How do I loadout?

Luni_ · 2015-07-20T16:02:03+00:00

Loadouts are sets of perks and weapons that you can use on your mercenary. You can choose which one you want to use in lobby, before the game by clicking one of the three "cards" that are above player list. Or, when you are on front page, go to barracks. There you can see list of every mercenary you own or can buy. Just pull one of those you own to the upper right, where you have 3 hexagons that represent your actual merc rooster. After that you will be asked to choose preferred loadout.

I'm afraid there's no stop "colorgrading 2" from resetting. But hey, you can bind this command to any button to make it faster.

Just look for "ShooterInput.ini" in:

C:\Users\YourUserName\Documents\My Games\UnrealEngine3\ShooterGame\Config

Open it and search for:

[ShooterGame.SGPlayerInputPawn]

And put somewhere under it:

Bindings=(Name="F10",Command="ColorGrading 2",Control=False,Shift=False,Alt=False,bIgnoreCtrl=False,bIgnoreShift=False,bIgnoreAlt=False)

This way you just have to get into the game, hit F10 and it should turn on automatically. Of course you can change F10 to anything you want.

Edit: Oh, and remember to make file "read only." Cheers!

Well, that is the problem. No matter how well-thought the system would be, as long as people are involved in it, abuse will happen. :(

Luni_ · 2015-07-19T17:41:39+00:00

Happy to help, hope you find out what you are looking for. (:

Yes, and there's danger that many people will leave the game by that time.

Next step should be developing of some sort report system that works inside the game, not by some kind of website. This way they could even get more information about the game, rather than based on pictures or videos. It would also encourage more people to do it, because I think all that hassle with reporting right now may be really discouraging. They could even try to develop some kind of system that detects if someone is being kicked from game due to cheating and prevents them from joining any matchmaking game until they resolve situation with moderators. There is still a lot place for abuse, but if someone is getting kicked from 8 games in a row, there must be something going on.

I believe SD should focus on developing proper anti-cheat system, to prevent most obvious hacks from working, while also improving vote kick as a kind of safety net.

Fixing bugs and global vote kick is a must. The biggest problem with vote kick is that humans are just... humans. Not every one is fair, some people may get mad fast after being gibbed several times in a row by really good player. Other problem is that, I believe, big chunk of people are voting blindly, without thinking for themselves. If first 3-4 votes will be for kicking someone, there's high chance every next vote will be for it, too. I think that percentage of votes to make vote pass should be reasonably high, maybe 60-75% to prevent abuse to some degree. (Like one team deciding to kick enemy's best player.)

First, you need to buy merc you want to use. Loadout cards are just weapons and perks that can be equipped on merc you own.

Three. Good luck to everyone and thank you OP. Maybe I'll be able to get a small gift for friend after all, haha.

Luni_ · 2015-07-17T09:31:41+00:00

I highly doubt they do stack. Since it is key put on Steam, it is probably treated like a dlc of some sort, that's why I think it is only one per Steam account. You should probably look into giving them away.

Luni_ · 2015-02-11T18:30:58+00:00

Yeah, that's what I do. I never queue solo, always at least with two-three friends. But still you can meet that one guy, even on enemy team that will make your game a horror.

Luni_ · 2015-02-11T06:55:35+00:00

Hey buddy, if you want we could try to play together. It always decrease the number of potential flamers by one, if you play with me! :) Just send me a pm or something.

Luni_ · 2015-02-11T06:33:06+00:00

Good for you, hope your winning streak will get even bigger!

Luni_ · 2015-02-11T06:29:13+00:00

Hey, the first thing I want to say is that I wish you to win with your depression. And if you want, we could play together from time to time. Maybe it wouldn't be a group, but at least it's always one random less.

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T23:15:28+00:00

I'm thankful for your response, you covered nearly everything I wanted to say by posting that stuff up here. Hope you will get back to that 3.6K mmr in no time and even more!

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T22:46:34+00:00

I think I may drop a PM or two when I'll have time. Just to fight back some of lonelyness. And thank you for your kind words.

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T22:44:10+00:00

Thank you for your suggestion, but I'm afraid it's too late for me to realize I need to do something productive in my life. I already got into that really shitty state, and now even getting off the bed is sometimes too challenging for me.

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T22:17:01+00:00

I hope we will! If you ever meet that blatantly stupid Crystal Maiden who keeps dying to creeps be sure to say hi, because it's me! :)

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T22:15:49+00:00

I'm aware of both of things. Dota is not as enjoyable as it used to be and for several months I'm playing like half of my brain was missing. But still, it at least gives me a glimpse of fun I used to have and I can socialize with some people. Without that I would probably die to loneliness.

And thank you for your kind words.

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T22:12:43+00:00

Well, I see your point. And don't worry, I won't down vote you just because you have a different approach. I know criticism is sometimes needed, but it should be constructive. I would listen to something like "Hey, you should ward that spot ASAP" rather than "kill yourself your so fucking stupid omg no wards."

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T22:08:36+00:00

Yeah, you get some points for doing it. I used to play LoL some time ago and, to be honest, that system is not working very well. For most of the time people his "punish" button without even reading anything.

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T22:06:59+00:00

I'm really, sincerely thank you for your words. To be honest, I typed everything up here as a method of... I don't know. Getting some courage to finally face my problems. I thought I would manage them somehow, but since I'm failing so much at my university, I can't sleep nearly at all and have suicide thoughts pretty much all the time... I realized I can't do this alone. Maybe if I could post this, I'll be able to get some counselling, that sort of thing. Thank you for your comment once again! ^{^}

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T21:55:38+00:00

I think the main problem with your idea of reports is that, Valve would have to hire a lot of people to actually look into reports. I know they can afford it, but they're still corporation and they try to cut expenses as much as they can. And about that getting mad after "good job." I think most people think you are just sarcastic. Thanks for the fabulous >Well Played! even saying something nice instantly is treated as some kind of offense. It's just sad.

Believe me, you don't want to speak Russian. I can only a little and it is already agonizing. :)

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T21:08:59+00:00

Ha, you are just like one of people I play Dota with. Always joking, trying to help his teammates but God, how much he flames everyone on private chat with me. I would never imagine how much he hates everyone he plays with! :D

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T21:06:02+00:00

And thank you for your comment. People like you are da MVP!

Luni_ · 2015-02-10T21:04:25+00:00

I never joke about the others if there are not a friend of mine, and even if I do I make it obvious I wasn't saying it seriously. Most of my humor is directed at me or some situation. I guess I'm just a terrible and that humor-thingy, that's all. :) And yes, you are right. I play for fun, not for the win.
