Digital Deluxe edition on GMG using code RQMLNJ-5KWOYJ-1P6B4A = £20

It would be rude not too !!

Tempted to give this a go. Having never played the first one is this much different to L4D/2? Engine and gameplay look quite similar from the footage I've seen.

If you own LFD/2 and are not a KF1 fan I don't think you would drop £20 on it tbh

You confused me..

Why would you see tearing do you use vsync and get 120fps? Then you mention flickering you have me confused if you are using no frame limits and just playing or if you have a proper setup of application controlled vsync and ingame vsync on with 120fps.

I never mentioned I got tearing once in any of my posts. :confused:

I have specifically mentioned flickering which probably is a PhysX or another kind of bug as mentioned in the article I linked to. I can't get to the bottom of it.

God I love killing floor 1 when time slows down and you pop the skulls off enemys with a handgun mmmmmmm

Does Killing Floor 2 have any of those crazy hacked 100+ player servers yet or any at all with more than 6 players?

apart from cost what's the difference between the standard edition and the deluxe edition?

thanks Aedus, looks like all cosmetic stuff, may save the £7 and just get the standard version.

Is there a friendly video guide out there that explains the trading system and perks, weapons etc?

ED209 · 25 Apr 2015 at 15:52

is there a single player mode where you can play with AI's and not players?

wondering as I don't want to jump in to online play and not play well due to never playing the game before

soo tempted to buy it!

how many people on OCUK play the game each night?

It's very straight forward.

Right now there's 4 perks, each perk generally uses a single type of weapon, so Commando is assault rifles, Support is shotguns, Medics are the medi weapons and berserker are melee weapons, you can use other weapons on other perks, but a commando will have bonus damage etc while using an assault rifle. They also have other benefits, like support can distribute ammo and medic can heal.

There's a certain number of rounds depending on what the server is set up as, 7 rounds is normal, after each round the trader appears, which you can find from the compass at the top of the screen as the wave is occuring, or the arrows which float around your screen after the wave has finished, at the trader you can refill your ammo, buy weapons and buy body armour. You can also pick up weapons around the map to sell them to the trader for extra dosh. With weapons there's a weight limit, so you can only carry a certain amount, so you have to have enough money and weight capacity to get them.

After the last wave there's a boss which you have to kill, so make sure you stock up fully after the final wave has been.

Thanks, what do those blue and red bars above players indicate? Is there a way to know who is carrying what perk, as it seems pointless me running to a medic who can heal himself.

Edit - Sweet. Didn't know we can set up our own dedicated servers this easily

ED209 · 25 Apr 2015 at 18:38

any tips for the first time player of the game? (not played killing floor either)

can add me to steam if anyone wants a extra player but doesn't mind me being new to the game

Awesome. I like Tripwire, I really do. More than happy to give them my money for a game. I actually feel like they care about their players, and genuinely want to make a great game for people to enjoy.

Also, ED209. Cracking username, also I added you on Steam. Not playing KF2 massively at the moment, but happy to jump in for a few games if you're around on Steam. I'm still pretty low levels, although loving the support perk - as per my usual favourite in KF! (AA12 is EPIC!)

ty, been using it since gaming online and never changed it lol

played for a good few hours tonight, commando is now level two. found it easier online with others o help out than on your own where you just get bombarded even on normal! this may change once you get a better level and more guns.

can you buy better guns permanently unlocked or do you always progress through the rounds and buy better guns?

Is there anyone here who didnlt like KF1 but likes KF2?

Trying to decide...

The game has not changed in any meaningful way. If you didn't like KF1 you will not like KF2. The core gameplay is the same.
