I remember charlie saying they'd only have one day to playtest 205, does this mean they plan to patch tomorrow? :p
I'm so psyched for this patch

MuYeah

Craaapp... yet another Kickstarter I have to be part of. Gonna be broke, and have way too many games to play once they all come out. Thanks though, wouldn't have heard about it otherwise!

If it's the same engine, it's the one you (Max) did/worked on, correct? Or have I completely lost my mind in thinking that you were (or were at least one of) the guru(s) behind it? Loved TQ, but it just wasn't gritty enough to my taste. Still one of the best (and more uniquely themed) ARPGs post-Diablo 2 if you ask me though (D2 being my heroin). Grim Dawn looks like the exact blend I've been craving for so many years (and one that a particular sequel coming out that I'm the beta for has, at least so far, completely failed at, sadly). Gotta start training up my clicking finger!

Please no more disabling abilities on the onos, it's bad enough that we have to put up with gore and stomp.

Smasher

I'm curious about what the "Charge" (from Schimmel) could be.. something like the old Onos charge?

Is there any footage of them at least?:)

Jibrail

+1 for some footage

DJPenguin

am too eager to see which babbler model you guys went with from that concept collage you released years ago. or were none of them chosen?

peregrinus

I thought the spidery one was chosen, it was used in the babbler king 'concept art'.

As much as I like all things slimy in virtual reality, I'd much prefer stuff growing from the infestation than Drifter mutation ^^

Twiggeh's idea is a pretty good start: <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=117856&view=findpost&p=1926345" target="_blank">http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/in...t&p=1926345</a>

how ive missed my surgical shotgun, my skills with the shottie in ns2 have been horrible compared to ns1. this bug has been one of the reasons ive stayed away from the shotgun in ns2

So I suppose this means you guys aren't removing the drifter? (Sounded that way based on yesterday's tweet)

To be honest, yesterday's tweet was kinda vague :P

I'm very interested to see the result after the level of thought for Alien Comm. v2.0.

peregrinus

I've read the new design notes on drifter 2.0

So it's only ability is the enzyme mist? And it can be used for scouting too.

Will it always be camouflaged even off of infestation? How will marines spot them and kill them?

PsiWarp

I hope Camouflage is similar to the evolution for lifeforms, so moving a Drifter is a risk for the Comm. to take in frequently traveled routes.

Scouting, enzyme mist, and cloaking attacks on marines. When you see a mist go down, the marine commander should scan to reveal the drifter so the marines can kill it. It's no different than a PvT starcraft match with observatories and scans.

I'm foreseeing lots of "Find the hidden drifter in marine base" minigames for the marines after the start of each match.

sounds awesome!!! :D
finally the people will (hopefully) get the gorge they want

PsiWarp

Hehe, Clog will be very useful as roadblocks. The Gorge can impede Marine advance/escape!

killer monkey

Sorry if this sounds dumb but, what is a Clog? I thought it was referencing the wooden shoes/how the gorges sound like them on.
