Alright that fixed it. I couldn't install the latest SS2MOD manager, so I just changed the bindings in the original SS2 and simply saved those bindings and now I can play any mod I want. I like your mod, but the zombies are incredibly fast and powerful especially when you have very little in the way of weapons, using only a pistol and a wrench with almost no leveled abilities is a very quick way to die and you can't even run from them cause they just follow you relentlessly...

Actually, the zombies are somewhat less powerful damagewise. They are much faster (I would say they are reallistic), but on Easy you can simply smash into them or buy enough ammo to deal them from distance. I can wrench them with a solid Agility rarely getting hit, since they are the same as in original HPwise. You shouldn't die easily if playing Easy, just remember that you can't melee them lazily like before, which is logical, why should you be able to kill hundreds of them without a scratch?

Cool. I was going to start a new game, so I'll give it a try.
Thanks for the mod. AND the manual :)
Pleasant (or no? ;)) playing :)

Huh, why you couldn't install it? Is the reason that you have XP with SP3 installed and manager didn't run at all, perhaps? I would like to know what happened, so I can fix that.

I've got SP2 installed not SP3, for some reason whenever I try to install SS2MOD manager, it just errors out after I've installed it, so then I have to delete the folder or uninstall the game then reinstall the 0.39 version to use it. Maybe I've just got a bad installer or something.
Edit: And by the way, the Zombies are really strong because I played in Hard and Impossible mod...

As I wrote, Hard is supposed to be hard, Impossible very hard.
Fallen+Keeper on 28/5/2008 at 22:59
I'm playing on Impossible :ebil: I've just reached Engineering deck.
So far it's great, a new experience. Staying alive was a real struggle. Like in the old days. :)
Only one negative note for now, but it's a purely personal opinion: STR 3 required for a light armor? Come on....
p.s. ah is that normal that everytime I used a replicator I got "Object creation failed" ? It took my nanites, though ...
AtaruMoroboshi18 on 29/5/2008 at 02:00
Okay, on Hard and Impossible those zombies are incredibly fast, but on Normal you've at least got a chance and it's much more fun. I'm playing a hacker this time around, cause I'll need everything I can find!

Fallen+Keeper:
You think it's too much of a requirement STR 3 for 20% protection, 11 CMs on Normal? I tend to disagree. I'm looking forward to hear you impressions on Impossible, I passed the difficulty with just one build so I could use some input.
Which replicator, could you describe more precisely? Never heard of it before.
AtaruMoroboshi18:
Hybrids are the same everywhere HP/damage/speed wise, it's just your HPs that are lesser, dependant on difficulty.

I'm not saying it's "unfair". I'm saying it's not realistic ;) It's a
light armor. But it could be just me.

Gladly. I'm going almost-pure hacker, with some repair and basic "survival" skills like standard weapons and strength (now that you have STR 3 light armors... ;)) . Till now everything is balanced, I may say
just. It's a thin line. I'll see later in the game if it becomes really impossible.

Science deck. The one just prior to the R&D section.
