So apparently Valve is putting stricter rules to their Early Access program, and one of the new ideas is to not put a game on Early Access if it is almost finished on only there for bug testing.
Do you guy think this will stop Tripwire from putting KF2 on EA? They said they wanted to put it up after it was almost finalized. I think they might have to send out beta keys outside of steam or something instead.

They said they'll put it out when they have little, but well polished content ready.
Poster at SA got this from PAX:
[QUOTE]They don't want early access to be beta testing or alpha testing. They want to have a feature complete thing before they launch it on early access. The example given was complete like 2 or so perks and just a few maps and let the community speak on balances or things to change while the rest of the team is working on the unfinished stuff. Then they want to add to that every so often so that the game is still released over time but make sure that every part added is complete to the point where it doesn't feel like an early piece of shit.

honestly from what we've seen the game looks pretty complete to me
just a matter of bugfixing, netcoding, balance, shit like that.

We've only seen a very small handful of maps and weapons. There's still a lot to be added before it could be a final game.

Preview material can be very deceptive in regards to what state the game is in. I've seen pleanty of fancy-looking pre-release material for games, then saw that the prototypes compiled around the time the materials were taken are completely busted.
To me, most of the screenshots released look very posed. It's telling that the first actual in-game footage we've seen with things being shot and the like have "alpha footage" and lack things like a HUD. The game might look good in preview screenshots and carefully-recorded videos, but in reality the game is far from being complete.
I mean, faking something like the Meet the Zeds video isn't that hard. It could be very possible that say, the Stalker's model was just finished two or so weeks prior to the video she was in and they cleaned up animations that would look good, then have them play in a prettied-up version of KF2's Bioticslabs. However, as an actual enemy, the Stalker might've been completely broken with things like bad decloaking timing, broken animations, getting stuck in the scenery while doing her attacks, and her behavior being a copy-paste of the Clot's.

I feel like Army of Darkness 3 needs to be constantly quoted every time firing that gun.
I just got level 6 Berserker so I'm finally now trying to decide what to level next. I never really played SS much and the HSG-1 feels pretty awesome to use.
Here's hoping that the blunt melee weapons can break bones like in Dead Island. And at least as nasty sounds for when it happens.

Seeing a Fleshpound with a ragdolled arm would be hilarious.

Or a scrake with a floppy chainsaw arm, flailing about and decapitating other specimens.
I feel like the new rules for EA, big companies that aren't going to scam the community out of money like Tripwire with KF2, will probably have a little more leeway because they're actually going to finish the project, instead of provide fake concept art they never intend on putting into the game (see stomping land)

Yeah, I think it's more to catch the projects that don't intent to come out. Tripwire is big enough that that's not really a worry.
Several custom Zed names, like "Plant", "Crimson", "Mimicry", "Sick", "Bastard", and "Female", are awesome. It's like they're taken straight from a poorly-translated early 90s jRPG.

I would go with the bayonette and the C4.
i bet the mosin will win
I want that Kar 98, but that's just because i play as Herman the German all the damn time. I'd also like a bolt action rifle that's more powerful than a LAR but slower firing and has a scope rather than the grenade launcher.
Also i think the FB needs some love so how about a longbow that fires flame arrows for precision hits at range, high impact damage and burn but no splash or stun so you can single out targets in a crowd for a burning.
And fuck it, cause i love the ww2 stuff, MG42 for the commando. Fit it in as a M99 kind of weapon, high damage high rate of fire, but expensive as fuck has say 200 rounds only with no reload and weight is 12 so you can only carry an extra pistol.
Has anyone ever survived going to sandbox and setting every enemy type to the patriarch?
I've done it once on beginner with some friends but only because every patriarch eventually froze and didn't count as alive, so it turned into a hide and seek game to find the real patriarch and kill him.

Poundamonium on farm was always a good laugh with 100000's of pipe bombs scattered across the map.

I wish they'd at least put this on steam without anything to buy yet so I'd have something to keep an eye on.

Along with a new map and that's it... I am serious no new character or a dlc weapon pack (which could be good)? but I am disappointed there no new dlc character that has some amazing voice lines or what not. Oh well at least kf2 is coming out soon and that will be amazing to my eyes.

I guess (and hope) that TW working on KF2 is why they haven't released that much new content for this game lately.

Thanks, but I don't want more "premium" characters or weapon re-skin on Kiling Floor.
i'm pretty sure they made end of the line for a reason guys

That's fine by me but we should have at least gotten a new halloween ach character this year a long with a new holiday ach character and not the same Santa one from the previous years, plus wasn't some community making a weapon pack of some sort? Anyways all we have to do is wait for kf2 than the time will come.
I'm rather fine with not having some unlockable cosmetic character-which there already loads of-and community weapons that I will never buy to clutter up the trader screen.
