The train part of the heist is fun as hell. It reminds me of the Goldeneye 64 train and Silo level where it's a no nonsense A to B murder scene. It's a simple pleasure.

Unfortunately the train heist is the second-ever videogame thing to cause motion sickness for me.  That new shotgun, however....

Is there any info on the Overkill MC boss on day 2 of the heist? She seems to act like the Commissar but doesn't stumble from HE rounds.

"THE COMMISSAR OUTSMARTS YOU AGAIN, ASSHOLES!" edit: the mod that turns the Hector in Hoxvenge into the commissar is still one of my favorites.

There needs to be a mod which makes Hector cloaker-kick you as soon as you open the vault. also: ECM duration bug, still annoying. wastin' my skillpoints, overkill!

Honestly my biggest disappointment with the heist is that Day 2 is so cathartic and enjoyable as a quick run that I wish I had the ability to just play it on its own without having to bother with Day 1 when I just want to rob a fuckin' train. Discendo Vox posted:Trying to dig that up now. She has some voice lines that are almost never heard by players because of the circumstances. "The circumstances" meaning "everyone just mag dumps into her the moment the door opens". You know, with all the different things we've stolen at this point, we really could just become supervillains if we hadn't sold them on. Imagine a fleet of brain-controlled, cold-fusion-powered, nuclear-armed drones robbing a Harvest & Trustee.

So I just dragged two 0 level people through First World Bank no problem. They even participated in all the Dozer killing in the Vault. And bag tossing since everyone now has Fast Hands and throws bags further. Overall, I think it's the new players who win the most with the recent updates. A level 0 now has access to akimbos, the SAW (well once you Infamy and have some cash), all the deployables and it shows. Sentries are hell of a drug tho.

We still have basic transporter (Throw Bags 50% further) in the Enforcer->Armor Skill tree, and it feels like I don't throw bags as far without that skill.

Wasn't Basic Transporter just a reduction in the move speed penalty for heavy loot?John Murdoch posted:The other vehicles have never been amazing but I feel like the motorcycles are uniquely terrible. I had to restart Day 1 my first time through because I managed to get Rust's bike stuck on one of the junk cars in the yard in such a way that it literally couldn't move. This seems like something that should be fixed!

Ramming bikes with other bikes to jar them loose is basically how you succeed. Alternately, the best driver (biker?) takes Rust's immediately and goes for the exit while the remaining players re-enact a Three Stooges sketch.

I like how the cars chasing the train explode and flip and roll when you RPG them. I cackled at my teammates through my mic

This is how I had to unstuck these two clowns, they were completely stuck and couldn't move and inch. As you can clearly see in the picture  EDIT: Oh yeah and my friend managed to carry the Chrome Skull to the end of the heist, even though he clearly gave it to the mechanic. EDIT2: And Clover still has the best feature when driving the car around:

wargames posted:I can confirm 24 turret crew gimmick build for big bank death wish is great. People on reddit are bitching about how turrets are OP but I hope they don't nerf them into uselessness again. Turrets are not omnipotent and they can't win you all maps. Sure they're great for defending, but when you have to move, you have to pick them up and redeploy. If you put them too far out from cover, they're a bitch to get and if you put them too close to cover, they won't have good lines of fire. You also have to spend a lot of skill points to make them viable.

LuciferMorningstar posted:While I agree that turrets shouldn't be nerfed, what (loud) maps can they not win? In my experience, they're not as useful on Birth of Sky, Beneath the Mountain, Meltdown, Forest, White Xmas, Lab Rats, Goat day 1, and Hox Breakout day 1 because you have a lot of objectives spread out. A more mobile build with inspire and better weapon skills is an advantage compared to a turret build on those heists. Haven't played Biker Heist enough yet but it seems like day 2 isn't super great for turrets either. If you drop and leave them, they'll run out of ammo soon and be useless. If you keep picking them up, you have to keep picking them up to move down the train before you have enough time to grab ammo boxes. Sure, you can probably solo all of those heists with turrets, but I think you can solo those heists with any number of builds.

God drat it.  Yes, those numbers are below stars, inside diamonds. RandallODim posted:"The circumstances" meaning "everyone just mag dumps into her the moment the door opens". They actually play before you open the door- but as a result they've got a muffle filter on them.

A more mobile build with inspire and better weapon skills is an advantage compared to a turret build on those heists. I've used turrets on BoS, BtM, Meltdown, Goats, and probably HoxBreak. I'd also be willing to use them on the other named maps, since you'd just want to drop them by cop spawns. On BoS, just stick the turrets such that they're close-ish to 2 pallets if possible. Ideally, put them near cop spawns so they can light up the cops as they come over walls or whatever. That's if you don't want to move them. If you don't mind micro, just drop them two at a time near the pallet you're working. They definitely help draw aggro. They're good on BtM. They help you get inside the facility, since they can fight cops while you're sorting out a turret/burning through gates. Then they can, basically by themselves, handle the control room and keep cops from stopping the vaults from opening. Even at the end, they can create a safe area. I could keep going, but I'm getting bored. Point is, turrets are really, really good, if you commit to building around them, and place them with a goal in mind. You're right that other builds can do the same job, but I'm pretty sure there isn't any loud heist where you could get good work done with 4/8, if not more, turrets.

Metrohunter posted:I did now and it's on. How do I get my gooncoins back. There's an inventory file you can modify manually, or there's the gagecoin file to simply have the number of coins awarded on completing a pack be whatever number you had before... Or 6000. You can force a redownload after you modify to go back to the old values if you want.

Did they just add tutorial levels for a 3-year-old game? One would think firing up a Normal Four Stores/Jewellery Store would be good enough for anyone to learn the controls, especially if they've played PD: TH.

The tutorials cover more than just the controls, and given how widespread misinformation, bad practices, and general pubbie badness are, any additional useful information inside the game itself is a good thing.

I'm really digging the 1887 so far but I need to get myself a shark teeth nozzle and the accuracy -4 boost to see if I can really make it shine. Dragon's breath is fantastic now as well.
