Stolen Pixels #97: Left 4 Dumb, Part 15

[DaveMc]

Oh I have, though I'm not sure why. The strip lacks humour, drama, intrigue or any interesting ongoing stories/jokes. It's also crippled by not exactly being pretty, especially with some horrendous text placement. I mean if Concerned can take a videogame and make a good comic with it it isn't too much to expect something a bit spanglier from this.

But I digress I'm overly cynical and this has a fanbase as far as I can tell

Yes, it does, and I'm sure we all thank you for stopping by. "Cynical" is not the right word, there, I think you mean "critical"; for example, I am being overly *critical* of your word choice, I'm not being *cynical* about it. If I were being cynical, I might suggest that you don't really care one way or the other about Stolen Pixels, and are instead attempting to derive amusement by starting a flame war. "Distrusting the motives of others", see?

I don't think that is the same story anymore. Lighting the tank on fire will just dwindle his health until he dies. This was added into the Xbox version I still don't know about the Computer version.

It was on both from the start they added it so people could kill tanks on expert without like 3 people dieing.

Well ya on Campiagns the tank will die on 40 seconds once lit on fire. I was talking about the Vs mode.

*facepalm* that was rhetorical!!!!

 

[SomeBritishDude]

Ha?

This series should have ended when it was still funny.

 

[The Rogue Wolf]

I don't have to outrun the bear Tank... I just have to outrun you.

And honestly, the way his AI tends to play in the single-player campaign, I'm not sure Louis ever COULD feel his brains.

[cainx10a]

wasn't it a bad idea to hide behind a car to begin with? =D
Oh well, I can't wait to see whether this tank is the mythical uber tank, only unleashed upon the sinners with extra ... (extra...) health.

(though maybe not having a twist is the twist..)

Hmm you're not wrong, I did use the wrong word there. Critical would be more appropriate. But then it seems I'm not being critical enough, having only caused some minor antagonism from people who are insistent that someone can't hold a negative opinion without being a troll or someone trying to instigate a flame war. This comic(if it can technically be called that) is awful and I can have that opinion AND share it. If you enjoy it then that's fine but I myself just see it as pretty poorly made crap.

OK, fair enough, and I'm sorry if I wrongly accused you of wanting to start a flame war.

I'm genuinely curious, though: what's your motivation, here? There are many, MANY things on the vast Internet that I don't enjoy -- the huge majority of things, in fact. I don't go around and say so in their forums. Why would I? Why would you? It has never, that I've seen, changed anyone's mind on the subject. It seems like it'll only annoy people who do enjoy it, while bringing no benefit to you . . . Of course, you're free to do it, and again, I'm sorry to have been snarky in my earlier comment.
