Psion posted:do you only have one support? Are your supports trying to AA-12 trash? Because otherwise, Supplier is amazing. It only gets better with 2+ supports. I regularly play Suicidal and I think it's fine there the way it works now. One full mag for all your guns and another grenade, just like an ammo box. Except it's an ammo box you can yell at over Mumble and it's an ammo box for all 5 teammates. This is a very accurate analysis. I don't know why people were saying supplier isn't good. I think it's NECESSARY. Also on harder difficulties other classes get upset if I'm not using it, which is fair .

Ludicrous Gibs! posted:All right, I'm going to go against the grain and say I like the M4. It "feels" a lot better to me than the KF1 version, in that it seems punchier and a little faster to reload, plus I quite enjoy not having to pump after every shot. The spread is nice and tight too - great for popping Siren heads. Just fun to use, easily as much so as the hunting shotgun. KF1 the combat shotgun was more expensive by a large margin than any support weapon that wasn't the AA12. It did the same damage as the generic pump. It held less ammo, and took longer to reload. Though at least it weight the same as the generic pump, you were basically paying entirely for semi auto, but also getting penalties (compared to the generic pump) on top which really killed my enthusiasm for trying it more. In KF2, at least it deals slightly more damage per shot than the generic pump... But the generic pump can hold two more shots, and the Boomstick and AA12 show the same damage listing in the trader screen so why loving bother. If it was tweaked to be worthwhile at all, then it could be fun to go boomstick+combat shotgun even if they kept the 8 weight. But as it is even if they cut the AA12's damage or clip capacity in half it still would not be worth taking the combat shotgun. Give it bonkers 40 damage shotgun shells or something, the AA12 would still deal twice as much damage per clip and not have to reload shells one at a time. I am still convinced that literally the only reason it weighs 8 is so you need the carry capacity talent to have it and the AA12 at the same time, and then only those with outside of a medic pistol. +3 weight for LESS ammo and a semi auto fire mode, Not even comparing it to the AA12 that is pretty loving  because it is the heaviest gun in the game that isn't some 10 weight monstrosity (or the flamethrower which is also 8).EDIT: That said, it is totally not a priority fix subject because the Support's other guns are all pretty loving great, so the combat shotgun being something you want to skip (if you could even carry it) is just a money saver right now. vvv I thought it was 44 total myself. Trader screen for Combat Shotgun says Mag 6, Capacity 50. Pump is 8/48, Boomstick 2/55. Maybe I'm checking some outdated screenshots right now? Or maybe there is some quirkyness in what the trader says vs what you get? Section Z fucked around with this message at 22:08 on May 22, 2015 |

I never played kf1. Were there any other game modes? Like some kind of l4d thing because i think that would suit this game well. Except mix it with some counterstrike VIP map stuff and one guy is randomly only allowed to use their pistol, knife and welder. The others have to escort them through a series of welded shut doors as they defend them while they open them. And get to a safehouse/ trader room and another person is randomly selected. Then everyone fights hans or something again.

Don't be fooled by the Tripwire illuminati's parlor tricks! They've got all the content locked up on the dev server! I've seen it. (seriously though, that level of communication is very helpful in a game that's as community oriented as KF1/KF2 and I think will pay off in spades)

GUYS, WHEN IS KF2 EARLY ACCESS COMING OUT? THIS GAME IS VAPORWARE. KF2 early access is released. GUYS, KF2 EARLY ACCESS HASN'T BEEN UPDATED IN LIKE THREE WEEKS! I'M BORED! DEAD GAME! I really don't know what people expect these days. I guess I can kinda understand some of the kids complaining about these things, like those who were 10 years old when Starbound was announced and now they're like 14 and have been waiting for a game for like a third of their time on this planet. All of these early access games, each launching at different stages of development from pre-alpha to final bug fixing have given people a really warped sense of how long it actually takes to develop games, especially at a professional level.

The semiauto M4 gives you faster follow up shots so you run through the same amount of ammo faster, making it feel smaller. Each individual shot is more effective in my experience though.

Man lots of hackers tonight :/ Apparently there's a way to dupe weapons as these guys were throwing down like 4 or 5 AA12s in a row:    Since they're all Support I'm assuming these all involve boosting yourself around with the double barrel shotty. I hope TW doesn't remove that as it can be used to bounce away from FPs and Scrakes if used properly. e: wait that first one is a Medic, I dunno how he got up there then.

There's no way to unjoin a map you're downloading. I picked a custom map and the game started downloading it. I realized the difficulty was too high for my low perk level dudes and tried to back out. All I can do is click "OK" and then the download progress windows closes and immediately opens again. I can't even exit through the menu. My only option is to kill the game via task manager. Edit: Takes No Damage posted:Man lots of hackers tonight :/ It seems more like an exploit than outright hacking. Also, you can still buy and use Double Barrel shotties regardless of perk.

Most likely, like the test your strength game in the KF1 carnival stage. But buying 4 or 5 AA12s by Wave 3 is definitely a hack; if all those weapons we see in that one screenshot are Tier 4 I count at least 17 which is 25,500 dosh. Dude had money/carry weight tweaks probably. Tripwire wouldn't need to get rid of the Double Barrel knockback, just put or scale up some invisible walls at the boundaries, especially for notorious examples. I mean heck, my brother played the poo poo out of some custom server in KF1 run by a guy named Guardian I think and one of the strategies there was to use custom classes/weapons to boost yourself or teammates onto roofs and ledges outside the map just by their insane knockback. Also, the custom map downloading problem I had the other day. Dunno why there's no "Press ESC to cancel" when downloading or switching maps after completing a game like in KF1 yet.

The double barrel shotgun does get you on to the high ground but even then I found that husks will do a good job of making your area a not nice place. Hans will straight up gas your area too.

I remember the old days of West London (UT2004 era even) when the go-to plan was to use a bug with the chainlink gate in the back of the police station that pushed you up when it was closing and then just stay up there on the walls slaughtering zeds. There were no husks back then, at most a Siren might scream some health away. Then the mod team changed the gate to instagib any player on its path. Good times.

Section Z posted:If it was tweaked to be worthwhile at all, then it could be fun to go boomstick+combat shotgun even if they kept the 8 weight. But as it is even if they cut the AA12's damage or clip capacity in half it still would not be worth taking the combat shotgun. Give it bonkers 40 damage shotgun shells or something, the AA12 would still deal twice as much damage per clip and not have to reload shells one at a time.

DBS is a great backup weapon if you can stand losing one of your on-perk guns. It lets any class instantly erase at least 2 lower tier zeds that get in their face, super helpful for escaping or keeping Gores and Stalkers off your rear end, and with a well aimed headshot can one or two shot Bloats and Husks.

On the other hand, I think the DBS on a non-Support class would just get me into trouble when I expected it to clear an entire hallway and the penetration bonus wasn't there.
