The console versions unlock at midnight in whatever county you are.
Like every other AAA video game in like the last decade.
Dipped back in after the patch on XSX and didn't run into any more graphical issues. People were not kidding about the tutorial though, every time I think I'm about to get some autonomy in where I go, the game add a new wrinkle that you have to take care of first. My brain is also having trouble getting into the rhythm of the melee combat - but I'm sure I'll get there. The parkour remains just as fun as ever though!
The small print literally says "On consoles, the game will release in each region at midnight local time."
I mean, I don't want to sound rude or anything 😅 but isn't that just common knowledge and like literally every single big console game releases since at least PS4 and One era? 😅
I know global console releases got bigger for smaller games in the last 2 years, especially when a game releases on Game Pass.... (Always annoying) But the general rule is, if a game is big enough to have a retail version, it's releasing midnight digitally in your country.
It's great so far. I thought I will hate the change of almost empty streets on day and zombies out there at night, but the idea, how and why this is a thing and how it affects yourself at night works so great, in the game world, I'm super digging that. So far I also like the story and characters and how straight forward and cinematic the main missions are, it's good. (Main character is weak tho)
Killing zombies feels a bit weaker and not as special as with the first one unfortunately, cause the heaviness and realism of the bodies and physic are kinda missing, 3 steps backwards and it feels like you're hitting Mannequins, that's a bit disappointing, but overall it's still Dying Light. If you loved the first one you will like or love this too.
I recommend the IGN review, besides the heavy focus on bugs which most likely won't be affecting you, cause it seems they were just very unlucky with some of them, also pre D1 patch, their overall view on the game and positive points are pretty strong here, it's a very good look at the postive and negative things of the game.
Nah it's not rude.
Just didn't think about it and when I saw 7pm est I was like cool.
I just think it's a dumb thing especially if the PC version unlocks 5 hours before hand.
Witcher 3 unlocked early on Digital irrc on ps4.
Anyway, no big deal. Just thought it was an exception to a very normal rule like you said
pretty much what every individual on Kinda Funny said. great game up until the absolute shit show ending. The only thing keeping me from pulling the trigger on this...
It's very obvious that they rebooted the narrative and tried to do something in a very short time
On Steam the day one patch isn't downloaded yet. It's sitting there but says it's waiting for game release. 29.9GB
Edit: actually it looks like it is downloaded, just not applied yet.
I think it sticks the install in an encrypted "temp" folder, then literally shifts it to the correct directory upon unlock time.
Mine is also sitting on 29.9GB "app not released"
Just about 8.5 hours running around jumping from rooftop to rooftop now and just had my first annoying bug. Oddly it was an audio bug. All of a sudden sounded like the in game audio decided it would much rather forsake all effects and music and just pretend it was a pair of electric clippers instead. Very loud. Very startling XD
Just closed the game and reopened it and it sorted itself out, but it was more startling than the zombies.

I hate reading buzzkill shit like this when the game has been out for 9 minutes. Flargh
They have two tactics. Run directly at you or walk backwards away from you in a blocking stance.
Is there any previews or opinions on how multi-player is? I might get it on ps5 if that's something that's actually fun.
i started, made some video adjustments, then restarted and steam said there was an update. updated and in game says v 1.0.3. so it seems like it is.
I restarted a couple times and the game did a update. May want to restart after you load up first time.
Btw using those DF settings on my 2080ti is holding around 60fps...a few dips here and there but I'm happy at 1440.
Screaming as in your computer fans are going nuts trying to run the game, or the game is performing very well on your rig.
Is mouse rebindings to mouse 4/5 broken for anyone? Tried switch something to mouse 4 and the game locked up until i hit escape. Then the key shows as mouse 4 and a bunch of other numbers. Then when trying to see and come back, it reset the binding back to middle mouse button default.
