A love letter for those who likes consistency

Posted: 20 Aug 2018 01:18 PM PDT

I've had it.

Posted: 20 Aug 2018 05:13 AM PDT

Sorry to bring another rant post to the sub, but I have to get this off my chest.

Every game i play, it doesn't matter if I'm in twine, canny, plank or stonewood. I keep running into the most useless players ever, all they do is shout at me to help them and run around trying to escape the husks. They don't even use weapons, even though they're literally scattered around the map like candy.

Sometimes I do help them, and they drop a little gift box for me. Usually not worth the effort though. Anyone else getting sick of these players?

edit: 10 upvotes at 8am on a Monday? I have peaked with this dumb joke

edit2: 25 now, this is not a drill. Epicplzfixlagonconsolekthx

edit3: we hit 65 boys. Send mini llamas. Shout out to everyone surfing Reddit at work.

edit4: 160 and climbing. Comments are getting weird. This is a joke thread, post jokes plz. Will report back

edit5: 300+ and going strong. They say fame corrupts everyone, but I will never forget where I came from.

edit6: PEASANTS! BEHOLD MY KARMA AND WEEP

edit7: all derogatory comments about my edits will be referred to r/awardspeechedits for ongoing roasting

How awesome would it be to have raids in save the world?

Posted: 20 Aug 2018 06:27 AM PDT

Imagine having tonnes of bosses with different mechanics and it would be the most challenging activity in the game and receiving exclusive and extremely powerful unique weapons and heroes

Anyone else find it funny how BR people always clickbait skins with save the world stuff heros?

Posted: 20 Aug 2018 12:12 PM PDT

Ive atleast seen like 50 things where it says the new road trip skin is the cloaked star from save the world and tge oblivious BR people just eat it up. And like all the leaks where it shows ken as a skin in BR, its getting kind of annoying.

Global should stay down and never come back

Posted: 20 Aug 2018 08:34 PM PDT

Global chat has nothing but toxin from BR kids and spam bots, it might as well not exist. Only chat that should be brought back is the FC chat.

Global chat even without spam comprises of nothing more than kids scamming kids or begging non stop. The game runs just fine without global chat. The frequency of "trade at my hb type 123" is almost as annoying as spam bots.

Melee is GREAT...until you get nature husks, bees, multiple blasters, and lobber gas.

How to HAVE TRAPS STRONGER THAN THE ONES IN JAPAN with MachinASSt Thora

Posted: 20 Aug 2018 02:24 PM PDT

DO YOU LIKE TO BUILD TRAP TUNNELS? DO YOU WANT TO DANCE FOR THE WHOLE TIME IN HORDE? WELL DO I HAVE THE LOADOUT FOR YOU. First we go through each individual part of the loadout, if you want to know how to make a tunnel that can literally disintegrate husks scroll down.

  • HERO OVERVIEW

MachinASSt Thora is a substantially thiccn't reskin of MachinASSt Harper. That being said, they serve the same purpose: DISMANTLING ENTIRE HORDES WITH JUST A 4 x 2 TRAP TUNNEL. MachinASSt has a rather small base (ability not ass) at only 4 tiles however anything trap inside that base gets buffed in EVERY WAY POSSIBLE also the floor becomes basically floor spikes without the slow effect which is really good cause it stacks with traps on the ground.

  • WHACK... WHACK... WHACK...

MachinASSt has a kinetic overload so naturally we have to take advantage at free damage.

Husk Stomper: 135% Crit Damage, 23.5% Damage Resistance, 44% Phys Damage, 30% Crit Rating, 45% Damage to Snared, Snare for 6s.

IF something SOMEHOW gets out of your trap tunnel alive use this thing to finish it off, or you could go into the front lines if you get bored waiting for the mission to end.

  • SECONDARY

Now what happens if you can visibly see your trap tunnel being overwhelmed? (and you cant see any propane)

Dragons Roar: 20% Fire Damage, 30% Damage, 75% Reload Speed, 30% Damage, 45% Damage to Afflicted, Roman Candle, Burn (Affliction for 6s)

Really any piercing weapons work, but the dragons roar is my personal favorite since it pierces through an entire horde with no limit and it spawns Roman Candles (they scale with your tech so they deal actual damage) along with affliction.

You could also use an obliterator because they too deal ALOTTA DAMAGE.

Obliterator: 30% Damage, 30% Crit Rate, 44% Phys Damage, 40% Headshot Damage, 36% Misty Damage, Headshot Explosions.

If you get a headshot explosion train it can and will clear your trap tunnel.

  • SPECIAL

As usual idaf whats in this slot, you already have a hammer for kinetic overload and a trap tunnel clearer so you can put whatever you want in this slot.

  • MY PERSONAL TRAP TUNNEL BUILD

I like time-out rooms in my trap tunnel, they give 3x the amount of traps you're supposed to have on one wall.

THIS TRAP TUNNEL RIGHT HERE THIS ONE CLICK HERE

I went with a skeleton like build so that you can clear the trap tunnel effectively and target big boys that you know are going to tank all the traps for the small husks.

  • TRAPS AIN'T GAY

These make-up professionals will make your traps more enhanced.

SUPPORT BONUSES - You got options my guy

  1. Wild Fragment Deadeye - Movement boost for faster trap relocation
  2. Guardian Bull - Extra crit chance for that good kinetic overload.

TACTICAL BONUS - MegaHUNK Kyle: The WHOHMP is very useful when you place it on a trap tunnel because everything is dying within the base area so you get allot of WHOHMPS

  • HOW TO USE THIS THICCIE (letters arent spaced out because she isn't a true constructor thiccie)
    • Since you only have a 4 tile radius you need to make your trap tunnels compact and powerful which is why i like time-out tunnels

Theres really nothing else as straight forward as this class, just build a tunnel, slap your base on it and listen to the sweet sound of spikes, fire, darts, gasssss, electricity, and the occasional WHOHMP.

[Suggestion] Loot sharing

Just a simple option that you can turn on and off, on by default. F*cking sick of people helping themselves to my supply drops and BASE recycling.

Why Epic perk-up is the most rare reward?

Posted: 20 Aug 2018 03:34 AM PDT

Hear me out. You can't get Epic perk up from weekly store, it is rarely in rotation for Twine and Canny (in Twine there is always one mission with Legendary, but usually more) and in horde bash.. I've seen it only in 70 mission and not all the time. Why is this a thing... siting on thousands of legendary perk up not to be able to upgrade since Epic perk up is nowhere to be found.

edit: Thx everybody for the heads up for the 4x Epic perk-up mission.. just grinded 1300+ worth. And on a side note RTX 2070 will be just 499usd so lets hope for prices of GTX 1080 will be dropping drastically in next few months...

Suggestion for an Event: "Downpour Dash" - A checkpoint-based, run-and-gun-like-hell co-op survival mission, similar to "F**king Run!" from F.E.A.R. 3's multiplayer.

Posted: 20 Aug 2018 08:55 PM PDT

Fight through the horde, race to the checkpoints, and stay far enough ahead of the dreaded Downpour to reach Lars at the evacuation point.

Downpour Dash Gameplay Features: (For added dramatic effect, read in the vocal style of J.K. Simmons, Matthew Mercer, or Panic Room-era Jodie Foster.)

  • Teams are limited to only one of each Hero type, no doubles allowed. Didn't load up quick enough to lock in Penny's thiccness on this Dash? Tough. You're running with Sarah or Southie or Spitfire (Jonesy if you're desperate) or whomever the hell else RNGesus llama'd into your lap. Better luck next time. Pick one and GO!

  • All players begin with a basic green assault rifle and sword, as well as a package of materials (similar to Challenge the Horde), then agree upon a difficulty level. You gotta start somewhere.

  • Hoverboards are disabled, so get to steppin'. You could use the cardio anyway, tubby. Too much bacon in your diet.

  • Harvesting is disabled. It's too slow and slow equals dead.

  • Enemies drop ammo and ammo-crafting mats to keep your guns a-poppin' and the husks a-droppin'. Reload on the run because the storm won't wait for that little progress bar to fill and neither should you.

  • Caches at checkpoints grant weapon-crafting mats to boost your firepower from pew-pew-pew to click-click-BOOM. You get what they give you, so make your crafts count and quit begging for malachite, you shrimpy little nooblet.

  • All four players must group within the boundary of each checkpoint to receive their next crafting cache and unlock the next checkpoint. I repeat...ALL FOUR PLAYERS. IN THE BOUNDARY. TO ADVANCE THE MISSION. That means you, Jonesy. Fall in or fuck off. Chase Lobber skirts on your own time.

  • Craftable traps are restricted to healing pads and red bounce pads, so you can zoom-zoom like a Mazda commercial if the storm starts nipping at your heels, then patch yourself up once you're out of danger range.

  • Revives are quick and easy, but if one player diess in the Downpour, there's no respawn and everyone fails the mission. Help each other out, no Hero left behind. You live together or you die together, simple as that.

  • All players must rendezvous at the final checkpoint to complete the mission. If Lars leaves without you, it's your own damn fault. Have fun being Husk food, especially you, Jonesy, you prick. Good luck hoofin' it to Homebase in this weather.

OK, that's pretty much the gist of it, and good timing too, I can see clouds coming in from the west. Time to lace up and load up, Heroes. The Downpour is coming. Are you ready to run?

As the title says...He's turning 12 on Friday, and I was thinking about getting him this as a present for his birthday.

Do you guys think it's something he would like?
