♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Game - Waste of money
I've spent the last 30 minutes trying to adapt to its stupid system.. 4 hits to die on Easy?
I've played shooter games like Doom and Doom eternal and completed them on nightmare..
Played Killing floor 2 for 1300 hours and finished its achievements and this stupid game wasted my time because its system is broken. There's nothing to replenish your health.
* There's no hp pickups from when you kill enemies? Really?
* I've got tons of money but the idiot who sells stuff doesn't have anything to sell me and I have to face the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ boss with 25 hp.. ♥♥♥♥ this game
* Random rooms can kill you and have you start over
* No Armor pickups
* Pistol is too weak and once I got stuck and there was no where to go but the final boss
* There's a latency in the game itself (GTX 1070 and i7 4790k)
* You have to start over each time you die? WTF!
* WTF is wrong with (Too far shots?) really? This is the most stupid thing I've ever seen
The music is awesome but the developers screwed up big time when they didn't enable hp pickups from enemies..

you thought you were gud, but you wasnt
git gud

Just messin with ya, it's a *ROGUE LIKE* game, surprise! When you die, you stay dead.

It feels like you want to play this game more casually and want an easier gameplay. Yes BPM is hard, harder than all these little kids games you mentioned. Yes, I was lvl 20 before you were born in both KF1 and KF2. Been there, 3000 years ago. It wasn't so hard, just grindy.

BPM has a tough learning curve. Just play more, you will quickly get the hang of it and blaze through the 1st levels without getting hit. Yes, the "final bowss" you mentioned is a weak åss normal boss. It's not the final boss.
The game appears to be hard, but it isn't so much once you know the mobs and their patterns. It feels good to die and to improve a little bit each time. The only thing which upgrades each time you die is yourself. Because you learn.

All of the pickups you are mentioning are random drops found in chests.
Mobs just drop money. Sometimes.

The latency, I don't experience it with my crappy GTX 1060. But, try to lower the shadow quality as this really helps.

If you really want to play easy or jsut wann explore the game first, then I advise you to save scum like there is no tomorrow.

Make a copy, die, restore copy, go back to title screen, enjoy the "continue" button

Well, this game is a waste of my time. I'm not willing to play a game that ends when you take 4 hits in an entire fight of mobs.
And about the random drops.. they're mostly money that you don't get any benefit from.
I hope this game stays where it is.. unknown and not popular because it didn't even deserve the reputation I've heard about it.
The combat is really nice along with the music but the health issue is so ridiculously stupid.
I've just uninstalled this game, it was a waste of time trying it in the first place.
And btw, it seems that you only played 150 hours of KF2. So you're not really that good to be honest. you haven't even achieved most of the harder achievements. So, You don't know what you're talking about.

The game is a roguelike. Roguelikes typically have randomly generated levels, and luck-based gameplay. Starting over from the beginning on death is normal for the genre. All Roguelikes feature learning curves, which can be steep. It's the kind of thing which takes practice and patience to master. If you don't have the patience to start over after multiple deaths, avoid the genre in the future.

Struggling to master the game at first is normal. I was little different. I still can't beat the game with the toughest characters.

* There's no hp pickups from when you kill enemies? Really?

HP potions can sometimes spawn from the chests after beating a room and you can also find them in the shop

* I've got tons of money but the idiot who sells stuff doesn't have anything to sell me and I have to face the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ boss with 25 hp.. ♥♥♥♥ this game

The more money you spend in shops the more items that unlock from the shops so there's some progress to be made the more you play instead of just 100% starting over from scratch every time

* Random rooms can kill you and have you start over

Not sure what you mean here? There are no rooms that just hurt you besides the wall in item shops that sometimes spawns behind the chest for another chest and even then it's 100% optional

* No Armor pickups

Same as the HP potions, chests can sometimes contain them and the shop and sometimes you'll find little coin/key "wasters" (for lack of a better term atm) that can sometimes spawn some armor

* Pistol is too weak and once I got stuck and there was no where to go but the final boss

You'll find some shrines "hidden" in plain sight in some rooms that boost different stats depending on which one you find for the low price of just 1 coin! Sometimes it's extra damage! On easy mode the pistol is also plenty fine for the first boss. You'll most likely find a weapon room on the first or second floor and some chests can contain different weapons

* There's a latency in the game itself (GTX 1070 and i7 4790k)

Haven't noticed anything like this so I can't say

* You have to start over each time you die? WTF!

Just the style of game it is. Some people may not like this

* WTF is wrong with (Too far shots?) really? This is the most stupid thing I've ever seen

It prevents you from just camping in a corner and sniping everything. There's a range stat and having at least 2-3 in that makes a HUGE difference. Different weapons have different default ranges as well. Usually only an issue on the first floor.




If you need any more tips or help you can feel free to add me or just ask on here

git gud.

it's a roguelike game, you're pitiful if you cry that much when you get hit 4 times in a run. there's a dodge button for a reason

Without shop upgrades and unlocked character abilities it really feels a but empty at first, but once you play it out, you start feeling the grind. I was also about to drop the game on first hour or two, however, decided to finish the game at least to final boss, since im also hardcore on FPS and Doom Eternal as well. Now i cant remember a day when i havent thought about few runs for 30 minutes off the work. Roguelike is a really interesting area for FPS, especially if you looking for consistent desire to play one game, cuz it brings you different experience every time you play. Not without flaws of roguelike though - high entry level, not for everyone.

So yea, git gud, feel the rhytm, learn the first boss, the rest is a speedrun)

I mean if you don't like it, get rid of it. You can attempt a refund, and tell them that it's too hard. But don't come in here looking for sympathy because instead of practicing and getting good, you play for what I assume to be less than 5 hours with very little knowledge on the game mechanics. You compare this game to KF and Doom. But I hate to tell you this, it's not them. This game has its own mechanics. There is a practice mode if you need training wheels, that's what it's there for.

ah yes, another whiner. either git gud or git out. welcome to the roguelike genre

Complaining about health when I just finished hard mode as Odyr xD

I dont think anything anyone says will change your mind. BPM is an amazing game.
Like someone said earlier every single room has 1 random "shrine" in it. This can be a 1 coin upgrade to any stat, a dagger shrine, 3 mystery chests or a coin pot. Nearly all of them are useful.

Well, from what everyone is saying.. I have to look around to get some "Luck" finding hp before fighting the first boss.. question: What if I die after that? will I repeat the entire playthrough or just the next boss I died at?
DoomsterEG Feb 17, 2021 @ 1:46pm 
Yes you would. But the entire game isn't very hard to complete on easy with default health and equipment.
