RoboCicero posted:I love this game, but I am also garbage at this game. I've been going for the oasis recently even though I'm hopelessly outmatched just because it feels more fun that way, but now that I'm hitting the later levels with only two or three mutations I have a question. You need somewhere to run to when he dies where he's likely to jetpack in to a wall chasing you in his death sequence. It's pretty easy once you get used to it, just start running from your starting point and if you kill any enemies in the room or hallway adjacent to where you start you can pretty reliably kill Lil Hunter without blowing yourself up.

The way I deal with Lil Hunter is basically by just never ever standing still while he's around. I basically don't even know what the guy looks like besides a blue and green blur because I am always moving. He sounds so excited too. WAHAHAHA WOOUGH

New update dropped Lots of good stuff, I only did a couple of runs,pizza boxes drop pizza now, something I thought they should do way way back, but just sort of forgot about. I didn't get to see what little hunter is like yet, but I have high hopes. I also have a hunch what the secret weapon is, but I'm going to look into that tomorrow.

So new Little Hunter is completely ridiculous; he seems like he consistently drops in immediately at the start of the level, but away from you so the old cheese doesn't work. He also shoots at lot of bullet streams. I haven't gotten randomed out by him yet so I *think* he explodes alot earlier than before (post death, he has more health now), but I may be wrong about that. Possibly a funner fight now.

Well I got to try chicken's new throne butt that lets you run normally while in bullet time, it's absurd. Carried a sledgehammer and just ran into everything holding down right mouse and wildly swinging all the way through, got me a throne kill on the run I was just expecting to re-unlock characters.

Christ he's a cock. He seems like he's on par with the loop bosses now, but he drops on top of you and it's incredibly hard to deal with his weird shotgun-rifle.

First impression looks like he's way worse on levels where you actually have cover, and basically even more of a "gently caress you go home" on the levels where you spawn in the middle of hell because you need way more damage to burst him down now (which was basically your only chance to win on those levels before), and you're probably boned without cover.

Little Hunter is a terrible and unfun boss. They really need to rework him completely, you're just totally hosed with some level spawns regarding him.

AndroidHub posted:I don't think it's by design, last devstream I watched had him yelling "STUPID BUGGY GAME" when a weapon he wanted to use didn't come through with him. It can't be stressed enough how fantastic the devs are (and how hilarious it is when they get annoyed with their own game). They're genuinely stoked at how well the game has been received so far, too.

Chicken is broken now. Probably a bug. The throne butt now makes it so you move normal speed during slowdown, which is fantastic. What they didn't say was that currently she always has a normal fire rate during the slowdown. Once you have the throne butt there's no reason not to hold down right click the entire time. It's glorious.

I think it's the same problem as before, where the fight mostly depends on getting a good spawn area. I just fought him twice (won both times) in the new version, imo the changes just make the old problems with the fight worse.

Having fought him a few times now, the way you wanna fight Lil Hunter is really the same, hide around corners and take potshots at him with high damage weapons. His death spiral seems like it covers less area now and after flying for a just a little bit the spiral gets smaller and smaller till he just explodes without hitting anything.

You can still get multiples of the same weapon out of a big chest. Guess the fix didn't work.

The new hard-to-get weapon is a Super Disk Launcher, aw yis. Nobody knows how to get it, as far as I can tell. The only bit of it seen was someone who just edited it into his inventory.

I just  up a golden slugger as robot.  It was on a loop though so I didn't bother to keep it. The golden weapons just aren't worth keeping when you loop it seems. I've only ever killed the boss that appears in the sewers on a loop once and it took over 99 shotgun ammo and bunch of explosive ammo too. I have no idea what the gently caress you're supposed to do about it on some layouts. By the time you get to it and clear some space there's just tons of those bullet sponge things spraying bullets absolutely everywhere faster than I can even clear them with a blood launcher.

It's obnoxious as all hell, yeah. I think you're supposed to focus down its eggs, since it spawns those toxic ballguys, and the boss absorbs the gas they release to heal itself apparently.

You can be better off letting them spawn, since ballguys have only 6 health to the 35 of the eggs, and the eggs don't drop ammo or health, I think they really do need to make the eggs also drop ammo and health though.

I'm going to guess "Little Hunter" is the 5_3 boss, since I just got there for the first time and he legit just dropped in on me the moment I got there and loving wrecked me. I had a really good run going too, I had full health for almost the entire game and the slugger pretty much one-shots any standard enemy. Didn't expect the little bastard to just drop on me like that, and I tried to run away but he shot like 50,000 bullets in my general direction. So. Uh. Good to know that even seasoned players seem to have trouble with that guy.

I've only ever gotten past 5_3 with Crystal. The bullet shield is so drat good, but I'm guessing Chicken will surpass that in her currently broken state.

I've had trouble even with a level 8 Chicken. Maybe I'm just bad, I only beat the game twice in a month. I don't want to add to the pile of complaints but I felt it was more fitting when the Lil' Hunter's threat came from the environment and how'd he'd force you to deal with the stage most of the time, since by 5-3 there's just so much enemies that having a regular boss fight isn't as viable. Not that you won't be running away from him now that he's way stronger though.

He used to have much less health and also didn't shoot a ridiculous spread of bullets in a cone so quickly that you cannot even slip between them if you end up in the cone. The boss still frustrated people so they...gave him more health and made his attack nearly instant death if you don't have cover or have other enemies to dodge (which you probably will, since it's very common to spawn close to a lot of other dudes in the ice world). Really not sure what the mentality was there. Hopefully they'll make more changes soon. Also obnoxious is actually killing him and then having him fly right into you instakill you with the explosion after all that. I'm having a hard time living without boiling veins now.

Lil Hunter is definitely a lot more interesting now that he doesn't just try to stomp on your head, but I dunno if he's any more fun. If you got dropped in a sufficiently open arena at the start of 5_3 with no available cover and no way to block or reflect bullets you are kinda screwed. But then again, if you don't have a way to carve out a niche to defend by this point in the game (melee weapon, hammerhead, playing Crystal) you were probably gonna die with or without Lil Hunter's help. That said, Gestalt Intellect posted:Also obnoxious is actually killing him and then having him fly right into you instakill you with the explosion after all that. I'm having a hard time living without boiling veins now. This is a lot less likely to happen the way Lil Hunter is currently set up. On death (when his scream plays) he'll spin around in a circle for a couple seconds before rocketing off, giving you time to get away from him.

Does he do contact damage when spinning around? I've died a couple times now just from being close to him in the death animation, before the explosion. I think the ring of smoke he lets out does damage or something. In any case, that's the least-bad part of the fight. It might actually be ok if he didn't spawn at the start of the level and acted more like the 1-3 boss did, allowing you a bit of setup.

If you take Bloodlust as Rebel and one of your allies gets a kill does that give you the health or do allies become a liability with that mutation?

For the time being, you can use the mousewheel to swap weapons instead of the Q key, which doesn't cause you to jump left. Good luck suppressing that muscle memory, though!

The spacebar works too! Got the furthest I've ever gotten today. Looped and made it to 5-3. Managed to kill Little Fucker but then died when I was trying to dodge bullets from one direction and got shot in the back by some IDPD. Seriously guys, don't buy a 30 inch monitor!

50 hours played and I didn't even know spacebar was an option for weapon switch.  Still, I hope they just fix that in the next patch so I can go back to my main squeeze Q key.

I beat the new bullshit that is Lil' Hunter, I don't die immediately in the labs, I get through the dogs and IDPD guarding the throne, i kill the thrones first form and am forced to die to two cops in the second form because i ran out of ammo with Y.V.. The worst part is I even had recycle gland, but the only good bullet weapon that dropped the whole run was a Hyper Rifle that didn't come through the portal. This game knows how to kick you in the dick, I swear.
