Dead Island - All Blueprint Locations and Crafting Guide

Complete Walkthrough/Guide for all crafting blueprints; including all locations, cost, ingredients, effects, etc

Excalibur4612d ago

Now this is a good guide.
I approve.

jriquelme_paraguay4612d ago

Agree...
and.. i am startingg to hate Preorder Bonuses... F*ck U Gamestop...

I really want the arena modes!!!!

But i buy this from Amazon

One-X4612d ago

Very very nice. All we need now is an interactive map with all quest locations and the such (:

BattleTorn4612d ago

check out the Offical DI Map App for Iphones.

Im considering pay the $2.99

Whether you want it or not, the screenshots show the multiple area...

And I thought The Resort was big... wow!

One-X4612d ago

It's a very nice addition don't get me wrong, but it will be available over the internet with a map in the next few days most likely. So It'd feel like a huge waste to buy it.

BattleTorn4612d ago

true. via internet or app. I always like having my Iphone within reach while playing RPGs

This one is fairly detailed, but any online one is going to rip off it anyways.

ElementX4612d ago

People actually use guides? What happened to exploration and trial-and-error?

DarkTower8054612d ago

I don't know about Dead Island, but some games if you miss something in a mission you can't go back for it. I always keep a guide handy for this type of game as a backup.

ElementX4612d ago (Edited 4612d ago )

If it's something game breaking, then that's poor level design. Otherwise I play through a second time and look for things I missed the first play through.

jriquelme_paraguay4612d ago

In Sandbox Games?
Absolutely...
Try to find every Pigeon on GTA4 without a guide..
or the GOlden Rels in LA NOire...

ElementX4611d ago

I suppose if you like to collect everything just for trophies/achievements then it would be helpful. I am personally not a completionist. If I miss a few collectables, it won't affect the story and my enjoyment of the game.

jriquelme_paraguay4611d ago

People actually use guides?
YES
What happened to exploration and trial-and-error?
TROPHY/ACHIEVEMENT WHORES

-Answered- :)

Jobesy4611d ago

@ jriquelme_paraguay, there were guides way before trophies/achievements. I remember using a Nintendo Power guide/map for Zelda on NES.

Getowned4611d ago

is the game worth a buy i was thinking of getting it on ps3

BattleTorn4611d ago

short answer. Yes.

long answer. Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, YES!

RatchetandClank4611d ago

I Know This is off topic but what ever happen to the game ride to hell deep silver were working on.

Dead Island 2 devs believe a Dead Island remake would be a “mistake”

We might be in the age of remasters, but it doesn't look like the Dead Island 2 devs believe remaking the original game is the right move for the series.

but remakes require far less effort for these companies and they can still charge $70 for them!

Feel like everyone makes fun of Skyrim re-releasing like 18 times yet applaud these remasters elsewhere. Would much prefer NEW games

CrimsonWing69403d ago

Making sequels really is the way to go. Otherwise we'll be stuck playing only the first entry, forever!!!

Dead Island's 2011 reveal is still the best game trailer of all time

Josiah Motley of KnowTechie writes: "I love video game trailers. While I don’t believe they are an integral part of a game’s success (especially these days), there’s something about a well-produced trailer that really just reminds me why I like video games."

Also the most misleading of all time

SDuck815d ago

How so? Because it focused on a family that you see dying? (innocent question, haven't gotten a chance to play any Dead Island game yet)

aconnellan815d ago

More the tone of it - the tone of the trailer suggested something personal and dramatic, but the game was very much reminiscent of Left 4 Dead in that you were just there to kill zombies and nothing more

Ashby_JC815d ago

You play as a singular character there is no family involved at all in the game. Still a stand out trailer that I remember clearly from years ago.

Fntastic815d ago (Edited 815d ago )

Did you not like the game?

I remember going in expecting a L4D style of game, but the excessive camera swaying honestly made me feel ill, and it's rare for a game to do that to me, still don't understand why the need for anything other than maybe a subtle slight camera movement when doing melee attacks etc. Other than that i didn't really find the game that good. In all honesty i had more enjoyment out of DNF, and i know many people crap on that game.

BioShockGX814d ago

I still remember this misleading controversy

RickRoland815d ago

It’s the music. It’s perfect. I agree with this for sure, it is well choreographed….unfortunately the game didn’t live up to the trailer.

brewin814d ago

Maybe not, but it was still a good game. I liked how they expanded things with Dying Light, but Dead Island was a great first attempt! I really liked all the Easter eggs and homages to other horror franchises sprinkled throughout. Sure it was a little cheesy and over there top, but it was a good happy medium between Far Cry and Fallout with zombies.

I'm gonna heavily disagree with that.

CrimsonWing69815d ago

Have you ever seen any of the MGS 3 or MGS 4 trailers? Those blow this out of the water for me.

TricksterArrow815d ago

They require prior knowledge of the franchise, tho. You show this trailer to anyone, and I mean ANYONE, and they can understand what's going on and relate to the family dynamic almost immediately. No need to know who is Snake, or Fox Hound, or Raiden, or Metal Gear...

Top 10 Xbox 360 Games That Need to be Backward Compatible

Kevin F. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Many of the best Xbox 360 games are playable on the Xbox One and Series X|S consoles. Some even with some enhanced visuals and performance. Unfortunately, not every game from the Xbox 360 library has received this glorious feat of being able to be played on more modern Microsoft consoles."

Max Payne 3 needs to be on that list.

autobotdan1029d ago

The Spider-man games will never happen. The xbox 360 Marvel Ultimate Alliance games have a better chance of happening than Spider-man titles but won't happen. The Xbox One Ultimate Alliance games delisted years ago

Vits1029d ago

Yeah... you can totally forget about those entries that got delisted because of licensing issues. Those are not happening.

MetalProxy1029d ago

Wait everything isn’t BC? You guys act like it is lol

porkChop1029d ago

Almost all of the games people want to play are BC, and that's a hell of a lot better than having none available.

ApocalypseShadow1028d ago (Edited 1028d ago )

Almost all the games people want to play? Not true. Majority picks screw over the minority who have games collecting dust. Metal is right. Fans make it seem that it's all. 39/997 games from OG Xbox is NOT all. 568/2154 from 360 is NOT all. But you guys play it up like it is.

And from my count, there are 4,000+ PS4 BC games on PS5 that I see. And almost every VR game. Series X has no Kinect games or Kinect 2. But you played that up too. No more dancing.

As for the article, some of the BC games make sense. The others with Spider-Man aren't happening.
