So many people in the comments talking shit. Clearly you're not understanding what this is footage of.

This isn’t even alpha this is what we refer to as indev (in development) footage. Usually alpha has some stage of completion, whereas most of these assets are reuse/placeholder. Clearly in this stage of development they were working on story, map rough drafts, and gameplay loop / mechanics. People are really stupid for judging the game at this stage.
@@iwannab3th3guyyou’re weird, asking a random stranger online for a 70 dollar game for free. I saw your other comments also. You have to be trolling or you’re just a 🚩 in general.
This area is from a later stage of the game and is obviously very unfinished. Earlier areas were further along and looked a lot better than this, so I wonder why they showed this area and not one that was more "done."
Dying Light basically IS Dead Island 2. Dying Light is the true direction the OG devs wanted to take their game, while their producers wanted them to make it more goofy. Though, admittedly I personally LOVE the contrast of zombies infesting a tropical island paradise, I hope someone returns to this setting eventually.
we probably wouldnt have "WHO DO YOU VOODOO BITCH" so im glad it went more silly. So many zombie games out there are too serious you dont have to be serious i mean Dead Rising shows that and people love those games.
Dying light is not dead island 2 since it's not made by techland its a completly different game, it's like saying that cod vanguard is basically bf5, just because techland made a new IP doesn't mean that it's connected with dead island, and Yager, sumo digital and now dambuster studios have nothing to do with the dying light franchise, techland left deep silver so they would have the creative freedom that Warner Bros gave them while working on dying light

We got the better improved version of the game, with more than 30 zombie types to fight against and tons of weapons. The original Dead Island 2 game was no where near the same level as the 2023 release.
As someone who was hyped for this, I'm glad this version got scrapped. The setting is great, but the grit of the first two was part of what made them so good. I'll still play as much as I can of this leak, but I am very glad this build never got released, this is not Dead Island.
@@iwannab3th3guy Alright, stay rude, see how far it gets you. All I did was say I didn't think it felt like Dead Island, and you lashed out at me, whatever man.
Yeah I totally agree with you the dark tone and the grittiness was what kept me playing the two games. So I really hoped they kept that setting for DI2. Just wished they'd fixed all the bloody bugs and upgraded the facial animations in the remastered version though...
It's unevitable that this will be compared to Dying Light 1/2 in every possible way, and although this is obviously an old build and much might change, right now it's not looking good. This game was announced in 2014, here we are in 2021 almost sure that the game won't release this year neither after changing three developing companies. People have been waiting for this for more than half a decade now, they obviously will want a polished and original game. Here's what I think isn't going to work out when comparing this game to the competition: 1. Graphics - I can't really see a big leap in improvement from this build's graphics and the original 2 games. It looks cartoony, and people prefer grittier atmospheres, especially in zombie games. Now, despite Dead Island 1/Riptide having a colorful environment, the atmosphere did look dark and gritty, maybe this will change in the final product. Right now it's miles back from the current AAA games. 2. Gameplay - despite the story being actually rather bland, Dying Light had exceptional gameplay, and the sequel looks to be even more promising. I'm not saying that Dead Island should have parkour (it shouldn't) but I see they have much emphasis on firearms, which takes away much of the fun i had in the first 2 games. 3. Characters - The characters aren't really likeable from what I see. They constantly crack jokes and are overall too much sarcastic. This feels like a parody of Left 4 Dead. As of now, i heard maybe 5 lines of dialogue, all are boring jokes. This will get stale quickly if nothing changes. Dead Island's characters weren't great nor memorable, but they were unique in their own way and weren't overtly sarcastic like these guys. I guess we'll see in a couple years...
It’s been nearly 7 years since the E3 reveal trailer for dead island 2 came out. I was 9 years old when it came out and I played the previous games before
Thinking about how bad this would have been slaughtered if it actually released in 2015 against Dying Light. Cannot believe people are still waiting for this.
@@void7837 Yeah because half the people waiting on it Dead Island 2 especially in 2015 don't/didn't realize Dying Light is made by the people who made Dead Island. Exactly what you said about dl2 compared to dl1 is nowhere near how different Island 2 will feel compared to the first, and it wont just be because of a decades worth of new tech being created between the two but that 4 studios haven't been able to finish Techland's work on Island 2 over 8 years. MOVE ON

I still don't understand why deep silver didn't want techland again as a developer for Dead Island 2, then we would already have part 2 ^^ After all, they developed dying light instead, which was probably the better choice.

Big enough to publish on PC on their own and currently working on what should have been released Dying Light 2. I am sure they can finally tackle Dead Island 2 on their own terms once they finish Dying Light 2.
So aim assuming before announcements it was int dev for a year or so hopefully. You’re telling me an essentially ten year old game still in development; runs better than cyberpunk…..
Ehh, you probably know this by now but ig it’s kinda still cartoonish, but IMO the gameplay looks more gritty by like 30%. It just won’t be the same not in a bad way to the first game I guess.
While i get both perspectives they might want to get away from achepelago like island settings. Opening like a whole contenient would be a dope ideal honestly but have no jdeal how they would fet accross travel constraints and map sizes for something like that.
La verdad cuando vi el trailer tenía esperanzas de que saliera, pero bueno, tal vez en un futuro lo vuelan a sacar, hagan algo mejor, tal vez nunca lo veremos, quien sabe, el tiempo lo dirá todo
I think, people, who make this game played "Borderlands" and "Fortnite" too much, and lost understanding, of what Dead Islad should be about. I hope, final version will have more serious atmosphere. But, anyway - this looks good. PS: As for me - "Dying light" is a true "Dead island 2".
Dying light 1 was nothing like dead island 1.. it had nothing in comparison except for being the same DEV team, and only 1 were. For example, this game is pretty less dark than dead island; i.e: a girl in dead island (spoilers) gets raped by 3 different men, and it was shown in the novel. In dying light, like 6% of the game has jokes in it, which automatically makes it less scary, not a bad thing but bad in comparison. Also, the game has 1 character who’s a badass compared to 4 different choose able ones; and so many other mechanics.. there is no similar thing to these 2 games except for the obvious one which is them being zombie themed.
damn if dead island 2 looked this good 5 years ago just imagine what they could accomplish by putting in the good work today... I eagerly await this game
You can see that you are island 2, if it was going to be a success, it looks good, let's hope it gives us a surprise one day in this generation of consoles, play 5 and xbox series x 👍
I really hope that the game won't come out looking like this, the sound track is HORRIBLE, nothing screams dead island about this. I'm a true die hard DI fan and this is nothing like it. I would like the menu music to stay the same. I loved the creepy soundtrack that the first 2 had.
I hope to god they change the borderlands style level system with the zombies. Hitting them in the head with a high level sword 10 times to kill them just looks so painfully dull. I dont remember a system like that in dead island 1. I mean the early weapons weren't 1 hit kills, but it made sense, they were peices of pipe, and oars. Once you got the high tier weapons like swords, and battleaxes you felt like a badass chopping off heads right and left. Honestly I dont mind a zombie game being colorful, dead rising 2 was one of my favorites. I just despise bullet sponge enemies for literally no reason. Far cry new dawn would have been so much better without that shit.
Have you played first dead island? THAT was good... this didn't looked as a serious game from the beginning,and that's why they left the game,and went to work on Dying Light
Damn that’s ugly. I’m happy it’s on its 3rd developer. Does it even matter if it ever comes out. If you enjoyed any of the dead island games those were all done by tech land. Who is already about to drop dying light sequel and this thing is still in development hell.
It’s slightly better with the dual wielding mechanics and more revitalised combat but the animations are clunky and environment feels quite flushed out
@@inferno009 wow 2 month old comment and that's your response. Mine was glitched but I sorted it. Sadly still crap maybe one day we will get full working game.
seems like it would be fun with friends but it's missing something from the original games. like if it was a kid friendly approach it feels. As weird and dated as the visuals and gameplay quirks DI/Riptide had the definitive made it more pretty to look at without looking kiddy and artificial. this is just eh I can live without this.
Thats the main reason the game went into development hell Deep Silver couldn't find a developer with the right vision for the game. Now dambuster studios have been making this game from scratch since 2019 and it will be a lot closer to the original
The game was never and will never be anything like the original Dead Island without Techland, it's a shame, becuase Dying Light is rubbish compared to Dead Island, and this tech demo is just pure garbage regardless.
Yeah I wouldn't like 92% of FIRST PERSON rpg games. Honestly I can't really remember the video and I don't feel like watching it again, but it was probably some really abrasive health bar above the zombie. If not let me know, but if it was like that then yeah that sounds disgusting to look at in an FPS RPG. Do it like skyrim and put it as UI somewhere if you're going todo that. ARPG games, SideScroller RPG games, 3rd person RPG games can all get away with doing overhead HP bars but from my experience FPS RPG's don't fair well with overhead HP bars and that's my preference.
@@Xport3 its already known that the game is coming either in August/october or march 2023 at the latest, even Deep Silvers parent company said So at an investors conference
looks empty here and looks empty in their trailer like 10 zombies or something dying light 1 and most of all project zomboid would put the horde count to shame

its a great idea, its sunny colorful and less depressing like di1
can you explain how you’re getting any other maps besides the pier working, plus how you’re able to remove all the filter effects ?
The only ones that have been worked out is the sandbox and the pier, there's just no content for the others
The game looks insane now
So, i don't even know any reason to wait for the release, because it is literally dying light reskin
This game looks nothing like dying light plus it was being made by the same devs
Dead island is a rpg version of dying light, both game are great
La verdad cuando vi el trailer tenía esperanzas de que saliera, pero bueno, tal vez en un futuro lo vuelan a sacar, hagan algo mejor, tal vez nunca lo veremos, quien sabe, el tiempo lo dirá todo
I think, people, who make this game played "Borderlands" and "Fortnite" too much, and lost understanding, of what Dead Islad should be about.
I hope, final version will have more serious atmosphere.
But, anyway - this looks good.
PS: As for me - "Dying light" is a true "Dead island 2".
Fortnite wasn't out in 2015.
This is way before fortnite...
Dying light 1 was nothing like dead island 1.. it had nothing in comparison except for being the same DEV team, and only 1 were. For example, this game is pretty less dark than dead island; i.e: a girl in dead island (spoilers) gets raped by 3 different men, and it was shown in the novel. In dying light, like 6% of the game has jokes in it, which automatically makes it less scary, not a bad thing but bad in comparison. Also, the game has 1 character who’s a badass compared to 4 different choose able ones; and so many other mechanics.. there is no similar thing to these 2 games except for the obvious one which is them being zombie themed.

No offence, but according to your logic - all the games in the world has nothing in comparison. Except for being games. )))
If you look on amazon it says the release date is 1 jan 2025
Its called a placeholder date since they cant leave it blank or write tba they put some random date like 12/31/2024 or 1/1/2025
Jesus christ if the place holder is 2025 then I think it's safe to say we shouldn't expect much from dead island 2 anymore.
damn if dead island 2 looked this good 5 years ago just imagine what they could accomplish by putting in the good work today... I eagerly await this game
Just play something else like DL 2
@@gabrielpoupou1479 pal that game literally just came out give me some time to get it
Looks wonderful!
hopefully dambuster won't turn this franchise into another "saints row reboot"
how did you even get this to load? I've got it myself, and can't seem to get it to load without crashing.
Ill help you if you let me know hwere the download is ive looked everywhere for it.
You can see that you are island 2, if it was going to be a success, it looks good, let's hope it gives us a surprise one day in this generation of consoles, play 5 and xbox series x 👍
I really hope that the game won't come out looking like this, the sound track is HORRIBLE, nothing screams dead island about this. I'm a true die hard DI fan and this is nothing like it. I would like the menu music to stay the same. I loved the creepy soundtrack that the first 2 had.
It's a 2015 build from old devs.
It got axed and this is what left before it was cancelled
bro there was no soundtrack in this build other than the random sounds and guitar playing in the background wtf are you talking about
There is a soundtrack WTF are you talking about? Yeah it there isn't people signing and shit but there is still music 😑
looks like a fan made sequel lol
why does this legit look like earth borderlands lol
Postal 4: apocalypse weekend Looking good!
Wow, I'm so glad this isn't the game we got. Generic zombie hero shooter. That wouldn't have been reviewed well at all.
I am curious how different the plot would have been since this is just a vertical slice.
I hope to god they change the borderlands style level system with the zombies. Hitting them in the head with a high level sword 10 times to kill them just looks so painfully dull. I dont remember a system like that in dead island 1. I mean the early weapons weren't 1 hit kills, but it made sense, they were peices of pipe, and oars. Once you got the high tier weapons like swords, and battleaxes you felt like a badass chopping off heads right and left. Honestly I dont mind a zombie game being colorful, dead rising 2 was one of my favorites. I just despise bullet sponge enemies for literally no reason. Far cry new dawn would have been so much better without that shit.
it was literally work in progress of course they weren't going to take 20 shots to the head with a shotgun
This just looks like the pg version of dead island thank fuck this shit was never made
Looks pretty good to me considering this is, at best, an early alpha version of the game.
Have you played first dead island? THAT was good... this didn't looked as a serious game from the beginning,and that's why they left the game,and went to work on Dying Light
@@AlmostCZ techland never worked on dead island 2
Release date Q1/Q2 2024
????????
Another Duke nukem forever.... well get the game broken 13 years later
Nah, how about 2 years after you made the comment. Also, lighten up, buddy. You probably weren’t even born when duke nukem forever was announced, lol.
Well… oh at least we have something
Can't catch up anymore,do u?
Looks better then cyber punk :^)
Not too much to say.
exactly
When was this actually shown?
It was part of a playable demo at EGX (Eurogamer Expo) 2015.
@@expresso4897 and where can i find this? :)
Looks pretty Borderlands-ish, i hope we actually get this game one day
Damn that’s ugly. I’m happy it’s on its 3rd developer. Does it even matter if it ever comes out. If you enjoyed any of the dead island games those were all done by tech land. Who is already about to drop dying light sequel and this thing is still in development hell.
the development has been going on pretty well since 2019 when they rebooted the game
It’s slightly better with the dual wielding mechanics and more revitalised combat but the animations are clunky and environment feels quite flushed out
How did you get it looking good mine sucks and can't find settings cheers
Sarcasm?
@@inferno009 wow 2 month old comment and that's your response. Mine was glitched but I sorted it. Sadly still crap maybe one day we will get full working game.
@@inactivechannel6365 there's plenty out there google it. However I really would not bother. It's interesting but completely not worth it.
@@inactivechannel6365 it's there just searched.. You need too dig a little cause links get removed. Search dead island 2 yager build.
@@inactivechannel6365 no worries. I'm just chilling with hyphonix 👌 glad you sorted it
seems like it would be fun with friends but it's missing something from the original games.
like if it was a kid friendly approach it feels. As weird and dated as the visuals and gameplay quirks DI/Riptide had the definitive made it more pretty to look at without looking kiddy and artificial.
this is just eh I can live without this.
Thats the main reason the game went into development hell Deep Silver couldn't find a developer with the right vision for the game. Now dambuster studios have been making this game from scratch since 2019 and it will be a lot closer to the original
could someone help me find a download link for this please? thank you
@Bababooey69 Lol uh, considering this was leaked on 4chan in June and that I can download it on the pirate bay right now? yes
@Bababooey69 Lol This is a leaked 2015 version
B to reload??
Man it's not the same like the first dead island and riptide😔
wow this is really very cool
This can't be California there was more than 5 rounds in that magazine 🤔 lol
I hope they Will add a detail like this in the final game lmao
This looks fun I'd play it rn of they released it today
we're never seeing this game
were seeing it at gamescom though

@@void7837 I was making the joke that it looked like a dead island fortnite hence the mention of epic games
Parece que os zumbis são de rocha no 1 você cortava eles inteiro
Looks fun
The game was never and will never be anything like the original Dead Island without Techland, it's a shame, becuase Dying Light is rubbish compared to Dead Island, and this tech demo is just pure garbage regardless.
I want this just give me this anything
If it doesnt have analogue controls it isnt dead island
Honestly having an HP bar for the zombie is disgusting ngl
I guess you wouldn’t like 92% of RPG games, then.
Yeah I wouldn't like 92% of FIRST PERSON rpg games. Honestly I can't really remember the video and I don't feel like watching it again, but it was probably some really abrasive health bar above the zombie. If not let me know, but if it was like that then yeah that sounds disgusting to look at in an FPS RPG. Do it like skyrim and put it as UI somewhere if you're going todo that. ARPG games, SideScroller RPG games, 3rd person RPG games can all get away with doing overhead HP bars but from my experience FPS RPG's don't fair well with overhead HP bars and that's my preference.

What did you expect from an abandoned work in progress dev build of the game from 2015?
This game has nothing on dying light 2 which is coming soon!
Y'all please just give it a rest 😪
this isnt dead island even in the slightest
that's why it got rebooted in 2019
Lol at least this was going to be open world but now its not embarrassing 🤦♂️

8 years After trailer 😂 where IS the game OMG
its getting revealed in 3 days at gamescom with a february 3rd release date
This cant be real

Something went wrong we see now corona..... XD
looks empty here and looks empty in their trailer like 10 zombies or something
dying light 1 and most of all project zomboid would put the horde count to shame
