>>2105777Why haven't they fixed this in over 3 years?

It's really weird seeing there be two separate teams for Starstorm for 2 and Returns. Is there anything that's concerning about how the team handling Returns so far? From the consensus I gathered in these threads the team for 2 doesn't seem to be making it faithful to the original.
>>2107528They are both managed by the same person and a bunch of different trannies under him, versus original one dev SS
>>2107515nobody wants a repeat of that
>>2102949>>2103494this will sound like a shitty opinion but if they implemented a new mechanic like the artifact of potential mod (which is literally artifact of command but way more balanced), that could work as a bandaid fix if the game item pool gets too bloated
Honestly, if they bother working on another dlc I hope the theme will be about the stone golems + wisps, could get some new variants + bring back Colossus and the Ancient Wisp + whatever they wanna add of new.
>>2107774wasn't false son's dlc supposed to be "the golem one"?
>>2107777I guess? It's mostly Lemurians and a bit of Golem because of Aurelionite, I just want an excuse for them to bring back Colossus desu....
>>2107528Returns is sticking more to the original vision. 2's team has an absolutely pathetic track record of 2 complete survivors over the course of like 4 years, while the Returns team started earlier this year and currently has 4 survivors. Granted, 3D is probably harder to code in than 2D, and the entire Starstorm Team was abducted to make Alloyed Collective, but it's kinda ridiculous. Apparently, the modding API for Returns is getting completed, and that'll actually speed up dev time for SSR massively.
>>2107855>Returns is sticking more to the original vision.>when survivors lack basic things present in the original mod and play entirely differentlyhaha, yeah, sure.Pre-SotV SS2 was more accurate than SSR is. And that's just sad.
>>2108441Care to explain why?
>>2108532Go play nemmando in SS, SS2U, SS2O, and SSR in order, you'll see what i mean.It's hard to put into words if the other party hasn't done this, and usually by the time its been done they understand, so.
>>2108539>Just go play 4 different mods across 3 different games broIt's not a good look when you can't explain your stance with reasoning. But I'll take your word for it for now since I'm going through OG Starstorm.
>>2108631I can try regardless, it just sounds retarded (and/)or you won't have the necessary context to understand it if you haven't even played the original.
>>2108645Go for it. Any attempt at all is better than making statements without backing them up, it would make you a better man than most people on this website, let alone the internet. If I don't understand through lack of experience, then it's my concession that you have a better understanding of the subject. Plus you would give others a chance for others to jump into the conversation to disagree, or to back up what you're saying.
>>2108714Fine.>SScommando but melee, bleed DoT.The original and tied directly to the Variant system, so less flexible, but still good.He's Commando but different.>SS2Ucommando but close range, unique DoT.Leans into Procman but different, like original nemmando did for original commando, but adapting to the new game.The projectile can actually hit things instead of Bisoning out on random slopes.More variety thanks to how survivors work in 2, allowing full melee or a more distant approach, but the now-default (just before the final pre-SotV update, re: before this was SS2U) M2 sucks against anything that isn't a wisp/pest because it inherits Commando's horrendous fucking damage falloff.>SS2Omelee debuffer.Damage is pitiful unless you stack the debuff and the projectiles are all wrong for it to be close range. First instance where the debuff doesn't do direct damage.Poor proc chances.Technically a more accurate port as it forces melee, but this is partly because the projectile will literally stop existing if it approaches a slope greater than 30 degrees, forcing you to use the abysmal pistol M2 and lose the ability to proc bands at all- a major source of damage.Except scratch all that because they reverted the debuff to just be SS2U Gouge and will probably start flip-flopping again, making playing him a gamble each update. I hate this fucking mod.Oh, and mandatory>MoonstormUtils>SSRmelee debuffer.Damage is actually okay but as SSR is 'a port of Starstorm, not Starstorm 2' it pokes a giant hole in that proposition by being otherwise a clone of (bad) SS2ONemmando in overall gameplay loop.Somehow less fun to play than ReturnsArti but that's a personal gripe.This may have changed since the Returns Returns update but there have been 0 (zero) hosts of Returns since that, and i refuse to play Returns solo after grinding everything out.tl;dr 'SS2+ devs lost sight of what Nemmando was supposed to be and are also inconsistent trannies, nothing new here'
>>2108798Seems pretty understandable to me; it was just a matter of giving examples of how Nemmando's original vision was lost. I'll see for myself soon how much I'll end up agreeing with this when I have experience with his different iterations.
>>2108798>Somehow less fun to play than ReturnsArti but that's a personal gripe.well one of the people working on SSR unironically thinks Returns Arti is extremely well designed and very fun to play so lol, lmao

How do you guys feel about Returns?
>>2110162providence cleared and closed, ggs
>>2110365Give & take, a pity that post-release updates were cut short due to executive meddling.
>>2110365i like it more than 2 but i wish the difficulty scaling actually worked like the original game but overloading is so much worse in returns it makes glass near impossible for looping
>>2110383>executive meddling.What happened? Either way, thanks Hopoo for selling out to a corpo. Very cool!
>>2110390The devs lost access in updating the game on Steam directly after all the business chicanery happening at the time.
>>2110365after the novelty of a ror1 in a new engine wore off i just went back to starstorm because playing returns with /vm/ rules is an exercise in futility. overloading is retardedly anti-fun.
>>2110433Personally I'm not too sure I'm sold on the /vm/ rules. Maybe I need to experience it more, but it seems like it really restricts how you play, and exacerbates existing balance issues with SS and base RoR.
>>2110390Mere months after Returns released, Embracer sold off Gearbox to Take-Two, and Take-Two in less than a day laid off a bunch of employees and restructured the company.This meant the Returns devs lost all contact to anyone at Gearbox and were kept on radio silence seemingly until this year.
>>2110383They finally fixed that and got a significant update months ago>player limit can be increased to 32 instead of 4>emote system>ping system>QoL for some survivor abilities>2 items>hit detection for orange rockets, magma worm and wandering vagrant's projectiles are clientside instead of serverside so that players who are lagging a bit don't get owned by being hit where they used to be
>>2110486/vm/ rules are somehow even more tedious and repetitive than just playing vanilla, it's honestly impressive how shit they are.
if any starstorm 2 dev is reading this, please rework nemmando and make him fun like nemmercenary, thx
>>2111251After finally trying him, even in the unofficial version I'm disappointed. I preferred when he was just a variant of Commando, not an entirely different character. Just give me my sick melee character with Suppressive Fire.
So is Eclipse in 2 as unbalanced as it sounds? They make it sound like survivors who don't have inherently good movement just get raped.
>>2106025It's quite remarkable, really.
>>2111453Yes. Eclipse is garbage and unfun and uninteresting.
>>2111453It's the future of esports
>>2111986QRD?
>>2112098Eclipse is one of the only "challenge" modes in RoR2 (aside from Prismatic Trials) so some doofus is pretending having some people speedrun each other in Eclipse makes it an esport
>haven't thought about risky in like five yearsDoes the DLC add anything substantial to the gameplay loop? I loved the threads but the game got boring quick when playing solo
>>2112520For like, new dynamics? Generally speaking they add their own alternate map chains and interactives to get to new bosses. SotV adds void seed events for a chance at corrupting items and potentials (mini-Commands) and leads to what might as well be a run-ending final boss, SotS is quite literal about a new map chain to follow with a new jew shrine and its green portals leading to ripoff Paladin, and AC has you find a button on Stage 3/4 for yet another new portal - a bit of an outlier in that it doesn't have an alternative ending.SotV also has a survival mode of its own but you probably won't play it too often.
host when
is it just the same people playing together every time?because it is not fun trying to play with an established group
>>2112835kinda yeah but also who gives a shit, most you might get is people calling you new guy for the first game or two
>>2112835The worst thing that can happen is getting jewed but for the most part people are fine with sharing with itemlets, in ROR2 you can pick them up as drones if you die so it's easier to catch up if you fall behind.
>>2112520I'd argue SotV adds the most with the void seeds and corrupted items. AC is great, but doesn't add much to recurring runs aside from a map chain to two new bosses. Honestly ending your run at the AC final boss is infinitely more interesting and fun than Mithrix since the bosses have engaging attacks and mechanics to play around.

Commando is so fucking bad in 1 it hurts.
Was there anyone here still interested in the old femmod?
Do I have to do the dll edit for the dlc every time the game updates?
>>2114085Yes.
>>2114031That's not really true though. Commando gets to control half of the screen with his endless amounts of cc and iframes. If you collect zero damage items, sure he'll suck but it's true for any other character.
stahstom when
>>2113020>This is the only planned update to Alloyed CollectiveFirst and only AC update? why the fuck?fucking fix halcyonite >>2113707the unlocking is actually just a visual modloader bug, not starstorm
>>2114340Unless there's something I'm not understanding about his playstyle his CC only truly comes in the form of his second ability. His special at most holds back three enemies while others will continue marching or firing from range since he's stationary. He's so reliant on his second ability only for help with clearing that you waste a lot of time compared to other characters while the difficulty is still scaling.Also not to mention the level design can a lot of times be against him with small platforms of varying heights making it difficult to group and play at range like his kit wants.
>>2114373We're talking about RoR1, so every damage hit is effectively cc because most enemies get stunned for like half a second on a high enough hit. So every bullet is cc and you can spam that shit in droves. His stun grenade is AoE which is great but as you said, it's slow. You want dakka. The answer is always dakka. The more dakka you have, the more enemies you keep at bay. You want to keep 10 enemies away? Get 10+ bullets. 20 enemies? 20+ bullets. Syringe is god here. His ult is like 4 rapid fire shots so that's 4 hits of cc. You're never going to be able to stand your ground in RoR1 until you get some bullshit cheese like the Frost Relic sawblade or 10 stacks of barbed wire, so being able to run in one direction and constantly knock back enemies behind you is a ton of cc, and more than enough. If there's a ranking system for survivors, I would always put Commando on "average" or "better than average", never "bad".Once you get decent on-hit damage, cc becomes less relevant because you're just deleting everything. This also applies to other characters like Bandit and Chef who can spam their basic shot from range, so they are also all good for similar reasons. On the opposite end of the spectrum, characters who can't button mash a basic amount of mobs would definitely fall under "suck", like Enforcer. Enforcer's got no range, his shield sucks at blocking, and he can't shoot shit so that's why Enforcer is pretty much one of the worst survivors in RoR1 despite the fact that his design is super cool. Then there's like, I dunno, I think Engi who also falls under "sucks" because those balls suck (they still suck in RoR2 but the turrets are god tier in 2). I also don't like Huntress for this reason but a lot of people swear by Huntress so I'm not going to start an argument with them.
>>2113949Reducing the maximum charge threshold to the current 50% (+80% speed and +100% jump, with the explosion range still being 32m at the "reduced" max charge) and buffing the explosion damage to 600% base damage is my take.
>>2113867I'd rather they give it increased damage and bump it to legendary. There is a considerable lack of movement items in the legendary tier.

>>2113361Eviscerate scales really hard with attack speed which leads to a fuckton of procs, plus you just have more survivability due to the iframes. Especially if you can stack some Lysate Cells too, it's one of the strongest abilities in the game with practically no risk and stupidly high reward.

But really I think the bigger issue is enemy scaling when it comes to ROR1's balance.

What survivors become disproportionately weaker when playing with no allies of ANY kind? No drones, no Beetle Guard, no Squid Polyps, no Goobo, no other players, nothing like that.

Commando feels so fucking good to play in Returns compared to 1 it's not even funny. Especially when you're using Shotgun Blast.Also>That providence phase 3 fakeoutKino
Is Hive Cluster bugged or something? I swear on my life it spawns so little interactables compared to other stages. The worst I've seen was it spawning a single shrine. Feels like your run is giga-fucked if you roll it on your first loop without an already good set-up on Monsoon.
>>21314991 or Returns?
>>21316751
>>2131499I don't remember anything special about Hive Cluster so probably not unless something changed over the years. It spawns a decent number of chests and I never thought that it was worse than the other stages. The immensely flat terrain is also super nice for Teleporter events.

Man I really wish more mods tackled new monsters. I much prefer them over new items cause their effects on gameplay are way more varied on a run-to-run basis.good example would be sand crabs in enemiesreturns and how your capacity to deal with their bubbles is heavily dependent on which survivor you’re playing until you get a good build going.
>>2132665anon...>You don't seem to be aware the booru locked out all guest uploads and removed the ability for new registration for literal years>>and the boorus are fucking deadthis is what I meant by deadeven when they were not locked and at their peak, few people actually uploaded art to them
>>2132922For me, it's>early-game TP bosses (stage 1 only ever pitting ONE (1) WV, BQ or ST against the player is a little boring)>elite types that, in practice, change the enemy behavior (an easy way to multiply the effective number of enemies)>equipment>new void items>new enemy species>new items of other categoriesIn that order.

Hi. I've been wondering, should i just play on easiest difficulty and unlock every single loadout or is it better to play like i always do on monsoon and they will unlock eventually?
>>2151777Well the only difference is that it'll be easier on drizzle aside the few the need monsoon to unlock
>>2151777Do the annoying ones on Drizzle, play as you want for the ones that are realistically doable in a normal run.
>>2151777Some achievements can be gotten sooner into a run and/or more easily on Monsoon, including Bandit's 20 stacks of hemorrhaging and False Son's Aurelionite kill.You probably won't unlock them ALL eventually just by playing, as some require unnatural conditions or simply looping a bunch of times. Feel free to switch to Drizzle if you don't care for challenging yourself, but be aware that EVERYTHING can be gotten on Monsoon aside from the Prismatic Trial challenges and, in a handful cases, it's even the better choice.
>>2151799>False Son's Aurelionite kill.(the one for his alt utility, not the one to unlock False Son at all)
>>2151799>>2151779>>2151791thanks, its the opposite for me i find the lack of monsters (because of slow difficulty scaling) extremely boring and annoyingi just dont know what should i do at the beginning, i got 1 win 2 obelisk ends and failed void twicethe only good runs i have are when i play something immortal like seeker or mercenary i also dont want to play with artifacts
>>2151814>the only good runs i have are when i play something immortal like seeker or mercenaryYou might be taking the usual points of advice too literally.The best strategy is to be efficient in your item acquisition. Don't just bumrush the TP out of fear of the rising difficulty, but also don't spend 20 minutes on stage 1 just because you are looking for the stage's last chest. Try to keep the rough guideline "1 item/drone per minute = good" in mind, while adjusting for whatever is happening in a given run (for instance - 3 legendaries by the 20th minute? you're probably already very powerful and, consider switching to rushing the teleporter and only picking up whatever is on the way, because picking up more items at that point risks getting bad item RNG that fails to counteract the time you spent on getting said bad item RNG). Finding the right balance takes experience and game knowledge, so you will get that worked out eventually. You will eventually learn some basic thresholds to consider, such as the fact that, the moment the difficulty becomes Very Hard, two basic bosses may start spawning from the TP event instead of one.
>>2151696(You) me when getting going
>>2151841Im just throwing a lot because i loop instead of going to the boss because i want to do challenges like 12 crowbars on huntress for example
>>2151777monsoon is not very difficult these days, it was only really "hard" in early access. just play monsoon and get the hang of going faster. you'll need to play monsoon anyway and it's better to not develop bad habits from playing snoozefest drizzle runs.and when in doubt, loop more. the game gets exponentially easier after looping.

>>2153029i'm going to make you a derivative work of gay pornography, cousin.
i still don't know what teleports onto the ship at the end of ror1
>>2155257It's entirely possible they just used the teleport noise as an ending noise and didn't assign any meaning to it. While they do show the teleporter in the cargo bay right before, I think that was meant as a reveal of "this is why Providence was pissed off" rather than implying anyone was still using it to come aboard. Like it can just as easily be a stinger noise to close the game with.In Hopoo's own words they made shit up as they went along and I don't think it was meant to point to anything larger. I guess it could potentially point to the Void Reavers coming aboard and imprisoning Commando and Acrid, but given the way they retconned that immediately and said "oh it's a different random Commando they captured" I don't think that's likely or they thought that far ahead, either.
>>2155786>I guess it could potentially point to the Void Reavers coming aboard and imprisoning Commando and Acrid, but given the way they retconned that immediately and said "oh it's a different random Commando they captured" I don't think that's likely or they thought that far ahead, either. I should add an addendum and say "before they figured out what the Void Reavers are / how they teleport" (since they don't need teleporters and can just do it) but again, that's implying they thought that far ahead with a potential cliffhanger when they clearly didn't. I guess we'll never know since Hopoo fucked off forever and Gearbox doesn't care, so I choose to assume it was meant to be a stinger and nothing else.

>>2159570Is it really that bad?
>>2105684>Favorite Starstorm Original Character>Favorite Starstorm VariantGo. If you have a massive penis you'll explain why too.
I've never done RoR2 modding before. Let's say that I want to play modded with friends, but purely vanilla alone, at least for the time being. Do I risk fucking my save file over? Do I need to keep separate saves for modded and vanilla? Would the stats in the Logbook show inexistent items or characters if loading a modded save on vanilla?
>>2161346>Would the stats in the Logbook show inexistent items or characters if loading a modded save on vanilla?Yes, it does that. Names of modded characters show up in your playtime even after unloading the mods.If you care about it make sure to back up the files in your steam folder, they're basically spreadsheet files
>>2161429I assume it shows up more like, say, "Deaths as character_executioner_starstorm" and not "Deaths as Executioner"? Perhaps I will maintain separate save files.
Seekers of the Storm, yea or nay?I thought Void was overall decent, it had more good than bad (but fuck flying pests, what were they thinking). Railgunner is interesting but Void Fiend was half-baked. Voidling is a complete pisser of a final boss and I'm glad there's only a few things tied to fighting him. Regen elites are inoffensive, I like seeing them because they're easier to handle than other elites. Void elites draw aggro, which is always funny to watch.Alloyed is also mostly good, Operator and Drifter are both solid characters even if Drifter tends to have a shaky start. The new monsters and elite avoid being overbearing. New drones are welcome. Solus Wing and Solus Heart are both a big step up from Voidling but still not fun to fight with melee characters. Kinda wish we had more opportunities to access Chef and his item blending.
>>2161515Original Release SotS or Current State SotS?
>>2161515It's meh.Some okayish non-rng damage items like Breaching Fin and Chronic Expansion. Too many item economy items to be healthy for the game.Survivors suck. False Son is passable but kinda busted, Seeker is a design clusterfuck and not very fun to play but she's busted due to self-revive and having a 70 meter nuke in her kit, CHEF is a clusterfuck and kind of sucks.New enemies are terrible and actively make the game worse.False Son boss is terrible, with his only saving grace being that he's better than Voidling.
>>2161558Current version of course, I know the original launch of Seekers was a hot mess, that's why I haven't gotten it yet.
>>2161640Kinda mid, some things are less abysmal now. Everything has cheap-knockoff-of-mod feelings but the shrines are nice when you aren't getting hit for 500% damage every frame by the new golem it spawns.May as well get it for when a mod demands it for something.Or, y'know, edit your dll, that's totally fine with me too.
>>2161646Fuck I'm reminded of the Halcyon Shrine now. They absolutely fuck stage 1 pacing because they take forever to charge, but are insanely god due to the selectable items with a high chance of a red so you always end up doing them (or else they just become wasted director credits if you skip them).They're the worst, every post-SotS run involves a 7-8 minute stage 1 now due to them.
>>2161656consider baiting enemies to follow you to the shrine instead of grinding the infinity golems
>>2161515Only worth it for the items which are fun imo. The survivors aside from Seeker are just okay. Everything else should not exist.
>>2161515The False Son fight is the most fun final boss and the path to him is fun, too. The stages are mostly good. It adds the only stage 5 other than Sky Meadows, which is a big plus, but Shattered Abodes is a little questionable in that it has no "hidden" teleporter spots, i.e. standing in the middle and looking around will always let you see the TP or at least its sparks. There is also the fact that 3 stages (and 1 loop variant) require taking the Green Portal, limiting the variety a little.The only badly designed item is the Sale Star, all other items are at least decent, if not necessarily balanced. Some of them break Simulacrum in half.2 of the new survivors are kinda broken, but the 3rd one is well balanced. False Son's health gimmick makes him unique enough to let his brokenness slide. Seeker is just too good.The enemies are... passable. Halcyonite is fun to fight and satisfying to cheese, but the other two can be annoying, depending on the survivor. Overloading Scorch Worm is a nightmare. The elites are enjoyable to fight – adding armour to allies and one of the only "predictive" attacks in the game+having to retrieve your gold at risk of losing it are good gimmicks.The skins are good, but that I don't need to tell you – you can just look at them yourself and judge them based on your own taste.Artifact of Rebirth is boring and just a difficulty decrease. Chances are you will never use it.Obviously, SotS does not add new content to Simulacrum except for the new enemies and items.Conclusion: a positive addition to the game, but still the worst DLC. Only buy if you expect to venture the False Son's path at least a couple of times.>>2161656They don't use up credits on stage 1. You can skip them without losing out on items compared to non-SotS runs. On stage 1, charging them is indeed so tedious that I ignore them unless going for the False Son.

I have not played Starstorm in ages, has there been anything new? Is Starstorm Returns any good? Are the Starstorm 2 devs still fucking lazy and stupid?
Does Gearbox consider these DLCs successful? I know RoR2 has millions of sales but I can't help but notice that most of achievements for SotS and AC have sub 5% completion rates on steam, hell most of them are sub 3%
>>2163941>in agesHow long is 'an age'?>Is Starstorm (not original) any goodno>are the SS2 devs still-yes>>2163946Not Gearbox, but 2K
>>2163946In the recent AC notes they mentioned they still have plans for 2. So I'd imagine that yes, they're definitely successful enough.

>>2163946Judging by the file size and lower graphical fidelity of RoR2, there isn't as much effort involved in making RoR2 content compared to an AAA game. That plus RoR2 hitting a somewhat specific niche means that releasing a DLC for RoR2 every now and then is bound to generate some profit from groups that would not not purchase 2K's other stuff.

>>2188620>>2188795019bc861-d755-6364-abc3-cc2467f9b405Added yet another respawn mod more similar to the old one we used. If only the other one worked, or if most drones were worth using, gets kinda boring using the same 2 or 3, would be nice if they could use equipment too.

>>2189453Nah
>>2189447You can get away with a lot here but bare tits probably won't fly
those blind bastards are a pain when i play acrid or slashing merc
>>2190508That's why I never switch off Neurotoxin on Acrid, he NEEDS that ranged attack
>>2190921Even if he didn't, the Bite is straight up bad. It would need either like 3x the range, provide passive armour or much more health regen to be worth it.Kind of like MUL-T's buzzsaw, in fact.
