Serious Frolicking posted:I dunno how many maps they are aiming for at release, but it seems reasonable to assume they will come out of EA when all the classes have been released and had their balancing done. What's more, the overall balance will improve over time so each new class may well come more quickly than the last. Of course, some classes are gonna be harder to balance than others. Sharpshooter supremacy is the most obvious example, though I'd hope that one or more of the new classes can also function as elite killers. Ideally since they're splitting the pistols into a separate perk (which was part of why Sharpshooters in KF1 were the best perk), Sharpshooter will focus entirely on Husk/Scrake/Fleshpound killing. I'd imagine their weapons will hit incredibly hard (more so on headshots) but have really low ammo pools and longer reload times to make you really wanna place your shots well. Sorta turn them into more of a specialty role that requires a lot of practice instead of the "Grab Xbow for Scrakes/FP's, a Handcannon for everything else" class they were in KF1 This is coming from someone who only ever played Suicidal in KF1

Sharpshooters will need to be both powerful and limited, but with the larger number of classes they can't be completely mandatory. Ideally, multiple classes will be able to fill the role of elite killer because that gives players more options. However, making multiple classes just powerful enough while maintaining a rough parity between them makes the whole thing more difficult. poo poo takes time, is all.

Theta Zero posted:I love being a Medic more than KF1 now that it has more of a balance between mild offense and good defense rather than garbage offense and ridiculously high defense, and secondly because the darts auto-home and the hitreg is fantastic. I can just run around with three medic weapons and keep everyone tip top and happy. It's great. Try taking a LAR, flare pistol, mp5 and katana as medic in KF1. Then pick the crossbow for the patriarch. They are very good offensively and defensively. Basically every class in KF1 was good if you knew the load outs and the combos they could preform with stuns and flinch moves.

Section Z posted:My biggest Eyeroll on that front so far was having a pair of Husks as the last enemies in my sight down the hall in snow land, I back out of the door, close it, turn around, and see a pair of fire blasts hitting me in the face as the husks come over a wall to enter the map. You have not been out of my sight for even two seconds, yeesh. So they do teleport, good to know I'm not just going crazy. Had a hard wipe due to 2 retard pubbies pissing off scrake, SC kills both of them, then he gracefully pirouettes into the rest of the squad and wipes us out in one goddamn hit. gently caress the FP's, scrakes are the real threat in this game and pubbies rarely let me handle them so nobody gets hurt.

RoadCrewWorker posted:You sure? While the framebuffer can be very obviously affected by corrupted memory, textures, geometry, character animation matrix stacks and in-world light data like positions or colors all reside in the gpu memory, so if that starts getting wonky due to heat or other restrictions (like some intel HD 4000 videos posted here) you'll see artifacts show up in one or more of those, some more noticeable than others. Yeah I'll look into sending a report. I'm going to keep dxtory on standby for this as well. Maybe it can be captured I see your point regarding the technical details, too. I figured that the odd lighting was too logical in the way it actually properly respected surfaces and shadows and the artifacting I'm used to doesn't give two shits about anything. Guess that isn't enough to rule it out.

When I'm on the match overview screen after being put into a server, there should be some way to see my ping. One time I got put into a server where my ping was over 200 (everyone had such a ping there even), and I'd really rather know about that before the game actually starts, I don't want to leave mid-game and be a dick.

My 7970 is fine, worked well in KF2 before this glitch, and a game restart fixed it. It started sudddenly on the Lab map after some grenades were tossed. edit: forgot to mention it happened to my bro, too, we both have 7970's and were in the same match.

Now that I've started learning how to parry properly I'm having a lot of fun with Berserker. It really helps to be able to mitigate a Scrake's damage while the rest of the team burns it down. You really need medics to keep you standing, though, especially if you ever flub the timing, and unless you're some kind of parry god you're still gonna get eaten alive if you try to take on more than one, maybe two big guys at a time.

So far it appears to be an ati thing. Last official driver release is still from 2014. There are more recent betas but the notes did not mention KF. Good to see my card is most likely not dying though.

Is there a timeline for future updates? Love what's currently there but what was great about KF1, especially towards the end of the cycle, was how much content in terms of maps and weapons there was. Factoring in custom maps, it was hard for it to get old.

Sorry if this has been asked already but how much of your class bonuses work on off-perk weapons? Like does the Commando's weapon damage affect every gun in the game and does the Support have bonus penetration when using the Medic's shotgun?

I got into KF kind of late into it's life cycle and I primarily played Normal/Hard casually with the same group of friends and so I'm probably just really bad at the game, but: I feel like KF2 is significantly harder, especially the way it dumps Scrakes and FPs on you on later waves, and the aforemention tendency to teleport them right around the corner from you. So far every group I've played with on Hard has wiped on wave 7 or 8, where you end up getting up to 3 Scrakes at once along with a FP or two. It seems really brutal. I can't even imagine how rough HoE must be. Luchadork fucked around with this message at 18:59 on Apr 24, 2015 |
