26:00 I dont know if you know this, Sam, but if you use Med Kit while bleeding, it will stop the bleed and heal you so it saves a bunch of time. You don't have to Hold F to stop the bleeding and then Hold F to heal as well. Little nifty trick for your next adventure on the bayou

[@00100000station]

They didn't have medkits in the game last time Sam played. You would just bleed out really slowly like Mr. Orange.

The key is to play solo, use prox-chat, and hookup grindr style with all the other solos. Zurg rushing the one duo on the map is heckin fun, chaotic, and loud with chat going. At least a third of our men drop to friendly fire, but that just makes the loot all the sweeter.

I have been playing this game since at least 2018. I have hundreds of hours. I’ve never done but two runs with other people. All other runs have been solo. I was never one of those guys who was just running for KD tho. I like playing solo because there’s no greater rush than wiping a team of 2 or 3 as a solo.

[@ogre7699]

Solo play can honestly be pretty fun in it's own right. IrregularAce, back when he was doing Hunt, made it seem appealing. It's absolutely harder though, and sometimes an even more miserable experience, especially if you suck like I did. Sometimes going Solo is a blessing, sometimes it's a curse. Really depends on the players, your own skill and luck. But the thrill of tackling about three duos by yourself is quite something, I'd imagine. Don't go Solo unless you know what you're doing. It is a miserable experience, especially for a new player.
