Can somebody develop a FPS without zombies, supernatural elements, mutants, aliens and World War?

I am tired of all these... :mad: :banghead:

Even that was supposed to release, in a new version, of course, this year. No news what happened to it. :(

Yeah well you need a reason to kill right??? These are the reasons to kill people. Why would you kill people other than this one??? Unless developers come with a new story of course and this looks a long way. :)
Anyways Far Cry series oh wait Far Cry 2 and 3 don't have supernatural power or world war and there are many others also. Try them. :)

@gameranand: the poster is really nice
Thanks. :)

Send me the Far Cry 3 DVD immediately. ;)

Couple of games that immediately coming to mind, where you don't have zombies and all - Max Payne & No One Lives Forever 2 (NOLF 2 did have some robotic creatures though, but that's tolerable, even FEAR was good, I was mostly killing humans). Why developers don't want us to kill humans, except in a battlefield type of situation???

Its not released yet. Its still under development. Although you can play Far Cry 2. In that game you only have to kill humans and that game ain't a WW or a battlefield game.
Other games for you that came to my mind are
1.Bioshock Series (you have supernatural powers but still damn good shooter)
2.Brink
3.Bulletstorm
4.FEAR series
5.Just Cause series
6.Red Faction Guirella
7.Tom Clancy's Rain bow Six Vegas series
8.Tom Clancy's GRAW
9.Wheelman

In all above games you only have to kill humans except Bioshock in which you have to kill what to say hmm....mutated humans.
No war is going on in any of these games. I hope you like my suggestions. Enjoy. :)

Yeah, FEAR is definitely the best FPS I have ever played. Bioshock was good. And I think I might just try Bulletstorm.

Another question, after seeing the trailer and all, I feel like this game is more or less like Dead Rising with a lot more complexity may be. Is it true or am I missing something?

Nah its different. Its a kick ass game with loads of fun and just fun. You'll enjoy it very much. See the Thread of Bulletstorm to get idea about the game other user's viewpoint. :)

Eh, you get me wrong. I was asking if Dead Island is similar to Dead Rising or not?

I am pretty sure that the only thing that you might find similar in DR2 & Dead Island 2 is weapon modding to little extent & free roaming. Apart from these, I don't find find any similarity b/w their gameplay. I am also believing that pirates won't have a good time with this game cos it requires Steamworks & leveling up like in Killing floor.

Dead island's characters.

First Character is :
Name : Xian Mei

Xian Mei is an employee at the Royal Palm Resort, born and raised in China, she chose an occupation that allowed her to leave her country of birth in order to experience different people and cultures - Banoi is her first placement outside of her homeland.

She is a fast learner, intelligent, and also - as a passionate sportswoman - quick on her feet. Having just arrived at the island, Xian Mei was responsible for a myriad of menial tasks at the hotel, before starting work as a receptionist. This opportunity to meet and greet all the different nationalities that visited the hotel was ideal for Xian Mei, as it provided a perfect source of inspiration for her dreams of travelling the globe.

That is of course, before suddenly the world around her begins to crumble...

Second Character is :
Name: Sam B

A one-hit-wonder rap star of fading fame, Sam B was booked by the Royal Palms Resort Hotel to perform his well known song "Who do You Voodoo?" at a high profile hotel party. He gladly took the chance to play this gig.

Once strong, self-confident and proud, Sam B has had a troubled past and a history of drug and alcohol abuse, as his private life became caught in a haze of fake friends and bad advisors.

Trying to pick up the pieces and earn some extra cash, he suddenly finds himself surrounded by a whole lot of different problems...

Third Character is :
Name: Logan

A former American football star, spoiled by life and successful in every possible way, Logan's ego finally put an end to his bright future. Taking part in a reckless street race with tragic consequences, Logan not only killed a young woman - his unfortunate passenger; he also fractured his knee, putting an end to his sports career. His fall from stardom inevitably followed and he plunged swiftly into a life of bitterness and despair. In an attempt to get away from the demons hunting him, he gladly takes the chance to experience the beauties and wonders of Banoi.

Soon enough though the getaway he was dreaming about turns into a real life nightmare...

Fourth Character is :
Name: Purna

Not Revealed Yet...

Graphics are like crysis.
Far from it. Call of Juarez: The Cartel was the advent of Chrome Engine 5 and believe me, the game's graphics were a pile of poop on the consoles. Though, the PC version might have a different story. But even from the gameplay videos of Dead Island, the graphics are anything, but impressive. Heck, Left 4 Dead's character models & weapon detail look better then this game.

I liked the gameplay but not that mush. Gore level was good and throwing that hammer was fun but killing them with wrench was not that good for me.
