SymmetryrtemmyS posted:The only similarity that they share is that they're both guns and semiautomatic, as far as I can see. The pistols fire faster, do less damage, and don't have a scope. This is exactly why people are somewhat against having a huge fuckoff elephant-gun revolver because at that point it basically becomes identical to a sharpshooter weapon. Those other analogies were so remarkably bad and missed the point by so far that they're not worth addressing.

Gunslinger has no class weapons or skills, just automatically dual wields every weapon Dual Pulverizers Dual AK103s Dual Flamethrowers Dual AA12s Dual RPG-7Vs

i see a ton of speculation in this thread that can probably be answered by playing KF1 or some of the mods for KF1 where there were active gunslinger perks also if you're bored with the current content, then check out the RPG servers on HOE difficulty or try playing servers with all sorts of custom maps

I feel like gunslinger is going you be trying to achieve a really old western movie feel and have a lot of stuff concerning diving around and a lot of stuff with zed time. Let me dive over a table while headshotting things in slow motion with dual pistols and I'll be happy

If anything, it was more similar to Commando. I think goons need to just calm down and accept what comes. There's no point saying that this nonexistent game feature will totally obsolesce this other nonexistent game feature when you haven't tried either and don't know what's planned. Speculation is one thing, but disapproving of (imagined) dev actions? This is as bad as TVIV, where people threaten to leave a show because of speculation of future events. I don't think adding an elephant pistol will obviate Sharpshooter's role at all. Sharpshooter has historically been about getting headshots to disable or outright kill big enemies. Getting consistent headshots with a scopeless pistol is not going to be easy, and taking the time to line them up will be a waste of time (unless they have a headshot bonus like SS do). Sharpshooter isn't about just scoring high damage shots, it's about taking out the high priority targets rather than the trash, so you don't waste your limited ammo reserves and because you fire pretty slowly. That isn't a role I see Gunslinger shoehorning into. SymmetryrtemmyS fucked around with this message at 21:17 on Aug 24, 2015 |

Whoever designs the gunslinger just needs to play through Call of Juarez Gunslinger two or three times and then do that. They've already got the slow-mo part!

The perk that let you reload faster by mashing the reload button was so simple but so perfect.  MORE BULLETS LET'S GO COME ON AWW YEAH

I really hope the gunslinger's melee is just pistol whipping with an unloaded revolver, and hitting reload lets you spin it infinitely.

I forget what modded KF1 server it was, but I got a few levels into some custom Gunslinger perk. I remember you kept getting bigger clips as you leveled, and with dual 9mm you could hold down LMB and fire crazy fast, it was basically a mini-mac10 in each hand. Commando did more damage but the strength of Gunslinger was being able to carry more and more clips so after a while you could be continually firing for the entire wave if you didn't waste too much ammo. There was also COWBOY MODE where if you had light armor and two pistols out you moved faster and did bonus pistol damage. It was pretty fun, so TW either do that or yea just copy a bunch of Call of Juarez: Gunslinger code and paste it into the next content update Theta Zero posted:I really hope the gunslinger's melee is just pistol whipping with an unloaded revolver, and hitting reload lets you spin it infinitely. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHlldvAVBnE

Spinning revolvers allows you to juggle clots. Level up spinning to juggle bigger enemies.

On those servers though I think the class was called "Pistol Pro".

Rumor is that the update drops today. Questioner hasn't been seen in a while so that seems plausible. There's some chatter about an "opt-in beta" in the future on the official forums that has everyone going apeshit

Lemon Curdistan posted:Opt-in as in "select the beta build from the settings on Steam so that they don't release an untested build and people who don't want to beta test can continue playing the stable build." I actually thought we would be getting the frequent (not daily, maybe weekly) builds through that feature rather than what we're getting. I'd prefer it for sure, i'd get to play with the cool new poo poo.

why dont you just opt-in its like 2 or 3 clicks also maybe you can handle that poo poo but have you ever talked to another gamer or even read this very thread, if things don't work 100% perfectly then there is a lot of pissing and moaning about how THEY BOUGHT A GAME so good on you i guess for being an ultra mature gamer that can totally handle unfinished content but most people that play video games are dumb shitlords who cant, even if its early access

I love it if Gunslinger had a level 5 skill that made every X bullets automatically bounce to the next closest target. Maybe a higher count if the initial is a headshot. The game actively discourages you from camping, thank god but some traps or turrets would be very welcome to help aid area denial or escapes.

Borderlands 2? Although Demolitions sort of does the traps with pipe bombs, so since he's dropping in the next update we'll see if pipe bombs are part of it. But the turret thing was done in custom servers in KF1, I remember people setting up those white portal robots in doorways to just shoot everything and keep out enemies, and since the AI wasn't built to target non-player entities that well a lot of times they'd just gather in front of it to get shot and stare at you.

Here's some of what stood out to me:quote:M4 now carries 8 shells in the magazine So maybe the M4 will be viable as a middle step thanks to the bigger mag and faster(?) reload, especially since... quote:AA12 price increased Also the flamethrower is going to be increased to T3 pricing so no more cheap funsies. Just gonna paste the changes about the monsters: quote:Husk
