Abandoned Toaster posted:Better than camping on top of the roller coaster, though. it's an open area with spawns on all side and they spawn basically immediately into range of attacking you with little walk up. Husks literally start firing at you as they spawn. All the spawn points are offset tangentially so you can't use penetration to clear swarms of them, like you could in a long hallway or something. Under/near the rollercoaster is a good spot imo. I'm not a pro player or anything and just play with pubbies so ymmv. darkhand fucked around with this message at 06:38 on Jan 9, 2018 |

Spent like an hour last night grinding out dosh boxes while reading Wikipedia in the overlay browser. There's some decent looking stuff in there I hadn't seen before. A Hello Kitty style Friday the 13th hockey mask? Yeah I'll take that  This feels like a dumb question, but how do you unequip cosmetics? I have enough crap now I'd like to start over with 'stock' character models but they're all stuck wearing various bits and baubles I now can't seem to get rid of. e: Of course I find it like an hour after I post this, the big red circle-with-line-through-it None option

So Alteisen and I were doing some HoE after a long while. First match went great, we had an amazing team and no one died a single time. Second match all the good guys leave and it's just me and her for 6 waves, but we do it without a ton of trouble. A SWAT joins but he seems to know what he's doing. Then a Demo joins during the break before wave 9. There are 20 seconds left and he's not moving. On the off-chance his game is taking a long time to load, I decide it'll help the team if he has more than a grenade pistol. I throw my Medic AR to the ground, buy a M79 and stock it, throw it on the ground where we're holding and grab my AR back, and tell the Demo to head for us. The Demo proceeds to spend the first minute of the match running around away from us looking for ammo, then ignores the M79 right behind him for another half a minute. By the time he picks it up like three Fleshpounds have spawned, he gets hosed, and then the rest of us get hosed. I keep hoping I'm helping someone competent, but don't ever try to help pubbies beyond throwing them money, Jesus Christ. Gromit posted:That rollercoaster is amazing as a camping spot, though. It's either really boring because everything's channeled to die or the people in front suck and it becomes a deathtrap where the whole team falls apart and wipes. I hate it.

What's a good weapon progression for SWAT? I feel like if I have two SMGs at the same time I spend everything on ammo when the class really needs armour to shine. Double pistols + extra damage doesn't seem to be worth giving up tac reload.

MP7 + MP5 -> Add kriss / p90, if you're totally rich dump the mp7, but it is a very economical trash sweeper. You really want a support on the team if you're playing swat

You really want a support on the team if you're playing swat I generally skip the P90 if I can get the Kriss sooner. P90 seems to just vomit ammo but not do much damage while the Vector also vomits ammo but also death. The level 25 perk of infinite ammo and real time firing with the Vector is amazing on every zed.

Honestly I feel like the base weapon for Swats is so good that you can stick with it + pistols for a while and then tech up to the best in one go. Ammo is a concern, but that's why someone is

I agree, I stick with the MP7 for SWAT until I get get the Vector. The perk that spawns you in with double 9mms and ups their damage by 110% is amazing. Seriously, if you spawn as SWAT, spawn with this perk. Your Berettas will one-shot Gorefasts in the head, they're crazy powerful, and the ammo is very cheap. I stick with those for the first wave or two, then just sell the extra pistol for free cash and switch to the reload speed perk when I sell the pistol (and because I am selling the pistol I actually remember to change my perk, unlike for every other time when I say I will and never do). Then I have a wave of MP7 where I'm slightly undergunned, and then it's Vector time where I am way overgunned for several rounds in a row. It's even worth doing it this way if you can only barely afford the Vector; for a gun that's meant to be fired at 1000+ rounds per minute, it does more than enough damage per shot to be useful in semi auto.

I hate it. I've not played HoE, so maybe it's terrible for that, but I usually enjoy my time there. A firebug can stumble the big guys if need be who often fall off the side and have to run all the way back around again which gives everyone more time to kill them. And it you get overwhelmed you just jump off the back and it turns into a running game. I've yet to find a better spot, but I play pub games so rarely I don't really learn what others have found.

Same here. I do play the higher difficulties when the dailies force me to but as a berserker and solo.

Grabbing the mp5 before Kriss makes ammo boxes and support bonuses go twice as far. No running out of ammo on 7/10 wave which is very possible above hard.

And it you get overwhelmed you just jump off the back and it turns into a running game. HoE is just Suicidal but you get punished more for getting hit. I would normally play HoE but it's only if we have six people, because otherwise leechers come in at the last second with their crappy gear and zero dosh just to raise the zed count and power before dying without contributing anything.

The zeds do pretty much every move they're going to on Suicidal, HOE is mostly just more health and more difficult spawns. That's why I like Suicidal- it doesn't feel like the AI is gimped, but the AI doesn't have ungodly huge pools of health to throw at me. Oh, except husk suicides, gently caress that.

It's even better if it's a fierce fire fight and you suddenly catch a glimpse of the husk sprinting to your area. You lay fire at it and connect but can't kill it before it throws a touchdown at your feet. Bonus points if it takes out more then one. On high player count servers I've seen them take out a dozen people trying to hold the line at a door in one go.

I wasn't going to do this, but I can't help myself... Unless the spreadsheet I'm looking at is horrifically out of date, the health values for the vast majority of enemies literally does not change from Hard through Suicidal. Further, the health increases from Normal to Hard are minimal. The common enemies gain no more than 25 total health. 1911s will waste most enemies in a few bodyshots, and the .500 will literally one-shot body shot all trash. If you can shoot heads, there are a number of weapons that will one-shot pretty much everything except Scrakes and Pounds.

I find with SWAT, I like to just rock the MP7 until I can get the UMP. The UMP is probably my favorite SWAT gun now. From there on I'll get the Vector and whatever else but only after the UMP. Also, always click heads, unless it's a Husk, then you click the backpack.

I was playing a map on Hard with my lv25 zerk, must have been a daily map, and for whatever reason I was giving up and tried to kill myself. I stood in a hallway completely surrounded by clots and crawlers and it took like 45 seconds for them to get me down to 0 health.

Headshots aren't optional beyond Hard. Revolver Bunker posted:The level 25 perk of infinite ammo and real time firing with the Vector is amazing on every zed. I kind of want almost every class to have a lv25 option of 'infinite ammo and faster fire rate during Zedtime' for one of their perks. Unbalanced? OP? Maybe, it's just so much fun with Firebug. My Commando perk is +3% damage and fire faster, but that just empties my clip immediately and I spend the rest of the zedtime reloading. Medics could fire infinite heal darts that would have super tracking enabled, prioritizing players with lower health.

What irks me about the Stoner is just how weak it is. I mean, I can kill fine with it but I just don't quite feel like a badass because the rate of zed death return per bullet on a super high recoil weapon isn't that great.

Elysiume posted:I still don't understand the +3% damage. Unless it's nudging you over headshot breakpoints, it's just a weirdly negligible amount of damage. My shot in the dark is that somebody thought about the numbers like 3%*3x fire rate = 9% bonus damage, but 3x RoF is functionally 300% damage anyway, so...

The one redeeming thing is that you can carry both the Stoner and SCAR at the same time. The SCAR is good for being awesome at the game and clicking heads one at a time and the stoner is good for firing into a huge pile of crawlers screaming like a retard after you run out of SCAR ammo.

I haven't bought the SCAR in awhile. I usually run AK/boomstick or AK/Stoner now when I play Commando. Gromit posted:With recoil reduction it's just fun for me to fire.

Survival isn't bad either but I prefer to play that with friends because I actually have to pay attention then.
