That's why more often than not, if I can get Brimstone even if it means having just 1 HP left I'll ALWAYS take it. High damage + goes through obstacles/enemies means you can usually clear rooms with absolute minimum fuss.

If you were playing the original game, maybe. Rebirth plays like a dream for me though. No frame drops ever.

I played on Vita (back when it wasn't fucked) and I frequently ran into framerate issues. Especially with tons of tears or, for some odd reason, Widow/The Wretched when they do their web splooge attack.
I dunno, I thought Rebirth's insanely optimized for the wacky shit that can happen. Sure the ports may possibly be dodgy but I've never experienced any slowdown on the PC version, and I've gotten some pretty crazy combinations where I'm shooting things bigger than Gurdy.
[QUOTE=ArchXeno;46563674]I would honestly prefer the lost start with holy mantle instead of flight.[/QUOTE]
I'd prefer if the Lost started with the D6 to help him out.
People just mash reset if their first item room is shit-tier anyway, may as well give them the scummiest item in the game if that's how the character is just going to play out.
It's not like it'd even be broken either since Lost has no use for the notorious Scapular + Nun's Habit combo. All that could be used to amplify the dice's usefulness would be 9-Volt and AAA Battery, and at most all that does is reduce it down to a 4-room charge.
Cellar I: picked up unicorn stump hoping I would find a good melee item later.
Depths II: Mom's knife.

You can be guppy and lord of the flies at the same time.
[QUOTE=bindingofisaac.com]After Birth
its been 3 weeks since the release of rebirth and the game has been blown through by the hungry rabid isaac obsessed masses.
at this point most of the hardcore fans have 100%”d the game, and a high % of you watched this and are working on it yourselves. now that you have experienced rebirth and know what it has to offer, i want your input on what you would all like to see in the expansion.
once the holidays end, the nicalis gang will be jumping back into the abyss and digging into the very large design doc i have ready for em. i have big plans for this expansion, i hope to add a very huge chunk of gameplay in the form of a new game mode that will almost double the amount of things you can do, im very proud of this new design.
aside from this new game mode the expansion will feature a ton more enemies, bosses, new areas, endings and a new playable character as well as a slew of new unique items to play with… but here is where you come in.
the biggest change for me when it comes to how im designing the expansion is this time im asking the vast and creative isaac community for ideas.
this week ill be asking for item ideas, i will be cherry picking the top 10 items from this list and implementing them into the expansion.. so be sure to make them good.
a few guide lines ——
1. Only suggest item effects, im not at all looking for item names/themes/visuals but only effects.
example:
-a store item that rerolls the store and has a recharge of 3.
-a tear effect that turns your tears into…
-a trinket that makes a fart sound whenever you shoot
2. Do not suggest redundant items.
example:
- an item that rerolls all items in the room with a recharge of 1
- an item like X but better.
3. do not suggest overly complex items.
example:
- an item that teleports you to the boss room but gives you one heart double damage and shows the map, but gives you 2 min to beat the boss before you die.
Where do i post my item ideas?
Reddit, more specifically this post [URL="http://www.reddit.com/r/bindingofisaac/comments/2ncfsb/rebirth_expansion_community_item_suggestions/"]HERE[/URL]
up vote items you love, down vote items that dont match the guidelines i mention above.. and DONT EMAIL ME YOUR IDEAS!
have fun designing! im very happy with all the new items in rebirth and what new options they give you when they combo. i have a lot of cool new items designed and am excited to see what out of the box ideas some of you might come up with that i never thought of.
btw- this wednesday at 8pm pst i will be live with [URL="http://www.twitch.tv/northernlion"]Northern Lion[/URL] along side Matthias ( and possibly tyrone?). we will be talking rebirth, what you might expect in the expansion and maybe even go over a few items you guys designed that i like.

from here on out ill be doing posts about the expansion, each week ill be asking for more community feedback so be sure to tune in (almost every) monday![/QUOTE]

so yeah, expansion confirmed, post item ideas over there
Dunno if I'm late but apparently taking Experimental Treatment with ??? just outright kills you.
Also this shit happened.

I DID finish my first ever Eden run with Midas Touch, Mom's Knife, Leo, Li'l Brimstone and Unicorn Stump though.
By the Cathedral I was just using Unicorn Stump and turning bosses into gold within seconds, it was hilarious.
Knocked out both Isaac and the Boss Rush.
I kind of figured at least one expansion would come sooner or later, but I was hoping they'd address some of the bullshittier existing game mechanics first, like those red lumps that everyone hates for very good reason.

That's what I was hoping for, too. But if it's not even being discussed by this point then I'd say they're obviously set in their ways and aren't going to change it. If I had to guess, the shitty logic they're probably using is that you should be super powerful by the womb and able to kill them quickly, but that's dumb. It should be possible to fight everything in the game without taking damage even on the weakest build. Really hard, yes, but possible. Oh well, at least the lost can fly and avoid getting runs ruined by them.
The idea of [I][B]MORE[/B][/I] content for Rebirth is willy shrivelling to think about. There's already more content in a 15$ game than there is in most big budget releases.
I'm scared, Edmund.

also by red lumps do we mean red poop, cause fuck that?
Otherwise I don't know what the red lump in the womb everyone mentions is

Lump is Lump. That's their name.

However the only reason anyone knows their name is because of the bestiary that was shown in the credits of the first game. None of the new enemies have names that anyone knows of.
oh maybe it's cause I'm super bad at the game but I never find them that annoying?
Usually if I'm at the womb it's because I couldn't possibly lose unless I lose a hand during gamepaly
I just got assraped by an animation loop.

I had the ludovico and the pony, among other things. Then in this room, there was tammy's head in a chest in the center, in that 1-tile space. I accidentally flew into it while avoiding the enemies, and got stuck in a loop of switching between tammy's head and pony. I couldn't get out of that space, because the pony's flight doesn't kick in until that animation is over. and while I was stuck in that loop, I couldn't control my tear.
In retrospect, I could have exited the game and used the continue button to re-do the room, but that thought didn't occur to me before I got gangbanged to death by the blood jets.
I was looking forward to such an easy run too. Was going to use my gnawed leaf to just sit in a corner of the Mom room and wait for her to die, and do a similar thing to the heart. But nope, got done in by this obscure combination of bullshit.
Well, may as well start thinking of some new items.
Common Cents: Basically a money = power for fire rate
Kings Conversation: First enemy you kill becomes a temporary ally for that room
Step Ladder: 2 square ladder
Golden Bomb: Unlimited bombs for that floor
Coin Slinger: Use space to shoot coins, bounces off of enemies before falling to the ground
Powered Chili: Getting hit causes you to leave a trail of flames for a bit

Soooooooo wish the donation machine didn't jam.
Golden boy get
Now it's just completion with every other character then
I only play as isaac or azazel
got a six sided die room, got all of my items turned into freaking familiars, a lost contact, a cursed eye, a little planet, the sign that gives you a bow on your head and a shield. How i beat isaac as eden after that was fucking confusing, if it wasnt for dry baby, leech, the bbf, the giant fly near your head and thr lord of the flies set I probably would of been real angrish.
i hope that fart trinket makes it into the game
How to have your The Lost run end prematurely:
Enter a room with two of those brimstone eyeballs in opposing corners.
RNG man.
Found the supposed "rare alt to Satan" or "ur-gurdy" or whatever. Scrapped though, unfortunately.

Apparently you were supposed to unlock them by completing Sheol 10 times, and they are a throwback to [url=http://gish.wikia.com/wiki/Vis_Sister]Gish[/url], which completely makes sense. I wouldn't be surprised if Edmund also planned a [url=http://gish.wikia.com/wiki/Sister_Vis]Cathedral[/url] variant at some point. I'd totally like to see them in a future expansion.
Also yeah I'm 100% sure they're not in the game, otherwise I wouldn't have posted this. The only thing that's left of them is this unlock notice, a boss screen text, and a commented out achievement. No sprites at all, so maybe they were scrapped very early during development.
Interestingly enough, the unlock notice says "Sisters Vis" even though that's the name of the habit-wearing ones, the boss title says "Sister Vis", and the achievement text says "Sister's Vis". Talk about confusing.
