Stealth plays a big part of game since gin fore can attract alot of attention, thats why they have a noise metter as well .g No specific stealth tree but who knows what skills are in those 3 categories
Same here. Imo it's funny when I hear Youtubers during their Let's Play saying "No, not stealth. I'm so bad at it. I hate stealth." while I love it. You need more skills for it, instead of run and gun. I always stealth if it's possible. So yeah, can't wait for Days Gone :D
Yeah, the survival or melee tree should have some stealth skills.
This again..can someone please tell me what AAA open world zombie games that are like Days gone i've missed this gen? Posts in Days gone thread are woefully bad. Waste of talent? I can't stop shaking my head at the ignorance on display in this post. Imagine being a dev at Bend, working on this game for years, and are proud of the work done, then read people just dismiss it like this post?
It's clear what folks are doing in this thread...anyone who consistently uses generic/Bland can safely be ignored as they almost never elaborate on anything. It's lazy nothing criticism when people just want to shit on something the majority of the time.

I added a stealth section to the OP
https://www.resetera.com/threads/everything-you-need-to-know-about-days-gone.94606/
Some of those stealth details seems more pure stealth-focused than a lot of modern stealth games. A noise meter, contextual noise levels based on weather, etc
The only comparable games this gen are State of Decay 2 and Dying Light. And it's been four years since Dying Light. Everything else has been narrative games (TWD), strategy games (They Are Billions), or small indie titles (Death Road To Canada)

Some nice stealth mechanics for an open world game.
Yep there also World War Z but that is co-op focus.
The same way I dislike most online-only multiplayer-only games, I think the people that dislike the Sony 1st party 3rd person single player titles like Uncharted, TLoU, GoW, etc will dislike this one too. For me, it's my jam so I will slather it on my bread and devour it. Hope it's great. Looks up my alley anyway.

They should keep quiet with the newt talks. I feel like they are a perfect target for the outrage crowd to cry about and try to delay the game.
The bike survival elements look like they're going to get annoying. I'll just want to get on the bike and ride but instead I'll be needing to repair the bike, and find fuel for the bike. Not sure how that is fun when you're going to have plenty of other survival elements in the game to worry about as it is. That aside, I still think the game looks really pretty and I think Bend has totally nailed the atmosphere.
I'm just really torn. On one hand I really want to embrace the world of Days Gone, as I love its setting. But on the other, I hate all that survival and crafting nonsense.
Considering that its a survival game that centers around riding a motorcycle its the most logical thing to make the focus of the survival elements besides Deacon himself.
Watching the game informer interview, what one of the leads said was that the survival element is more tied to the bike rather than thing like, hunger management etc.

Its better to have the elements on the bike then the person itself.Besides you can upgrade you bike to take less fuel or damage.
Micromanaging the bike is definitely something I'm not really looking forward to, but it is what it is. Hopefully the upgrades will eventually make the experience conseribly less high maintenance.
At least controlling the bike looks great and according to impressions it feels as such.

The bike management just seems to be a gameplay limiter. If you just have a standard bike you can hop on at any time, it trivializes threats. They had to do something to keep it from being a big trump card for the player. At least as you play through anyway. I'm sure your fully customized bike will be pretty good in the latter portion of the game.
It's crazy, I wasn't really that into this game until I went to Oregon a couple of months ago and got to see some the landscape and some other areas for the first time with my own eyes. Especially out near near the Yachats and it's just beautiful and haunting there, just a very unique area. Endless pine forrests with trees seemingly as tall as skyscrapers, haunting tree tunnel lined streets with mossy pines that will evoke comparisons to middle earth, mountains that reach almost into the ocean. There's just a really rich environment for storytelling and I hope they take advantage of it well.
I think you guys are exaggerating, there are many ways to implement this without being annoying...
Well if it's anything as simple as managing RDR2's horse then cool. I mean, it won't be game breaking or anything, but having to fill tank throughout the game may become annoying if done wrong. Fixing damage as well if parts are hard to come by or are easier to find if you are a heavy explorer, thus punishing those who don't enjoy scavenging every corner.
All this will depend on how they tackle it of course, and I trust they put a lot of thought behind it, but I'm not necessarily in love with the general idea of micromanaging that bike.

It suppose to be an inconvenience something you always have to keep in mind it ups the fear factor as well since if you are not paying attention you can be stranded someone where.
I am find with it since its not a hunger or thirst meter or any of that other stuff.Just have to keep your bike maintain.

Watching that TGS walkthru and I gotta give Bend credit.... takes some balls to legit put kids in the game that you have to kill to survive. Granted they're mutant, freaky-freaker things, but it's still unnerving to watch none the less, especially as a parent.
Seeing these made me go rewatch the first hour Gameinformer video and holyy I did not realize that thing was at 3.5 million views. It's actually their most viewed youtube video, second place was only at 1.8 million views. The thirst is real!
The game YouTube views metrics have been pretty great since announcement. Even the new weekly trailers reach over a mill cumulative in a couple of days.
Yup, it's all about making survival encounters matter, and managing the pacing of the experience. At the start you are given a souped up bike, and then it is taken away from you and you need to build it back up again. The same with Boozer's shotgun, you are given a high power weapon to give you a taste and then it is taken away from you, and you have to build up your arsenal. I like this approach.
Well actually you can choose to fuck over boozer and keep the shotgun at least lmao(I'll be doing just that)
Mad max had a fuel/water management system, that turned out a fun mechanic, but it was more arcade with plenty about to collect for your car for upgrades and stuff. I'm not worried about DG and it seems to be more intrinsic to the core bike /world gameplay.
Oh I thought you could choose, but if you try and keep it, it negatively affects the relationship. Either way him keeping the shotgun.
Guess I'll have to rewatch that part.
Yea once you drop him off at the tower you can leave him with the shotgun or take it with you. He can't use it his arm messed up I'm taking that bad boy 😂😂
OP

Yeah but getting gas was really easy in mad max gas stations seems to have others there actually looking for it lol.
I am not worry about this stuff though I am sure they find the right balance .
No it will have a negative impact
The game has always done rather well in views the first gameplay is over 10 million
