The communities around those games have invested tons of time and money into them.
There are now three huge games in that genre - League of Legends, Dota 2 and Heroes of the Storm - with highly dedicated player bases. The MOBA genre is still as competitive as ever, though. The game now averages around 233 players, with a peak of only 484 in the past month: There's been a steep drop-off since then, though. Steam Charts shows that the game peaked at the launch of open beta in December 2014 with an average of 2,000 players at any given time and a peak of just over 6,000. The low player population for Dead Island: Epidemic was likely the reason why it's being shuttered. We’re sad to announce today that we’ve come to the conclusion to cease further development.We will be leaving the servers open until the end of October 15th (Pacific Time), during which time we’ll run a very large discount on all characters and boosts to give everyone a chance to spend any remaining currency on characters and items you may have wanted to try before, but never did.
Over the past weeks and months we’ve been evaluating how to proceed with Dead Island: Epidemic and looking towards the future for the game. Instead, it merely provided the shutdown date: Guns don't kill but they help (25 points):Ĭomplete 5 quests in a single co-op game with the same partners.The Steam announcement didn't divulge the reasons behind the shutdown.

After you sell them load your last checkpoint saved, and you will notice that you still have the money from selling the paddles, now just keep doing this until you have the desired amount of money, and that’s it! Next step, once your inventory is full, is to go down stairs, and sell those paddles to Wayne (Shop Trader). If you take the paddle it will be added to your inventory, now load the last checkpoint saved, you should still have the paddle in your inventory however, a new paddle will respawn in that same location, so keep taking the paddle and then loading your last checkpoint saved until your inventory is full. There’s a paddle ($27 Value) in that office, right next to the door (left side corner). This is when you can get unlimited money, it will take time, but if you’re low on cash, why not!Īnyway, the game will save and this will be your last checkpoint saved. Once you have completed the Quest he will tell you that there are other people around that need some help, and he will be in the lifeguard tower office. It can be achieved when you first clear the Lifeguard Tower area for Sinamoi (EXODUS Quest). This is a very simple cheat, and can be done very early in the game.
