Love it.

Turns out the sentry gun doesn't fire if you don't move.

My cousin thought he had me, but I won.

	If a worm drowns as the result of an attack by another team, their drowning line comes from the other team's sound set. If you have neutral sentries on a map and a worm spawns in range, they'll shoot the worm and the damage will be done after the first turn. One of my worms took 100 damage from an oil can/sentry combo right at the start of the map. ____________________ * hydrapheetz puts on the kittydunce hat

Yeah tonight I went to play online with friends. The voice chat is a pain so we had to mute each other.

Then came hosting issue. The map actually broke once we got in the game. The graphics screwed up. The map was playable but it had the tileset of the previously generated terrain, so it was black mostly.

These bugs will be ironed out I'm sure.

The microphone 'issue' can be fixed by changing the Voice options from 'Automatically Transmit' to 'Push to Talk' in the Steam Options (Just do it via the overlay).

I haven't encountered any of these mad bugs people are talking about. Suppose I've been fortunate so far.

So, I've been playing this, and it seems pretty fun to me. I also had no sound, but that was a pretty easy fix. The only real glitch I encountered at this point was getting stuck in one of the jet-pack levels in the campaign, but that's not too agitating.

Speaking of the campaign, it's pretty much the only thing I've been playing so far. Like I said, it's pretty fun, but it got really difficult really quickly. So far, that's pretty much my only complaint, though.

We should really get some Jul games going soon-ish, even if I'm not particularly good at this game.

That's what you do for most steam games, it just works better with push to talk

Shame other games lack that option, like Borderlands.

There was an update that enabled Push to Talk option.

On top of bug fixes and revamped rope physics.

Oh please Team17, do more than bug fixes, and add new features, too... I would love to have more than four worms in a match, even if you have to limit player count with a higher number of worms..

That was just a hack so that the default steam settings weren't dumb. You could set push to talk from the minute it came out, just through the steam options.

Are you running the very latest DirectX?

I got no sound when I tried it earlier because of that.

BUt in any case, D:
