Alien Swarm - free Valve game

Does anyone elses game screen shake like **** when you get attacked?

I think it might be because of the new Nvidia drivers I just installed.... sigh!

Mine does it, I expect it's a game feature.

Getting whacked has more consequences than a bit of hp loss!

I'm loving the tesla gun so far, only played the medic as nobody else will...the nice person that I am.

I need to test out if the medigun uses up ammo when it doesn't hit anyone, the tesla doesn't so I'm hoping the medigun doesn't either!
 
Pretty cool game, only had chance for half a game though (cos my Chinese turned up ><)

I just need to figure out how to play it better :p

Looks like it could be a fun game, but the majority of the time I spend trying to connect to a game. The first game i joined was OK, but none of the players followed the damn objectives (new game I know, but it is so obvious what to do it shouldn't be an issue), the 2nd and 3rd games I played were so laggy it was unplayable, and the 4th and 5th games I had insane camera shake when I get attacked, again making it unplayable.

And for some reason I notice in console that it is trying to connect to the 'public' IP of 192.168.1.2, no idea why but that could just be yet another in a long list of bugs.

Given up on it now. If it gets patched then perhaps I may take a look at it again. For a free game though it has a lot of potential but with the ammount of bugs it seems more like a beta of a game than an actual release.
 
god ive been trying for 3 hours just to do the last level its either the garbage server browser that gives me a host with the wrong level or a group of dumb people if im lucky :(
 
I've enounctered a bug aswell. I'm not sure what level it is, but the one where at the end there's a choke point and two of those big spider things with glowing anuses are blocking the way. Well one knocked me back and into a cove below the stairs.

2 of us left on hard vs these two beasties, we won ofc but then I had to leave because there was no way out :(
 
I play on pubs, and there's been about 3/15 games I haven't got into.

I find, generally, if I don't end up in a game within the first 3 seconds I'm not going to get one so I click esc then re try.
