Hey everybody, I'm back again with more solo videos showcasing the Summer Sideshow update. I played the map Airship, the updates main event with it's steampunk theme. It fits well with Killing Floor's aesthetic. Airship is a neatly detailed map perfectly fitting the tone of the update. It's layout is small but simple to remember, I held out on the end of the ship overlooking the back deck. I chose Sharpshooter for the run to showcase the new M99 sniper for Sharpshooter. It was pretty difficult to make the run look entertaining throughout. This was mostly due to my weapon selection and the zeds spawn rate is quite slow depending on where you hold. And the M99 isn't that great of a weapon to show off. It's boring to use and to watch at least from my perspective. Needless to say, It's ridiculously overpowered.
On to the other features of this update I want to discuss, I have a lot to say about this update regarding the upgrade system, and the new zeds the EDARs. Firstly, The weapon upgrade system is a total wreck, tipping the balance of the game and all the weapons. Leaving an unpolished, imbalanced system at the moment. I welcome the idea of adding such a system to the game, but it's approach for this update was not well thought out and because of that, I feel KF2 will suffer because of it. It'll take some time for the game to even out it's flaws but it won't be for quite a while. As for the addition of the EDARs, I personally don't like them at all. They offer nothing to the game. They're essentially impenetrable bullet sponges that ain't fun to engage with, and aren't gratifying enough to kill. They have no reliable weaknesses, and punish the player to harshly, handicapping the players own abilities. Now, I wouldn't mind them so much but in there current state they need a serious rework, or be removed entirely.
More videos coming soon, thanks for watching and enjoy.

[@TitaniumSubscriber]

Weapons and maps are great and all, I quite dig the prestige system although I wished the perk icon should be more than just a hexagon line outside the perk icon. And yeah I agree with what you said in the description, the weapon upgrade system is quite the disappointment and could use some work, EDARs are completely garbage addition to the enemies since they are basically a sponge and super annoying to deal with, especially the one that could stun you from out of nowhere

[@Lethmyr_]

You can prestige multiple times when the update comes out, making the icon more fancy and giving you other weapon skins in return.

[@TitaniumSubscriber]

Okay that make sense, but still after confronting the EDARs I really don't want to prestige any other perks, leveling up demo is quite the suffering for now

[@kilimandzaro555]

IMO only Airship is great. the other one is another boring ctrl c, ctrl v biotics lab. just my opinion of course. killing floor was always about grimy factories, some ruins or horror gloomy rainy castles or cottages. looks like Tripware have forgotten about that since year and they are making jokes like "nightmare" or biotics lab clones.

[@pepparmostheelder]

kilimandzaro555 You do relize the new map is a community map right? As in it was created by players because they wanted it, and Tripwire simply made it into a "proper" map for the game because of that.

[@kilimandzaro555]

as i said it is only my opinion. and your argument isn't fully correct because the most popular maps on steam workshop is some like mario or bikini atol.

[@sanctumofficium]

Really don't like how Tripwire hard-nerfed the ammo reserves of the 9mms, feels like too harsh a punishment for a weapon that's meant to be a fallback.

[@TitaniumSubscriber]

sanctumofficium you can upgrade it until max 5 and trust me it's a beast, but yeah the ammo nerf was quite brutal

[@odinswolf_766]

Damage buff was pretty big though

[@Waskomsause]

Yeah, would have enjoyed them just cutting its backup ammo supply in half, 120 instead of 240. 90 total feels a little... weak. Even with the buff and with it upgraded to 5x status its easy to run out of ammo for it while clearing trash and medium zeds.

[@SoldierOfFate]

The 9mm is rarely useful as a backup unless you play as a Gunslinger. With that perk, the 9mm is a beast with the right upgrades and skills since you can easily kill trash zeds with one shot to the head and anything weaker than a Quarterpound with 3-4.

[@butterwantschoclate9364]

@@SoldierOfFate the gunslinger doesn’t get any special bonuses for the 9mm, it’s classified as a perk weapon for all of the perks.

[@erafuwa]

My biggest issue with the update is the EDARs and their frankly absurd health books for their rarity. It is that same issue I have with the rioter but magnified by like 10 due to their head health being so jarringly high in a group of clots and there being no clear announcement of them until you see them. The static strikers also feel extremely weak compared to the rest of berzerker's arsenal

[@BoozeGoon]

The EDARS are rage, brutal, and without mercy But you, you will be worse Shoot and bash, until it is DOSH

[@BoozeGoon]

In all seriousness though, fantastic job. The EDARS defiantly kind of make the game from challenging to frustrating, i mean for fuck sakes they have enough health to stand to a fleshpound. And on wave 2? Thats just a waste of bullets and armor. Id say at least drop their health down to maybe a little near a bloat or gorefiend? And with the extra armor like the rioter since they ARE robots. Plus line *maybe* have them be neutral faction? Since they are like another companies EDARS so they fight the zeds but fight you as priority and zeds pick at the robots. Just having robots join in with the zeds seams like bullshit As for the weapon upgrading i feel its a little disbalancing and honesty i feel like it deletes the purpose of muktiple weapon varieties like the AK-12, SCAR, and All the SMGs. Just upgrade the starting weapon to max right? Anyways glad to see your action again, peace!

Your comments seem to echo the communities, the EDAR's are a poor addition to the game.

[@Psych0Gamers]

Oh, they're such a garbage addition I really hate them. Makes me wonder what the devs were thinking.

[@TitaniumSubscriber]

You tell em. EDARs are complete trash, especially the one that completely immobilzes you from any point of a map

[@Starworshipper]

Wrong, they are pretty decent enemies and I feel that they add a decent amount to the game in terms of actually forcing you to move around. That being said, they just need some work.

[@TitaniumSubscriber]

‹Neoka28› Well that's something I didn't think about. But then again, how are you suppose to move around if the map built specifically to stand your ground? Like the descent, there's barely any escape routes in some parts of it. But yeah I see your point, seems I have to adapt on kiting until TWI gives some changes to them

[@Starworshipper]

That's why this is a beta, and things will change. Even if it made into production builds, Tripwire has and will continue to make things right based on the community. They've patched weapons and zeds that have been out since the game was early access, the EDARS will get a few changes here and there and will end up being fine. They just need some work as they are stupidly spongey and their 'weak' point isn't really all that weak. Fix the stun bot being able to shoot to map geometry, make them all a bit lower on health but make them dodge a bit more often, make their weak spot actually weak. It's not going to be a very hard fix, and that's why they're still asking the community for constant feedback.
