Another Evil Dead game (Left 4 Dead inspired)

However it is showing similar issues balance wise to DBD in that a 4 man survivor sweat group in comms will 99% of the time buttfuck a killer/demon player.
There is no realistic way to prevent this, just a shit sandwich you have no choice but to eat. Every adversarial asym game is going to have this issue.
So what do we prefer playing, Demon or Hero, I’m personally more of a Hero guy myself, loving using ED1 Ash to prox Melee heals and deal bonus damage to marked enemies lol
The few times I've been able to play I've been using ED2 and AoD Ash and having fun. They're pretty much polar opposite playstyles. I am really having idiotic fun with the chainsaw attack and kill animations. Once I tire of those two I might consider maining Henry the Red. I really hope we get more characters as DLC, I noticed a distinct lack of Ruby.
 
Broke my "NO EPIC STORE" rule for this game and I'm glad I did. Solo queue is a trash fire (my brothers in Christ, MARK THE GODDAMN CHESTS), but even with one friend, it's fun as hell.

Told myself I'm gonna main Old Ash, but ED1 Ash with his adorably dumb face, hair, and special ability animation stole my heart. Since he heals people around him by performing heavy attacks, just give him the shittiest hunting knife and wail on enemies, he keeps the team topped on health while dealing decent damage (even better with Arthur around). He still heals even if you keep hitting an enemy who is currently being murdered by a finisher. Pop the special ability to prevent teammates from being possessed during battle. Eligos sort of counters him with the exploding minions, but still workable.

Also, queues are still immediate on the survivor side. Hurts going back to DbD to queue for 10mins after this.

If you aim your gun (M2/LT/L2), you can cancel any melee animation. Use it to cancel your ending lag on light/heavy attacks to chain attacks faster.

I really hope we get more characters
Apparently Ruby and Baal are already in the files with models and on-top of that Baal already has a listed voice credit in game along with their meat puppets (S2 episode in the police station)

I've been playing since launch a mix of solo and with friends and I still very much am loving it.
I really want Chet and Brock (you can call him Cock) added as heroes. Maybe they can add some characters from the reboot too.

Brock would be Kino, so would Chet.

Reboot characters would be uh, fine but I don’t know if they have the license for the remake

We need Chet, Ruby, and the Blacksmith from AoD.

I personally want Brock "Cock" Williams as a playable character.
 
Is it really worth getting the Epic Gay Store for this? Fucking love Evil Dead, but fucking hate EGS.
 
This really cool streamer I found about a year ago, which he was playing RE: Resistance at the time and moved on to other Asymm games since, got a big jump in viewership numbers after making this his main game. I'm happy for him and I don't mind this game but watching someone play killer in this game just isn't satisfying compared to others. It's hard to describe but I'd rather watch a DbD killer, who isn't getting floored by a SWF, than this superior game.
 
I bought the game in may but didn't have many chances to play it until recently, I enjoy demon a lot but I feel like I'm doing something wrong since all of my games get to the "destroy the necronomicon" phase. As a demon should I be setting traps and gathering energy to level or try to find the survivors asap?

I'm still relatively new but setting traps to grind out early threat levels seems to be the way to go. I also spam out around 3 invisible basic/elite portals once I unlock them around the page and knife while I wait for them to make noise. Not sure if invisible portals disappear over time but so far that has been my most consistent strategy in the early game, then harassing them with possessed units when they inevitably show up.
EDIT: Also, looking for survivors seems to be the most inefficient way to play, setting up scare traps on roads and buildings will reveal the survivor's location when triggered, and then you can harass them from there.

While I've really been enjoying the game, goddamn it needs more maps. And they need to seriously do something about how easy it is to get caught on objects and stuck entirely. There's no reason you shouldn't be able to vault over knee high bullshit.

Another thing I hope they fix is the kicking everyone back to the menu when someone quits because they had a tantrum over not getting the character they wanted. I've had a guy do this six times in a row and each time it was the same four of us in the lobby and him quitting because he wasn't fast enough for AoD Ash.

That and I wish it had a text chat. Still having fun with it but it's far from perfect.

“Enjoying survivor? Then refill your popcorn you’ll love this next patch..”

Why the fuck did Saber buff possession meta whilst also nerfing counters to it?
E.G last shot, ED2 Ash, Deadly upclose
