ShackMutations

Description
It's hard to believe that this mutation has been around since November 2013, but glad to be updating again.

(Note for "The Last Stand" update: The reduced gravity modes [e.g. Turbo Doge Airtime] make it so that you cannot complete the first level of "The Last Stand" campaign. In the junkyard, when you turn on the four generators, the reduced gravity makes it so that the dropping cargo container cannot break the barrier.)

Mutations based on suggestions from people in the chatty at Shacknews.com. Contains the following:

Grenade Fest
Grenade Fest (Survival)
Gibfest Versus
80's Action Hero
Grenade-60
Turbo Grenade-60
Airtime
Super Airtime
Doge Airtime
Ultra Gib Fest
Ultra Doge Airtime
Turbo Doge Airtime
Recovery [BETA]
EasyQoL

Grenade Fest: It's Gibfest with a grenade launcher and unlimited throwables instead of an M-60. I recommend you play on Easy because it gets very challenging when friendly fire gets involved.
Grenade Fest (Survival): Unlimited infected require unlimited grenades and throwables.

Gibfest Versus: It's versus, but survivors have M-60's with unlimited ammo and throwables to make them more of a challenge to take out.

80's Action Hero: Reloading? What's that? Unlimited ammo and throwables, and laser sights in every ammo location.

Grenade-60: Sometimes you want to play Gib Fest. Sometimes you want to play Grenade Fest. Now you don't have to choose.

Turbo Grenade-60: Grenade-60 plus enhanced adrenaline.

Airtime and Super Airtime: Catch some sick air when we reduce the gravity of the world.

Doge Airtime: With moon gravity, unlimited ammo, and unlimited throwables, you can jump TO THE MOON.

Ultra Gib Fest: Gib Fest with unlimited throwables.

Ultra Doge Airtime: Combine Doge Airtime and Grenade-60 and you'll be able to jump to the moon and BLOW IT UP.

Turbo Doge Airtime: Ultra Doge Airtime plus enhanced adrenaline.

Recovery: Someone on your team gets injured, time slows down to allow you to recover and regain your cool.

Please note that the first level of "The Last Stand" in the DLC currently has issues with any of the "Doge" modes. After you activate the generators and drop the cargo container, the reduced gravity makes it so that the cargo container can't break the barrier.

TheMan112,

You can play the vast majority of them in single player. It's how I do initial testing of all of them. Select the mutation, host a "Friends Only" server, and lock the other slots.

AlexanderRM,

I'm hoping to release an update to ShackMutations in June. Between work and an upcoming trip, I won't have any time to create more mutations until I get back on June 8, but I've got a few in the queue.

Is there any chance of getting more mutations remade for other game modes, like Grenade Fest (survival)? Something like Revolution Z seems like it would be... interesting in Survival. Is remaking a mutation for a different game mode really simple or does it take a fair amount of work?

AlexanderRM,

Every melee weapon will have the damage boost. Melee force is increased to 9000.
AlexanderRM 8 May, 2015 @ 2:33pm 
What's the exact methanics for Revolution Z? Is it just mele weapons do massive damage and knockback, and... no weapons except crowbars?
When I played it (on a modded map, We Don't Go to Ravenholm 2) there was 1 fire axe at the very beginning. Would that get the bonuses that crowbars get?

thecandyvan97, what isn't working? You should be able to go into Mutations and select the mutationst there.

JeyJey,

It looks like you're in Germany and I don't think the USK has allowed unrestricted sale of the uncut version of L4D2. I can sympathize...I had to cut features from previous games I've worked on because of that.

From what I have been told by German citizens before, customers are supposed to be able to request certain titles at retail by providing their identifications to prove their age, but I can't verify this.

I recommend asking Valve directly, and I wish you luck on your quest.
