Goldfish425 I agree on you with that, Client-Sided hitboxes are the worst thing you can encounter in a game like Kaiju Paradise, because it ends up just turning into 'Laggy guy from India destroys everyone using 2 grabs'
I've got something to add onto this. The new kaiju paradise is even worse in my opinion. They haven't buffed humans in the slightest, while instead, every single furry got an update in their favor. Plantix can poison on very hit, and God forbid you're wearing a hazmat suit. Whoop, I got hit, there goes half my health. Let's not even mention the Hazzy. It picks up a scythe and there: a major piece of shit whose practically unbeatable if he's in a group of two. Unless you're skilled of course. And their regen, oh my god. They could be just a sliver away from death, but if I don't attack them for 5 seconds, there's half of their health back. And it's boosted when they're grabbing you.
Yeah, yeah. It's a mini-boss I get it. But I've 1v1'd them before, it wasn't an issue. Except the hordes of cocksuckers protecting them, and acting like little health-packs for it to heal from. It's just so FUCKING ANNOYING.
The 'client lag' seems to happen, at ALL TIMES. It's always a dream to even barely graze their hitboxes, even when I shove my bat RIGHT UP THEIR ASSES. Yet, they can just stand there and grab me from like, 50 studs away.
Yeah, I get that 'oh, scythes spawn everywhere now, why complain about grab?' because of Hazzies. There's never a scythe around, because either some shitfaced retard will pick it up, only to die a second later, or its a FUCKING HAZZY, scooping it up to get an easy 100 kill streak.
Pretty much every weapon ain't that good compared to the base attack that the goo's have. They out damage everything in one hit, besides a direct blow with a sledgehammer, which you wouldn't even dream about hitting in a 1v1.
Every single time I fight someone, they run off to a crystal and just stay there spamming insults and doing the smug emote. "oh just pull out bricks or a knife". Yeah, I do. But when I hit it, it likes up like a fucking Christmas tree and blows up maybe 2 seconds later. And if they're not humping the fucking thing, it'll just gently nudge them back a bit.
Let's be honest here, if you aren't teaming, it's just completely useless in every way. You get slowed down when you attack, it highlights you after a while. It takes up two precious inventory spaces. It gets rid of your ability to enter the one only safe point Humans have. If you do end up hitting someone, they just take a single step back, and you only end up doing like, 8 damage. Just to get grabbed.
I know that it's experimental, but I doubt they're ever going to change anything. I like how they revamped the weapons, especially sledgehammer, but I just feel like they absolutely ruined it with the absurd buffs they gave to the goos. They can't grab anymore, that's great, but now they swing at mach ten. and they have the ability to kill you in about 2 seconds.
There's a massive pool around the center of the map full of sharks. They now actively chase you down, and the water slows you down drastically. Goos are completely ignored, and they can use it for an easy way to escape a fight. Especially since the hazmat suit does literally nothing to protect you.
The shork is completely unaffected by the water. They can run at full speed in it. Imagine, you're fighting a shork, and they run away, you try to chase after them with the katana, but it's shit stamina drain leaves you in the dust, just away from them. Then they enter the water, and absolutely gun it away from you. LIKE A FUCKING COWARD. GOD DAMN I HATE THEM ALL.
And the nightcrawler in that version is even worse, granted, it doesn't have 800 health anymore, instead replaced with a measly 200. But they are just horrible. They swing much faster than anything else, if you've seen a picture of their OUTRAGEOUS HITBOX for pummel, you'd be mad too, and let's not forget that they do an absurd amount of damage with each hit. They have thermal vision in the dark, and they REGEN. So if their close to death, they just run for a few seconds, back to full. Aaaaaand you're dead. The only way to counter them is the crucible, which doesn't even work most of the time.
Plus, with all the present buffs in the main game that are most likely to be reimplemented into TFE, I have a feeling that it'll just be a huge circlejerk of dog fuckers running around and instantly killing anybody who doesn't have scripts or a reaction time of a nano-second. And the crucible, the Human's greatest weapon, isn't even gonna be in TFE.
I usually try to stay semi-unbiased (of course keeping my own opinions in the play, but not trying to exactly be 'offensive' to others) but holy shit KP devs are just stabbing themselves in the vitals with every singular update that they add. Humans aren't the focus of updates anymore, instead goos just get redundant buffs that make them generally unfun to play against while also crushing any remains of the 'challenge' that was to actually fight people. God forbid they add some kind of passive speed buff to goos so it'll become absolutely impossible to fight back against them unless you're grouped up in a fucking regiment of half the human team. Hazzies are just something I'll not talk about because I already hated them pre-update (even though I dont play KP much anymore). I hope that TFE's combat systems aren't going to be as fucked up as the current game.
You might complain that humans are balanced, because they always have more people in the server, but that's simply because they bundle together... I mean, you've seen the giant 8 people hunting groups, right?
Now, I digress... WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING KP DEVS?! The up and coming gootraxians... they're gonna be a fucking pain. The ability to climb walls, the ability to disguise (which we'll go over later) and the ability to reel players in from afar...
The Kaiju got a laser, which makes you INVULNERABLE, and does OVERTIME DAMAGE, with INFINITE RANGE. The Pseudo shorks have an i-frame dash which allows you to cloak as players you've killed. The Hebi can see through walls, and is immune to scythes! (Nothing new there, just wanted to point it out)
The Humans were nerfed... AGAIN. They fucked the hitboxes over. If you swing a machete, you'll have to be RIGHT UP THEIR ASS or you don't hit them. And still, you only have like, 50 milliseconds to actually hit them.
If you're fighting a group of two and you get grabbed once? There goes your life. Stunned by a ghost fox? Dead. And let's say, you manage to kill the two other goos, and it's a 1v1. And let's say, that goo is NEARLY DEAD!
What do you want me to do kp devs... do you think this is balanced because we have more weapons? Yeah, because I'm sure having a bottle, a taser, the crowbar (which has no hitbox, zero damage, and no stun), the axe (Which is almost never available, and is made out of cardboard) the nunchucks (which never land) and a knife (which is a worse nun chucks, which you can throw at 1 km per day) will make a fucking difference?
I don't care, give us better weapons, maybe something akin to the Nightcrawler, like a suit of Power Armour (because I'm sure as hell the chainsaw doesn't count). Maybe fix the hitboxes, or give downsides to the buffs you gave to the goos. Here's some ideas!
Bravo. Came back from my Hotline Miami grind just now. Honestly I agree with nearly all the points brought up here (who am I kidding, I agree with the whole thing). Power in numbers is really the only way that humans can survive at this point, and yet still goo mains manage to get pissed off for humans using such a strat. And on the Kaiju laser, haven't seen it in action yet since I've last played like a year ago (when things were ever so slightly less fucked up), but I'm thinking of giving it a go just to see how bad it is.
Completely agree with this rant, I got banned permanently for 'toxicity' I wrote an appeal and even added evidence to unban me and ban the people who reported me constantly, they all targetted me the whole game then bodydanced then told me to 'take a shower' the mods Completely ignored me and even had dared to accept an appeal about wearing n@z1 avatar instead of mine. Despite them trying to update and fix everything it still won't fix the horrible community and management team they have, I've recently joined their voice call just for formation and one even said they weren't even qualified for moderating. The game is going to die out soon and I literally can't wait for its downfall, there's other goo games I can play but it's either unfinished or canceled. All of your comments are really inspiring and makes me want to state out out opinions too! Thank you all for sharing your experiences.
