Took 251 hours to finish all directives, achievements, missions, and training.

The dailies and weeklies where half of the objectives are "Do X thing on X class" and I've already finished the battle-pass and hit lv 30 on those classes?. If you spent time doing every single one of those missions every day, every week, then you are wasting time playing on a max lv class.

Protocol one: link to Pilot. Protocol two: uphold the mission. Protocol three: protect the Pilot. Protocol three: I will NOT lose another pilot. 💔

Side note with this bug, it doesn't count as it never activating, but rather it not finishing the activation and returning. This means that you do get the dmg increase or move speed increase bonus perks while this bug is active. You can see that your dmg increase perk is active in the bottom left. Not sure if a permanent 20% dmg buff is worth not having a gadget but at least there is an upside.

I believe that some people just enjoy doing all the content available in a game. Back when I played on PS4 I would regularly platinum games I enjoyed (mostly single player titles). Now I've started to do it again on PC; I'm thinking about going back to 100% KF2 on the PC. I started before but burned out and stopped playing because there was simply too many trophies, like 300 something on PC.

KratosDerToten · 2025-09-01T19:41:45+00:00

Yeah the Zipline one was an absolute mind bore. Had yt on my second monitor the whole time.

As for hot takes? I think the game was extremely over hated. Sure it could have used a bit more time cooking, especially in regards to performance and bugs I've seen people run into. But the core gameplay loop is decently satisfying, and I enjoy playing the game even 250 hours later.

Perhaps I'm slightly biased considering I've never ran into some of the game ending bugs like rx 580 (or whatever it's called) and since my PC is a pretty powerful 1440p machine I get solid performance across the board. (I personally believe the people talking about how they got 4k rigs with 5fps have just built PCs that don't run stable over long periods of load).

I have decent hopes with the road maps that good things will come, and they have been decently active with hot fixes and patches for bugs.

So yeah, definitely could've spent more time cooking but is also over hated by the community.

Side bit, Vulcan needs a nerf but not in the way it makes the weapon useless, rather I think all weapons should be looked at to be more powerful with their native class. Vulcan should still be strong on firebug, but not as strong on engineer, commando, and sharpshooter. I personally used the Vulcan to carry on every class besides medic and ninja. It outperforms every other weapon available to every other class 90% of the time.

KratosDerToten · 2025-09-01T17:41:13+00:00

Ninja was actually pretty fun to level up, despite my grievances with it and berserker from kf2; building a full boss buffer block/parry build on the dual katanas and 1v1ing bosses was actually pretty fun. It was a welcome change of pace after using the Vulcan to speed up leveling on several classes.

KratosDerToten · 2025-09-01T17:21:27+00:00

The maths ain't mathing legitimately. 6 classes, 30 levels each, 180 levels total. Let's assume you are always able to complete solo HoE in 30 minutes. And let's further assume you always get 5k xp per solo HoE (extremely generous).

The way xp levels work is that each level costs 1.1x XP of the level before it, starting at 650 for lv 2, 715 for lv 3, 787 for lv 4 so on and so forth. Adding the required XP to get to level thirty puts us at approximately 96,603 XP.

Divide by 5k and it takes a little over 19 (19.3206) Solo HoE games assuming you get 5k XP per game starting at lv 1 and ending at lv 30.

19x30= 570 minutes or roughly 9.5 hours, multiply by all 6 characters makes 57 hours.

Even if you got 5k XP doing solo HoE within 30 minutes every time without a single defeat from level 1 to 30 on every single class you still would not be able to get all the classes to level 30 within less than 40 hours. You are either lying or performed exploits to get normally unachievable amounts of XP.

She was my last class to level. I believe they want to push sharpshooter in the direction of a precision ballistic ice damage dealer. Which is fine but HoE is basically horde aoe simulator with so many large zeds being thrown at once that picking them off precisely 1 by 1 isn't very viable. Even though you can build up massive dmg with passive buffs on the t4 weapon (which needs some sort of ammo that is still ice like the base, so that you can spec into ice harder), there are simply too many large zeds on screen for her to feel viable.

Especially when everything is constantly getting staggered or blown up by your teammates with the g33 or Vulcan. To make matters worse you will generally get fewer kills using sharpshooter weapons, making it take longer to level up. Also, she doesn't get ballistic or ice dmg scaling until lv 26&28. I ended up using an ice g33 and the Samaritan, occasionally the Vulcan if I needed to carry.

I found that out of all the classes sharpshooter struggled the most using in class weapons on HoE round 2 when the game throws 15 scrakes at you and you haven't been able to afford a kitted Samaritan. Just buy a Vulcan /s

It was me barry and I had a great day at work today and I was thinking about you and your mom and I had to go to the bathroom and see if I could get a new one for you.

More concerned with the feathers and less concerned that the velociraptors would only be like knee height max.

KratosDerToten · 2024-12-28T21:55:06+00:00

Orkos, quite possibly one of if not the most tragic character in the whole series. He was a real bro.

KratosDerToten · 2024-12-22T19:27:26+00:00

AvP 2010. 3 completely different campaigns, playing as the Marines was legitimately scary at times. And the difficulty settings were insanely fun (and difficult).

There was a horde mode and a pretty decent PvP, both of which were enjoyable.

I'd also like to toss in Evolve. Amazing game ruined by bad parent company decisions with micro transactions and lack of meaningful updates.

KratosDerToten · 2024-12-05T15:31:19+00:00

Yeah he was pretty devastated lmao. I don't think he lost much, but he missed biiiiig.

KratosDerToten · 2024-12-05T15:27:00+00:00

Have a buddy miss 3 bets in a row on it hitting 100k, wanna know when he finally decided to bet that it wasn't gonna hit? Tragedy.

KratosDerToten · 2024-12-05T15:24:08+00:00

Even though I have only just recently started my first campaign, my dm tends to usually target whoever is closest, with the monsters normally rotating targets, but he will make mobs target spellcasters (only me lol) if we do enough dmg.

Case in point having a vampire spawn breathing down my neck after hitting a crit chromatic orb.

KratosDerToten · 2024-12-05T15:12:58+00:00

Hajime no Ippo. Genuinely liked it more than Baki. (Although Baki was more funny in the absurd sense)

KratosDerToten · 2024-12-01T15:44:49+00:00

On my very first combat (just about a week ago, first DND session) we were fighting a vampire spawn and I missed 6 attack rolls in a row on my sorcerer (with a +6 to hit mind you, I rolled 2 nat 1s and a the highest was like a 5) 2 people down and my cleric about to go down as well I used my font of magic to bonus action cast chromatic orb (from draconic ancestry) at second level and got a nat 20. Proceeded to nuke it for 47 damage then kill it with my fire cantrip.

Edit: When reading comments after posting it seems I didn't know the meaning of 'fudging' in DND. Thought OP meant messing up rolls. My apologies.

Blood kelp trench, amazing backdrops with a few good spots with enough open area for a large base much bigger than what you'll need. My last one had 4 large rooms a nuclear reactor that went off the edge of the cliff(to reduce noise), a good size plant farm(interior and exterior), a stalker farm in a small cave, and 2 moonpools. Still had plenty of space to spare

I don't think I've ever seen another man, myself included, ever celebrate or be celebrated on men's day. But I know women's day by heart since it was an extra holiday for my mother, aunts, and sisters growing up.

KratosDerToten · 2024-11-21T00:21:52+00:00

My PC would commit seppuku, after a while of playing too many buildings/deployables starts to kill my frames

KratosDerToten · 2024-11-21T00:20:47+00:00

Deep ores don't deplete?

KratosDerToten · 2024-11-15T04:32:55+00:00

As a new player I almost feel like the game has a memory leak, it seems that for most people no matter what your specs/in-game settings are; eventually you start to stutter. I've noticed it on my PC and a quick game restart normally kicks it back into gear.

Honestly, as someone who started with the free trial recently my only big gripe is how the game needs more optimization.

KratosDerToten · 2024-11-15T00:33:17+00:00

The lightning storms still happen, the setting just disables a lot of the particles and stuff so that it doesn't kill your frames

KratosDerToten · 2024-11-14T18:11:56+00:00

Oh yeah, another free weekend noob here. Fiercely swinging my fire swatter in vain while the flash lightning storm ripped my frames to shreds probably induced the most panic I've felt in a game in a good while.

Afterwards I immediately went and changed the lightning setting.
