>Stop thinking of her as a hardmode character
This is a very big hurdle for a lot of people. IDPD exist and for some reason people equate that to the character being harder. Blast Armor will literally destroy enough bullets to save you from what would be lethal damage for any other character and (as long as you aren't a gamepad player), you have a fuck-you-to-anything-on-the-screen (that also destroys bullets).

>Don't save Portal Strikes
Just use them. Don't spam them so that you're constantly on 0, just use them casually instead of coveting them.

>Don't be afraid of getting hit
You are not Melting. You are Rogue. Just facetank damage and keep pushing.

Another tip is to hold onto the rogue rifle for a while. It's a genuinely good weapon that holds up at least until the frozen city. I've taken the thing all the way to Loop 2 in 1 gun runs, but that is because I am not normal.

loop 0 seems the same. 60 fps makes the game easier.
loop 1-2 may be less bullshitty with telekinesis stacking and 1-shot missiles. It may be easier to get consistent loop 3+ without optimal mutations and weapons. There's also a grace period where campfire police don't rush you as fast (this has been a thing since beta). I need to test it out more.
One thing they buffed was open mind which helps with mutation RNG (no mods). Slightly more difficult with new red mimics that do 4 damage? I think.
>>
>>727731839
Another thing; A lot of times, people equate troubles they're having in rogue runs to the character, when a lot of the time it's just shit that would affect them while running as any other character, and they're only noticing it because they're eating shit. Just a couple of them that I've seen over the years.

>IDPD are too hard!
You have an opportunity to learn all of their nuances as Rogue that you can apply when you're running as any other character. They frankly don't matter until you're dealing with the flying hitlers that are Elite Grunts, which only appear postloop. Functionally they're not that different than bandits, save for the fact that they don't have range limitations (whereas any other gunslinging enemy won't shoot you if you're too far away, or too close)

>I'm running out of ammo too much!
There is a healthy chance that you're using an ammoless melee weapon. These will randomize the drops when you pick up ammo pickups at a 33% chance if it's in your offhand or a 66% chance if it's in your mainhand. The solutions would either be to mono-type on whatever weapons you're using (this makes ALL of the ammo drops drop for that type unless you're full) or to simply put down the melee weapon for something else.

>My blast armor blew up a(n explosive) car I was taking cover behind!
Why were you taking cover behind an explosive prop?

Any just two others that are actually character-related:
>My strikes are too weak!
You're not using them enough
>My strike ammo is gone!
You're using them too much

Separate yourself from the idea that rogue is a hardmode character, and you too can get good at videogames.

Did they rework chicken?

>>727737730
I was beelining for Rogue C and all it did was awaken some of the old techniques I'd use for loop 2+ rogue rifle only runs. I wasn't even trying to do a rogue rifle only run, it just happened.

One of my favorites is spamming the strike button when you're out of ammo in high-tension situations to reduce stress. Works better than you'd think.
>>
>>727737730
Thank you I don't feel alone in this struggle now

>>727737869
Aside from the Open Mind rework (It's +1 chest and a random chance for multiple other chests to duplicate) and a minor thing for Lil' Hunter (he will just fuck off if you kill everything else in the level), nothing was reworked. All the new content is purely additive.

Would I like this if I didn't like Gungeon? I know they're different in a lot of ways from the videos I've seen, but I remember them being compared a lot when they were new.
My problem with Gungeon was the first floor being too long and boring. Kill all enemies, then another wave spawns in, then another. First floor of Isaac is like a minute or less to know if you're getting good shit or not.

>>
>>727739972
>My problem with Gungeon was the first floor being too long and boring.
Yes. Because Gungeon is formatted more like a slower-paced dungeon crawler and Nuclear Throne is formatted like an arcade shooter. The two are incomparable when you look at the pacing and design philosophies that facilitate said pacing.

NT is the anti-gungeon, the game is blazing fast.

>>727739625
If you don't know what you want then that's the first thing you need to pin down. It's good practice to identify what type of general loadout you want by the time you reach level ultra, at the beginning of your runs.
>I want to use <this type of weapon> and <that type of weapon>. I need <these specific mutations for that> while I pad out the rest with generic stuff like bloodlust/scarier face/trigger fingers/etc
>I'm playing <character>. Is their Thronebutt worth taking?

For instance,
>I want to play YV
>I want to do a Bullet-centric ranged run
>I need Stress and Recycle Gland specifically for the run. I can optionally ignore Thronebutt
>Ultra A would be ideal so that I can boost my fire rate and use a wider range of Bullet weapons, particularly the Heavy weapons and Bouncer Shotgun.
>Ultra B is also valid if I took TB, because I can hexabraaap with most guns to control my ammo usage and delete anything in front of me

If you're still at a stage where you're figuring that kind of stuff out, you don't really need to do that. But it's something to keep in mind if you're not just coalescing into a perfect 9 mutation spc+ushov meta build.
>>
>>727740498
Also, work on your positioning and don't be afraid of getting hit. Conceptually speaking, you should not be putting yourself in literal positions where dodging is necessary, and as long as you aren't playing as Melting, you can afford to take a hit if it means getting yourself out of a bad position.

So they're definitely announcing a new NT game at The Game Awards, right? You don't just announce a big last hurrah anniversary update for a game a week before the big game announcement event without it trying to be an attempt to drum up hype.

>>727740308
If you're playing co-op then I recommend picking up Lucky Shot. Ammo returns may be randomized by type, but it's still a lot more incoming ammo that you DON'T need to share with the other assholes.

Another example of tailoring builds with goals in mind
>I want to unlock Melting's B Skin
>I am good enough to defeat The Throne as Melting, but not without Rhino Skin/Strong Spirit

>I will take Crown of Life, preventing all health pickups from dropping
>I will take Stress, then touch a maggot so that I'm always at 1/2 hp
>Bolt Marrow will be the safest of the ranged options. I'll also take Long Arms for protection
>There is a chance that a health pickup from an HP chest gets sucked into the portal. Just to be safe, I will pick up a Blood weapon if I see one so that I can get my hp back down to 1/2.

This is also the one, singular build in the entire game that wants Crown of Life. Consider using it if you haven't unlocked Melting B. Horrible crown.

>>727725990
What do you mean "net loss?" Cursed Caves and Jungle typically result in a net increase in rads, where the Jungle is also a free reroll after a full heal+ammo bump.

Eyes has no business getting a skin this cool.
>>
>>727741572
It's unintentional, but also purely visual. Allies' behavioral patterns aren't animation-based, but rather begin after an alarm finishes. You'll notice after they're summoned with the C-skin that they'll just stand around for about the same amount of time that the animation would play out, even if they're right in front of an enemy.
>>
>>727741787
This and Bandit's are easily my favourite, so fucking kino
I'm still really confused how to get Eye's though, as far as I'm aware the wording makes it seem like you can use Melee weapons but I beat the throne with a Jackhammer/Shovel and didn't get it
>>
>>727741821
ah ok, thanks anon
>>
>>727741929
The jackhammer isn't a melee weapon internally. Not due to the ammo usage, but because it doesn't swing. You can use stuff like the energy sword/hammer and it's still valid, but not the jackhammer.

If you want a less technical reason, you're pulling a trigger.

>Passive
As an old player, it's a little confusing to wrap your head around at first. The knowledge that they changed it so that they gave a separate input to scrollwheelup so that you can scroll up and down through your weapons, contrary to pressing a button to swap, makes it easier. It's really nice if you start a run with Crown of Curses since you can take two good weapons you see without completely committing to the curse gimmick, meaning you don't get cucked unless you take 3 of them

>Active/Thronebutt
It's like, okay. Tears deleting the bullets is nice and it's actually decent if you take Thronebutt, but it's not really that good without it. It feels like the tears were supposed to replenish so you'd get at least 1 use at the start of each level, but they don't.

>Ultra B
I haven't used it since it didn't seem very good

>Ultra A
6 weapons is really nice, in that you can be more flexible with your endgame builds. SPC+Ushov is almost certainly still gonna be the endgoal, but you can take other utility+damage weapons like the energy hammer and ultra crossbow with you, which is nice.

I think he was a good addition, and not a bad addition.

I might have looped when I played the game before but I basically have no idea how to play now. What weapons are good? What kind of weapon do I want in my hands at certain floors?

Yes, you have to be holding the black sword when the bosses die and do a full loop with it plus captain. Source, I did captain on a second loop after jobbing and it didn't count. It wouldn't be so miserable if the Black Sword's damage wasn't even less than the Shovel when you're actually alive. Best way to do it is to toss a Super Plasma Cannon shot at a boss and swap weapons before it connects.

I'm certain that they changed some of the weapon spawns. I got a Hyper Rifle on 3-3 and an Energy Sword on 4-1 after the update.
>>
>>727725054
The actual gameplay changes are marginal and if anything they made it easier. Explosions now only deal 5 damage per tick instead of 10 like before and open mind has has been buffed to spawn two extra chests instead of one.
>>
>>727755512
Did you hit any secret levels or crown vaults? Those up your difficulty and increase scaling, bringing you closer to the threshold for certain weapons spawning

>>727755835
I don't think so, but considering those are both 1 stage early maybe I accidentally went into a crown vault or something and just forgot.
>>
>>727755887
It probably wouldn't be that bad, anon. If you can loop normally then I'm sure you can get by just fishing for strong spirit and restarting if you don't get it.

It is not. I haven't been keeping up with the numbers for a while, but people have taken the game 20 loops deep (or further) without needing it. Thing of it is that when you're in deeploops or abyssal loops, Lucky Shot will help with the initial pushes to clear bodies, but doesn't really do much for you when you're on freak cleanup, where your ultra shovel is going to be doing most of the heavy lifting.

That being said, the mutation isn't *as bad* as people make it out to be. It's just functionally outclassed by other mutations.

>>727757316
I believe in you anon! On the bright side having few mutations and only needing to reach 1-1-L1 means you are afforded a great deal of freedom with switching weapons instead of sticking to whatever type you've specialized in
>>
>>727757316
If it's the case that you can't deal with IDPD very well, spend a bit of time fucking around as Rogue so you get a good feel of how their AI works.

As for The Captain herself; Most of her fight's super easy, with the sole exception of the burst shots she fires. You'd think those would be fucking nothing, regardless of whether or not you take a melee weapon, but their randomized spread after they explode really fucks you in the ass. You can anticipate them because they consistently occur after she teleports, but you really want to control where they fly to the best of your abilities so you don't get any surprises while you're positioning yourself. Everything else is more-or-less consistent.

>Move away from her when she does her radial pattern
>Get in front of her when she's doing her focus pattern
>Don't get midrange or she'll punch you in the face
>Don't get too close or she'll hug you

The only wildcard variant is the burst shots.

>>727757713
Only for the initial stages of the level. After a while the game becomes freak cleanup more than anything else, and like I mentioned in a previous post, the metastick is going to be handling that more than your spc.

Lucky Shot basically becomes a multi-character Gun Warrant when you go deep enough. That has merit on its own, but it's not Gun Warrant (which makes your Ushov swings free) and stops helping you when you get through the initial clusters of enemies and have to focus on freaks. Rabbit Paw never stops working, and even with the pickups entering blinkout sooner as you go deeper (which gives them a minimum lifetime of ~3 seconds since blinkout itself is unaffected), it's still superior for ammo returns. You just need to start pacing yourself a tiny bit when you go deep so you don't run out of rads or ammo.

How good are ultra weapons?
I avoid them cause I'm afraid of fucking myself over by running out of rads and having no ammo for my other weapon.

>>727760243
I find them to be pretty decent on horror with the increased rad cannister size
On others it may be ok if you've got a mutation for its weapon type but otherwise I tend to avoid them
>>
>>727760243
Ultra Shovel and Ultra Crossbow are integral if you're doing a meta or ranged meta run respectively, because the former has a trifecta of coverage+damage+utility and the latter lets you break walls (on top of having really good damage). Ultra Nader is fun since it has a black hole effect (including you) and good damage, while the Ultra Revolver and Laser Pistol have a good ammo:damage exchange.

The only outright bad one is the Ultra Shotgun, but it's only bad because it's outclassed by non-ultra weapons that drop when it does.

NT tierfagging is kinda retarded because the best loadouts are completely dependent on what your goals with a run are. L0 Throne, L1 IDPD, L1 Throne and L3+ have entirely different priorities.
E.g. while Extra Feet are normally useless, it's an excellent pick if you're just trying to unlock post-loop crowns and want to avoid getting cuntpunched by the IDPD Captain (or telekinesis'd by elites). On the other hand Trigger Fingers and Lucky Shot and other mutations that revolve around killing enemies are less useful for IDPD runs.

Bullet weapons in particular will knock it back while it's walking, too. If you take Gland and any Bullet weapon with reasonably tight spread, you can walk all the way back to spawn just unloading onto the thing if you really want to.

Raw ushov damage stops being enough to oneshot them after this point. Chances are that the reflected projectiles will finish the job, but it's something to be aware of. From this point on you need to worry about doubetapping Freaks with the ushov to kill them.
>Hyperspeed Ballmum
She isn't as hard in ranged meta since you can stunlock her with knockback, but in normal runs there is a nonzero chance that she just flies in your face at mach 10 and frags you. I like to stick around walls and dig holes to avoid that.

I just bought this game, about to stream it again today. So far, the weirdest thing for me is the portal to the next area pulling so strongly, feels weird that it's optimal to leave one dude hanging out so you can make sure you pick up all the goodies, because you get pulled in so far after it spawns when the last enemy is killed. But I don't know what the fuck I'm doing yet so could just be me.

No I will not spam my basic-ass weapon to save ammo when you made it feel like dogshit

No I will not track down your retarded punchout room to fight the gay rat
No I don't care about your "synergy" update where I need to get EXACTLY weapon A and B and NOTHING ELSE WORKS to make weapon A +1% more cool
And no I don't care if I perfect bosses I get more hp is TECHNICALLY not copying isaac. Isaac trading hp you proved you don't need for damage made sense. The fuck do I need hp for if I'm not losing hp to bosses?

etg is the most mediocre- roguelite i've ever played, which would probably be better if you, ironically, had less guns, and more ways to mod guns in unique ways
my dream "gun" roguelike would be have a noita-like system where you can both mod the weapon with various attributes, along with being able to mod the contents of a bullet/slug/etc and both the contents and ammo type havign diffrent ways of interacting with its payload
which is what i thought Wizard With A Gun was going to be but it was just fucking dont STARVE CLONE GOD FUCKING DAMMIT IM SO FUCKING MAD AT THAT GAME IT PISSES ME OFF HOW SUCH A GOOD IDEA WAS USED FOR THAT DOGSHIT

It's honestly a testament to Edmund's game design that Isaac is so successful despite the off-putting art and Edmund knows it.
I listened to a recent interview from him where he was talking about a basic card game he made that used tapeworms and another dev told him "You know, you could just change the tapeworms to trains and it would change nothing mechanically about the game? It would also probably sell more copies." and his response was basically "Yeah, I know.".

Mimics seem WAY more common now. Did they revert them back to 1/50?

At this point, he probably can't, it's his brand to be all fucked.

The man is loaded, he has no reason to give a shit about "branding". He's doing it because he thinks its funny.
In fact, he's always done it because he thinks so. Man was making fucked up dead baby game and benis on bagina game when he was a nobody on newgrounds, then kept making weird shit when he began gaining traction and when his stuff blew up.
His strategy always has been just making what he thinks is fun without any pretence of corporate safeness or caring if others will be put off by it and making tons o' cash from it.

It has been simply because Isaac was lucky enough to be a success before "roguelikes" (read: roguelite) were a dime a dozen
Almost all of his actual success is in isaac
Even meatboy, the only other game people know he made, is just "that red guy who's an item in isaac"

He ain't loaded, he's entirely considering Isaac 2 if he runs out of money and that's the kinda thing that nobody truly loaded would do as an artist. Mewgenics is something he's banking as bringing in the moolah because deep down the dude knows his scat fetish and 2 children and a wife dont come cheap alongside developing like 9 other games that nobody gives a shit about (frankly, rightfully so, most of them are just nothing except Time Fuck)

Apparently he summons guys in exchange for health, like Rebel, but they fire his weapons and consume his ammo pool.
The guys also cause more ammo to drop

that's what I read at least.

People will always be known by their biggest successful, if not for isaac he'd be that meatboy guy. But one way or another still doing just what he thinks is funny unless his stuff flopped so much he'd have to work for/under someone else, and it wouldn't really be his game then.
Plus I wouldn't call Isaac's success pure luck.
>>727791391
Fair point that I was probably talking out of my ass, I just kind of assume based on how highly popular Isaac is that he'd have some cash, didn't really know of his other likely expenses.

You are very misinformed in general, Mewgenics is kinda done dude. Its releasing in like February 11th or something, he's even doing gameplay videos of it to show off and generate hype because yeah, after 12 years of development people stopped giving a shit but now its actually in the 3 months of fixes and actual quality refining stage.

This is completely wrong, he has an extra weapon slot as his passive and his active shoots a ring of tears that do damage and delete projectiles. He can hold 3 tear charges and gains 1 every time he takes damage. Throne Butt makes it fully refill.

The original pitch kinda went nowhere and then was "cancelled". It was dormant for a long time and then Ed decided to pick it up again and has been grinding away at it. I know it doesn't have the Animal Crossing house management mechanic it was originally pitched with but I can't for the life of me remember what else has changed since the initial pitch.

>>727791391
As far as I can tell from a recent interview, he's doing fine. The initial money from being successful didn't really change him. He just buys more arcade cabinets and pinball machines now. Isaac 2 isn't really a money thing, it's an ideas thing. He used some of his ideas for an Isaac 2 in Repentance and won't start on an Isaac 2 unless he's confident he has enough for a new game.

I personally like that it's fast as fuck and extremely punishing.
Way better than enter the gungeon.

I was playing Megabonk before the patch dropped and it's fucking wild to go from something where you basically need something on in the background, to something where you zone out for 2 seconds and your run is fucked.

Y.V. is based on the logo for Venus Patrol, some kind of indie collective/fund/circlejerk thing which was kickstarted in 2012 and ran until 2015.
>>
>>727794989
Less that the plasma balls are easier to dodge, so much as it is that it's way easier to game elite shielders because of their teleportation. You can just straight-up ignore them as long as they don't teleport near you.

One of the most miserable updates in the game's history was the one where they broke elite shielder teleporting. They could just completely lock down areas and there wasn't anything you could really do about it sometimes.
