[x]We're walking into a trap.
[x]Carl: we're not a coward and we don't have time to explain, but we're all dead if we go to this meeting.
[x]Tell the driver to turn the car around or just shoot us and get it over with.

Guys, guys. We already tried the gun.

How about:

[X]"Erm..has there been any rumours about some animal-mask-wearing murderhobo killing gangsters gruesomely, or something like that? Just asking."

[X] Ask for a gun.
Don't we already have a gun? Still, with another gun and we can go akimbo.
Let see if these animal-masked protags bleed by shooting them with as much bullets as we can. When I think about it, are they only equipped with melee weapons?
 
Oh this so REEKS of cosmic horror. Of course, the existence of a mook in general is Cosmic Horror, what with only being there to die for a alien, colossal beings amusement.

a few notes/thoughts

-very likely that 'ol chickenhead murderhobo loops the mission too until he kills everyone in the area successfully
--not sure if his loops affect our loops
--if it does, and if we and chickenhead kill each other at the same time (or close enough), it's likely that he'll deduce our looping ability, up our threat rating, and make us a primary target
--same could also happen if we made him bleed when the others weren't even able to touch him, but he still kills us. Whatever we did at that loop would very likely be invalidated for future attempts


-he was most vulnerable when everyone was shooting at the doors, right after he gutted the first poor schmuck off-screen.
--while he's pinned down, if can somehow acquire one, toss a grenade (or even a molotov cocktail) into the room he's in
--if that's not possible, we could follow dave (sleazy guy) while he's checking out the room
---Best case scenario: we shoot chickenhead while he's busy jamming the crowbar on dave's shotgun
---Worst case: we get a crowbar into the nut then into our braincase, before we restart the loop
---Most embarrassing case: we do get a grenade, we fuck up the roll, it blows up in our face


-All of this is moot if chickenhead keeps changing tactics, or if every new 'thing' we do, he already went through for several retries
--in other words, it becomes a contest of who's got the better time loop mechanics
---fucking timey wimey bullshit

Few long term objectives
-Get better at shooting. Ask one of them for a marksmanship lesson.
-Learn all their life stories. This is so they can be convinced later, a source of motivation and maybe to instill a conscience in FPS protagonist
-Figure out if the car goes over a bridge. If it does, open a window and jump into the water below.

"...Murderho-what?" Carl shakes his head. "What the fuck ever, guy. No, we haven't gotten them kind of rumors."

Richard strokes his chin. "Well, 'ere was one group of Russian mobsters...corpses were dumped in 'e ocean 'cause of 'ow gruesome they were."

"Lovely." Dave mutters. "Well, it was one incident. Kinda groty, but we ain't Russians."

"Groty? What are you, five?"

"Shut it, Carl."

[] Keep talking.
-[] Write-in what to say.

[] Talk to...
-[] Carl.
-[] Dave.
-[] Richard.

[] Grab a gun.

[] Shoot yourself.
 
[x] Grab a gun. "Hey, how do you use this?"

Okay so, we need to start working out a plan.

First off, we need to keep at least one of these guys alive and, when the masked man shows up, get them to tell us something that'll convince them that we're telling the truth about the loops. Basic timeloop operating procedure, etc. That way we can at least start making headway on survival.

Second, learn more about shooting whenever possible. We need to get familiar with a gun.

Any other ideas?
 
Is it possible to use one loop to just dick around? Or do we have finite attempts and should not waste our loops?
