HOLY CRAP!! This level seriously kicked my ass! I died like 7 times before I got my shit together. Granted now that I know what to do it's not that difficult but it was hard as hell!

Ironically, it's probably my favorite part of the game. It changed things up a bit and got my adrenaline pumping.

Anyone else have a hard time with this one?

Here it is for anyone not familiar: (SPOILERS)

The arena was pretty tough until you get a good grasp on where the items are and where you can use mines. Fortunately, it's the one place where you can die more than once and not lose your BOB. Unfortunately, if you die right after the arena you get a game ending glitch. Ugh.

It was very hard yes, but I didn't die there.

However, I tend to die from stupid crap like swinging a bat too late or blowing myself up with a mine. lol

I did just finish the game. Got the "best" ending too. :)

I may run through the game again just to see how few survivors I can do it with. I made a lot of stupid mistakes early on and burned through a total of 37 survivors.

Ah, I didn't know it had multiple endings :0

Yes, that part was pretty tough until you figure out exactly what you have to do.

Ive completed it twice, first time i lost 33 survivors, 2nd time i completed it on my 7th survivor and only died twice on the arena. The retrieving of the Panacea part was quite high adrenaline stuff, and the nursery level scared the shit out of me as well.
ZombiU is the most atmospheric survial horror games i have played.

Ya know, when I spoke earlier I completely forgot the arena was part of this area. Yeah, I didn't die in the overall area... but in the Arena I did lose at least 6 survivors until I got my shit together. In fact the last time I died was right at the end and I just didn't see the right spot to stand and hit the button lol. I didn't realize it closed a wall behind me and hit it twice expecting the gate to open. I blew myself up here a few times trying to set mines and not running away fast enough too.
