Thanks to much misinformation over the recent launch of Dying Light, there have been many angry gamers regarding the recent patch Techland put out. This simple mod allowed PC players to remove the game’s film grain filter by altering a data file.
The updated data file was uploaded to Media Fire and two days later the mod was pulled. Media Fire’s operators received a takedown notice from the ESA. Later on patch 1.2.1 was released to discourage cheating during the 'Be The Zombie' PvP mode. Freesat v8 firmware update. This resulted with an error not allowing modders to make such tweaks like the film grain filter.
Here's what Techland had to say on Steam to their players.
Using real world data to accurately replicate the performance, sounds and feel of real trains, drive real world inspired missions, run 24-hour timetables, relax as a passenger or watch trains go by, the possibilities are endless.
'With the recent patch (1.2.1) on Steam we blocked cheating to make sure the game’s PvP system (Be The Zombie) would not be abused. This, however, had the side-effect of hindering mod-makers from making changes to the game.'
'Creating obstacles for modders has never been our intention. We are now working on a quick patch that will re-enable common tweaks while stopping cheating in the game’s multiplayer mode.
'At Techland, we have always supported the mod community, and loved seeing how our own game can be changed by the players. A big part of the original Dead Island’s success was the passion and creativity of mod-makers from our community. We want the same for Dying Light.'

PS4 Download Issues
Some PS4 users had issues with their pre-downloaded versions of the game not loading up. On Twitter there was a post with this link to the PlayStation EU forums that explains a simple fix.
If you receive an error code, simply delete the failed or partially failed downloads from your “Downloads” section of the PS4’s Notification area, and properly install the game.
Reset Issues
Players are reporting a serious problem with Dying Light that deletes acquired items, blueprints, money, and levels by resetting entire characters.
The exact cause of this specific bug is unknown. Rumor has it to be caused by quitting the game straight after sleeping, while others have reported it after playing in co-op mode. This is affecting both the Xbox OneandPS4 versions of the game.
As of yet, Techland doesn't appear to have acknowledged this particular problem. I have reached out to Techland's PR for comment and am awaiting word currently. As soon as I have an update, I will provide it here.
