      @darenabryant9100 Před 13 dny +24

      Dark Souls and other games like it spawned this nonsense of making a game 'challenging' by requiring you to basically memorize everything about it. After that experience, certain people came forward who seemed intent on ALL games being similar, where you either learned each detail to a high degree and could perform an exact series of moves and actions to avoid death, or you weren't any good at the game.
      What a lot of people missed was... that's only fun, or even possible, for a relatively small group of people, and in games like this one, playing by yourself is literally the wrong way to play. You want *everyone* to be able to get in on this, not just the hardcore master players who play the game with their toes (you laugh but there was this one Dark Souls player who somehow beat the game with all the graphics turned off. Like, he couldn't SEE anything. He seemed bored.)

Some parts of the souls games are ridiculously hard (Malenia in Elden Ring), but just the main path to finish the game you can beat by upgrading the first weapon you get and just getting used to how the game controls.

  • @DesidiosumCorporosumHominis

    Easiest way to make the AA stratagem fun is you choose your three stratagems and the game rolls your fourth. Take the back packs and support weapons out of the RNG pool so you'll either get a turret, orbital, eagle strike or mech.
    In doing this you can either high roll and get exactly what you want or you'll get a stratagem you wouldn't normally use. This would give the underutilized stratagems a chance to shine.
    I honestly think this could be the most fun stratagem if they make this change

    Played around with the turrets, they do better against bots, but can still melt due to the sheer volume of rockets which hasn't changed much and is now a little worse thanks to gunships being added to patrols. Against bugs...well, an attempt was made.
    Mines are still too niche no matter how much damage is added to them to justify their use.
    All the orbitals feel really good now, especially precision strike which can now one-shot most heavy enemies with it's significantly reduced call in time.
    The HMG is still having teething issues, where a supply pack and recoil compensation armor still feels rather mandatory for how much it kicks while firing but it does indeed melt medium armor targets (like most bots) quickly. Don't use against gunships, it can deal with them but you will disappointed with it.
    Tenderizer is now....good, it actually functions like a high caliber, highly accurate rifle despite being low armor pen. The rest of the assault rifles are still crap and the Sickle is right there.
    Both Diligence rifles now feel really good thanks to a change in the sights being significantly less bright so you can see your target clearly, and the shots now go where you want them to. So that little bugbear has finally been cleared up.
    Beware the new Flamer Hulk, he may not turn you into a crispy critter in a microsecond but he now moves faster then a berserker and has some new animations for his buzzsaw. You ever seen a walker doing an overhead hammer strike? Well neither did I until he did it.
    Overall, a step in the right direction but sweet baby Jesus they still need to readjust their spawns. Regular Chargers have been seemingly replaced whole sale by Behemoth Chargers in diff 7-9 and are being spammed relentlessly like it's the launch build of the game. With the same problems of the Chargers at launch, all your AT options against the B-Chargers is half as effective, so no more 1 shot headshots and enjoy this fast moving bullet sponge that can ragdoll you with ease.

    Not sure if it says it anywhere in patch notes, but the “busted up” Hellbombs that you find in the wild now immediately explode if you hit them with something explosive (as opposed to the dust and then delayed explosion when just firing a round into them) haven’t tried all the weapons yet but the expendable AT and any grenade type DO cause an immediate explosion.

    I will say the spear is sooo nice with the lock on and lock on sound indication like a stinger or javelin and its pretty quick now. Can't wait for them to fix it for fabricator lock ons, maybe they could make it slightly slower for fabricators or towers just so its not too strong but feels nice when it locks on. Eagle strafe run and gattling barrages melts hulks and tanks now 💪. So alot of good variety to bring strategems instead of the same ole same strategems like eagle air strike, or rail cannon strike for big armor all the time. A well coordinated squad can basically carry all different kinds of strategems that can hit almost everything

    as a machine gun enjoyer, this is fantastic for me. i mostly used the mg43, so its light buff is great, but ill definitely have to give the heavy machin gun another go with its 150 damage. might actually become useful at dealing with devastator hordes.
    edit: the heavy mg destroys devastor hordes like its nothing. the increase reload speed makes it viable, shooting the gunship engines destroys them if you get a few good bursts in, you can kill hulks shooting the head but its hard and i noticed the ADS tends to hit low, so use third person aiming

    Eruptor feels powerfull now but still would like its damage dropoff lowered so it csn have a AEO effect on small enemies.
    The Crossbow still feels underwhelming. Just a worse Eruptor at all times...
    Surprised 0 shotgun changes, specially Breaker SnP which is just worse Breaker incindiary.
    Spear fix is amazing, cant wait to take out factories with it! Tho there is a bug where it doesnt reload all 3 rockets when you have the superior packaging method mod. Only reloads 2 from a supply box.
    The scope missalignment is still an issue for some weapons, this should be of outmost importance to fix.
