what the fuck man

>>723943239 (OP)
Let me know when I can play as a black woman with a thong.

>>723943239 (OP)
lmao gotta hire more black medics to revive the franchise

>1st game is new and original, max soul
>2nd game has better visuals, more content
>3rd game has worse visuals and less content

Some of you guys are alright don't google killing floor 1 steam players

>>723943350
tying characters to classes and getting rid of all the VAs boggles my mind

>>723943239 (OP)
damn, that's unironically bleak. this and payday 3 are sad to see.

>>723943412
KF1 already had more players than KF3 on Steam this week

>>723943350
but enough about payday 3

>>723943239 (OP)
they only have themselves to blame

at least killing floor 2 is active

is this where it went downhill?

Seriously WHO the fuck was an audience for KF3?

>>723943524
KF1bros... WTF?

>>723943612
me
i was actually going to buy it full price day one since i got so much value out of kf1 and kf2
then i played the beta and it was fucking awful

>no new content
>still buggy as fuck
>still no fucking text chat
>constant issues because of Tim's shitty anti-cheat

kf1 has more players than kf3 during the weekend

blasthavers... were our blasts not blasty enough?

>>723943239 (OP)
>you don't kill floors

>>723943894
also the game is a esthetically awful
especially the lame character designs

>>723943612
Normies.
They moved away from the niche and killed their game.

>>723943239 (OP)
The devs saw Payday 3 and went "hold my beer"

>>723943239 (OP)
I'm STILL having a blast

Why does lighting look so unnatural, why are there weird outline around fp, why does animation feel so weightless and instantly stops and turn into idle animation with no delay and transition. Why did they forget about nice balance of whites and blacks and turned everything into fullbright pre-alpha meme tier graphics. They fired all old devs ain't it and hired interns ain't it?

I'm glad Tripwire will go bankrupt they deserve it for ruining not just KF but also Red Orchestra and Rising Storm IPs

>>723943239 (OP)
the fact you need a 3070 to run it above Medium probably doesn't help. it's not a very accessible game.

>>723944686
I'm on an rtx 3060 and this shit runs like dogshit, like even worse than BL4

>>723943239 (OP)
Pretty sure the people behind Payday3 also were involved with KF3. You think they got fired?

>>723944985
does it still have awful ghosting or it was only with amd cards?

>>723945191
both thirds will bankrupt their companies so i hope they will get rewarded for killing them

>>723943239 (OP)
shit game, tried it and it felt off. blops3 is still king

>>723943778
>WTF WHY DOESN'T THIS FIFTEEN YEAR OLD GAME HAVE 50K CONSISTENT PLAYERS?!
No shit the game that peaked when the internet was a fifth of its current size has a small playerbase which is the entire reason why people want a proper fucking sequel to it and not stupid garbage like kf3 that's an entirely different game with a killing floor skin stapled on top of it.

>>723944686
I'm on a 6700xt and it ran fine on high settings at 1440p

>>723945923
that's basically a 3060 TI which is a hop skip and a jump from a 3070, thoughbeit.

Killing floor 2 sucked for different reasons

>>723946208
KF2 was great between 2015 and 2018. it wasn't till they added the robot enemies that i truly started to turn on it. and even then they kinda kept my attention because they added weapon upgrades so i could use my favorite T1 and T2 weapons all game instead of being funneled toward the tacticool T4 weapons. my least favorite thing about KF3's armory is that even the Tier 1's look like tacticool ass T3's from KF2.

>>723945807
Just don't check L4D2 numbers kek

>>723943239 (OP)
>>723943465
state of PvE games as of last month

Why does UE5 slop look so much worse compared to UE4 and UE3. Unreal engine now just looks like washed out, no stylized graphics. Why does KF3 look so UGLY

>>723943412
Why does it look so ugly and why does KF3 look like it has no lighting. Why is unreal engine 5 so fucking ugly

>>723948687
I still play Darktide but their content cadence is like once a fucking year. Also the duelist sword still exists which makes me despise them

>>723943412
western devs are incapable of producing what they could just 10 years ago.

>>723944421
Because there are no graphics programmers left at modern game companies.
It's just "artists" creating hideously bloated and unoptimised shader graphs that no one can understand past the first 3-6 months of development.

This game is a counterargument to faggots who say "durr TF2 is 18 years old, move on"

>>723943239 (OP)
>>723943412
It's seriously so funny KF3 was such dogshit it made people realise KF2 isn't that bad of a game after all and run back to it.

The game has a good foundation, but it lacks content in every regard. What ultimately killed the game is that they have released the game with only six or so maps, only four weapons per class and not every class from the previous games. It's just not enough in today's climate.
What would have been the bare minimum is a big rooster of maps, a massive amount of weapons per class, more weapon modifications that alter your play style, and every class from the previous titles. In addition, a monthly update with more stuff.
You can't just release a bare-bones or minimum game and be done with it.
I fully expect retards who rage here every day to turn around in a year once the game has more of everything and was sold for a fiver. Faggots here are desperate, poor and always mad at new releases.

>>723944287
This. No one wants to play as a generic black dude

>>723944421
Because their playtesters probably realized that they blurry dogshit UE5 game was completely visually unreadable so they went to apply a bandaid fix, with no regard for quality.

>>723943350
>>723943412
KF2 had the same issue and was absolutely lambasted on release, but i guess we got nothing else to compare that isn't ancient, absolutely fucking grim.

>>723943239 (OP)
blasted so hard my toilet got clogged

>>723943612
It wasn't THAT absurd. KF2 was a massive financial success by watering down KF1 and being more tacticool, for the suits what matters is that line must go up so the next logical step was to water down KF2 and make it even more tacticool.
Problem is that the game is just trash and cheaply made UE5 slop, unpalatable even for the cattle that usually eats up everything.

>>723949537
i dropped Darktide shortly before the beginning of Year 2 because they went back on their stated goal of adding 4 classes per year and they'd done nothing to enhance enemy or level environment variety, or to add more free cosmetics since launch. it still blows me away there are no dual wield weapons or something equivalent to Saltzpyre's Pistol and Saber weapon from like 2016. it's been a MASSIVE step down in terms of their live service compared to Vermintide 2.

>>723953112
At this point, I'm pretty sure that next to combat feel, they only know how to hook people on gacha rng grinding elements which they heavily place everywhere. It's also always the same cycle with their games, overpromise, barely deliver, rework the same systems multiple time, pretend the console release won't slow down development, go radio silent for a long time until the console release, release miniscule updates in the future and quietly work on a new game all the time.
If this wouldn't have the Warhammer sticker on it, it would have tanked the company.

>>723953112
Please stop complaining and buy items from the cash shop instead.

What's the point in catering to flaming faggots like OP? It's clear as day that he would never buy any new Killing Floor game ever. If it was a carbon copy of KF1, he'd simply say he already got KF1 and why would he need it. KF1 faggots are nostalgia faggots who don't buy video games. They are a loud minority who cloud themselves in nostalgia and never buy games, just like arena fps fags and rts fags.

>>723954005
>Why cater to people who dislike KF3
Because there's more people playing KF2 than KF3.

>>723943239 (OP)
Killing Floor, the entire series, was never good. No, not even the first one. It always sucked.

>>723954129
I'd say they had the KF2 audience more in mind than anyone. They just advanced certain aspects like movement and weapon modification. What was weird is that they haven't located more maps around the glove, when it was clear that they initially thought so with KF2.

>>723954174
Killing Floor 1 was a great fun little game to spend $5 on and play with a bunch of your friends from Skype.

It's not a $70+Cash shop game as a service experience.

Looks like KF3 just use these threads to downvote the game with no substance to it. LOL

>>723944287
kek I'm actually a black guy and an engineer and I didn't buy KF3
Loved KF1, and was lukewarm about KF2

>>723956990
>lukewarm about KF2
Yeah you are a nigger

>KF3 flopped
>Payday 3 flopped
>'83 flopped
>Black Orchestra Worldfront is dead
But hey, at least we have BF6, right?

>>723957037
NTA but KF2 was a fun coop horde shooter you contrarian retard.
>but muh grimdark atmosphere
suck a dick faggot

>>723957037
Was I supposed to hate it? It was kinda fun, more classes, more bosses and shit
And KF1 is pretty much a solved game at this point

>>723957145
>'83 flopped
it did?

>>723957210
>>723957240
Double retards kys

>>723957251
There was/is a demo but it's in its pre-pre alpha stage, runs like total ass and plays like a mobile game.
It's clear none of the OG RS/RO devs worked on it. Seems like most of the work got outsourced to Pajeets or some shit due to budget constraints.
Real shame.

>>723948687
drg still king with that player retention

>>723943239 (OP)
Let the bodies hit the floor.

>>723957145
>>Black Orchestra Worldfront is dead
Thought it wasn't even out? They kept saying they wanted to get a proper mod page on the steam store before releasing so it gets the max amount of exposure

>>723952603
KF2 got shit on release but mostly just for the visual aspect being more into sci-fi approach , not focusing on british humor (Still mad at the lack of Insult player option) and the *lack* of content.
But it never got shit on as much KF3 did.

>>723957721
They released a beta.

>>723957145
>Black Orchestra Worldfront is dead
What the fuck, never heard of it.

>>723958817
Well, go play it right now and to populate the servers.

>>723958941
>It's a mod for that pacific game they released some time ago
Yeah, I don't even own the game, let alone want to own it. They better negotiate a standalone deal in the future to populate the mod.

>>723959401
>They better negotiate a standalone deal
Wont help, we already had that one mod about soviet-finnish war

>>723943239 (OP)
He knew

>>723943350
>2nd game has better visuals
the graphics have more fidelity but KF1's atmosphere is unbeaten

>>723951381
Maybe we really did go to the moon and lost the technology along the way.

>>723961165
Everyone fucking knew

>Steamcharts
KYS

>>723948585
L4D2 doesn't count because it's moddable. 99% of its players are playing as huge titted anime girls running around in the Mushroom Kingdom

>>723961165
yeah no shit

>>723952603
KF2 at least still had a certain level of polish and the old characters
KF3 has neither

>>723961165
Everyone with an IQ above 80 knew. You fags really are NPCs

>>723943524
KF2 is still the most played but a lot of that playercount is bots farming items, the real playercount is around 500-1k
>Why farm shitty cosmetics that no one buys tho?
IDK nigga, but if you still play KF2 you will notice it when you use the server browser

>>723952603
>Game 1 release to praise
>Sequel is worse and is shat on constantly and everyone say the last one was better
>Sequel is worse and is shat on constantly and everyone say the last one was better
A tale as old as time. And I'm with you, KF2 was insultingly bad. Retards are so use to garbage that they think lootboxes are a good thing now

>>723943239 (OP)
Killing Floor and Payday both really went to shit.

they did a new update and it fixes a lot of stuff. might be too late tho

>>723971743
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m82vOC_g4HQ
Update just dropped, my homosexual brethren. One new weapon to some classes.

>>723967864
KF2 was alright, it was a shame that they ditched most of the atmosphere elements from 1 and added gambling. But the game itself was solid and the characters were still funny brits.
KF3 however, Jesus Christ how did they managed to screw up THAT badly.

>>723951536
modern hero shooters and tf2 are nothing alike until zoomers want you to stop complaining about tf2s shit state, then they suddenly become the perfect replacement

>>723943239 (OP)
I unironically had a blast but at some point you just have seen and done everything.
Sure I could have grinded every class or even one to 30, but what's the point?
Play game. Finished? Cool, now go to new game.

>>723972923
Classes and characters got divorced. They are changing stuff people hate at least. Let's see what the future brings, but I can't imagine many people creating maps for that game.

>>723973692
>future
Bro.
There is no future.
I don't wanna play as a Pablo dropping quirky MCU lines every 5 seconds. They killed it. This is not Killing Floor.

>>723974250
You can still play as Mr Foster and make him silent.

>>723943412
I remember seeing the trailer previews of the new models for Killing Floor 2 and loving the animations and sound design. I can't fucking believe how much worse things have become.

>>723943350
>>723951632
>>723957145
>KF3 is so shit people come crawling back to 2
>Payday 3 is so shit people come crawling back to 2
many such cases

>6 quintillion indie games release everyday that are "Action, Bullet Hell, Roguelite, Roguelike, RPG"
>0 (zero) indie PvE game that is just shooting monsters

How is this even possible?

>>723957758
Killing Floor 2 was more of a power fantasy than KF1 felt like and I hated that. But it wasn't a bad game.

>>723974335
OR I could just play KF1 and 2 and hear funny shit again.
Why would I play a KILLING FLOOR game without old brit banter?

>>723974795
This has been talked about in this very thread.

>>723975163
I know, I just had to get that out of my chest.

>>723943239 (OP)
>Buy KF2
>Shit won't boot up
>Have to delete the KillingFloor2 folder every time I want to launch the game
>Can't change settings that require a restart otherwise I'm back to square 1
I spent like 3 bucks on that shit and I still feel scammed. The gameplay was also really spastic in comparison to KF1.
