Harder than I thought, and I end up in funny positions with even funny camera angles. The camera shifts to my feet when I'm in a Fury, and then I find out I'm fighting a wall. Still don't know the purpose of the red gun, seems like it hurts me too when I fire it. Totally got gakked and pissed off by bomb squigs, until I saw one. Oh that's how the grenade changed trajectory. Stupid me for looking up. Lappy shut off on me last night, don't know if it was a bug or if it overheated. In either case boo!

What the hell are you doing? I've never experienced the camera shifting during fury. You can shoot the damned squigs pretty easily before they get near you (their sound is very distinctive). That said, they are very annoyingly good at sneaking up on you when you're busy hacking and slashing. I can't help you with camera angles. I have no problems, but I think that comes from being used to the over the shoulder style.

I assume the "red gun" (could you sound any older?) is the vengeance grenade launcher. It took me a sec to figure that one out as well. First of all, they're grenades. They explode. Doing so near you will obviously hurt. Second, and much less obvious, you detonate the grenades by hitting the reload button (default is "r"). It's not an intuitive functionality, but can be really good when you get used to it.
