Nothings more fun than igniting your very very low health ally from the door of the last room with your mighty flamethrower, giving you a nice bullettime while he dies and you win. :lol:

Also hornet missiles! Missile spam ftw!

Anyone got the hat yet?

Post subject:  Re: Alien Swarm - free game

Yes, the achievement is one of the first you will get and todays update added it in TF2.
The pyros version of the hat seems to be different, being across the face instead of ontop the head. :mrgreen:

Downloading the game now :D
Never really played anything like this before...
Looks to me like a sci-fi version of Diablo, which could be cool I suppose.
Don't expect much out of it, but it's free, can't hurt to try it out ;P

downloading it atm. as has most of the rest of the world, it would seem - even downloading from Iceland/Greenland isn't helping all that much :/

I also had some strange crashes in alien swarm :/ Too bad hat is so easy to get - it takes like 10 minutes to beat 2 missions on easy. Personally would rather see the hat rewarded for completing campaign on insane in coop. We tried insane once, and got slaughtered in like 3rd room in 1st mission :ugly:

ROYALE WOOT!

Post subject:  Re: Alien Swarm - free game

Just finished it. Ran through it with my brother on Easy; we started on Normal but on Deima (third mission) it proved to be too tough with only 2 marines so we eventually lowered it after dying a few times. He were the medic and I were the technician so if I'd die we had to restart the whole mission. Funnily enough he died on Deima about halfway through (a bit before the segment when the ship helps you) but I managed to survive and made it to the end... with about 10% health left. :mrgreen:

Anyway, fun game but with only about 2 hours of gameplay and one campaign it's definitely a bit short. But it's free so what the hell.

Put -console in launch options (steam > libary > rightclick game > properties > set launch options)

Now run the game and type this is your console.
Code:
asw_camera_shake 0
no more stupid shake
Code:
asw_fast_reload_under_marine
Places a fast reload bar under your actual marine so you don't need to look in the corner to time your reload.

a few more commands is here http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/s ... ?t=1371124
now i noticed there is a command called "maxplayers" and the highest is 6...woot woot

This is why they have the user friendly map editor - so the community will start making the next campaigns.

Played the campaign a couple of times last night, pretty fun, have to get used to the perspective a bit more, and maybe pick a different class, people always run in the way of the mini gun lol ^^

Seeing that most people on the game are actually stupid enough to rush facehumpers I went medic, kinda like it :)

And sometimes you have no chance of getting away. So a medic IS nessesary to the game.

Except when they constantly get face humped and you run out of health. No health = DEAD TEAM :roll:

I love the music, cross between the interior garden centre music and elevator music ^^ badASS! :ugly:

Post subject:  Re: Alien Swarm - free game

You just brought back memories of being dragged around garden centres as a kid, and hiding in shed's in an effort to lose my parents and scare the shit out of my sister.

Hated the interior music though. Much preferred the outdoor area's with ponds with fish in them.
