The Gasmask posted:Finally got a research match again last night, first since Steam. Looks like people are hitting lvls 4-6 now, and I've been able to find games in that block under a minute now. I'm not sure where the level dropoff is since I'd already gotten to lvl10 on both Fringe and Army before the rep change, but it may be quite a while before the majority have leveled up that much.

Does anyone know if they plan to wipe at the end of the current beta? I played this before it came to Steam but put it on the back burner because I didn't feel like going in too deep and have to restart.

Early progression isnt bad at all, it took me like 15 matches to go from 0 as bandits to halfway through their final rank

What worries me is how quickly you die - about as fast as any character from battle field or any other army man shooter. That's fine for this Death Match mode, but is this how it's going to be in the fee form exploration version? Just get clobbered by a dude with a sub machine gun on your flank and whelp.

I take it you've never played any of the Stalker games? That's pretty much how it goes until you get an exosuit/artifacts or mod the game. It's kind of the spirit of the game-with the anomalies, random monsters, other players, etc: it's not about if you die, it's about how long you manage to survive in between.

Except that stalker games are single player is this is multiplayer - aint gonna be no quick load key. I think what's more telling is I've never played any Day Z style game, so maybe I'm just not set for the amount of bush wacking that's going to happen.

This game has been advertised as "Stalker the mmo" so it will end up being that kind of bushwack action-that's why you have different factions, etc. Speaking of, just saw that sZone is on steam? It's literally Stalker MMO, same engine and everything-anyone bother playing that? I'd hate to find out just how loving janky the xray engine is on an online basis, personally.

So the Survarium site keeps saying that my native region is Europe. Is there a way to change that, because I'm not seeing the option. Would really rather not have to create a new account, since I have a bunch of stuff and some gold on it already. E: Nevermind. Linked my accounts and I'm at level zero  gently caress my life.

Yeah turned out I used an account I made like 2 years ago that I never played with  But the feature to use a different account/unlink one account from steam is Coming Soon, per support. So unless I re-download the old client I'm stuck.Although I gotta say, playing on NA servers has cut down on so many bullshit deaths-now I can almost always tell what I died from, unlike what was going on on the RUS servers. And since there's so many new players, just running around with a basic Kiparis means I top out scoreboards every time.

Jesus this UI is loving awful The UI is responsible for like 3/4 of the complaints in this game, it's amazing. Nothing is clear, so even figuring out how to add ammo to a gun or upgrade or modify is strictly trial and error. The questions I get in chat just shouldn't happen, when you have new players who can't figure out how to play because you need to set the ammo first you know you've hosed up.

I'm hoping they change how the MM stuff works, right now I have to use lvl10+ equip to do the missions, which means I'm getting matched against complete noobs most of the time - except for my last 2 games. Don't know if it's because someone was downloading something at my place or what, but even though my ping said 30 I was getting tons of phantom kills and it felt like I was moving through molasses. Like it used to be! Reminded me how much I don't miss that, as really all I could do was rage as I unloaded a full clip of PP2000 into someone at like 30m, had a kill indicator so I went to reload, and had a "huh??" moment when they looked at me for a full two seconds then got a clear headshot  .I'm guessing medkits also play into these situations a lot more now that they're instant, but you'd think the game would withhold a kill indicator until the party is actually dead - I'm thinking it shows when you've done a certain amount of damage (100), but if they used a medkit when they were down to 30 life and were able to get up enough before more bullets connected, the game would tell you "Oh, they're totally dead!" when they're not. Seems like a side effect of server-side calculations for actual damage, but client-side for what it displays before the results get back from the server.

The gun is a hose of death - oft scoring headshots at extreme ranges, and nothing else can outdo its pure damage for close-up fights. It does suffer from a tiny magazine, but the simple fact that you can just vaporize someone by looking at them, and the decently quick reload, make up for this.

Megafunk posted:I am so happy I got a Remington 700 in a drop way before I can actually buy it normally. This thing oneshots just about everybody at medium range. I'm at gear lvl 11 and still use the Remington 700/PP2000 exclusively. Though it's bolt-action, it's got one hell of a punch and with a distance mod can OHK people pretty much anywhere on a map. Best aiming technique is to strafe side to side on level with their upper body, and click when it's right over them. It creates a moving target so they can't hit you as easily, and since 90% of people will be crouched and standing still hitting them is very easy. E: I wish I could enjoy the SR2M, but the sights just don't work for me. They feel too blocky, and I just do so much better with the PP2000. Hoping 0.28 brings some sight changes since at least 2 of the guns have their sights off to the left of actual bullet projection.

So many weapon sights just suck horrendously. They really need to get on the attachment system, cause you pretty much need a red dot or holo for those irons to be any good. Also don't go on the game forums, you'll end up with your eyes bleeding. Holy poo poo the amount of whining and ~righteous outrage~ that goes on there, especially over premium weapons (which I have yet to come to fear in any way-come up a few times against dudes with gold VSS/Saigas/AKs and at worst I end up even with them  Rather go up against that than lvl 13-15 dudes rocking VALs and VSK-94's. Now THAT poo poo is scary when you're rolling with an SR2 and level 5-6 armor.)

That's why I rediscovered the UMP-45 and am currently wrecking poo poo with it: it's controllable as all hell, and there's almost no muzzle flash, so you can just point it at someone's upper chest and let the second round headshot them. Then again, maybe it's just my usual preference for slower-firing but hard hitting weapons showing up. I swear, any game that has a full auto G3/FAL/SCAR-H, they become my best weapons.

So my queues are either 10 minutes long where I get thrown into a Rank 0-2 match and curb check everyone with my SR-2M and lose anyway because my team is loving terrible, or I get an instant queue into Rank 15 match and get passed around like the prison bitch Level 8 is a weird level...

I usually que at level 8, using SR2m and the other level 8 kit, with a secondary loadout running the Remi. It was decidedly less unpredictable before the NA server change-over, I do admit. The high level games become quite reminiscent of the OLD early game, where you started with only a pistol, and had to rely on ambushing and execution styled killing to make any headway - the SR2M can still vaporize armored folks, but you must catch them with their pants down.

Things pubbies say (well I guess they were in a clan together?): "Go play COD if you want to run and gun. This is a camping game." after the 5th time I ran up to them with an AK. MVP'd by a 100 points or so by never stopping for longer than it takes to change a mag.

The flow of this game is different, even when you're camping you need to be searching for active threats and planning your next move, so unless it's a total one way stomp there's a fair amount of unbroken action. But new players haven't figured this out, so they're easy pickings.

Yeah I was just laughing at the comment, since I spent the entire match running circles around the map to constantly outflank everyone-this was a lv8 matchmake, too.

It shoved me and my PP2000 against a team of lv0 guys, and 3 of them were AFK This game does have those "holy poo poo did I just do this" moments. Had three guys jump around a corner while I was reloading, melee'd two and ended up dodging the third long enough to reload and kill him-that's never happening again. Oh, also, bought the PP2000 and it really does have the best sights, along with ridiculously low recoil. Naturally Selected fucked around with this message at 22:06 on Apr 14, 2015 |
