I adore the level design but I think all the head enemies are trash and the reason the pistol has its alt-fire. And by association they actually hinder the level design because they keep showing up in wide open areas that I want to have fun little firefights in, but a 3 pixel wide head is shooting tiny rockets at me from miles away.

Before I got to bed and forget, just wanna say that those mechapeds are a real dope enemy design, especially the way they split up if you don't destroy the head.

I guess I just have to accept they're "Bowling bombs" but I do really hate you can't just lob a bomb over a short chest-high wall You kinda can but you have to really full charge it and then look way up and kinda like jump throw it, pretty unreliable Barudak posted:I want a Shelly Goes Caribbean DLC Oh my yes Put her on the cruise ship from 5th Element

The shotguns alt fire is traditional arc lobbed grenades. If Duke went to DC does that mean Shelly needs to go to Los Angeles for her third expansion?

Insert name here posted:I haven't had a chance to play yet but on a scale of 1 to Build Engine how dangerous are the doors I just lost 30 hp because of one! But first time it happens to me. The revolver alt-fire is original (for a retro fps) and it's especially good against the small head-enemies. But still, it's kind of... OP? You can spam it easily, and it's equally good against human cultists too. I wish it had a 4 second cooldown, for example, to make me abuse it less. Speaking of the head enemies... drat they are annoying. Even with the revolver's help, they are just too much in them in the maps. I wish they would have used a more fun to fight against regular non-human enemy. Speaking of wishes, I wish the automap would should the colored doors (I mean, the ones that need a color keycard).

There was something it didn't feel right with the engine, the fps indicator showed 60 fps constant but sometimes it feels a bit sluggish? I think it's their vsync implementation. I ended disabling it and putting a fps cap of 120, and now the game feels better. The game is easy in the second difficulty, I should have selected Ultra Viscera. Oh well, I will reserve that for the eventual second playthrough. For example, I think I found 10 usable medkits until now (I just reached the third episode), and only had to use one of them. I still have 9 with me.

ZogrimAteMyHamster posted:My only complaint at the moment goes to those stupid little bastard head-spider things. Tiny ground-based enemies like that have never worked well in any 2.5D FPS (Strife, Blood, Alien Trilogy... etc.), and they even suck in 3D FPS games (Doom 3, DUSK). Here, they remind me of this fuckin' guy, of all things.

I have to say the density of enemies on the highest difficulty level is quite satisfying and at least partially makes up for their lack of intelligence.

I think it's their vsync implementation. I ended disabling it and putting a fps cap of 120, and now the game feels better. My issue is that if I turn vsync off I get pretty noticeable screen tearing. I have a freesync monitor but it doesn't seem to be doing much to help here.

Try forcing vsync through nvidia/ati control pannel. It's amazing the amount of games that don't implement vsync right and forcing it from the drivers solve it.

Blood FS uses some horrifying hybrid of BUILD, KEX and reverse-engineered DOS binaries. Ion Fury uses eDuke32 with some minor tweaks to disable some Duke-centric bits.

I never use the puck because in any instance where I need an explosion I have bombs and grenades already, why have a third weapon that does the same thing.

This game is extremely good and i'm really glad there's no respawning enemies or anything silly on the highest difficulty. Just increased enemy density.

While watching that video "I would have never figured that out" was the dominate thought during that bit.koren posted:You can also straferun and jump across the gap from the lower level, but it's very difficult and the failure condition is instant death. That jump looked way questionable to do that with. I'm sure I wouldn't be able to pull it off, but good to know its possible.

You end up sort of clipping on the edge of it, which tipped me off to the fact it's probably not intentional: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMvYjUULl0U Still probably less awkward than build engine platforming on invisible thin wires and railings.

The way to the MDK\Blade Runner secret is so obscure. I knew it was there the whole time and that I'd have to get onto those AC units in the bazaar but I had no idea how to get up there. I'm currently trying to figure out the piano. I found some tab somewhere in the level but now I need to hunt down the notes!

Goddamn that's too secret! Civvie had a hard time with the piano. Reminds me of Myst, my whole family is tone deaf and got stuck in the rocket ship until I did it for them. It leads to a secret level apparently.
