TF2 HAT MINING RIG posted:The one thing I wish this game did more of was having you fortify existing buildings. Other than that I'm good so far. That would be really cool aesthetically, the most practical option being to tear everything around the objective down does take away from how fun the randomly generated maps are. Maybe just being able to click the right stick upgrade thing. There could definitely be a mini objective to defend against a wave attacking an existing building, something quick enough that people won't build much/use the existing structure that matches the cinematic trailer more.

Got a rarer Rocket launcher schematic from a founder's llama yesterday. Immediately took it up to level 10 and I have no regrets. Only a couple uses? Doesn't matter when it wipes out groups of husks at a time.  LuciferMorningstar posted:Question regarding disposing of dupes: Schematics can have different bonuses. You might get two of the same rare/epic/legendary weapon and one could have an elemental damage bonus while the other does not, or has a different element (which could make keeping both a good idea). And then you get a schematic with 3 decay reduction bonuses and have a very long lasting weapon for killing random husks.

ImpactVector posted:Someone said that the v-coins don't transfer between the two systems though, so watch out for that maybe. Yeah vbucks are bound to platform. I guess it's their try to cut down on people only buying it on the platform & region where points are the cheapest due to exchange rates. Alternatively it could have something to do with PSN store ToS.

So... I'm doing a lot of 19+ plus missions with 20+ weapons and a 2 star hero. Most of my T1 research and commander upgrades are full and all my squads are pretty well situated. WHY DOES EVERYTHING TAKE SO LONG TO KILL. I have a legendary 25 shotgun and it takes two headshots to kill a single normal husk. What. In. The. gently caress.

My homebase power is 16 but I've progressed into the 19+ missions. Maybe I didn't grind as much as it expected me to. I'm gonna go back to the 9s and grind some more.

The "tutorial" is dogshit. but once you actually figure out what is going on, the game becomes very fun and purposeful. hot base building tip: upgrading (you need skills unlocked in the skill tree) counts towards your build score but NOT your base pieces limit. So if you want to keep your base a small and compact killing machine upgrading materials is the way to go. edit2: if you've got an epic level all rounder assault rifle the zombie-infested world is your oyster.

What heroes is everyone playing? I leveled a blue brawler ninja to level 20, and she's pretty fun and does good DPS. I also have a level 20 blue Powerbase builder, and i use him for shield defenses and to help friends. I do have an epic enforcer outlander (TEDDY spec) that sounds like it could be fun.

Epic Ninja whose sword passives I'm currently ignoring because I have an Epic Laser Scythe with +35% Crit Chance, +10% Damage & Affliction on hit for 6s. I'm also trying out that Hero Squad Bonus for Greater Impact & +1.5s stun on melee crits, though I'm not entirely sure if it's doing anything. Dragon Slash is pretty great, and double jump is awesome, not only for the height clearance, but also for the fact that if you use a directional jump pad and double jump while still under the jump pad's influence, you go flying

Raskolnikov posted:Shotguns are garbage and need a serious buff. Shotguns trade all of their damage and range for stunning power and ease of supply. Whether you can figure out what targets to shoot at with those stats is up to you. (Hint, not regular husks.) Unless you're trying to talk poo poo about auto shotguns which are magical engines of death. They made the same trade as regular shotguns, but the got a refund on the damage because this is a gacha game at heart. Some pulls are better than others. (Why else are scope-less sniper rifles a thing?) Veritas posted:What heroes is everyone playing? I leveled a blue brawler ninja to level 20, and she's pretty fun and does good DPS.

Has anyone tried a TEDDY build? TEDDY is weak in public games. In theory an outlander can gather 2 fragments, the team does Van part 1 and the outlander can sweep enemies clear twice. Then the team continues to gently caress around for a while to fortify for part 2 while the outlander gets another two fragments. In practice once your team is fortified for part 1, then part 2 is just a victory lap. I feel like that mission type should be changed so that part 1 is launching Lars and part 2 is launching some support. I don't know exactly, a cooler of snacks? That way mission success can be tied to an easy part 1 and one or two chest upgrades can be tied to a hard-rear end part 2. Buuuut. None of that really matters because outlanders are the best class even without bringing any non-selfish tools. Do you want to teleport through walls to grab the chest your teammates don't even know is there before they can beat you to it? Do you want to Kool-Aid Man your way through rare resource deposits and high metal objects to collect them without slowing down? Outlanders are all about that. And sometimes you give out a few trinkets when people are complaining about how they never have enough gizmos, powercells, ore, nuts and bolts, or any other rubbish you routinely throw out of your pack. And they mistake your action for generosity. They don't know the truth. They're only poor because you and the other outlanders and taking everything of value before they can even round the corner to see it was there. (And then throwing it away when they aren't looking because SERIOUSLY backpacks fill up quickly no matter how much room you have unlocked.)

Internet Kraken posted:What the gently caress happened to games that people are okay with this We live in a simulated universe. Is pointless to ask why is configured like is configured, as the emulator runs in a universe with 8 dimensions and we don't get to understand it. My theory is that our universe is a screensaver on somebody PC. Is kind of .... great that you can pay has much has you want for games. You can choose how much you want to pay for Fortnite, and pay that. If you want to pay zero, you only have to wait one year. What is not great is the game mobile-like shape of some features. Like progress tied to pass of real time. Daily XP softcaps. And all that stuff from the fremiun culture. But if we survived to the 80s culture of arcade saloon culture ( paying 25 to play maybe one minute or so long until you died 3 times) that absolutelly sucked, we can survive this. Personally I play a game has long as is fun. If a game stop being fun, is dead to me. If the game make me happy and give me good times, I may even reward that with my money.

Consumable quest rewards that allow you to upgrade one item's rarity when? Make them super limited even, as a final quest reward for each zone or something. But let me get some guaranteed better poo poo every so often.Akumos posted:People who think shotguns are bad need to try epic/leg auto shotguns upgraded to lv15-20, esp with Energy conversion. Mag dumping that on bigger mobs is insane damage. With very, very few exceptions, they can't reliably hit a drat thing more than 10 feet away. How is it that the only game in recent memory to actually do shotguns well is Halo CE?
