The thing that I don't like is that taking cover gets me killed more than standing in the open. Because you get downed and can't shoot anyone. Also NPCs seem to be able to throw grenades farther than grenade launcher.

Yeah, IMO it's kind of a repeated formula that they really didn't innovate all too well. To me, it seems like a generic FPS with Diablo 2 elements thrown in. And by D2 elements, I mean the random drops, stats, etc. Diablo 2 isn't the only game that has done this, but it is far more well known than others.
Yea I know, but this is where Google led me. So far the only solutions for not hearing whatever is infront of you is... don't use your headphones. And I really want to use my headphones. Monitor speakers is really not ideal in my situation.

The point of cover is to stop being shot though, so how are you dying?

Don't forget axes. They can throw axes with pinpoint accuracy from across a map.

Get surround headphones, you're probably dealing with Stereo, they just do left and right.

Update 1.0.1 Notes:

- Characters that have lost skill points will have the lost points refunded
- Clients will no longer lose proficiency progress upon leaving a co-op game
- Item cards now display the intended five lines of detail text
- Lilith's Phase strike and melee attacks from Phase Walk now function as intended
- Voicechat: users can now control volume and individually mute players
- Fixed a bug that sometimes caused CL4P-TP to stop progressing during the introduction
- Server browser population times have been improved
- Server information should now always display the correct plot mission
- Benchmarking feature now works as intended
- Nvidia 3D Vision visuals now render shadows correctly (requires minimum 195.28 drivers, available from nVidia)
Remember it's a console port, they don't care.

But hey, they fixed my Lilith!
