I’m guessing super dead. Can’t you check playerbase on Steam? On PS4 we still have a small group playing every other day that usually fills up with more once the WW2 is done or they get sick of it for the night. I’m also around most nights for IW zombies but I aside from Frick everyone else hates it :smith:

New contracts are out. MP joint contract is 50 keys and Zombies map-specific is 90 keys. So that should be an easy 140 keys.

These weapons are now craftable
• EBR – 800 Equilibrium
• NV4 Prosperity
• KBAR-32 String Theory
• UDM: Fleet, Bonanza, Mod-3, Stalker
• R-VN: Tickler, Braincase Bruiser, Duality, Blowout
• X-Eon: EZ, MCP, Farseer, Warsight
Axe Headsman

:siren: :siren: :siren:

EDIT: One bundle and one hack just went live:



The hack should be dupe protected and it’s nice if you’ve been (un)lucky and gotten a ton of the MK 2 guns. Probably wouldn’t roll on it more than once or twice to squeeze some salvage value if you have a ton. The bundle is “good” if you’re interested in the new weapons (that’s what the feast and beast are). The epic supply drop is NOT dupe protected and could be anything, including “epic” salvage. Still, it’s basically 12 boxes with a 40 key premium for one of them to be epic.

I think I’ll personally skip the bundle and wait for a guaranteed epic weapon hack or no-dupe boxes.

Definitely wouldn't mind trying some other RVNs. I just have the base model and I rather like it.

gently caress, I meant the Raijin, I already have an RVN I like me

Both new RVN and Raijin sounds pretty good. The Trek 50 sounds loving awesome??? I have no idea how a full auto G-Rail is going to work but there’s one too. Here’s all the new variants and what they do:

G rail puncture: Full auto with trample (double kills grant bonus to payload meter) and full auto for its common trait.
VPR Viper Strike: Trample and sharpshooter (more range).
VPR Glide: Talon (kills while airborne grant a small bonus to payload meter) and stability (less recoil).
Raijin EMX Piercer: Trample and sharpshooter (more range).
Trencher Profiteer: Jackpot (10% more score or cash in zombies) and low rider (reduced hip fire spread while sliding).
Auger Enabler:Trample and readiness (faster reload while mag is low or empty, stacks with dexterity or quickies in zombies).
Atlas Airborne: Talon and stability.
Proteus Scalper: Head rush (Headshot kills grant a small bonus to payload meter) and kickback (kills with the last bullet in the mag refill the mag).
DCM 8 Dogfighter: Talon and steady (reduced hipspread).
M.2187 Alacrity: Trample and haste (slightly increased movement speed).
EMC Headrush: Headrush and stockpile (more ammo in the mag) Epic variants:
R3Kage: Mo money (more xp per kill) and haste Kbar 32 Bounty: Mo money and readiness.
Type 2 Taijitu: Mo money and sharpshooter.
RVN Quickening: dynamic Epic (Kills in alternating modes grant a lot of bonus score) and focus (less idle sway).
RAW Thug: Mo money and stability.
Trek 50 Obliterator: Overkill (shots on head or torso cause the enemy to explode with an aoe damage effect) and presence of mind (infinite hold breath duration)

The main takeaway is craftable Stalker, but hold up. This gun already exists. It's a Legendary called Duality and I have it. Did they mean to give it Mo' Money and gently caress up?

E: Oh wait, it specifies "a lot," whereas the current one... I wouldn't call 25 points a lot. But that's stilllll kinda dumb.

It’s the epic version of that and it’s 50pts instead of 25.
