So my first run on normal with pubbies. Horn of Magnus, things looked great until that first courtyard. 5 commanders, 2 assassins, and one of them Globediers(sp?). Second run, Just past pig pens - Big rear end Rat dude, 2 gutter dudes and a ratling gun. Finally got done with it not too long ago, got an axe for the witch hunter 😐

If you didn't spend at least 3 hours total playtime during beta smacking the tavern chandelier and sausage around, then I don't know what you're doing with your life and want no part of it. I liked to beat the plate of eggs by the forge and watch it make splashy effects.

Also during on of the Q&A's the talked about adding in some chaos stuff too! The doom wheels are just an objective in one mission, they don't move or do anything. I played through the entire game on Normal and didn't see any new specials, in fact my one complaint right now is that it was mostly more of the same. Wizard's Tower is by far the most inventive level and there's just a lot of sewers and towns and carry the kegs and cut these ropes going on for the rest of the game. Final level spoilers: Even the final level is literally just "carry the kegs, cut the ropes" rehashed again with some lightning thrown at you. It was really anticlimactic and the whole group was surprised at it being so disappointing. All the complaints about it being samey aside, I'm really enjoying it and am looking forward to moving on to Nightmare. E: I feel like I should clarify before I get jumped: I understand it's a game set in and under a city, I wasn't expecting anything exotic. I'm only a little disappointed that with the exception of Wizard's Tower, Engines of War, and Garden of Morr, the rest of the levels are all minor variations on things you've seen in your first 30 minutes of the game. Those three levels shine above all the others because not only are they unique setpieces, they're creatively designed and force a different approach than "check every house, keep moving up stairs". I really like this game and I would not consider the level design a failure. Sloane fucked around with this message at 23:13 on Oct 23, 2015 |

Friendly reminder to new players joining us. Join the Goonintide group on steam and hang out in chat to play with goons. Also install mumble and join the CTS mumble (info can be found in the PGS forum). Remember if you aren't playing with goons or friends then you are doing it wrong. Most of us are really friendly with new people and have no problem helping you learn the game.

Last night's experiments were hilarious. When I could not find goons to play with, I touched the pubbie stove. I joined to the very end of a map, I did not get a chance to play, I went immediately to the loot screen. Sure, I'm not going to use that green hammer for anything, but what a loving miracle. I also tried playing a game without pubbies. The bots were boring but sufficient, up until the point where the Rat Ogre punched me out on the elevator platform up to the Horn. My AI teammates were happy to stand in a cluster around me after killing the Ogre, watching me die. They just could not pick me up when I was laying in the corner of the platform.  In one of our Goon games on Hard Horn of Magnus, a globadier popped out in the middle of a Stormvermin patrol while we hid in a building, and threw a perfect poison gas bomb that went right into our building. And then the loving Stormvermin all charge in! Fortunately, close quarters + player-thrown bomb = dead rats. We limped out of that fight bitching profusely, but alive.

Just wait till the first free DLC, which will also include 'tactical teams', like in Payday. But instead of in Payday when no one cared, it'll be horde followed by 2 Packmasters backed up directly by a Stormvermin patrol. Also gutter runners jumping around while gattling rats fire from overlapping fire positions.

Does the game still look pretty at medium settings? Maybe I'll just wait until I upgrade...which won't be until I get my tax refund early next year.

I made it halfway before we got flanked by four stormvermin, a gunner, and a gas rat (in a mini-horde). We had 6 special kills (ogre, 1 gas rat, 2 gunners, and 2 assassins), and 25 stormvermin kills. On normal.

I am glad there is a level with a bunch of storm vermin. Makes a single target high damage spec useful.

While this is downloading, does anyone have some basic "how to not be a complete poo poo" tips? I played L4D and L4D2 so have some idea about things like "don't run off into the woods screaming about how nobody is supporting you" and "everyone jump off gaps at the same time" but its been a while and I hate being a stupid pubbie who doesn't know where the block button is, or whatever (or in L4D1's case, that you can beat everything by hiding in a closet and holding melee/autoshotgun)

Blocking helps a lot. Never forget to block and push rats over to get yourself some space.

ran through the missions with fellow goons on normal, had a good time. Normal is pretty easy and I'm surprised people can have problems with it; nobody died once during our run through. Pretty solid missions, though. No really new mission types, though; lots of barrel shifting and chain smashing antics all around. e: Further "how not to be poo poo" tips; mind your positioning and move around during your attacks. if you're charging an attack, you shouldnt let yourself be in range of your enemies until you swing. Blocking is great, but the best way to not get hit is to not be there. Tiler Kiwi fucked around with this message at 00:54 on Oct 24, 2015 |
