: Then maybe we should talk about level 4 later? Actually, let me be clear-
: it's a good level, particularly when you realize that speed matters - i.e.
: the second time around - but it's still a major challenge on TC and I have
: my doubts that it's even possible to beat the clock except by fluke.
: Simply adding more time is not entirely the answer. On normal I could
: reach the exit terminals with nearly 2 minutes to spare, which makes me
: concerned that you could make it too easy at lower difficulties. You
: should get some feedback from others on that. The problem on TC is that
: it's just about impossible to avoid the monsters and there isn't enough
: ammo except through killing them. I've tried using that extra time to
: round up the initial troopers and kill them in a reasonably central
: location, but there still isn't enough time, and I still have to scramble
: for ammo. I wouldn't want to try to vid this! Maybe you should just give
: the player an AR with a few rounds of ammo to help them get through this
: level.
There's not supposed to be enough time, or at least, there's supposed to be a good chance that the timer runs out before you're done with Leela's task. It's a bit of a trick, or a puzzle if you like. Have you gotten to Welcome To Middlesex yet? "strive to seek and stay with her. serve her and she shall serve you". Just because the timer "ran out" and Tycho wants you to come with him doesn't mean you have to. People asked for more player-driven choice so I gave it to them, also making this puzzle not exactly like the last one. I won't tell you the answer to the riddle unless you really can't figure it out, although seeing how I added this twist in at the very last minute there's a possibility that there might be some bug that makes it just not work...
