it was purple in the original game but it was a dark purple, they just brightened the color on this one

[akika]

Please!!! Please remove leveling up for weapons! I mean there is no point to that! PLEASE ITS ANNOYING!

[phantastic]

I hope they fix all those bugs they had on pc, they need to work on this game hard to make it good

[Stroija]

I wish Dead Island Riptide has multiplayer so that you can play it with friends on one console.

[HellDancer]

split screen requires double the hardware power since it has to render two people's perspectives at the same time... in most modern games things will only render when the player is looking at them, so I doubt that'll be possible unfortunately :( and bots are a good idea, but since the game isn't linear it'll be hard to program AI that's dynamic enough to cope with the different situations of an open-world game... especially one like this
