There are already two. Mostly it's just hop on the goon servers when there are slots free. Currently there are three servers. alg has one thats on page 8, but he's never said what the pass is.

This game is just crazy amounts of fun so far :aaa:

Phenom II X4 945, Geforce 750 Ti and 8gb of vintage DDR2 RAM, and it runs like butter on high at 900p

Biggest complaint so far: if you're in the middle of reloading and start holding down the hold-to-ironsight button, it doesn't automatically snap to ironsights when the reload sequence is done :(

So far the game has been running great for me without issues, except for a few odd glitches like the spectator HUD still being visible after I join a game in progress, and for some reason the plaza area in the Paris map gave me crazy slowdown when I fought Hans there.

I haven't had any noticeable performance hits aside from that one time fighting Hans, but it might have been a combination of the particle effects and the bodies everywhere. I'm running the game on a 970, and currently set it to 100.

It's doing fine, actually.
Hans is quite easy with coordination. I just got out of a couple of matches with some goons. The rest of the team needs to hold their fire when he drops the white flares. As a medic, just throw a grenade on Hans about mid-way after he starts draining on someone so they survive. The squad can just light Hans up after the grab. The rest is avoiding the super obvious poison grenades.

Tried out berserker and oh my god the Eviscerator is amazing. 10/10 best most fun weapon in the game.

Also I feel like when Sharpshooter gets added, scrakes and Fleshpounds are gonna become a lot easier to deal with (once every gets their Ss ranked up) if they're anywhere near as powerful as they were in the first game.

Also I miss my crossbow. :(

I keep canceling self-healing because I switch to a different weapon as soon as I press the button because I was so used to doing it in KF1.

Joined a pubbie match that was on wave 5/7. Things were going fine until I noticed that everyone in the game was only using medic guns. I was the only person using the medic perk. :cripes:

Before wiping on the boss I asked them why they were doing this, one guy replied that his friends said the medic guns are better and cheaper than other guns.

Think of all the Medic XP they will get! :v

Put in a ticket for server to be fixed, so maybe avoid ~Goon Murder Squad~ for a bit, or at least realize you will likely not see the end. If it all falls through I'll just rehost the loving thing if someone else will host it

I feel like I'm the only one that didn't really enjoy the crossbow. I mean it was really good and all but when I play KF I want my weapons to go bang bang. I'd be completely ok with the M99 replacing the crossbow in KF2 (using the crossbow stats of course so it isn't 250 dosh/round).

I managed to find a single group of pubbies that all had played KF1 a lot, knew everything important about how to play their class effectively, communicated and worked together and helped each other out (and also ran into my healing grenades).

We still lost to Hans but it was nice playing with competent and friendly strangers for once.

My only gripe with this so far is I miss the previous weapon toggle option from KF1. I suck so much at mashing 1-4 mid fight and end up doing dumb poo poo like hitting the console while fumbling around to switch weapons. I'm so used to just hitting my mouse sidebutton to quickswap weapons for quick combos.

Got to zerk level 5, I think that's enough for one night. :v:

Scrakes are fun to fight and I've got their parry timing down, need to figure the FP's parry timing.

Haven't been able to kill hans with pubs, the most success we've had is me parrying him while everyone unloads him but for some reason the medic just stops healing me halfway through and once I die its just kiting till everyone's dead.

I also feel the damage res is a little low for zerks.

The glow is a guide, my friend. Though it falls to you to avert catastrophe, you will never fight alone.
I've had moderate success killing hans. Anywhere where there's cover and a good number of corners to slip around is good, as it lets you avoid his guns and it's a bit easier to just round a corner to dodge his grenades. he chases someone, just run after and unload your buckshot up his butt till he chases you.

I can't get the attack that uses the pulverizer's ammo to work. All I have is regular attack, parry, and whatever the V button is called. What am I doing wrong?

Game's great so far, but I miss the campy voice acting of the first one.

Also I hope they come out with some filthy rusty looking maps like we had in KF1. I like the feel of those better than the shiny future science ones.

I think you use middle use to use the pulverizer, after you reload it?

Also if you want the old voice acting, one of the characters is the same dude reading mostly the same lines as the guys in the first game.

Especially in his last phase, if he decides to chase someone with his melee attacks he will stick at it until that person is dead usually. You got to do enough damage to get his attention or get another person between him and his target it seems. Either of those two seem to make him break off early.

It's the same core gameplay polished to a fine point, with a seriously impressive gore system that makes every shot and swing feel really satisfying.

Currently the game feels a bit light on content for veteran KF players, but if you're new this is a great time to jump in.

How does parrying work? It seemed like holding the button made me take less damage from a Scrake, but maybe that's a placebo effort.
