Dead Island 2 players are unhappy with the appearance of zombies in the game: they appear behind the players without warning and scare them.
Like the first game, one of the defining features of Dead Island 2 is that zombies are a force to be reckoned with. Even though you have a ton of tools to cut them into pieces, cubes, crush and burn them, even one of the undead can be enough to destroy the player if they are not careful. And this is without taking into account the fact that they turn into cunning ninjas and appear behind the players.
However, this is exactly what happens to some players. On the Dead Island DeV4der subreddit shared a memein which he expressed his only annoyance with the game – zombies constantly appear behind him, attack out of nowhere and kill by scaring in the process.
Seriously, I just arrived at the hotel and before entering I tried to clear the area in front of it and I’m not kidding, I see zombies, I turn and move back a little – everything looks safe – I turn to attack the zombies and I get kick in the ass! I jumped up and down in fear several times because of this.
He’s not the only one – several other players have responded to this thread to share that they had the same experience, and one said it was “the worst thing in the game”. Not everyone agrees that this is such a problem, some have responded to this thread to defend the game and say that you just need to be attentive to the situation and look back more often.
And it’s not just the zombies spawning behind the player: players have also complained that the respawn timers are generally very fast and that the zombies can fill up the area too quickly. This, combined with the fact that everything is reset when you leave the zone, means that there is very little time to relax in Dead Island 2. Again, some players seem to prefer this over zombie-free zones, but the respawn speed and the random nature of zombie spawns seem to annoy most players.
To be fair, Dead Island 2 tries to explain the appearance of zombies by showing that they come from the sewers (which the player can actually see sometimes) and can rise from the ground, but that doesn’t seem to be enough to stop being annoying.
