This all actually looks incredible, the only nitpick, and it is a nitpick, is that the alt skins are just simple pallet swaps (so far), it'd be nice to see some more significant changes to skins as unlocks, like the samurai armour for merc, or the deadbolt helmet for bandit in ror2

@vermilionshadow Жыл бұрын

I super agree with this one, simple palette swaps are boring. Ones that they can sneak in nice lil touches to the alternate skins (like Deadbolt Helmet for Bandit) is cool.

@heronvitor6886 Жыл бұрын

to be fair, the graphics of the game are VERY simple, so i don't think we could ask for more than that.

@jakeberry5036 Жыл бұрын

@@heronvitor6886 you underestimate sprite work in general, they could defo do more with it. Don't get me wrong, I know why they're palette swaps, means they just have to change colours and don't need to reanimate anything, but I'm just saying it'd be nice. Still a nitpick tho

@TheGreenDigi Жыл бұрын

@@jakeberry5036 Problem with that would be they would have to make new versions of every animation for every skill for every unique skin. It's not as simple as it is with a color swap. It gets even more problematic when official modding is introduced and modders make their own alt skills with their own animations

@jakeberry5036 Жыл бұрын

@@TheGreenDigi just replied to some other dude and I said the same thing, I understand the extra workload alternate skins and animations put on, I've done enough sprite work myself to recognise it first hand, but it's not unattainable, and could defo be done relatively quickly (I.e. 1 custom skin + animations per character would fine). It's just a nitpick anyway, but bringing up modding is interesting, as people will prolly be making custom skins and characters regardless. I just think it'd be nice to bring back the monsoon rewards from ror2 (beat monsoon with a character, get their cool skin)

One of the big things I wanted Sniper to Do that I thought would make him WAY better would be if he could pierce enemies in the way of his shot. Similar to what the Railgunner does in Risk 2. It could do less damage as it went through enemies or something, but do extra damage if it hits the intended Target. As a Sniper Main it just always felt like he couldn't really deal with multiple targets at later stages, at all. Really fun until you actually play long enough.

While I'm still not happy that Ror2 has just been dumped for this I still think it will be a fun play. Alt skills are one of my favorite things in Ror2 but what I hate the most about it is when it doesn't cover my most disliked skill. I hope maybe not on launch but you can add more alt skills to try and give every skill an alt version allowing players to enjoy characters they otherwise might not.

@benmay1294 Жыл бұрын

RoR2 didn't get dumped. It'll still be updated and worked on, they have another dlc planned after all. I imagine it just has taken a lot of time transferring the work to Gearbox studios and getting them all setup to work on it

@Ben May I know, it's the same people who are in charge of the console version. The extremely buggy yet to get the DLC console version. I have no faith in gearbox, and they are yet to prove they're willing to work on ror2 with any quality or speed. Plus, these devs, the ones that owned ror2, have dumped it for this

@Buglin_Burger7878 Жыл бұрын

These all look really amazing! My only concern is with the Engineer's new turret. Overwhelming power can be fun but this also reminds me of the Pyro in TF2 and how the Gas Passer frustrates allies in Co-op since they are unable to contribute in a meaningful way. It is so powerful that it can feel like a requirement. It is cool to see an turret which is making use of the low health items in RoR1. This can lead to a very opposite builds for Engineer compared to what you're normally after which is really nice. I'm just afraid it will be way too strong or way too weak since it deals purely in extremes. I hope you can find a healthy balance for it.

I’m so excited for this game, I especially appreciate what y’all are doing with loader. He feels much more in line with ror2 loader with his aimable grapple and the dive punch. In ror2 she is one of my favorite characters due to her high mobility but in ror1 he always felt a bit boring, sure he’s strong with invincibility and high damage punches but he never felt nearly as fun. Game looks great 👍
