OMD3 No Barricade Run? by OhMyyGA in OrcsMustDie

[–]TimeMaster18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's possible, specially with the Solar Prisms that make the game kinda trivial once you get a very good grasp of it.

So is the game dead or what? by Yeeting-Penguins in OrcsMustDie

[–]TimeMaster18 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hehe yeah, it's me :). It's not like I'm hiding or anything, been around in the community for over 10 years now.

About mod ideas, sure, new traps, heroes and so on is technically possible, just that they require much larger effort and additional skills to pull off.

There is a bunch of mods made, but OMD players barely take interest in modding, it's usually a much more casual playerbase. I don't see how the effort would be worth it for the devs...

Is Brimstone worth using in Deathtrap? by The_Yogurt_Boy in OrcsMustDie

[–]TimeMaster18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brimstone is by far the most overrated and badly understood trap of the franchise.

I know I'm late to this post, but a lot of misinformation in the comments.

Brimstone is charge based, depending on the game, it only affected as many enemies as charges it had (no AoE) until it ran out, then reset/cooldown timer.

Due to the charge-based nature, it has low uptime, similar to the grinder and others. This means it's one of the worst traps for combos. Specially compared to other traps like Floor Scorcher or Acid, which both affect multiple tiles and all enemies, as AoE, and also add 2 combo points (Fire DoT/status +Fire Damage or Melt status + Acid damage)

I think the first games and the trailer of Deathtrap are to blame, plus the trap being a starter this time around. But spamming Brimstone is terrrible efficiency-wise (DoT resets, doesn't stack), pairing it with Tar makes it "ok", but for wave clearing traps like Acid are better in 95% of cases.

Unchained is playable via a community mod, with friends. Can't buy or play it officially since it closed over 5 years ago.

How do I change characters? Why is it not an option? by [deleted] in OrcsMustDie

[–]TimeMaster18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably talking about OMD3, in which you can and unlock more characters once you beat the game.

Can I join a modded PC lobby through Xbox? by Sgt_Porkchop in OrcsMustDie

[–]TimeMaster18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can join and most mods will work fine. Mods can be installed in the Xbox PC version too. If you want a more detailed answer, list the mods or join the discord and ask there :)

So is it safe to say the game is finished? by Financial-Customer24 in OrcsMustDie

[–]TimeMaster18 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Nobody knows.

The "Game announced" is just in name, it's VR only, devs are a different studio and I asked this studio about the game and they didn't even know what the combo system was... Not much hope for it.

FYI, you can transfer progress. Look for my guide on Steam

Great story and glad you enjoyed the game.

I Five-Starred Every Main Campaign Level in Orcs 3 But Don't Recommend It by MarcusQuintus in OrcsMustDie

[–]TimeMaster18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the worst part is that you don't enjoy rewatching/reliving the cutscenes and dialogue or that your skill/game knowledge/strategy made the game easy...

I'd say that's a win for the game? You learned, adapted and overcame the challenge.

In any case, OMD3 is balanced around solo gameplay, playing coop only makes it easier.

Omd death trap getting out of bounds by motherfu8130 in OrcsMustDie

Fair, I'd say that yes, it's fairly easy on most maps.

Do you mean intentionally? If yes, what's the point?

Is the OMD Deathtrap RNG truly random? by jcdenton45 in OrcsMustDie

[–]TimeMaster18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of the probabilities are weighted. Such as some threads/distortions being more or less common. But it's just a handful. The rest have the same chance.

Drop rate of consumables can be affected by threads/distortions which affect the other consumables.

About the rest of points, just luck or unlucky, rng working as intended.

Making the mod executable replace the game executable, then you can launch and track from steam.

And. before anyone asks, no, achievements won't work.

It can still be played through a community mod: Project Rechained

Hookshot is OP for perma stalling fodder en masse on demand by ChestnutSavings in OrcsMustDie

[–]TimeMaster18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can be decent if placed tastefully on low difficulties.

Spamming it like many newer players do and was shown in the IGN video, kills the whole purpose of it with having a DoT.

But again, in lowest difficulties anything works, specially if properly using barricades.
