I can tell you it isn't the perks. It is the skill

... reiterate something that all good players know already anyway.

There ya go.

What is funny is how people reacted. I thought people would react with "Yeah, something like that happened to me as well and I was able to do that as well." Never expected the antagonistic replies.

Really? The replies started off as this:

It isn't the skill, its the Xbow

Damn right.

Not hard killing them at range even if they're raged at you, you most likely would of died without the xbow.

So yeah, it was the xbow

Causing you to start claiming you were awesome and denying the Xbow was the reason:



Keep thinking that. *talking yourself up*

So keep thinking it was the xbow.

I suppose that was the magical xbow as well?

Keep thinking that if you want.

And you wonder why you got antagonistic responses when you started an epeen thread and proceeded to talk yourself up when everyone knows hitting something at long range isn't hard with the Xbow...

We must be playing completely different maps or servers because when I play on Gas Station, 95% of the other players either hole up in the stairs or they shoot from the roofs.

I think that says something about the players you are with, not the map. Because i only know of 1 'Gas Station' and thats easy.

And?

The map itself seems to be designed for idiots. A lot of the spawn points are halfway across the map and when specimens do spawn near the building it's not at all hard to evade them.

I miss the way zeds spawned outside the map only in the mod, and not 5m away from you out of nowhere.

Hasn't the map been dewhitelisted yet, or the exploits such as getting atop the Carwash fixed?

In this newest version do they still let you kill the patriarch in the carwash?

I wouldn't know. I haven't played serious KF in a while. I still don't have any lvl 6 perks. and I would guess yes since there's no way to disallow someone from killing the patty in a particular area. in any case, people are allowed to kill the patty however they want, even if it's really easy.

Time for KEPT to find exploits from it.

Pretty sweet man, good to know you can still hold your own at a low level perk on Hard.
Props.

Yeah this is pretty obvious. I see clueless level 6's all the time who clearly have no idea how this game works.

Regardless, you'd be foolish to think the xbow isn't overpowered. It costs a flat rate of 400 pounds, regardless of perk level or anything. It has 6x headshot damage, regardless of perk. Lastly, it hardly acts like a projectile weapon so hitting enemies from across the map is easy.

Exactly. Although i think more scopes should be added to SS weapons. or maybe a buyable scope you can get for 50-100 pounds that you can attach to all the SS weapons. The xbow being the only weapon with a real scope is kinda lame. =/

You survived on hard difficulty with lvl 0 perks on an easy map with one of the best weapons in the game. So err... what is this supposed to proof exactly?

Id be impressed if it was on suicidal and on a real map like Biotics Lab or Bedlam.

Or am I missing something here?

And isnt it quite obvious that a player who has spent hundreds of hours in the game can perform just fine no matter the perk level and difficulty, not as well as they would with full perks but well enough.
