I think the new Baitface mask fits the game's "style" more (whatever the fuck that means now). I don't dislike it, but it's hard to even give them an inch of praise after the Completely Overkill Pack disaster. What really tweaks me about this whole thing is that I can't get a refund for the COP, even though they falsely advertised it. [I]Nothing but cosmetics[/I], and yet. Here we are.
Just, wow.
So people who put down some extra dosh to show their support for overkill or were just actually interested in a unique cosmetic just had someone spit in their face with a random skin for a gun you might never use that looks awful to boot does make me lose the will to protest with a 2000 word essay.
It's just dumb, just actually dumb, like I don't feel it needs to even be articulated any more than that. It is the dumbest thing and I'd very much like to meet these people in person to tell them how dumb it is yet despite the fact their company is in no risk of going under this reeks of desperation or outright laziness.

I just logged in to finally get my COD, got one for the fucking [I]bow,[/I] and promptly put mine up for $400
if this ever sells that'd be fucking hilarious but it's just about the only one of it's quality on the market

Goddamn, disturbing the peace on all weapons. That's a pretty big change.
Why the fuck are shotguns still firing fucking nerf darts though? I would've expected that to be the first thing they fixed.
I finally said "fuck it". I wrote a negative review on Steam, left the PD2 community, replaced my "great soundtrack", "fun" and "co-op" tags with only "microtransactions", and I've bitched about current status of PD2 in various subforums of other games. Anyone got any other ideas how to "protest" (maybe a bit too strong word) the game other than traveling to Stockholm and throwing some rotten eggs at their office?
Edit: Oh I just remembered. Some official dude at OVK (might have been Almir) had a Reddit thread asking suggestions to infamy bonuses. I suggested being able give some of your extra experience to your team mates (like your exp bonus is halved, your buddies get + X% bonus, toggled ability). I'm not saying I was the only one with that idea (PDTH has something similar), but I can't but wonder if they were about to improve Infamy with the team exp bonus and said "why don't we use this feature to get even more money?"

Now we know what that payday phone thing will be
I got the hype train thanatos with team and stat boosts, going for 10.50 atm
I just hope it sells.
Waitwaitwait. On the Weapon rebalance beta update notes, it says that ammo pickups have been increased across the board. What stood out from there was the line "Weapons with high total ammo counts will benefit the most." So regarding this, how will this affect A) The minigun, which had a terrible ammo pick-up rate. And B) All LMG-s, will they become even more meta now?
the shitstorm got back on reddit,and so does the peoples who think you're actively supporting OVK by playing the game.

Probably. For me right now the only weapon that's fun to use is the LMG. If I'm gonna be inaccurate and ridiculously unstable I might aswell have a almost infinite supply of ammo that I can shoot really fast dudes.
Remember that time when i said things could get worse?
[QUOTE=KennyAwsum;48978934]lmao people thought it was rock bottom with hype train but there ain't no limit to the sea floor.[/QUOTE]
Oh well, i really didn't want to be right. I knew it would be shitty, i didn't know it would be as sleazy as direct EXP and Money Buffs.
I ain't no fucking nostradamus but it's probably gonna get worse until people literally stop buying (or selling for "profits")on overkill's shit.
Since when has StickStones BreakBones day 2 had Courier packages? They were even in semi-legit positions, so I doubt any of the players cheated them in.

LMGs might actually be less meta. Remember, LMGs aren't required for panic anymore.

Who wouldn't be? Atleast they have the humor to keep things going, albeit sarcastically, even in shitty times like these.

IIRC there were positions programmed in, but they left out the thing that would actually make the packages show up

It's a meme of sorts. Instead of saying Hoxton Breakout you say something vaguely similar like: HabboHotel Breakfast, Hobotown Crackout, etc. You can also just go wild and say completely random shit i.e Stickstones Breakbones.
Edit: rip automerg
i love memes
ew memes
don't be disgusted, you're not down with the kids!
old man!!
IMO memes are more tolerable than puns... at least that's what I think the people I talk to have come to believe now.
I call hotline miami, "Hotdogging my nanny 2: right number"
i throw up used memes into a bucket and mail it to overkill
sorry

Technically it's not random shit since it's simply abbreviated from:
'Sticks and stones will break my bones
But words will never harm me.'
Also it has [I]Break [/I] in the correct place in it, I expected better from you Facepunch.
I think the game simply fucked up and spawned the packages. Have to see if that happens again. Also had a Cloaker down our only bot out of bounds during an Aftershock game.

[QUOTE]Hello everyone,
Colt and I are pretty sad about this announcement, as we love you guys. You've been fucking AWESOME to us for the duration of our mod, and we would love to continue to work on this project. Unfortunately, Overkill has not been awesome, and we can't continue to support a game that won't support its community of players or modders. And as such we're halting all development for the forseeable future to stand with the community. So until the day comes where Overkill will listen to anything any of us have to say, the previous version of BSR will be the final version. That being said, we love you guys, and we will continue to support you, so if there's anything any of you need/want, don't hesitate to ask us, and we'll do our best to make it happen.We still have a shit load of DLC, so we'll figure some way to give that out to everyone soon.
It's been a hell of a ride, everyone, and we can't thank you enough for your support.
- Quas, Colt .45 Killer, and Zenriot. [/QUOTE]

It doesn't work that way
Hoxhud's dev and the guy that made the OG .yml hook, Olipro, made an announcement too
[QUOTE]Hey Folks,
As you're all no doubt aware, there has been a significant uprising against the recent actions taken by Overkill towards implementing micro transactions and the Completely Overkill Pack rewards.
We at HoxHud remain hopeful that Overkill will address this issue to the satisfaction of the community and consequently will not be taking any action just yet and, should we ever come to that unfortunate situation, we'll be deciding what to do based on your feedback.
Nonetheless, we do support the decisions of both the official forum moderators and other modders who took issue with the current state of things and decided to protest or otherwise take action. We hope that it proves to be a fleeting scar in the history and legacy of this game.
Cheers,
Olipro[/QUOTE]
We all expected the COP pack to be a disappointing weapon case but the fact that they still put weapon quality is atrocious. The only reason weapon quality exists is so they can force players to go back and buy more cases and keys, but this was literally the only one we could get. (unless we spent 500 dollars on the steam market of course)
