thoughts on new updates(beta?)

[chand3123k]

Seems like a lot of the new items are geared towards elemental weapons. I always thought they were fine where they were, but now they are even stronger. I am glad though they fixed burning eye (the one where burn ticks faster). I never picked up that item, now I can see myself picking it up. Overall, elemental weapons are even more fun (they were my favorite to play even before)

Etsy's couch unfortunately is still very irrelevant.
Streamer on Random weapon start is still awful on max difficulty. I was hoping that character would be rebalanced so we don't either need to start with slingshot or a wrench. I don't think the new item list will help this character. While I don't think every character should be balanced by Random weapon start, I do like to do my winstreak based off of Random character/random weapon start. and there is something to be said for when Streamer is correctly balanced, as it feels there is only currently very few weapons Streamer can use.

Fast Learner so far feels really awful. I was able to win D5 by forcing sticks early on. I haven't found any other viable solutions. I think being able to gain one level after the initial stage would make this character playable. Right now, it feels like trash to me.

Am so excited for multiplayer that everything could get a 50% nerf and i'd still be here happy. shrug. The minmaxy details are well above my ability that I just play what feels fun for as long as it feels fun then move on.

The elemental stuff is interesting to me because it adds an extra layer of choice. Either the frost or the burning direction.

I honestly think the new unlocks are not that great and just bloat the pool even more -Celery tea is extremely situational
-Jelly is extremely meh (it should give 2 hp per different weapon)
-Decomposing flesh extremely situational too as you might not need to get more % life steal (depends on the character , weapons and so on)

-So three situational unlock items + not counting the ones that require no unlocks like snowball or clockwork and so on

-The ice tea item I find it extremely distracting with all the aliens with blue outline

I'm not saying the update is bad at all, I loved the Elite nerf we needed those!
But yeah new items seem very build specific

Also baby character should be able to start the game with the stick weapon

"Fast learner" the baby character is pretty unique not going to lie, but yeah it needs to be able to start the game with sticks , having to reroll first shop all the time until you get sticks was no fun

Takes a deep breath, "CONTENT!!!"

Finally Elemental gets some real support and synergy with other things.

Engineers/cyborgs might not dump crit any longer. I love it.

It's starts with two choices plank so I think one of them might have accidentally replaced stick.
