Red Dead Redemption

It's not bereft of emotion, though. That Bigfoot quest, in fact, was pretty emotional. I felt bad.

I have to say, John Marston is not making a good impression on me. The character is written so lame (possibly for a more hysterical approach)

"You guys better calm down 'cause I can see that you're obviously very excited...and stop biting chunks outta people. It's not normal."

It made me laugh but when I think of Rockstar and zombies, I think screaming...not laughing. Sigh...at least it's fun.

you're doing it wrong

This sounds awesome...I think I will download this. Glad I didn't sell it!

haha really? I was laughing the whole damn time. I mean im freaking talking to a damn sasquatch!

Also i love Marstons line "but you eat babies"

I felt bad too, once I noticed they were running from me.
I found Pestilence, but it somehow died without me nearby.
I'm really impressed by the expansion pack, and i'm also very impressed by RockStar itself. The timing of the release was perfect (the week before Halloween, how more perfect could that be?), and the way they basically released a new game without actually releasing a new game is pretty neat. I wish more games would do things like this.

I really am liking undead nightmare. It's not quite what I expected, but still a very good dlc. My first multiplayer session was a disaster. I hid on a building not sure what was going on, and shot from range while I got my bearings. Meanwhile the rest of my team ran right in and died under 2 mins. I ran to revive them and died. My second game was awesome tho. We got through 20 waves, and everyone was kicking ass. By the end you had to practically unload 2 rounds/clips of anything just to kill it.

My main complaints would be, A) The ammo situation. Limited ammo in a zombie game makes sense, and I actually prefer it normally, but you have a horse. If things get tough, whistle and you're clear out of harms way in seconds. Personally I'd rather it have carried over your weapons from single player off the bat, and just upped the amounts of zombies. It's still fine tho, it's just a very minor complaint, by the end I'll probably have all my favorite weapons back. B) Would be the music change. The Great Plains lonely, creepy music would have been far more unsettling. Then again it's just another minor complaint. I'm really liking undead nightmare, and think other games that release 2 maps, and a character dlc for $10 could learn alot from this.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The lack of ammo is one of my major pet peeves, too. I saved like half a dozen freakin' towns already, one of which (Manzanita Post) I know the shopkeepers are still around for 'cause the guys I saved were holed up in the shop. You'd think they could show some gratitude by selling me some ammo to go help others, for crying out loud.

Alright, so I finally played a bit of Undead Nightmare. I should mention, I haven't played Red Dead Redemption in months. So when the game finally put me in control and up against my first Zombie, it suddenly dawned on me... I forgot how to play! >_< Honestly, I barely remembered the controls at all. First thing I did was to pause the game and skim through the control options.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Haha, I had the same problem. I was on my way out of the Marston farm and I was like, "S***, I'm still on the lasso, aren't I? How do I switch weapons again...?" Then I couldn't figure out how to slow my horse down as I was riding. I didn't look at the controls, though, I just re-learned them by trial-and-error. It all comes back pretty quickly when you think about it for a sec.

 

[socool]

Well, I found War by accident and he isnt that great. The good thing is unlimited sprint but he barely lights enemies on fire and when he does they rarely die. Ugh. At least I have unlimited sprint...

 

[Storm22]

I just found War too. Love him. Question though - can the horses of the apocalypse be killed?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

They'll always die from fire, but it takes forever for zombies to burn to death. If I'm stuck using the torch, I use it like a club and beat them over and over until they die. I don't need a flaming zombie who's dying really, really sloooooooowly to come up behind me while I'm fighting other zombies and hit me another half a dozen times before he finally croaks.

 

[Nathan]

Ah, the Torch. The game says it's a powerful weapon against the Zombies. So of course, I being all overconfident, ran up to the first Zombie I saw and put it on fire.

...

Then I ran for my dear life! "Powerful weapon my ass!" I was thinking. Now I'm getting hunted by a burning Zombie. But then I figured out that you can use it to one-hit kill Zombies up-close.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I know, I was storming around that cemetery at the beginning tapping zombies once with the torch and cackling to myself... then I got totally owned by a dozen burning zombies the moment I stopped running around.

How do you do a one-hit kill with the torch? I've hit plenty with it up close but it still takes like 4 or 5 hits to put them down for good.

 

[Nathan]

It's like when you're using the revolver. When an opponent is really up-close, you do that special kill animation. With the Torch, he stabs them in the face.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I have yet to get that. Do you have to hold the aim button or something? I usually just hit the fire button a lot and John just swings the torch around.

 

[Nathan]

I'm not sure, it just happens when they try to get really nasty and want to chew on me. Never paid attention to what I was pressing.

 

[Mr.Webs]

Downloading it now. Can't wait!

 

[Poeman]

downloading this tonight.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

I havent had a problem using the torch. If a zombie gets close enough, i whack him a few times with the torch, he goes up in a ball of flames then falls to the ground blackened. I should use that thing more often

 

[Spider-Vader]

I saw the Sasquatch mission on YT.

Spoiler

It was pretty damn sad. But I heard if you don't kill the last guy, they still wander around.

I can't wait to pick this up. I'm getting the special pack with all 3 DLCs for 1600 MP.

 

[LegendaryCaleb]

LOL. What a dick.

I found that whole mission hilarious. Ecspcially when you come to the last guy. That line, "But, you eat babies", had me rolling.

Spoiler

I left the last bigfoot alive, and later when i went back to tall trees to do a hunting challenge, I saw a zombie bear chasing the sasquatch and kill him. It was bizarre.

Also (Major spoilers)

Spoiler

I beat this today and now I'm trying to get the 100%, but I thought it was worth a mention that now I'm a zombie John Marsten cruising around on a Unicorn that leaves a rainbow trail and is surrounded by butterflies. I don't know why I think this is so damn funny.
