Fina posted:The enemy teleporting is really, really aggressive. Husks are up there on the "So I noticed this bullshit teleport" scale due to them being the only enemy with an attack that has such long range, nevermind it lightning you on fire. Of my two most obvious bullshit teleports that stand out in my mind seen, one was a pair of Husks being the final enemies in the wave, backing out of a door, shutting it... and then getting my rear end lit on fire because oh look they are standing on top of the outer wall of the map and shooting down at me now  The other standout was just a clot or something, but it stands out because I literally saw them appear out of thin air two feet in front of me. I guess the game was taking too long to have their "Teleport a zed as you round a corner" go smoothly. Mildly related, how hard would it be to code husks to not attack while they are still standing on top of some unreachable wall or otherwise on the outer edges of the map before they even fully enter it? As a commando it's kind of annoying, but as a support or Zerker all you got to work with to stop them is a pistol when they decide that no, no, they are NOT going to come down and will just keep shooting at you from there until you break line of sight. This has seemed most frequent (or at least, I've happened to notice it most due to the pleasant lighting conditions and amount of such walls) in the Outpost.

Much as I've complained over the lackluster zerk I saw just how vital they are to the current meta I guess? Can't think of another word, I opted to just work on my medic through all my hard games and without fail we'd wipe to scrakes either because we had no zerk or because our zerk was super bad and would either run off by himself, die constantly or piss of scrakes then run away and lead them right into us, I've no doubt if I had been playing my zerk we would have made it to hans a few times at least. I also found out its a lot easier to parry the scrake again even if he's raging if he gets out of space with one of your hammer strikes, makes circling them much easier but its a lot more pressure on you, parrying is rough when your ping is 80.

Toss the team a healing grenade and tank with hanzo steel and gigantic armor Circle-strafing also works for scrakes and helps more than shooting them Ruggington fucked around with this message at 09:57 on Apr 30, 2015 |

It was mentioned once earlier in this thread, but the Katana having a special draw attack if you hold down mouse 1 while pulling it out is pretty much the best thing.

"How does it feel getting kited rear end in a top hat?!" I've actually seen a Husk try to run the away from me a few times. He never makes it but it's interesting to see.

That might make them way more terrifying/powerful at suicidal and above though.

I HAVE had one explode on me but that's because I was too busy dealing with everything else at the time to turn toward it. I didn't think the blast would kill me outright. Then I went SPLAT! with the husk.

I think eventually people will figure out how to bait Husks into doing their suicide attack near a bunch of Scrakes and FPs and that will be a cool and awesome thing

You know the door on Outpost that's near the shooting range and leads out to that long path that goes all the way down to the Cafeteria door and the ramp to the garage? Yeah, I had one Bloat follow me out that shooting range door and by the time I got to the cafeteria door he was already in front of me. Fuckers love to teleport.

Oh yeah, whatever the update did to shotguns, it seems to have fixed the issue I had with the medic shotgun, where the pellets didn't fly out at the right moment. Now I actually hit stuff with it and it's awesome

Chard posted:I've noticed a thing where zeds will be moving steadily towards me/someone and then when the attack animation starts, they'll teleport closer to their target. It's most noticeable on Gorefasts because well they're fast already, but I've seen grabber zeds do it too. Anyone else seen this? Noticed this too last night. Gorefasts would start their attack animation out of range, then warp a bit into range. Took me by surprise the first time. Just chalked it up to maybe the server and client being out of sync a bit.

Just chalked it up to maybe the server and client being out of sync a bit. Yeah, I saw that happen repeatedly with Scrakes as well. I thought they were teleporting because of my framerate due to max body count experiments but now that I'm hearing reports of other people experiencing it, I'm not so sure. Also, max body count should totally be an in-game slider option.

Two things: the hit detection is a bit wonky in a way that is beneficial to Zeds. You can be pretty far away from a given animation and still have it connect. Most notable examples are the Gorefast running swing and Scrake spinning attack. Not getting XP is an active disincentive towards playing the cool new maps everyone is working on (or rather, porting from Goldeneye) but I guess it's for the greater good atm.

There's no map white list or black list. All maps are legit for earning XP. Custom maps won't un-rank a server so get out there and try new stuff. I know there's some really awesome stuff being worked on right now by some of the big community mappers from KF1. It's just custom game modes (like 100 player servers) that are unranked right now.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qj00bX6t3kA Not sure if this has been posted, but someone discovered a setting in the .ini files that enables strong as hell aim assist. I'm talking bullets coming out of the barrel at a 45 degree angle aim assist. I haven't tested it myself, but I think the setting is "bAimingHelp=false" in KFGame.ini

Azran posted:What's the planned number of weapons for release, by the way? And out of curiosity, any plans for DLC perks a-la Payday 2? It sounds like it's going to be ten perks with four weapons per, so at least forty without counting the 9mm or backup melee. Thus far the only DLC we're pretty certain of is cosmetics, since it looks like the mechanisms are in place to handle tons of characters and clothes.

I really wish that supports had innate weight increase as a part of their class rather than as a perk, since you're going to have an aa12 at some point and that basically gives you the really tactical choice of the pump shotgun or the hunting shotgun as backup weapons and not much else.
