Remind me, what are the proposed changes to perk decks?

The only way Muscle could be better is if it refilled my beer whenever I kill a dozer.

Hi everyone, OVERKILL_Jules here, Game Designer at OVERKILL. In this thread I’ll be talking about further balancing for the Perk Decks. I will present the different changes that we're planning to do and update them based on your feedback and suggestions. After a while we will release a Beta with the planned changes we’ve gathered in this thread. We will open other threads as we go to discuss other game changes. In this thread we will only discuss the Perk Deck Balance. All these threads will be marked as DevTalk.
Here is our proposed changes for the first update to the weapon balance pass:
Crew Chief : Move the health bonus from the Brute Strength to the Wolf Pack perk. Wolf Pack then gives a 10% health bonus to the player and still 10% health bonus to the crew. Brute Strength gives a 16% damage reduction while the Crew Chief player is the player with the lowest amount of health.
Muscle : Reduce health regeneration from 4% to 3.5%. Disturbing the Peace panic effect is triggered by all weapon.
Edit : Forgot to add the promised changes to the "Disturbing the Peace" perk.
Armorer : Reinforced armor gains a skill which makes the Armorer immune to health damage for 1 second (30 second cooldown) after the armor breaks.
Hitman : Armor reduction removed on all perks. Move the Akimbo relevant benefits from the Tooth and Claw perk to the Ambidexterity perk.
Replaced the stability penalty on the Ambidexterity perk with the stability penalty from the Tooth and Claw perk.
The ammo capacity increase on Akimbo from the Tooth and Claw perk is moved to Ambidexterity perk. The Tooth and Claw perk now gives the old armor recovery rate of 10% with the old 5% total armor penalty , but in addition it gains the ability to after 6 seconds of the armor being broken the armor will recover no matter what. So if the Hitman gets shot at during 5 seconds the armor will still regenerate at the 6 second mark.
(Edited : Removed 5% armor penalty from Tooth and Claw perk. Mistake from older version.)
Crook : Not specifically tied to Crook but to improve the viability of the Crook Perk Deck we increase the concealment value on all Ballistic Vests by 4. So for example the difference between Suit and Lightweight is basically the amount of dodge you gain.
Burglar : A Breath of Fresh Air get an additional benefit with crouching speed increased by 5%.
Sociopath : All perk deck effect have a 1 second cooldown instead of 2.
Gambler : When you’re lower health than the players you would heal, you heal only yourself for more health instead.
Yakuza : All Perk Deck benefits are split up over all perks in the Yakuza deck. The Perk Deck benefits start at 50% instead of 25% and at Oni Irezumi they start at 100% instead of 50%. In addition, from 0% to 50% health you can a small health regeneration bonus. Between 0%-25% it regenerates faster than between 25%-50%.
Let us know what you think. Looking forward to hear you guys feedback!

I have never once owned that game, nor do I have any desire to do so. Furries and their horrible subculture/injokes/perversions aside, it looks like a really bad visual novel. Shima's starting up an LP if you're interested though.

I don't own it thankfully and also I don't have you on my friends list so you can't buy it for me.

I just built an AMCAR and it has nearly identical stats to my Commando. I cant tell if the rebalance was very kind to the AMCAR or if that just illustrates how much worse the Commando is nowadays.

They will make the actually DW pub-herd viable Yakuzazerker build more annoying to use while not really being good enough to use over the Good Decks™ without Berserker.

A little of both. Stat normalization made most rifles hit 39.9, or close enough, which the AMCAR was never able to do. It also hits higher accuracy than it ever could before. The Commando also has much worse accuracy than before but the damage is roughly the same. If the Commando was made into a medium class rifle it would at least have the benefit of hitting 45 damage, which it couldn't before.

Also two questions:
1) what did the latest BLT update do
2) is there a mod or some option I can set so that when I mask up I pull out my primary instead of my secondary?

I don't normally care for rifles because I've been playing the game for two years with shotguns and LMGs, but they really should take almost all the mods that the Car-4 hordes for itself and branch it around all assault rifle types.

At the very least let me put those mods on the AMR-16 and the AMCAR. The AMR-16 just got the Long Ergo Foregrip which does nothing extra except look ugly and have a lower concealment rating. And the poor AMCAR can't even use the receiver mods.

Due to the pellet changes, is the Joc and Mosconi pretty much even?

Like the only real difference (I think) is Joc gets +ammo and the Mosoni gets better spread.

Zoomed in they can both out snipe snipers and their reload is pretty similar.

Yeah that's basically it. Sawed off + flechette is gooooood.

I prefer the Joceline because it 'points' better but if you really want to be a doomed Space Marine there's only one choice.

I feel the difference is Play as a slightly more accurate S.T.A.L.K.E.R, or a spread shot Marine.

I cannot choose :ohdear:.

Gonna play around with the Joc later with the ammo pouch, see if I notice a difference with it. I do from time to time (albeit rarely) run out of ammo with the Mosconi.

Edit: As an aside, everyone should go play Stalker. All of them.

The Mosconi has a faster dry reload, more concealment, and more spread. The Jocelyne has like 6 more shells in reserve. Although if you want the Joc fully cut down it will have less shells in reserve than the Mosconi.

Doing some test stuff to get the National Guard mutator to work better and accidentally left the game running in fast-forward while I messed with the code

I didn't get shot at until I started shooting, but got downed nearly instantly after I fired a shot :v:

I also found an old thing in my screenshots folder from this time last year. I was making space invaders playable inside the game, I got sprites, animations, and input working before getting bored and making the weapon customizer instead.

After playing around with both yesterday I think I am going to stick with the Mosconi.

The spread is just so good...
