    On behalf of YoSaffBridge, a collected gent who also hails from the UK, I would like to apologize for the time (times?) he told your lovely children that they were possessed by El Diablo. He has his own issues to work out, and occasionally suffers from the honest delusion that small children are demons. Plus, he’s a bastard. I guess that’s not really an excuse, but I did say these would be sincere.

    I have a Homewrecker now, Jibbers. That's the biggest thing you missed. I have a Homewrecker and I am planning on playing Pyro a lot more because it's AWESOME. Amazingly effective, actually too. Djinn was on a Heavy rampage and he started prioritising me rather than Snipers and Soldiers and anything that could kill him from a distance, or at all, really. Though that might have had something to do with the fact I kept saying that he shouldn't shoot me.

    Okay quick question: Since when was Portal free?!

    I spent like, £20 getting it, then spent about... lots more on HL2 and TF2. I've got like 3/5 of the Orange Box for way more than I should have. I wants free stuff plox.

    What are the good things and the bad things about Killing Floor? I may wish to get it.

    Writings and ramblings would be here. Get it out of my head, and into yours.

    Portal is temporarily free to promote Steam for mac. It will stop being free on May 24th, but you keep it if you got it in that time. I'm not sure when the offer started.

    Quick reply to something in the last thread. Thrawn, how did you manage to avoid getting a steam community account? It makes you much harder to find, and I had no idea it was even possible.

    Unless that was some kind of a weird glitch on my end. Anyway, I couldn't friend you because steam told me there was nothing to friend.

    Interesting level design
    Excellent choice of weapons
    Balanced classes (ish)
    Good control scheme

    The Patriarch needs a complete redesign.

    On an unrelated note, if someone were to combine stalker and killing floor I would buy it.

    By not knowing what a steam community account is? I'm not so good at interface stuff, I'd even forgotten the whole, Shift+Tab at the main menu thing.

    So... basically I didn't even know you could add friends in TF 2 until either yesterday or the day before.

    While I may have built my own computer and have been gaming on PC's for like...15 years, I really need the beginner's guide for things like this.

    Killing Floor is fun and different because it's class based zombie killing. Simple gameplay, but can be really really difficult and fun.

    Speaking of which, I also have Killing Floor - [ChHa/GitP] Watsyurname.

    I am not on the player lists in the first post.

    My Steam is [ChHa] Volatar and I own L4D2 and TF2. (And L4D1, CS:S, AI War, and GMod)

    See, I was actually under the impression that the steam community account is a default part of the regular steam account. I never realized it was even possible to play steam games without one.

    Everyone is always you, Djinn. Or Djinn and Co. Or Djinnbar. Or The Real Djinn. Or Gin, who was just a random pubbie who somehow stole your name pre-emptively. To be honest, I'm surprised that there were two people who weren't you.

Though that might have had something to do with the fact I kept saying that he shouldn't shoot me.
    Welcome to the fold my brother.
    I've yet to unsap something, since my laptop exploding coincided with that update.

    Good news is I should have TF2 up and running later tonight and craft myself some Gunboats with the new schematics.
    L4D2 will probably be up again tomorrow.
    Any other multiplayer stuff I should prioritise reloading, if you guys have started playing new stuffs?

    The voice acting is amusing
    Variety of zombies and weapons to pick from

    BAD THINGS:
    The perk system.
    Spoiler

    So, killing floor has "Perks." (which are classes for all intents and purposes) There are six possible perks, and you use one of them at a time. For example, if you take the Sharpshooter perk, certain weapons become less expensive, more accurate, etc. So now you're better at sharpshooting. If you get a certain number of headshots, your sharpshooter perk becomes BETTER. Now you're even more accurate. Perks stay from game to game; you can switch between them once per round.

    There's no rule saying that sharpshooters HAVE to use the sniper rifle, just that they get bonuses for doing so.

    Look, there's ONE: TOTAL ONE: scenario in which a "Gradually improve your character" system works, and that's if you have a persistent character moving from start to finish over a long period of time.

    Thing is, Killing Floor is more like Team Fortress 2, or L4D2; you start a match and you play it and then you win or die and go "well that was fun" and then go home.

    So now imagine the following experience: You've been playing for a week or two now and you've gotten Sharpshooter to 3rd level. Your friend loads into the game and says he'll go medic to help you out.

    As a level 6 medic, his medkit recharges at double speed, heals double, he takes 1/4th damage from spitter acid, spawns with free combat armor (which is 75% more effective than yours) and in the event that it should be destroyed or damage he can buy new armor for 30% of the price you can. He also runs 25% faster than you.

    You say something like "Well that seems unfair. You're super fast with super armor and a regenerating supply of super-medkits. How long until I stop feeling like a helpless sidekick?"

    He responds "Well, um, level 6 sharpshooter is pretty damn good. How many headshots you got?"

    You say "1620"

    He says "Oh, well then, you're almost a fifth of the way there. It'll only be another eight weeks assuming that you continue playing the game at the same rate and never switch classes."

    The mutators

    To put it quite simply, they don't work. Set the game to "Crawlers Only" and by wave 4 (out of 10) there will most definately be a mix of every single zombie attacking you.

    The variety

    Although perks let you get BETTER at stuff, there really isn't any enemy or weapon you can't use your first day. After you've played for an hour you've seen everything. From here it's only going to be more of the same. I admit, l4d2 and TF2 have the same thing, but they have other players on the opposing team and they're made by valve.
