[QUOTE=RichyZ;42707968]i click instead of type because thats how hotd 1 2 and 3 did it for pc this does beg the question though, will sega ever port over hotd 4's ps3 hd remake to pc w/ typing of the dead branding?[/QUOTE] But this isn't House of the Dead. And why the fuck would you chose shooting with the mouse over typing? Just clicking is like 100 times more boring than typing stuff to shoot.
I wish there was more enemy variety, yes I know I'm just typing, but so far everything has been basic zombies and then boss fights where you hardly move, no real chases or anything.
Here's my Money Shot II score (It's one of the mini games) [img]http://i.imgur.com/XmKDj7K.png[/img] Only played once though, so not as good as it could be.
Can we have house of the dead 4 as well please?

The reason they didn't put in the keyboards this time is probably because of how much more advanced the cutscene animations are this time compared to the earlier games. You can't really switch out the pistols in mocap animation with keyboards and make it look alright, they'd have to re-capture the whole thing or animate the arms on top of the original mocap which would look weird
The final boss fight mechanics were unexpected and slightly confusing at first. [sp]Word association, but you can just keep typing words you've already done although for less damage. For Varla Guns I just kept typing "ass, tits, nipples, boobs", etc. For Caesar I tried "grey" (hair), and fuck though it and just kept typing "white"[/sp]

bleh, does anybody know how to fix the audio lag? it's seriously annoying.
anyone have a blank screen with just sound? steam overlay still works.
[QUOTE=Spacewolf;42688991]I saw someone dual wielding the shotguns from 3 in an arcade once, he was kicking ass.[/QUOTE] Shit, I did that. It was fun as hell. My partner bailed, so I had to pick up their shotgun and trsut me it's harder then it looks. Fun as hell though.
i think the most disappointing aspect of totd: overkill is that the boss fights are very easy and boring compared to the original totd's boss fights. the only interesting one was the final boss but even then you could just mash out random letters instead of filling out the blanks. in totd you had a boss where you had to type up a comedic paragraph before he hit you, and there was another boss where you had to answer questions like "which one of these is yellow" and it'd give you the choice of banana orange and apple.

Does anyone know how custom dictionaries work or does it still need to be patched in?
Hee hee hee. [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/524961421431250518/394C8C128B46198C8793E445C3975656CCF33C1C/[/t] So, I'm guessing that when multiplayer is released, we'll have another bout of activity in here for a few days?

It'd make the game a lot more enjoyable. I might actually buy it at that point.
Final bossfight is confusing. Rest of the game is absolutely hilarious. Kinda easy though, I keep getting 95-96% accuracy on Motherfucker difficulty, and I'm typing blind. :/
Multiplayer is out now. [url]http://store.steampowered.com/news/11950/[/url] Oh, and some Shakespeare DLC stuff.
