    I have to agree that M2033 did very good on the "survival horror" parts and overall creepiness, but in the book I felt really strange at times and it's a shame they didn't manage to recreate that feeling in the game. But I guess they tried their best, and what they did is so freaking awesome! :D

    Librarians... *shudders* ...I may have needed several changes of pants when I first played that level. I enjoyed the surface a lot more in Metro 2033, there were a lot of areas to explore although you're limited by filters.

    It's gotten to the point where I exclusively play on Ranger difficulties to keep myself interested. I'm working on a YouTube playthrough right now, I'll link it sometime when it's complete. But yeah, I've had a few close calls before where I ran out of filters and just barely found a new one in time, the problem is that they aren't for sale in Armory Station or at Polis.

    more 'surface' would be nice, but I also think more missions in undiscover stations would be great, specially Kremelin.

    Yes surface would be nice, with ofcourse the condition that we can buy spare filters as much as we like

    agreed, they should be available at all traders, perhaps with a limit as how many you could buy, but still, it would be nice.

    I always preferred the general atmosphere of the tunnels more. The surface was pretty cool, but for myself, the more time spent in the tunnels, the better.:lol:

    Like artom says after dead city 2, I felt a lot safer in the tunnels but the surface gave a great survival feel

    The whole reason that the surface is so terrifying is that you're so alone. The game implies that there would be more bases being established on the surface making it less desolate. If that is the case then the surface would lose it's horror quality and pick up a stealth one IMO. I don't exactly have a problem with that but it would cause the game to lose something. As for the filters, I think that being able to buy them everywhere is unrealistic. From what I saw, it was mostly the soldiers of the various organizations that were holding access to them and not the general vendors for the most part.

    Well every nation has enought gas masks ( even more ) for every men, women or kid, so i dont see the problems why vendors cant sell them, especially when hanza does the most weapons, meds and supplies trading. And bases on surfices (if they will be in the last version of LL before release) will be small and everyday attacked by a bunch of mutants so i dont see the problem with that to. It is a gome for survival of human race afterall

    Personaly i liked the surface levels more.I loved the metro tunnels,but seeing Moscow destroyed was great.
    Me,i'd like to see more surface levels in Last Light or maybe one big enough to make me NOT to want to go back to the surface again.

    The only area where I had problems with filters is Outpost. In my first playthrough I almost ran out of air on quite a few occasions.
