So this game is all about melee, not shooting?

Mostly yes, it's always been billed as a melee title.

So firmarm is the only way to choose if I want to play shooting instead of melee? Playing melee for a FPS game all the way seems weird, not interested to play this way.

Ouch... damn, that's bad  I'm the same way, I started over from Act 2-Chap1 and just backtracked to re-acquire the missing quests. I didn't end up with as much loot this time either.. and my level dropped from 10 to 3 >_< Still, the game itself is awesome and - after my initial rage - worth playing over again. If it happens AGAIN, however, I'm simply giving up on it.

It's not an FPS. It's a first-person-melee title with a handful of guns and VERY rare ammo (until near the end of the game) It's like Dark Messiah crossed with Farcry crossed with Dead Rising 2

Even you choose to play firearm, you still need to use melee most of the time coz limited weapon and ammo? Well then I'll probably use Xbox360 controller to play it, seems like it'll be better on controller than KB/M since it doesn't need much of aiming.

There's mods (crafting.) for that, even ammunition so you'll manage OK if you scavenge the needed parts.

So let me get this straight: we're supposed to buy games.. and then NOT play them until patches come out, even though the game itself would be running fine? Then, when an unnecessary patch does come out, and wipes progress without ANY notification (show me a single link from Techland stating patch<>save incompatibilities) we're supposed to just accept it? They didn't fix anything! The "patch" didn't fix, it broke, the game. As consolitis said yesterday; Game was working fine, people pissed and moaned about the debug options, Techlands panics, puts out an unnecessary patch that ruins the game for everyone else -- of course I'm fucking angry. It was FINE before the patch.
I told you all NOT to install the patch on your stolen copy of the game and since I was playing this before you got your hands on the RLD copy, I damn well knew what was happening before you did, so to sit here and listen to a fucking pirate lecture me on waiting for a patch just really grinds my gears. Now fuck off.

First "FPS" I'm playing with a 360 gamepad and loving it!
I mean I tried a few over the years and they were significantly worse than playing with a mouse. But I love the analog movement in this one, and it also controls very easily and smoothly. Give it a try if you haven't yet!

Okay, so I'm not promising this will fix the problem for anyone else, nor have I read the entire thread to see if anyone else has posted this solution/a less ghetto solution. However, I've spent the last 5 or so hours playing Dead Island because of it.
Essentially, my Steam copy of Dead Island (as well as the people I'm playing co-op with) developed enormous stuttering after the "patch" to fix the "launch problems." My fraps told me I had a rock-solid 60fps, but it looked like it was running at 30fps. To cut a long story short, I looked all over the internet (after raging) to find a solution, and came across some seemingly CRAZY people who blamed it on their USB keyboards (I know, other games have had this kind of problem).
So I determined that it was only when using the keyboard that the problem surfaced, and tried to solve it. My ghetto-half-ass solution works pretty well, and the stuttering is hardly noticeable/entirely gone on my (and my co-op partners) system. Note that it may not entirely remove it in all situations (it especially looks a bit weird in the starting room in the prologue), and this may not be the same problem that everyone else is having.
It worked for me though.
Workaround/Solution: Open control panel->keyboard properties->turn repeat delay to long and repeat rate to the slowest setting->play Dead Island.

@dezztroy
nevermind. If game have trouble I can easily wait few days to enjoy a full experience. Is that so hard to even try to understand? Are You 10yo that Cou cant even think of my point of view or what?
And sorry. English is not my native language. So excuse fucking me for wrong spelling.
Maybe You want to speak with me in broken polish?

Thanks bud, I'm going to give it a try. The analogue combat idea sounds really fun and, due to the focus on melee, the accuracy of a mouse isn't as paramount as smooth/responsive controls.

Yeah. Watch giantbomb quick look. They said that analog combat is a hell of a difference and makes for much better game experience. Tho it can be enabled only with gamepad

Weren't you the one who "attacked" (for lack of a better word) Sabin for playing the game on release day? And therefore not thinking from his point of view? Hypocrisy, funny how that works.
English isn't my native language either. Doesn't stop me from learning it properly. But that discussion is not for this place.
