How do you get into beta? I want to try out the campaign

Search it on steam, it's 'Loadout Campaign Beta', a separate download from the main game

oh. They could have included a separate beta branch instead
Here's the quality rank:
[B]Normal--Green--Blue--Purple--Orange (MAX)[/B]
I'm thinking of getting back into this game, but I haven't played/followed the game since around the beginning of the year.
Anything I should know?
By the way what do y'all think about the PVE? I'm having more fun that I ever had on Loadout.
my only complaint is that the level progression is really out there, I'm still level 8 and have completed everything on my level, so I gotta do stuff that has twice my level and I can't use the stuff I drop there.

Pve is fun but as people have said they need to be less bullet sponge and what not plus fix the grenades and turrets.
The gun parts from drops system feels much nicer than the regular just use gun and gain level for it and parts system.

Aliens are bullet sponges
The issue is that weapon damage is all over the place as it stands. A lot of combos now can 1shot kill, whilst other combos still don't have acceptable DPS
The generally lower TTK made a lot more combos viable. Some are maybe a bit too viable (shell loading sniper rifles for starters, also TriBarrel launchers capable of 1-2 shotting and 1shotting CAGE launchers)
Ideally this TTK should reward dodging instead of proper tracking, as tracking for a lot of time isn't much needed anymore
Wow, [I]wow[/I] by the time you get to 'hard' levels on tier 3, enemies just start to do ridiculous amounts of damage.

Got to level up a lot more or use instagib weapons
Also I kinda like PvP with short TTK
Well I found a new problem in PvE, if you kill too much people will get angry at you.

Now I remember why I never play PvP. They want you to feel like a bad person. I joined in 3vs3, it was on lobby, 2 disconnected, match starts and I'm alone with 2 bots against 3 players in a Jackhammer battle, I was doing good even if I was going to lose because the bots barely do something. Time is over, I lost and one of the players started to call me camper and stuff.
I would avoid PvP but the fact you can easily lockboxes and experience there I feel forced going there. Sorry for ranting but I'm getting tired of not being able to enjoy this game without someone using his mouth for say annoying things.

Isn't that every multiplayer game ever?
Also just ignore them?

Yeah, I can ignore them, it's just something that really bothers me inside.
Also, I realized with the 4500 spacebux you get in total in the mission is enough to buy the cosmetics I wanted before:

Well actually I need 4600, but that can be fixed with steam trading cards.

For the time being I'm using Spacebux to get some decent gear, but I was planning to put some money down for the game anyways. At least the spacebux will be a healthy boost
The fusion seems to be worthless. Any higher level item will be better than Fusion-ed to the Max item.

You will end up some point at such situation where your inventory is max and fusioning stuff then becomes a must.
Fusing items also increases their value, should you fuse them later on
I always found it bit weird how you can't change your weapons' colours, I mean the game's gimmick is customizable weapons but yet that isn't in it.
[QUOTE=coverop;46046716]The fusion seems to be worthless. Any higher level item will be better than Fusion-ed to the Max item.[/QUOTE]
How do you fuse stuff, no matter what I put in the 4 boxes I can never fuse. Do the items need to be the same level?
Played a bit of campaign. I like it, but less mlgpronoscope AI behavior would be welcome. I was shot multiple times through a tiny gap between walls when running randomly. Doesn't occur often, but still.
[QUOTE=Excalibuurr;46049854]You need to put an item in the middle. :v:[/QUOTE]
Oh my fucking god...
I thought that's where the fused item would appear.
[QUOTE=Electrocuter;46051877]Oh my fucking god...

Yeah that is what I first thought too, fuse 4 random items together and get one random item.
If there's a reason to complain about PVP is that it's full of one-hit kill weapons now, was just in a Jackhammer match where all the enemy team did was camp our base with one-hit kill snipers, not even headshots, just bodyshots.
Yeah PvP scaling is currently broken, same for experience scaling. So for now avoid PvP until that gets fixed.
[B]Edit:[/B] You know how much the game hates you when you spend 15 minutes in Blitz thanks to a grenadier and you are 30 seconds close to win the game freezes and leaves you with no loot drop after picking up a lot of those including lockboxes. GOD DAMMIT!
Why do some people have fancy sombreros? Where does one get one?
[QUOTE=Combine 177;46055059]Why do some people have fancy sombreros? Where does one get one?[/QUOTE]
It's a loot drop from the locked boxes I believe. It's one of the sombreros that the pve enemies wear.
