I'm going to tear my hair out

Post by bedoughty » Sat Mar 05, 2005 7:00 pm

First off: this is one of the coolest games I've ever seen. I've been an avid gamer for a while for a while, everything from Tetris to Half Life, Quake 3, and Unreal 2k4. I love this game's style and the approach. That said...

I'm about to pull my bleeping hair out. I can't beat the challenge level 11 and I'm stuck in that winter level where there's 4 hundred billion wolves all roaming around with laser guided sight and claws. (ok fine, so they don't have lasers on the 'easy' setting.) Two hits from a wolf and my throat's slit, which is head-against-a-wall frustration. Scratch that: two well-aimed sneezes from a wolf and I'm a pair of slippers. What in the world can I use against these things?! I've gone through the forums and learned how to block, counter 'n that good stuff... but I can't find any info on this infamous 'leg cannon' move, and for some reason trying to talk things out w/the wolves isn't working either. Can someone please help my sorry gaming?

Leg Cannon: Run at enemy(upright run) while holding mouse button, hit space when you are within range.
If you press too early you will fall on your tail.

It's in the tutorial thing.

When you get a chance, try to jump up a little and do a flip. That will confuse them for a second and they will stop dead in their tracks for some reason, usually allowing you to get a few hits on them. The leg cannon is really useful too, when you really need to get rid of one (or if you're lucky, 2) enemies. 8)

if you're still stuck on level 11, you can always go into debug mode and beat the level. it will open up level 12 even when you're not in debug mode. (or at least it did for me) I haven't played level 12 yet, though. That would be cheating. :wink:

Legcannon

Do not even try to use it at wolves.
Do use it at rabbits, but only when they are a bit paralysed, not when
their minds are in its sharper states.
LEGCANNON ROX!!! But only at rabbits.
If you legcannon them into a wall, its more oftenly insta-death.

what are you talking about legcannoning a wolf is one of the best attacks (if you time it correctly and can reverse a counter easily) ,it knocks them down and you're close alread for a legsweep

You're almost there, Blob! Just the opposite!
I've legcannoned a wolf succsessfully about 4 times (of 27591875981257).
They always reverse it!

Easy Kill Strategy

1. Kill a rabbit or wolf (if you can't kill one wolf I don't know how to help you)
2. Get the wolf or rabbit to follow you towards the corpse
3. Run on all fours or jump so you outrun the guy chasing you
4. Quickly, get behind the corpse and face the rabbit or wolf
5. Shift+click to lift up and punch the corpse through the air. Usually, this should kill them or weaken them up so you can try it again or just kill them the old fashion way.
