Unfortunately, nothing compels you to brave them.Ĭombat is equally both a plus and minus to the gameplay. Rooms like this are prevalent in a lot of the buildings of Harran.
With games like Mirror’s Edge perfecting this style of gameplay, it’s hard to enjoy Dying Light’s limiting parkour when the formula it tries to emulate is simply exquisite. Maybe you just vaulted a small wall, ran up a building only to run from rooftop to rooftop, only to run out of stamina and not make that jump to the next roof? Or you’re running away from a zombie horde only to be viciously cut down because Kyle Crane, the game’s protagonist, gets winded? That fluid motion is completely torn asunder the minute you have to stop and catch your breath. While I appreciate the developer’s intent on making the game feel real (How many of us could parkour throughout a Turkish city and not get tired?), one of the few high points of the gameplay is when you knock out a great parkouring combo. In a game that is based around fluidity, the gimping nature of running stamina is confusing. However, a lot of the mechanics seem forced, as if only in the game to fulfill a requirement and nothing more. The ability to parkour al la Mirror’s Edge is how the game made itself known at the various trade shows last year. Gameplayĭying Light is sold on the idea of fast, fluid motion. On the off-chance the lip-syncing is on point, it does add a little life to the otherwise dull and blocky models, but more-often than not the robotic way character jaws move with speech is enough to make you focus on just reading the subtitles. All the specialized zombie models are identical so you can easily identify them, which on one hand can be handy, but after a while it can be pretty boring.Ĭharacter models are not the best either, with the facial animations looking stiffer than those on display in Team America: World Police’s puppet actors. The only versions with some variety are the normal, mundane zombies. The zombie models, while various, are uninteresting. Artwork and graffiti on buildings are frequently unfocused and normally don’t fully render till you’re staring at the spot for a few seconds. Textures pop-in frequently, with ledges I’m holding on to looking muddled and pixelated. That isn’t to say the art direction is bad, just poorly realized by the engine’s ability to render the game clearly. The city of Harran – wasteland that decides to render at 20 FPS…if you’re lucky.

In the end, Dying Light looks like a mid-range PC game and doesn’t really push the boundaries of the industry forward.

Normally I am not a stickler for visuals, but if a game is being built on current-gen and PC only (since the last-gen versions of Dying Light were cancelled late last year), you expect an upgrade over previous games. Built on Techland’s proprietary Chrome Engine 6, the game falls short of meeting the benchmarks set visually by other game engines on the market, such as Frostbite 3 or CryEngine. Visualsĭying Light is the first triple-A game to release in 2015.
#Dying light codes july 2021 Patch#
The terror of the Day 1 patch (or in this case, the day 4 patch) struck some players hard, and in the end completely alters the perception of the game experience. Why this wasn’t done before the game released is beyond me, but we live in a day where meeting a release date or having a large title release in a fiscal quarter is more important than making sure the game operates on all platform configurations. According to the patch notes, however, Techland is still working on fixes for better optimizing those running the game with AMD CPUs.
Since the 1.2.1 patch last Friday, those running Intel CPUs and Nvidia cards have experienced higher framerates and less issues with the game’s performance. That’s the majority of my experience in Dying Light, the zombie survival action game by Techland.Īs I stated in my first impressions piece a few days ago, Techland’s zombie parkour game is horribly optimized to certain systems. At this moment, my framerate plummets below 20 and almost immediately I fall to the three zombies, as their experience isn’t being hindered by optimization failures. As I reach the top and look out over the crumbling ruin of a city, the biters arrive and growl a high-pitched, guttural cry. Unfortunately I’ve attracted some of the more nimble infected and they are quickly climbing after me. I quickly jump onto the nearest delivery van and then scale the building next to it in order to get away from the undead horde. As I turn the corner on a market street in Harran, Turkey, zombies turn to face the pounding of my footsteps.
