bring back the septic spreader please!
I miss the artillery boy lobbing a glob of red death from cover, it was fun having to find good fighting ground when you saw them. I know they're bugged now but i don't want them to be purely line of sight shooters, we need at least one enemy that does indirect fire and these guys are perfect as they were on day 1.

The new bugs got a raw deal, I hope we don't see them get nerfed any further than they already are.

"plz balance new bugs"

*Bugs nerfed out of existence*

"wait now you just removed the entire update. seriously?"

also where's the new boss thing on the steam banner? i've played like 30 missions and never once seen it. i hear it's like, a quarter of the size they said it would be.

It is a bit weird that they made an artillery enemy and then immediately removed the artillery from it.

Yeah, I hope they bring it back.
Was quite a lot of fun but I could understand from a solo or new player perspective that maybe they were a bit tough to deal with.

We brought this up; apparently the patch was supposed to fix their LOS to prevent them from just shooting into walls; he is supposed to lob stuff at you from a distance and he'll be back being sniped by frozen spears, thrown axes, lok1's, PGL's, lasers, plasma missiles, bulldogs, coilguns, m1k, crossbows...basically anyhthing that can still essentially one shot them from a distance

It got the Warden Lobotomization treatment.

They're still going to require los, though, right? Even after the bug gets fixed they'll still basically be a direct fire enemy instead of artillery. Kinda boring.

while your at it can you make my sleeves stop vanishing? its getting annoying.

They turned it into a melee enemy .. except it has no melee attack.

Seriously these claims about it trying to hug the player most of the time instead shooting goo are not exaggerated at all ... I've seen it with my own eyes during several missions. They are as deadly as a lootbug now.

yea well done lads now they buffed it and it doesn't even need line of sight anymore so it can kill you behind walls genius move 10/10

idiot devs, can't make an ai thats either not overpowered or stupid ?

Thats the whole idea of an artillery...
