More Let's Plays!
« on: September 26, 2013, 08:12:45 pm »
I've joined the list of UnderRail LP'ers.  Here you can see my take on the game.  I am going into it blind so the first couple of episodes are going to emphasize learning the game/gameplay.  I hope to get into the action soon to get some in-game combat experience.

Episode 1:

I will also be assembling a playlist with the entire series:

And at least for the first couple of episodes I will update this thread.

Episode 8: I'm starting to get the hang of the tactical side of combat (but for how long?)

I can read the help menu all I want, but you'll have to be more specific with your complaints if you think something should change.

That's actually quite helpful.  Using tab/z to see the objects on the map makes everything much more apparent.  And the tip about the inventory (especially the utility slots - as I can now clearly see what goes in them) showed me how to quickly move things around.  And I'm starting to get a grasp of how to use the action bar.

I will load up my action bar next episode and get into the habit of using quickkeys (I also like the shift/ctrl for more slots) and try to spend less time in my inventory from now on.

And since I understand your motives now, any additional criticism will be appreciated.  And I apologize for snapping at you.

Episode 10:  It was a bit delayed due to more editing required.  The sentry guns in the GMS compound are incredibly strong and I died far too many times to show on camera :)

I also sorted out some things with my inventory/action bar as epeli pointed out but I expect it will take a bit of time for me to get more accustomed to it, hopefully it will make the gameplay a bit smoother with less inventory management.

I have a couple of ideas to try and get past them next time, but if I have too much trouble I will be looking for other missions until I am stronger.
