Hey, Arblarg what's the story behind the new sig? It's not the typical "OP weapon of the event" this time.

Because they're all underpowered PoS. TWI is just rolling in lods of emone...probly.

OP sig is only for op weapons, nothing in this pack is anything that can even be considered slightly op. TWI is milking the crap out of a pack of junk weapons and thats about it.

Rolling in the moneh, moneh, moneh!

On a side note, that real life actor for Harold Loft is scary accurate looking. He even got that stupid grin down.

I don't like the new guns. They have something not-KF in them.
Save for the spear launcher thingy. It looks kinda nice, like an improvised weapon of some short.

Steampunk guns where out of place too, but they found their place in the game. At least for me they did.
I am probably going to get those instead.

The camo pack is just not interesting for me.
I do not like camo painted on guns in real life too.


There many things that could have been added, like more British weapons.

Do we really need big space looking guns?

This is not Serious Sam, and even Sam in the latest game had more "realistic" weapons...



P.S.
I really liked the new "Blind the Big Brother" achievement. ;)

Arblarg, did you get the DLC? I would've figured it'd be a bit before anyone really figured out if the weps were any good or not, since NO ONE seems willing to buy 'em.

I wasn't planning on picking them up 'til they went on sale, like I do most of the stuff I'm not willing to spill a lot of dosh on.

Well, it's a character. The guy is just basically a comedian, least far as I am aware, and this was a very popular character.

But yeah, Harold is based off this fella.

"Don't like it don't buy it"? You'd have a point if you were still only releasing cosmetic DLC.

The main thing I have problems with is that game-altering DLC is released for absolutely ludicrous prices. Overprice cosmetic DLC all you want and I won't care, but the game is increasingly becoming pay2win right now.

I used to respect you a lot, but that respect was betrayed once the first community weapon pack was released. You turned your back on a promise, TWI. Players aren't going to forget that any time soon.

Lol... pay2win... you can win with the guns available...
Also, yeah I could agree on the DLC price for the new guns, but that's just because they're made to be solid, and probably worth for some. Killing Floor's been out since 09', and they need a kind of revenue post-buying. I'd love KF to even flourish more with DLCs than to see it rot and abandoned with whatever they left off it and dedicate themselves to the newer releases.

Similar claims on the RO boards are made about KF DLC creation robbing RO2.

EDIT: i also should add, that for game producers to make good money, this is the model ofhow it is done with DLC.
As much as in the past TWI have been good with fre content, that will be changing, and you can see we are slowly being conditioned to accept that. Cant blame them really.

Well, I'm not sure how many players RO2 has, but Killing Floor has sold over 1 million copies! That should be enough to say FXCK everything else, lets make a better Killing Floor since the majority of our customers are playing it, hello!

I think the new weapons are cool, the ZED gun is awesome, The plasma balls look pro and the recoil feel quite realistic.

Someone say it looks too futuristic, well, look the game background with Horzine having Cyborg-Mutant tech, I think plasma balls are'nt too far from that, technology wise..

Define "better".

"Better" means different things for different people. Not two of us think of the same things as "better".'

For me, more realism and slower more horror like action is "better". For some other people what i deem as "better" is reason enough to leave the game and never bother play it again.

TWI as forums, sure, but only a minority of players are also forum members, and many players do not know enough English to voice their opinions equally with those who know some English.
TWI does not get enough feedback.

One way to work this out would be to ask the players, using a survey about what they like and what they dislike in the game, what maps, weapons and skins would they like to see in game, and what DLCs they would buy.

It is greedy of the players to demand x, y and z for free when they are the result of efforts from the company and players. Effort costs time and time costs money.
IJC made the weapons but Tripwire implemented them and both have every right to make money from our purchases, which are not required, in order to fund future endeavors.

People hate EA because the DLC they give is crap for how overpriced it is (I'm looking at you P2W Battlefield, you used to be cool now you are not). Personally, the weapons this time are truly something special and I can only imagine the days slaved away on their making. This is the one time I can say 8 dollars for a weapon pack is ok to fly. The only problem is that the weapons need some balancing so they are viable options on harder difficulties. Still I applaud Tripwire for starting small/underpowered. "OP" weapons makes people rage stupid hard, but underpowered stuff just annoys those persons for some reason.

The sorta high cost is to cover all the free stuff Like New maps and events for Killing Floor and Red Orchestra 2. It's pretty fair IMO

Over here, no not there, here.
I AM 17 AND WHAT IS THIS?
But yeah
Sometime awhile back it became the forumgoers job to decide what content should be put in the game, what's fitting and what not. It's contributing and continueing to support an old game if it's free; if it costs money then it's milking; I'm sure that falls under a logical fallacy but I don't keep track.
But luckily, this is a small part of the player base so we won't be holding TWI back any ( I will only until I can come up with some quid)

*gasp
What's that?

It's the sound of everyone else not giving a ****.
