I have the gagball. They dropped the "ball" by not making it infamous.

poptart_fairy posted:Kept myself blind about this and only discovered the release was pushed forward, gently caress. You'll get some enjoyment out of it but it's a pain in the rear end in the more complex heists. They're basically bodyguards that follow you around everywhere, but you still have to do all the crap solo with carrying bags, setting up drills, picking locks, etc. If you're being stealthy I think they'll sit outside until poo poo hits the fan but I haven't had much experience with it. Bots were fine on the four store heist for example, but I failed the bank heist because I just couldn't shoulder the whole thing myself. I'm also coming into this as a newb so YMMV. Also I only had two bot partners but in multiplayer you can do groups of four which makes things easier.

The guns in this don't feel nearly as good as something like Killing Floor or Rising Storm but the iron sights are good.

Man doing the safehouse intro just to have it crash was a disappointing way to head into work. Good on OK for already having a patch out I guess.

Chances are they had a patch ready a week ago, but couldn't update because steam would have had the gold release already

If you're running it for the Goon goodness (Goonness?) try closing it and using the in-game comm.

For some reason this fixes it for most people (including myself).

Remember, don't forget if your weapon lacks a silencer. Bank jobs get a lot harder when everyone knows you're there.

I haven't yet started playing and probably won't for another few hours at least,(job hunting  ) But from what I've heard you can't actually get all the way through all the skill trees. Is it possible to reset your skill level (or whatever you call it) back down to zero in order to progress up another tree? Or is this like Killing Floor, where progress can't be reset no matter what?I've intentionally kept myself a bit blind from the game, not even touching the beta since I liked the original but thought it had a ways to go on certain points but from what everyone's saying it seems to have solved those and then some. alg posted:The guns in this don't feel nearly as good as something like Killing Floor or Rising Storm but the iron sights are good. Edit: I'm looking at that skill calculator that was posted, what exactly does the enforcer's "oppressor" skill do? It says it increases suppression but I kind of figured that something that'd really only work on an actual human player. Does it just make enemies automatically keep their heads down, even with near misses? InequalityGodzilla fucked around with this message at 18:20 on Aug 13, 2013 |

A level 28 guy was showing me and my brother the ropes giving us basic rundown on the new stealth mechanics - my brother took down a security guard and the 28 dude went over to use his pager, only for another guard to wander in. 28 opened fire and just let out "oh poo poo" on realising he'd brought the wrong gun.

I'm not sure if it is or isn't though.

Since I can't seem to get 2 other persons together to play this, I've been trying to play with pugs a bit. Which is impossible, since the game browser is the worst thing ever, finding the game you want is a crap-shoot, then you don't know where the host is, what's the ping like, will he stop the game if he gets hit once etc. I finally manage to join a game and they get mad at me because I died covering the guy grabbing the cash. So they kick me, I go back searching for a game, manage to find one and almost immediately gently caress up because I couldn't see a guard shooting at me because his gun was pointing backwards or something and I die. The worst thing is I would have people to play with, but one of the guys keeps getting disconnected for some weird loving reason, like the game has no tolerance for packet loss at all. This game is infuriatingly hard to actually play, but when you play it it's fun like hell.

Yeah. Or, like, you scrape by on Overkill difficulty with one human player and two bots, bowling over the hundreds of dudes in the FBI Turtle Power Squad with buckshot, and you just drag your way to the end; then the game freezes on the victory screen and you get nothing.

Yeah I really hope they make it so it's easier to find missions and difficulties you want without waiting 5 minutes for the right one. The whole Crimenet map is cool and all, but at the very least make it so certain districts will only contain certain missions or give us an old fashion mission select. Especially if we unlock more missions as we rank up it'll quickly become a pain in the rear end to find that one mission on hard so you can show an underleveled friend how it works while still leveling them.

Keep in mind that ping doesn't really matter much in this game. You can play with someone in Russia and it'll feel silky smooth.

gently caress pubbies. I joined a group on Day 3 of the Framing heist (thinking that it would be easy money), and their total insistence on WE HAVE TO DO IT STEALTH GUYS and killing themselves over and over not even two minutes into the mission because one of them hosed up is just infuriating.

Well you can't get the big loot reward on that mission (several gold bags) if you get detected. Also if it was overkill difficulty it's ridiculously hard to beat that non-stealth at low levels. Days 1 and 2 were no problem at all but day 3  dreffen posted:Lesson here: no pubbies Also this. e: I got to level 30 and it said new heists unlocked, but I still don't see anything new in crime.net.

No, bust packet loss seems to affect it a whole bunch more than it should. Or this game just hates my friend who has some packet loss sometimes due to bad internets. We could still play borderlands 2 without any problems though!

Fuuuck, there was some issue with my preload so now I have to start downloading the whole thing over again. This is gonna take forever. In the mean time, how does this skill set look to people who've actually played the beta. I think it fits my usual playstyle as best it can. http://goo.gl/rwtahF

Is it just me or has Dominator (i.e. the Mastermind thing that lets him shout down armed enemies) become super unreliabe? We just tried to stealth Day 3 of Framing Frame several times in a row and without fail it would only ever work on the first guard we tried it on, with every one after that almost always going for his gun and shooting near instantly.

Is it just me or were the pubbies in beta a lot better at the game than the pubbies in release? It wouldn't be so bad but the Steam overlay has to stay disabled unless I want to crash every few missions
