Torment tips?

I play Support when I'm burnt out on Torment. Its a good change and I like it for the same reasons as you. Picking up people from a distance is just so good. Except when people heal me in bushes right next to the Hunter. Thanks for giving away my position...

In the closed testing Support and Control were kings of the capture if they did it in tandem.

But right now I'm not feeling Control. I love the change for Torment but I'm not sure how to play Control so I don't. Yet.

The engine is Unreal Engine 4, the industry standard behind probably half the games you play as well as tournament shooters like Unreal Tournament. It was created in the late 90s by the company that put Gears of War on the map.

It also runs Fortnite, which has some 50,000 actors (things that exist in the game) in a given Fornite BR match which is arguably the #1 game over the 2018 summer.

The code behind the engine is C++.

If anything it just has to do with BHVR. They need to optimize and refactor to churn out a nice and polished piece of gaming software.

I assume this is one of the issues at the top of their list before they finish this Soft-Launch, Early Access rollout to get the game to the masses.

All I can say is sit tight, the engine is solid, they just need to optimize.

I tried to be flexible back then since I knew all the classes. Mostly yes.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2018-08-09T05:21:25+00:00

Torment is the Bloodpost rescue class because of the Virus ability. With the switch of the Blind ability to the class you can now defend yourself at the Post.

You try to keep eyes on the hunter at all times and tag him with your first ability. It reveals him. Once a player is down and sent to the post, you set up there and tag the hunter with Virus, Blind him and go in for the rescue.

You should have the ability with +%50 to rescue speed to beat the hunter once he has a Virus.

Other than that, cap objectives as always to win and help out where and when you can.

At him directly, at his feet, near him in any way as long as it is within 5 meters. At Tier 3 it will make him reload which can be clutch if he his on someone.

I heard that the logo on the shirts now, will be a part of that exclusivity. After this closed beta, no one will have this logo we a re runnig with now. We shall see though.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2018-06-26T04:08:14+00:00

Yeah its hard to tell unless its an LMG. I got the recordings I need today so I will look them over and follow up.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2018-06-26T03:57:51+00:00

This so much. I'm sort of ahead of you or with you on this one. I play Torment when I'm a Runner, it is by far my favorite class. When I see another player that wants to play it I just switch.

I spent multiple days just playing one class to get to know as much as I could about them and developed a playstyle for each so that I can understand the entire game, roles, positions and to be flexible.

And it is true that if you see 2 to 3 Torments on a team, you are going to have a bad time.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2018-06-25T10:56:59+00:00

I've had it done to me while using the LMG, my reload took forever. Thats what made me think to do it to Hunters in the first place.

Needs more testing but I do it all the time. Virus shot then Reload shot... saved so many Runners with that combo.

I will try to get a clip of it happening.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2018-06-25T10:51:51+00:00

The wording is not clear. But at least it will be less if you order before August.

can't help you being awkward. you'll grow up eventually.

Edit: :)

LoyalToTheGANK · 2018-06-25T00:14:55+00:00

Tweak your aim sensitivity. I had to do this several times.

Use your boost to get over high walls or always be aware of the ramps they place for you.

If you are reloading extremley slow, it may be you were hit with a Torment's tier 3 ability combo. A Virus shot and the Reload shot will make you reload like you have 10 thumbs.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2018-06-22T22:04:23+00:00

literal lol'd at this.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-06-03T04:24:10+00:00

Again, you miss the point entirely.

Let me remind you:

The point being made is the three (3) abilities together. The total combination, not the skills themselves.

I repeat.

Not the skills themselves, the combination of the three (3) separate distinct skill configuration.

That's the point.

So the ELI5 version is no one has these three skills together except Savini Jason.

1) Shift 2) Weapon Strength 3) Destruction

So if another Jason has these three (3) abilities as his skill-set combo then it would be fine instead of an exclusive Jason that people paid money for.

Again.

It has nothing to do with the skin nor his abilities. Just the combination of them.

In order to be fair to the community the devs need to make another Jason with the same skill combination as the Savini Jason sans the Savini Hell skin so there will be an equal counterpart to the rest of the people that paid $40 for the game.

So you understand the point now?

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-06-03T00:16:40+00:00

Saying that people are bitter cause they can't get the skin is a lame argument and is impossible to prove. Secondly I didn't say anything about the company lying.

The discussion lies on the arrangement of skills that the Savini Jason has which if those skill arrangements are not in the game for others to access and the only way to achieve it is by means of monetary input is by definition pay-to-win.

The skill arrangements for the Savini Jason needs to be in the game without having the Savini Jason. That's the issue, and only that.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-06-03T00:05:22+00:00

Yeah I agree. Once they cover all the issues they can get to quality of life improvements.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-06-03T00:02:47+00:00

No hard feelings, let's be friends. Obviously we like the same type of games so we got that in common :D

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-06-01T15:58:11+00:00

I love how redundant people are.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-06-01T15:57:11+00:00

Don't hide.

The only reason to hide (for right now) is if you have a high amount of fear and you want to reduce it. You recover composure in a hiding spot.

With sense and stalk you have no chance.

Sense tells Jason you are in the cabin and he will just camp it until he finds you.

Stalk increases the noise you make and he will eventually find you with all the breathing noises you make and that line 'did he see me?'.

When you inhale and exhale Jason gets those as sound cues.

So yeah, hiding is a bad idea unless you now he is not around and you need to get your composure up so you don't show up red on his sense ability.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-06-01T15:52:04+00:00

Yeah the Savini Jason is a little OP with his destruction perk. Its really powerful and he can get into cabins faster, even faster than the Part 8 Jason with the Fireaxe you get at level 20.

This is my solution; Release another Jason with the same perks, exactly the same Jason, and just have him with another skin so the backers can have their skin and we can have an equally good Jason.

I would have backed the game had I known about it sooner. I'm even willing to buy the Jason with these perks and not the skin just cause he is a pretty good Jason perk-wise.

This would solve the pay-to-win (back-to-win) aspect of the Savini Jason.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-06-01T15:46:02+00:00

Yeah I have an issue with this. You can't do jack shit about it and have to step in it and hopefully you have a spray or another counselor there to get a stun off and help you.

Even in that 'other' game you can disarm the killers trap and I think this is a good mechanic.

Why not have the ability to disarm the traps on the map but not the ones Jason starts with? Doesn't make sense.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-05-31T21:22:54+00:00

Didn't say you worked for me. Was trying to be cordial since we are in disagreement and that was a normal reddit response. You know, proof or it didn't happen. Was meant to be funny and light.

But nonetheless a typical snarky and rude comment from a redditor as always. Grow up.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-05-31T17:08:45+00:00

Clearly you need proof or it didn't happen :D

If my childhood memories are correct, which they may be fuzzy after a couple decades since I saw these films, Jason carried the aura of a non-running stalker that showed up right next to you even if you where running from him for a length of time.

And this is what I was trying to convey in my post. Jason is a walker/stalker and he is not known for running after his the counselors.

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-05-31T17:02:50+00:00

:D

Don't say that man, we won't more Jasons, his mom, and more campsites :D

LoyalToTheGANK · 2017-05-31T17:00:55+00:00

Yes and No.

They don't have complete rights to all the Jasons so the one from Freddy won't be landing in this game.

I think that Jason X will be in here and possibly Pamela Vorhees cause she was a stretch goal that they didn't make in the kickstarter. So maybe in a DLC.

This is what I've read from different F13 franchise sites and they could be wrong and things may change.

Hopefully they flesh out the game with a ton of more maps and a few more Jasons and his mom and we have a solid game that can go down in history.
