It's not terrible. I bought it 2 days ago. If you liked the first Dead Island game you'll like this one. It's pretty much the same except with new weapons, new character, new zombies, new skills, different menu layout and a new map. And it's alot less buggy than the first one.
Wrong on almost all parts.
1. Yes, it's basically the same game as the first one which makes it boring as we've already seen it.
2. 90 % of the weapons if not 100 % are the same ones as in the first.
3. There's 1 new character, and hes not even good.
4. Yes, there are some new zombies like the wrestler and the grenadier, but 90% of the common zombies has the same skin as in the first one.
5. No new skills as far as I can see.
6. No new layout, they only changed the color.
7. New map, Yes. But it's allot more boring and It feels basically like a re-skin of the first one.
8. Hellno, less buggy? What mod did you put on it..?
I loved the first one, I really did but this new one don't cut it for me. 80 % of the game is a port of the first one, 10 % is new and the other 10 % is just re-skinned shit. It's allot more buggy and don't run nearly as smooth as the first one did. The took a step backwards with this series rather than forward.
I played though it one time, but that's it. I'd give the game a 3/6 score.
