lineus Tech tips coverage of PS 2013 is brought to you by Western Digital Intel

00:00:04.600 --> 00:00:10.880
and steel series hey guys we're here with Tim checking out Dying Light and I

00:00:08.840 --> 00:00:14.519
just got to try the day and night playthrough that was pretty insane can

00:00:13.120 --> 00:00:19.600
you tell me exactly what happened in there well Dying Light is a first person

00:00:17.520 --> 00:00:23.840
open world action Survival game with day and night cycle and right here at PX

00:00:21.680 --> 00:00:29.000
Prime we focus on the nighttime part of the game so the game what during the day

00:00:27.279 --> 00:00:33.760
you are the haunted you you have that advantage over zombies that you are that

00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:37.440
intelligent human with a weapon in hand uh during the night the rules change

00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:41.200
because the zombies get more aggressive and uh they get more intelligent they

00:00:39.440 --> 00:00:45.200
can climb on top of things just as good as you they can chase you actively so

00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:50.199
you really have to bring your top notch game to the table and and that's what

00:00:47.440 --> 00:00:54.039
you experienced I think yeah definitely once it became nighttime the game

00:00:52.120 --> 00:00:57.039
evolves essentially one of the main things that I noticed is as you're

00:00:55.120 --> 00:01:00.920
running by the zombies they'll kind of get this little red Glow Explosion thing

00:00:59.559 --> 00:01:04.439
can you EXP expl to me what's going on right there well that's just just just

00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:10.680
to tell you that they evolve so when they evolve they turn into these night

00:01:07.080 --> 00:01:12.520
forms and they night forms well wow

00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:16.240
there are something that you don't really want to meet them in a dark alley

00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:20.560
or in a supermarket or whatever you just don't want to have nothing to do with

00:01:17.759 --> 00:01:23.119
those guys yeah seriously I I felt that you didn't want anything to do with

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:28.720
anything basically at night time just get away and stay in your traps um the

00:01:25.880 --> 00:01:33.000
slogan that you guys have um good night good luck that's

00:01:30.759 --> 00:01:36.399
very yeah he said when it went night time he was like good luck you have to

00:01:34.520 --> 00:01:40.200
get back to your base and it's very applicable there's not too many slogans

00:01:37.960 --> 00:01:44.200
that are that applicable to the game what is your favorite part of this game

00:01:42.399 --> 00:01:48.040
well I think the natural movement system and I we get that from previous people

00:01:46.479 --> 00:01:51.880
like you play the game and they always tell us that hey the natural movement

00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:55.640
system it is something unique it is something that I haven't experienced

00:01:53.240 --> 00:02:00.360
before the fluidity of it that that that like it's very natural to you for you to

00:01:58.600 --> 00:02:03.719
Traverse the environment and we try to give you that freedom of traversing the

00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:07.799
environment so if if you see something that's within your reach that in real

00:02:05.600 --> 00:02:11.560
life you you would really could be able to reach grab and climb on top of it you

00:02:09.959 --> 00:02:18.080
can do it in our game and since you play as this athletic character sper

00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:20.760
specialist uh well you have those such

00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:24.239
such many options that uh it gives you that freedom definitely I noticed

00:02:22.640 --> 00:02:27.959
especially coming from more of a PC background when I touched the controller

00:02:26.160 --> 00:02:31.800
I was automatically out of my element but it wasn't hard to pick up by the end

00:02:30.160 --> 00:02:38.239
of the demo I could tell I was much better than when I first started and um

00:02:34.959 --> 00:02:40.200
some free movement style uh mechanics in

00:02:38.239 --> 00:02:42.920
games can be more handh holdy than others and some of them you just hold

00:02:41.920 --> 00:02:47.720
the button and it kind of does everything for you I liked this one was a little bit more interactive you had to

00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:53.200
kind of decide what you're going to do that was really nice to see um I know

00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:57.400
coming from Dead Island it's it's not the same game so what are the unique

00:02:55.519 --> 00:03:00.680
features of this game do you find well the natural movement of course the day

00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:05.120
and night cycles so these are the two things that really differentiate that

00:03:02.760 --> 00:03:09.519
one from Dead Island but I think that the well that Island really was a very

00:03:07.480 --> 00:03:13.760
basic game very very simple game it was hacken SL game with zombies with first

00:03:11.440 --> 00:03:18.720
person perspective right now we always try to give you these options so you can

00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:21.159
always either fight either run either

00:03:18.720 --> 00:03:25.040
try to be smart about it and use the traps that you just said maybe use some

00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:29.239
gadgets that you have in your inventory like the firecrackers you can throw

00:03:27.239 --> 00:03:34.120
firecrackers at one location and the zombies CR around it for a second so

00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:38.400
that opens up new ways for you so this is a game about Freedom about options

00:03:36.239 --> 00:03:41.760
about and about decisions and I hope that people will make the right

00:03:39.519 --> 00:03:45.920
decisions because because if they if they make a if they make a wrong

00:03:43.519 --> 00:03:49.159
decision then they screwed basically yeah talking about traps and the

00:03:47.720 --> 00:03:52.480
firecrackers and that kind of stuff what are some of the nice interesting Unique

00:03:51.200 --> 00:03:55.720
Mechanics that you have I know there was the the car trap that was probably my

00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:59.480
favorite one what other examples are there like well the car trap as you said

00:03:57.879 --> 00:04:03.120
the car alarm trap is really my favorite as well well what it does when you

00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:06.319
activate it the car alarm goes off and the zombies crowd around the car and

00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:11.959
then the car explodes so they're like flying all around the screen there's

00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:15.239
also this like say light STP light trap

00:04:11.959 --> 00:04:17.199
uh is like the survivors rewire the L

00:04:15.239 --> 00:04:21.919
lamp posts and when you're being chased during the night and you activate that

00:04:19.440 --> 00:04:25.520
that trap the whole intersection is like it's flooded with lights so the zombies

00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:30.320
get disoriented and you get this few precious second to few precious seconds

00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:35.199
to escape so that's to the there there's stuff like that and we have like a few

00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:38.880
dozen of things like like that in our game that's awesome and those few couple

00:04:37.400 --> 00:04:42.680
seconds that he said with the light trap are definitely needed it's not like a

00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:45.880
few couple seconds it's not a big deal it's that's a really big deal how would

00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:49.759
someone go about getting this game and what platforms can they get it on well

00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:55.560
the game comes comes out next year for PC PS3 PS4 Xbox 360 and Xbox one but

00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:59.360
what's what's important is that the whole game can be played in Co-op so uh

00:04:58.039 --> 00:05:04.160
you can play the game in four player co-op from A to Z but it it is drop in

00:05:02.440 --> 00:05:08.039
drop out so you can start the game solo then you play for a couple of hours then

00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:11.000
maybe your friend joins in you play together for a couple of hours but you

00:05:09.479 --> 00:05:14.320
don't have to stick together you're just in the same game world so you can go

00:05:12.840 --> 00:05:18.919
into separate directions you can do different missions and after he drops

00:05:16.320 --> 00:05:23.240
out you just continue solo uh like your main story and also a couple of days ago

00:05:21.080 --> 00:05:28.440
we've announced our new mode B the zombie is a PVP mode for our game so

00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:33.479
that's a mode that allows you to play as a zombie and invite

00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:36.520
in invade other people's games so uh and

00:05:33.479 --> 00:05:38.919
you also get that like special character

00:05:36.520 --> 00:05:42.680
progression systems like set of zombie skills that you build along the way so

00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:46.639
at the end of it you become that ultimate zombie and you can go mess with

00:05:44.919 --> 00:05:50.000
your friends games and that's something that really is cool that would be a lot

00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:54.840
of fun just screwing around with all my friends that's really cool and it's nice to see that you guys have co-op up to

00:05:53.080 --> 00:05:58.199
four players because I've noticed a trend lately is that Co-op isn't that

00:05:56.600 --> 00:06:02.240
big of a thing but a lot of people are looking for it so it's great to see a

00:06:00.280 --> 00:06:05.759
game like this which would work so well with Co-op to actually be implementing

00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:09.360
it thank you for showing us around Dying Light that was great if you want to see

00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:14.160
