Has anyone experienced certain maps spawning invisible mobs instead of the normal enemies? Also they don't attack or make noise and I think they are invincible. Specifically, I was checking out KF-Survival and KF-TestMap6p on solo. Is it because these maps are trying to spawn specific zeds and the xmas ones have different IDs? Did they patch out the old models entirely?

Enigma posted:Hey, Eikre! Duly noted. Also as I add new maps, I'll be adding them to into my Dropbox account and posting events/announcements up in the Steam Group as well as the thread, letting people know that I've updated the map list. First one will be tomorrow morning since I'm headed to bed early tonight (gently caress finals I'm glad I'm done with them)

Are you using any mutators? I had that happen in solo during the current event when I had a mutator on (one of the ones that replaces all zed with type "x"). Turning the mutator off fixed it (and they appeared in all their festive attire).

This happens to me when i try to play solo or make a listen server. They're not invincible, but it's sort of hard to figure out where they are. (Also perks don't seem to work while this is happening)

Could anyone give a rundown of any of the perks/classes that are completely useless for Suicide/HoE? I'm guessing Firebug just messes everyone's aim up completely and does nothing for damage. Likewise, I enjoy demolition, but I suspect they aren't as good either. Those are both of my favorite classes, but I don't want to end up grinding them up to find them non-viable for the "end" game.

I don't play HoE very often, but I play suicide 90% of the time. I can safely say that any perk is useful if the player is competent. Firebug is typically not a camp friendly perk because, as you noted, it messes up people's aim. However, while kiting when everyone is trying to get ahead of the mob ZEDs having a firebug at the rear can work wonders with a flamethrower. They can easily slaughter all the stalkers and gorefests that race to the front of the mob without worrying about husks. When you drag a mob of ZEDs through a bottleneck(doorway) firebug can also douse them all with fire very easily with very little ammo. Firebug just requires a LOT more finesse to use at suicidal/HoE compared to lower skill levels. You can go through all of your ammo very quickly and VERY inefficiently with firebug. The flamethrower goes through ZEDs so shooting at individual ZEDs is very wasteful. The flamethrower however is a poor choice against a Husk, Scrake or Fleshpound for obvious reasons. I haven't played with the Husk gun much, but it seeks very powerful when charged. I plan to do some testing with it very soon. Demolition can be very useful, but they sort of need to stay near a zerker at all times because... well, all of their native weapons are explosives! Demolitions are great if the mob of ZEDs is at a distance, they are useless when the ZEDs are face to face. Support, Medic, Berzerker, Sharpshooter are all very VERY useful. Firebug and Demolition require more "care" to use effectively on Suicidal/HoE as discussed above. Commando, oddly enough, works very well for "support" Since they can see the health remaining of ZEDs. When fighting Scrakes and FPs one of the big problems is not knowing how much health they have left. Commando can also see the patriarch when it's invisible too. The trouble with Commando is their weapons don't quite excel at massive instantaneous damage like most other perks. Many players have a hard time justifying Commando on Suicide or HoE, but I've seen it used effectively on both difficulties. It just requires a more cautious conservative approach similar to sharpshooter.

Commando should be doing trash mob wiping on Sui/HoE and only that, a good Commando is utterly devastating. I had one on my list that had like 1200 hours and used to be an old quake champion to boot, dude was a monster, nothing would get through when I played with him, all he needed was help with the big things and he would even the shoot small poo poo pestering me while I handled scrakes and FP's. Crazy part, he didn't use the scar or the pup, just the AK.

Perk choice on higher difficulties is very dependent on the map in question and the strategy you want to use to beat it, but one of the great things about this game is that all perks have their different uses and niches, and all are useful in a variety of situations.

Alteisen posted:Commando should be doing trash mob wiping on Sui/HoE and only that, a good Commando is utterly devastating. There was a crazy commando I played with more than once. He could easily take on FPs while wiping out almost everything else. The only thing he had trouble with was Scrakes. He also preferred the AK over the SCAR. He'd take a pot shot or two at the FP, shoot like 5 other mobs down, and then go back to the FP for a couple shots. I once saw him juggle 3 FPs while kiting around everything else on suicide when everyone else died. By the end of the wave He had killed everything except 8 Scrakes. He took out 3 before cocking up and dieing. EDIT: One thing that is ALWAYS fun and lopsided is to have EVERYONE be the same perk. Its difficult and requires good teamwork but it's often rewarding and funny. Nubcakes fucked around with this message at 16:26 on Dec 15, 2011 |

We all took different roles and everyone did their part. It was great. Money was shared, Zeds were toasted, a good time was had by all! I wasn't paying attention though and brought my flamethrower to the patriarch fight, wasn't an issue but I was pretty useless. Also, anyone have any advice for in-game mics? Mine works for teamspeak and skype, but I can't seem to transmit on the in-game system.

I dont think they were... Usually when one team was loosing horribly in New Tokyo when everyone was on the verge of not even trying or rage quitting someone would sometimes say words to the effect of: This calls for Bro squad! Everyone would then switch to Support(High health/armor), use a shotgun, and stay in 1 single large group. It was actually pretty cheap when I played Neo Tokyo and nearly unbeatable. I used the reference because in Killing Floor having 6 support specialists with shotguns is pretty much invincible provided no one is trolling or functionally impaired. In a way it is like bro squad from Neo Tokyo.

Most go in steamapps/common/kf/maps/ as az said, but a few of them have a directory in the zip file that has stuff that goes in .../kf/music etc., so pay attention when you unzip them. Add me if you play on the GotKF server. I'm on there a lot.

Thanks for the heads up about the broken links. I fixed them now, so you can download from there. Quick note about the map downloads: Some of the maps come with other stuff, like textures and poo poo. Make sure you put these in their appropriate place. Also yeah, someone might have reported the bug to the devs so don't be surprised if they push out a patch that fixes this wonderful bug.  \E: Some of these maps haven't been added yet because I have to add additional files such as texture/music/etc. to the server files as well. If all goes well I'll be uploading these tonight, with a server restart occurring shortly after. I'll make an announcement in the group as well as hop into the server if anyone is playing and let them know. Synthwave Crusader fucked around with this message at 22:38 on Dec 15, 2011 |

Also, about using SAM, In my opinion, there's only one acceptable use for that, and it's for stalker leveling because you know what, gently caress Stalkers. The level 6 requirement is ridiculous. Medic level 6 requirement is easy enough to get because you heal people even when you're not medic. The rest of the requirements are easy as well, damage is easy to rack up. You don't even need to use SAM on welding points. Just leave your game running with one clot clawing at a door while you either hold down your weld key with something and leave or just shift+tab and it stays welding. I personally used the Doom-Final map (Bob's Whorehouse Servers) to grind all my damage requirements and got them pretty fast. I SAM'd the Stalker and cheesed the welding by leaving my game running overnight with the weld key bound to mouse1 with a clot clawing at a door while I welded.

Started playing this again when the sale came up. Had over 200 hours on my old account before I had to make another steam account. Have 77 hours or so right now and I've already got level 3 sharpshooter and level 1 in most of the other ones. It's not too hard to grind things out. Cept Stalkers, yeah those are a pain. Did they buff the LAR to be a killing machine? I've been using that instead of the M14 because it seems to have a better head shot critical.

However, if you're just going to stick a welding key down with a clot clawing at a door and go to bed, you might as well use SAM and save that time. Neither method is doing it the "real" way. But welding and stalker kills seem like busy-work, rather than legitimate gaming "practice".
