[QUOTE=Max;46686576]Token system is so that you wont exploit the game by restarting, not because of how powerful Eden is[/QUOTE] Oh well completely forgot about that, you're right. Well I have around 50 tokens and had twice as much so abusing the restart wasn't an issue. Getting a decent start was though
Also for those of you concerned about the attack fly limit: [B]It's currently believed that Attack Flies aren't affected by the change.[/B] Note the wording: [QUOTE]Limit Halo of Flies count to 10[/QUOTE] Your first thought may be that they're talking about Pretty Fliess, but then you'll brush it off after you realize that you can't have more than 3 pretty flies... Well, you [I]can[/I] have more than 3 pretty flies. They just appear inside eachother and are otherwise useless. A bunch of people are claiming that they can take way more than 10 attack flies with them through rooms, so make of that what you will. Though it seems kinda stupid to even mention the fact that you can no longer have more than 10 Pretty Flies when that hardly affects the game in any meaningful way anyway!
[QUOTE=NateDude;46686572]Funfact: If you've modified any of the following files, you'll see this [img]http://i.imgur.com/Qkj2myM.png[/img] on the main menu, and you can no longer earn steam achievements.[/QUOTE] Does doing so also disable the associated in-game achievements as well or is it only Steam Achievements? If it's just the latter that won't solve anything since people could just do the in-game unlock and then use SAM to award themselves the corresponding achievement. Also RIP people who used that Lost-improvement mod that makes the character less of a painful ordeal and actually into a fun challenge.

they nerfed the bomb spiders but not the lumps?? The lumps are all everyone complains about. at this point I'm convinced they seriously believe there's nothing wrong with them. Christ they need to sort that shit already. oh well at least keys aren't bullshit in hard more anymore.
And nothing has been done about those garbage red poop rooms in the chest yet.
Currently I've got a strange "Son of Rambo" run going with Samson, Soy Milk, Pisces, and the Toothpicks. Helluva lotta fire-rate but not a lotta damage boosts yet. Hopefully that'll change soon...
it's not damage boost you want it's attack modifiers like ipecac, splash attacks, charm etc
Well I got a technical damage boost thanks to 20/20, so now the Son of Rambo is going guns akimbo. (oh god it's like two strings of pearls it's shooting so fast) Also I got Experimental Treatment (no idea what it shifted other than giving me a Heart Container), then got the Goat Head and Rotten Baby from Old Man Satan.
flies arent nerfed from what i can tell [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/3RgkWJb.png[/IMG]
Damn, I think Cursed Eye stuck Son of Rambo's guns on 4-round burst. Poor kid lost his M60s and has to deal with Mac-10s for the rest of the run. Challenge accepted, McMillen!
i walked into It Lives' room with infestation 2 shot and i had like 20 spiders around me, and they instantly rushed It Lives and killed it before my Ipecac shot landed. infestation 2 op

Tbh, I think it was the Cursed Eye that threw off his groove. [B]Palace Guard:[/B] I'm sorry, but you've thrown off the Son of Rambo's groove... [B]Cursed Eye:[/B] *gets thrown out of window* [I]ssssoooorrrrryyyy........[/I] Now all I need is to find Mom's Knife as Samson, and I'll be able to go all Brock Lobster. Speaking of which, here's an idea for a thing that probably won't get put into the next expansion; the ability to build a custom character/challenge via a points system. You'd start out with a set number of points to put into your starting health, stats and starting items, though you'll only really have enough to make a character point-equivalent to Isaac with the D6 at the start, with the ability to add various challenge modifiers to give you additional points to invest. However as you put more coins into the Donation Machine, every dozen or so coins your starting pool of points increases by 1, plus each regular challenge you complete will give you a point or two to invest in your custom challenges. So after you've played a bunch of regular Rebirth and regular challenges, you'll have a larger base pool and would be able to load more items on without having to turn on as many challenge modifiers.
-snip-
Now that I think of it, this totally needs a challenge/seed editor where you can create your own custom floors and upload them to the cloud for others to play, just for fun, a la super meat world. Of course youll be able to rate the maps so you can avoid playing horrible/troll levels.
Well I'm definitely having fun with Samson. Went to Hell, bought the T-shirt, beat up Uncle Satan and unlocked Judas. Huh, so that's where he was hiding all this time. I guess when Isaac went into the box, he bargained with the unspeakable and made a Pact. All he has to do now is stay away from Guts and Skull Knight.
this is literally the worst idea ever [img_thumb]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/34105835752877288/9BE60AA68FA8F3563F036FF4F81E92E037C5308F/[/img_thumb]
But... how? Did you input BASE MENT and keep on going?

What the hell did you do.
[QUOTE=mattmanlex;46687736][url]http://platinumgod.co.uk/darkbum/not[/url][/QUOTE] In all honesty, I haven't had too much trouble with new Dark Bum so far. Only on rare occasions did I get red spiders from him, otherwise I get my fill of Spirit Hearts and a few blue spiders.
[QUOTE=mattmanlex;46687736][url]http://platinumgod.co.uk/darkbum/not[/url][/QUOTE] I have never gotten spiders from this guy, didnt even know about that til just now
All this means for me is "You need to get good, knife".
i made a downloadable mod of the angel room i had in my previous post. [url=http://www.mediafire.com/download/t9w82ref8u74rrn/01.basement.rar]download here[/url] before that room is a room full of item pedestals, a D6, and batteries. see if you can beat it? note: make sure you read the text file, and use the seed "6V1RYD77" for the right setup. oh and play on normal
In other news, RNG god blessed me. Got to cursed room in the first room, first red chest teleported me to satan room, there are zombie baby, guppy head, red chest. In red chest there was guppy's tail. Got it, bought guppy head for one heart, used it, rerolled the whole room since i played as isaac. Guppy head turned into a brimstone and zombie baby turned into guppy's collar. So now i am guppy with brimstone on first floor. [t]http://cs625818.vk.me/v625818625/e5f3/OMhqvfmOUSQ.jpg[/t]
Seriously fuck this game. I did 3 no damage runs on the last floor when the game got released and didn't get dead boy. Now I can't fucking do it again, I just completed a run and got hurt ONE fucking time by blue baby ruining it. Some people say its bugged and get it even after taking damage, or retroactively by just completing the chest/dark room, but I guess I have no such look. Maybe I'll get it eventually with the lost, if I EVER get near doing a complete no damage run, seriously I don't know how people do it, I even get hurt with the stop watch at least once or twice per run.
Something not said in the patch notes for those of us controller players: Pressing X/A to skip the boss intro cutscene (Isaac Vs Boss) no longer makes you fire a tear downward! Finally no more accidental ipecac damage. I know this because I have ipecac right now and it no longer fires a tear when you skip the boss intro, yay!
Beat Cat Got Your Tounge on no jokes my [I]first[/I] attempt. Remaining are Beans!, Life Gives you Lemons, (Glass Cannon, Family Man are locked) and Purist. Beans and lemons both look like boring challenges, GC and Family Man look fun and purist looks slightly strugglesome
