Oh one last question, are the special edition things cosmetic? If not, is it worth grabbing?

Entirely cosmetic. If you have more money than sense and like hats, go for it. Otherwise, nothing special.

How would you rate the last stand mode? As someone who has way too many hours into the dawn of war 2 one.

This game will never be on the epic scale of last stand from Dawn of War: Retribution. For one, that game was a strategy game and this is a left for dead fps.

I heard if you are a console player you are forced to play as the Elf whenever you're playing with PC players.

maybe if you micromanaged their play a little more it'd work out! Give it a try. Perhaps instead of just enforcing your whims upon healing items, you could contrive to force whoever has a handgun to get your approval prior to every shot.

I'm thinking of picking this up since it's on sale and its been on my wishlist for a while, but before I did I was curious if there were any goons who still played this who wouldn't mind playing with someone completely new to the game, since I've heard varying things about the games player count.

Patch observations

-The new options at the shrine are awesome and I had no problem throwing 55 orange ore at it to get master crafted on my handguns. Oh and now my brace of pistols has targeteer and 90% chance to penetrate. COOL

-Gas rats throw repeat shots way too fast now. Making them throw sooner is a pretty fair buff since earlier they were in a weird spot where they would almost always never get a shot off but would super rarely become a hero and land a globe right in your holdout spot to ruin you, but now they will throw at about twice the speed it takes for the previous one to fade away.



This thing had spawned and hit us before the level even started. The intro to morr gets hot really fast for some reason, we regularly get hordes and specials before we're even to the first item.

-The shield speed bug was not actually fixed

-It's weird and wonderful hearing the second half of the repeater rifle shots I never knew existed.

Finished my first mission, and I liked the gameplay, sort of. I wish the weapons had a tiny bit more impact.

And then the game gave me the exact weapon I was using for my random end of match loot. I even picked up a loot die (not sure if that impacts anything).

At least I can get a refund now.

Getting the exact weapon you're using is pretty useful for fusing them into bigger and better versions of that weapon.

your gonna get so many items if you play alot that this will not be the issue you think it is

the whole point is to make better poo poo with the scraps and duplicates that you get and its easier than u think.

oh also the loot die aren't much better than regular dice. tomes and grimoires give you the good dice chances.

Two times when a speed potion triggered, my sword and shield's charge attacks just started whiffing through most of the enemies like before the patch. Not every swing but most of them for some reason.

It's less buggy and the Shrine makes the loot grind much more enjoyable but if you didn't like killing rats before, I doubt you will now.

I liked killing rats but the gameplay felt kinda janky at launch. often times, if things werent in the exact perfect spot your hits didnt actually do anything and was very frustrating.

Do a big ole 2handed hammer swing and somehow the only rat that it connects with is the one on the far left while the ones directly in front of you, currently stabbing you, just keep stabbing and not getting hammered.
