Hopefully there's some optimization left on the table for later. Edit: Now if people would stop killing mutants so fast so I could get this last zealot penance

I really like the new desert mission. Must suck if you're not set up for range, though.

Evil Kit posted:Oh huh, Ogryn's start with so many more bars base it's honestly hard to tell. Maybe it caps? I'll need to test it out with curious in the Meat Grinder I guess, I had no idea other classes only started with 3 stamina bars.

Insert name here posted:It's per weapon, so the knife and tomahawk both have 3 bars baseline, while for example the shovel and power sword have 5 baseline IIRC. I know certain weapons give bonuses to stamina (it's listed on the info card!) but even base Ogryn def have more stamina bars. I've really noticed a difference trying to block and shove as a puny human.

Difficulty 3 Endless horde feels like the sweet spot for difficulty right now with rando's, difficult, failure cascades can still happen, but it still allows for mistakes like getting hit in the butt from the team not covering and you can still clench it and be a big hero solo carry despite bads or low levels on a team and you don't run into the scaling issues on 4+ where you lose because your team can't make the big numbers the game is asking to punch through the constant wall of meat and bullets around every corner.

Even though the plasma cannon feels incredible to use, I wasn't sold until I killed a half dozen scabs, two shotgunners, and a sniper with a single shot. This thing loving rules.

I was able to play this for a few hours without getting any crashes or disconnects in a mission, and while the FPS still stutters and flies around much more than I'd like, it's acceptable now that I have a DLSS-compatible card. Furthermore it incredibly wasn't buggy at all, which was very surprising. At least on my machine, it seems completely playable and technically ready for release once all the content is in. All of my other issues from the previous beta still stand (other than the responsiveness of controls which definitely do feel better), and I could still list endless issues with gameplay as far as special enemy design, itemization, weapon balance, etc. But at this point it's clear that people who liked the consistency and overall fairness of VT1 just flat-out are not the target audience anymore, and a lot of that doesn't matter if you just stay on more forgiving difficulties and ignore fatshark's attempts to make a tryhard game without the design to back it up. Thinking I'll just settle into an average difficulty, chill out and enjoy the basics of hitting things for as long as that lasts.

I like it, but I keep coming back to the Mk12 lasgun for best "big damage in one shot" gun because it has way, way more convenience in use and consistent uptime compared to the bolter or plasma gun's big drawbacks in reload/ammo/ready time/sway. It isn't as flashy or has that big oompf that will make your teammates go "oooh" but it's just really good at tapping heads forever and ever.

Man, queuing for malice and getting 2 level 4's and a level 3 does not make for a fun run. One of them had obviously played before, but the other two ran ahead and died to the first patrol in the level. Should probably make the level requirements for the higher difficulties a bit higher, maybe keep them unlocked if you have a character past that level already.

Had an interesting moment on the oubliette assassination where the boss shield popping sent me over a railing and I briefly existed in a superposition of downed off the edge, still able to move and rapidly flickering between them. Then the game gave up and put me back on land.

Almost everything is unlocked by 15 now on all classes and stuff unlocks a lot more rapidly in early levels. Existing characters it seemed kinda funky on but I'm not sure why.

The Ogryn doesn't really get single target killer ranged weapons with the exception of the grenade gauntlet, yes? I thought the heavy stubbers might be a good long range solution, and while I love firing them and they mulch hordes, gunners and snipers tend to simply get knocked over, allowing them to hide behind cover. I suppose it lines up well with the Ogryn's role as a crowd control and suppression machine though.

Orv posted:My hope is to eventually put one together with a bunch of anti-flak stuff. I love the things and they’re not bad at flak by any means but it can take a split second longer than I’d like in a messy firefight if I’m not hitting heads 100%. Burn stacks are your friend for anti flak stuff with gun. My Spicy Queen is very good with these types of things as the burn chews through high hp targets.

Level 3 is doable at low levels with a good team. Level 4 should be a minimum level 20 for matchmaking or open for premade groups. Level 5 should be level 25+ on second character, level 30 for first character

Just had a go with an Accatran MKVIIa Recon Lasgun, thing is super accurate sure but it just doesnt have the killing power needed to clear out shooters. Even headshots seem to take at least three per guy. Shame, since mine has 2 burn stacks on crit and 4% ranged crit. Burn seems useful on certain enemies but the bolter kills em just as quick. Gimme a Kantrael MG XII Infrantry Lasgun any day of the week.

Get a feel for it in the meat grinder — it’s a literal railgun and makes the best headshot sound. It’s basically just like the plasma gun that people have mentioned (going by their descriptions). Oh and it staggers in a massive area. And does very solid single target damage (a little less than half of a brain burst on a headshot). Volleyball staff for life

Voidstrike is very much the Psyker Plasma Gun and it owns. It's even kind of a little bit better because anyone nearby your line of fire gets tossed around instead of just not giving a poo poo that dudes next to them got turned into meat.

Even headshots seem to take at least three per guy. VIIIA is just flatout inferior to the vid I think. I have both around the same near 400 item level, the viia maxes out around 650 dps for shooting through the maulers flak, the vid gets 890. The extra firerate is especially choice for clearing out large groups fast.
