Had a game with some OcUKs last night, i have never played before but the game is really fun & i will have to learn the ropes.

I think you're thinking of another level. The 1 with the Super Sheep and the mine at the other end is fairly straight forward. Campaign 18 is the 1 where you have to plant a Electro Magnet to launch the mine.

All I used in that level was the magnet, I did it in on the second go on my pc, and on the first go on my brothers pc

He was swearing at the screen until I did it for him

Who is zombi3? That was a class game, that Armageddon saved my life although I was cacking it he was going to get hit as well!

Well i didn't know how to rotate the girder so i ended up doing it on the 3rd try once i changed my strategy. Finished all 35 missions now anyway, the sentry gun 'puzzle' was such a pain... having to drop mines and detonate em in the right places.

yes completed campaign

level 30 use a worm to drop down and collect the drill or ninja rope i suggest going for the drill, drill down to the crate drop you guy with 30 health down the hole wait for your turn and unleash ARMAGEDDON 2 steam achievements and victory are yours.

Any chance of playing this within a window, so I can browse whilst playing?

 

[cainer]

you lads using controller or keyboard? i found it buggy using keyboard,, somtimes the worm mores nicely left/right other times you have to keep tapping the key to get him to move, up/down movement when aiming also suffers from it and jetpack flying.. damn annoying

Try downloading DivX from here, working for me

We had this problem and the download resolved it, before that sound wasn't working and it was crashing on explosions

Whehey, they've fixed push to talk though really you need something like Vent or Mumble for proper voice comms due to the local servers sometimes resulting in dodgy speech = (at least on my end anyway).

Anyone else see wallhacking AI worms in this? Had a few of the AI worms take their turn then teleport instantly across the mao (without using the teleport obviously).

That requires a bit of luck with the Armageddon, i tried it the first time and got wasted. It'll probably work if you try it enough but theres an alternative. Grab the Ninja Rope and Drill, Ninja Rope around the outside of the map and up the tunnel in the centre, collect Armageddon and Drill down into the cheese so you're at the very bottom and fire away.

the game was updated yesterday and one of the updates was tweaked the drill distance so i'm wondering if they made it no go as far

going to try it now and report back

*EDIT* YUP the drill distance has almost been halved you'll have to ninja rope around the edge of the cheese circle and drill down a few feet to the bottom then launce the armageddon. might take a few attempts to ninja the outside and requires some funky timing to get up the hole.

Good luck and let us know if you do it

i've now completed levels 31-35 they are awesome

I can't get past the mission where you have to ninja rope the map in under a minute. I can't even get up to the top on the right hand side before the timer counts out I suck at being a ninja.

it's all about timing the swings then releasing the rope and a bit of luck the next rope latches onto a decent wall, just practice, me and my son play armageddon 2 on x box 360 and we ninja everywhere. It just takes patience and practice

 

[marc512]

for some odd reason iv been updating worms reloaded for an hour this morning after playing it fine last night. Has there been a patch or something?

 

[Dave****]

153MB patch it seems. Just checked on my download tab and it's on there.

a short vid i just did how to get to the top right side not a speed run or anything just shows you how to get there within a reasonable time

quality is poor and slow because i shrunk to file from 1.2gb to 28mb and used fraps so if you know anything better that don't have a 30 second time limit and have to pay for let me know

UPDATE LIST As posted by bill from team 17 on the steam forums

Ok, got an update uploading right now with a few fixes. Apologies for not posting much on the forum today, been responding to support emails. We fixed a lot of crashes just by getting people to validate their steam download. For those who don't know how to do that: -

Verify integrity of game cache
1. Load Steam
2. From the Library section, right-click on the game and select Properties from the menu.
3. Select the Local files tab and click the Verify integrity of game cache... button.
4. Steam will verify the game's files - this process may take several minutes.
5. Once the process is completed, the Check Window will automatically exit.

so on with the fix list

Fixed a crash if the game fails to initialize the DirectX XAct sound manager (this was one of the reasons the game was crashing on boot for some people)

Added some more logging to help track any other crash issues

Refresh rate should default to 60 and there is now an option in the video settings to adjust your refresh rate. (should help with some lagging issues)

Sentry Guns now correctly target opposition teams when in an allied game

Drilling distance has been tweaked

and on a personal note, I'm really pleased that

Push to Talk is now on by default and uses the "END" key. You can change the push to talk always on in the audio options. (Really want extra feedback on this one)

I know it's not a massive update, but we are working on a lot of other fixes. The problem is that here in the UK we have a bank holiday on Monday, so we are not back in the office until Tuesday.
