Why yes. Yes it does. And yes, it has been noted before. Thank you for keeping us updated. I know it is hard with the search bar gone and all...

Yarly.

It just annoys me a bit. Y'know, being a grammar/spelling nazi and all =) And it doesn't mean I am hating, the ugh meant more like, "Woah, this is going a little too deep for my likes..." Peace not war? Haha you must have read my mind I started my reply to you with something about grammer Nazis, that little voice told me I know better though. I wouldnt worry about going to deep, you wont drown! Your right though, PAX bro. I dunno. The last time I went too deep, and I almost killed my girlfriend

Yes it was a good thought, so why the UGH. Not really? His idea is confirmed by the game code that an entity can be made invisible to the player or players.

A. Good thought, but still...... ugh. Not really. B. Spelling much?

yes but you dont shoot cats off on catapault's you shoot rocks, so maybe you didnt shoot zombies off the zombapault you shoot PEOPLE The hell did you get cats from outta this??

throw down the eq on the first bit. music is a bit loud, or wait to talk. Great job!

it is not completly random .. u just teleport very close 2 a random perk or by the PaP....i have tried this so many times.. trust me.. This is very correct. Though you do fly out a few feet up every few times.

A little far fetched there. Haha, made me laugh though. But he says brother in arms. And its kinda slurred together with his Japanese accent.

Oh come on. They're russian zombies, so they're totally drunk. Nah. hehe =P I think they are a little fresher than the other zombies, thus have more bodily control. If you think of it as a virus, you are a little more able bodied in the early stages, whilist if you are entirely sick, you can't do too much. Also, the zombies that dodge and dive and do crazy stuff are spetsnaz zombies. They can be noted by their uniform, and as often, gas masks. And yes, it is a popular theory that once you kill a zombie, the virus itself is also destroyed, thus reverting the zombie back to a human. Even the zombie survival guide says so! =D

Fixed, and good find my comrade!

There we go. the second time. lulz.

yeah, gimmie a sec...

:facepalm:

This sounds the most plausible, I'll have to check... And I am quite sure that it is not from stamin up. I know the song it plays, and I like it =)

Playing around on ascension, and had my headphone volume extremely high. We had finished majority of the easter egg, except past collecting letters. I was chilling out by the stamin up, and heard a whistle similar to that of the rest of the puzzle. I looked up and to the left, on top of the building where you open the next door, and I believe I have found a generator similar to that of the one that is sucked into the gersch device for the first step. The whistle was quite evident, but I would like someone else to help confirm this. Crappy cell phone picture to come soon.

Just hit me up man =)

Hullo all. Finally downloaded the maps. Played for a good three hours today, and have been trying out the standard easter eggs out. So far, I have done the total mystery man egg, thanks to a few dedicated friends. Thus is my total report as follows: The easter egg runs normally, as was in xbox. Did the standard one first found, luna, and everything proceeded normally. Lost the DM's at 90 seconds. No other oddities to report. Tryed out hitsam and hyena, got a few different messages, as were stated in other forums too (system overload and safety protocols) . DM's lasted shorter on one try. I'll keep trying through the night tonight. Feel free to join/add me. My PSN is in my sig. I'll be on around 11:30 mountain standard time (US). I will be adding more to this "patch" idea that people were talking about.

The last one. Oh....the last one.

I think he was drunk, so its all a blur to us. The end.

Although apparently he would only be briefly seen, this would match up considering Nikolai was sent to war after killing his wives. Not really related to anything, but still, as far as zombies characters go, this is pretty cool. Good find. But little evidence. He just kinda looks like him. Character designs are often reused, as there is no need to create more data. Keep on truckin'!

I can assist in the twitter, if you would like. I'm pretty close to twitter, haha!

urghhhhhhhhhh.... looking right now.....

Found something to record. Seems to work when I tried it... http://www.extralabs.net/skype-recorder.htm

I can also provide music, my own such. Just tell me what to make =)
