is killing floor 2 good?

my asshole is censored in germany

yes
early access was a mess but it’s improved since then

there's no reference to a certain political movement from 1921-1945 so it gets a pass

How do you get the blood like that?

Yeah, is good, still kinda lacking in content, weapons and official maps more notably but it feels less repetitive than kf1 even if you have less things to do technically.

And custom maps fix half of the problem.

Germany has stringent laws on censorship right?

Pretty sure it's the nvidia flex/fluids effect.

Weirdly enough they're big on mass extermination over there.

Zeds/specimens are all clones. I'm not sure on the specifics of Germany's censorship but so long as it was never technically human and just a clone of one, no harm no foul right?

ohhhh, so that's what it does, cool shit.

too bad I don't have nvidia

No, just anything that could be construed as related to nazis is banned

It's neat I guess but it fucks with how bloats work/gib so I turned it off. Too often I ended up getting backsplashed by a bloat gib that would normally just be one of those weird green chunk piles.

what the fuck, how do they get away with it. if things like that are allowed to be played by the german people we will have another holocaust on our hands in no time, where is merkle when you need her???

That must play a big role in the dissemination of your history right?

In America, we have to censor a lot of things pertaining to the post-war tragedies dealing with soldiers and PTSD, so all of our WWII games are gimped.

>This is somehow uncensored in germany
Why are those muslim refugees?

pic related is found in at least two maps that I can think of.

it's not so much deliberate censorship as a cultural blindspot/meme regarding "The Greatest Generation," their kids turned into the hippies for a reason

Swastikas and the likes are all good if it's portrayed in an artistic or educated fashion. Weirdly in Germany games aren't seen as "artistic", but movies are.
It's weird honestly, and a giant ballache. I feel like this law doesn't do anything except have to make people do the effort of censoring things nobody gives a fuck about.

I'm not german bud I'm American. Also the fuck are you talking about. I haven't seen any gimped WWII stuff here, especially not games.

Plus there's that

Black Sun is more pagan than Nazi, they were notorious for taking ancient symbolism and making their own facsimile.

you arent shooting humans. i think killing humans is a big deal for them.

>In America, we have to censor a lot of things pertaining to the post-war tragedies dealing with soldiers and PTSD
No

Oh here.

Watch this movie: youtube.com/watch?v=fJ1O1vb9AUU

A lot of stuff about post-war sociology and problems soldiers faced at the end of World War II is really hushed. None of it is officially banned, but finding the material and using it for any purposes is almost as difficult as getting me laid.

Concerning violence?
Not anymore.
The censorship laws have become more and more lax over the last decade or so.
Don't even know when the last game got banned for violence. You'd have to be on the level of Manhunt nowadays to get into trouble.

The german rating board has become very liberal since post 2012, pretty much everything from Fallout 4, Rising Storm 2, Witcher 3, Dead Rising to DOOM is uncensored 18+.

Recent exceptions are Dying Light because of Zombie children and Hatred for obvious reasons.

Regarding swastikas, there is literally nothing our rating board can do. They consider videogames art but because of a court case in 2006 where some neonazi sold Wolfenstein 3D swastikas have been banned in videogames. The only way to change this is if a publisher had the balls to release a game uncensored with swastikas left in and risk going to court which nobody is going to do.

>create biggest war in history
>don't own up to it and hush hush swipe everything Nazi under a rug, no one will notice

Lmao, the state of this "country". Should have just annexed it back then, Germans bring nothing of value to the world

all dead rising games except for the fourth one are banned in germany.
something to do with all zombies there once having been human and it being a huge slaughterhouse.

why isn't the pickelhaube a hate symbol?

Compared to KF1 sure.
In KF1 you couldn't see if Zeds were set on fire and rather than proper decapitation their necks just kind of twisted and their heads vanished or something.
Censorship seems to be a bit more lenient now but it's still fucking retarded.

Media distorted sensationalism probably.

>hurrehwehewwwwuuuuuu swastikas are not allowed in public equals sweeping under the rug

We spend a whole year in school on the two world wars and how hitler came to power you dumb nigger.

>Should have just annexed it
Technically, you have.

So how exactly do you incorporate post-war tragedies like PTSD and shooting your family because you got triggered by a firework going off down the road? I'm really interested in hearing your nig-nog responses.

>here! watch this hour long movie to understand what i'm talking about!!!
give a brief fucking synopsis of what it shows them dealing with and what the difference is or fuck off

The fourth one being released uncensored shows how much they have changed.
Even the newest Mortal Kombat is uncut.

Incorrect. Max Payne is still banned, nothing to do with nazis.

Or you could just, watch the developer commentary and not be helpless like a robot.

If the publisher submitted it again nowadays it would be unbanned.
Pretty sure that 90% of the banned games would be unbanned if anyone gave enough of a shit to have them reexamined.

There's a lot stuff that's worse that's uncensored in germany
Even their nazi-censorship gets slowly lifted, for example some movies and tv shows can use swastikas and Hitler now
But it's still extreme in video games, in Wolfenstein entire levels and dialogues are cut, nazis jews and Hitler get new synonyms and Hitler loses his mustache

>skips the question just to bicker
kill yourself, nigger.

>pronounces a question asked
>surveying, the question still confounded by existence

>Max Payne is still banned
There are two things wrong about this statement.

1. Max Payne was never banned in Germany. There's a system in place that prohibits advertisements for the game, including simply having it sit on a shelf in the store, but buying the game is still possible if the store has it stocked and you are over the age of 18.

2. This "kinda ban" was lifted in 2012.

I wouldn't even mind a Hitler without mustache, but I won't buy Wolfenstein games since even gameplay and story elements are cut and I would an inferior version

>some movies and tv shows can use swastikas and Hitler now
>now
Movies and TV shows always got a free pass when it came to swastikas. Just think about Indiana Jones.

In comparison with 1, there are a lot of things I don't like about it. One, the power rankings especially on the higher difficulties for zeds are almost reversed. For example sirens are nerfed to the point that it makes me wonder why they're even there anymore, however crawlers somehow became a huge pain in the ass and you'll swear to god you should've made a shot on them on more than one occasion. Two, Hans, the new boss, is an enormous pain in the ass to deal with if you're playing on a 6 man server and you're the last one standing, and if you're not playing a class with speedboosts you might as well just present yourself to him and save everyone 30 minutes of watching you kite him. Fleshpounds (and the diminutive quarter pounds) also have a random chance to spawn raged on higher difficulties and FP's rage timers work differently than they did in 1. In 1, rage timer starts over once a FP breaks line of sight with a player for a few seconds, in 2, their rage timers constantly count down as soon as a player is spotted or if they enter while raged.
On the pro side of things, the zeds themselves move in a lot less of a rigid manner which couples with making it slightly more difficult overall, medic guns now have a lock on and homing dart, cross-class weapons, berserker has been reworked to a point where I could see it as a pro or a con, zed variety on higher difficulties.

Unlike movies, games aren't considered art to the German government (yet), so vidya still has trouble getting any kind of nazi imagery through, no matter the context. With the way games are nowadays, I could imagine that if a publisher contested these stupid laws, they'd win easily.

However, the exact opposite was happening with The New Colossus. Bethesda has the funds and lawyers to fight the case, but instead they bent over for the sake of quick profit. Not having swastikas is one thing, but shaving Hitler's mustache was entirely their idea in an attempt to adhere to those laws and not cause any legal trouble. It's overkill and an indicator Bethesda doesn't understand those laws.

I remember the public outrage here when in The New Order they forgot to remove one swastika on some random box
Then most people were like
>ban video games you kill jews there!!!!
They don't even know that you're fighting against nazis in this game

Germanfag here, I don't remember anything like that at all.

Has KF2 added any new characters since release or has it all been costumes?
I'm not a fan of the new skins being costumes. I want me some new lines and voices.

I can't find an article, maybe I talk bullshit there
But the public definetly has a mixed opinion on video games in general

>tfw I can run kf2 on the highest settings with my 1070, but turning on the fancy gibs and fluids drops me to sub 30 and makes it crashy

hans is easy

zerk is still easy as fuck even despite being "nerfed"

kinda agree with your first point, though. sirens used to be much more of a threat by themselves, now they're more of a glass cannon which are only an issue when grouped with other zeds, and gas crawlers are simply annoying as shit. i wish husk they fixed husk kamikazee instead of just reducing its occurrence

The hell are you doing wrong? My GTX 1060 6GB has no problems keeping rock solid 60fps, all High settings (Ultra textures), with full Flex effects on, while playing at 1920x1200

imagine they had tits or swastikas on them

even the devs recommend turning FLEX off, they basically abandoned trying to make it optimized

>mfw Australian
>games can be banned for any number of retarded reasons
go google "australia banned games" and actually look at the retarded reasons why they banned them. its usually some 50+ year old women committee who are "protecting the children" crap. Also in Australia, if games got a R rating (18+) they were automatically banned as video games didn't have a R rating. After years of consumer backlash and lobbying, we got a video game R rating. It did nothing. Basically games that were rated 15+ (MA) because rating them R would ban them are now rated R via the new rating, and anything they want banned is just given X rating which is rating they give porn. Australia is a literal nanny state of whiners and old feminists at the highest levels of control.

Dying Light is banned in Germany

maybe you've done something extremely retarded like not installing physx drivers. I believe physx will fallback to cpu if no gpu drivers are present

I went to go take a screenshot of my framerate with it on but I couldn't because it crashed after shooting a couple zeds in the head

I love the fact that in the new Wolfenstein games it turns out the nazis were right about the jews. No one ever brings that up though.

not if you played the first one

>tfw the first sex scene we got was the one in Far Cry Blood Dragon
feels gooood to be aussie

uh oh, here comes a nostalgiafag

heck even googling the word "nanny state" you get a bunch of australian articles. Coincidence?

I thought Austrailia was supposed to be a tough-as-nails country where manly men fought nature itself, how did that happen?

we soldout to the chinamen

I know I see physx listed as installed/updated every time I update my drivers

>ban a bmx game because of "high impact sexual references"
>unban a horrifying vietnam war game because "hey! at least it happened, we can't stop em from doing it now, can we?"

I don't remember this game having so much blood on headshots?

>half life 1 had robots and green blood in 1997, so everything must be like that

spoken like a true foreigner

Germany hasn't really been censoring gore since the first Dead Space.
however some games dont come out over here still, like dead rising 1-3 and Dead Island or Dying light.

its hard to say wether or not the devs even tried to get approval from the german raiting board.

I'm surprised they didn't censor my boy Anton..

And funnily enough, Killing Floor 2 is completely uncensored in Aus.

Sirens were super fucking powerful around some patches, especially when an elite alpha boosted them. Basically an instant wipe back then.
TW didn't seem to understand that the problem was them spawning in groups of three or four, and that elite alpha damage boost. Not their normal damage.
Same with Bloats. Who the fuck thought spawning eight of them in a hallway, half of them blocking, would ever be a good idea.

This. From what I recall many of their game releases were censored by changing enemies into zombies or robots.

>Sirens were super fucking powerful around some patches
So I had heard, I started playing right around when it was officially released though so I missed out on some of the really bad decisions. If I remember right sirens don't do anymore damage on HoE when compared with normal due to a "bug."
Hans is easy yeah, provided you have ready access to multiple levels such as through stairs. I'm talking on a full server though, last man standing. Just because something's easy doesn't mean it can't be tedious. I also didn't say berserker was nerfed, just reworked. I think gas (alpha) crawlers throwing the other zeds into a panic is part of the challenge but I still just hate crawlers.

Are blood fluid physics the future?

Something about it in KF2 stands out, and not in a good way.

I feel like they went for goofy overkill in the Gibs department for KF2, KF1 had it fine.

>There will never be a Viscera Cleanup Detail cross promotion using their upgraded UT3 engine.

It's a splatterhouse game. Going overboard is part of the fun.

You can't host a server like in KF1 in game. Something to do with how UE3 handles things networking differently in comparison with 2.5.

I was specifically referring to how the blood spatters stand out. I don't have a problem with how enemies gib and I love that, just the flex blood or whatever. I guess if I were to try and put it into words, the spatters look like they aren't displaying right/most of the time it looks way to dark to actually be blood.

>blood falls straight to the ground and doesn't move ever

How are the new guns?

>he wants his game to lag like ass
Okay if you want your GTX 1080ti tech demo i'm not going to stop you

old games did it well enough, what's the issue here

Eh, when indie devs try to do something like that they usually fuck everything up. Could you provide an example to what you mean tho?

The blood spreads a little but yeah, that's about it. Smears as things walk through it would be great but probably laggy.

>having a government that censors your video games

>Says the guy whose internet freedom is about to be monetized.

why should it be censored? haven't seen any swastika in the clip

hello, reddit!

Counter Strike was also heavily censored in Europe of violence

>Falling for the NN meme

Good goy.

good redditor

>shitflinging without any actual discussion about NN
You won't convince anyone about anything like that

Pro-NN people baffle me, to be honest. Why yes, a former Verizon employee is fighting to abolish the laws that stop said company and those like from doing whatever they like. Ignoring any negative feedback, suspected of faking the positive and relevant companies and those under them keeping quiet about the whole thing.

Why of course they're doing all this and spending possibly millions of dollars, just so things remain the same. Totally trustworthy. Pic related will be your ISP next month.
