Will do! (If it's not on a specifically pirating site.)

Meanwhile, I'm pretty sure I actually liked the way Dead Eye on level 2 worked better than on level 3. It's really hard sometimes to spot enemies that are shooting at you from very far away, and automatic shot placement helped a lot with that. :/

I agree. While level 3 is good for challenges and precision stuff (damn you "disarming 6 people without reloading or switching guns" challenge!) level 2 was easier and faster to use. I'm glad the multiplayer uses level 2 though (minus the slowdown of course).

edit/repost: Here's a trailer for that short film. Looks like a trailer for the actual game to me.

Dead Eye level 2? and 3? huh? how is there multiple levels of dead eye

Arcanum · 05-27-2010, 01:02 AM

Dead Eye Level 1: What you start with, slows down time and you shoot normally.
Dead Eye Level 2: Slows down time, let's you "paint" Xs on targets by moving your targeting reticule over them. Once you press the trigger you then shoot all the marked spots in rapid succession, turning your revolver or repeater into a machine gun.
Dead Eye Level 3: Let's you manually mark targets by pushing a button instead of auto targeting them.

You get a new level of dead eye at certain points in the campaign (I know you get level 3 shortly after entering Mexico, but I forget when you get level 2). And once you advance a level you can't go back to previous levels.

West Dickens gives you level 2 in one of his missions.

Meister · 05-27-2010, 03:58 AM

It would have been great if, in addition to pushing the button to tag targets, you could've held it down to auto-target.

I want a PC version. NOW!

I've had the game for about a week and a half now. It's my new drug to replace Saints Row and GTA. Everything I was going to say about it has already been said.

-Incredible scenery
-Easy controls similar to GTA
-Texas Hold'em has taken control of my life
-Fuck cougars

I love just wandering around the countryside and finding the random sidequests and question marks to do. That and massacring an entire town ten times over, then moving to the next town and Dead Eying a random person a dozen times all over his body.

Still haven't tried multiplayer. By all means, add me.

I am Horrible at dueling, the only way I can win is to seemingly blow the guys head off. Can't disarm or anything, just blow the fuckers head off.
