It's doing fine, actually.
The only DLC I want is the Patriarch's jorts for the player. I think the priest dude would look great in them.

Killing Floor isn't really an Early Access game. I know it claims to be Early Access, but that's just an excuse for launching with less than half the content expected. It was actually just a normal full release with missing content but they won't admit it.

Look at this guy, he found out Tripwire's nefarious plan of releasing an unfinished game into early access.

camels aren't so great
"alpha" "beta" "early access" "release" are all words that have completely lost their meaning and can be used interchangeably, so easily confused kids being confused by confusing usage of confusing terms isn't exactly shocking.

blame the PR for shaping public perceptions like that (and the public like us for eating it up).

Well there is Early rear end DayZ Style and Early Access KF2 Style. I mean the term is pretty straight forward. Access to a game, before it is finished.
Alpha/Beta are more oriented towards the old model of:
Adding Features: Alpha
Polishing and adding Content: Beta
Publisher getting Money: Closed Beta -> Pre-Order -> Release
Fixing the game: Post-Release
This usually means post-release support is limited to a rather short timeSpan.

While the "new" model:
Early rear end: Get to play an unfinished game for 1-10 years and pay for it!
Open Beta: Get to play an unfinished game for 1-10 years and enjoy the Freemium model
Release: Line in the Sand (or a big SALE)
Post-Release: Pay more for Win/Cosmetics or just because (at least the game might get new stuff for a long time (or not))

Adding content/features and bug fixing can happen in every step (or not at all). Also :homebrew:

Whoever earlier in the thread said that even if Tripwire kept the original design, people would still complain, you're right on the money. People are now complaining that the Patriarch's returning voice actor is from a lack of creativity and laziness while complaining that they wanted him to keep his old design because they're changing too many things.

No matter where you go, there will always be complaints, because there are enough human beings out there that every opinion it's possible to have on absolutely any issue actually exists. It's got nothing to do with computer nerds hating everything. The internet gives people in general an easy way to voice what they think, that's all. Whether or not those complaints have legitimacy is the important part. The patriarch's missing jorts, for example, is a legitimate complaint because everybody in the game should be wearing jorts.

Played this game after a while. I love demo but, he still needs more ammo. During boss fights I run out of all my ammo and have to run around, praying for ammo boxes.

Edit: I'm sick of the RPG-7, I see it in a ton of games. I want the fat LAW that nobody used. I loved that weapon.

Hm, so how exactly does Lacerate work? Do Medic weapons gain some small damage over time, or did they always have that and Lacerate simply increases it. Does it work against Hans?
Should I just go with Regeneration and wait until level 20 when my healing darts poison Zeds?

get regen because lacerate is the worse of two bad options and get vaccination because it's arguably the best skill in the game

so now that there's a 50/50 chance of Hans/Pat.... does that mean there's a 50/50 chance you'll prepare incorrectly for the wrong boss and rage yourself to death?? that seems like it could be frustrating

Two docs, a zerker, three supports with AA-12s, plus spares bought with the party's collective money. Should work against the Matriarchy even.

As far as I've seen, they've only shown off Patriarch on the new map (?), so maybe it's map-based. Paris will always have Hans, the new map will always have Patriarch, etc. I think that'd probably be better gameplay-wise than having it be chance based.

It's for when you decapitate zeds with your weapons. They'll die faster when they lose their head, so they don't become an issue while they wander around.

They specifically said its going to be random.

Curious how zerking vs the patty will be since I don't play any other class.

Oh. Welp.

Maybe they'll have a sound cue near the start of the game like the "hey a FP/scrake/etc spawned" noises so that you can know in advance.

Eh, not really. Considering how most of the classes deal bullet type damage it is very unlikely we will see a boss resistant to bullets, a zerker to take damage is always handy and two doctors should always be enough to keep a team alive.

Not the most fun, but probably the most reliable boss-killer team for people who care about their win ratios.

Pants inhibit your range of motion. This is clearly a tactical decision.
