What does continue new game plus mean? How does the "+" change the difficulty?
As Ant_ said it doesn't change the difficulty, just that everything carries over. So all loot, upgrades, weapons, etc. carries over from your last playthrough.

Just on the difficulty too. This is one of the only games I've seen where locking away the toughest difficulty until you've gone through it actually makes sense. Because I really doubt you could play through the game initially without the helpers like being able to listen through walls and having the 'grab' prompts, etc. pop up.

But playing through it again, you know how things work so it's almost like you've evolved as a player and don't actually need those elements this time around.

It's bloody tough, but I am loving it.

Nah I don't just go to the Whirlpool forums, it'll be in the videogame section, probably in the first two pages

You can ask them on their Facebook page, if you have one. They usually get back to you pretty quickly.

Bloody hopeless at MP. Getting smashed every game. Kinda takes the fun out of it.

Semi auto rifle (with silencer upgrade), revolver, reviver (highest level) and healer (highest level possible)

Semi auto rifle (with silencer upgrade), revolver, crafter (highest level), reviver (highest level possible)

They're the two classes I run with whilst trying to up my population. Only use the good boosters when you have missions to complete. Use the more useless ones which you have multiples of in-between.

At the start of each round I rush 2 tool boxes and take up position at the 2nd one and just craft and kill the enemy. If you're on crafter you may be better off just trying to visit all of the tool boxes asap.

Go slowly and try and stay around enemy tool box areas hidden behind whatever you can find and wait for them. Always place a bomb (press R1) behind you if you have one so that they can't flank.

Molotovs are extremely useful for the camping method.

Don't underestimate the importance of smoke bombs and shivs.

Do the 400 rifle upgrade first, then get body armour (after initially upgrading your rifle try to get body armour each round if its degraded), then get the 800 rifle upgrade. It's always good to sometimes buy some ammo, especially if your teams getting hammered.

If your team is not great you want to stay 'near them' but don't bunch up with them. Either hang back or stay on the flank. Never be in front of them. That's the best way to stay alive.

Only go for the special execution (triangle when standing above a downed enemy) if you know no one else is around. Otherwise just use your weapon from afar to kill them.

Knowing the enemy tool box locations is the biggest tip probably (they don't show up for on the map).

So was saving the 10 bucks worth it? ;)
If it was only $10 bucks I would have said no and I wouldn't have even ordered it online.

Having said that if this issue continues and I don't receive my game by early next week I may have to reconsider ordering from Ozgamers in the future.

How much is it then? 20? Still not worth it really.
How people value things like this differs so much from person to person

For me, i'd rather pay the $78 on launch and then trade it back asap and get $50 back in value (like i did) so i ended up only paying $28 for one of the est gaming experiences this gen

For him, he may have other things going on in life where he doesn't have that much time for games, so he doesn't mind waiting for the cheaper price.

Some just want it, and want it now. It all depends on the person though

Well like I said in my earlier post I had $35 remainder to spend from selling FIFA 13 (in which I didn't pay for) on eBay in my PayPal account so I only payed $24.

I see your point usually I hate paying in excess of $60 plus for new games especially $80 $90 plus, just for the shear principle knowing I'm getting ripped off and someone behind the senses is just laughing there heads of at us being suckers.

This game by the looks and sounds of it my have been an exception. But to answer your question again NO I stand by my choice.
