I've got 2016 downloading now. Will probably do a fresh playthrough

Excellent. It will probably seem easy by comparison and you won't be running out of ammo constantly.

What's the benefit and is it achievable on console?

What's the benefit and is it achievable on console?

Yeah for sure. I'm still trying to learn the different combos and timings but it makes a huge difference, especially against Marauders. And it's fun too. Watch this.

 

[KidBaize]

The benefit is higher DPS because you skip the loading animation.

Thought I was getting better but the slayer gate at cultist base kicked my ass for almost two hours today. Struggled with the last arena fight too so I need practice. It's like my brain short circuits if they throw enough enemies at me.

 

[KidBaize]

And I can never do the timed secret encounters without dying a bunch of times. I'm just too slow with all the inputs and I screw up the quick switch timing under pressure. Frustrating.

What did you up the difficulty to?

Just UV for this playthrough. I've been messing around with the meathook more and it helps so I think that's what I'm missing. I've only been using the SSG for quick swapping and not movement but the meathook gives you so many more options and range. I'm starting to get it but haven't really been playing properly so far.

UV is a great setting to hone up. And yeah, Meat Hook is a great additional movement tool. There’s some crazy acceleration you can get with it to launch you across arenas.

Not really feeling 2016 after Eternal. It's a vast improvement in every way

100 pct agree.

Some of the locales are cool,but the combat is vastly less intense

I'm good with the meathook until all hell breaks loose and then my old habits take over. Of course the most useful time to use it is when I totally forget about it!

You guys are so spoiled. Two of the best games ever made and you're complaining like your steak is too big!

2016 feels like playing Pong after playing Eternal. Maybe I'll just play through eternal instead lol

I'm a pessimist. I can find something wrong with anything. It's a gift. But also a curse.

Reminds me of Souls games and panic rolling lol.
