Hi Darren, I also found when I was first starting out in swamp to turn other player's footsteps down as I kept mistaking them for zombies. Also certain weapons you don't need to be quite as accurate, like with the shotgun if you toggle its mode to scatter shot its attack area is slightly bigger so you don't have to be quite as accurate, although you only get 2 shots with the shotgun before you have to reload so it can be a little trickier due to that. Definitely worth persevering with Swamp though as it really is a great game.

Ok i think I have found a little trick here. I've turned my footsteps off. You don't really need them. But I've turned zombie footsteps right down to about 100. This seems to help me no end. -----Original Message----- From: Gamers [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of loriduncan Sent: 18 November 2015 22:06 To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] swamp tips and tricks? Hi, first off wellcome to Swamp. We're a really nice bunch on there, well most of us are, so there's always someone to ask for on the spot help if you need it. Are you using headphones to play Swamp? If so, go into Swamp's main menu and go down to where you hear it say speaker test and hit enter to check your hearing sounds properly on the left and the right. This is very important. Once that's done hit escape and you're back in the game. To get out of the safe zone on map 1, you just face west and walk forward, but if you're lost in the safe zone, then press your up arrow key which should turn on the forward range radar, and when the beeps sound quietly a head of you it means the way a head is clear to walk, but if the beep is slightly louder and more of a chirping sound, then it means there's a wall. The safe zone exit is on the west wall though, and also you should hear the safe zone guard at the entrence shouting things like "Survivers this way!" and so on. Once your steps change from carpet to grass that's you outside. As for shooting, once out of the sz when you hear a zombie growling or their steps, turn your mouse gentley towards the sound, so if he's to your right gentley turn the mouse that way, or if you're playing on a laptop, swipe your finger to the right on the track pad. When his steps or growls are centred, ie in the middle of your headphones or speakers, then move forward with the right mouse button, or if he's really close to you then just fire your gun with the left mouse button. If you don't hit him then ajust your aim with the mouse again, and also side-step with a and d, a takes you a step left, and d takes you a step right respectively. You should hear the zombie's death cry and it's corps hitting the ground. Remember after each kill to reload your gun with r if possible, that way you won't be taken unawares. Try to operate your turning action with the 1 hand when in a fight, so that your trigger finger can always be in place. As for buildings, they are tricky to get to know at first, but a good way to learn the layout is to go into the maps in offline mode and set both zombies and loot to 0 so you have complete peace while walking around. Perhaps start by exploring the gas station as it's the smallest building on map 1 and doesn't have as many iles as Kaimart. Finally, if you go to audiogames.net or to the Swamp homepage and look at the game's info, you should see a few really good audio reviews and walkthroughs which cover moving around inside buildings. They are a bit out dated, but the basics such as movement shooting and navigating are all the same. Hope this helps, I'm Lori on Swamp if you need to contact me, or you can reply off list too if you need anymore help. Good luck and happy shooting. >From Lori. -----Original Message----- From: Darren Harris Sent: Wednesday, November 18, 2015 9:27 PM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: [Audyssey] swamp tips and tricks? Hi all, Ok so am daz on swamp. I need a bit of help with swamp. Am having issues with shooting things properly and also with navigating inside buildings. Sometimes I find it really difficult to get out of the sz. When it comes to shooting, I am finding it difficult to judge when to pull the trigger. Sometimes I walk around swinging the axe until I swipe something. But like I say I don't want to keep doing that I would much rather be able to shoot properly. What sorts of tips/tricks could people suggest for me to become more proficient here? Thanks all. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
