Hmmm, I havent personally played the game yet myself, but If I wanted to kill an enemy I would throw the machete. But not in the *Throw* *Clunk, stuck in the chest* Style.

Anyone played Postal 2 Apocalypse Weeked?

Yeah, that way.

"What? And my fingers are still intact? KICKASS!"

Holy...Crap!

Where can I get one of these in the game, that's incredible.
Annoyingly you can only get this bad boy by pre-ordering. Too bad, because chopping the heads of three zombies in a row is REALLY satisfying.

This doesn't seem like a manly way to kill anything. It makes me think of some middle age woman freaking out and flailing the first thing she had in her hands. A pan since naturally she is a woman.

Throwing expert though so throw a couple of electrified machetes and knives. It kills entire groups if you have the perk that does a (lol almost put area effects spell, been playing to much oblivion) damage to an area around the zombie that you hit. Than take out my electrified axe and pulverize everything or a toxic sickle. For floaters and suicide zombies I have an heavy pistol with electric bullets. Hmm I seem to have a thing for electricity.

Single Zombies, flying kick, and than using the Super Mario combat-technique of jumping on their heads. Don't need to damage my precious weapons when I have two healthy feet.

Groups, using high-ground and slashing them down with my katana or two-handed ax. Or using my furry-ability.

I like throwing things.

I used to stick to knives and machetes and such, but it's immensely satisfying to throw my mighty hammer and knock out a zombie running directly at me.

I'm also guilty of throwing machetes at knife-wielding zombies while saying "That's not a knife. That's a knife."

Cut off/Break both of their arms and kick around the helpless creature
Waaaait wait wait wait, wait...you said break. Are you telling me in this game you could use, say, a sledgehammer to break their legs?

I kick them till they fall then I stomp on their crotch till they die, works better when I'm a female character because those high heels are just devastating when applied to the groin.

I tried to cut off their legs and watch them hobble along to catch me. Until I realized you can't cut off their legs until they're dead. :{

Best way to kill a zombie? I gotta say the, "Stomp them in the bollocks, then beat them to death with your bare hands" technique is my favorite. If I got a big crowd, I just use a molotov, which is followed by the "Stomp and punch them to death," maneuver.
This is basically how I got through the entire game. Yes, even Chapter 2. Yes, even against Punks.

thats odd i didnt pre-order the game but i have it lol
You get it with the Dead Island Special Edition or whatever. It was a free upgrade by pre-ordering, but you can still get it. I think the SE's are still only $59.99

Edit: Whoops...double post....eh...-flees-

I love breaking their arms and watching the bones stick out. I also love hitting them with brass knuckles.

Yeah since sharp weapons can cut limbs off, they didn't want to make it less appealing to use blunt weapons. So blunt weapons can "break" bones, which is essentially the same as dismembering. The limb just hangs there, limp and unusable. Of course, the zombies still aren't defenseless, and Thugs especially have quite a devestating headbutt-bite if you're not careful.

Honestly?

I sprinted past everything, unless it was totally unavoidable and I was forced to kill them. It was the only way I was able to stomach this buggy, clunky, frustrating mess of a game to the end.

When I HAD to kill things, it was done with molotov spam and electric machetes (or the front bumper of a truck). At least until I was able to get Zed's Demise, in which case I just chucked around my 20 duplicates like they were party favors.

well i would have a frying pan with an electric or fire mod if i could but its one of though scenery weapons that are always at level 1. the title is a joke, just thought i would explain that seeing as ur like the 2nd or 3rd person to go "i dont get".

I turn the entire game off, eliminating their entire world from existence... then I play Left 4 Dead 2.

With the grace of an Electric Machete to the face. Makes them fry if they don't die. That or a gun, but is that really fun?
