Someone on the O is pretty sure that people only use dashes and teleports inside of hubs to annoy him. Honestly though, watching the steam rating of MH for the past 30 days tank has been pretty funny lately.

I like how many of them complain about the heroes being simplified when what they really mean is that the dumpster fire of Omegas was finally put out.

yes. it is very good. it stagnated for a while but the game is changing in broad ways for the better.

if it fails to regain any sort of audience it will probably be goodbye which would suck cause i like this game but oh well.

Conservation in the last tier is supposed to turn Photonic Blast into your ranged basic by removing the cost, although of course it's not working at the moment.

Can't allow the players to move too quickly in case a rogue wants to grope them.

Story is very good xp even after they made it so you can't just skip to boss kills

story seems to be the best way to level 1-60 now, at least on a fresh prestige. if you have any synergy bonus xp, you probably won't even get to latveria before you hit 60.

the game is "broken" in the sense that only one part of the big patch is in yet. right now, if you want to go in and grind a cosmic prestige or endgame stuff, there's nothing to do yet.

i reccomend leveling and prestiging characters to get their costumes so you can roll a random costume until that is no longer possible in the near future. at least until the omega items and difficulty adjustment parts of the patch come out.

You literally cannot progress the story because several missions/zones are bugged and you either won't get progress (taskmaster institute) or you'll disconnect everytime you try and enter (a ton of things in part/act 4).

Those are probably patched in the next patch that's coming in a few hours

and also you can teleport to the zones just beyond them (cargo ship for taskmaster, subway i think for mutant growth hormone factory place) and go back to trigger the quests. if you don't have the waypoints someone can group with you and teleport you to them.

patch in the morning will fix them.

For the record, I progressed through the entire story up to chapter 6 where I hit level 60. The Taskmaster bug just requires you to port to Hood's ship (rip all new players) and then go backward until it credits you with leaving the Institute. I didn't have any disconnects at all.

I'm gonna point out something that is maybe obvious to everyone else but I didn't realize and it left me wondering why my heroes seemed to fluctuate in power randomly from build to build and day to day:

In the training room, dummy hp scales with your current difficulty. Cosmic dummies have pretty wild amounts of hp. Make sure your comparisons between different heroes take that into account if you're, say, switching between an established character and one who hasn't passed that cosmic trial and is set to heroic.

why the gently caress did I think gaz had gotten their poo poo together and fixed a damned thing. They just created a gently caress load more things for them to break and they did and holy poo poo what.

ah well I guess I didn't spend all that much time on em I mean 2174 hours is only 90 days and 14 hours and that's 3 months and like a little over half a day so that's also about the same amount of time I've been sober since I started playing this game so good life choices all around.

I mean Ryolnir left so you would think that would make them more competent on the whole...except they are now less competent.

They almost certainly lifted that from Diablo 3. I've been playing Monk and the most obnoxious thing in the game is that Dashing Strike only has two charges.

Well despite the changes I'm having fun playing Hulk with the controller. Movement isn't too bad, though I can see how it would be annoying if you were grinding the same zone again and again.
