There's a sixth type which is the type that is on your team and eat all the bullets you shoot down a hallway just by existing and being large.

When those ones run through your body and take up the whole screen as you line up a sniper they really ramp up the difficulty.

This game is amazingly fun and save for a few fails when trying to match-make I found almost none of the problems other people did.
Still, with that said, everything seems so unpolished and screams "needs another one or possibly two months in the oven". I have no idea how they are going to make it to release in 10 days.

Yeah same. The menus and stuff are absolutely terrible. It's riven with small but irritating bugs. Then there are the large glaring bugs. We were getting booted from games a lot today and it came in waves. I understand they're tinkering in the background but it feels rickety. Nothing I do removes the cursor from the middle of the screen.

Gameplay whips though.

My biggest complaint right now is that something about the loading is criminally long; I don't know if it is the handshake or if it is actually loading in the resources or what.

Yeah I've noticed this. It may be other players sometimes, but the tutorial mission took ages to load from SSD too.

In v2 it was carrying a barrel everywhere for no reason until they get stabbed and it detonates friendly-firing everyone

the ammo situation is kind of dumb because the game doesn't really make it clear to you that you shouldn't be spamming your gun against everything, so of course people are gonna treat it as a traditional FPS. it's more a failing of fatshark's bad tutorials than the player, imo.

It takes one 20 minute game to understand bullets aren't infinite.

Mendrian posted:

Yeah what's more is that regular swords and axes just seem worse than the high tier unlocks? I mean like the flamer is obviously situational but the melee options don't really feel like trade offs.

This happens in all RPGs. Iron sword gets replaced by steel sword etc.

I'm sure the weapon variety will get tweaked too. Like if you find a knife that's crazy against single targets it may be an option for those plus specials missions.

The more I play, the more I'm convinced vet is for suppression and the psyker is the special/elite killer. Groups of shooting enemies absolutely melt your team if ignored

I actually had a really fun 4 vet game yesterday on that level where you're waiting for the elevator and the enemies approach over the bridge. We'd line up in 2 rows, the 2 guys in front would crouch and we'd all just go nuts with our lasguns lol.

The vet is good for drawing their fire and getting a couple of kills. I really like vet gameplay when the team are doing their thing. Hammering fire at special shooters, clipping one or two and taking the heat while heads explode or your melee gets to them unmolested.

The leveling story is pretty clearly just establishing you as a full member of the warband to prepare for whatever the seasonal story is gonna do but it is pretty lame - though I guess fairly reasonable in universe - that it’s just six cutscenes of “Go prove yourself. No, more, you dork.”

I like this personally.

These dark missions are pretty tough but the worst map condition is still having an Ogryn with a shield on your team. At least in the dark maps you can use your guns.

Counterpoint: the ogryn can just stand there immune to damage from a daemonhost while you hit it in the back with power weapons.

Weird. I love seeing them with a shield, especially if they can hold a door during a horde. Use melee, warp or energy weapons, problem solved. Ogryn has never blocked my voidstaff :colbert:

juggalo baby coffin posted:

every weapon in this game feels like it was balanced by a different person with a different idea of how difficult the game should be. like the disparity between the weapons is insane and i dont know how they got this far in development without realising that

It's a weird thing to balance imo. It may level out towards endgame but at level 20 I'm like of course a power sword is better than a knife or a shovel. The guns all seem pretty decent except for the finicky charge up lasgun though. Some stuff seems a bit one note but I'm sure they'll balance it out more over time.

I personally hope they don't go too far flattening out the weapons. Just make the weaker ones better at specific things.

Holy cow this thread is NOT lying about the veteran trooper and the power sword. amazing combo.
