E: actually the worst thing about the community is their bad taste in masks, the ones they picked are good but don't beat literal anime and the arguable best mask in the game

This is the most activity this thread has seen in weeks.

I hacked my first five Infamies, what're you gonna do about that????

There was some goony goon who kicked anyone above infamy 1 for awhile because they were cheating when infamy dropped. Unfortunately this was back when the game was a terrible grind and everyone reset infamy, but then wanted to play deathwish which was pretty much max level only.

They ended up stoving a lot and trying to name and shame ~goon cheaters~ in group chat and mumble.

I think part of Vox's nerf boner for the RPG is that he believes it constrains the design for new enemy special types because no matter how threatening or interesting they are. He's not wrong in that, having some special that shoots tear gas grenades at your holdout spot (or whatever fixes the problematic player behavior that trivializes his heist on the tomb of horrors), is easily fixed by "shoot a bloody rocket at it".

Vox have you considered that it's okay for the players to have the weapon that trivializes specials, and it doesn't really hamper the design of new ones? In other games like card games (specifically hearthstone threads which are terrible don't read them) people theorycraft cards and a typical criticism is "dies to removal" (a card that kills another card) and that criticism isn't treated as valid because every card in your deck dies to removal, but the opponent has limited resources and doesn't always have the card in hand.

In PD2, the RPG is a lot less limited than in a card game, but there still are limitations (reload in particular). These can all be mitigated by taking more RPGs into the heist, but that also carries its own opportunity cost. Also, having another special I want to rocket instantly means there are less rockets to shoot at other specials and more time those specials get to live before I shoot them. In practice, this usually isn't a concern with increasing player skill, but most teams aren't comprised of 4x 1000+ hour players who are coordinating in voice chat.

I think the opportunity cost of the RPG is much higher nowadays also, there are a few primaries that don't mesh well with RPG (flamethrower grinder) and there are some really good secondaries. I think you can design new enemies or heist features without having to worry about the dies-to-rocket problem, because the rocket solution is a player choice and as many have chimed in, taking that choice away makes people angry.

I do think the RPG could be touched lightly, maybe decrease the ammo count to 3/4 fully loaded, but otherwise as people have said before: its a fun weapon and it is satisfying to blow a dozer/shieldwall the gently caress up and that shouldn't be messed with too much.

Also i wanted to add, I haven't used an RPG in months because grinder + fire weapons is great and health regen in this game is way more busted (as lucifer morningstar said before i think). I can't even remember this game before health regen, i think cupcakes were really good then?!?!

Somewhere in the explosives skill tree (no change in points invested) should be 50% faster reload with things that go boom incl HE shotgun (stacks with shotgun reload) and HE arrows/crossbow bolts. Also explosive resistance for danger close operations.

Favorite patch fuckup: When specials had this aggression cascade to the point where they would meld into a cop pile with shields and try to run you over in the days before grenades or any shield-killing weapons.

Sykic posted:

By "good ol days" he probably means before the grenade launchers, probably around the time of the LMG or Sniper DLCs. We didn't even have Cloakers back then!

These things are what I meant. Sykic dug up a screenshot where he's using the IZHMA, P90, and C4 because techforcer builds were the One True Build then and C4 would one shot dozers within a certain radius.

Actually while we're reminiscing, I think our old deathwish team comp was like:
1 techforcer with mag plus ace and IZHMA for ammo pickup sustain
1 techforcer with bulletproof ace for team sustain (no regen health back then, armor only)
1 masterforcer with double doc, inspire ace, shieldbash
1 masterforcer/techforcer flex spot, usually techforcer

2 double stuff'd ammo, 1 C4 or ammo, 1 double stuf'd doc

Shields were usually dealt with by having some sort of flanking position or shieldbash!!! (holy poo poo has that skill decreased in value). Dozers were dealt with by carefully pinging them from a distance if possible or using a grenade stun + facemelt.
Secondary of choice was P90 or Loco
Primary was the holy trinity: Car-4, KSP, IZHMA

Its crazy to me that we only ran one inspire, pre nerf too when the range was 10m, but the thing with deathwish then was that without health regen you really had to take cover and move slow. Downs were usually more incidental or due to a dozer push where inspire didn't help you, instead of now when downs are usually due to someone overextending or being an idiot. Also there's no reason to invest in technician without the tier bonus so there's no reason to climb the tree further for the good stuff, thus more people just roll masterforcer.

You can 2-man guessing game so find another buddy who needs it and grind it out. There is a correct first cut and correct second cut, not two correct boxes, so its 1/12 you get the right combo. ~20 runs should get it accounting for stealth flubs.

Good tip: have one person stealthing and the other brings a saw to get through the doors faster. if you get spotted you can ecm to remain in stealth and just try two wires, saw the doors and run back to the van within 2 min

weapon effectiveness in a pve game aside, is that the only dlc I should get after goty?

So many of us have owned all the dlc for so long that it's hard to remember where the lines are drawn off the top of your head. At least it is for me, especially whats actually in goty or not, and ive also written this up before.

Nothing is required but if a pack looks fun you should probably pick it up. Explosives and fire are usually more fun than the mundane bullet spewing instruments. Historical for your ww2 boner for mosins. Characters if you think they'd be cool like screaming katana wielding japanese man in a white suit.

It would probably be faster if you asked us if xyz dlc/gun/character is good. Probably all the map dlc's if you don't have a regular host with em. Goat simulator is good for instance.

Love the changes to the tree, Enforcer was too good imo and some of those changes are incredible (picking up throwables, bullets staggering shields, shotgun range). We'll see where shotguns are without skills, but spending 24 points to get an incredible ammo efficient weapon is not unreasonable. Yea i know, assault rifles are already that without skills but also consider that a rifle is not a goddamned shotgun :hellyeah:

I'm looking forward to how the rest of the trees are now, build variety might actually be a thing!
