I like how your chainsaw build was close to unkillable until you met that one trap with uh... spectres rofl.

Re: Death and Decay: More RPG! Scaling Monsters! New Beta v2.3!
I just want to say I've had a great time in DnD and feel like it's the complex doom that complex doom should have been. The monster additions feel smart and diverse, the difficulty is at a good spot where even maps I've played can sometimes give me trouble, and many of the weapon additions feel really cool. The progression feels nice, and the punishment for losing is fierce adding a good deal of tension to the whole equation.
My only real gripe at this point is that some of the unique weapons with unique ammo feel like a waste of money early on before you get enough of the ammo upgrades to start hoarding the special ammo crates. Early on they're very much a kind of "newb trap" though they have their place later. I'm not sure exactly what to suggest about it considering they're often uniquely powerful for their price, but often until the final quarter of a megawad will I feel confident in purchasing them. I do understand why you're not allowed to buy ammo for the unique ones anymore (particularly the silver gun used to be pretty all powerful in the past). Still, some of them I find super fun but I realize there's just better early purchases with the same amount of credits.

Re: Death and Decay: More RPG! Scaling Monsters! New Beta v2.3!
You can still buy ammo for those, but it becomes costly in the long run. Some charisma and/or Munitionist perk helps for those weapons. Some weapons require a different set of stat and perk points spent to make them shine better. It's intentional so that people can play and see that not every weapon will be the best with a single build.nax wrote:I just want to say I've had a great time in DnD and feel like it's the complex doom that complex doom should have been.

With 3.0 out should we expect updates?
Re: Death and Decay: More RPG! Scaling Monsters! New Beta v2.3!
Yes in a week or two I expect to be done with the update. I'm pretty much testing and doing maintenance over the new features. Also messing with a couple features I didn't have time to add, and I'm slowly adding small prototype versions of those.Ancalagon wrote:With 3.0 out should we expect updates?

Where is the Intermission music from, especially the first one, I feel like I've heard it somewhere before
Re: Death and Decay: More RPG! Scaling Monsters! New Beta v2.3!
It's one of the four menu songs in Blood 2: The Chosen. Honestly, one of the few good things about that game is the music and I found it fitting.Untamed wrote:Where is the Intermission music from, especially the first one, I feel like I've heard it somewhere before

Re: Death and Decay: More RPG! Scaling Monsters! New Beta v2.3!
Will you be fixing the altfire of the Laser Pistol?
I feel like it seems to hit only half the time
or only when I'm at low-point blank range
I just missed a mancubus with it, and I was aiming straight at it
Reminds me of Morrowind

Re: Death and Decay: More RPG! Scaling Monsters! New Beta v2.3!
Laser pistol attack has limited range on alt fire on purpose. Range increases the more you charge it. I've increased the range a little bit for the next version but it'll still stay limited.Untamed wrote:Will you be fixing the altfire of the Laser Pistol?

Alrighty
What about Accessories?
Do they ever spawn, or just very rarely?

Re: Death and Decay: More RPG! Scaling Monsters! New Beta v2.3!
Yes they spawn after you hit level 24 and if the monster level is around 20 IIRC. It's very rare for one to spawn, but they'll spawn.Untamed wrote:Alrighty

I changed how they work for the new version so they'll be spawning more frequently.

Re: Death and Decay: More RPG! Scaling Monsters! New Beta v2.3!
Sneak peek at one of the newest features I've just finished for the new version:
It should be obvious where I got the inspiration for this one. Open for ideas by the way.
Code: Select all
==========================
==== ELITE DROPS INFO ====
==========================
* Elites have a 2% chance of dropping a rare item, called an "Orb". These can be used for various things to empower you in different ways.
1. Orb of Enhancement
Allows the user to improve the quality of the currently selected weapon upon use, increasing its damage.
Increases damage of selected weapon by 1%, up to 25% total.
2. Orb of Spirit
Grants the user a random stat upon use, with each stat having a certain weight.
Stats can go above 100 with this orb, but you still can't get above 100 by leveling.
Charisma has lowest weight, followed by Vitality and Bulkiness. Dexterity, Strength and Intellect have highest weight.
3. Orb of Corruption
A very rare and unpredictable orb. All effects of this orb are permanent unless stated otherwise.
Can do any of the following:
* Nothing
* Reduce health capacity by 10. (Will not drop below 100, which is base)
* Reduce current weapon damage by 10%. (Can drop it down to 0)
* Reduce movement speed by 2.5%. (Won't reduce below 50% movement speed)
* Take all ammo away. (Can still buy etc.)
* Reduce backpack count by 1.
* Reduce damage by 75% for the duration of the map. (Not affected by Orb of Affluence)
* Increase current weapon damage by 20%. (Max 400%)
* Grant current weapon 5% increased critical strike chance. (Max 100%)
* Add 25% additional critical hit damage to current weapon. (Max 200%)
* Increase movement speed by 5%. (Won't increase above 150% movement speed)
* 1% additional chance of rare drops from elites. (Max 20%)
* Give +5 to a random stat. (Follows stat rules of orbs)
Chance to do something bad is higher than chance to do something good. (30% vs 20%) Chance to do nothing is 50%.
Also, a hint: It's chance to do something increases should the conditions of other things it can do are reached.
Example: If you already maxed out on 3 bad things it can do, chances of it doing a good thing increase by the reduction of those 3. (So 35% chance to do something good)
The above example can work the other way around as well, so be careful!
4. Orb of Repentance
This orb is one of the rarest, even rarer than Orb of Corruption. It allows you to undo the effect of the most recently used orb.
You can't repent the effects of another Orb of Repentance.
5. Orb of Calamity
Turns a random orb in your inventory into another. It can't turn into another Orb of Calamity nor will it change an Orb of Calamity.
If you have no other orbs, then it'll do nothing.
If you get an Orb of Repentance through this, and if you use Orb of Repentance, you'll get back your Orb of Calamity.
6. Orb of Affluence
The rarest of all the orbs by far. It doubles the effects of the next orb you use.
This can stack. So if you use another Orb of Affluence, your next orb effect will be quadrupled etc.
Max stack is 16 times the effect, which is 4 orb uses.
If the use of an orb under this effect violates the requirements, it won't be used.
Example: Your Orb of Affluence quadrupled the effect of next orb. If you use Orb of Sin and have not enough stats to spend, you'll not be able to use the orb.
7. Orb of Prosperity
Increases health and armor caps by 1. (Max 500)
8. Orb of Wisdom
Increases exp gain from monsters by 1%. (Max 250%)
9. Orb of Greed
Increases credit gain from monsters by 1%. (Max 250%)
10. Orb of Violence
Increases a random weapon category's damage by 1%. (Bullet, shell, elemental etc.)
11. Orb of Fortitude
Another very rare orb. Increases health and armor caps by 1%.
12. Orb of Sin
The second rarest orb. It provides bonuses but takes away anywhere between a total of 1 to 8 randomly selected allocated stat points.
Orb of Sin can't be used if you have less than 8 allocated stat points.
The orb can do the following with equal probability:
- Give 4 random stat points.
- Give 1% crit chance for a random weapon you own. (Max +20% on a weapon)
- Give 5% crit damage modifier for a random weapon you own. (Max +100% on a weapon)
- Give a random perk point.

What server is this happening on? The server might have disabled the researches being researched so your medikits might need the proper research in order to work.UAC-Janitor wrote: ↑Sun Oct 08, 2017 4:12 pmIs there a Cvar to reset everything to default?

The cvar for that is: dnd_allresearchesfound --- Set this to true to enable all missing features from the menu and your character.
