    Anyone knows how the Asshole quirk works? Do you still need to invest points on Hard ass to unlock extra dialogue options or you can just skip it cause the quirk will give all of those for free?

    The new camera angle is shit. In a game where there is so much ranged combat it is paramount to actually see far. Instead when zooming out the angle gets closer and closer to vertical line. So you still see shit, but this time from a bigger distance!

    :negative:



    As for quirks: there are some that seem great - I have 4 warrior monks now (because +1 attribute +5 skillpoints with a con of no-trinkets rules). There are some that are obviously shit (eg. Psychopath - it takes 3 consecutive attacks to have a bonus that is bigger than starting malus). I expect 3-4 that will be used by 99% ranger and the rest for those who want to "larp" in a combat rpg.

    As for perks: I don't feel swept of my feet, especially pistol perks are shit, turning pistols into even bigger shit choice that they were. Shotguns got interesting with their new cover removal skill. Wonder If they can remove concrete too :M

    So difficulty is definitely been amped up. Having a good time on supreme jerk. Also ammo is pretty scarce. I'm already outta bullets, and I'm only at ag center.. and i've bought XTRA bullets... fuck !

    Rememeber to take outdoorman.. I got like a random encounter every fucking second just moving on the map. That shit is cray.

    I don't get, what wrong with zoom levels? They are fine. doesn't seem changed to me. you can zoom in and out.

    What about the skill "perks".. nobody mentioned those?

    How do I use them? Whenever you level up your skills, at certain levels, you gain some extra functionality.. kind of like D:OS combat. But my UI is not showing them.

    Computer science shows "cyper scavenger" or whatever at lvl 3.. but where is it? what does it mean?

    The camera is mroe zoomed in than it was. Zooming out has a steep change of angle. TL;DR: you cant properly zoom out to see a larger portion of map, probably because consoles.

    From GoG...

    " Hi guys,

    We are aware of the issue which causes some Kickstarter backers to not get the Director's Cut version. We've found the the cause of the problem and we are working on a fix that should be ready today.

    If you are affected by this and you would like to play the game now, please contact our support department and we will add the game manually to your account.

    I'm very sorry for this mistake.

    EDIT:
    This problem only affects kickstarter backers who have the basic edition, not the classic or deluxe."

    Brother None responds to camera on Steam:

    "Hey everyone! We hear you! We're working on the camera now and will change it back to the original zoom as soon as we're able."

    Yay !

    So it seems I will be waiting a bit more until they fix this :D
    People also complained how VO is bad and it is only using one channel.

    Those are points at which your skill is fulfilling requirements for those perks, you still need to take the perk whwn levelling up.

    As for bizzare ass backwards changes: why cant I save my custom rangers ?

    Yeah, the zoomed out perspective is odd. I can't remember having this issue with the old version. But apparently they are already working on a fix.

    min max. The tilt is more abrupt in DC. Barely zooming the camera and you're viewing the top of you characters head.

    Looking good so far. Graphically its on another level. New voiceover is nice, although I second the comment that its weirdly mixed. Camera is messed up, but they're patching it "today" evidently, I can live with that. Overall looks solid.

    I'll wait for the Enhanced Edition of the Director's Cut. Hopefully they've managed to fix all the micro issues by then.

    If I had 1$ for each time one of you pussyfarting neckbeards has postponed WL2 playthrough because of the tiniest irrelevant bullshit, I could retire on tropical island right now.

    Nah, that is too early. You should wait for Enhanced Edition Wasteland 2 Director's Cut Game of the Year Edition. I am sure it will be ready to play then.
