The hangout thread (organising social gaming etc)

There should be a new level and at least one new zombie being added this month I believe.

There's actually quite a few places the zombies can spawn, and the spawns can vary a lot. I tend to call out every possible spawn, but I'm sure any game can be learned in that fashion. I know I've been surprised by spawns before, especially specials, and in Masters, with a decent team, ended up losing the run due to a surprise spawning.

Larger levels would be nice, but I wonder if that's a limit of the q2 kicking in?

EDIT - I would like to see more spawns coming from behind, that would help disrupt a lot of the firing squad positions you can take up.

I've suggested that more spawns appear behind. Either flankinga firing line or cutting a runner off.

Again, i was using nightmare strategies so it would feel a little slow on masters. Holding that ledge in nightmare is no easy feat.

What I was saying wasn't a dig at you or the strategies that you were using. I just expected/hoped for more from the game.

I get that. Just that on the difficulty it's meant for, you don't feel like you're missing the action, since it's on top of you trying to eat your face.

That sucks Mel! Sorry about that dude.

Happy with walkabout golf, demeo, rec room etc.

after the fall on Q2 ?

He said he didn't enjoy it as much standalone before.

Unseul · 10 Jan 2022 at 12:57

Should be available. What do we fancy?

Unseul · 10 Jan 2022 at 15:08

Happy to take a break from after the fall (I play it enough elsewhen!). Happy to try rec room quests. Or just a chill walkabout golf session?

Don't mind demeo either.

Unseul · 10 Jan 2022 at 18:24

Happy to go with minigolf. As usual, whatever we're doing, I'll need a break around 20.45

Unseul · 10 Jan 2022 at 19:26

I can get on early, really any time from now, can we all get on early for some minigolf?

Unseul · 10 Jan 2022 at 19:32

Not really, just want to be sure we've got time to complete the course

Unseul · 10 Jan 2022 at 19:37

No worries, 8pm it is.

Unseul · 10 Jan 2022 at 21:54

Great fun. Such a fun game to play. More than happy to do it again next week I reckon.

What game did you play

Walkabout mini golf. Had some brilliant bouncing shots, and Mel managed a crazy hole in one too. Bogey's bonanza level.

My Dad and I had such a blast with it last night,with the hour we played.

Very impressive stuff.

Yeah, I think I've seen my dad twice in the flesh in the past 2 years, but have played VR with him virtually (get it!) every week for over a year. Started with real vr fishing, now we've just completed every walkabout level (including dlcs).

Unseul · 11 Jan 2022 at 15:13

I got super lucky in a couple of places. The chip shot into the water butt was lucky. But the long train tracks shot was absolutely perfectly planned....

Unseul · 12 Jan 2022 at 13:29

Rav was definitely on the verge of snapping his club on his knee with the rail tracks shot. So lucky, even moreso that it ended so close to the hole.

Sounds to being quite competitive,playing with you guys!!

In a game like mini golf, where you're just a bad day away from losing 5 strokes easily, the lead doesn't mean much, but that doesn't stop it being fun pointing out that you're winning/losing

. I'm just glad I recovered from the ones inside the mine. Both of those I felt like I was 2-3 strokes behind the rest of you.

Ill have to join for some walkabout soon, I got it in the sale and literally not played it properly yet!

Definitely it's a great chillout group game.

Unseul · 16 Jan 2022 at 22:55

I'll be there, happy for more golf.

Unseul · 17 Jan 2022 at 13:40

Demeo is fine by me.
