So is D100 from what I've discovered, and that's easier to find.
[QUOTE=AlphaAGENT;49051457]Heart and Masks makes me seriously consider uninstalling sometimes, it's like they all work together to corner trap you and just gut you mercilessly.
I can be doing a full-on no damage floor and lose 4 hearts to masks and their bullshit.[/QUOTE]
A combination of the masks being way too fast, the hearts taking a relatively long time to kill, the hearts shooting tears of their own, because why not; these guys aren't bullshit enough to deal with already and the fact that they almost always appear in sets of 4 [I]and[/I] in rooms with reduced maneuverability make the masks almost guaranteed damage whenever I encounter them.
i just had a really intense fight with mega satan that reminded me why i love fighting it so much
everything about the fight is just so cool - the music, the arena, even the name "mega satan" is brutal as fuck
like imagine satan, the literal personification of evil and unholiness
now imagine a MEGA version of that
it's so great
That's kind of why I'm so disappointed that [sp]Hush[/sp] is the "true" final boss. You just can't beat the pure hype that MEGA SATAN radiates.

I respectfully disagree. The fucking music buildup on the [sp]blue womb[/sp] is so good, and the boss fight music is easily top 3 in the game. That and the scaling health, bullet patterns, etc. make it my favorite fight in the game by a wide margin. Shit gets me pumped.

I honestly think he'll end up being a normal boss.
Crazy, I know.

I'd still argue the room with four turrets and four walking hosts from the caves is worse. They're constantly covering eachothers' patterns and forcing you to slowly backpedal away from them in circles until the one at the front of the group pops up, all the while trying to avoid the turret fire and make sure you don't get cornered on one of the edges.
The reason I'd say it's worse is because it's a room which occurs in [I]caves 1[/I]. By that point you probably still don't have much in the way of a good synergy or even good stats, so you're just tediously chipping away at them for anywhere between one and three minutes depending on your build. That room kills boss rush chances dead.

I consider whatever gives the newest canon ending the final boss.
How does that trick for the lost work where you exit the game so you don't have to start all over again?
[QUOTE=The Combine;49052563]How does that trick for the lost work where you exit the game so you don't have to start all over again?[/QUOTE]
I think they patched quitting on death. That or I'm really bad at pulling it off.
It just occurred to me that (character spoilers) [sp]the Keeper[/sp] people are talking about probably is [sp]Saint Peter and not the shop keeper.
The old man on the menu dataminers found resembles him.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Fapplejack;49052574]I think they patched quitting on death. That or I'm really bad at pulling it off.[/QUOTE]
You ctrl+alt+delete and shut it down that way. Not just hit the exit button on the top. Do make sure you at least saved once before so you don't lose progress obviously.
[QUOTE=Biotoxsin;49051836]The item Missing No. is absolutely ridiculous on greed runs.[/QUOTE]
D4 is even moreso.
Buy any and every item you can indiscriminately. Use a vendor selling batteries and just reroll until you get a game-breaking combo. My most recent one was one that had Tech-X beams along with Dunce cap where they looped around the room and made me feel like some sort of Bullet Hell Boss.Plus after a bunch of those rerolls you'll have a cool 12 red hearts to use on more devil deals.
Man today's daily run was a drag, I was on the verge of quitting.
whelp nowhere to go but down in life

think imma kill myself now anyone wanna come with
Does killing Mega Satan seriously only unlock recolors of the same dumb coop-baby for every character?
Like it's bad enough that they're practically useless for 99% of all players, but then they also look about as exciting as stale bread and don't have any special abilities whatsoever. Disappointing doesn't even begin to describe it.
[B]Gonna be posting a big text that Edmund posted on reddit(as a thread), Contains alot of explanation about what and how happened with the content and such.[/B]
Note: this isnt a debate thread, im going to post this here and leave it in hopes i can address a few things without spoiling anything else for those that care.
i wont be responding to comments or reading them.
im sure most of you read my tweets explaining what happened with the latest updates addition of missing items. you can believe what you want,
but i assure you most of the misconceptions causing issue revolve around stuff i cant address yet as well as random chance and the fact that we probably shouldn't have tossed the update up on he 109 hour when it was done on 108..
we thought we were having fun with your obsession with the number 109 but in the end it imploded and i woke up to the most confusing and jaw dropping barrage of tweets ive ever seen.
the basic facts: (there will some holes that will be filled in on a later blog post )
the missing items were tied to a bug and a few other launch build issues and not at all intended to be missing from the game.
we werent aware of the missing items at all for a few days after launch, thought they werent found yet or locked
, it wasnt till i started testing with my debug steam copy that i saw that quite a few items were just gone from the game completely.
i tried to address this without breaking the 4th wall on twitter and even showed 2 items so people knew the game for sure features 120+ but it ended up sending people down another path that i tried to stop by tweeting for people to not assume anything..
but the snowball kept rolling
everyone was off for 2 days after the launch and day 1 patch so there wasnt anything we could do till tuesday.
we had the patch fixed roughly 1-2 hours before we put it up but thought it would be fun to post it on the day associated with the donation machine bug that people seemed obsessed over so people didnt lose interest in exploring the unknown...
hoping that people would see the 109 hour as more of a start of something than finish.. but sadly we all know how it ended.
i really didnt care that much about the datamining and honestly dont see it at as an issue at this point.. i like to joke about stuff that ive find annoying or disheartening and it comes through really bad via text.
im not remotely a petty person, i know you dont know me personally but its just not at all something in me..
and i sure as hell wouldnt attempt to fuck over a fan base..
i mean shit i made this dlc with the fans in mind, 10-15% of the games content was made by you guys..
its just illogical to think i would try to upset or lie to a group of people i reach out to for feedback and ideas.
anyway like i said, the small holes in this story (that i know for a fact more than a few of you know the reasons for) will all be addressed in a postmortem of what i can almost call a social experiment at this point will eventually see the light of day..
one day.
again thanks for those of you who are logical and have become the voice of reason in a few of these threads, you guys give me hope.
i realize that quite a few of you feel slighted by large companies when it comes to content and manipulation.. but not everyone is the devil dudes and sometimes you find what appears to be logical in simple coincidences.

[B]Another one about bugs and such[/B]
i wanted to make a new thread for the latest patch since a lot was fix/changed/edited in it and we need a clear picture of what is wrong so we can address it in the next update.
i also want to point out a few things so everything is clear. DO NOT RESPOND TO THESE THINGS HERE, make another thread about how much you hate me or how much of a liar i am,
or choose one of the ones that exist currently to address them, this is a bug thread so we can improve the game.
the Az nerf wasnt intended to be a double nerf, his damage will go back to normal in the next update but we did nerf his charge time (he was by far the most op character and needed to be toned down for a few reasons i can address later)
lilith got a nerf because she was obviously nuts when it came to greed mode,
i know this makes her less appealing in the normal game and we may find a way to address this in the update..
but honestly i dont think its a huge deal, shes a lot better than most people think she is.
i dont see many issue with the other edits/tunes of existing items but dont be surprised if we nerf things a bit if they become one item combos or have giant holes in them design wise.
becoming OP is always something i want to make sure can happen, but it shouldnt happen every time...
anywho ill probably do another post addressing some of my tweets just to clear things up as much as possible.
i really gotta thank all the people who kept calm and thought logically about everything, you guys really give me hope and we all really appreciate the voice of reason popping in when we are sleeping ;)
Formatting is a bit lazy but here are the threads on reddit.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;49053172]doesn't the game save when paused[/QUOTE]
Not that I have seen. It only saves you when go back to title screen, go to a new floor OR close out with the X if I remember correctly.
I didn't really play BoI rebirth that much when it came out (I did play alot on the 3ds), but lately i've really been getting into it with afterbirth.
I've really been enjoying it
I had a run with Epic Fetus and Technology, the explosion of fetus creates an 8 way laser shot a bit like tammy
I had plans to kill the first stage of hush with the laser only and check if the main hush would have only a bit of HP. Halfway through I decided fuck it and blasted the baby with one shot, which I regret because I managed to die in the fight :v:
also I wanted to do one OP run with each character and get both hush and mega satan in one go. I realized I'll just want to fuckin kill myself that way and it's better to have two runs, one without devil deals for mega satan and one with devil deals for the hush.
Anyone know how effective mom's knife is against hush?
[QUOTE=Davoc;49054154]Anyone know how effective mom's knife is against hush?[/QUOTE]
I beat hush with mom's knife as the lost so i am qualified to tell you that it is as fun as masturbating with steel wool.
Most of the time you can't even hit him, and because hush more or less takes the same amount of damage from any source yer pretty fucked

One thing about Afterbirth that's really great imo is the daily run, it's really nice for friends.
[URL="http://i.imgur.com/uw252St.jpg"]Not so great globally though.[/URL]

He's hacking right? Isn't there a new steam rule that let Devs basically ban people if they're obviously cheating? or does that only apply to VAC servers ?

Yeah but I'm pretty sure the devs wouldn't want to have to check every daily run for cheaters.
If I remember correctly they said they're working on something to help prevent cheating/detect them.

this is where that door unlocking feature comes in handy iirc. Doors just open after awhile if you can't kill everything in the room.
