does it still have micro transactions?

>big skill trees

we're shooting zombies with guns. do we really need skill trees?

>>716113790
It helps us kill zeds even better.

this isn't a killing floor game

>>716113704 (OP)
Probably will buy this when it's on sale for 50% off like I did with KF2

No fucking way they can pivot with that shitshow of a pre-release build this quickly

>>716113923
Yeah I'm expecting this to flop and bomb just like 2

KF3 will be kino and fun. Can't wait to play it, /v/ros.

>killstreaks and prestige like cod
Nah, you fucked up big time with KF2 after gutting RO2 and I will never touch a fucking Tripwire game ever again.

>>716113998
KF2 had an arguably much warmer reception despite the dissonance from grindhouse and also a discernible early access period, having a good few things going like the gun porn and gore before making a few unpopular decisions like the versus mode, resistances, and the Zedconomy shit nobody asked for, on top of Survivalist just being a shitty filler perk to round it all off. It probably did just fine if the updates outlasted KF1 on top of having console ports.

>>716113704 (OP)
THERE'S A THIRD ONE, holy crap

>>716113790
Yes.

Patty was such a great design
I can still hear the sound he makes when he's running at you while cloaked. Absolutely terrifying.

>>716113704 (OP)
>PLEASE be excited
I am. Sounds awesome

>>716113790
depends
are the match/session based? if so, ok
if they're progressive and account based, then no

Overall I liked KF2. I'll probably get KF3 but I'm gonna wait a little bit and see how it turns out.

>>716113704 (OP)
When are they going to finish KF2?

>Even more of a wacky sci-fi shit
Nah, i'll go boot up kf-westlondon for 30000000th time again.

>>716114681
I finally bought KF2 on sale just a few weeks ago and it's okay. Not as memorable as KF1, but good fun regardless. I can imagine it was A LOT worse on launch though.

>>716113704 (OP)
I liked KF1
I really liked and spent way too much time in KF2
I don't have much interest in 3

I've played enough Killing Floor.

how bad can you really fuck up this kind of game?

>>716113704 (OP)
i am. i think it looks a lot better than the first beta and that's a good sign.

It ran like hot ass, for one.

>>716114028
>he didnt play the open beta 2 weeks ago

its fucking terrible

so I played like 20 minutes of the beta earlier this year and the stress test last week. were there... actually any changes? it felt like the same generic modern AAA slop shooter that it did months ago

>>716113704 (OP)
Not interested.

Does KF3 actually have a coop campaign? A campaign is something they haven't done with KF since its very first iteration as a UT mod, so that's kinda interesting.

>>716116473
Early access was quite rocky and already put off a good few KF1 fans. Enemies casually spawning behind from pillars is gay, the cosmetics massively clashed as most really didn't fit the overall aesthetic, but the updates had a few decent ideas like with crossperk weapons, the mutators and a few enemies and bosses that eventually got canonized. E-DARs are certainly polarizing and the later filler reskin weapons were lame, as with the paid DLC weapons falling into the same trapping as KF1 did by the end, but were all pretty much shit anyway.

I'll be generous and call it a milquetoast horde shooter at worst. I did play KF2 a good deal but my friends usually wanted to go back to KF1, which was fair enough. KF3 looks too removed.

>>716114681
KF2 was fucking great between like 2014 or 2015 (Early Access) and like halfway through 2018 or 2019 when they added EDARs and a buncha lame shit. Killing Floor 2 and Vermintide 2 were the 1-2 punch of PvE horde shooters that i poured hundreds of hours into in the later half of the 2010's.

>>716118637
To be honest I haven't tried any of Fatshark's offerings. I'm aware there's a love-hate relationship with the devs at least and people say the melee is pretty good.

We're fully in the flopslop era of co-op FPS games. It's absolutely shameful when the best offerings are somehow Fartshart still providing free updates to their titles despite all the jank and problems they have.
There's also indie titles like that Mycopunk game but it's so fucking ugly I can't even be bothered to try it.

>>716116506
KF1 just had better tone, I liked the british voices.

>>716114028
I'm trans btw.

KF2 is the only game I refunded on steam. It felt like I was shoot at air, worse than L4D.

>>716113704 (OP)
no

kf1 has billions of maps and will always be fun to play along with no crashing issues. what are you waiting for, /v/?

Dude you have made this shill thread every fucking day

the last stress test after all of the """improvements""" the game was still a mess that runs like shit
total UE5 slop

>>716118747
The combat system in those games is tight and smooth as hell, the skill floor is just low enough to get into it easily, but the skill ceiling is very high, with precise timings, combos that flow into one another, deceptively complex movesets, and so forth. I've not seen a combat system with a learning curve as satisfying as in their games, where you go all the way from bumbling idiot to smoothly outplaying a horde of any size and enemy composition, while navigating backwards through a level you know like the back of your hand.
Whatever else these swedish fucks are cocking up with their games, and lord knows there's plenty, the combat has pretty much never been an issue (outside of related fields like weapon balance).
