Yeah, Peltz' connection issues are positively BIZARRE. They can drop from playable (140 ms) to completely unplayable (650 ms) in a few seconds. Then when he reconnects he's at a normal ping again, at least for someone connecting from Estonia to my local server.

I played with him and two bots for a while, and another random dude Peltz knew joined us for the finale. I absolutely loved it. The moment I got my hands on that chainsaw, man...I went completely nuts. Ask Peltz.

CHAINSAW FTW.

We both found the grenade launcher during our playtime, too. It's a strange weapon: incredible powerful in some situation, incredibly useless in others.

The hardest thing perhaps about the game is the appearance of multiple Special Infected at a time, versus-style. At one time we got pwnt 10m from the saferoom, because I got jockeyed, 2 others pinned by a charger and the bot was helping people up instead of running to the saferoom and get killed too.

Oh and the finale is pretty hard without some coordination. 13 cans ...which can explode when you shoot them, too.

Really looking forward to Thursday...let's hope Peltz' connection holds out so we can ninja-sword-slash our way through.

Yeah, the magnum/deagle has an amazing kick. I like melee weapons for secondaries though. My playing style is quite different too, to say the least. Chaaaaaaarge!

As for tonight...I'll try to be home by 20-21h, but don't kill me if I don't make it! Looking forward to some ass-whoopin'!!

Oh, sorry about that. I thought you knew all the maps by now and i figured i better catch up because i dont want look like an idiot when we tackle the campaigns together.

No, no, don't worry, that'll just be me. And Derf when he ever joins us.

Well ive played the first three campaigns so far and i like the second one best because it is more ..umm.. controllable i think is the word im looking for.

I played 4 of the 5 campaigns... the second is the best imo because it's so bizarre. But they're all fun. I haven't played any of them with people other than Shiny, and only the first 2 with her. So the maps are still very fresh for me. Looking forward to whoopin some ass.

Made a personal record of sorts today. I had a whopping 50 teammate protects.
