Angel of marksmanship gets pretty ridiculous with a storm bolter, especially when you have sharpshooter. 6 12 damage shots at anything that isn't a revenant, arachnotron or such goes down quite easy. Until you run out of ammo...

 Similar problem to people going for Bullet Dance. There isn't any real way of maintaining that firerate in a weapon with such small clips. Dual blasters would be a blast though.

When is v1.0 coming? I want Derek Yu tiles!!!

It's been a long time there have been no mention of it, i hope we'll see it this year.

The biggest change i noticed in 0.9.9.4 is the monster AI, previously the monster AI was attracted to the center of the map, they were all progressively going from where they spawned to the center.
This made some maps easy, as you could try on them to simply avoid the center to avoid getting in fights.

Not anymore, monsters are no more attracted to the map center. i have been rather surprised in my few first games to find them in location they weren't anymore after several turns passed in previous version.

I can't even imagine trying the pacifist challenge now (especially if you're not using the scout class), it was really very hard before, but now if you can't get around the monsters like previously by running on the edge of the map, it will be horrible

However, the ETA for the tiles version is like 4 months, so don't be surprised .

Scout class can't see the stairs on some challenge modes. Like Pacifism. At least they have easy intuition.

[Robsoie]

Ouch, at least i hope intuition is easier to get for them.

Well, scouts move faster and can intuition 2 by level 2, then get hellrunner pretty fast as well, then get Dodgemaster. So it would seem that scouts are the best choice for Pacifist runs still.

 Only Engineer lacks anything that really helps with some of the trickier modes. He is also quite difficult to keep alive in the early game if you are going for Scavenger. I'm still trying to make that build work. There is a lot of potential there, but you just have nothing to work with if you go straight for it. Eagle Eye doesn't seem to up the damage rate of chainguns enough to keep up with shotguns, so you effectively get nothing until you either run into a ton of mods you can use because of early Whizkid or finally get that master trait.

 Melee characters are a bit more odd now too. Soldier gets the usual power play build that fucks shit up, Scout gets the quick build that deals a bit better at melee range but doesn't hold up as solidly and Engineer gets a really weird thing I'm not entirely sure about yet. And apparently resistances were changed so I don't know if Berserk gives such an absurdly high defense to pretty much everything anymore.

[Robsoie]

I gave a try to pacifist challenge, and indeed intuition 2 as early as possible is a must have now, with the new AI not being attracted to the map center, it is hell, i can't imagine going without intuition 2 unless you have a gigantic amount of luck.

I'm dying to play this on my Windows 7, but the floor tile shows up as some wierd chinese letters :/
I searched some videos in youtube and found out those chinese shits are supposed to be middle dots.
anybody know how to fix that up?

[Angel Of Death]

I really don't like the addition of the classes. It just feels so different... It's strange to get what I concider the best trait in the game at the start when playing as a marine. And the colour change of barons and demons just fucks with my head.

Try using the .bat file. I think that is supposed to load the right letters.
