(paging u/GSG_Jacob)
I dunno about you guys, but I love this type of game the most when I'm just freaking out. Too many goons, not enough ammo, fighting the clock and wigging out when WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING pops up unexpectedly.
So, if the GSG boys are in the mood to share - what's the craziest story y'all have from playtesting? Last-minute escapes, new features gone horribly wrong? Dish out the goods!
External link →/u/GSG_Jacob and I had just fought off 4 Bulk Detonators in the Magma Biome during an intense Deep Dive. The entire cave room was one big burning crater and our only safe haven during a swarm was the platforms our Engineer had built. In a desperate attempt to melee enemies due to lack of ammo, /u/GSG_Jacob managed to destroy the only platform that separated our team and certain death by lava. Fun times!
Well, the issue was that thing we can’t talk about yet, which made it a lot harder.
I accidentally spawned 50 infected Bet-Cs while playing around with Ansel’s photo mode in a debut build. https://twitter.com/joindeeprock/status/1145601182733410304?s=21
Oooh - I was absolutely blown away in more than one sense the first time I played against the bulk detonator. That crater was ridiculous.
The bug that made aquargs zoom around at high speeds if hit by an impact axe was absolutely ridiculous. https://twitter.com/joindeeprock/status/1132425890212798464?s=21
Sounds like Jacob alright :D
Heeey! ಠ_ಠ
That thing we can't talk about yet:
Ammo is now only purchasable with real money (the devolopers just couldn't afford a 2nd supply drop)
“Please buy our game, so we can buy ingame ammo”
Wasn't there some hilarity back in the day about how the early playtesters were only given 20 flares for the whole session?
Hey, those things cost money.
That was probably a result of “seemed like a good idea at the time”.
Hmmmmm gravity?
My nemesis.
I'm sad that isn't still a thing tbh
I saved the build with that particular bug in it. :D
