I stopped doing Ukrainian job because I'm literally too stupid not to walk through the metal detectors.

Shooting Blanks posted:If you keep infamying, the best progression I've found is stealth DW Ukrainian job, stealth DW diamond store, stealth DW or OK election day, then something big for xp (aftershock is probably the most efficient). If anyone has a better suggestion I'm all ears, but that seems to be fast, takes advantage of stealth bonuses, and has few penalties for being under levelled. Plus, being stealth, you can actually do them at any level up to aftershock vs. getting carried. But yeah it depends on if anyone is around. When I did what you quoted I was working from home and did all of that solo until I started playing with Tempest and Father Chairface. I hate going solo for anything where you have to control/kill a zillion civilians because I inevitably miss one and gently caress it up. That is why I did Four Stores (on overkill) just to get a few easy levels (if I did it four times uninterrupted I could probably do it in sub-15 minutes and be at level ~40), then DW Ukrainian because it takes longer but is worth more XP (and is easier with some skills), thennn once I have even more skills I can do DW Murky Station in ~20 minutes if I am lucky, so I do that and Election day on Overkill until I feel the need to go loud, so I do a loud heist with the 20% XP boost. Speaking of it, other than a ship blocking your view of the trucks at the start of day 1, what does Election Day DW throw at you to make it worse?

Psion posted:okay so when you look at your Heathers with this build equipped, stability is at 100 in purple right? Maybe remove one of the +stab skills and see if it stays there. If so, remove two. You could probably get some points freed up that way. I'd also un-ace stable shot. Since when are you ever standing still with a vest+akimbos build?

Got kicked from a pub game for the first time  Pub host got mad that I didnt use my keycard to open the archive doors in Hoxbreak. He spelled my name horribly wrong in all caps saying "USE KEYKARD" then a split second later while I was moving to the door he types BYE and kicks me  He had a keycard of his own, which is the best part to me.

I've been kicked for not putting down an ammo bag fast enough, picking up too many gage packages in quick succession, giving advice to someone else in the team who asked for it and even stranger things.

Pubstoving is great to be able to see just how bad the average pubbie is, and how many of them are doing poo poo like running Rogue with ICTV.

I enjoy pubbing especially when it allows me to be a superhero and carry my whole team when they get custodied and I know they're forced to watch me make it out to be child's play.

I had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't asleep. I have a sneaking suspicion that they were friends leaving one slot open on their own pubbie safari because they started trolling me by switching my trip mines to sensor mode.

Booted up my PS4 today, and holy poo poo, a actual 16gb update for the console version! Still downloading it for a laugh, but according to most of the complaints it's mostly just a download for paid DLC, with a handful of free stuff and no actual patch notes or fixes. It's alright though, after 18 months of no support whatsoever, you can pay another $39.99 to unlock all that new DLC they added. Best part of all? People's inventory and unlocks are being deleted, and they broke crime.net. Battling The Division for shittiest patch ever, but I think they take the title for taking a year and a half and loving it up on day one.

Watched some big score gameplay and console is getting the new weapon preview mode when customizing guns. A nice surprise. I believe infamy 2.0 as well will be in the update. Xbox patch is still in limbo though. Since we can now Mark lobbies stealth or loud I wonder if that means crime net is fixed. (On Xbox crime net matchmaking was completely removed.) I am pretty psyched for the update. The main new gun I want to shoot is the vector.

Colosmicon posted:I thought the only people who still tied game speed to framerate were Flash developers. Nope, a lot of games apparently still do this bullshit. Like the most recent Need For Speed Undercover, locked at 30 fps and if you unlock it to more, it breaks the physics engine. What boggles my mind is that they have to build the games from the ground up to be like this, and no one ever stops and goes "Hold up. Won't this gently caress everything horribly?" Game development!

I could use a look-over of a gimmick(-ish) build I've put together for being flamethrower-focused. Build is here. Basics: - ICTV/Infiltrator (since dodge with a flamethrower ain't happening) with the expectation of mostly close-quarters and that I can poke cops for health while they're screaming on fire. - Bulletstorm ammo bags for 15 wonderful seconds of unlimited fire. - Lock N' Load to sprint and flamethrower. - A couple pistol skills with the Deagle for anti-sniper/anti-dozer/finishing off tasers and cloakers. - Swan Song for more unlimited fire. - Bloodthirst to speed up the slow flamethrower reload. But the build isn't quite working out like I'd hoped it would. (Aside from there being lots of fire. That part's really successful.) Anybody see any tweaks I'm missing to try and make it a bit better?

Actually, use Anarchist plus Frenzy. Do that. Something like this, probably. I wouldn't bother with pistol skills. Just grab a good SMG and use that as a secondary.

So what's the new TechForcer build since the new skill trees came out? Not sure how I feel about fire trap. But thoughts on this build? I mainly use SMGs and rifles, so I can skip shotgun skills. edit: Fixed link, but it looks like pd2weapons seems to be better Blight Runner fucked around with this message at 07:57 on Sep 10, 2016 |

Anybody see any tweaks I'm missing to try and make it a bit better? What problems are you facing, exactly? I'm guessing survivability is an issue. In which case, I would advise dropping aced Fully Loaded because you already have two full ammo bags, and acing Bullseye to get back more armour with headshots. Also get basic Die Hard to protect yourself when interacting with objectives or reviving team-mates. Take away aced Parkour - I've never found it useful because I prefer to take cover and reload, and anyway you're in an ICTV so you're slow and its usefulness is therefore limited - and ace Underdog instead. Infiltrator certainly can work on this build, but you'll die terribly on open heists like Goat Simulator Day 1. I agree that you should consider using an SMG secondary though, like the Krinkov which can be modded for good accuracy and stability and also deals excellent damage. Also, dodge crit flamethrower is definitely a thing with aced Sneaky Bastard and Low Blow, and the Crook perk deck. The downside is you'll end up with a pretty poo poo secondary since the flamethrower's maximum concealment is 8.

It's not the absolute best secondary ever, but it's more than capable as long as you're not trying to kill snipers from a mile away.

I wish there was a misc pool of skills to get, like "switch guns while sprinting", "extra X damage" (x being fire, explosive, melee, whatever), "certain bullets can pass through certain enemies", "time slows down when a Cloaker is attacking you".

Tempest_56 posted:(since dodge with a flamethrower ain't happening) First, this is incorrect. Second, if you construct your entire build around it, you can run a dodge/crit flamethrower setup.
