Bug Reports / Re: Autofire mode is missing, making the game a perfect recipe for getting RSI

Thumbs up for an autofire function, the first time I played I had to stop due to that. Fortunately now I have a gamepad with autofire functions.

If they do add steam support I hope they don't remove the IP support.

A solution would be to use a "register this game in the server" option so other people could see it, something like a very simplified battle.net.

IP, NAT, routers and other stuff required sometimes to make a network game work are too hard for most casual gamers.

I was going to open a similar thread so instead I'll add my thoughts on this one. I agree with everything Zoltar567 says, specially the respawning.

A very easy thing that need to be added is a quit confirmation, because I accidentally quit the game once using the game controller (wrong key combinations). If there were a confirmation dialog I could have the chance to cancel it.

We lost our game save because we died together and were sent to the last save spot but as soon as we moved from it the game automatically saved again, this had overwritten the previous save where we had more lifes.

Also related to the respawning there should be a safe time of like 3 seconds where the player could be invincible, this would help to get away from the monsters.
