Dr. VooDoo posted:Well right now I'm leaning towards the dragonhead class sadly not being a Fist of the Northstar style kung-fu man but using bladed weapons instead. I noticed everything talked about today with the Berserker mentioned all blunt or heavy weapons. Noticeably absent in PCGamer's class rundown was the katana. So I'm guessing the Bererker is the heavy slow crowd control melee class since a lot of the perks for the class talk about stunning and knock back/knock down and the dragon head class will be a fast damage class but will be much more fragile with less stunning If you look at the skills, one one or two of them are good for kiting ala KF1. The rest are about knocking down and damaging enemies. KF2 Berserker seems like it's a boosted version of KF1 Berserker's power and crowd control. It's also not strictly melee; the Nail Gun is a straight-up firearm, while the Eviviscator can shoot blades as well as hack enemies to pieces. Of course, this won't stop KF1 Zerk pub stars from trying to kite and failing miserably.

Hang about, I can't see a carry weight indicator in any of the footage. How can I min-max my loadout without a constant reminder I'm two weight slots below maximum? The UI is flawed. FLAWED, I say! From a more practical perspective, how can I tell if I've got room for

A video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4prIMTtR8-M I really dislike how first person sprinting animation looks like you are running really fast but your actual movement speed doesn't match that. It's like running on treadmill. Edit: It looks fine in third person though. Sininu fucked around with this message at 16:18 on Mar 28, 2015 |

The new Berserker Sledge-gun looks amazing with the whole "hit a guy and shoot him too" thing. Also, the new and improved Fleshpound enrage animation.

Not liking the pain sound effects when you take damage. But really liking the UI (nice job Turnways!) and the good quality of in-game voice chat. Way, way better than the voice chat from KF. Synthwave Crusader fucked around with this message at 17:35 on Mar 28, 2015 |

One thing I really liked was the whole blood/gore thing they had going on. In most modern games the engine just paints a temporary blood splatter, bullet hole, scorch mark, etc. onto the terrain which gets computationally heavy after a while when you have a few hundred of them painted everywhere. So they despawn after a while and you end up with virgin terrain again. One of the earliest teasers for KF2 they talked about their new system where they dynamically edit the world's texture files so that the blood splatter is forever a part of the world until you reload it (i.e. start a new game). It's probably a bit finicky and took a bit of work to do (since no one else has done it), but in the end it's cheaper, easier on the system and blood stains/battle damage is permanent. One of my favorite moments is when the players walked into an area and went "Wow, look at all the blood here" because they'd already fought in that room and painted it red during a previous wave. In any other game the room would have reset when they left the area because the game would have been busy drawing new blood splatters and removing the old ones from memory to save space, in KF2 the evidence of their carnage lasted the entire match. That being said the blood looked absolutely goofy on the otherwise pure white snow. Maybe in the next game they'll have the trick done well enough they can have it so that people walking over the snow and throwing grenades reduces it to something that looks more like proper well traveled (and blood-covered) slush. The technology and programming behind it is still pretty awesome.Edit: Oh, and the UI was nice. Everything was clear, you could immediately tell what was going on with all the players despite the video rapidly jumping between them. I do hope there's a slider so that we can change the color if we want something other than blood red lines/numbers (call me weird but I always set the Fallout 3/NV UI to amber).

The new gore tech looks incredible with the katana, it was only out for a second but it was like metal gear rising decided to make a cameo. I'm pleased to see how strong melee is in general, with the apparently increased difficulty I think it's going to matter a lot.

Interesting to see that they gave the Berserker the nailgun as a perk weapon. With enemies seeming more fast and furious, a distance weapon sounds like a good addition while you're leveling up in the beginning. Pulverizer looks cool, too. Having a resource cost for your big whammies already goes a long way in balancing out Berserker. Not sure if it was doing stuns or knockbacks to Scrakes in the video.

I think it's to stagger large groups, since it seems to have a heavy impact and quicker fire than swinging a nailbat.

Commandos need to get called out for being terrible! God the amount of times they ignored walkers! Unloading into the bellies of bloats before and after their heads are taken off! My blood pressure is through the god damned roof here. Have I always been playing wrong? When you see a horde and you got a berzerker, kill the walkers first, right? I'm confused why Tripwire hasn't learned from KF1 to noclip characters during buy times. Broose fucked around with this message at 18:22 on Mar 28, 2015 |

Well, in that video, the dude who was playing Berserker was using that 9MM AR-15 he found for the longest time. I imagine it being not only off-perk but a starter weapon as well was the reason why it seemed to be doing so poorly.

The Nail Gun seemed like a good, large magazine, single-shot pistol for the Berserker. Probably a very close range pistol with some stun close in but quickly loses damage. Good to see the class getting not only some range (nailgun and eviscerator alt-fire). And having a resource cost on your really powerful attacks (pulverizer heavy fire, two seperate resources to run the eviscerator in melee or ranged mode) does bring the Berserker back in line with other classes so it's not an infinite money fountain anymore.

It's not noclip but the player collision is shrunk waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down during buy time. If it ends up being a problem we can always remove it entirely but currently it's so small that players shouldn't be able to block each other in doorways or anything like that.

Liking the welder's progress animation. Maybe less useful compared to a big percentage number, but way cooler looking. e: This game has come a dang long way from being an Unreal Tournament mod. Bogart fucked around with this message at 18:53 on Mar 28, 2015 |

Oh, yeah, forgot to say that I really loved the big glowing blue line in the center representing the doah integrity. Don't need to be close by to see the strength anymore. Also the scrake getting its entire upper body exploded by the impact sledge was awesome.

If it ends up being a problem we can always remove it entirely but currently it's so small that players shouldn't be able to block each other in doorways or anything like that. Good enough I suppose. Just got worried when I saw the dude get hung up in a door way while heading inside to buy stuff on one of the last waves. There was only one guy there, and I imagine if he just moved a bit to the left he would get through. But then what about groups of people being dicks like that, or someone moving side to side just to slow people down. Oh, is there a score screen as well? Does it come default with a count of how much money everyone has? I liked that it got made into a default feature after being a server side mod for so long in KF1.

The UI is really really slick in motion. It's got everything the original had but prettied up, moved around or altered to suit the gameplay flow better and I'd say Turnways (and the rest of the UI team, if there is one) has spent his/their time well. My earlier gripe about the weight counter was mostly because I couldn't think of anything else to complain about, and even then I'm not sure how you could implement it without unbalancing things visually.

The money sign is like a Euro but with the curved part of a D tacked onto the right half, it's definitely dosh.  And those 200fps animations are straight bullet time, the spent casings were just streaming puffs of smoke as the guns spat 'em out. It'll look even better when someone puts out a workshop mod to do Zack Synder 300/Hotline Miami style oversaturated hyper colors in slow mo.Broose posted:Commandos need to get called out for being terrible!

alg posted:ugh these shitlords who reload with 12 in their mag I'm not sure what your problem with that is, you always kept the half empy mags as backups in KF1 once you ran through the rest of your full mags. I wouldn't mind them making it one big pool though as a small streamlining thing. It was always better to have a full mag for the next wave rather then a half empty one you needed to reload as things swarmed your face. Difference of opinion tho I guess. That entire video was awesome aside from the small gripes I had with their playstyle, everything in motion was pretty fantastic. Seeing that fleshpound spin attack was amazing and also goddamn scary as hell, that was a poo poo load of damage it did to all of them. I also grinned every time the dude used the heavy attack on the pulverizer, that pump action is the best thing.
