Anyone get weirdness with the recently played games list you get when you right click on the tray icon? Pretty often mine will go back to some random time in the past, but this time it listed Deathspank Pre-order at the top of the list. I had just bought it, but I didn't try launching it or anything. Weird.

I was playing with a group of buddies I absolutely love to game with. We had a blast the first two nights, but it just wears itself thin quick.ohhthegore said:

They'll only get mad at you if your stupidly getting constantly your self killed. Just make sure you play normal for now. I wouldn't recommend playing hard until your at least level 2 perk otherwise you'll be holding your team back, for Suicidal be at least level 4 perk. Also head shots otherwise you'll run out of ammo fast. Also some maps are harder than other's in the way there designed. West London map is a pretty good map to start playing and leveling up your perks.
I get what your saying but the shooting mechanics alone is what really keeps bringing me back to this game. The developers have already mention that they'll do a sequel to this game. Hope they'll add team mission/campaigns in the next game and also keeping the wave mode as well, more modes the better. Same goes with bosses would like for them to add more than one boss. I'll add more intensity when your in the final wave not knowing which type of boss will come out, maybe I'll be Patriarch which explosives is best suited for or some other boss that isn't weak against explosives but melee attacks or some other specific weapons. So spending your money on the final wave trying to decide which weapons to get would be more intense and strategical.

No, the game itself is just shallow as hell. You'll figure out everything there is to do in the game in an hour, and then an hour after that it's already repetitive and boring.ohhthegore said:
My experience is the same as Stallion. I enjoyed it for about 30 minutes, then it was that awkward remaining hour with friends where you're all trying to keep liking it, but you're all already thinking about playing something else, but no one will say anything until the level is just done.

had Swords and Soldiers in my hands in store today. 20 was a bit too much for me to double dip. The game is published by daedalic here in Germany and needs to be activated through steam. But it's not even listed in steam so far :lol

You know what was a good flavor of the week? Madballs. My group moved on from that long before we had tapped it out. I'm hankering to play it again now.

If you are going to compare the games, you really can only compare Survival mode in L4D and while Killing Floor does flesh things out much better there... there is a whole game left in L4D on the side.NIN90 said:
L4D is much more compelling in the long run due to the campaigns and VS component that lend themselves to much more replayability than any survival mode.
Left 4 Dead - 27 hours played - last played 9/13/2010
Left 4 Dead 2 - 38 hours played - last played 5/9/2010
Killing Floor - 311 hours played - last played today
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed every second I played L4D(2), but Killing Floor got me hooked so much right now that even the Sacrifice DLC couldn't tear me away from it.

L4D1 - 238 hours
Killing Floor - 13 hours

L4D1 - 238 hours
Killing Floor - 13 hours

I'm interested in the impressions of the people who pick up the game this weekend.

I would like L4D if the shooting didnt suck.
I would like KF if it wasnt so shallow.

Boring, the game is based around this holding off the waves gameplay and it doesn't matter what game it is, but that gametype never translates to interesting singleplayer. It also kind of helps to have a decent mix of people playing the different classes as the different roles can mean life or death.stuminus3 said:

I do not avoid women, GAF, but I do deny them my essence.
L4D is obviously the fuller game. I had more fun with it initially too.
But there are so many expectations on you when you play it, and I got tired of people being douchebags about it. In Killing Floor everything is more casual and the community is laid back. The stakes aren't as high, so its something you can hop into and play for a while.

Ohhh, I'm really excited for The Ball. I decided not to play the mod so as not to ruin the full experience. Looks like a ton of fun.dejan said:
Hopefully Tripwire picks up some other interesting games to publish on Steam.

It's like how reviews for things on the App Store are like "Make Angry Birds 2, Apple!"

I like Killing Floor but I certainly would not call the L4D games a 'borefest'. I love those too.NIN90 said:
Is anyone else having to sign in twice? It seems I need to sign in once when I fire up steam and then I need to sign in again to buy something or look at my friends list. Is this new?

Yeah . . . the versus multiplayer in L4D is too competitive for me.BobsRevenge said:
speculawyer said:
Have this problem once in a while when Steam hangs itself up and I have to start it manually new. I have to sign into the community a second time after signing in on steam itself.
Just exit steam properly and start it again. Should get rid of the second login.

People in expert campaign runs are usually cool, but you have to have a good group together to get through one without a lot of trouble.speculawyer said:

I used to be able to enjoy playing co-op and competitive games in pubs, but over the last few years it has reached the point where I won't even touch the online component unless my buddies are going to play as well.

Valve said:
Wolfire Games' first commercial product and those who obtained the Overgrowth/Natural Selection 2 preorder bundle last year gets this for free on Steam, as long as the Natural Selection 2 alpha key was entered.

Yes, probably in preparation for Overgrowth. Wolfire and Valve already has a deal that all pre-purchases of Overgrowth from Wolfire's site will be able to activate a Steam copy of Overgrowth when it's released.

Preachin' to the choir here; I've bought Lugaru in 2005, again in 2010, have been following its successor all along and made some significant contributions to Lugaru's moddability. So I knew about the Steam registration deal, it's been guaranteed pretty much from the start.crimsonheadGCN said:
stuminus3 said:
The game scales to the number of players. I put sometime in solo leveling and seeing if I could survive the waves on many of the maps. If you're up for a solo challenge it's fun.
Note: Soloing on easy is boring. Soloing on normal or higher when you have a class sufficiently leveled is fun.

On top of one weekend sale and one weekday sale, there are other sales randomly.RiverBed said:

Usually weekday sale from Monday/Tuesday to Thursday and a weekend sale from Thursday/Friday to Monday morning.RiverBed said:
Publishers put shit on sale for any old reason though. Of recent Modern Warfare 2 had a sale on DLC and now the main game just because a competitors game was coming out. All I know is that we consumers just win win win.

And once during the summer, and possibly Halloween?dream said:
Which awesome game, both of which you should own with the two on going sales, do you like more? And you can only like one... the other one has to be dogshit. >_<
The hardest choice for me right now is, do I want to play the new free content patch for Killing Floor. Or do I want to jump in to my new copy of L4D2 that was purchased for the same price I spent on my lunch yesterday.
I'm probably just gonna end up playing another round of LoL :lol
