My advice for you is to change up your strategy. You should have plenty of sheep to shoot at him from the beginning. C:

I generally like to conserve as much 'ammo' as possible. Try using some of Fangus' melee attacks.

... i fail.

What Lacy said, in addition, try to strafe around him so you're facing his back, that's where his weak point is, you can just pump sheep into that, and follow it up with some well placed melee attacks for massive damage.

OANST · #6 01-22-2009, 08:29 PM

Leto's back!

Lacy Hemsmire · #7 01-22-2009, 10:50 PM

Aaah, well, if you're that worried re-start the level. :P Otherwise, we can't help that you fail at Fangus. Ooooh how he is ashamed. And currently going insane. C: Let's hope he doesn't break the 4th wall on you! ^___^

Naww, I kid. <33

Urgh. Pay attention to the bloody Popberry Visions! You need to GameSpeak to your sheep to get them to attack the boss from all angles. You’ll still have enough left as ammo to finish him off.

If this were not someone that you guys know there would be much banning, infracting, and gnashing of teeth.

***Wil*** · #10 01-23-2009, 07:22 AM

I’m interested in knowing whether it really is Leto or not. That’s harder to do if Batman becomes Bannedman.

But if it keeps up, don’t worry. There will be much infracting and gnashing.

OANST · #11 01-23-2009, 10:23 AM

I thought it was someone that you and Nate knew from elsewhere. Now that I think about it I'm not sure why I would think that. But I'll be damned if I didn't.

***Wil*** · #12 01-23-2009, 10:56 AM

At one point I thought it might be someone Nate knew from elsewhere, but that’s because I wasn’t sure his ‘Oh hi John’ comment was a reference to something else.

Now no more off-topic, I want to talk gameplay strategy.

I found that if you shoot the sheep up to the pylon structures in the background, they chew through some ropes or something and heavy debris falls on him. This does a lot of damage, but will kill you if you're too close to the middle.

I love all those little details they put into the game. I found that one by accident.

Almost convinced me that it exists.

what game are we on about here!?

***Wil*** · #16 01-23-2009, 01:06 PM

The latest Oddworld game that came out last month.

I was disappointed in you, Wil, to find out this was the actual Fangus page.

Very disappointed.

***Wil*** · #18 01-23-2009, 02:40 PM

Wait, what would you have preferred? Fabricated nonsense about its existence?

***Nate*** · #19 01-23-2009, 04:52 PM

I'm thinking that he was expecting a RickRoll. But that would have been so 2008.

***Wil*** · #20 01-23-2009, 05:11 PM

Whoever successfully creates the first AslikRoll will have my indefatigable love.

Mac Sirloin · #21 01-23-2009, 05:32 PM

:

possibly because EA did not want to publish a game the ESRB would likely give an M‐rating

I call bullshit.

Wings of Fire · #22 01-23-2009, 06:11 PM

Actually I would have grinned if you created an independent fake page with a few edited sentences.

It’s certainly not fact, and it doesn’t sound like the author (of the magazine article I referenced) is hinting insider knowledge so much as guessing. Perhaps I should dial down ‘possibly’.

I really should get commenting up and running on TOL. I appreciate actual feedback.

Phylum · #24 01-23-2009, 07:46 PM

you make the game sound very fun, pity :P

Fil The Slig · #25 01-24-2009, 12:36 AM

Jump at his head and shoot all your'e ammo out.
Then kick him,and he will die.

Bullet Magnet · #26 01-24-2009, 04:03 AM

If you take the Battery mission first, you should have enough points to invest in the Howl ability, which stuns and deafens enemies and early bosses. This makes defeating him the long way much easier.

OANST · #27 01-24-2009, 06:26 AM

You're all doing it wrong.

Didn't fangus get cancelled?

***Wil*** · #29 01-24-2009, 08:05 AM

The Vamps were ordered to ‘cancel’ him, but I don’t think they’ve managed it yet. Last I heard, Fangus was sabotaging drug factories and liberating his fellow shepherds.

I just got to the level with the Spooshish facility.

And you thought OANST's organ joke was bad.
