Alien Swarm - free Valve game

Its like in Gears of War. A little bar pops up just above your avatar when reloading, if you press 'r' again at a certain point you reload faster.

Ah, that's where it's from, I was thinking ME but couldn't pin point the exact game :)
 
Loving this little game. Valve really do offer something with there games that no other publisher seems to, take pretty much every game they have released and you can guarantee free regular updates, pathes and fixes as well as new content. Hats off to valve for yet another top title and even more respect for giving it away for free.

The few games I have played, I have had absolutly no problem with... I may go for a few tonight so will check in and see if anybody is up for a game.
 
I went straight online the second day of release and got called a retard amongst other things even thought the game had been out for less than two days.

All I was doing was asking which key etc.

Made me laugh when I was the last one left and fished the level on my own why all the 'experts' watched on. :D
 
I need to try and get in to this. Don't really know what it's about or what I supposed to be doing however.

Is there some sort of tutorial in game as I wasn't able to find one?

Cheers
 
I'm loving this too. Daren't play online yet til I master offline given the amount of grief id probably get for being a noob.....

There's an offline option?????

Just jump in, if you've played any game ever and unless your name is Steve! :) you'll get into it pretty quickly.

Try the offline mode - there are on-screen prompts that tell you what the controls are and what to do in specific situations. There isn't much you need to know beyond what the basic controls are :)
 
Had a quick blast offline as I couldn't get in any online games. Looks good fun!

Main thing I struggled a little with was the doors.
 
Hey guys,

I've got an *amazing* idea :p It's a bit difficult to co-ordinate games with so many of us in the group, so if you need a game, or need a few more people to complete your team, why don't join the GROUP CHAT for the OcUK AS Group. Then people can co-ordinate more easily than faffing about on forums, adding people on Steam friends etc.
