A game where my Bemani exposure pays off, by playing songs on the equivalent of Shuffle Hidden. :) (Random Notes, No Bottom) Now if my computer would just quit hogging CPU time at bad moments....
Is it safe to assume the reason there are 1% power areas (the far right edge of the map) is because otherwise you could just blast everything with Merlin and never bother to summon? That's what I did, and I got my rear handed to me in the 1% section as a result. Then it crashed. :)
I bought all four transmission methods, bought the resistances up a level or two each, and just went for quiet infection with no visible symptoms (fever, nausea). Then when they reported work on a vaccine, I bought some Drug Resistance and started adding lethal symptoms. The first vaccine failed, and the hospitals fell before they could make another. Worked for me, anyway.
I've played four or five times, and liked the Chainsaw quite a bit. Then I found the Compound Bow this play-through. Yum. I kept both of those weapons for myself, and let the other survivors play with the guns. The bow is very nice.
The dot representing the player on the map needs to be a color more obviously different from all the other dots. That, or the map should center on the player.
