    Don't believe the hype, this game is crappy and pretty mediocre, could have been much better if they improved the mission system, the path finding system, the ammo creation and the characters . The path finding is horrible. I ran into missions where you have to go the pharmacy for the gunsmith and the map shows that the pharmacy is the place where you are standing at but there are no waysDon't believe the hype, this game is crappy and pretty mediocre, could have been much better if they improved the mission system, the path finding system, the ammo creation and the characters . The path finding is horrible. I ran into missions where you have to go the pharmacy for the gunsmith and the map shows that the pharmacy is the place where you are standing at but there are no ways to get in it, this shows you how lazy the developers are. Would it have killed the game developers have a hint or something to the locale of the actual opening where you can get into the pharmacy?

    Even when you completed missions, you have to look everywhere in the apartment building and there is no indicator where the mission giver is, no audio clue, no nothing so you might have to go around from 19th floor, 20th floor to 1st floor, the game doesn't tell you where you are. It's utterly frustrating.

    Later in the game you get a chance to craft a lot of arrows, etc but you cannot craft bullets? Really, this is stupid on the game designer decision, the fastest way to kill a zombie is pretty much a shot to the head but no, you cannot craft them at all, even though you can craft other weapons. And whose idea was it to be allow you to able to carry 15 guns and only have 40 ammo? This is utterly the stupidest decision I ever seen, every other games would only allow you inventory spots for as many ammo that you're carrying, like in Resident Evil, you have 50 bullets per slot and one gun slot, that could've easily be done here but no, this is just laziness on part of the developer.

    Overall, Dying Light is pretty crappy due to its major problems and that won't be fixed anytime soon, I doubt I will play Dying Light 2 unless the developer fix all of the problems in Dying Light.

    Это какой-то кусок блевотины, а не игра. Взял только из-за коопа, но он до омерзения кривой. Кто решил, что сменить все кнопки управления в рандомном порядке будет хорошей идеей? Оружие выдерживает пару ударов. Меню уродливые. Противники неинтересные. Озвучка плохая. Сюжет унылый. Самая бессмысленная трата в моей жизни.Это какой-то кусок блевотины, а не игра.

    Stupid delevel system from the 90s, poor control that only does what you want 90% of the time

    I reviewed this game once
    Gave it a 6 Has decent combat, good running, bad story, boring loot. I played this and the dlc in 2 player coop the whole time.
    The Following DLC really sucks though It brings the whole game down, the story in this one is even worse and depending on your ending contradicts the main game. Plus once you make a choice you can’t go back and see the other ending which

    The Following DLC really sucks though
    It brings the whole game down, the story in this one is even worse and depending on your ending contradicts the main game. Plus once you make a choice you can’t go back and see the other ending which also sucks and has a really terrible final boss fight. You also can’t do the final sequence in coop.

    The open world sucks, there is a huge deemphasis on parkour in this dlc since you get car and have to constantly drive across a huge map in this one with no fast travel and constantly have to repair and fuel your car with loot. Out of loot you walk which normally would be fine but this isn’t a city it’s a country side that is mostly long roads and open fields. The car can be fun to drive at times but after the first few missions it gets old really fast. Also you have to do side missions all over the map to get through the story. Over all this is just way less fun than the main game and offers an awful end to an already bad story.

    Remember when you mindlessly ran over throngs of pedestrians on GTA ‘just because’? Now you can do that with zombies.

    A DLC that has all rights to be considered a proper expansion, The Following adds so much to Dying Light that it almost feel like a proper standalone game. This is a great example of how DLC should be made - with new map, incredibly fun addition of vehicles and even improving upon the familiar gameplay.

    Dying Light: The Following Enhanced Edition is an excellent package from Techland. It’s filled with content, and will keep any enthusiast of the zombie genre hooked for a good, long time.
