![]() The sun comes up, but daylight does not save you in the world of Dying Light. Only this time, I have to try to run around the countryside, at night, avoiding volatiles, to collect car parts and fuel so I can finally make it to the other side of the water line. It is the last thing I hear before the screen wipes, and I try my hand at it all over again. On the other side of the crowd, I hear the cry of more volatiles. Tough luck as there are so many surrounding me, they are all like bullet sponges. The buggy already has attracted more attention from other zombies, so I get out my military rifle. In order to repair it, I have to get out and apply some of the items I have collected to the engine to repair . I peel the volatile off of my buggy, but now my suspension is completely gone. I turn around back towards the road with the volatile’s attacks from the side coming at me. As I mow down wheat and zombies, the volatile catches up and jumps on the side of my buggy. I try speeding off into the fields, but this may have been the worst idea to have. The volatile tries to jump on my vehicle, and I swerve out of the way. As a quick recap for those whom may not remember, the volatiles are night time, fully transformed infected that are super fast and super terrifying. On top of all of this, the volatiles show back up again. Given the lack of gas and some of the poorer working parts, my vehicle is just not fast enough to track down the water main to the end alongside the distractions of trying to navigate at night. Guess whos a well traveled, rugged explore who has a buggy with little gas and some already malfunctioning parts? This guy! Your buggy, while great for mowing zombies, has a shelf life on all of its parts and it needs a gas refill after a certain amount of time as well. Seems easy, right? This is where Dying Light throws in the curveball to keep night time exploration interesting. It is now dark outside, and I need to chase the water main to the other side of the facility to decrease the water pressure before the pipes blow. I get inside the safe house, which is really the water plant in the countryside. Where is the justice for the left-handed batters?! Now, I am a bit of a switch hitter in real life, but in the game, every player is right-handed. I pull out my leftover military rifle and take down a couple more. The other safe house guards are aware of where I am now as the dead bodies have piled up a bit. Enter the buggy, the means by which I made my way to the current destination. In times like these, a man needs a vehicle and Dying Light The Following is not one to leave a man hanging. My character is still rather tricked out as an explorer of the city of Harran, but now in the countryside, my running skills do not have much of an effect on some of these faster zombies that are chasing me with far fewer obstructions in the way. ![]() I grapple over the fence into the safe house area.Ī few unsuspecting enemies meet the other end of my electric charged machete, a holdover from my endgame playtime in Dying Light. Nearby is a field of those who died while infected with the Harran Virus. ![]() Making my way across the country roads outside of Harran, I finally arrive at my destination. Platforms: PC, PS4 (Version Reviewed), Xbox One The Following expansion takes this idea and runs with it to the widest expanses, for better or worse. By Martin Benn 7 years ago Dying Light was a game which greatly combined open world exploration with the perils of humanity in the midst of an environmental outbreak.
