Aaaaand I apparently found another bug in Warmachine Tactics;
Just finished Mission 7 which gave Jakes "Acrobatics" ability
that allows her to ignore interviening models and ignore free-strikes.
.........whiiiiich is odd since she has been able to do that since the 1st mission. <.<"

......I´m confused.... @.@

This does pretty much confirm what others have been hinting at: an unfinished game that still has a long, long way to go before it is stable and playable.

The craptastic sale continues, though I did pick up Transistor, which is confusing me to no end with its clever story, beats me hard with its weird combat mechanics, but in the end has drawn me in wholly.

Indeed, it lags alot of polishing and fine tuning with it´s game play mechanics
or atleast specifying how and why certain things don´t work.
So far Stormcallers seem like the worst units to have in the game
while stormblades can occasionally seem rather OP with their assault order and thunder thrust ability while gunmage is more like "meh". :/
Haven´t touched Multiplayer yet, but the look of things,
I expect same problems in there aswell. sweatdrop

I see that it's no longer an early access game, which would mean that by now, it has moved beyond buggy beta stage and become a more stable product.

Another thing I don't like is asking €1,99 per extra unit, meaning you need to shelf out quite a bit of cash to get units missing from the game right now.

Indeed, I was kinda expecting this kind of business idea.
In a bundle maybe, but just single one? I´ll pass. talk2hand

So far the mercs are sold in bundles with some savings, but it still reeks of a cash grab to me.

More DLC coming up: http://youtu.be/WJgGWwFvKyg

January 22.

New contact: The Butcher

New heist: The Bomb

New crew member: Dragan  

[Hoxtalicious]

Day 1 is now up: http://www.overkillsoftware.com/games/thebomb/

In short, two new heists, which will cost $6,99 and a new character, Dragan, who will cost $4,99.

More news, probably on Dragan and what he brings to the game, tomorrow.  

[Hoxtalicious]

Enter Dragan.

Quote:

“No pain, no gain”, a proverb most fitting to describe Dragan, the Croatian “entrepeneur” who the Butcher sent to keep the PAYDAY gang in check, as part of a deal with Bain to secure the lucrative Bomb heists.



Dragan
Life had been good to this corrupt Interpol agent. Everyone was on the take. He got to crack skulls, the money rolled in, and he lived like a king. On both sides of the law, he used his contacts to further his own agenda while playing them against eachother. But that all ended when he betrayed his partner to the Butcher.
His reward for this ultimate act of backstabbing? To act as her confidant on a mission to the U.S. He would be given a fresh identity, a place with the infamous PAYDAY gang as part of a deal with Bain.
A new life in America, the land of golden criminal opportunities. Perhaps there, things would be different.

The Infiltrator is an agent hired by a government or large criminal organization to obtain information about its enemies, or by a corporation to obtain industrial secrets from its competitors.

Kinda reminds me of Dishonored for some reason.... <.<
Maybe it´s the art-style.....

And yes, it IS easier then the original Thief: The Dark Project.
