Yet Another Problem

Post by yrthwyndandfyre »

When facing Bach at the Society of Leopold, you may choose to take him at close quarters. Be advised, however, that when he starts throwing his infinite supply of grenades at you, if you stay in the same place, before long your computer will crash after giving you the error "Too many touching/colliding entities", presumably referring to the fact that there is too much schrapnel flying around to keep track of.

And, as an aside, if you actually *could* have an infinite supply of grenades, where would you keep them?

Who knows... but, have you noticed that Bach really likes explosives? I mean, I like explosions too, but not that much...
But back on topic... I took him on in close-quarters... he never threw one grenade at me... which I found rather strange...

It's more of a problem of, as they say, "keep moving". I've taken him at close range, too, but I made the mistake of getting pinned down and trying to find a head-on assault, when the smart thing to do was to retreat, regroup, and charge in again. What fun is playing the game over and over unless you try on different strategic and tactical options?

Wow, I never even KNEW he had grenades! What happens? Usualy, I close in a little, hit the blood buff, and by the time I've swung the fire axe/katana twice the little bugger uses that crazy mystical hunter power to blind me and get the heck away...

They're grenades. He blows stuff up. His whole Vampire Firing Range, and everything else. The grenades, paradoxically, don't seem to be able to hurt you or anything you're near, but they can blow up everything else.

:p Perhaps they're just because he likes to blow things up... or maybe you're imagining things and there are no grenades at all... Anything is possible...

Well, I guess I'll be dusting off the old CD's and going back to take a look at that. I noticed things fell apart when you shot them, or when he shot them, but mostly I was busy growling and telling him to stand still for five seconds...
