Balancing and thematic issues aside, DL2's gun animations and sound design are actually really damn good and I'm happy that's the case. They pretty much eclipse DL1's animations and sounds in every way for me. But what do you think? Are you happy with the gun animations in DL2? Or do you still prefer DL1s?

One thing you can't take away from DL2 is that they did not fucking slack on the animations. Sure, sometimes they mess a bit with the flow, like they did with parkour, but they are fucking pristine. Gawd damn.

I can’t even imagine how terrifying it must be for the residents of Villedor. Years without guns, just for some parkour boi to arrive from outside the walls and suddenly start mag dumping

I like that Crane reloads faster than Aiden, it shows that he has more experience with guns and also makes narrative sense since he's an undercover agent.

damn cod 2019 really change​ gun animation forever huh

In DL1, a small detail is how the heat around the immediate air around gun’s end point heats up, just like in real life. DL2 guns sound good, but I hope it had that too.

Even though i never wanted proper guns and would rather have scrap guns made by the smart twins, i still was hoping they'd have the double barrel shotty in DL2 in the update, but it'll probably come later

im happy that DL1 is still alive and gettinbg updated and played by people.The Community is great

I love DL 1....like when you make a loud noise, the zombie scream......that scares the shit out me still today...

DL2 is finally starting to live up to some of the hype, it's just such a shame that it had to happen this late

DL2 Guns are so Much better, animations are great. And they depend on if Your gun is totally empty Or not, amazing.

Bro the rifle looks GIGANTIC In Aiden’s hands, ion know if that’s just me tho

I wish there was a button or toggle of some sort that would let you stow or equip weapons to your hand while you run, because the run animations for the guns in DL2 are freaking awesome, the pistol specifically.

Yeah the animations themselves are actually a lot better than 1. Props to techland for making the best of a pretty tough decision. Mostly the balancing issues that can hopefully be ironed out some way or another. Thematically I hope we can get some makeshift stuff too, maybe have a faction of people trying to make guns idk.

overall better in every way, but 1 small detail i noticed. When firing consecutive shots in DL1 the barrel/nozzel heats up emmitting heat distortions. That detail is missing except for the very brief amount shown in the muzzle flash in DL2. That's a nitpick though.

DAMN, techland did a surprisingly good job with these animations and sfx!

There is one detail in the second part, namely that Aiden does not keep his finger on the trigger all the time, like Crane, but removes it, for example, during reloading and cocking, and does it correctly, unlike Crane, who always keeps his finger on the trigger, although there is a GRE agent

Wow, the shotgun comparison is the best showcase here. they did everything right on the new one; beefier sound, correct aim, and better reload animation. Man, I'm actually getting a bit tempted to dive into DL2 now.

Have you tried shooting the guns with the parkour slow motion skill? Its pretty cool.

Dl2 is better in my opinion

As someone who pre ordered this game, guns in villidor feels so surreal

I couldn't tell in 2 but in DL1 you can see the heat wave on the gun.

I really love the animation of the dispersion in each gun in DL2, you can really feel theirs power. Not to mention the shotgun reload animation, which is actually epic.

Wild you got everything already. I've only just done the quest for a free pistol

Alright, I think we need more variants of the same categories but with noticeable quirks to diffferentiate them. The Hunting shotgun could return with larger capacity, slightly higher damage and tighter spread but with the added manual pump. The Rust AK should return as a normal AK that kicks a lot more but does higher damage. The suppressed pistol could make a return with a much rarer ammo. I want to see an actual machine gun or a grenade launcher but it doesn't fit Dying Light as a whole but who knows, Aiden doing gun-kata with an M249 would be sick.

Devs were really proud of that Chromatic Aberration garbo effect werent they? Even the title is all chromed the hell out. LMAO!

If the survivor missions are glitches switch your settings to single player and it fixes the problem. Co-op currently broken for the missions

Well I’ll be damned they actually made 2 separate animations for when the gun is completely empty or not 😭 sucks though because you can’t get 1 extra bullet so it doesn’t really make sense. But that’s just me nitpicking and making a mountain out of an anthill.

DL2 gun sounds are amazing and the flash from the gun is a great detail, however the only thing they're missing is the heat from the end of the barrel and the viral alert noise

they do be re-using the old gun models and re-render + re-animated it and even makes it look even newer and cleaner than the first game when its 15 years later 💀

They really did the animations very well, also the weapons dont feel less handled like in dl1

Hopefully tolga n fatin will provide us with new gun models with attachments or features (i doubt that)😂

Eyyy i'am early, nice vid btw love your work aussie

Only thing is that some of the parts of the gun and stuff that moved in the first game were more satisfying, if only because it was slow enough to actually see the movement.

Dead Island 2 did Guns better the same way that Dying Light 2 did.

As divisive adding guns to DL2 Its good to see techland didn’t just port over the guns from DL1 as is and polished them to look and feel good to use, I thought they would slack on a feature that wasn’t even intended from the beginning and it’s actually quite surprising how much polish there is to the guns

this is incredible by DL2 devs on this one, the animations look awesome and are better in every way in comparison to DL1, so i commend that. one thing thats a little disappointing for me is the lack of new guns that were not in DL1 and could be introduced in DL2

dl2 guns are like if dl1 had a half mw2019 and half hl2 mmod remaster

Coughing Baby vs Hydrogen Bomb

The gun recoils a little more when Aidan is shooting, the gun recoils less when Crane is shooting. Why is it because Crane is a trained agent, he is a former soldier, Aidan has only street training and has never used a gun before

Guns in DL2 feels significantly better and punchier in DL2. They just need to add some variety such as revolvers. And I think Techland should retroactively add guns to some older bundles such as the Gunslinger bundle. One annoying thing though is that firing guns INSTANTLY spawns virals which are already very annoying in DL2. In DL1, there was at least a delay. And if you were fast, you could get away from them before they see you. DL2 is significantly more annoying in that aspect.

I love them BOTH 🗣‼️❤️❤️🤞🏻🔥🔥🔥Great Video broo❤️ all Love from the USA 😊

They did a great job audiovisually. The models and textures are better (That's the bare minimum but guess it is worth mentioning), animations and sounds are surprisingly detailed. But the gameplay with this guns its so awkward and uncomfortable, because is missing KEY Quality of Life features that DL1 had: Aiming with right click and quick access to weapon slots + Firearms shouldn't get holsted, aiming with a gun that's just not there is quite disorienting despite the crosshair. And i will miss the high fire rate and reload speed of the semi auto shotgun, it made it feel truly intimidating, like the heavy hitter of all guns, it was so powerful and satisfying to use.

I hope the volkan combat rifle comes back

I think they should increase the firerate of the shotgun, its not a pump action shotgun so why is it so slow firing? Its the exact same copy from DL1 but slow as hell. But aside of the damage output of those guns and the atrocious golden fortnite variant, its refreshing comperated to dl1.

The way the gun is held in dl2 just feels odd to me like why is it so to the right it should be a little more to the left

Honestly I like them both but the real question is do they actually have zips and cracks of bullets cutting the air going past you.

Little question in Dying light 1 when Kyle Crane shoots with gun the zombies hear that sound and they go to his location does that happen in Dying light 2 with aiden too? Cause i dont hear any zombies coming to him

Finally guns, the reason i quitted dl2 was because there wasn’t any gun but now maybe i can comeback. I only don’t like the sound of shotgun in dl2 but it’s my opinion

Wp techland, for sure polish fans re proud of u 🥺

Anyone else find these animations reminiscent of Cold War animations?

Hey Aussie! Thanks for the video. Just a quick question, did you let the normal filter on on DL2? Idk if it's just me but yours look so good

Are the gun models exactly the same or can you receive different looking guns in DL2? Kinda odd if they just decided to port over the exact models but the sound and animations are fucking amazing!!

Gotta admit I’m loving what they did with the new lighting and visual improvements. Don’t like how grindy the new vendor is, but boy does the game look and feel a whole lot better than it did before. The guns also feel suuuper inaccurate but that could just be me. Either way, MORE UPDATES LIKE THESE TECHLAND!

Dying light1 guns have more weight to them

I didnt like story agent way to get new guns tbh. Jax is cool for coop missions but not cool to level up

At least in both games they actually pull the trigger

I prefer dl2s guns, but only because the quality is a lot better (cough cough shotgun sight). Ive gotten used to killing zombies with melee weapons (and the occasional bow) and not guns, so its sorta strange now.

Did you use some in-game filter for dying light 2? I like the way it looks

Visuals in dl 2 after update are nice now , doesnt have that fortnite looking graphics finally

all they need now is FSR 3.0 and ill be happy with it :)

Not trying to sound nitpicky but it really bothers me how the sights aren't properly lined up at 4:43

all good all good but pls techland add better aiming options like l2 for example or something...:))

just now realizing they reused the same guns from DL1

Look at aiden hand when putting shells into shotgun animation is weird the fingers go through

SMG and Shotgun are so much better in DL2 . SMG has a better sound and aiden holds it with both hands . Shotgun has a much better sound and you feel how powerful it is. In DL1 you dont even load shells into your shotgun. Crane just shoves nothin but air into the tube. In DL2 you can actually see the shells in aidens hand while they are going in. Rifle's reload animation also seems to be better. I just want them to add different types of existent guns. Double Barrel Shotgun( hopefully an over and under model , but I dont see them making a new model), revolvers, police rifle etc.

we just need them to add revolvers now

hope they really go thur whit the guns and add attaments all jokes aside

dl2 compact smg sound remınds me ww2 machıne guns

They are going to wake up someday and admit they killed their golden goose

Does firing guns attract virals in dl2? I havnt tried it yet

Do you see any projectiles? Am I blind? It seems for me like we are shooting the air like when using a PK stationary weapon. Am I stoopid?

The bow animation. Needs to be fixed now tho

Solid

im guessing in dying light 1 the bullets stay in the gun

DL2 will never be on par with DL1 i think especially with the masterfull the following DLC, ghe buggy is wicked and id rather kill infected in DL1 and the night chases are way better.

bro the waltz fight is a joke with guns

Idk what the engine is called that Techland used in Dead Island, Riptide, COJ: Cartel and Dying Light, but it's absolutely terrible with guns. The way the gunplay feels is atrocious. The aim doesn't slow down enough for ADS to be comfortable, the animations sucked, the camera work is nauseating and it halved my FPS on my PC. Seems like they finally decided to address the issue in DL2. Unless the ADS still sucks.

Only noobs asked for guns you can kill a zombie way faster without one

How do you get guns in DL2? Only from Jai?

There's guns in dl2 now?? Alright now I need to reinstall it

Now all they gotta do is add back the baby zombies

Dying Light 2 is finally the superior to its predecessor!

what the fuck when did they add guns to DL2

Does anyone know how to ads with the guns on controller?

Dl2 is going to better then dl1

In Dying Light 2, you aim with L2 or R3?

Remember when they said that the boomstick would be the only “gun” in DL2? Fast foward 2 and a half years later and now the boomstick is completely irrelevant. I honestly wish that if they were to introduce guns back to DL, it should’ve been with the 2nd DLC with these guns being introduced there instead of being randomly added here, or maybe just stick to making scrap guns like in rust or fallout 4, then again, I’m at least glad they put some real effort into improving the guns and how they look here in DL2. Just wish that they introduced them with the 2nd DLC, that way it’d make a bit more sense and would be believable.

The dl2 guns suck, So lemme explain, I'd rather have guns than not but it's just kind of annoying how you can't drop guns, you can't carry alot of ammo AND they don't do alot of damage, it wouldn't be a big deal if we didn't have to do a whole bunch of bounties to get coins to buy ammo, they suck at balancing tbh, im ngl I'm kinda disappointed. Its not even worth using guns over bows, how did they let bows be better 🤷‍♂️ its so inconvenient and it's the same gun models too I hope these all get fixed but I doubt it, also you cant even drop more arrows to carry more ammo stacks!* Renegades also aren't scared of the guns even though jai said "be careful showing people you have a gun"

oooo

The animations in DL1 look smoother and less "forced" than those in DL2,lest you could argue that the latter mimics human movements better

While I'd prefer they had more original visuals for the guns, like pipe guns from Fallout 4, I appreciate the work. It looks good, specially the angles.

i want dying light soooo baaad but i live in europe

DL2

DL1 win:)

DL2 better

"promo sm"

For me guns in this game are pointless and no needed, only stupid community begged for useless things

yeah guns sucked in dl1

first :3
