i loved dead island as well, but dying light was much better. Hard mode was ok for me, didn't notice anything strange about it, but I never played any other version, as I waited specifically for hard mode to start playing.

After Twitter user c0mpl3x1ty had a few drinks, they booted up Techland’s open world zombie game, Dying Light. An electrical engineer by day, they noticed a problem: there should be no way for the city to generate power. It’s all wrong! But when I contacted Techland, they revealed a huge secret about the game.
Because c0mpl3x1ty know how power grids are supposed to work in real-life, this got under their skin; the Twitter rant went on for nearly 30 minutes.
“I admit that I got kinda drunk,” c0mpl3x1ty told me over email.
"Where’s the power coming from?” they said. “It doesn’t appear to be generated anywhere. No dams, no natural gas, no coal, no nuclear, nothing. Maybe they’ll get into that later in the game but it probably won’t. If I had to guess, that big substation will for some reason power the whole city or whatever, but that’s not how substations work. Substations move power, either stepping it up or stepping it down. Hence, transformers. They step it up to the BIG power lines, or step it DOWN to little power lines. The point is, they don’t generate power."
............
“The only thing more horrifying than the zombies in the game is the NERC [North American Electric Reliability Corporation] violations at these substations,” they said. “Granted, the game probably doesn’t take place in North America, but even in Brazil, they have high safety standards regarding their electrical grid because if they don’t, people DIE. If I saw one of those giant switches at a sub that looks like something out of Frankenstein’s lab, I’d shut the power down and dismantle the whole substation myself.”
|
Well... Techland replied;
| Quote: |
"Ok the cat is out the bag. Yeah it’s true, our electrical systems break conventional design. But when you’re stuck in a zombie outbreak you’re going to have to adapt and therefore bypass certain “rules”. The people of Harran had to apply a really resourceful design which required the existing infrastructure to be tweaked. That’s why when you look at the current electrical setup in Harran things appear “wrong”.
We didn't want this ground-breaking design out in the public before we could patent it, but your interest has shown us that electrical engineering world as a whole needs to know there are other ways to generate electricity despite “conventional knowledge”. Feel free to share this with your fellow engineers."

By the way, have they finished with this game or is there still content to be released? I have yet to play it, but I'd rather do it when it's actually complete.

Massive expansion pack coming "When It's Done©", but the base game is done as far as I'm aware. Well worth playing too ^_^

More than a year to release a DLC. It better be fucking good. Oh well there's enough games to play at the moment anyway. If it has the same boring writing and story I can't be bothered anyway.

Well, chances are that the story isn't gonna be Pulitzer prize-worthy this time around, either; so better not hold your breath.

actually i think not in this case. you can buy it separately - if you have both games, new weapons and enemies also are added to main game though.

| Quote: | Dying Light's The Following DLC has grown so big the developer will now charge extra for it.
The Following is large enough that it could be released as a standalone game, Techland said in a statement issued this afternoon.
But doing so would mean a delay in getting the new content on sale. So it is staying as a DLC - albeit one that is now more expensive.
The UK price has risen to £15.99 - the previous price of the game's Season Pass. Previously, the DLC was announced with a US price of $14.99, equivalent to £9.99.
Dying Light's Season Pass is now being raised to £23.99 as a result, up from £15.99.
However, the price changes will not be applied until 8th December - meaning there's still two weeks to nab the Season Pass at its old price.
Techland is yet to nail down a final release date for the DLC, though it mentioned today that it is now in the "polishing period". The add-on is coming soon then, hopefully. |

To me this looks, like the devs had no fucking clue what they even wanted to put into the Season Pass. Instead they just went with the flow of every other company and put out a Season Pass just because.
