Brother None posted:Divinity: OS is on its own engine which may handle file size better than Unity. That said, PoE measures at 15.5 GB on my HD, WL2 measures at 17-20GB depending on platform. It's not that different, and really has more to do with the type of assets we use and how we compress them. Game sizes can rarely be compared by comparing install size. PoE and WL2 are probably both 50-80 hour games? Really depends on playstyle Wasteland 2 is also fully 3d rendered and not in a fixed camera position. That would add a bit to the graphical asset size.

Speaking of Animal Whisperer, the animal husbandry quirk is awful. My Int 10 guy has some pretty crappy stats that I can improve with animal buddies. But they blow up, blood sausage style, after a while with that quirk. Not long enough to really take advantage of the enhanced bonuses the quirk gives you. Time to edit the XML file.

I know SMGs get a lot of hate. But, I made a Speed & Awareness character with SMG, Edged, Demolitions & Perception. I just got to level 12 and the skill and perk synergy is pretty great, especially with Tactical Positioning. The CLASSIC spread is like this: C 4 L 3 A 6 S 4 S 6 +1 (10), +1 (20, eventually) I 4 C 1 AP: 8 (9 @ lvl 20) Initiative: 14 (15 @ lvl 20) Evade: 10 (11 @ 10, 12 @ 20) Q: Twitchy Perks: Tactical Positioning, Hit the Deck, Long Arm. Next up are Self Defence & Samurai

Assault Rifles are still the best overall weapon. Even with the under pressure penalties, it's not such a big deal to move 1-2 squares away and then get a burst off anyway. The only way this is a real problem is if your Speed score is 2 or less. But, if you did that, you're dumb. Heavy Weapons are much improved; but, I still think you should be able to modify Heavy Weapons with stuff that makes jamming less of a thing since the AP cost is huge to clear them. But why the gently caress does the "Hollow Point" perk provide an Armor Piercing bonus? That's backwards as all get out.

Pvt.Scott posted:I haven't even gotten to a point where the Ranger fucks will let me in the Citadel yet, but am I the only one who buys a rad suit first thing by selling a few of those painkillers and then goes off stash hunting? I'm sure if I knew which skills to take etc I could have a full party before even touching the drat tower to find the repeaters. I only know where a few stashes are, but even a couple pieces of non-poo poo equipment make the early game far less terrible and the rad suit is only $200 base. Honestly, that's the hard way of getting upgrades. The radio tower question is really well balanced and tends to give you useful upgrades right away. Enough to get further and not struggle while moving on to the next quest or scrounging in hard areas, like Rail Nomads.

Just finished my second run of AgCenter after getting very frustrated with my character that had shotguns with the Opportunist perk, now I'm thinking of restarting again after reading those creation guides and learning that Rose will stay with me. It's much better to edit the save file (make a backup first) so that you continue playing rather than suffering from restart-itis.

Wasteland 2 is an excellent example of turn-based combat happening efficiently, if nothing else. Many turn-based games have exceedingly slow animations, followed by animation resets, that slow everything way the gently caress down. For example, run up to cover with corners. You'll back up or crouch down against that cover immediately, no slower than you would if there was no cover in that space. Then fire of a shot with a low AP weapon. You'll flip around and stick your arm out and immediately fire off a shot. No extended aiming animations.Then the animation will stop. If you can fire off another shot, you just squeeze the trigger again without having to watch the character pull out of cover again. When you end the turn, the camera peels away to the next Ranger while the finished character resets to their "in cover" stance. All of that is excellent and has been a huge problem in a lot of turn-based games. Even the last X-Com. If you want to see an absolutely horrible example of turn-based combat being slow as gently caress due to flourished animations that are only cool the first couple of times, play The Temple of Elemental Evil, where a kick takes 5 long seconds to set up and execute. That said, some non-combat based stuff is slow for no reason. Show me a skill result immediately so that I can examine the result rather than making me wait for the skill icon to fill up with light. Do the longer part of the animation after the results float over as flavor. How much time to I spend watching the shovel icon, for gently caress's sake?
