Welcome back to another edition of What We Are Up To (at Tripwire Interactive, as opposed to some other company or group of people). Now that we

Well, assuming that Gunslinger's confirmed now, I assume that the Sharpshooter would come alongside it, since they were once the same perk. But we will see. :)

Gunslinger is the better half of KF1 Sharpshooter anyway. Most of my shooting was with the pistols. Yeah yeah I know, you can't take down Scrake/Fleshpound with pistols... that's what Microwave/RPG are for :p

Over the next few weeks

For one perk? :(

Hype train has come to an abrupt end. I was under the impression that an update was for sure not going to take as long as last time. What a shame.

honestly, i'd rather see Sharpshooter as he was the only perk who could carry games solo in random pubs aside from Zerk, and probably medic if you're willing to kite all day

Also Katana remains unused

Also this, kek. Weeks more just to see 1 sidekick perk teased ? Didn't they promise full game before end of the year :cool:

No, but more than 2 months for 1 perk that is basically just pistols is insane. Hopefully this WWAUT is incomplete and that Tripwire plans to dump the 4 final perks on us instead of just a single measly Gunslinger after the theoretical 2-3 months of waiting.

It's been 1 month since detonate and incinerate, I was hoping for more reveals in this WWAUT instead we got basically no major news.

Instead of perks can you just enable workshop so that all servers can start streamlining custom maps to the masses? There is not enough custom map servers right now. Surely that would be easier than working on w.e. you are working on right now.

Never in the history of ever was there a WWAUT that told us everything that was to come in the next update. They have been giving us a little at a time, and this is just the first WWAUT for the next update. Hold your horses, there is sure to be more.

I'm not surprised.

They got 2 contests running and my guess is the workshop and modkit take a high priority right now.

From what I could gather in addtion they are probably (re)working a lot of systems such as sound, economy, AI, Flex, perhaps welding and a truck load of bugfixes (hope they get a good successrate).
We might even see another perk rebalanced and / or it's skill tree revisted. I personally hope for medic but if anything it's most likely going to be demo.
No garuantees for any of that of course.

I'm still unhappy that these WWAUT posts don't cover what Tripwire has recently (past couple of weeks) been working on but only what is definitely set in stone to be released soon (TM). meh... that's the way it goes.

edit: Oh yes and achievements of course.
