Season pass or riptide

[illgot]

I made the mistake of buying the season pass for 40 dollars right before the first episode. What ever, I would not bother purchasing it now. Wait for it to go on sale somewhere or at least find out what you are getting with the season pass before you purchase.

The 1.3 patch for the original added stamina drain for kicks, no big loss. It was rather boring and stupid to be able to endlessly kicking zombies anyway. Drowning zombies felt rather silly as well.

I loved the first game and have put in many hours into it, which is why I pre-ordered riptide. Though it's not unlocking on steam for Europe until tomorrow.

oh ok so it was during the first game, but the drowning zombies was a method i used sometimes to dealt with mobs of zombies.. i havent got far into the game yet but im might try to play it with others to see if it any better.

Buy neither of them yet. Buying a season pass will not offer you any immediate benefits, besides the hat and tier 2 lockbox, while Riptide might be a hit or miss, so better wait a week to see how the reception goes.

I never played the original with other people. First time was with a pirated copy, second time was after a steam sale but I did not want to try coop after "pug" horror stories (including people using hacks that could potentially mess up my own saves). Besides not many play it coop now. I'll try riptide coop though, after playing through it solo once. Drowning zombies were fine in the original but there is alot more water in riptide? Dunno.

worms revolution is goy in my opinion well worth spendiny your money on.

Riptide is supposed to be fairly "meh." If you want that, hold off for a discounted price.

If you want the season pass, wait until they announce the first DLC.

I did not like the first Dead Island. It was a huge let down for me. What I think, get neither for now.

Right now Riptide on pc isn't worth it. It's main bulletpoint feature of coop doesn't work.
