[QUOTE=CompanionMube;46240267]the timer probably just resets every time get in a new level[/QUOTE] I hadn't actually considered that. I can imagine that the timer being segmented in such a way is so that speedrunners can work with splits instead of making rough approximations on when milestones are reached. However, Ed did mention that there was to be some reward for going fast. Fast through the game and fast through the floor are two different things, so it'd be a bit weird to be removing the overall timer if there's still something potentially important waiting at the end. Unless he's changed that particular secret to be a per-floor basis, in which case it'll be pretty easy to get by getting a lucky spawn or holding an Emperor card. Not to mention the timer icon that appears during stage interludes, there is some form of overarching time mechanic that spans the full-game. So why the timer would be resetting each floor is beyond me.

First item Lard. Get a bunch of other hp upgrades and spirit hearts. Awesome! Die to Gemini super early because I move too slow.

[QUOTE=reevezy67;46248080]First item Lard. Get a bunch of other hp upgrades and spirit hearts. Awesome! Die to Gemini super early because I move too slow.[/QUOTE] That's usually why I start with a faster character, so if Lard rears its blubbery head, I at least have a bit more speed to work with. Trading speed for health might sound alright, but it's all for naught if you can't outrun since even with the brief after-hit invincibility a single enemy could take away your health pretty quickly, I think like 1 hit a second or whatever. It's even worse if you don't have the firepower to get them off your fat arse quick enough.

Got a speed down pill and something else that reduced my speed. Tried to fight a boss that was much faster than me. Even bigger and sadder problem was, that I had the Cursed Skull and the Polaroid (had the purse). I couldn't land a hit on an enemy without him catching up to me, hurting me which activated the shield and then teleported me out of the room. For some reason, I wasn't losing hearts. I would get touched, not lose any hearts, shield then teleport. It was an endless loop, until after about 30 retrys I finally quit the game. sad day

that is why i never take lard

[QUOTE=Erfly;46255109]Just posted on twitter by Tyrone.[/QUOTE] New trinket, new boss, new item. No details about any of them. Not much to go off of from here.

Yikes, that thing appears to have a minigun for a dick. Either that or a big gray maggot. Both are disturbing in their own way.

[QUOTE=ironman17;46260320]Yikes, that thing appears to have a minigun for a dick. Either that or a big gray maggot. Both are disturbing in their own way.[/QUOTE] I think if you let that thing come anywhere near you, you would be completely screwed.

Especially if it was both. That's right, a minigun maggot wang that shoots other smaller maggots at a horrifying rate. H.R Giger would be so jazzed if he were still with us.

looks like a phillips screw head to me

Speaking of Tyrone. [url]http://vine.co/v/OqQXMbWuJW7[/url] Okay so media tags don't work for vines, good to know. He's in the debug mode so not much can really be certain since he could do anything to throw us off. He seems to have Fetus in a Jar and E Coli. The spacebar item seems grant invulnerability that ends with a big explosion. Seems a bit odd to put on a 1-room recharge, I'm guessing that it maybe does something else. My best guess is that it grants a temporary E. Coli effect and then detonates based on how many poops are made. He gave himself invulnerability to show just how ridiculous it can get and also so he doesn't get mauled by the moshpit of Gapers surrounding him. Also the entire purpose of that vine is to show off Rebirth at 60 frames a second and to tease the masses once more.

After resetting my save (Didn't want to mix up my stats with my friend's, who got his own copy since), I got my first ever mom kill on my first ever try after said reset. But, for some reason, stats screen says DEATHS: 1 MOM KILLS: 0 Even though I have all the right items unlocked, and Isaac standing on his mother in the main menu. What gives?

Mom Kills are only incremented when you clear the Mom's Heart boss fight.

Well. I sold all my cards and TF2 items for Rebirth. Worth it.

There was some more stuff posted on Tyrone's twitter. Surprised nobody posted it. A tease of the menu opening: [url]http://www.vine.co/v/ObajOpJJ1K9[/url] The new famine, complete with EYES, from a shitty phone pic: [img]http://i.imgur.com/COpR6xM.jpg?1[/img] And Tyrone also said todays update will be a good one. Wonder what happened to Ed, though. He's stopped the Q&A answering a week ago after saying he had some sort of family emergency. Hopefully it's nothing too bad. Might've just stopped because the games getting close to release and he doesn't want to spoil anything more or something.

She's fine now in any case.

Videos and what seems likely to be a coop live stream are about to happen. [url]http://www.twitch.tv/tyronerodriguez[/url] [url]https://twitter.com/tyronerodriguez/status/524380765422104576[/url] [url]http://www.youtube.com/user/nicalisinc/videos[/url] (video will most likely be uploaded here once ready) get READY. Tyrone is in the twitch chat right now and the videos are currently uploading so it's gonna happen real soon. EDIT: Well at least it better. Some people are claiming the stream starts at 3AM EST but I'm about to fall asleep fffff He's with spider, the guy that made spidermod, so that's probably who his coop partner will be. And yeah he confirmed he's in charge of tonight's update. Edmund is still out. Also nobody posted this but here's a twitter pic of Tyrone's from last week: [img]http://i.imgur.com/SWTrTsh.png?1[/img]

I know that icon's supposed to be a block of spikes but it looks absolutely horrible at looking like anything sharp. It looks more like the room is a place to play checkers. The old icon looked odd if you didn't know it was supposed to be blood spatter, but they could've done something similar to at least get the idea across that the room's about sacrifice and not board games.

Right well Tyrone just confirmed the stream starts at 3AM EST so i'm going to SLEEP then.

Boom boom! Baby! [video=youtube;bifRQjFMhPo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bifRQjFMhPo[/video] [video=youtube;3VvW9P5WZjc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VvW9P5WZjc[/video] Hidden video: [video=youtube;6zxu7awkWnA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zxu7awkWnA[/video] [editline]20th October 2014[/editline] Analysis time. Old bombs being back are nothing surprising. Bobby Bomb gives bombs a windup key to resemble Bobombs. Crying Bomb, emits a Tammy-styled attack when detonated. We get to see Wiggle Worm in action, and are reminded that it stacks with all tear effects as we see it affect the bomb tears. Stinkbomb does low damage to all enemies in the room and temporarily confuses them. Napalm bombs leave a fire behind. The fire cannot be put out with tears and you are immune to contact damage from it. The fire will extinguish over time. We see a secret room boarded off of the Lust miniboss room. Upon clearing the miniboss, the barricade falls apart. Also the door that you came in through becomes boarded. Perhaps it's exclusively a miniboss thing, perhaps he had an item that we didn't see. It seems to easy to make the secret room so readily available, there's got to be a catch. Spike traps can retract their spikes similar to the floor spikes that we saw retract much earlier at PAX. Also that leech seen in the previous Mega Fatty screenshot was a familiar, similar to Little Chubby. Isaac also appears to have an item that gives him a ridiculously long fire rate for a bit, and then a rapid fire attack for a short bit. He doesn't appear to be charging it like brimstone. My guess is that this is the item that's covering Isaac's right eye as the tears seem to be coming out of that side of his head exclusively. That's all for tonight. I'm too tired to stay up for the stream, so I'll pick the VOD apart in the morning.

Whew, only two weeks left.

[QUOTE=Psychopath12;46290840]It seems too easy to make the secret room so readily available, there's got to be a catch.[/QUOTE] I think secret rooms stay open forever now after you've opened them, he probably just found it earlier.

New Isaac's voice sample is pretty damn annoying

No VOD? darn

[QUOTE=VintageCat;46293065]New Isaac's voice sample is pretty damn annoying[/QUOTE] Same with the tear sounds, they're kind of obnoxious

[QUOTE=Max;46293075]No VOD? darn[/QUOTE] Good thing people recorded it. [video=youtube;zpnjRg-Gqwc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpnjRg-Gqwc[/video] Brb picking it apart.
