Hey all. Ever since I downloaded the demo about 2 weeks ago I've been having problems with glitches in the game.
I'm wondering how many others have seen these and if Valve is going to do something about them soon.
The first bug I encountered was in the demo. I didn't yet know about the gravity gun, and how it could pull the saw blades out of the doorway. So, I was crawling underneath. When the zombie came at me I tried to back out. I ended up getting stuck under the table. I tried everything to get out, but after a few seconds I was instantly killed. Just before I died I had over 90 health.
This bug has plauged me the most. It's easy to get it when you're in one of the last passages of the Route Kanal. There's a part where you are supposed to step off a plank to go down a level. I stepped off four times today, the first three I died instantly. I could tell it had something to do with getting stuck, because when I stepped off I didn't freefall, rather, I went slowly down. The fourth time I jumped, and that solved the problem.
The second bug I noticed while playing the Water Hazard chapter. It was during that part with the tunnel and the crates. Unfortunately, before I could get to the crates the tunnel in front of me disappeared. I couldn't go forward. I tried reloading the save, but the game was completely borked. It wouldn't show the menu right, and I couldn't answer whether or not to save the old one becasue there was no "yes" or "no" buttons. So, I had to reboot the machine.
That bug has occured about 3 or 4 times now, 2 times in Water Hazard.
The third bug was the one in the 13th chapter. I lost the ability to jump, and lets just say jumping was nessesary. I happened right after I got off the tram.
That one only happened once, but I have heard from others that it is a known problem. I had to restart the whole chapter to fix it.
One last bug could have just been my machine locking up. I was replaying Water Hazard on a higher difficulty level, and the game froze. The audio was caught in a repetitve loop, and the hard drive was really active for about 30 seconds, before it became inactive. This was right after the first U-turn on that chapter. The thing is, my machine has been at 100% activity for the past 6 months, 24/7, and this was the first time it locked up.
Anyway, who else has had one or more of these things happen to them? When do you think they will be solved?
Thanks,
Dan O.
