Devs could you change this?
I've noticed the kick is doing hardly any damage and seems to be regenerating zombies stamina almost instantly? for instance if I knock a zombie to the floor, they've got hardly any health so rather than using up durability in the weapon and the ground stomp icon hadn't popped up, I use a small kick, but they instantly regain stamina and are able to get back up quickly, even for shamblers. It takes the immersion out of the game.
Plus could you add a way of quick depositing into the storage? or even a way to sell items from storage? Often i'm needing to completely empty my inventory to sell from my storage and then running back and forth from storage to trader. I'm sure there was something like this in the previous games?

enjoying the game so far, but these are the small things that are slowing the game down for me :)
Keep on slayin!

Think kick as more of an interrupt than for dealing damage.

oh i know, just very annoying when zombie is on like a slither of health and it takes 4-5 small kicks to actually take it out, mostly end up doing the drop kick and using half my stamina instead

they make plenty of money through selling games?? Are you saying they fixed this issue with a skill card in the DLC rather than actually patching it into the main game??

They instantly regain Stamina as well if you hit them with a Weapon or a Gun so it has nothing to do with the kick Ability.

You can kit yourself with cards that massively increase the jump/slide kick. I can kill lowbie zombies in one jump kick, it's actually pretty entertaining as you run around to just launch them in slow motion.

Oh I know, I've had the jump kick card enabled since unlocking it, very helpful just 1shoting shamblers and some walkers, just takes half the stamina away. Just completed the side mission where you have to yeet 14 zombies off of the pier...absolute nightmare even with the slide and jump kick cards on 😂 they kept falling just short of the side or dying before being counted as yeeted over 🫠

My point being the interrupting kick, I swear in the previous games did more damage than this game and realistically would, and seems to be possibly bugged with the zombies instantly regaining stamina and instantly being able to get back up. 🤷🏻‍♀️
I was curious to see if the devs would reply and confirm it is a bug, or a feature 😂.

I was just joking m'lady: making fun of their obvious greed.

In this game the kick ability is mainly a "get off me bro" ability. It stops enemies from attacking you head-on for a brief period (unless they're an Apex).

It also acts as a debuff later in the game as your charged jump kicks have varying effect cards.

This is random, but it would be pretty cool if unarmed were actually a viable thing. The ability to make the basic kick do a ton of damage, and to take out big heavies with the jump/slide kick, and use your fists would be fun. Maybe in Dead Island 3 lol

I suppose the fury mode Is the unarmed thing in a way? though not tried to do a jump kick while in fury mode yet so...could be?
I can't wait to see where they go next with the dead island franchise...perhaps to VR in the future? :steamhappy:
