Re: [Audyssey] Swamp was Re: new version of swamp

hi. In terms of sticks, yes, most sticks will work for most things.
It's just that aircraft simulators require particular functions that
aren't on standard sticks. I payed about 90 bucks for mine. So you
don't have to go super expensive. And it has vibration in it. Rather
cool feeling the stick jolt every time you get shot. LOL.
Look for a stick that has a throttle lever, or throttle switch. The
lever type is what I have, and it's very cool. Lets you have quite
fine control over the engines.
I could not tell you to get one type or another, as there are so many
types. I'd guess that most you  will see, are probably logitech, or
some other major gaming device maker.
But if you go in to almost any electronics shops, or gaming shops, and
ask to see Flight sticks, they will know what you are talking about.
Ask to get a feel of them, and see how it feels in your hand. That's
rather important, especially if you're going to be using it for long
periods.
Also, like i said, look for something that has the ability for the
stick to not only tilt, but twist as well. As the twisting action
controls your rudder.
Hope this helps you look for a good one. Most flight sticks should
work, it's just a matter of what feels good for you, and of course,
the cost. But most average sticks shouldn't be much more then a
hundred.

 Hmmm what is the best stick for me.
 I can sertainly get myself a stick, that can handle flight but will
 it handle other games that use sticks, I can't have a selection of
 sticks for flight, racing, and general stuff.
 Also I won't be able to have the stick on the desk all the time
 unless it has a compact base or can be stored easily.
 I would obviously need it to be 64 bit compatible for my 64 bit win7
 system I'd be happy to pay a couple hundred for it but no more.
 Force feedback or some sort of rumble pack would be good though I
 have heard you don't get the prosision with a ffb stick but not sure.

Shaun:

The XBox 360 controllers are blue tooth, AKA wireless, so you don't
need to have room on your desk for it. If you don't have room for it
on your desk you can simply stick it in a desk drawer, put it in your
laptop case, or stash it somewhere else when not in use. This is one
advantage of going wireless as you don't have to have everything
hooked up to your computer all the time. Just take it out and use it
when needed.

Cheers!

[Audyssey] Swamp was Re: new version of swamp

2013-12-26 Thread Lindsay Cowell
Hi All.

I want to start playing swamp. Is it possible to play it with a laptop 
trackpad, and any tips for how to do this, and what I need to configure? It's a 
shame you can't play swamp using a keyboard.

if you want to survive with the axe, there is a way of doing it
there's a certain way to backpetal while swinging so that you can keep
hitting the zombie, but it can't hit you
it requires a lot of timing, but its doable
 another option for you is resetting and putting points in to speed
and sneaking to max both, then putting points in to the glock and
possibly health and armor
or get enough rep to buy yourself a silencer and kill using that until
you can find loot to sell to get more rep
also on the issue of rep, this is why even a whole day after the new
version came out I still haven't joined a mission, so I can get back
up to a decent amount of rep through killing and selling loot

 how much harder it is, especially to lose all our rep at such a high level

 missions, but after some symbles person kicked me from one, and dying on
 another, I only had enough rep to buy back some ammo for my glock.  When I
 think of all the hard effort I and other players have put into  building up
 our rep over the last 2 years, I feel as though getting this far has been a
 complete let down now I only have an ax.  It’s like hc mode, and has taken
 all the fun out of the game.  I’m over 200 in levels, 1 hit gives me bloody
 clothes, and when I run out of ammo, and try to use my ax, I die in about 2
 seconds.  So my question to you and aprone is, how am I meant to survive if
 I keep on dying and don’t have enough rep to get better weapons or even ammo
 for my glock?  I’m on map 2 right now, and can’t even make it back to map 1
 alive.

Hi, yes you can play Swamp with a trackpad, what you do is use your right 
mouse button to walk forward, and your left mouse button to  fire your 
weapon.  When doing very small turns, you run your finger gentley accross 
the pad from left to right to turn right, and right to left to turn left. 
If you try it out in the safe zone you should hear the sounds moving around 
through your headphones.  From Lori.

hi. yes. but keep in mind, that if you have one of those clickpads,
like i do, where there are no buttons, it just clicks down to click
the mouse, ... it won't work so well. because you can't walk and shoot
at the same time.
