That would count towards the artifact?
I'm pretty sure that "I'm just fixing your stupid pile" is the best line in the game
Hah, I had the exact same end to that encounter yesterday. Held up the last guy, but he wouldn't go down with the pistol and had to get my hands dirty to finish it off. That's what I like about the combat, it can turn into a real mess (meant as a compliment)
Tempted to try Grounded after watching that vid.

just realised that using chapter select makes me have the same equipment I had at that point so i wouldnt have a shiv for door 11 no matter what (mine was broken even though i never used it on a clicker)

It's pant wetting stuff, lol.
Since quite a few fellow Gaffers supported me and were interested in buying one, i can tell that my Clicker Skull design is now officially on sale on Redbubble and Neatoshop (got no luck with Teefury and other sites like those this time, it happens!).
It's available both in colors and grayscale, but i removed the Fireflies logo since i eventually beat the game and i can't stand those fuckers, LOL.
Thanks for the appreciation guys! :d

Ughhh, this mentality really bugs me nowadays. Everything must have a twist, or some big plot revelation in order to be classed as "good", and if it doesn't feature one then it's a "crappy" ending. I'm so glad they didn't go down that route, they're so overused and generic. I find them a cheap way to make your story more interesting, akin to jump-scares in horror movies.

Damn. I don't know why I went with Survivor. Even having played the game a year ago I got to grips pretty quick and ended up having an easier time when I played Hard the first time.
Now I gotta do 3 playthroughs minimum for SP trophies ;_;

ok decided to new game plus after using chapter select and realising my lack of shivs.
I clicked continue new game plus and selected grounded (my first playthrough was grounded as well)
just got to my backpack, all supplements I had are already there but collectibles all artifacts and firefly pendants I got arent, training manuals are though
worst case scenario a single run through on easy for collectibles?

Yeah that's supposed to happen. If you go to the Statistics screen or Chapter Select you can still see how many collectibles you found and in which chapter you missed something. All collectibles respawn every playthrough with the exception of training manuals, but the ones you already found before are still registered as "found" and you don't have to pick those up again - but you can.
It's weird.

yeah, i just noticed a glitch, got to my backpack and 2 of my pill upgrades were missing, and that was because i used chapter select to see if i could get a shiv door when i couldnt
so i've gone back to the main menu loaded up my last first playthrough save (which didnt load the game up but took me straight back to the main menu oddly, and starting new game plus again)
should a save in new game plus show a + symbol?

You won't get the trophy for grounded. When you change difficulties and beat the game you'll only be awarded the trophy for the highest difficulty you changed it to, and the trophies that fall under that (ie: you change it from grounded to hard, you'd get trophy for hard, normal, and easy). In your case, when you beat the game you'll only get the trophy for Easy. Sorry! Should have looked up a walkthrough.
But my point was I didn't even beat the chapter (or check point even). All I did was switch to easy, gathered a ton of supplies, switched back to Grounded and left off exactly where I was last but I had the supplies from Easy.
Once I realized my error I switched back thinking those supplies would go away but they didn't.
That has to be a bug/glitch.
Okay, I'll probably give it a shot but if it starts to feel like a chore I will most likely drop it. I honestly don't mind a bit of a challenge but the matchmaking drives me crazy.
Just checked. In the save select screen it doesn't, but if you press the Options button and then go to Information, it should say "#% Complete New Game Plus" on your save file.
ShogunDarius

once I get out of chapter 1 i'll check. Yeah it does 1%Complete New Game Plus doesnt say what difficulty though, should it?
FYI for other people, dont chapter select, just go straight to new game plus
as much as i love this game i wish it were possible to skip chapter 1 on new game plus
reloading my last save again the restarting my missing supplements are back. DO NOT LOOK FOR COLLECTIBLES VIA CHAPTER SELECT UNTIL AFTER NEW GAME PLUS
I thought the same thing originally, but it really only takes 15 minutes (if that) once you know everything and just let it go. No need to check extra places when you are controlling

The beginning of chapter 2 is worse for me. Though I do like a lot of Tess' dialogue so that helps that section along.

The MP is very fun but I can also understand your hesitation. I got hooked for a while on the PS3 version, finished one of the 12 week campaigns and really enjoyed it. I've done ~4 weeks on PS4 and have mostly lost my motivation. Pretty sure it takes 84 matches (1 day/match) to finish the 12 weeks required for each trophy so you have to be pretty invested in it. It's not very challenging, you don't have to be great at the MP to survive your camp and get over 40 survivors required for the other trophy, but it does take some time.

any idea how far I am through? currently on hard not aiming for any particular trophies and just enjoying the game.

You're about halfway. Maybe 40-45%.

I feel the same way kind of. I actually have zero interest in the multiplayer since I don't really like how slow 3rd person online shooters usually are. I have all the single player trophies though so I want the platinum now. I wish they didn't have any multiplayer trophies in this game.
Ffs I was stuck at the part where you
and I finally had a good run with good chance of making it, and then the game crashed with that stupid error.
For some reason I'm getting more frustrated with my Grounded+ run than my normal Grounded run. Reallyyyy can't wait till I finish this and then go nuts on easy++

I got my only crash in that spot too!
I did an Easy playthrough after Grounded. It was so satisfying having more supplies than I could carry at all times and wasting ammo on easy enemies like it was nothing lol.
That grounded mode. Played through the
yesterday. I was really dreading that part but managed to do it in a single attempt. I was swinging those bricks like crazy. Then I got to the door, went to next encounter and died to

a spore bomb that the bloater threw after me. Apparently it can kill you through walls.

Playing on grounded. Autosave can really leave you in a bad spot...

Nope, that would be David's "much obliged" when stabbing an infected that grabs onto him.
Doesn't matter, it still knows you switched difficulty. :[

What is a good brick strategy? Do you just run up to an enemy and just pound on the square button? Or should ou stun the enemy with the brick? I'd like to know as my ammo management isn't very good
I loved Ellie's reaction to one of her jokes from her book.
There's a small pause then she says
.
Bricks or bottles are for stunning enemies. Grab them and then strangle them once they are stunned. On the easier difficulties you can just bash their brains in by hitting square when you have the brick out though lol. That's always fun.
People are telling apocalypse jokes like there's no tomorrow.

I have no idea why you think it would be a glitch. As soon as you switch the difficulty it's registered by the game, very simple concept. I'm pretty sure every other game does it like this also.

Definitely doesn't apply to clickers, you're right. Doesn't apply to

Timing is key when starting a front on fight with a brick, I've got the technique down now. Though you can still be slapped once when trying, risky and I wouldn't do that on Grounded if I were you. Best thing to do is kill a clicker with one from behind if no shivs are available with a brick as you cannot kill them from the front with one.
Also don't bother using them on Humans unless it is to throw one for a stun attack as you can just choke them out or knock them out easily enough.
Bricks are precious so only use them when you literally have like 2 bullets across all guns. Throwing them can save your life against Humans in a tight spot, I know they have with me many times especially when they have a gun.
Good luck!

These looks wonderful, great job! (unfortunately I can't order as I'm not living in the states)
And I'm surprised by the amount of skilled and brave players around here that are going for Grounded and even manage to beat it, I don't think i will ever even try this, Survival is the best I'm gonna do, Grounded just seems masochistic and frustrating to me but I guess that if you are really good at this game it's not impossible.

Not sure. My Elite's are awesome but they bug out and lose connection every now and again. Have some Gold's on order. Hopefully they fixed that problem.
Yeah I noticed that issue, like ten seconds once per session.
I have noticed this, but only in some games. The headset beeps and you loose sound. Then it comes back again. Is this the same issue? i would figure they would update drivers for their headset compatibility. Specially since these are sony as well.
Apart from that, headset works great. Used it all the time in Destiny with no disconnect or issues.
You can do that on any difficulty even to clickers if they haven't noticed you.

GerAlt-Right. Ciriously.
Yeah, you pretty much have to do that on grounded cuz bricks are the one thing that there is an abundance of.
Yeah, though the risk involved makes it not worth it. On grounded for example I wouldn't even recommend killing clickers at all unless you're forced to. Just crouch with a weapon out and you can get sickeningly close to them without alerting them. With regular enemies stunning then choking is way safer too.
Bricks are scarce to the point where avoiding enemies instead of bricking them on grounded makes the most sense.
