Yes please, this is exactly what I wanted to request. The alien went from menacing and intimidating to just kind of annoying. Bad AI. Spent ten minutes hiding in a closet pondering multiples of 11 waiting for it to stop trouncing around in the room I needed to get to. With the no melee option, the game is playable, but the damn thing is still super annoying with all its grunting and snorting.
I personally just got frustrated with the save system starting over and over and over and over... you get the idea, no melee after a few tries made it playable
I am having this insane and annoying issue with this game lately. When I first started I had all the options turned on besides speed, when I fell in the first area it was a clear glitch from the instant heal that basically kept me at near death with the greyscale view on the screen. I decided it best to disable that until I unlocked the medkit and turn it on after. Once I did that, it basically froze my colors on the screen to the purple tint it presents when you inject a medkit.
This issues faded away by the third level with the synthetics, the alien so far has been a joke and easily avoided. Synthetics on the other hand are absolutely annoying. I tried aiming my revolver at them and it refuses to shoot, then I tried hitting them only for them to even with the can't melee options disabled; catch me in this grab that I can escape. However, when they go for a powerful punch my screen freezes on their punch action. I can see myself swinging my wrench through the image almost as if its transparent, but it never goes away and I usually have to end up reloading and pray to god a synthetic doesn't see me next time.
Is there any way to stop this from happening? It's really irritating.
I'm bolding it cause people need to pay attention to it, It's a mistake too many of you make, the screen with near death effect and such stuck is NOT and I repeat NOT instant heal, It's the infinite flashlight battery.
