You might also want to pick up collectibles as you go along so once again you won't need to grind them out at the end.įor the most part Dead Island Riptide is an enjoyable game and won't give you much hassle on your road to completion. I recommend you familiarize yourself with a lot of the achievements before you begin, as several of them require you to get a certain amount of kills with certain weapons and it goes without saying that knocking these out whilst you play will save you grinding them at the end of the game. It doesn't really matter who you pick as every character can hold any weapon, so just choose who you like the look of. You will be able to choose which character you play the game with. If you haven't played the original or you haven't got a character to import don't worry as I will be explaining the achievements as though you were starting from scratch anyway. Depending on what level you were in the previous game, importing your character could unlock you the level 50 based achievement right off the bat. You can play through to get reaquainted, then you should join his game and help him progress through the story. You could have four Sam B's running around going 'Get this ugly sumbh offa me' if you want.
It is also worth noting that if you played the first Dead Island game you are able to import your character to this game. You start co-op in the bungolow where you get rescued.
