Neat. When's the console/portable version of afterbirth due? Any word?
[QUOTE=comet1337;49099924]lol what i started fighting haunt killed the first lil haunt, boss music stops same happened for the other 2 now it's post-boss music while fighting haunt proper[/QUOTE] I believe there was issues with the lil' haunts screwing up the boss fight, so this is a side effect of the work around put in place to ensure that beating the haunt always counts as a win.
IIRC you could make the fight unwinnable by using the friendly ball on one of them, and the fix broke the audio triggers.
[QUOTE=VietRooster2;49098577]Probably getting incredibly lucky and finding two Steam Sales, basically making everything in the shop free, along with Restock making items keep appearing. And am I the only one who thinks Ultra Greed was fine as is? I mean, maybe he was a little too easy before but he wasn't a complete pushover. This buff is ridiculous, even with a "gamebreaking" build he takes forever to kill.[/QUOTE] Actually I used a strategy someone posted on Reddit. First you restart until you get blank card. Continue playing until you find a "Two of diamonds" card in a shop, and then pray for a battery to be for sale somewhere. That's really all it takes to achieve this chaos. I had a really awesome octuple rocket barrage armageddon going at one point, which set everything on fire and sent out thousands of lasers in all directions, but then I picked up ludovico technique and the synergies got erased. It helped me keep Greed in position though for easy chaos card kills using strange attractor. Every other boss in the game would've instantly gotten annihilated by simply touching me, but Ultra Greed's HP scaling is so ridiculous that it barely hurt him at all.

Some new achievements have shown up. [img]http://i.imgur.com/NIApNxq.png[/img] In respective order: Obvious. Mega Blast. It lasts for 15 seconds and drastically kills your movement. Those 15 seconds can carry over into future rooms and floors if you're fast enough. Store key is the trinket that [sp]The Keeper[/sp] starts with. It lets Isaac enter shops without consuming a key. I dunno. We still dunno what's up with the hanging shopkeepers. Greed only gets harder once you've donate enough now. Duh.
Looks like we're gettin' the keeper.
[QUOTE=Psychopath12;49102989]I dunno. We still dunno what's up with the hanging shopkeepers.[/QUOTE] Doesn't that add shopkeepers with nickels and dimes in their eyes to shops, secret rooms and vaults?
Finally! Making the Lost start with Holy Mantle will make him a viable character to play outside achievements, but I wonder what the unlock criteria will be... Makes me glad I gave up on beating Ultra Greed with him yesterday, after like 6-8 hours of failure. Closest I got was getting him to like 1/3 health. That boss is way too tanky, even with quad-shot ipecac and like ten damage upgrades I couldn't beat him. I could beat the current version of "SPEED!" but still can't do Ultra Greed with the Lost.
so how in the fuck are you supposed to do blue bomber

Megablast is probably unlocked by beating Mega-Satan as every character. It begs the question why this stuff was not in the DLC on launch. So much for "waah, there is no time-gating you tinfoil hatters!!!" Fucking early access DLC in disguise.

[QUOTE=Mellowbloom;49103178]so how in the fuck are you supposed to do blue bomber[/QUOTE] The developers realized the design fault of the blue bomber challenge, and now you also start with brother bobby :). But nah really, you either bomb him to death, and i mean real bombs and not kamikaze, or have an item that gives you an extra life as another character (say judas's shadow), then you can just heal yourself with the space (and kill satan with the fammiliar).
[QUOTE=Everything;49103091]Doesn't that add shopkeepers with nickels and dimes in their eyes to shops, secret rooms and vaults?[/QUOTE] Well, yeah. But we don't know what significance that has beyond exploding them for a chance at a nickle.
[QUOTE=Psychopath12;49103832]Well, yeah. But we don't know what significance that has beyond exploding them for a chance at a nickle.[/QUOTE] It's a huge help in a lot of runs even without any additional significance.
[QUOTE=Mellowbloom;49103178]so how in the fuck are you supposed to do blue bomber[/QUOTE] I found black judas during a run, got health upgrades which gave me read hearts.
Getting real sick of all this not time gating.
the update is coming out tomorrow isn't it damnit
I just realized, Nicalis not accepting notyoursaggitarus's rotten womb artwork is complete and total bullshit now, because they're doing exactly what they said they couldn't do by releasing an incomplete game and just adding in the content after a certain amount of time. I'd really like to know if all this content is missing from the console version too. (If it's even out.)
ugh the guardian can be such a pain. place a bomb to blow something up? the bastard just wanders over right where it is. Those Hearts and Mask rooms are impossible to get through without damage unless you kill them really quickly. Mom is definitely impossible to get through without damage, cause her unavoidable stomps directly target the punching bag.
Red champion Mom is game over in the Guardian, unless you have a heap of shield items or the chaos card.
[QUOTE=Everything;49105292]Red champion Mom is game over in the Guardian, unless you have a heap of shield items or the chaos card.[/QUOTE] What about goat head or pyromaniac or uh that host hat, does that transfer to the escort?
IIRC they transfer to the heart, but not the escort itself. If they get hit by those things, you still take damage. Similarly, even though the heart is floating, the escort will die on spikes. Damage is centric to them, the heart is just a visual indicator of who everything will be chasing.
Oh god, maybe I'm just horse-shit at the game but Lil' Horn is the fucking worst to run in to 1st/2nd floor, he's so annoying and really unpredictable.
