[noble marsh]

Do we get more than 250 level in Legends in DL2 ?

[tidal holly]

The virals doe

[noble marsh]

its quite small amount of level experience for legends path 😭

[tidal holly]

The glow up is insane comparing them to the old dl2 virals

[hushed cave]

no its getting removed in like a month or so

[noble marsh]

completly? Never back again ? hahahahah

[hushed cave]

temporarily

[exotic lark]

prety

[hushed cave]

to improve it according to feedback

[signal shale]

retail enhanced

[exotic lark]

no

[distant horizon]

If nvidia added LUT support to their filters it would be cool to be able to mess about with them without constantly risking breaking the game

They've added HDR to every game that runs Directx all the way back to like 9 if not earlier, and it somehow works

[hushed cave]

why is this shot using old viral models

[plain mesa]

THIS LOOKS SO GOOD WHAT

@exotic lark did you submit this as an idea on the outpost? This HAS to be part of the game by default

[exotic lark]

You mean these visuals? Doubt they'd just add random mods

[hushed cave]

looks like retail to me

[distant horizon]

What's been changed for these? Colour grading looks different obviously but the fog looks....useful rather than just broken

[hushed cave]

DL2 mfs will change the green by 1% and go "SO MUCH BETTER THAN RETAIL"

[exotic lark]

This is pre-Reloaded Edition weather and skyboxes with tweaked fog and Enhanced Tonemapping Mod and a couple color grading tweaks of mine

[plain mesa]

I meant fog and tonemapping change.

[distant horizon]

First thing I disable in any game now is chromatic aberration and motion-blur. I've yet to see any game other than Robocop where it actually makes sense and even there it's way too overblown by default

[exotic lark]

I'm just applying tweaks I made to the menu's color grading to the game for fun

[distant horizon]

It's like rendering your game with stupidly complex systems and then just messing it up on purpose so the player can't actually see what difference there is, particularly chromatic abberation. I don't know why that became so common but it's absolutely everywhere now

[exotic lark]

Yeah I tweaked the fog so it's actually there

[plain mesa]

AC Mirage went like "oh there's not enough of it let's make it appear everywhere"

[distant horizon]

I really need to properly back my saves up and poke about changing the files myself. The tick-rate for the physics is the most interesting one but I suspect it'll instantly break everything

[exotic lark]

VarFloat("f_fog_far", 0.7)
VarFloat("f_fog_height", 0.6)
VarFloat("f_fog_near", 0.5)

These are the values I used for the fog

You can apply this to every _clear.scr and _cloudy.scr to make fog prettier

[distant horizon]

Does each change require a restart? UE5 lets you modify them in real time but I don't know how DL2 deals with shader pre-compilation

[exotic lark]

Restart required

[distant horizon]

At least the music can be turned off I suppose, I couldn't take that miserable menu music anymore haha

[exotic lark]

They should seriously use more fog, because them not using the volumetric fog doesn't actually save much on performance, since it's not like the volumetric fog is disabled, it's just not visible.
And as for far fog there's objectively no reason not to use it.

[distant horizon]

I'm interested to try and find out why the inventory is the thing that gets broken so easily. The dev talk on the save-system will hopefully give some clues but if I had to guess I'd say it parses the entire story interaction so far and if things aren't where it expects you get items stuck in places they shouldn't even be able to exist

Volumetrics along with raytracing and pathtracing are massively computationally expensive so to calculate them then throw them away is madness

Especially with the raytraced flashlight, local fog could enhance that so so much but it's just not there

I think they use Aftermath for watching the render pipeline but I might be wrong. Be interesting to see how much time is spent on fog that is never seen

[exotic lark]

Funnily enough, this is one of the rare games that uses voxel-based global illumination (when not using RTX)

[distant horizon]

Man, global illumination is imo the end-goal of raytracing. Combine that with proper voxel/field-based volumetrics and it can look so incredible. Even if you aren't simulating the fields and using pre-baked vdb files to play some animations back and lower res ones for interactive it still can be so impressive. The tool for generating voxel-based animations for fire/smoke/explosion vdbs (I can't remember the name, it's pretty advanced now) blew my mind the tirst time I tried it. It seemed impossible to be generating that level of volumetric resolution in real-time at 60fps but it was just doing it no problem

[exotic lark]

Yes, because the green tint is awful

[distant horizon]

The physics system goes right down to describing the friction of each material. The voxel based system might explain how it is able to do such amazing explosions where the shock wave is clearly visible affecting the plants and other geometry (although that seems to have been toned right down since the initial release)

[exotic lark]

This screenshot perfectly encapsulates the underuse of this game's graphics.
No fog, green tint

[distant horizon]

I've not messed about with the water to see how they're doing that but I think it's a much more simple implementation. Physics gets insanely complicated once you bring in fluids, heat and pressure is one thing, particle-based dynamic meshes to represent water etc that run flip or sphd models is another entirely. Much easier to just fake it

[distant horizon]

I wonder how much of it was to account for the number of people playing it on much less powerful machines than it really needed

[exotic lark]

I think none, this is just bad decisions

[distant horizon]

Setting the LOD multiplyer up full might actually look worse due to the lack of any fog now that I think about it

[exotic lark]

It would only explain not using near fog (volumetric fog), but far fog (cheap fog)?

[distant horizon]

I may be wrong but you'd want the drop-off of LOD matched to the fog, and I can't think why they wouldn't do that

yeah good point, far fog isn't gonna be generated with full-on voxel-based volumetrics since that'd be insane. But the engine can do it, so why it's effectively disabled no matter what you set the graphics to is bizarre

[limpid rivet]

Can anyone agree that the most forgotten Easter egg is the the shocker katana

[exotic lark]

the what

[limpid rivet]

The shocker

[distant horizon]

I wonder is fog a different setting to the local volumetrics, I'm gonna have another poke through the data files and see what I can find cos it must be in there somewhere. I mean Arkham Asylum had dynamic volumetrics that worked well, we may not have deciated physX cards anymore but we don't need them given how insanely powerful GPUs are now

[merry jackal]

Yo how do I get the most parkour xp

[gilded terrace]

climb parkor at night

[hushed cave]

shocker

[gilded terrace]

do parkor challenges

[merry jackal]

I thought paraglide was good

[gilded terrace]

won't give u parkor xp

[limpid rivet]

You can only get it in old villidor at some soccer field and you have to score it 10 times and then a goon will appear and it will start dancing

[distant horizon]

and use the skills like rolling from high drops, sliding etc. They make quite a big difference to the XP granted I think

[merry jackal]

Ok

[merry jackal]

I know how to one shot a goon

Throw a grenade that does like 1000 damage straight at its feet

[distant horizon]

I haven't fully unlocked the parkour skill-tree yet so I'm still missing a few. Running through crowds and back again repeatedly could be a way of getting lots I suspect

[limpid rivet]

I've done that before

[merry jackal]

I’m survivor rank 7. Parkour 16/25 I only need 9 more levels and I can get legend

[gilded terrace]

i jsut slash twice with the bloody nexus

[merry jackal]

I saved like 300 military tech hopefully worth

[distant horizon]

Military tech is such a pain to get, they're only in airdops aren't they?

[gilded terrace]

i never understood how to do the role properly, alot of times when i attempt i just plummet to my death

[merry jackal]

There’s modders that give it out tho

[gilded terrace]

long grind after that too

[merry jackal]

I’ve seen a handful of them

[gilded terrace]

yup

[distant horizon]

I always end up falling while flashing the UV lamp on and off because it doesn't default back to the grappling hook the way I think it should

[gilded terrace]

and iam currently missing 1 to have the last upgrade for the grappling hook

for the love of god can't seem to find that last military tech

[distant horizon]

Large drops onto the padded landings from something like a sliding-kick jump are probably big XP moves. There's bound to be a specific combination that will max it out and then it's just finding somewhere with a rope-lift back up again

[gilded terrace]

doing it at night gives double ?

i believe

or 1.5 i actually don't remember

[distant horizon]

yeah, and also if you build up a chase before flying back up on the lift, and stop it ending by jumping back down fast enough (should be possible somewhere on the map I'm sure)

The volatiles are still total idiots at the minute who will happily wander out into broad daylight, I can see this being fixed so I'm making use of it for farming their mutations every place I find that I can. Easy way to complete the bounty for killing enemies at night too.

Just need to get some pistol ammo, stand in front of spikes and spawn virals so I can grapple them into the spikes to get that bounty too

[gilded terrace]

never had with volatiles coming out in the morning

[gilded terrace]

whats the bounty u need ?

the 100 spike kills one ?

[distant horizon]

Actually front of a stronghold is probably easiest place to do that, build up a big chase and just lead them all right in to the spikes. They just have to touch them slightly and bam, dead

[gilded terrace]

i got a even better solution for the bounty

[distant horizon]

yeah, it sounded difficult but then I saw what triggered it and realised it can probably be done pretty quickly in the right place

[gilded terrace]

just do the blastaway challenge over and over till u complete it

[distant horizon]

Is that a survivor mission? Or whereabouts is the trigger for it?

[gilded terrace]

no pk

its in houndfield if u gave the substation to the pk

[distant horizon]

ah, where on the map is it? Actually some of the bloody Ties stuff is probably a fast way to do it too

Dammit I think I gave it to the survivors

[gilded terrace]

well join someone who has it given to the pk

hell i would let u join on me but iam doing the epilogue

[distant horizon]

the "boss" areas could also be places to do it, just kick the virals and volatiles into them after killing the anomaly

The grapple is an easy way to send them straight into the spikes, just spawning enough enemies to do it. Maybe find somwhere with a screamer and leave him stood there (he does spawn volatiles still doesn't he?)

[gilded terrace]

well he just brings nearby volatiles to his location

never stood around them much to tell u tho

[distant horizon]

Pistol shot spawns them so maybe combine them to get lots and just stand on top of the spikes, they'll run into them themselves 🙂

The mines bounty I might combine with finishing the killing infected at night. Just buy/craft a load of them and go to a research facility during the night and get the idiot volatiles to wander right in..BAM

[gilded terrace]

oh for the mines i had a bunch of decoys to lure the zombies and lure them towards the mines

[distant horizon]

the entrance to the facilities on the ground is a very nice funnel to stop you getting swarmed (sometimes I put a mine behind me just to be safe). The decoys are useful but the "lure" that brings in volatiles seems to work very well

[gilded terrace]

i belive west of of lower dam ayre on the highway a lot of infected spawn

[distant horizon]

or actually just chuck a few mines into a store during the day

[gilded terrace]

that works too

[distant horizon]

I don't have the camolflage yet which is a shame or it'd be so much easier

[gilded terrace]

well iam going back to finishing this game so i can finally see the ending

[gilded terrace]

there is no camo perk in dl2 ?

[distant horizon]

I would love an item to mark an infected as a human and let them destroy eachother

[distant horizon]

it's an item you can use that effectively makes you invisible to the infected

[gilded terrace]

hu ?

where do i find this camouflage ?

[distant horizon]

I can't remember when you get it but it's further in the story that I am, someone else will definitely know though

[gilded terrace]

strange iam at the end and never encoutered it

[distant horizon]

Ah, quest called The Gilded Cage in Bloody Ties apparently

[gilded terrace]

oh the dlc

i still need to finish the main game 😅

iam going to go finish it now

[distant horizon]

Yeah it's one of the main items you get from it I think. I'm planning on doing it soon rather than waiting for the main story end

Killing enemies at night it could easily have completed, but it has to be during a chase which makes the DLC events not quite work

I've still not seen a volatile hive either, I only need to kill one so if I can find one and just wander in with my most overpowered weapons it should be easy enough

Ah, it's more likely when you see a tyrant. They seem even more stupid than the normal volatiles

[gilded terrace]

they normally nest high or in dark zones

[gilded terrace]

was bout to say wrong chat lmao

[hushed cave]

tower raid is tuf only using the stuff the tower gives you

[blissful ridge]

Aiden traveled to another dimension confirmed

[distant horizon]

Verifying files for a game with Steam doesn't seem to check files that are not there as part of the game's normal installation. That's helpful..

Even after a reinstall the DL2 folder still had the DLL files to use AMD's frame generation along with DLSS

[latent mortar]

Great elemental asylum on the third floor-

[icy owl]

hey!

[silver osprey]

sup

[distant horizon]

There's physics specs for a buggy and truck in the data files, I wonder is that an indication of what they might be working on

[gilded terrace]

YUP

atleast the buggy

[distant horizon]

This is from nvidia's original RT support video, I'd be interested to run a difference check between the settings in the object files between then and now (for those that are in both) to see exactly what has been changed

[shell geyser]

Delete this, mods are gonna kill you

[distant horizon]

A custom map with just examples of each effect to see how it changes based on the settings in the files would probably be easiest. The voxel definition is 128x128x64 which sounds about right for real-time smoke simulation that can be affected by wind etc. It sounds low resolution but upscaling voxel/field simulations is surprisingly low cost for how well it works which I'd guess is what they're doing

A flamethrower weapon would be cool, have a conical spawner on the end of the weapon that extends a long properly simulated fire stream. Hell Divers 2 has it but that's Autodesk's weird engine, it supports local weather affecting the flamethrower and other weapons since it's mostly totally deterministic. It also supports a massive number of enemy AI agents, looks like a nightmare to actually code for though

[hushed jasper]

apparently the repair option in the repair weapons tab of the craftmaster is gone now?

[gilded terrace]

stil there

[hushed jasper]

i cant repair any of my weapons

i tried restarting the game but it didnt work

[gilded terrace]

can't tell u man sorry

[hushed jasper]

its alr

not like you could do anything about it

[shell geyser]

Ever since I got on yesterday tower raid completely disappeared

[hushed jasper]

im not sure but before doing the tower raid i could repair my stuff but now i cant
perhaps its because of the raid?

[blissful ridge]

Tried the raid again and first one good but then 2nd raid got bugged lol

[shell geyser]

Had to restart the game like 8 times but the mission is back now

[gilded terrace]

godamn

well finally finished the game

[blissful ridge]

Noice

[gilded terrace]

ill start helpin others tmr

[silver osprey]

nice

[wintry crater]

is Lenovo g24-20 165hz any good? or brand

[mortal fulcrum]

Not sure, never heard of it.

If you're planning to get a gaming monitor. I suggest you to get an Asus monitor. Asus gaming monitor won't hurt and get a warranty. Since, monitors can be faulty at times because of deliveries and such.

[wary bronze]

Well I bought this a week ago and its super powerfull. U can check this if u want

All graphics max and dlss on = 110 fps-no fps drop

dl2

[mystic wedge]

thats actually impressive cause this game dosent run all that well xD

[lofty cape]

Awesome sauce moment

Loot isn't showing up whenever I pick it up so I can't even see what I'm getting

[rancid hill]

Hey, Techland, I'm not trying to make it sound like I'm mad, but what is with your anti-cheats? I was just trying to get my friend some good weapons, since he isnt that good on computer, and now we couldnt play because of your warning. I gave him some good weapons, thats it. But he threw away the weapons and that probably fixed it, but can you like, not have that?

[digital egret]

I finished the main story, have not started a NEW GAME +, I don't see any way to do the Bloody Ties quest so I can get the Military Machete. Am I missing something?

[rancid hill]

No, you usually need NG+, thats how I got it.

[digital egret]

Thanks EpicCarrot

[rancid hill]

No problemo!

[digital egret]

After I start NG+, what do I need to do?

[ripe galleon]

progress in the story until u unlock the bloody ties quest

[haughty hearth]

anyone else notice how they put less effort in the weather in this game

like in dying light one it's actually realistic, where the sun and moon move but in dl2 its just a cycle of like 10 slideshow pictures?

oh and hey if your weapons get broken or damaged they dont look like it at all, unlike dying light one where they actually show damage and repair on weapons

[dark cloud]

Hey I just joined I’m having a problem the out of your league quest isn’t showing up I did all the prequriements Im on Xbox btw

[ripe galleon]

what quest is that again?

[dark cloud]

It involves the oldest boy that tried to kill that dog

I don’t know much details I don’t want spoilers

[ripe galleon]

its a side quest tho why do you need it

[plain mesa]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amPz4FCHrQ4

[dark cloud]

100% completion

[plain mesa]

This looks hella good wtf

[ripe galleon]

have u done the true friends quest?

[dark cloud]

Yes and I gave the water tower to the survivors and I haven’t progressed after that

[ripe galleon]

is your bazaar still active or destroyed

[dark cloud]

It shuts itself out if you do the revolution quest I haven’t done it yet

[ripe galleon]

message a dev or rollback idrk

[past stratus]

So I killed the demolisher on the roof in "Lost Light" too fast now I can't progress

Game hasn't registered the shotgun blast that destroyed it

[ripe galleon]

try to progress further into the story see if thatr changes anytyhing

[ripe galleon]

how does one kill it too fast

[dark cloud]

Use the Dark Sickle Redux

[past stratus]

Shotgun

[dark cloud]

That will work

[past stratus]

I walked away and it respawned and I killed it again just now

Still won't register

Guess killing it with guns breaks it

[ripe galleon]

have u relaunched ur game?

[latent mortar]

Lost Light??

[haughty hearth]

anyone else notice how they put less effort in the weather in this game
like in dying light one it's actually realistic, where the sun and moon move but in dl2 its just a cycle of like 10 slideshow pictures?
oh and hey if your weapons get broken or damaged they dont look like it at all, unlike dying light one where they actually show damage and repair on weapons

[past stratus]

No it just happened.

[haughty hearth]

does that seem weird to anyone

[dark cloud]

It was storming in my playthrough

[past stratus]

You can certainly see damage on your weapon, check your graphics perhaps?

[haughty hearth]

im running max graphics everything

[ripe galleon]

try relaunching, and how do you have guns despite being that far into the story

[past stratus]

New Game+

[latent mortar]

Beautiful sunsets in villedor especially with the darker nights grading

[ripe galleon]

ic

[haughty hearth]

damage definitely isnt shown significantly

[past stratus]

Also you can get guns pretty quickly once you unlock the Fish Eye

[haughty hearth]

yeah weather happens randomly i mean the skybox

[ripe galleon]

yeah i just forgot about ng+

[dark cloud]

I’m kinda disappointed that guns were added

[ripe galleon]

guns are fire wym

[dark cloud]

I like the lore that all ammunition was spent and no factories exist so we live in a modern medieval times

[ripe galleon]

yeah true but u dont have to use the guns

[dark cloud]

Then it means that guns are going to be in the 3rd entry and we got to deal with enemies that use them

[ripe galleon]

dlc 2

thats all ima say

[past stratus]

Well the lore was based on a lie

[latent mortar]

And the hours are still going

[plain mesa]

Happy to see you're enjoying it!

Are you on PS5? @latent mortar

[latent mortar]

PS4

[exotic lark]

Nah what the fuck I thought you were showcasing your cool kill in the first few seconds

what the fuck

[plain mesa]

Oh damn, your hours are probably gonna get even bigger once you upgrade

[dark cloud]

Oh no I’m glad how they put guns in the game without breaking the lore completely but still a post apocalyptic that civilization is in a modern Middle Ages because factory workers and air travel doesn’t exist anymore it’s kinda got a certain charm

[plain mesa]

Honestly the game doesn't really feel like modern middle ages at all, I just can't see it with the current visuals of the game, the story is also all over the place, the first part was great, but goes south as soon as we step into central loop

[dark cloud]

What everyone is using spears bows and arrows, the peace keepers have Balistas, spike traps and bells are used as alarms

[dark cloud]

Plus the bandit camps have a castle vibe

[digital egret]

Great, just wondering why do you think I never had a chance to do the quest on the first gameplay? Was it because of a decision I made to go a certain route/direction.

[ripe galleon]

u never got the quest on your first playthrough?

[indigo hemlock]

I want custom difficulty so bad because I love the combat challenge of Nightmare but I also like having my HUD fully enabled

[digital egret]

No

[indigo hemlock]

And chase level 5 is locked to Nightmare

[ripe galleon]

did u own the dlc during ur first playthrough?

[digital egret]

I think you hit the nail in the head, I'm gonna say no, I DL it after I beat the game. What do you recommend? And how can I verify I have actually DL it, I'm on PS5?

[dull heath]

Aiden and hakon if techland locked in

[ripe galleon]

tbh i dont really know since i dont play on ps5, can you launch the game from the dlc itself or nah

[digital egret]

Don't know, I will try that. Thanks

[burnt tusk]

Modern dark ages is fucked up yes

Techland is so embarrassed of the fuck up they removed the description of it 1 year after the game launch lmfao

Which is kinda depressing

[burnt tusk]

You and I buddy

I love using the shotgun in mid air

Funny how the ragdolls flop around after you mid shoot them in the air esp goons/demolishers

That would be a cool situation but I feel like that would take so much to do

Maybe that's why it was delayed

Those volatiles know how to aim it’s impressive and scary

[past stratus]

Yeah

[wanton junco]

They're not as worse than Volatiles on DL1, not only do they have god tier aim but they spam their toxic spits.

[gilded terrace]

Never had issues with the spit apart from ground combat

Mostly flew high to avoid triggering any volatiles

[wanton junco]

They only really spit when they can't reach you, which is pretty much climbing, grapple hooking e.t.c

[latent mortar]

There’s always that one volatile that takes patrols on the tall ass buildings rooftops

Okay that was strange

[gilded terrace]

True

You just proved him correct.

[gilded terrace]

Yep should be

[signal shale]

what

is said that the dlc ain't avaiable so we removed some items from that

or smth like that

maybe a bug

Best decision of my life

[dusky jungle]

When FSR 3?

Dying light 2 is even listed on the official AMD site in the fsr 3 category and it's been there for probably half a year, but they never added it to the game

[late widget]

It's the same with other games that are on that list.

Tower raid is fun.

[gilded terrace]

Red dead 2

[late widget]

This is what someone wrote when I left a clan 😀

[blissful ridge]

O

[hollow bay]

youre jokin

[gilded terrace]

What

[hollow bay]

arent you saying rdr2?

[blissful ridge]

Hm

[gilded terrace]

Ye ?

[hollow bay]

its 120GB

nah im gonna play tboi

[gilded terrace]

Ok.

Well what type of games are you into ?

[hollow bay]

... they going to nerf Anubix crossbow now? I bought it for looks, but now I can't use other crossbows... its artifact, but does more damage and holds 7 bolts per mag

[dusky jungle]

Even HELLRAID is more interesting than Tower Raid

[tacit basalt]

tower raid is pretty cool icl

[gilded terrace]

Also move it to #⭐︱general

[hollow bay]

I thought they reduced the clip size of PK crossbow to even them out lol... this anubis xbows a bit OP

I mean, they're OP in general, but 7 bolts and extra damage!

[gilded terrace]

Never gotten a chance to use a crossbow

Kinda wish the legends chests dropped one.

[hollow bay]

... what you mean, never got a chance, Don.K

you get a PK crossbow siding with them

and you can get the First Pilgrim Crossbow from the Outpost

and there's a Crossbow from the Huntress

[gilded terrace]

Ehhh didn't completely side with them

Sided with them till they gave those siege arrow shooters and then kept siding with the survivors.

[gilded terrace]

I still need to do that part and haven't attempted any hunts yet.

Most likely will try it in co-op with someone else.

[gilded terrace]

Oh yeh

[hollow bay]

@dcashd25

[gilded terrace]

Hakons's is bundle ?

[blissful ridge]

Mhm

Skin bundle

[hollow bay]

Naw, that was for a damage comparison

[gilded terrace]

Ahh yes I was planning on getting the outfit before going for anything else.

[hollow bay]

the PK/First Pilgrim and Hakon crossbows all have same damage

[gilded terrace]

I see

[hollow bay]

PK you get for giving the city facilities to PK, and you get to keep it in NG+

honestly, Pilgrims is the easiest to get of this list...

https://pilgrimoutpost.techlandgg.com/armory link your Techland account to the outpost here

guys survivors or pks?

and from there, you get a few bounties

[blissful ridge]

Your choice

Mines was survivors

[hollow bay]

I go PK once and then Survivors

just a question

it's worth it to do NG+

[gilded terrace]

Ye have it linked already completed all bounties, waiting on the next batch.

[hollow bay]

so, you can just grab the crossbow from the armory lol

can i start back on the X13 mission

[gilded terrace]

Will do just saving up for something more interesting

[gilded terrace]

Ye once u compete x13 u go back to the save right before u start the mission

[late widget]

Depends on playstyle PK gives traps, survivors gives parkour stuff

[gilded terrace]

Make sure I have all the weapons u repaired tho

[hollow bay]

where is the save

[hollow bay]

even with guns, the crossbows are still stronger

[gilded terrace]

I was fuckin idiot and forgot to repair my machete and it was kinda hell

[gilded terrace]

Mhm

[hollow bay]

which makes sense, as a bolt or arrow has a great deal more mass... (a crossbow can go through several sandbags, a bullet can't)

Physics based on the Mass part of E=MC^2

[gilded terrace]

Man I wished they showed what are the stats on the pilgrim armory

[hollow bay]

i didnt save anything i completed the game without closing

[blissful ridge]

It auto saves

[hollow bay]

where is the save then

[blissful ridge]

I dunno

[hollow bay]

that makes sense

[hollow bay]

at lvl 9 it has 954 damage and 3 bolts, can fire single shot or all 3 in burstfire

others have 4 bolts, but cannot do a burstfire... Anubix has 7 bolts and more damage

[gilded terrace]

Depends on the bullet caliber and tip and how close the bullet was shot from.

[swift kraken]

for me is until 15

[hollow bay]

2 sandbags will stop a .50 cal at 50 yards... it'll be in the 2nd sandbag mushroomed out.

the bolt or arrow passes clean through

when bullets hit anything, they either mushroom out or keyhole, and THIS prevents them from making it through the sand

[gilded terrace]

Yep I agree

[hollow bay]

but a bolt or crossbow has alot of mass... it's like stopping a slow moving train xs speeding sports car... a lambo has about the same impact force at 150 as a train engine (no cars) at 3mph... but one will stop and the other won't if it hits a brick wall

not easy to stop a train lol

[gilded terrace]

Where did u get the anibux crossbow from ?

[hollow bay]

DLC

[gilded terrace]

Blood ties ?

[hollow bay]

im in love... bought it for looks, but its so strong

[gilded terrace]

Oh bundle

[hollow bay]

in game store

[gilded terrace]

The Pharo one ?

[hollow bay]

Annibis is NOT the phaoroh, he is the judge of souls, gatekeeper to the underworld

[gilded terrace]

Alr mb the ancient Egyptian bundle then

[hollow bay]

Phoarohs are connected to Horus, son of Ra... Annubis is OLDER than Ra

weighs your soul against a feather of Maat... if your soul is heavier, you are like Veronica in Willie Wonka...

[outer flower]

i will not lie tower raid is pretty meh

[hollow bay]

have you tried the new crossbow ptak?

and clip size of 7

[outer flower]

nah i dont have it

i did tower raid twice since update and then didnt touch anything

[hollow bay]

clip size 7 ^_^

only Hunters Crossbow is stronger, but it needs special bolts

and at 1154, it's not much stronger lol

[outer flower]

final room is really underwhelming and just combat rooms

[hollow bay]

no trap rooms with parkour?

[signal shale]

not a single one

[hollow bay]

Bloody Ties was awesome

sadly, bloody ties is underwhelming regarding its loot

[outer flower]

tower raid is aswell

its just pilgrim chest loot

[dusky jungle]

10$

[paper harbor]

Will they add renegades to tower raid

[outer flower]

no exclusive stuff thats more from jai tho

[burnt tusk]

Depends

[outer flower]

idk if they should do that but they should add parkour rooms

[hollow bay]

well, yeah, its IN THE STORE... the DLC Bundles aren't free...

[paper harbor]

Most definitely

[burnt tusk]

The bigger question is why going up tower is through an elevator and not parkouring

[hollow bay]

you pay for the cosmetics and the other stuff it comes with... this ones got an OP crossbow and a stronger shield too

[burnt tusk]

The entire premise of the game is climbing UP stuff idk why they dont do that

[outer flower]

smart solution

[hollow bay]

(yes, the shield IS stronger, but you are stuck with a poison mod on it)

[outer flower]

make us climb certain paths after each floor

exclusive loot would be peak too but not needed

[burnt tusk]

Nah

it probably does

Tho I would say the priority should be making the experience fun over another grindfest

[hollow bay]

guys im gonna rollback my completed file for 2 times

[outer flower]

also one thing is kinda eh
people can prolly join with like the doom shotgun or military machete and easily solo

[outer flower]

exactly

more puzzles and parkour rooms

[burnt tusk]

Right now it feels like extended jai quest

[burnt tusk]

One thing I would want is different floor design have their own unique gimmick

so the floor design isnt just there for show

Like have each floor have their own hazard and traps and whatnot

[outer flower]

oh yea

i noticed the models match the environment pretty well

[burnt tusk]

Its hald decent design ig

Nothing to note of but one of the better ones

[blissful ridge]

Got a demolisher boss lol

And then we got stuck in the elevator

[hollow bay]

guys i think im stuck on a loop

If anyone is curious about scarab for comparison

[burnt tusk]

They really need to buff shields

[hollow bay]

Carnage Manica is better, I think

[blissful ridge]

I miss chicken on a stick lol

[hollow bay]

less damage (damage is prettymuch non existant anyways) and more customizable, 3 attacks instead of one

[burnt tusk]

Techland could probably put a damage cap or ban those items from being used in tower raid

the issue is idk if it would be a good idea

On one hand it does feel like limitng people's option

[hollow bay]

guys im stuck on a loop

[burnt tusk]

On the other , it might improve some gameplay

[hollow bay]

i wanna do rollback but im stuck on 16h 50m 11s

[tight wyvern]

Death loop or?

Like what happened

[hollow bay]

like rollback loop

[tight wyvern]

Rollback loop? That's a new one

[hollow bay]

im stuck on 16h 50m 11s

[tight wyvern]

And what like you can't make any progress in game?

[hollow bay]

i can

i wanna rollback to the x13

[tight wyvern]

Oh? Why exactly?

[hollow bay]

you know

[outer flower]

for elite maybe?

[hollow bay]

i wanna save lawan

[tight wyvern]

Just do ng+?

[hollow bay]

but im gonna do all of it again

[tight wyvern]

I don't think you can roll back to right before the final

It's either ng+ or nothing

[hollow bay]

oh i need to do ng+ then

[tight wyvern]

Yeah

[hollow bay]

alr

[burnt tusk]

seems fair enough

[hollow bay]

Lastly, sword glows day and night, but underperforms... has a toxic power mod only, it only has looks

i did ng+

[burnt tusk]

its a 10 dollar bundle either way

Dont think any op gear is worth that amount

[hollow bay]

Unfortunately games pausing whenever I take the screenshot, so not the clearest picture

[tight wyvern]

Photo mode?

[hollow bay]

THE only reason to buy are cosmetics and the crossbow

btw how can i see the amount of story completed?

[blissful ridge]

Noice

[tight wyvern]

I don't think you can

[hollow bay]

Its a VERY nice crossbow with 7 bolts!

[noble marsh]

When I finish Veronica mission the last one can I still get back to some sidejobs missions after that ? Now I am in the complex when main character was there with sister..... .

[tight wyvern]

1k base dmg 👀

[hollow bay]

About 15% more damage AND 7 bolts is awesome

Only the legendary hunters crossbow hits harder, but it can only use hollow bolts

(And this things got 7 bolts)

[tight wyvern]

That's actually pretty good

[hollow bay]

Yeah, I bought it for looks. Didnt think it would be so much better

Im more of a pay to look cool type of guy and less pay to win, so when I get somethong that does BOTH im pretty happy

[tight wyvern]

Real but I mostly buy for the transmog gear

[hollow bay]

Skoll is still my favorite weapon (I farmed 2 exotics last xmas for it) because it looks awesome and I can throw it

Transmog gear???

Oh, Cosmetic... Why you young folk gotta make up new words for everything?

[tight wyvern]

That's what it's called

I didn't make up the name That's the gamer term

[little raft]

Yeah BOOMER

sorry please don’t hurt me

[blissful ridge]

I call them bombers still

[tight wyvern]

💀

[little raft]

Bomber?

[blissful ridge]

Ye

[little raft]

What

[blissful ridge]

Howlers i call them either snitch or screamers

[little raft]

We’re not talking about the infected…

[hollow bay]

https://tenor.com/view/kaboom-tony-stark-iron-man-explosion-gif-15636965

[blissful ridge]

Ik

[hollow bay]

I don't mind... My generation is VERY well known for blowing stuff up

[little raft]

ermmm

What the sigma

Anyways should I get the bundle then dakron

[hollow bay]

Up to you, most of its JUST cosmetics... the shield and sword underperform

[tight wyvern]

Idk if it's worth that price tbh

Even if it has all those items

[hollow bay]

but that crossbow LOOKS good, and has 15% more firepower and 7 bolts per clip

[little raft]

How fast does it actually kill

[hollow bay]

its stronger than the PK crossbow

[tight wyvern]

Yeah the crossbow is decent

But that alone for me isn't worth the entire bundle

Idk if I'm being picky but this feels too expensive

[little raft]

https://tenor.com/view/anubis-anpu-anúbis-dios-anubis-kemetism-gif-26279779

[little raft]

But it’s cool

[little raft]

PS5?

[hollow bay]

Ya

[little raft]

Hold share it should do a normal screenshot

[hollow bay]

Omg TY!

[little raft]

👍

[hollow bay]

That was driving me nuts

[little raft]

That is a very cool crossbow

[little raft]

Yeah took me a while to figure it out when I got my ps5

[hollow bay]

Here, easier to see the 7 bolts

[blissful ridge]

I love how the fish canteen has kites in the sky

[hollow bay]

And then theres THIS

Looking down crosshairs

[blissful ridge]

Noice

[hollow bay]

Bought it for looks, but its more powerful than all but the Huntresses Hollow ammo crossbow, and has more ammo

So its overall dps is probably higher than the huntress

Cause 7 Bolts... and if you picked up Hakon, you can make that 7 Fire Bolts

https://tenor.com/view/danmachis4-firebolt-de-d-spell-warlock-gif-27245225

(GIF of a different kind of firebolt, but it feels like you throwing magic around)

[outer flower]

whoever this is this would be peak

[hollow bay]

get a chase section where you gotta run from an unkillable pursuer like the chase scene in the story... Make em look like Revanants on steroids... Omega Volatiles

If it catches you, your dead

THEN at the end it comes out, and NOW it can be fought

[outer flower]

a chase scene wouldve been peak for the raid

[hollow bay]

So you gotta contend with it, and adds...

[outer flower]

i was really surprised to not see any new enemy

[hollow bay]

Then before its dead, it escapes, you mop up the adds and be like "what was that thing"

[outer flower]

i think that would be cool

[hollow bay]

This opens up for more content later on

[outer flower]

an enemy that doesnt kill you but just fucks off after you prove that you can endure it

[tight wyvern]

Bolter?

[outer flower]

not like a bolter

[hollow bay]

Naw, you cant fight it yourself... you gotta use environmental stuffs to fight it

[outer flower]

but an enemy that actually fights you

[hollow bay]

Then it leaves to lick its wounds

[tight wyvern]

Ah

[hollow bay]

So like dropping steel beams on it, that kind of thing

[tight wyvern]

Didn't see the fight part

Just the part about zombie that fears you

[hollow bay]

Your weapons would be too weak to hurt it, thats why you ran to the room you fought it in

[outer flower]

like maybe some enemy where you need to crack open certain points of their skin which would be highlighted by yellow THV

could play around with this
make each skin crack a new phase

its similar to the heartstone from deep rock in my mind

and as soon as you manage to break all skin points it would just escape and let you loot the final room of the raid
but it would NOT die.

[hollow bay]

Yeah

[outer flower]

maybe even come back stronger for elite mode

[hollow bay]

Because it escaping makes you dread its return 👍

[outer flower]

would be cool

maybe a revenant variant?

[hollow bay]

And then we gotta formulate a way to actually beat it in another quest later on, with a different approach to each agent... the return raid would be to hunt the monster down... either huntress setting up balistaes in a room... the gun guy with cannons, or the other guy with traps...

[outer flower]

real

[hollow bay]

Each approach requires a certain rank with that agent, and has special setup missions ..

[outer flower]

also wasnt the next agent supposed to be 2h focused

tf happened to that dude

[hollow bay]

then it ties it into the agents, and each agent will have a different reward for the bosses head

[wintry coyote]

Sir, is thy new bundle worth the purchase?

[hollow bay]

Sword looks cool, but is underwhelming. Shields stronger than the other, but only has ONE ability. And its poison as a preset.
Both sub par...

But the Crossbow is both stunningly beautiful AND powerful, about 15% stronger than the PK/Pilgrim/Hakon And has 7 BOLTS!!!

[main kettle]

What bout huntress cross?

[hollow bay]

So the crossbows defunitely top tier right now. Otherwise its cosmetics

[wintry coyote]

I purchase, bundle look sick

[hollow bay]

Does 54 more damage, but only uses hollow bolts... Anubiss crossbow can use fire bolts if you got Hakon, abd the rest if your bolts too

[main kettle]

Nice

[wintry coyote]

I purchase next bundle tomorrow, the above the law bundle which gives me beer

[hollow bay]

Also annubis has 7 BOLTS

[main kettle]

Per mag nice

[hollow bay]

Thats pretty insane on its own

Paired with hakon bundles fire bolts, its damage per bolt is stronger than huntress

[gaunt walrus]

10 bucks for that new bundle is kinda crazy ngl

[main kettle]

You get alot of things

[gaunt walrus]

wasnt the following for dl1 like 15 bucks?

[main kettle]

Its free now

[gaunt walrus]

i got a whole game expansion for 15 bucks while for 10 i will get like 5 cosmetics

well to each their own i guess

[main kettle]

When did u buy it

[plucky haven]

Is the tower raid fun?

[gaunt walrus]

when it came out

[main kettle]

Yes

[hollow bay]

... DL1 bundles were also around $5 per bundle...

[gaunt walrus]

i believe the following was 15 bucks?

yeah u got ur value for 5 bucks

the outfits had special abilities remember?

[plucky haven]

I did the first floor then got bored, and realized I couldn't save the game after quitting then rejoining later after I wasn't busy anymore, then I was upset :/

[main kettle]

Bruh

[hollow bay]

But that was years ago... economy has changed, your dollars value has gone down

[plucky haven]

Arr the higher floors full of cool loot?

And fun fights/parkour?

[main kettle]

Exactly

[gaunt walrus]

i dont use dollars im not american

[plucky haven]

Good loot, or cool loot

[hollow bay]

Have you not noticed McDonalds prices went up too? And pizza?

[plucky haven]

Many don't

[main kettle]

Both. Weapons, crafting materials. Ammo

[plucky haven]

FOR REALLLLLLL

[gaunt walrus]

we dont even have mcdonalds in my city bro im not american theres not a fast food place around every corner i make my food

[burnt tusk]

If you want a more recent comparison, bloody ties used to cost 10$

[plucky haven]

Ammo is good ig, I don't need materials I'm stocked tf up, but cool weapons sound interesting l

What they got? Minus Jai's shit

[gaunt walrus]

and it was a whole story dlc no?

[main kettle]

The following wad relesed in 2015

[hollow bay]

.. inflation isnt just a dollar thing, all money suffers from the creation of more bills/coins

[gaunt walrus]

with many outfits weapons n stuff

[burnt tusk]

Yes

[plucky haven]

A shitty one

[main kettle]

Its 2024 now

[burnt tusk]

so you compare bloody tie's content to the content of the bundle

[gaunt walrus]

is bro a year into the future?

[burnt tusk]

and then you realised how bad of a deal it is

[plucky haven]

The tournament was barely used. It's the funnest part tho tbh

[gaunt walrus]

apparently

the tournament was fire

[burnt tusk]

[burnt tusk]

it's......fine

[plucky haven]

Story and characters were ass

[gaunt walrus]

i personally had a blast with bloody ties excepting the story bro ciro was so mid

[burnt tusk]

But it at least live up to its name

[main kettle]

Like i said. The following was relesed 2015. The stuff were cheeper

[plucky haven]

Mhm

The mechanics for it were soooo unpolished

[hollow bay]

The bundle in DL1 for the wind crossbow was $10 so its not out of Pricerange

[plucky haven]

Techland is the king of companies when it comes to unpolished releases

No offense

Still love their games

[gaunt walrus]

have to agree

[main kettle]

Cod mw3

[burnt tusk]

and 10$ is still 10$

[hollow bay]

Was a cool spear and Lu Bu outfit with it too

[plucky haven]

Eh

Most cod's are pretty polished on release cuz they are just copy and paste relatively

[main kettle]

Hope bo6 is good

[plucky haven]

MAN I MISS ADVANCED WARFARE

[hollow bay]

Nope, Ubisoft stole that crown... skull n bones lol

[plucky haven]

It looks good

[gaunt walrus]

can i complain about prices if my dumbass bought the walking dead bundle all for lucille and the outfit bro

[plucky haven]

It didn't even release tho

[gaunt walrus]

and for the katana as it was clean as hell

[burnt tusk]

You could

As long as you acknowledge its not worth the price

[gaunt walrus]

it lowkey wasnt

[plucky haven]

Shit was so fun man

[hollow bay]

Took them 4 months to get out the bugs in Skull and Bones Main Story Questline lol

[burnt tusk]

I mean youtubers buy and showcase shit all the time , their still credible for criticism

[hollow bay]

Skull and bones has been out for 5 months

[plucky haven]

It never fully released tho, at least they had the humility and humbleness to admit it wasn't finished and shut down the game

[gaunt walrus]

they did?

[noble marsh]

Can I still finished side Jobs after Veronica mission?

[hollow bay]

Its not shut down lol

[plucky haven]

Do u guys not remember when the pre-order date was moved because it wasn't finished?

[hollow bay]

That games still chugging along

[gaunt walrus]

ubisoft are such a joke bro (i still bought all of the assassins creed games)

[plucky haven]

And early access players played it

And then the game got shut down cuz it was ass

Did they re-release it since?

[hollow bay]

My point is, when it comes to unfinished releases, Ubisoft took out even cyberpunk

[gaunt walrus]

did they give your money back

[plucky haven]

I stopped committing to assassin's creed after back flag

[plucky haven]

Nope

[gaunt walrus]

i played all of em

[hollow bay]

Dont even remember who made cyberpunk lol.. never played it

[plucky haven]

I've played all of em except mirage

Didn't look good so I didn't buy

[gaunt walrus]

EA...? i really have no idea

[plucky haven]

The cyberpunk game is AMAZING now it's insane how much they improved the game

[gaunt walrus]

mirage looked fun and then i got in open combat

[plucky haven]

But still can't undo the damage they've done

So I won't give em my money

Same with cod

[hollow bay]

Star wars ones not going to be ready on time either, but they cant delay the release cause of a contract

[plucky haven]

Glad bo6 is free on gamepass

[main kettle]

Thats wierd

[hollow bay]

That comes out in a couple months

[plucky haven]

They have like 6 star wars games In dev rn, they are NEVER releaseeing istg

The one eith the great trailers

[plucky haven]

Why don't they understand that fans would love an RPG based in the old republic with actually good polished graphics and fighting mechanics

[plucky haven]

Yeah no people are hating on it so hard

🤣🤣

[hollow bay]

Anyways... point is, Techland does a very good job, compared to a bunch of bigger companies

[main kettle]

Right

[hollow bay]

Thsts the point I was making

[plucky haven]

I would love it if they would just focus on actually star wars values, like lifhtsaber FORMS 1-7, character creation, etc..

[plucky haven]

No

[hollow bay]

Point made, back to DL2 topic

[gaunt walrus]

gang we gotta lock in back to dl2

[river quail]

general is a mess rn

[plucky haven]

Settling for mediocre will only get u mediocre, techland is good at listening to their fans and updating the game in such

[gaunt walrus]

is it?

[river quail]

so am a be here

so wsg everyone

[gaunt walrus]

yeah its ass

[plucky haven]

So that's why the community helps techland identifit the community

[gaunt walrus]

the images i scrolled past

[hollow bay]

hey, Those are DL2 images
.. of a beautiful weapon

[main kettle]

It wouldnt be mediocre if there werent people who make false stories about others

[plucky haven]

What happened?

[hollow bay]

Was putting those screenshots in for people consideribg the purchase, with details, so they can make an informed decisipn

[main kettle]

Writer got fired for false SA

[plucky haven]

SA?

[main kettle]

At the time, it was unknown

[plucky haven]

in my world SA means resturaunt buser lol

[main kettle]

S****l assult

[plucky haven]

Oh

[hollow bay]

Only SA im familiar with were the brown coats of ww2

[plucky haven]

Idk what that has to do with anything we were talking bout tbh

[main kettle]

The game was mediocre due to the story.

They had to change it

[plucky haven]

Like we were just saying that the reason techland does good even tho they have crappy releases is because they listen to the community and we don't settle for mediocre so they know what's up. And they fix it

[hollow bay]

Uuum, Vojvoda, I dont think you know what your talking about either...

[gilded terrace]

Do u think data miners can uncover something related to the original dying light 2 in the game files

[gilded terrace]

Ye I agree

[hollow bay]

The original being DL1?

[gilded terrace]

Noo the e3 dl 2

[hollow bay]

Cause DL2 is basicallt a sequal

[gilded terrace]

I doubt tho .

[main kettle]

You know that chris avellone was supposed to be the dl2 writer?

[gilded terrace]

The only e3 thing ik that was usable was lawan's face model,

[hollow bay]

I think thats a myth... other than some character changes to make the characters look like their voice actors, theres not much to be found

[gilded terrace]

I mean we never know unless someone starts diving

[main kettle]

He was the writer and deisgner for fallout new vegas

[hollow bay]

Evrn if he was "Supposed to be" if he got fired, techland can hire domeone rlse to finnish it

[main kettle]

They srapped 90% of his work

[hollow bay]

The writer doesnt own jack diddly, this is a game, not a book

[gilded terrace]

Eventually a couple of years down the line when they gon release dl 3 or something maybe someone might unearth something of it.

[main kettle]

Bruh

Are you fr or what

[hollow bay]

Techlabd owns everything in DL1 and 2... the story is 100% intended to take place after harran

[main kettle]

My guy

[signal shale]

story was completely rewrote after 2020

[hollow bay]

They scrapped parts of some guys story, big whoop... they kept the important 10%

[gilded terrace]

Have techland made efforts to bring him back or is that chapter closed ?

[main kettle]

Exactly

[hollow bay]

Who cares?

[main kettle]

Most of people

[signal shale]

So Elyseum isnt important huh?

[hollow bay]

There is only ONE DL2... this one

[main kettle]

We missed out on elyseum. Actual choice system

[main kettle]

Smh

[signal shale]

It was meant to be bigger than Old Villedor

[gilded terrace]

I kinda do man, they did him real dirty, robbed us of a good story and also ruined his career.

[main kettle]

Thankfully, people are making a community map for it

[hollow bay]

Thats like saying Han Solo took the money on hoth and left... never to be seen again Original scripts dont matter

[signal shale]

Modders are saving the game yea

[hollow bay]

Or that Darth Vader was a minor character

[main kettle]

Agree. But this is the world we live in. People making random stories to ruin other people for their hard work

[hollow bay]

Grand Moff Tarkin was the original bbeg, not palpatine or vader

But thats not how it ends

[main kettle]

Who said they dont matter?

[hollow bay]

Scripts get scrapped because they suck... be happy they got scrapped

[main kettle]

Smh dude smh

[gilded terrace]

But this one looked to be much better than the one we got dude.

[hollow bay]

Only know the bit about Vader because Lucas shocked the hell out of everyone, and filmed both scripts

[gilded terrace]

That's why we care

[main kettle]

If your gonna yap bout something diffrent #⭐︱general

[hollow bay]

Looked better how... he writes a script... the game is maybe 2% script

[gilded terrace]

Ok let's keep it friendly here.

[gaunt walrus]

that wasnt hostile at all

[main kettle]

Rules are rules

[gaunt walrus]

tbh

[main kettle]

Dont want john to come

[gaunt walrus]

[hollow bay]

I was on topic.. making a point that scripts change, sometimes they do a complete 180... but thats for the better

[main kettle]

Dl2 topic. You just talked bout star wars scripts and what not

[gilded terrace]

We were supposed to have access to a whole new area, and choice did mean something, man people had hopes to play as renegades and most important peace keepers had shields, we missed out on shields. 😩

[hollow bay]

No, I was making a point scripts change... if you cant understand that go back to... uuum... either 3rd or 4th grade english class... you missed a bit

[gilded terrace]

Story wise this one was defo rushed man it was noticble

[signal shale]

Story sucks, period

[main kettle]

Lord dosent know anything bout writers

[gilded terrace]

It didn't suck just mediocre.

[main kettle]

Ye

[signal shale]

Choices dont have no changes or consequences

[hollow bay]

Dl1 had shields, but they were clunky. Those were dropped because of Controls, not because sone s riptwriter got fired

[gilded terrace]

The trailers showed they were cooking something good.

[hollow bay]

And they dropped playing as renegades because theyre juiced up druggies

[main kettle]

Thats why chris story was better. Fun fact: there was a side quest where aiden had to catch a bandit. After doing so, bandit for punishment had his hand cut off. You couldve choose your hand for sacrfice and you would use only 1h weapons and climb slower

[hollow bay]

Ideas get scrapped all the time. Not all of this is connected to the guy they fired

[main kettle]

Yes it is. We just talked bout for minutes

[hollow bay]

His story used scrapped elements and would have been altered for the SAME CHANGES.

[main kettle]

Nope

[gilded terrace]

Well wasn't there talks about being given a harpoon gun from the renegades during e3 time ?

[gilded terrace]

Man it's fun to play in all perspectives

[gilded terrace]

Dude it is

[signal shale]

just leave it if he doesnt get it

[gilded terrace]

The scrapped whatever he was writing cause of the allegations, they kept that main plot but changed almost alot.

[hollow bay]

Sure it is, but the rating systems dont like renegades as they are now... they was even worse before, more like the DL1 bad guys, addicts and crazed, willing to kill anyone to secure tgeir next fix

[gilded terrace]

Ah.. man

[hollow bay]

They also planned for inhibitors to stave off turning, rather than making a player stronger, hence the name, but a limited number of them was a better idea

Cant say the changes are all bad

(And DL1 shields suxed)

[gilded terrace]

Well changes are welcome

But whatever they removed was disappointing

[main kettle]

Yep

[hollow bay]

Script is not even 2% of a game. Most of what you are disappointed in barely matters.

Script matters more in linear games, but were open world, go anywhere types

[main kettle]

And where did you get that number from?

[hollow bay]

Common damned sense... or have you not noticed that almost all of the game is outside the main "story"

[gilded terrace]

Dude sure the open world element and the parkour is a big part of the game.

But script was a very big part of the game man

[hollow bay]

If it was, than it was a linear game, nothing like DL1 or 2

[main kettle]

Why call god of war, god of war if the story matters so little?

[dusky jungle]

Show new DLC teaser trailer ❌
Show trailer for the 10$ bundle ✅

https://youtu.be/nXNpUoIX2Qw?si=mWgcGz80v25XQblK

[hollow bay]

Are you not the SAME people wanting an open area like they added to DL1?

[main kettle]

I want you not to make games

[gilded terrace]

Duh the open world element is fun but what's a game like that without a story

[hollow bay]

Bunch of people whining and bemoaning how horrible everuthing is, that ANYTHING else is better... but if you had it, you'd be complainkng it aint good enough

[main kettle]

Whats a movie without a story aswell

[gilded terrace]

We are not saying it's horrible

We just miss what could have been

[main kettle]

Says you

Its insanity

And i dont need a mohawk to know it

[hollow bay]

... ... bet you do have a mohawk... but its a short one, dyed pink and blue... ^_^

[gilded terrace]

Alright this enough

[main kettle]

Nah, but it speaks of insanity

[gilded terrace]

If y'all want to start throwing insults take it to dms

[willow storm]

sorry to interrupt this wonderful convo but could someone look at the lfg for for pc id appreciate it

[gilded terrace]

Mods would not take too kindly no matter how small it seems since this a community server

[gilded terrace]

Lmao man's caught in-between a heated battle

[main kettle]

I gusse john would come and say stop

[willow storm]

dont mide me im just minding my own bussnes

[main kettle]

John is cool mod

[hollow bay]

I agree, it certainly does paint the picture of a madman... but It wasnt insane to call you guys out for never being happy with what you got

You guys WERE rather vocal in your complaints

[main kettle]

So what ya looking for

[willow storm]

2 hand amour set

[hollow bay]
