Dr. VooDoo posted:How is the PC performance? When this first released I had seen rumblings the PC was kind of garbage and there was a lot of CTDs and poor Performance despite systems that should easily handle the game at max I’ve got a 1080 which has really started struggling on new releases the last six months or so, but this runs absolutely rock solid 60fps at 1440 for me, on quality upscaling. Looks great too.

even if you do decide to spend real money it's so much cheaper than any other game on the market. Like what, about 3-4 bucks for an armor and helmet set? Compared to the absurd $30+ skins in Diablo IV it's hard to get mad at this

queeb posted:If you reload the auto cannon with at least one shot left in it it'll reload like 10x as fast as doing it empty The autocannon is even a bit more fiddly with reloads than other weapons. It has a capacity of 10 rounds and it can’t eject a partial clip like other guns. Each clip is 5 rounds, so you can only get back up to full from 5/10 or 0/10 remaining. So just reload at half every time and you’ll always get the fast reload. RBA Starblade posted:Democracy never sleeps I think you mean managed democracy, soldier.

The Grumbles posted:Yeah this is it I think, it's taken all the dry seriousness out of what would otherwise be a lot of hardcore military sim mechanics, and added in just a huge amount of heart and personality. The bombast of it all - especially the incredible visual flair - also kind of makes those hardcore mechanics come across as approachable and arcadey. Just a great job all round imo the key to the games success is that it’s still fun as hell whether you’re winning or losing. Perfectly nailing an objective or patrol with an orbital is extremely satisfying, but accidentally blowing up your squad is hilarious, so you win either way.

BitBasher posted:Most things I shoot in third person while aiming. The Arc I shoot from the hip occasionally because aiming isn't too important but the timing is easier when aiming because of the charge indicator. you can change the settings so the crosshair always appears and you can get the charge indicator when hip-firing.

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:my team absolutely just got slaughtered on maia by the aerial gunship factories, nobody could get behind enemy lines to hellbomb the place and we just smashed ourselves against the waves until resource exhaustion. it was awesome lol Yeah I found that the gunships actually seem to focus on destroying the hellbomb once you call it down so it's really hard to actually set it off if there's any still in the air. Makes it way harder to take out than a shrieker nest. On that note - has anyone figured out if there's any way to destroy the gunship tower other than the hellbomb? I tried blasting it with a quasar cannon a bunch of times and that did nothing. Stratagems I tried didn't seem to work either. Maybe if you position the 500kg right? Or hit directly with an orbital barrage?

d0grent posted:idk if I like the sickle against bots, I empty almost a whole 'clip' into a devastator and then promptly get blasted into hell not to be an rear end in a top hat but have you tried just aiming for their faces? I feel like I pop devvy heads like crazy with the sickle, like I'm always surprised by how fast they go down. Plus you can just sweep it over a big pack of little guys at roughly head height and you'll usually get most of them.

Sindai posted:Anyone else notice the momentum imparted by Eruptor explosions is negative or something? It sucks you towards the point of impact instead of throwing you away. I think it has blowback like the recoilless. Back right up to a wall and fire and you’ll get flung forward. I also killed a squadmate who was right behind me when I fired. It honestly feels like a bug to me, there’s nothing to indicate it should work that way.

If you find the eruptor hard to aim try crouching more. I crouch (or prone) for literally almost every shot I take. You get into a good rhythm of crouch, fire, then if you need to you can sprint out of the crouch away while you rack the next shot before sliding into a crouch and firing again. It takes no time at all to crouch and stand up again, and it makes such a huge difference I always notice if I’m on uneven terrain and the crouch doesn’t quite take. Also diving backwards to fire at bugs that get up close will stop you from getting ragdolled by your own shrapnel most of the time. Plus you get to feel like max payne.

Astrochicken posted:Yes! I got into the habit of crouching while firing w/ most guns and maybe going prone to reload (this while fighting bots). I started doing the dive back to shoot near bugs that got too close for comfort. I hope not. Eruptor has quickly become my favourite gun. It doesn’t feel overpowered to me, I think it’s fairly well balanced by how cumbersome it is. The crossbow needs a boost for sure though.

Dilber posted:Is there some sort of hidden spawn balance change over the last couple of days or are spawns bugged. I've been having some absolutely wild games recently with friends where difficulty is randomly through the roof. I was playing level 4 with some low level friends and a base had 4 hulks and 2 tanks in it. Level 5 bots has been weird where I've gotten entire bot drops of just hulks or heavy devestators. I had a bot mission tonight on 7 that was pretty nuts. It felt like every single dropship was all rocket devastators and hulks so we were constantly getting blown up from all angles. It definitely feels like it’s been a little more hectic the last few days.

Dren posted:They need to keep their content release cadence or the popularity of the game will fall off. The correct answer is to do both by spending some of the giant pile of money they just got to expand the team. If they’re not set up to scale, that will be painful. But, it’s the answer. I mean there's been over 10,000 layoffs in the game industry this year in part because companies are constantly scaling up and down like this so no, I don't really think that's the "correct answer". I'd much rather they are slow and sustainable. Maybe players should just be loving patient instead.

Infidelicious posted:The Sickle needs a reduction in ICE to make you actually give a poo poo about the cooldown mechanic, and make overheating it a tradeoff / drawback like the Laser Cannon; instead of just treating it like a Liberator+. yeah I think they could halve the number of reloads you get and I wouldn't even notice

Jerkface posted:it already paid for it with its handling, projectile speed and bounce, the small magazine size, fire rate, inability to be used in close quarters and ineffectiveness vs spread out targets? yeah the eruptor felt like it was in a decent place to me before. Sure it was very strong, but it also had huge drawbacks in that it was dangerous, slow (both the fire rate and handling) and had limited ammo. Now it just feels useless because those drawbacks massively outweigh the damage it puts out. The shrapnel also made it unique and interesting, now it just feels like a worse version of the other explosive primaries. I don't know why they saw the self/team damage as a problem. That was part of what made it risky and fun to use. If anything I would have preferred that they nerfed it by making it even more deadly to the wielder.

Risky Bisquick posted:I’m tempted to go back and see how many people complaining about the eruptor nerf were ok with the railgun nerf, just a bit tempted I mean both of those nerfs were overdone imo. They probably both needed some sort of nerf but now they both just feel flat out bad to use.

Schwawa posted:it might be fine or viable but is it good? Does it do anything that the AMR or Autocannon doesn't do dramatically better and easier? I'm genuinely asking here just btw. I rarely use the railgun because it seems so anaemic whenever I've tried it. I don't need every gun to be exactly as good as each other, but I at least want them to feel fun, and the railgun as it is now straight up doesn't imo.

johnny park posted:It deletes medium-armor enemies at close range better than either since it has great handling, a third person reticle, and no self-damage (with one exception). I think it has a niche. Solid all-rounder fair enough!

Bottom Liner posted:Only problem I have with current railgun is that it fills the same niche as AMR but worse in every way. Unsafe mode should do a lot more damage, like Quasar level when near full charge. yeah the risk/reward on unsafe mode is way off. No other gun kills you and destroys itself if you gently caress up using it, the reward for doing so should be massive. Make the safe charging window shorter if you have to balance it, but for such a heavy downside you should be getting a big benefit.

Lovely Joe Stalin posted:Flamer and orbital gas are both great now. Loved actually being able to use the flame thrower without having basic bugs leap through the flames at me. Gas does go invisible after the initial green burst though, so that's not optimal. Might only have been on Heeth though. yeah gas finally feels pretty good now. Last time I tried it before the DoT fix I was getting literally zero kills when I dropped it on a breach. Last night I managed to get a 35x on extract with a single gas strike. Definitely managed to kill myself walking into a cloud I thought had dissipated though.

Sagebrush posted:
the 3 slot one is the worst but all of the mission modifiers suck and may as well just be scrapped. None of them are interesting or change the way you play the game. They don't make it harder, they just make it a little more boring. The cooldown one I literally don't notice at all. Plus they already have in-mission modifiers that are vastly more interesting- stratagem jammers, anti-air emplacements, spore spewers etc. These significantly change the way a mission feels and they give you new strategic objectives that mix things up and make the missions feel dynamic. You've also got the weather effects which are much more interesting than the overall mission modifiers. Fire tornadoes and meteor showers might be frustrating but at least they aren't straight up boring. I'm sure they could implement mission modifiers that would be more interesting but the ones they have now are pointless imo.
