At first the dwarf was my least favorite character, but I think his dialogue is my favorite. And the classes are starting to feel more varied now that I have more weapon types available. Switching to hard mode indeed made things easier paradoxically because I'm getting matched with better players, succeeded on several hard missions and got some levels. Still running into players who blindly sprint ahead while somebody is being dragged or pounced on though.

The Schluesselschloss DLC comes out today, in a few hours. Kinda disappointed it's only a last stand map but $3 isn't much. http://store.steampowered.com/app/437070

The patch is live now so you can play last stand on town meeting, still a few hours before Schuelsuelosloschloss.

It's honestly a very fair price but at the same time you're paying $3 for a horde mode all the while we're waiting for some real rear end content and they're making a horde mode and console ports.

Apparently the patch also removed the ability to block while reviving and everyone on Reddit cried until they fixed it. But now if your block is broken or you're knocked back, at least you stop reviving. To be frank, I always thought block-reviving was a stupid crutch anyway. Also, Horde mode seems like a fun way to chill out for a while and I'd be way into it (especially the rewards because I need more tokens right now), but Stardew Valley is out now so it might have to wait a bit.

Yeah, it's nothing against the pricing, etc, I was just excited for an actual new mission set in an old castle and instead it's a horde mode map.

Block-reving is a stupid crutch but its really handy  Being interrupted on the revive if your block is broken is how it should work IMO.

Zaphod42 posted:Block-reving is a stupid crutch but its really handy Well, obviously. I've used it sometimes too, but I always felt like it was cheating (because it was). Hopefully they just made it automatically-block since there's no reason to expect people to know that you need to hit The Secret Button before reviving. (Or at least add some visual indicator that blocking helps.) Grondoth posted:Man I actually liked the bolt staff's fire spears. They were great on long hallways. The Bolt staff is stronger now so you might get to use it more! It heat-seeks like the Trueflight bow (and the target lock is faster now), and the primary fire both does more damage and has better accuracy. e: Since it hasn't been posted yet, here are the patch notes: http://updates.vermintide.com/release/last-stand/ As a beam wizard (I play other classes maybe 2% of the time), I'm obviously sad that my hilariously-overpowered staff won't let me solo everything anymore, but the patch notes sound good on paper. I'll have to see how it works in practice, though. Luckily, my favorite staff in terms of fun-having (bolt) got a pretty significant buff, so I might switch to that as my primary.

I play this game exclusively with a single group of friends, so $3 for something we can mapshare sounds more than reasonable. Gonna try the free map first of course to decide if we like the mode.

Mendrian posted:How exactly do the payouts work for last stand? Every 3 waves or so, a badge spawns somewhere in the level. If you pick it up, the team gets ~7 ore. On veteran, it's green ore while champion is blue and heroic is orange. Getting to wave 13 upgrades you to the next difficulty. Heroic eventually starts giving badges that give more ore but I haven't gotten that far since they increased the difficulty.

Wait I'm a little confused. Is The Fall just a last stand map and by default there is another last stand map included in the base update to the game for free? Ok cool. My confusion lies on assuming that the horde mode was DLC only. VVVVVVV averox fucked around with this message at 21:26 on Mar 7, 2016 |

How does the health and damage of rats on veteran/champion/heroic compare to the difficulties on ordinary maps? Is it just different names for hard/nightmare/cataclysm?

As far as I can tell, it's basically the same as h/nm/cata. After doing a couple of rounds on the new map, it seems that staying on the bridge is by far the easiest strategy. Ocasionally you'll have swarms from behind, but a shieldbearer can push most of the rats right into the river pretty easily. Be sure to conserve healing and ammo though.

I purchased this the other night and was having a super fun time and no issues. After installing the latest update this morning my computer over-heats and my frame rate drops as soon as I leave the Inn to the point where it becomes unplayable. Is there a way to modify the .cfg like with Source games so I can get rid of or lower the quality of shadows/particle effects/fog/etc.?

I really hate that they reset your completed tiers from the Town Meeting map in the beta. By now it feels like everyone post lvl 20 are playing champion and heroic, and I'm stuck on veteran with pubbies who waste all their ammo on slave rats, run around in the middle of the square taking damage, and so on. In the games where I get paired with at least one other competent player, I've had the host leave/crash after we've gone past wave 14, which means no progress and no reward. The other new map is cool though, still trying to get through it on heroic.

ElectricWizard posted:Yeah, I meant getting gold on it, for the achievement. Which means 14 waves iirc. Ah, this pretty well clears it up then. I have both maps to Heroic, and The Fall is easy enough should people hang on the bridge and snipe Gas Rats well enough. I'm not sure I've found a good holding out spot for Town Meeting yet. So far, there's one area by a tunnel which occasionally spawns a wave behind some market stands that seems all right, but things definitely go to hell a little easier on that map. Any suggestions? Also, new Conflag staff rules, new Bolt staff generates too much god drat heat and still takes too much effort to shoot at the rat in your sights, and Beam isn't that bad. Hooray Conflag!

The new content is a lot of fun but it really highlights how bad I feel for the slave rats; everytime I see a wave of pinkies pile out of the sewer grates my first reaction is "Oh boy, free heals" as I decapitate five of them in a single swing. It's like someone wrangled a bunch of larp dorks, gave them lovely spears, and then hurled them into a gladiatorial arena.
