    Yeah I didn't get a sniper nut shot either, but I figured the best way to do it would be thumper slam as that would at least make them stationary.

    One shot that didn't seem hard to do but took me forever was drilling a guy into the ground.

    It's actually very easy to get the nutshot if you also go for Bluff at the same time... the guy will just stand there since he's not the one you're locked on to, so hitting the sack is kinda easy.

    Well it does require there to be two dudes close enough for this to work on, but I guess that would also work.

    Echoes mode is making my OCD flare up, I swear to god. I think I just played the Rooftops level 15 times because someone on my Friends list had the AUDACITY to be first place on my friend leaderboard and FUCK THAT NOISE.

    But now I have 12,745 points in it and I'm #18 in the world. I should be happy with this.

    ...

    But those other 17 fucks above me GRAAHHH I MUST EXTRACT MORE POINTS FROM THE BLOOD-FILLED PINATAS

    Edit: How did the #1 guy on Rooftops squeeze 22,000?! WHAT VILE WIZARDRY IS THIS?!

    You ass, I was ranked 18 and you took my spot

    Fifteen men on the Dead Man’s Chest-

    Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

    Drink and the devil had done for the rest-

    Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

    We wrapped ’em all in a mains’l tight,

    With twice ten turns of hawser’s bight,

    And we heaved ‘em over and out of sight-

    With a yo-heave-ho!

    And a fare-you-well!

    And a sullen plunge

    In a sullen swell,

    Ten fathoms deep on the road to hell!


    Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

    As a son and grandson of a sailor, I feel like an idiot for not getting this reference sooner.

    Echo is what the demo consisted of, right?

    What's the online multiplayer?

    It's called Anarchy. You and a team of three other players with customizable characters go to a strictly multiplayer map while waves and waves of mooks throw their stupid selves at you while General Sarrano curses at you because YOU NEED MOAR TEAMWORK.

    Mooks come in waves. Before each wave, dropkits spawn and you have 30 seconds to use them to buy what you need or want. You start off with nothing but the most basic machine gun, and it only holds two charged shots. Every upgrade and every weapon must be purchased by your own means.

    Each round has a quota of points your team must earn. The best way to get points is through team based skillshots on baddies. Occasionally, a team member will glow with a skillshot above their head. You get a big bonus if you and that player perform the requested skillshot together.

    As you play, you get more advanced mooks to kill and eventually sub-bosses. At the same time, you would (hopefully) be earning more points to buy the fancier weapons.

    I only played it once and did pretty miserably because I had no idea where bad guys were spawning. But you don't have to play the full campaign to enjoy the multiplayer, because you can go a million rounds and never buy every weapon. I wouldn't even recommend doing so. It costs a LOT of points just to unlock your Thumper and fill it with charges.

    By playing the demo a couple times, you know how to use three weapons and can go for an hour just on those three guns. I'd go so far as to say waiting until you beat the game to try it is a bad move.

    I like the name Thumper and wonder if it's a shoutout to the weapon of the same name in Battlezone. In that game, it's an "earthquake gun" that causes the landscape to kick up in a big, slow moving wave that knocks enemy tanks into the air.

    It's way more fun with other people. I was in a group of 4 with Booker the other night having a blast. Plus you can't get team kills if you're all by your lonesome, so you probably won't meet the score requirements in the later waves.

    Gonna try some more tonight, but so far I'm not really getting into it.

    Yes, I realize the dialogue is supposed to be corny, but it comes off as something they stole from a middle-schooler.

    Aside from that, the shooting aspect is really light.

    Also, I feel like I'm playing a Street Fighter game. Pausing every couple minutes to look up moves and try to get them to work.

    Game lost its appeal pretty fast to be honest, echo mode is fun but once you reach a high score then its really not very much fun to grind at a level for an hour just to see your score go up by 200.

    I haven't tried Anarchy with friends yet so idk how much fun that is

    My tip is to make sure you don't already have that achievement before trying 4 times to unlock it. =D
