I hope Herman the German and the Russian characters make it back in although that's a longshot. Can't wait to see the holiday events for KF 2.

I don't understand everyone freaking out about how long they think it will take to level up, I was actually disappointed when I hit lv6 everything in KF because it removed a big 'carrot' for me.

closeted republican posted:I still expect problems on day one because of how many people will be trying to access the game at once. Nah, I don't expect it to have many issues. The GTA V PC launch kinda only sucked for about a half hour then poo poo ran smooth. The KF 2 stress test went great, etc etc. I imagine if there are problems it will most likely just be a few hours instead of days of crap.

I'd be down for added character packs a la Payday 2, even though they've been doing that since before Payday 1. What I'm not for is paid weapons ( even though it was great they eventually adopted the Community Pack ) that invites massive power creep. I've been a big supporter of Tripwire through the years simply because they've never followed the lovely DLC practices that other devs do.

Epsilon Plus posted:Most of the videos I've seen have featured players just firing relentlessly at mobs, but when I played KF I always tried to go for headshots whenever possible unless in Full Goddamn Panic Mode. Did they increase ammo counts or otherwise change the ammo system to be less of a burden on the players, or is this just because Sharpshooter/Gunslinger isn't an available perk yet? Almost every pub group I've been has been a full group of Commandos who center of mass autofire. I've played with Akumos before and we both seem to top kill lists when we played together.

Lemon Curdistan posted:Man, if I'd known Medics got a shotgun I'd have just gone Medic. Getting perks up to cap feels like it's going to be a lot more of a grind, but maybe I'm just getting fooled by the "levels" being broken down into five sublevels between perk slots. If anything, the grind feels way less. In a few hours of playing, I'm already a level 4 Commando with a Level 1 Support solely from offperk shotgunning. I just dislike how they did the Commando perks, especially putting Tactical Reload and Single Shot damage boost on the same tier. That makes absolutely zero sense to me since the best way to play Commando is semi auto and their fast reload was a major plus for an otherwise frowned upon class in KF1. EDIT : Also, what happened to recoil reduction for ARs?

Lemon Curdistan posted:Essentially, every "level" you get corresponds to a fifth of a perk level in KF1, which makes it feel like you're progressing faster and gives you some of the bonuses gradually instead of all at once. I've no problem with that considering the absolute shittiness levelling a Commando was in KF 1.

Questioner86 and Turnways, are you guys going to be taking feedback for the game here or does it have to be posted via Steam or TWI forums? Just curious because I feel a lot of good tuning suggestions would originate here since most goons are basement dwellers who do nothing but play video games or Magic the Gathering all day.

When you use Call Out for Commando, it only seems that people close to you can see the Stalkers as far as you can. Other people on the other side of the map have reported they don't get the benefit. So far, we don't know what the approximate range of being close to the Commando is to see the Stalkers but I'm assuming around the same range you can see them as the Commando. Also, Nightvision is useless and should get removed or updated into something that makes it appealing. and I still think the Level 15 perks need to get separated because having to pick between Single Shot damage and faster reloads is a major gimp to the Commando perk. It should be picking between Single Shot Damage of Automatic Damage imo.

closeted republican posted:That's my experience as well. Once I hit level 2 with Support, it got much more powerful. I don't mind the levelling. Max perk in KF 1, you could only see Stalkers and health up to 16m. I'm almost Level 8 and I can already see up to 25m. I have a feeling classes are going to be WAAAY more powerful as they level and its meant to shift players onto the harder difficulties so the game is ultimately more rewarding.

LuciferMorningstar posted:I'm not really seeing any huge issues here, so feel free to point out the specifics that you think I'm missing. As the page points out, Commando benefits from large magazines and a fast reload, so those seem like the obvious and no-brainer perk choices. Nor does it answer the question of why Commando gets health buffs that, as far as I'm concerned, constitute a durability buff. You seemed to be describing the Sharpshooter from KF 1 is all. A lot of KF vets will tell you that the Commando has no place in "high level" play because it was pretty much useless compared to anything else you could take into Suicidal or Hell on Earth. They were also quite squishy as a result of not being able to take anything higher than a Husk solo on anything over Hard. That should explain their buffed health and damage bonuses because it looks like TWI is trying to make them a viable "end game" class. Unfortunately though one thing that really made the Commando great was lowered recoil as you leveled and that seems to have been removed. A lot of the Commando perk combinations don't seem to make sense with what they're paired with for you to pick from and the Nightvision that Beserker and Commando have access to is pretty much useless. If they're going to do extremely dark maps like they used to, something like Nightvision should be an all inclusive thing instead of just limited to two classes that have no real use for them.

LuciferMorningstar posted:Okay, this makes sense, so thanks for elaborating. I guess Commando is then intended to be able to shift between constantly being on the front lines and sniping from a distance, without dominating either role as well as another perk could? And that perhaps the perks could use some adjusting? Commando ( and Firebug ) is the Trash Clearer in Chief. Commando keeps everyone else clear so they can deal with Scrakes and Fleshpounds. Also, just an update, the Goon Floor 2 server is now switched to Hard. Have at 'em!

Yeah, the starting rifle for Commando is pretty rear end, all things considered. Weak, low ammo even with the Mag upgrade, and really terrible iron sights. I get more headshots hipfiring it.

That would really suck if they took out the LAW and pipe bombs, but it would make sense to stop boss insta-gibs. Unless they make all three bosses multistage ones. We still don't know if Hans CAN be insta-gibbed though because the right weapons aren't in game.

Dr. VooDoo posted:I kinda feel like FleshPounds need to be tweaked upward. In KF1 seeing that red light appear on his chest was an oh poo poo moment but he does it so often in KF2 it doesn't mean much and even when he rages his damage is still pretty meh. Scrakes are much more of a threat so far compared to FleshPounds I agree, but if they do this they should revert the Fleshpound rage mechanic back to what it was. I realize a lot of people are loving masochists and want the game to be hard as balls for everyone as well as themselves, but making an insta-rage KF 1 style FP just wouldn't be much fun.

Guys, Akumos was thinking about taking Goon Floor 2 down until more content is added to the game. Are you guys down with this or do you want us to keep it up? As it is now, we made it public because hardly any goons came to play on it so it'd be a waste of money to keep it running for pubbies. We'd appreciate any feedback, i.e. if you want it to stay up, if you want it to go back on Hard, etc.
