As for rushing ahead, I donāt think thatās always the case. Some people are just very slow⦠you gotta pace your self. Thereās a least one person every few runs who stops moving for hordes, or even run backwards through the map to get to the horde faster when they spawn behind.
Just keep moving forward. If itās just a horde with no boss, you donāt need all 4 people on it. Two of you can split off and get the grim or tome if itās close enough.
During the beta, hordes were very tanky. This was fixed somewhat towards the end. I just donāt like the idea of horde mobs having that much HP. I did like that elites and zerkers spawnes in hordes now. Iād rather seem more elites in a horde than more HP.
Weāll just have to wait and see what changes theyāve made
Sure being super paranoid about a game that hasnāt even released yet is a little bit off putting (but i can totally understand why some feel this way) however being total fanboy and ignoring all the relevant criticism is the extreme opposite what we need right now.
Is the current live legend āanti coopā i guess if you are good enough currently you can mostly solo it so yes i agree to some extend. However were the early legend/cata builds absolutely stupid on the beta? Yes, yes they were and people really need to see this. It has nothing to do with people being āego centricā it was literally just level of spongy enemies that took way too long to die even for the most powerful single target weapons in the game.
Still waiting for release to make any glaring judgementās on the actual gameplay because they have said they did take feedback into consideration but if its even remotely close to what we had in the last beta iām not really surprised if people feel cheated out of their gameplay.
Oh Iām not. Itās none of my business anyway if anything I need to him/her to give me some pointers so I can step my game up.
Back on topic, since the game is releasing āearly Augustā I guess my orignal question is pointless now. No time for another beta. Hopefully I can still get an answer on the rest though.
They already kinda shot themselves in the leg with the āearly augustā would be really surprised now if its not released before 19th. Then again my first guess was late august so guess anything can happen with fatshark.
When I for example play QP, I will do just this, I will run forward killing stuff, pick up a tome and if team wants grims than they can take them, no problem for me.
Reason for that is that the difficulty is too easy. And Iām not going to sit in one spot killing horde for 2-3 minutes when I can move just fine. And doing one run for 30 minutes instead of 15. It has absolutely nothing to do with the green circles & ego bullsh-t you are mentioning.
I donāt get this at all (again), why would they do this, basically tell community they will release early August.
1st, there was so much stuff that needed fixing ā¦
2nd, if they now donāt release āearly Augustā people will start getting pissed, I can already see that.
To me early august sounds like any date before the 11th augustā¦not 19th
I hope they release it ASAP, they aknowledge it will need some extra tweaks so we should be fine anyways !
To do something nice for all the people who are excited for the release (as well as they are I presume) since they already know the release date but canāt announce it. Besides, people are always pissed no matter what. They are pissed even now because FS still didnāt announce the date and whatnot.
This is so true. I freaking hate it when players just stagnate into place because something appears on the screen. And hunting for green circles is basically just trying to o be efficient and time saving. Me and my team usually did runs on Fort Brachenbrucke in around 10-12 minute on legend with full tomes and grims. Why? Because we didnāt sit around lollygagging during our run. And besides. We actually egg each other on to see which one gets on top. Because if we are all hunting for those stupid circles. The run goes so much faster.
I donāt āhateā them, as I have a level that is above them (most people are not really experienced in legend so you canāt really hate them as once, you were like them), but itās more that the game gets āeasierā if you rush it, as thereās less attrition overall (of healing stuff or ammo).
I think that the reason why they donāt announce release date is that they are not agreed on price tag or maybe theyāre simply preparing ad campaign for DLC.
Then you go do that.
Personally I donāt see the charm of taking over 30 minutes to play just one round because people are just slow and inefficient. Maybe the first 2-3 runs on a new map you take it abit slower to take in the scenery and look for tomes and grims but after that itās just a waste of time. Better to just do it quickly as to push yourself and see how hard you can push. Naturally this could be done in cataclysm during the beta aswell. You just needed the correct setup and the know-how. Also I get the idea about not caring about the circles but you can see it this way too. Not caring for those circles only proves you donāt care about your performance which mean someone like me is going to have to carry you. Not that I mind it that much but itās just how I see it. And honestly most people I get in my games donāt care about the fast pace. Most actually like it since we do runs quickly and with th greatest of ease.
Hopefully Cataclysm will be different.
Me and my team always keep a very high pace which we have noticed always punishes any ārandomā player we have joining us if we are not 4. Most of them just think āOMG that was so quick can we do more?ā Which is always fun to hear.
Iāve personally always been someone who adapts to the groups running speed rather than trying to keep my own pace since i know good portion cant keep up with it. To me if the run takes 15 or 30 mins is really irrelevant as long as it gets done instead of getting some idiotic wipe due to massive splitting.
Some game devs really love to make an argument for the 2nd week of the month hence the 19th is the absolute back-line for me what i consider āearly monthā.
Then again as early as this week would now make sense to have some open beta period before the final launch on next week to fix the absolute critical issues but i guess weāll see.
Can you run faster than horde with your setup? I canāt. When someone can run its becouse my FK is hitting in the back. Sorry, but I canāt walk and hit with 2h hammer.
