feedtheid posted:Moreover, Gunner is an enforcer - his point is to be a wall and punish people that don't "get it." Karl is mobility and damage, and Spark is just straight damage. I don't think it's that odd for him to get outdpsed. To be honest Gunner isn't much of a wall. Any kind of pressure and he just falls over, even with team support. Not to mention both Spark and Karl have really, really good debuffs too add on their high DPS and Slam.... well it sucks, especially now that everyone and their dog runs Can't Slow This.

Orange Crush Rush posted:Who the gently caress cares about Skins, I just wanna know why Karl and Spark can still drat near out DPS the Gunner. I thought that was the point of Commandos, they're high DPS, fragile gankers, right? I'd say the fact that if you get caught out of position as the Gunner you're flat out hosed 99% of the time is a bigger issue for him than his DPS. Once you commit to a fight one of you is going to die no matter what.

Regarding Spark's alt fire:Scathis posted:Yes, we looked into it and there isn't strong evidence, yet, that it needs altering. We are continuing to evaluate it though. I've been doing super well on Spark lately and I didn't even realize how often and easily you could use his right RMB. I just gave it a spin and it seems really, really absurd when you can use it properly. I'm not sure how they think it's okay.

Bottom Liner posted:Sweet, free Karl. Pretty vanilla patch all in all, but that Cheston skin is great. It fuckin' is, isn't it? I was seriously thinking about buying it until I saw they're asking TWENTY FIVE GODDAMN DOLLARS FOR IT. Hahahahaha, yeah, good luck with that Uber. I guess since the playerbase is so small right now they can't just shoot for massive sales at low prices, but I hope once they open up they figure out a way to massively lower the prices. Big weekly or daily sales or something.

Taiso posted:Need picture of Rocket Demon stat!  Prices are real, I am kind of upset they're charging 30$ for the new Cheston skin. e: 800 uberpoitns for most weapons, really. e2: Apparently those "25% off" things are actually just how much they'd cost separate, it's still insane prices for these weapons though.

Violently Car posted:Hey, vote with your wallets. If people actually pay for the items, the prices won't go down. I feel like I've already seen way too many Stab Demons for how little it is changed compared to Outland skins. Also, weapon models are coming later, welp.

The new weapon skins are just solid gradients. I figured they were just placeholders.

Violently Car posted:Hey, vote with your wallets. If people actually pay for the items, the prices won't go down. Yup. Ekanaut straight-up said they're doing market testing with these high prices. Like Eigo said, the Stab Demon skin seemed to be selling pretty well despite a very high price. The only logical next step is to keep raising prices to try to find the price ceiling of what players are willing to play for a cool skin.

Veteran is still way over the top. He's still a commando with enforcer health and initiation.

Veteran is a train-wreck. He's hardly overpowered, but he's a niche no other Pro fills. They either need to make a sixth class, revamp him, or makes similar changes to the other enforcers. I think the one thing the community can actually agree on is that Veteran is a must-have on every team.

The problem boils down to Kaclaw. It's the only instant kill in the game. Without it he's a tanky commando without great escape (dash/rolls is nowhere near the real commando escapes). Kaclaw is just that good. At any stage of the game it is a serious threat and can be an instant kill from turrets/chain grabs/ring outs. The only thing that keeps it in check is how damned buggy it is; grabbing someone on a clear flat path and them moving perpendicular to your claw path, for example.

Well on the plus side I can go another week of riding on Eigo's coattails and getting easy wins while he goes 19-0 as Spark.

<3 Eigo. Good matches tonight, guys! It's not often I go against a game's devs twice in a row and win both times. Think I've finally sort of found my groove as Cheston (and to a lesser degree Assault) lately, which oddly enough have become my main dudes. Thought I'd enjoy Combat Girl and Support a lot more since I tend to have fun as a medic type class, but the turrets just frustrate me. So gorilla it is! Managed to finally get enough combat credits to grab Critically Late tonight just as we stopped playing, though. That'll be fun to play with once I get back from spring break.

I top as every class, get on my level scrub.  (except when I don't)Also does anyone know if there's any products to counter sniper's ice traps? I know can't slow this doesn't, but I really hope can't stun this does because I can't bring myself to buy it for Karl alone.

They probably will at some point, but just minutes after the update launched I played a game where someone had the full Holy Roller uniform and the golden launcher so people are clearly willing to pay whatever.

My group actually ran into a dev last night. It was just one dev on their side, however. We won in spite of playing Wascot particularly bad. I admit, I am out of practice because holy gently caress Spark is fun and I've been playing him a lot lately.
