Brad would be less frustrated if he just stuck to using the guns. Switching back and forth is not a good strategy.

There's some truth in that, man. I think they're so frustrated in part because they didn't bother with the sidequests. I can say that when I played it, by time I got here it wasn't much of an issue, because I had about 10 effective ways to kill these things.  Yeah, these enemies are horrible, but I never stopped having fun with the game, simply because I took my time and explored.

It is funny in how bad of shape these guys are compared to VJ.  I think it has something to do with Ryan's stubbornness, he always wants to progress the story and never explore anything.  Not to mention Brad's total lack of logic when it comes to items and combat.  Good luck beating the game while constantly fighting for ammo and health packs guys.

As someone that's beaten the game (Stick it through to the end, it's very worth it), I got some advice for them wall ladies.
 
- if you see them on the ground, prepare to press B!
- WHY ARE YOU CROUCHING?!  RUN AWAY!
- Use the Shotgun if you don't want to worry about doing side quests.
- They are dead once you hear that funky sparkly sound that happens whenever you kill any enemy, just because they're on the floor doesn't mean they're dead...
- There will be more encounters later, so better be prepared. 

 
Please keep going!  You guys are getting closer to solving the mystery!  xD

So, after fighting a midboss type enemy, what does the game decide to do?  Make you fight about three more in a row!  I can only imagine what happens if you have to fight more than one wall-crawler at the same time.

Brad, you don't need to stop and look to see if a zombie is dead.  There is a very distinct, very audible crystal-breaking sort of sound every time you kill a zombie.  Accompanying this audio cue is a visual cue of a small flash of that dark purple gas (kind of like a smaller version of the wall lady's projectile) in place of the bright purple blood spatter you normally see when you hit zombies.  If you know this, you don't have to pay attention to their animation at all, just listen for the noise and when you hear it, they're dead regardless of whether they appear to be in death throes or not.  You'll never "think" they're dead, you'll know they're dead because it's a very black and white game mechanic.  Noise = dead, no noise = not dead.

I personally find Brad's frustration to be the funniest part of the BR ERs.

They never should have let brad control the endurance run. With his reputation (and confidence level due to that reputation) going in, one could have guessed it would get this bad. On the other hand, if ryan was controlling, brad might never talk, but i think that would have been better than this. It doesn't fit with their personalities to have brad in control and ryan backseat driving.

I wish they'd take the time after this mission to collect all 7 bones for the flamethrower and get the first treasure map from Keith for the infinite SMG. I became a member of this site because of these guys.. They were damn funny.. And i was about 7 hours in to the game when I start watching their first ER for DP.. their jokes were what made it.. Now whats the point of watching it? They aren't having fun.

Brad and Ryan struggling their way through Deadly Premonition, bickering all the way = The next best thing since sliced bread. I will love it no matter which way they play the game.
 
It is called and Endurance Run for a reason... We all must endure, come Hell, high water or even zombies on the ceiling! If Ryan could make it through that level of Dante's Inferno, I'm sure the two of them can survive this.

Looks like Brad finally got the hang of killing those ladies and using melee items. Here's hoping for an infinite SMG in their future.

Holy shit, you guys have a shotgun and ammo for it.. why, WHY are you using a low damage melee weapon on her? She dies within 4-6 shots with the shotgun. Using this knife is making these battles waaaay harder than they need to be. Using the knife should be a last resort.

Whoa whoa whoa screw ER for a second - the guys on Whose Line were unhappy about dealings? Where did you hear about /see this? That's a downer, I loved that goddamn show and to me Ryan, Colin and Brad always looked like they were having a blast.

I am amazed, astonished even, that they didn't catch the fact that the quickest way to catch the witch is to run past, cue her attack animation and then shoot her from behind  in the cooter. Granted, when you're trying to conserve ammo, it is a less attractive option, but so much more effective then trying to knife her before she grabs you and then RUNNING before she grabs you AGAIN.

Oh my God! Brad stop complaining so much. The gamers job is to find the hiccups of the game and adjust to compensate for them. Saying the game is a piece of shit because of one of its faulty game mechanic is a completely unfounded statement. And if you think you can pull a shotgun out of your pants in 0.5 seconds I would like to see it. 
 
Also stop cursing so much I'm not a saint or anything but this is turning into the Rouge Warrior Quick Look without the hilarious irony.

@Haru48: You're right, no one should say a game is shit because of one faulty mechanic. However, every goddamned facet of this game is horrendus, from walking to shooting to driving. The one redeeming feature of the game is how the overall horrible nature can make you laugh at it. He's right to call the game a piece of shit, because trying to use strategies that would be common sense don't work. The game's animations are horrendusly slow, and it's all too easy to die a cheap-ass death.

 I find it weird how Brad hasn't caught on "glass breaking sound means enemy is dead", not to mention "ENEMY KILLED BONUS" will also pop up on the screen. The whole "Is she dead yet?" thing could've been avoided if he paid attention to that. 
 
I'm honestly getting a little tired of Brad blaming the game for his poor performance. I love Brad and all, but it's not the game's fault that he keeps making the same mistakes over and over. :/
