Besides, suicide bombing is really fun! With offperk bonuses you could be an explosive berserker, maybe even with a pulveriser damage boost!
And maybe when the level 10 resistance stacks with passive resistance it opens a "shoot him point blank with an rpg, throw grenades at your feet" playstyle?

They could always remove the grenade from supplier and make it ammo only when this goes live. The devs have said they balance perks off of each other, so his concerns ARE valid.
As excited as I am to get demo and firebug, I really have to be honest and say that this skill tree is very underwhelming. The firebug skill tree looks much more thought out in comparison to this one. There's not a single skill in any of these tiers that I'd be dying to get.
On contact looks alright I guess. I'd just pick it because the alternative is so useless.
On a side note, I think there should be a tier that lets you choose between explosion radius and direct-impact damage. Or skills that let you reload faster, get more maximum ammo, chance to ignite ZEDs, etc.
I don't understand why anyone would pick grenade supplier. The support perk already gives ammo and a grenade, so this is just a straight downgrade. Maybe if it fully restored grenades, I'd consider it. But the more important issue is the supplier perk in general's functionality. Oftentimes people don't ever pick up ammo from me because there's no visual indicator, so it goes completely unused. We don't need an even weaker version of that. I'm really hoping I'm misunderstanding what this perk actually does.

This is another case of one perk being completely superior. Sacrifice just seems like a gimmick that will be fun for a match or two then never get used again. I'd never gamble on dying being a good strategy. I'd maybe use it if I had a chance to explode every time I was hit with a melee attack, not just up and dying. With the way it is, just give me the resistance.
Door traps seems alright. I doubt I'd ever use it unless the siren resistance percentage was low enough where it didn't make much of a difference. Speaking of which, would just making grenades always ignore sirens be overpowered or something? Because personally I find RNG distasteful.
Well, these are actually useful. Do you want to go pure demo, or have some flexibility to defend yourself when enemies close in? Seems like a reasonable trade-off.
Well...ZED time perks are ZED time perks. I don't particularly care about them no matter what they do.

That's what I thought really, that support wouldn't be able to supply grenades anymore. I'd like that outcome. Support players would hate me for saying that, but let demo have the grenades! They are explosives after all.
I have a question about booby trapping doors also. Say a support welded a door 50-80%, if a trapdoor demo finished the weld would it take effect? Or does the demo have to do the weld entirely himself?
Just so everyone knows, when I said damage resistance I implied explosive which is a form of damage.
Secondly, what's the difference between dying and exploding vs you and your teammates having higher explosive resistance, throwing your grenades at your feet, exploding and not dying?

Great news!! love u tw!
Tier 1 - Technique
Grenade Supplier: Team can receive an extra grenade from you once per wave
i think many of you are not interpreting this correctly, one EXTRA grenade , means instead of 5 grenades you get 6!! (i think its this way)

Aloha Snackbar!
I am also pleased to let the community know that something else will be coming in the update. While the main focus of this update is of course the Demo and the Firebug we have been prototyping how dual pistols will work. When this update goes live players will now be able to purchase dual 9mm pistols from the trader (fill out that extra slot in your build, or go nuts and challenge Hans with dualies only)!
Spoiler!
Looks like you'll be able to aim from one of the pistols? I'm not a big fan of the idea...Well, I'm a KF1 veteran and I've been used to picking up heads at 100 yards with dual MK23s. It's so easy with proper practice.
Could you clarify a bit how it'll work so far?

Dynamite? What dynamite? I know C4 is one of your perk weapons, but this is the first I'm hearing about any dynamite.
Not much to expand on that isn't available in the screenshot. Our current prototype of the system has one weapon with the iron sights up and the other offset.
I am really intrigued by the dual-pistols screenshot...
Notice that there's a muzzle flash coming off of the pistol he ISN'T aiming straight at the enemy with, firing from an angle? What do you suppose that is about?
Oooh, if they're trying out some sort of asynchronous aiming system I'll be so stoked.
Edit: or, after reading Yoshiro's post, maybe they both just shoot straight ahead like normal and one merely looks like it's at an odd angle. Ohwell.

Ideas:
1-Dual gangster
2-Zig-zag aiming/shooting
3-Auto zig-zag shooting
"Same" as above, the focus just changes on each weapon between shots so the iron sights goes to the center of the screen. You can't expect to fire as accurately AND fast with two pistols, right?
Edit: Sorry for potato quality images, they are supposed to be demonstration of iron sights aiming.
Edit2: Idea number 4- A middle-ground between 1 and 2, should seem more realistic and... more confortable. 45 degrees as such /\. With the pistols not side by side, but the left one a little bit to the front of the other. Who shoots fully facing the target?

Or it would be the counter to Husk shots and suicides. Plus there have been a couple of times where I throw a grenade and it hits a zed that is right in front of me. :/
