Alienware is loving trash, like all "Gamer" brands marketed at suckers.

Kinda hope tripwire is at least getting something else out of this deal.

I like the TWI guy dropping up really obvious hints. Like "melee bash the siren to stop her screaming" "double tap F for flashlight on classes with night vision". It speaks volumes that this game needs some sort of a tutorial or and in-game info database.

So apparently - if Hans starts bullrushing someone, ANOTHER player needs to get between Hans and his target and just smack Hans in the face to stop that.

Yeah I don't see that idea scaling on all difficulties considering, but we'll probably test it whether we want to or not haha :shrug:

if there was a weapon-based way to interrupt Hans this would be nice. Having to get close to a guy who can two-hit you in as many seconds isn't a level of risk:reward that's acceptable outside a LAN - latency alone makes that a nonstarter.

right now the only viable tactic to kill Hans is for him to kill himself

glad to see you got your twirl down.

I think that's the twirl you get whenever you switch to a revolver (maybe you need Quick Draw?), which is pretty great. Reload twirling with the advanced reload perk is also fantastic, and you get it every time your reload instead of only when your clip is empty like with the other pistols.

I've been using this: http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/showthread.php?t=108534 It has Breath of Death on it, so that's something. It's a pretty good music choice, basically all the good tracks from both the Hotline Miami games with some nice addiditons to it. I think I've seen a Payday 2 music mod somewhere, but can't find it right now, maybe the maker pulled it from the forums.

no I saw the post, I agree

like I feel like fixing hans is a two-step process: fix his damage output and fix how players can interrupt him. If he's going to be the nonstop onslaught boss, a team needs a reliable way to stagger him out of his attacks.

e: on difficulties above normal, at least. Hans is so hilarious unaggressive in this stream

He does need a fix really badly, but I gotta say that's it's pretty loving funny people would rather fight the giant zombie guy with mini-gun/rocket launcher arms, than the little nazi with needles for hands.

I imagine the pat might get buffed a bit, I mean right now 6 man Hoe Hans has more health than the patriarch, that seems a bit off.

I don't know why, but I have a hard time with trying to shoot at zeds infront of teammates. Like, trying to shoot a clot's or gorefast's head above someone's shoulder is nearly impossible. The bullet just kind of disappears when it gets near a player. I wish sometimes for a option to turn off bullet collision on players, but realize how that could be seriously exploitable.

For some reason there's massive falloff damage, when there's no other pistol (or non-shotgun actually) has falloff damage at all.

Huh did not know this, and if the patch applied it to all the Gunslingers weapons, then I guess that gives Sharps breathing room.

Also, if shotgun damage type, does this mean support gets damage bonuses?

As someone who's owned Alienware, the problem is is that their stuff is often too small. I couldn't upgrade my video card in one, because it could only fit a GTX 660 and nothing bigger. Definitely confirmed as ugly, though.

It was just the .500. No other pistol has any kind of falloff, not even the 9mm.
