New update changelogs

[Professor Pew]

Hi all,

After some time in testing, a new patch is now available automatically on Steam. Restart Steam if it doesn't auto-update for you.

Changelog Patch v.1.4.1.1.13

[From developer:] Patch solves problems with achievements and contains many other small fixes. The full changelist is as follows:

Fixed freeze if the user spams 'use' button when installing a fence.
Fixed black screen in quarantine when fast traveling from Halai.
Added syncing achievements on profile load from profile to Steam. This fixes situations where player has completed some achievment but Steam did not get info about it.
Fixed Steam achievement registration upon gaining two or more achievements at once.
Fixed problem with not registering collectables for achievements (eg. "Hoarder")
Fixed sudden weather changes
Fixed - Marcus Villa does not trigger any mines and does not take damage from Molotov Cocktails
Fixed black screen game block if movie fails to play.
If the users accepts a game invitation or joins a coop session while in the Hints menu, the menu will remain on screen throughout the loading screen. Selecting any hint resulted in a crash - fixed now.
Repeatable quests exploit fixes - items: CraftPart_ElectronicScrap & CraftPart_Detergent removed from shop offer
HudDialogue: Inputs will be processed during dialog even if hud is not active. Now the player have possibility to skip the speech if subtitles are disabled.
If the user presses "F" (or other key if the use is changed in the Controls menu) and Esc key in a quick succession, he will be let unable to use the Fast Travel from that point due to the fact that the trigger disappears. This issue has been fixed.
MenuInventory: Fixed drop button focus while fists are selected during compare mode.
The user cannot select any hints using the keyboard arrows in the hints menu - fixed.
Explosive/shock throwable knives craft plan - fixed.
Added choice (YesNoDialog) for player if he wants to watch intro movies.
Pressing "back" while aiming sniper rifle caused view corruption - fixed.
Character selection menu speeches play now according to selected voiceover language.
Fixed "singing knife" problem when using knife with "tesla bomb knife mod" and "sticky bomb mod".
Facebook PC initialization modified. This shortens game startup time and may fix some issues with window and cursor behavior including deadlock on white screen.
Fixed double cursor on first game start after reboot. It is probably caused by Steam overlay. In result cursor show counter is always positive and cursor will remain visible
Fixed system cursor staying on screen if switching fullscreen to window after system (re)boot.
Fixed shift, alt and ctrl state not being cleared when Steam overlay is shown.
Fixed possibility to use an unlimited amount of grenades or other items.
Fixed clearing previous item if next item is the same (stackables) resulting in no item equipped in certain situations.
Additional check added for showing gather circles to disable them in single player.
MapPortal: OtherPlayersWaitingPortal message should not be visible if player can't move to waiting place.
Added hiding cursor after game init if it wants to stay visible for some unknown reason.
Picking up weapon when entering fury caused wrong weapon to be used during fury & weapon duplication - fixed.
Enabled instant switching of weapon for not local player object. Fixes issues with thrown weapon appearing in player's hand for a moment before weapon change info gets replicated.
Redundant LevelUp message at start game, or join other player.
Dying when exiting vehicle very close to an obstacle - fixed "limbo state" where no respawn was triggered.
Making sure that during the hub defense, only the spawn points on the roof in Cinema are used.
Zombie should no longer penetrate walls.
AI can't attack if it's close to the target and the target can't be traced. Fixed LoS through walls.
Foliage quality loading properly.
Changed audio bus for collectable tapes (disabled reverb).
Modified volume multiplier and default volume for speeches and player speeches.
Yellow furniture in Sylvia's parent house fixed.
Yellow grate in quarantine fixed.

Just thought id keep updating the fact that its been.... since the game came out.... that i havnt even been able to see a cutscene let alone play the game. I might as well try and get a refund considering i bought this game months ago and still havnt even been able to play it. The sad part is im not the only person who has to deal with this bug, they just refuse to put work into their game. Why make a game if you dont even give a ♥♥♥♥ about it.... Atleast the main menu looked cool when I was actually able to skip the black screen that was the opening video.

Go to the C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\diriptide\Redist\WMF directory. Right click on the exe there (WMFDist11-WindowsXP-X86-ENU.exe, may be different on another operating system) and select run as administrator. Allow it to finish, and that should fix the problem.

I can't change my online settings or connect to Facebook. Had the same problem with Dead Island 1. Tried to connect on DI1 and got the A PROBLEM HAS OCCURED PLEASE TRY AGAIN then whenever I open online settings it's blank with a million popups saying "PLEASE TRY AGAIN". Exact same problem with Dead Island Riptide. Is it just me or do more people have a problem trying to connect to Facebook then never being able to change online settings? I don't like randoms playing in my games
EDIT: Sometimes I die in one hit for no reason. Dunno why

It's called level penalty or critical, yeah enemies do same thing to you as you do to them.

Level penalty? I'm higher level than the zombies that one shot me

I have exact the same Problem with Facebook and the online Settings. This is broken and nobody gives a damn!!.
I am just lucky that i am more like a Singleplayer type of Player.
I am still waiting that they fix the achievement Problems as well. The "finished all Missions" - Trophy is hard to get. i have it InGame but not on Steam !!! WTF ??!!??

So they doing critical, straigth shots at you with more chance when they throw something. This is random. Not all zombies have lower level + even on level 70 you can see zombies on level above your limit for example 76 or 74.

thought you could of atleast put some effort in and fixed the menus not scaling correctly for multihead setups considering the community has already done most of it for you.

you could have done it and claimed it as your own and every one would have praised you for it.

i see you still have not fixed the fov breaking the gun fighting mechanics either.
or sound turning it self off mid game forcing a restart.
or problems with cop op games not syncing correctly and ejecting players preventing them from joining back in untill the game is restarted
or the enemy one hiting a max level charactor with max health
or The mutants / undead / zombies / infectead from killing players in cut scenes.

These are 6 pretty major flaws yet nothing not even a mention if it will be coming in a later patch just nothing.

most of the things you seem to have fixed in this patch seem pretty trivial and you spent so much time on it just for thoses few things.

get some better programers the ones you have are a joke at best.

This game is not making you more customers the last one was a mess and this one is still a mess broken ect.... your not fixing the big problems and your taking a long time to come up with what you have come up with.

It is looking more and more like you released a product once again that was early beta at best we let things like this slide with the 1st game from you for that very reason, this time around we will not be so forgiving.

fix your junk or people will just stop buying your rubish and this is a shame as you actualy have a great sound idea and a great game its just a little broken and yuor taking forever to fix it.

Most of us have already finished 3 playthroughs and have put it away waiting for it to be fixed properly as you have taken solong already.

making your self a bad name once again.

so thats twice now do you think i will buy a 3rd ???

do you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ understand this game was made by small time devs? i promise you they are working on EVERYTHING YOU'RE COMPLAINING ABOUT! so shut the ♥♥♥♥ up and be patient.

Hey man I'll get you a link to a program that fixed my stuttering issue. It actually fixed a lot of things for me, custom FOV, disable graphics stuff (my laptop sucks in specs department) and also raises NPC voice volume
http://www.theplaywrite.com/tools-and-utilities/tweak-visual-settings-controls-and-performance-with-dead-island-riptide-helper/
Just scroll down until you see this "Download the Dead Island: Riptide Helper:
http://downloads.zafehouse.com/deadislandriptidehelper/dirh_latest.zip.

Simply extract it anywhere convenient (it doesn’t have to be your Dead Island: Riptide folder), and run the program."
As it says you download it, extract it, place the green tree icon thing anywhere you want. Make sure you start the Helper thing before Dead Island and click the icon on your taskbar so the menu pops up with all the fixes. In the keyboard and mouse section you'll see something like "Fix micro-stuttering" check that one

[snow]

i'll check it out before deleting the game.

thanks.

Unfortunately I'm still having an issue with my audio. I have a Creative Labs Recon3D Sound Card combined with 5.1 Surround Sound System. It's rather uncommon, but I get an unstoppable crackling/loud groaning sound whenever it begins to rain in the game or when I'm close to a waterfall. When the rain stops, the horrible sound stops, but not when I go near a waterfall. My wife also has this game and is using my 7.1 USB headsets and thankfully she does not experience it. Anyone else having this issue?

On another note, there is a very annoying issue that has bugged me since Dead Island 1. If you are picking up fruit/snacks quickly you are able to pick up more than one, but you do not get the health benefit from picking up more than one, thus wasting the scarce food health item. Is there a plan to fix this?

I've also noticed on rare occasions when the NPC audio is out of sync with the lip syncing. It's not a game-breaker, but a little annoying when it happens. It doesn't seem to have a certain duplication method, it just kind of happens.

Another thing: When it comes to movement, is it normal to appear like I'm moving at varying speeds when simply moving forward? Whether on KB/M or using my gamepad, movement seems a little erractic, like I'm speeding up and slowing down all the time. It is more noticable while sprinting.

Jumping: I'm fairly certain this is not a bug, but the jumping in this game is incredibly annoying. When performing the simplest jump manuevers I will slide off of what ever I am attempting to jump on, especially boxes stacked on top of each other. It's like every character's shoes are slicked with oil.

Oh, just remembered one more: blast radii. The blast radius for normal grenades is insanely large. The damage radius seems normal to me, but I get knocked down when I throw a grenade across the pier, seemingly regardless of how far away I'm standing. Additionally, walls or any other barriers do NOT protect from blast damage regardless of the type. If a suicider decides to explode on the opposite side of a concrete wall it WILL kill you. I would understand if the walls were destructable, but that isn't the case and it's very annoying when trying to use tactics in tight quarters facing a horde of zombies. This issue only happens when you are level with the explosion in question. If you are above or below it and behind a barrier, you are fine.

I love this game to death even though it got a rather distasteful review on nearly every gaming website; it combines my love for FPS melee combat and zombie massacres. I hope TechLand go a long way and wish to see more ideas from them.
