How do you all like the latest DLC? I noticed there were no threads dedicated to the newest DLC (except for the issues concerning selecting the characters).
What are your favorite characters in the steampunk DLC pack?
Perhaps you prefer the Steampunk Mr. Foster to the DLC characters?
Or you prefer one of the older DLCs?

My fave steampunk character has to be the Sharpshooter (despite the fact that I don't play sharpie), he reminds me of a WW1 pilot! :D

My favourite character out of all the packs has to be Foundry Worker Aldridge, though.

I really enjoy the medic and the bezerker the most, I love the style they put into them, also the saw the medic has, and the blades the bezerker has on his back. The sharpshooter looks kinda silly in my opinion, I think it's the shiny metal straps wrapped around his arms and legs, other than that they are all awesome

I think the best character is the Baddest Santa though :)

Can you play with Baddest Santa and Steampunk Foster at all times once you unlock them or are they only available during Winter and Summer events?
I only unlocked Foster, so I don't know the details about out-of-event-time playability.

They're all very nicely done. I like the berzerker particularly, probably because I would similarly fab up some homemade armor in the case of zombie-pocalypse :D

Still, Mike Noble remains my favorite character

here to kill your monster
It's the best pack since the foster/lee baron pack, if not better even because all 4 characters are pretty good; (i only really liked foster and baron from that or any other pack tbh)
of course steampunk is probably more inspiring and easier to make interesting than civillian yob or army stereotypes.

Of the 4 (or 5 inc foster) i like the dead space guy best (swords on back)

does the pack 'work' properly now, btw?

Middle of Nowhere
why isn't there a steampunk version of the commando or Support Specialist.
That is all that make it feel incomplete.
But the skins are good if they can fix the bugs with them(game)

I got the skin's but i actually haven't used them. I think they look rather good i particularly like the one with the two machete on his back.

But Reverend Alberts is still my favourite character so far. :p

I'm probably the only one here who rolls the Steampunk Firebug.

He looks a lot like Sam Fisher with an oxygen tank on his back.

I think Steampunk Foster and Foster in general are overused to the point that I'm sick of seeing 'em (Sad, I know, since he's basically Killing Floor's "Iconic" character).

I like the Steampunk Pyro and Berserker the most, but I think all of 'em were well done. They have that "Homemade, built with whatever-we-could-find" equipment feel.

This gotta be my fav DLC so far. I love the berserker one cause it reminds me of Isaac from Dead Space :p

Real Dead Space themed skin would be awesome too.

I like the steam Foster and medic models a lot, but they are overused atm. As for the others, they are really not my kind of cars, and look to outlandish to me, to much out of character for the game. And honestly, I tend to forget reselecting model, so I shy away from using the new pack. I'll stick with Spebbington for a while longer, with the added bonus that my mates know that it is me immediately.
