It's good. Really good.
early acess slop for trannoids
It's great, the only issues people here have, aren't even related to the actual game
Red pistol is OP, broke the other two pistol modes.
One thing that worries me about the way UK's being released in stages is that it's not gonna be properly balanced; the amount of blowback Hakita got over the rework to make the grapple fist less broken demonstrates that if he has something live which improperly weights its own usage, he'll have a hell of a time fixing it because people will cry and scream about nerfs ruining their fun.
why the frick would a dev nerf the player in a singleplayer game in the first place
once you got the slingshot pre-nerf, there was no reason to do anything but grapple and shotgun swap every enemy in the game
Hakita's vision of the game has a variety of viable techniques for every encounter, and one super powerful technique breaks that vision
Because in an action game, the fun comes from every tool having its own advantages and drawbacks, and figuring out how to balance those in real-time based on situation and preference. If you have 3 gun modes, and one of them is better than the other two in every possible way, then you really only have 1 gun mode. The other two are just a wasted slot. They're not fun to use because when you use them, you're just gimping yourself.
And you can go "WELL THEN JUST DON'T USE IT" but that's a shit argument. I'm not the game designer. It's not my job to establish the rules of the arbitrary challenge to make it fun and engaging, that's what Hakita collects his paycheck for. If I wanna "make my own fun" I'll turn off Ultrakill and open Unreal Engine, I'm not gonna pay for the fricking privilege.
A good game is one which is well-balanced. This includes single-player games. Frick your power fantasy, if a weapon is too good it needs to be nerfed so that there's a reason to use the other weapons alongside it. You'd think that you frickers would understand this given how much this board whinged and cried about Doom 2016's Super Shotgun and Gauss Cannon when Eternal released.
Imagine for a moment that the normal gun instakilled every enemy, then ask yourself this same question.
I haven't played in a while. How does it work. Last time I played was when the rocket launcher came out, honestly I was a little underwhelmed with the whole update
So the red pistol you hold down alt fire to charge it up, and it fires a piercing beam that ricochets off of surfaces.
So it's like piercer and marksman had a baby, it pierces AND it bounce-auto-aims. Technically the pierce takes longer to charge and technically the auto-aim doesn't stack as fast so situationally marksman is still useful (and there are a few strats where piercer is still viable) but it's not
>pistol type A
>pistol type B
>pistol type C
It's more like
>pistol type A
>pistol type B
>pistol type A+B II Turbo HD Remix
Does it have the slab variant?
yeah
it deals more damage and only holds one "charge" at a time
The auto-aim on it fricking sucks though. Red pistol is only good in tight spaces where it can bounce a lot or with exploding projectile-spammy enemies (i fricking hate soldiers) but otherwise the marksman is still king
Yeah it definitely doesn't obviate marksman quite as hard as piercer. But it straight up makes piercer pointless.
Depending on arena design it could still potentially work if Piercer could like, shoot through walls as well as enemies, Farsight style. I mean with it breaking glass that is still kind of its base gimmick. Because then it has a direct advantage that a ricochet gun can never have. But the arena design in UK tends to be pretty open and free of cover so the ability to pop enemies through walls/corners is situational at best. Piercer is still basically just your mega-buster and when you're charging up shots you almost always wanna have sharpshooter.
piercer does more damage, and I think the damage can be increased with coins far more than the sharpshooter can
Yeah but, and this is my controversial opinion moment, does that really matter? I mean is anyone playing UK going "yeah but I wish I could just deal 25% more damage"? It's a game about technique and style, I want weapons that work differently and have different behaviors and interactions, not a weapon that's "10% of the functionality of the other weapon, but it takes away more enemy HP".
I guess if you're into speedrun shit it matters but for everyone else, what's the point of running piercer over sharpshooter when the only advantage it offers is it kills in 2 shots instead of 3?
>but for everyone else, what's the point of running piercer over sharpshooter
Why wouldn't you run both?
the sharpshooter bounces off walls floors and ceilings and pierces a lot
you can charge it up so it bounces more
8/10
one of the best videogames of all times
>LE BUTTPLUG
ruined the community
awful devs, awesome game
with how bad p2 was i'm losing hope for act 3 though
>how bad p2 was
don't make me say it
i personally disliked it, normal enemies part took a lot of tension away from the main boss, unlike in p1, and the boss itself is a rehash of minos but without flesh prison, which was actually a good decision
>boss itself is a rehash of minos
this I agree with. I wanted a new boss not just harder minos.
to be fair, i never beat p2 because i got a bug where it softlocked me on the last arena with an unkillable sanded enemy, so i'm not beating it out of principle, this shit has been in the oven for so long and it's still half baked
hakita literally didnt playtest p-2 properly before it released so it released with quite a lot of bugs
I got that bug at least 5 times in a row, beat it later after they fixed the bug
good gameplay but the buttplug bullshit is gay and the "community" is aids
I like it. It scratches my itch for going fast and killing fast.
sure looks boring when you play it like that
hard damage needs to be more punishing
It might be the best. Might, you gays can still frick this up so don't get wienery.
I thought it was amazing. Then they released buttplug support. Now It's clear that it is in fact absolutely godlike
hell is alive
