Network
- If there are mods installed or the

files for characters are edited, all clients need the same mods in order to play.
It should also be noted that challenges are global, so if close to killing for instance 1 million zombies with one character, and then play co-op with another and hit one million total kills, this character will gain all the XP from completing the challenge. - Steam and Mac App Store players cannot play together.[1]

Issues fixed
- Several fixes can be found in the FAQ on the Steam Community Discussions page for Dead Island.
- If manually applying some of these tweaks isn't desired, check out tools section at end of the page.
Game won't launch on older open source Mesa radeonsi AMD drivers on Linux
- This fix should no longer be needed with newer drivers.
Use a specific library for Mesa and override the OpenGL Mesa version at launch[citation needed] |
---|
MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=4.5 MESA_GLSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=450 %command% |
High frame rate issues
- High frame rates will cause broken animations scripts.
Limit frame rate to 60 FPS[8] |
---|
Enable Vsync and set refresh rate on 60 Hz[citation needed] |
---|
Long loading times
- Some users are experiencing ridiculously long load times when doing things like loading the menu, game, etc. It can literally take over 5–10 minutes for some people. Oddly enough, this may relate to error logging that is done by the game.
Mark crash.log as a Read Only[citation needed] |

Notes

Loud distorted audio
- Dead Island has a compatibility problem with 7.1 output devices, this includes Logitech USB headsets (G35, G930) and 7.1 sound devices that use 3.5 mm analog connections. This issue is typically immediately recognizable when reaching the title screen and hearing a loud, frightening, distorted noise; this issue also carries over into the gameplay. This issue was present in Dead Island: Riptide, but was corrected by Techland. Techland has yet to correct the issue with the first Dead Island game. The definitive solution is to set the device to anything below 7.1 but other options exist that may help.
