Thread 715660293

how do they manage to make the game worse with every update?

Irish devs, drunker with every update.

>tfw they made everyone so disinterested you can't even get any shitposters
lol, lmao

>>715660293 (OP)
they only pushed it to 1.0 to make paid dlc

If i remember correctly they were acquired by some gigajew publisher during early access and they just pushed out a garbage 1.0 with actual AI slop plastered over the walls in the first fucking level and then they dipped for 6 months released a fucking DLC. This shit deserves all the hate it's getting desu

>>715664934
i was looking at the posters in the streamers room and it was a lot worse than i remembered

>>715662528
They're incorporated in Ireland. They work from home around the globe.

>>715666421
Which means jeet devs

>>715664934
dev came to steam forums to reiterate that they are still independent

They are self-published unless you mean an investor bought into their company?

Their problem is the lack of publisher. They went radio silent for nearly a year in Early Access until people started bitching then they starting communicating again. They were a year late on their Early Access mark (lol) and they got tired of it so they rushed out 1.0.

1.0 removed game modes and modified the suspect AI for the worse. Then they started pumping out DLC. Now they've reached PC market saturation so shat out this console version where they optimized the game for console and backported it to PC.

They're extremely lazy developers, having a proper publisher would have lit fire under their asses to get the job done at least "good enough" instead of the absolute garbage they push out.

>>715666685
What's more is they like to act superior and tout they don't answer to any investors and then pull this pussy shit with the console versions and fuck over the PC playerbase.

>>715666817
>Full release
>Two DLCs out
>Console port
>Trailer units are still broken as shit and only appear in practice mode

>>715667009
Funniest bit is that they lowered the graphical fidelity on PC without saying anything. Jews gonna jew.

Best bet for anyone asschapped by this is to chargeback if you've been a supporter prior to them moving to steam. If you've bought the game on steam you should opt for a manual refund, citing every shady thing Void has done.

Just bear in mind that modern game developer studios have revolving doors: employees come and go. So take note of who's working there and avoid any of their future projects. LinkedIn allows you to easily access the names of who's working there. Doesn't matter if they were against or for the changes, they're guilty by association so they deserve to eat shit.

Grim

Is it FUN?

>>715660293 (OP)
havent played the new update. what made it worse?
im assuming no new maps (the only worthwhile content in an fps)

>>715669360
Actually there are two new maps, a fast food place and a run down tenement
Though I'm pretty sure the fast food one has been on the mod browser for ages

I'm curious about the other changes too, wondering if I can switch off my AI mods now that there's difficulties to pick from

>can't disable crossplay

>loss of progression

>gore effects were turned down
>permanent visible strobes attached to officer helmets

>>715660293 (OP)
was about to buy it on the summer sale before i heard about the censorship, whats the latest version should i be looking for that keeps that content?

ETA on a restoration mod

>>715660293 (OP)
Worse in what way? I played a bit yesterday and they fixed the slog arrest animation, added two new maps and optimized the game(I'm getting stable 240fps on 4k)

>>715670142
Look for a torrent that offers anything before patch 19159877 (june 15th). 17525066 is the build right before it (feb). Grab a build pre-1.0 (launch) if you want to play some of the removed content.
>>715670212
It's looking grim. People were saying Void ported the console build directly to PC so it may be a while.

hopefully gunfighter gets updated soon

>>715669902

i still have my diamond watch so it could be worse

Doing Hard Mode now and it's so fucking cancer, if you don't pay attention for a single second you instantly get punished
>clear the whole first half of the hospital
>standing in front of the walkway door
>check my mag
>ahmed busts through the door as I got my fucking mag out
>cant put it away
>he instantly blasts me in the head because everyone on hard mode is a god tier savant at aiming
>my swatties just stand there not reacting
This difficulty is cock and ball torture

>>715670762
Levels are already horrible, that hospital is perfect example of this. Too big, too mazey. Most of the I feel like I'm a janitor, cleaning up the floors from room to room because I need to hunt down that 1 single AI who is somewhere and they don't usually even move around.
Just garbage game.
Weapon classes are useless, only choice is between 'lethal' or beanbag shotgun.
Waste of time and money for sure.

Zero Hour is better game and that cost me $1.5 on cdkeys. Too bad it's somewhat obscure for most players to this day.

>>715671404
most of *time

>>715671404
Nah the game's great, I just dislike the new difficulty
I've S ranked all the maps and did ironman + no swatties dead before on standard and it was great fun. Hard mode is just a drag

>>715670762
it's so bad, i was s ranking the streamer and was on the final suspect. opened the door and he started running behind cover i beanbagged him and in the middle of his stun animation i hear gunshots and im dead

>>715671404
audible yikes. Imagine being this bitter over a decent game.

>>715660293 (OP)
I feel the same way about call of duty
>>715662528
Fucking based.

>>715660293 (OP)
think I could get a refund for this? got it years ago. don't want to play a downgraded version

>>715671865
No.

>>715671404
I will say I wish the enemies did roam a bit more, it'd be cool running into patrols and taking them out affected the enemies that don't roam
>>715671642
Good thing they gave the narc some underwear, him missing his nose and fingers is one thing, but an exposed penis is a bit much

>>715671404
the hospital levels dogshit but you dont need to act like zero hours better lol

>>715671865
You can. People have successfully done it. You have to talk to steam support and not go through the automated process. Ignore the shills telling you you're not able to.

>>715671963
What about the dog? did they remove it too?

>>715673048
Haven't heard, if they didn't include it in that screenshot collection of the other changes I'd assume not
Then again I had better faith in this dev before all this shit got announced
