    I still can't believe that Bill is also Father Gregori from HL2. Not because I can't see that as possible, but because it's really damn obvious now that I think about it.

    Charger throws Rochelle-bot out of SF4. She gets stuck but doesn't die. We proceed to finale and cannot start it because she's not with us. We kick Rochelle-bot. We fail on double-tank stage (Expert). Level restarts; Rochelle-bot still gone, friend cannot join game as it is "full".

    Quite aside from how bad bot AI still is (actually saw Rochelle just let three zombies kill her at one point with no resistance whatsoever), that's pretty fucking retarded.

    so next week is gonna be a repeat mutation. Did valve just ship the patch with only the 4 completed and figure "we'll make more in time," completely forgetting what company they were?

    Nah, someone said "We have enough for four weeks." Then they all looked at the Valve Time chart and Gabe said, "Great! Then we're good through 2012!"

    They're doing repeats monthly IIRC because they figured there would be at least one mutation that people would be bummed about not being able to play for a long time.

    Hey guys, using some elite hacker skillz and fraps, I recorded some gameplay of future Mutations for you to enjoy. I did Four Swordsmen, Versus Co-op, Chainsaw Massacre, and Madness. Enjoy! Yes this is real, not some sv_cheats 1 crap.

    It's basically a neverending horde where the common are faster, spawn more at once, and deal more damage, plus no SI (as far as I could tell, as you could see in the video we didn't survive very long). There was a pretty good description with the video, but it somehow got lost during processing, I'm waiting for it to come back.

    Sorry, I meant I'll keep the idea of not adding music to gameplay in mind, hence why i put a break between the sentences, to indicate a seperate thought. I can see why that was confusing.

    Expert realism. We may have wiped once on the second map but I don't really think so; it was all that fucking third map. One dude gave up a few tries before we miraculously made it through that goddamn village, and then we just breezed through the finale on the first try with three peeps (bot died before we even managed to start the event). I got clocked by a tank on the way to the boat but I have The Real Deal already, so only the other two mattered anyway.

    We discovered a few funny things along the way: You can get the Septic Tank achievement by throwing the bile on a dead tank for example.

    The blinding lasts about 5 seconds, which is kinda bad unless a charger does his job perfectly.

    You know, that's not going to be easy because bots have incredible aim. So setting up an ambush is going to have to be carefully done. Minding once you get them it will be GG because they are dumb as bricks.

    To be honest I could hear the gameplay behind the music.

    Yep, it's more of an inconvenience, since killing him makes you stumble and then blinds you for a couple of seconds. The bots rarely take advantage of that though, seems like this might be more interesting as a Versus gamemode.

    Has Last Gnome on Earth been patched yet? My throat still hurts from yelling at a team mate last night after he dropped the Gnome on the elevator on Swamp Fever. Overall we had to restart four times or so because we'd place it on the ground, and it would randomly fall through the ground, the worst time being half way through the finale.

    This happened right off the bat in Passing map 2, we quit right after but hearing this seems to make it a rampant problem.
