Thats what I did at the railway bridge. Couldn't work out the static charge tunnel affair, so just ran past the baddies, used the shotgun to blow one of them away and pinched his machine gun.
Once I'd spoken to the bloke with the dog problem, I went back to finish them off.
I could really do with a sniper scope. The guns I've got right now seem a bit rubbish from anywhere other than point blank range.

Found that bit dead easy first time round on 'Stalker' setting - replaying on Veteran and got owned repeatedly until I backed off the gung-ho approach. Ended up sprinting out of the gates and hiding behind the tree nearby and then just picking off the bandits as they tried to angle me.

I love the realism on this, was in some sort of underground thingy and suddenly came across this semi-invisable thing that turned out to be a large flailing mouthed type creature and I did exactly what I'd do in real life... RUN AWAY
And a bit further on there was some dude that must have had real bad breath cause he kept doing a little dance which made queezy and again I did what any normal man would do RUN AWAY
Really enjoying the game so far. Not sure if its from my Deus Ex days but I'm finding myself using a modified pistol I found in the training area more than any other weapon and there's pretty much a limitless supply of ammo on dead geezers (hmmm, king of pistols in DE)

) i heard a growl and some heavy breathing i shot round looking behind me for some foul nastie and i couldnt see anything then releived i turned round again only to be met by one of those bloodsuckers i shreaked and my gf luaghed

Its not that scary, you do get a torch though it doesn't seem to illuminate very far

I've only been in the first one and I pretty much ran through spraying wildly at anything that moved (including my own shadow)
Yeh that's freaky.keogh said:Yeah, that was hard to play... especially when things start to move.................. on their own
In the labs I've had bits of wood and boxes at me which freaked me out. Then once I was about the train station when suddenly there were guns flying at me. In daylight, that freaked me out even more as it was completely unexpected. You'd think all the scary places would be dark

Yeah, I always seemed to have that problem in the labs too...ended up having to make my way out with pistols or crappy weapons picked up from enemies. Bloodsucker vs. Viper submachinegun

Thats what they want you to think, so you just stroll along without a care in the world, them BLAM, a machine gun gets lobbed at ya head... but no one is around.
I remember that, as soon as I saw the gun in the air I pegged it, cos it hurts when they hit ya
