Episode 188 of the V-LOG has rolled out!

[Viking4s 10,791]

 

This is at 4:31...what is he saying...or, what does this mean?

"And we've decided to combine M1 and M2 so each turret will soon have a slot for one lidficator(?) which will change the turrets parameters."

Does he mean modifier maybe?

From what I understood it means that you will have only one Alteration box instead of 2 (one for M2 and M3). For me the big implication I can see is that you would be able to choose one alteration only, while before you could chose to combined M1 and M2.

Viking4s, I understood the same thing. And if this is true, it is pure BS. I use for example Hammer with the 2 alterations. I bought them both, because I want to use them both at the same time.

 

Why would I want to use only one?

[Maf 32,300]

 

This is at 4:31...what is he saying...or, what does this mean?

M1 and M2 alterations will be combined into a single slot. So all M1 and M2 alterations will all become one slot an you can only equip one of them at any time.

Why would I want to use only one?

I assume it's done for balance purposes, although that doesn't really make sense since alterations are not meant to make your turret more powerful. On the other hand, it's much harder to balance them if two alterations can be equipped at once. The perfect example is the two alterations for Hammer — without them the turret is mediocre at best, but with both alts it turns into one of the most powerful weapons. I'll miss being able to use both alterations on it  :unsure:

On top of what Maf said, I think the concept of the purpose of alteration has evolved to become simpler to use and code. As they want to create 4 alterations per turret it means that it would be very complex or even impossible to create 4 that are compatible.

It is true that Hammer had the best combined alteration M1/M2 combo while the possible alteration combo for the other turret where meh. So it will be a loss for those players, still it allows variation and fit for specific game play.

[ByeByeBye 1,747]

Can you imagine if PC and Mobile players were separated? The number of players online is already low, if they split them between PC and Mobile, it will be even worse.

 

This is why I will not bother play on Mobile, because it's unfair to face PC players.

 

Unless you spend hours and hours on Mobile version, to master it.

Me thinks there may be lots of fresh mobile meat in the not too distant future.  I would be shocked if mobile responds anywhere near as accurately or effectively as PC keyboard controls...we will see, but I expect some easy-peasy slaughter.

Most probably they want to add a tactical element to all weapons, so instead of you for example equipping both alterations on Hammer, you're limited to equipping Slugger in long-range fighting and the other on in short-range, and not both at a single time to gain an even bigger advantage.

Aw man, that's gonna hurt in the feelings :ph34r:

[austen_pierce 1,948]

And just this morning I thought I would be buying more alterations on Halloween sale. Now - gonna be super cautious.

[Hancho 3,902]

So the current voice in V-Logs is @Maf aka MAFIOZINA???? 

[caiosilvac 567]

Magnum alterations could make it even more OP...

[Pyre 3,485]

Waw nives, ya really outdid yourself this time.

[a7x_Pedro48 13,999]

I didn't, but the multiple topics issue is the Forum showing its age.

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

This maybe a stupid thing to say, but Maf in the vlogs sounds like he has a tint of a British accent. Well at least to me that's what it sounded like.

 

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Just wanted to say.

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

Holy crap @Maf is the voice over 0.o

[Maf 32,300]

Yup, plot twist! :lol:

Though it will be back to Alex Lynch in the next episode. I was just a temporary replacement.

Thanks! Most people I meet actually say I have an American accent, which is very strange considering that I've never even been to the US. I try to speak British English, but I don't really like those heavy British accents, so I won't try to talk like that. It's not everyone's... cup of tea :ph34r:

 

If you have any more comments about me, please use PM. This topic is about the actual content of the V-log ;)

your voice is content in the V-LOG :P

[ThirdOnion 4,898]

I prefer the current voice-over to the usual one.

 

I hope the devs don't believe what they said about MM.

woow

[GuidoFawkes 2,361]

 

did you mean that in the ftuure we will only be able to use 1 alteration at a time..? so we can't use high capacity drum and slugger together at the same time?

[Maf 32,300]

Yes, exactly that. As a big fan of Hammer it's pretty bad news, but at the same time I've always known that the two alterations are way too OP together and need a nerf. Pretty sure Hammer suffers the most from this, since no other combination of alterations is equally effective, AFAIK.

[Pyre 3,485]

How much did Maf pay you?

[splitterpoint 10,986]

Hahaha I knew it... supplies that enhances supplies; double damage dealing even more damage with a drone equipped. I knew this would happen from the day you started the drone concept. Soon we will see drones that activate speed boost on speed boost of the.. speed boost. We might even get grip enhancers, weight enhancers or all sorts of temporary buffs all caused by these magical drones.

 

There is no benefit gained from permanent equipment anymore. Soon your M3's will be worthless and the strategy evolves around using the right drones at the right time. You can hop in the battle with M0's aslong as you have enough batteries, supllies and a drone that's adequately MU'd... Mark my words. The modifications M0, M1, M2 and M3 will be just as a relic as the old mission chain system which is now completely useless aswell.

 

So far the sourness; I love hearing that the developers managed to finish the mobile application. I really hope they can break the trend of the ongoing decreasing number of players and get new audience in, I'm rooting for this. The new paint looks good. I like that you made it a little cheaper aswell. The new alterations are a stunning idea; the more versatility the better... I've always liked to customize my own turret.

 

The video of the week was again bad if you ask me. I don't see how slaughtering (genuine) beginners is called skill. It also drives new audience away from this game. I've been doing this too, it just feels wrong.

I made my decision that I liked the current voice-over better before I learned that it was Maf's voice.
