PC Gamer Weekender - Exclusive KF2 Content and Features Reveal

[Gregs2k2]

John and some of the other TW folks are in good old Blighty for this weekend's PCGamer Weekender event. Hope the weather isn't too cold for you guys.

Anyway, for those of you that missed it, I took the liberty of recording and packaging it all up for you, because I love you all. Some features confirmed were:

VS Mode
Sharpshooter's loadout (4 guns)
More information on the prison map
Grindhouse Mapping Contest
Development updates, etc

I know you can access the stream on the PCG YouTube channel but I've edited out the other non KF2 stuff (Rising Storm, which i'll post in the relevant thread if it isn't there already).

Enjoy

Think you forgot to unprivate it.

 

[HunBonus]

This video is private?

 

[Gregs2k2]

Nope, just YouTube being slow at processing. Give it 5 mins or so. Shows as processed from my end.

 

[Blow-Ya-Mind]

Nice a Rail gun woohoo

 

[Johnny Darko]

Nice. A bit unfortunate that the vs mode is getting that much attention drawn to it when that time should be going to finishing what the core game should be, but oh well.

Sharp weapons sound neat, Railgun was unexpected.

 

[Vi-Pe]

Versus! Thank you!

Yep. I thought the M99 would have been a hot contender.

 

[HunBonus]

Holy hell a railgun. I feared this.

 

[weeman2412]

Ah yes that classic spend 3 weeks teasing an update before releasing said update is starting already. Only a matter of time now before PCgamer starts their month long KF2 press playtest of the update.

Typical tripwire.

 

[ScrakeMorgendorffer]

A railgun.

I pray to the balance gods that we won't be forsaken.

It'll cost 3000 dosh to buy, and another 1000 to refill. It only has 5 bullets per refill.

This is some news, though not all of it is what I wanted. Hope to see questions based on gore and how they'll stop making the game artificial, no more tanky Fleshpounds that take 1 year to kill and Hans taking 10 centuries.

Yeah Normal really needs some urgent balance tweaks!

 

[FoolishNinja]

well well,
PVP mode sounds great, but the community will be split, that means I will find even less servers on HoE.

A railgun, didnt expect that, tbh I dont like these kind of futuristic weapons like the microwave gun and now the upcoming railgun... Doesnt really fit for me.

The prison map sounds great too, but they gotta work on the spawn system before they release it, otherwise we will see the "corner camping" again.

 

[Vapid]

No anti-tank rifle?

Has Sharpshooter footage been uploaded anywhere yet?

 

[Gallic_Taffer]

Hostile Grounds will be a great official addition. Not familiar with Containment Station, but three maps will give the game a much needed boost in variety.

Versus mode? Eh...would rather them focus on the core, but it's a nice addition. Get ready scrubs, the scrake shield wall with sirens behind it is coming!

 

[Vapid]

So, the Sharpshooter gets:

Lever-action Rifle
Crossbow
M14 Rifle
Railgun

???

 

[MvMArcher]

So, the Sharpshooter gets:

Rail gun

Fixed that for ya.
Just joking btw.

Other then that we don't know the tier order, so it'll be fun to see what price the crossbow and m14 gets.

I already foresee good ol' turtling in action, for human players to grab all FP spawns in a wave and wait for <6 zeds alive. Foolproof, no need for any other zeds

Otherwise these are some great news, thanks for sharing.
