Dead Island Riptide English Patch
Shameka Roessler
Dead Island: Riptide is a 2013 action role-playing game developed by Techland and published by Deep Silver. Released in April 2013 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360, Riptide serves as a continuation of the story of 2011's Dead Island, with the original four survivors, plus a new survivor, arriving on another island in the Banoi archipelago, which has also been overrun by zombies.
Riptide takes place immediately after the ending of Dead Island, with the four immune survivors landing on a military ship after escaping from the prison island. They are immediately taken into custody by the Australian Defence Force Colonel Sam Hardy and Frank Serpo, a civilian VIP.
Passing out from sedatives, the player's character wakes up to find the ship overrun with zombies. Serpo flees via helicopter shortly before the ship crashes into a rock. The immune regain consciousness on the shore of the island of Palanai and are found by Harlow, a WHO researcher, who tells them the zombie infection has spread there as well. Colonel Hardy tells the immune that Serpo's organization is interested in weaponizing the Kuru strain that caused the zombie outbreak.
When the immune find a boat, they are greeted by Serpo again; he freely admits to orchestrating the outbreaks, but offers the immune medical help if they come with him. The immune instead leave him to the zombies and evacuate the island with the five other survivors in their party.
The game's story picks up right where the initial Dead Island left off, with the survivors landing on a military ship after their flight from Banoi. However, they are kept imprisoned inside the ship and experimented on individually. The Heroes thought that they had escaped the terrors of Banoi and survived the approaching apocalypse, but their fate takes a turn for the worst. After meeting John Morgan in the ship, the heroes awake one day to find the ship overrun with zombies. After fighting through the ship, they reach the bridge and deal with The Captain, who is now undead. Colonel Hardy attempts to steer the ship away from the rocks, but it crashes and strands them on Palanai, located still in the Banoi archipelago. Palanai has also been struck by the infection, and the island has been overrun with zombies. The survivors are found on the beach by a woman named Harlow Jordan. She instructs them to head to the survivor camp called Paradise Survival Camp.
As they arrive the camp is under attack by Infected and the Heroes must help defend the camp, building debris to stop the infected for a little while. After the attack the main plan is to reach the city of Henderson to contact the Military for extraction. They head to Halai Village to see if there are any boats available to take to Henderson but the survivors there tell them that all the ships left long ago. They try the road but it is washed out. The only choice left is to take the underground tunnels that the Japanese built in World War II, but they are flooded. They build a water pump to drain the tunnels but they have to defend the area for the noise attracts the undead. Once in the tunnels they must fight through undead and living enemies. As they reach the crossing to Henderson they find the station has been taken over by Convicts so with no choice they have to kill them. Once the ferry has been called the Heroes must defend the station, and once the ferry arrives they must engage the Screamer.
They finally arrive in Henderson only to find the city completely overrun with infected. Even the military base fell to the undead hordes. The Heroes secure the old movie theatre as a base of operations for the time being. The Heroes check out the base to contact the army to extract them, but the only response they get is from Frank Serpo, claiming that the colonel is dead and that he is sending a chopper. As the chopper arrives Serpo tries to trick the Heroes into boarding the chopper so he can leave the normal people behind to die. Not falling for it, Colonel Hardy tries to board so he can leave but is shot by a soldier. As a result of this, Logan shoots the chopper down using a rocket launcher. The chopper crashes at the Old Fort and the heroes go to see if it is salvageable but the chopper is completely destroyed.
They follow a trail of blood to an injured pilot who tells them that Serpo killed one of the pilots to distract the Infected so he could save his own life. After that they find Serpo who tells them that Harlow is a terrorist who was planning on selling the Virus to make "a shit load of money" and that she is in the quarantine zone at the docks. The Heroes break open the quarantine zone gates and rush to the docks where they find all the human survivors dead and Harlow ranting. She says the government unleashed the virus on Palanai to test the lethality of the new bio-weapon they planned on using, and that the immune could never leave or the whole world would end up like Banoi and Palanai.
Harlow injects herself with the mutagen and fights them. The heroes then take a dose of the mutagen to defeat Harlow. After the fight they find a boat and prepare to leave when Serpo enters the room. He pleads for the immune to come with him saying he could cure them from the mutagen. Instead, they leave him to his fate and he is mauled and killed by Infected. As the boat is leaving it is shown that the hospital camp and movie theatre have been overrun by Infected. A Ram busts through the security shutters 6 days later, and a similar boat is seen docking at an unknown island as news reports are saying that Palanai and Banoi are returning to normal. As inhabitants approach the arrived boat, retching and gurgling sounds of zombies can be heard inside the boat, leaving you curious about the current status of our heroes.

Dead Island Riptide takes players to the island of Palanai on the Banoi archipelago, infested with bloodthirsty Zombies and only a few remaining Survivors still fighting for their lives. Introducing new terrifying enemies, deadly weapons, a new playable character and much more, Dead Island Riptide will draw players back into a world that has grown corrupt - with the last rays of hope vanishing in rising tides.
Here's wot I think.
Dead Island: Riptide is some more Dead Island. How much more? About the same again. It gives you another character (and the characters from the original), and plays out the whole silly drama again on the next-door island. After the obligatory linear tutorial bit, which is set on a sinking ship this time, you head off into a tropical paradise full of reanimated rotting cadavers. Videogames!
Dead Island: Riptide carries a mysterious virus that it is tough to cure: boringness. It's a virus that it and its predecessor will no doubt transmit to other games, thanks to being so successful. Game designers will assume that This Is What They Want, and make more of its like. But I've killed a lot of zombies in my time, and this was no highlight in the struggle against the digital dead. I could say this in more flowery ways, and I could spend more time glossing over the bones of it, but in all honesty I feel like there's so much else humankind needs to play. There's so much else you could spend your money on. Yes, zombie slaughter is quite funny, and better with friends, but this game is not enough. Perhaps it never was.
Every facet of Dead Island Riptide is built around killing zombies. The vast array of customizable weapons are all just different animations and speeds of zombie murder. The skills you acquire (most of which are directly lifted from Dead Island) are all about how effectively and violently you re-dead the hordes. Death isn't even a big deal: Just dust yourself off, lose a percentage of your wealth and get back to the killing. Money is slightly less essential this time around as weapons in Riptide, blessedly, degrade more slowly.
I loved modding weapons with blueprints I found across the island; the novelty of a flaming shovel or electrified sledgehammer never really wore off. I just wish components were a bit rarer or less varied, because as it stands, it always felt random whether or not I had the components for a given mod.
As wave after wave of zombies attack, you're forced to rush around your base, repairing electric fences zombies bring down, saving other survivors from attack and, most importantly, making your home undead free. These brief segments are some of the game's most exciting, but they're far from meaty enough to justify a more-or-less full-priced retail release. They also became infinitely less interesting when I realized the best defense was to let ALL the zombies into my base, trigger Fury mode and net myself a tidy XP profit.

There are many different types of zombies in Dead Island Riptide. Walkers, Thugs, Infected, Suiciders, Rams, Floaters, Screamers, and Butchers are the main types. Walkers are your typical zombies but should not be underestimated. Thugs are massive zombies able to hurl you across the room and cause lots of damage. Infected are like Walkers, but they're faster in every way. Suiciders are quite literally walking bombs, and players only have a few seconds to get away after making contact before they explode. Rams are like a deadly combination of Infected and Thugs, but luckily they can't hit you with their arms. Floaters are zombies that can hurl toxic bile at you that is highly flammable. Screamers can temporarily stun you and summon almost every zombie in the area. Finally, there are Butchers, they have blades for hands and can kill the player quickly if they're not careful. Here are some tips and tricks to survive on Palanai.
