They are not that different from other levels just make sure you save a couple of bullets for the fat guys. Lure people to chokepoints, slash slash slash, repeat.

Like they mostly suck in how you have to play them yeah, but the Hawaii levels aren't that hard. Bait people, cut them up, blow your ammo on fat guys and sprays when appropriate. As soon as you can take the sniper rifle, do so, it's a 1 hit kill on fat guys, super accurate, extends your shift look range, has plenty of ammo and generally just rules.

Anyone used all the weapons yet? Trying to think what I might have missed. There's a few level specific ones, but I've used them. Acid in the meth lab, tazer, skateboard, glass shard/shiv in prison

For the Hawaii levels, bring the shotgun every time. Be timid, lure the enemy towards you, cheese the hell out of doors and corners.

One fix they could make to this game is a "redux" version of all the maps, where they're all smaller and tighter, with less windows and no corridors that extend beyond the player's view. The tiniest of bad design decisions can break a game like this, and I hope Dennaton gauges the feedback for the bullshit levels.

According to the wiki there's a hockey stick in the game somewhere? I think that's the one I need to use. Anyone know where it is?

The last dog in the nightclub when the lighting keeps shifting colors was a real rear end in a top hat move. I think it appears only after you take the last guy out too, dick move. emanresu tnuocca fucked around with this message at 12:14 on Mar 12, 2015 |

That might count as one. I think Irvin also has the only nailgun in the game if you haven't done that. Also keep in mind there's a solo chainsaw other than the one the twins always have, that might somehow count as another. There's also a fireaxe that only pops up in one level as far as I can remember, if you didn't use it. Yardbomb fucked around with this message at 12:41 on Mar 12, 2015 |

Technically the second level of the game, first level with Detective Pardo, third playable area... Homicide... on Hard Mode... FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Seriously, they had to do nothing else but remove the ability to use lock on, but they added in the harder enemies too. Also can we assume the army commander in Hawaii is Brandon since he wears that particular 'mask'?

I have to echo this the Sniper rifle rules at dealing with the Hawaii levels. I still have not completed the game but I am looking forward to some of the user created levels we will be getting from the community. I've been ok so far but I'm definately playing this game a bit more cautious and not running out battering everyone due to the large amount of gun using enemies.

Some of the later levels on hard are absolutely miserable because of the "Weapons lose half their ammo on drop" mechanic. Mostly because of how dumb the weapon priorities are. If you accidentally pick up a gun you were saving while trying to grab a melee weapon you might be screwed for that floor. Edit: Also gently caress door physics so much. Edit2: Good God, Death wish on hard mode. Windows loving everywhere! Broken Cog fucked around with this message at 14:13 on Mar 12, 2015 |

Okay this game is bullshit hard compared to HM1. Maybe it's just sleep deprivation getting to me, but I'm finding it much more frustrating than it is gratifying, very unlike the first game. Forget the much-debated rape scene, the real victim is the player who is brutally sodomized again and again. Also, I haven't read the thread since before the game came out, but does anybody else feel like the controls are much more sluggish in this one? I'm playing with mouse & keyboard, but I feel like I'm fighting through a tide of molasses just the same.

There are a lot of gently caress-you setups with windows and gunmen/fatty placement. It controls the same though. Maybe there's some weirdness going on w/ Vsync + pre-rendered frames w/ your graphics card adding lag?

Please turn off vsync literally immediately, from the very moment you start up the game. It does nothing but bad. edit: I mean unless you like nauseating amounts of mouse acceleration at any reasonable distance from your character. If you want to steer your camera like it's a boat then go ahead!

Help Im Alive posted:Man wait until you try hard mode  I'm waiting for them to announce they fixed the mirror-look bug, but yeah, the very first legit level was having a swan fire a gun while big swan chainsawed an army of thugs. I really hope it doesn't turn out to be the same. Predicting that hard-mode's gonna play out like: Ok, I find someone with a gun and toss the gun behind me after firing it as a lure to create a pile of 50 bodies w/ melee, dance back to the gun to bop some fatties.. Rinse/repeat.

I had way more problems with the Richter levels than I did the Hawaii ones. I really don't like how there's less mayhem and more 'figure out the precise, exacting steps to solve this puzzle' as far as the gameplay goes.

It also gives you the opportunity to snatch a floppy disc from the office before you're shot, which the Writer can later find and use to unlock a hidden stage. e: drat YOU BROKEN COOOOOOOOG

I hope modders make more maps centered around the third Snake mask, because it's loving hilarious. Seriously, if you have unlocked it, go back and replay the older levels with it. That mask is pure Hotline Miami.

I am somewhat disappointed. I beat this on hard because I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything that suddenly made the whole game shine in a new light to me or anything but no, nothing really changes other than 3x enemies and more glass. I kind of wish they had trimmed a lot of the fat. There are so many ideas going on and so many of them get abandoned or go unexplored. It feels like a fever dream but not in the good way like the first one.

Is anyone else having a problem on the Vita version where the camera doesn't snap back when you adjust it with the touchscreen? I mean, it seems like being able to pan around wherever could be useful, but it seems to happen randomly and there doesn't look to be any way to turn it off, so it looks more like a bug
