Re: zps 1.6 update Hardcore mode sounds fun, its now just-like-it-has-to-be if you are fighting with zombies: Every fucking hit by them means you are doomed, muahahaha *thumbs up*
Re: zps 1.6 update hardcore mode is a little gay, while it has the right idea it's rediculously hard. i'm all for a challenge but when it takes 9 headshots with a shotgun to bring down a whitey... still, it brought in a few more players. until they got pissed off anyway.
Re: zps 1.6 update Ok, now thats a bit too much fire the zombies can take ..... Btw, gig, you're W40K fan ?! <3
Re: zps 1.6 update W40k ftw Space marines shall rule the lands! ahem. Hardcore mode is ridiculously hard. Rifles have become obsolete since 1 clip can't take down a zombie, and by the time they've reloaded the zombie has already regenerated to full health. After around 20-30 rounds playing on Cabin humans didnt win once. I lived the longest scoring 4:21 by camping behind the wardrobe in white house :> I want an update for it pronto
Re: zps 1.6 update Awwww, damnit ...... Well, a little tabletop battle with my Imps / Demon Hunters / Black Templars (nothing else than imperial forces, burn the herictic and destroy the alien!!) would have been too much trouble anyways, as if i'd like to drive into another country for a tabletop battle xD We need a W40K thread i think
