KF 1025 Update

[StuntLionRooster]

Small update today. This update should allow us to capture much more accurate and useful analytic data to help us balance perks and game play.

This update is a new version number and will require servers to update.

General

• Improvements to analytics collection system

Balance

• Damage on Hans

Aww, I saw the pop-up on Steam and was hoping it would bring some goodies.

You guys talk about balance since 3months...
When is this coming to shine out?

Not that hard to change some numbers.
Join HoE, play 3-4 rounds and you will see whats broken and what not.
And the updates are very slow ( 2 weeks for 2 improvements ).
Are you guys working on something big we dont know yet?
Any WWAUT updates?
We dont even have a rough roadmap...

damage on hans

 

[Radio4ctive]

I think Hans damage on suicidal and hell on earth should be nerfed too. But thanks for update

 

[ahcos]

Really feels like you've given up on the game :\ I certainly have.

 

[infntnub]

The rate of content updates really is becoming concerning - if you were to extrapolate the data regarding time lapses between previous updates to try to guestimate when we may see most of the changes being requested along with the final perks expected one could easily come to a date in the year 2017. Not exactly what I was expecting, even with an EA title but oh well I suppose. Although I know KF2 is supposedly on par with the content releases that accompanied KF1 initially - it just doesn't feel like it though. :s

The Hans tweak on Hard is appreciated; I'm sure the folks who play that difficulty will be quite pleased.

I assume now that these analytical tools are in place and the conductor is set up in a basic form, we'll be seeing another large update similar to InD, with the release of the workshop and the expansion of the zedconomy probably being large parts to hold us over until Sharpshooter. There should be several small balance updates alongside the content updates to bring the existing perks into their respective sweetspots. I'm sure we'll have all the perks by third quarter.

Leave HoE alone please.

1 perk/ 3 months
3 pekrs/9 months
maybe at the end of 2016 we will have 10 perks

 

[DBShinigami]

More like :
1 returning perks : Four months (at least),
2 news perks : 10 months (at least),
Adding bosses and new weapons : 3 months.


Maybe we can expect the final release in June 2017.

Worst part... I'm not trolling

i agree with u. that is what TW is showing
i dont know if the are having problems with money and they only have a few persons working on KF or what

 

[Bartuc]

Off Topic:This games is still alive?, Bravo!! i would shake your hands but i shall just eviscerate you instead!

On topic: mmmm are you guys ok?, this is not the kind of quality of updates that we are used to.

Keep it UP!!!

Many fans asked for quicker updates to address issues as they were resolved so we have worked to do that since the start of the year.

we agree but
3 months for a new perk
maybe TW should put beta to let us lest things to see a progress

I would love to see a beta, steam is already set up to use one TWI just needs to utilize it. If i remember correct i remember they said that they only have 10 play testers, so getting data from a Beta could help find the sweet spot for perks not out yet faster.

 

[Larathiel]

Thank God you've finally adjusted Hans' melee on Hard. Maybe now I can get my clan playing KF2 again...

 

[Johnny Darko]

Very nice to see Hans' damage finally acknowledged as an issue officially. I assume only Hard got changed due to the winrate analytics, and I appreciate that people that don't know about the Zerker exploit will be able to actually kill him reliably (Well, excluding kiting him for an hour... which is probably a good chunk of Hans wins in the first place) on what's practically meant to be the real standard difficulty.

Looking forward to that rework in the future.
