My only current gripe is the time it takes to use anything, health, power up whatever, the animation takes absolutely forever. May need to co-op some of the bosses. Have managed to solo all so far, but this latest one, I need to be able to get radiation meds in. Would be nice to at least jog while taking them. (Clearly, the slow animation is to encourage teamwork in co-op) Other than that though, it's freakin great. And I have tried different weapons and they're fun enough, but my opening rifle and pistol upgraded are still awesome to use. Really really slow to get more armour though.
Facewon wrote:Yeah. Solo so far. I'm not finding it that difficult, mostly. It is, so far, 100% fair in systems. Once you understand what the music and voice cues mean, and suss a few of the harder enemies, if you take your time, you can do most things. I do wonder what it'd be like with one of the cqc builds though. I've gone the ranger, and the starting primary is just a fucking beast. Game deals out crit damage pretty liberally, and base damage is not shit, so vast majority of enemies, even in second area, are 90% of the time 1 or 2 shot kills. I also pumped a bucket of trait points into the ranger specific trait shadow warrior or whatever it's called. Basically means dudes stay with their heads up ass for longer. I creep my way forward real slow. Anti-speed run.
Multiple death bits so far for me:
- basically the first bit in the sewer where the big fuckers with the double sword arms appeared. Took me a while to get timing on their heavy attack window. Also where the big dragging sword dudes really fucked me, because they close distance so fast and there's not a lot of room.
- First boss and church. Both tough because I went in with wrong mods. Church is particularly annoying because it's 2 minutes, but the first 90 seconds is a piece of piss, and then the last 30 secs is a clusterfuck.
I've had a few other deaths to reg enemies through being too gung ho, and also in new areas before getting the right cure quick assigned. I am just playing on normal though.

Yeah, it just needs more variety. I'm still struggling to remember which direction everything is in.Curtis wrote:The starting area is hella confusing when you first start playing. I've seen a map and its not actually that complicated, it just all looks very similar. There are certain 'signposts' that help but it takes a few laps to figure out where each branch leads.
