Combat Revision 2.0 FAQ (Working Document: Updated 1/10@12 Noon PST)

Hm, about Styles... I've already /bug'ed this, but I'm getting the impression that it could be some weird feature:

I'm using Self Defense in Interlock or Melee Free Fire. Now when I select a gun from the drop down menu or quip it in my inventory, I am using guns in Interlock and Free Fire. To use Melee attacks again, I have to unequip the weapon in the inventory, just selecting Self Defense in the drop down menus from the hotbar won't work.
My question is: Is it supposed to work? In my opinion, it should, because it's really a pain to unequip from the inventory, when I'm in a hot fight.

Its cool that the devs answer us some questions, but the first, and for me an importand question, wasnt answered, Whats up with the spy tree?
In every dev yournal we can read something about Karate, KungFu, Sniper, Hacker..... but no word about the spy. Why?
I have the fear that this tree will get deletet :smileysurprised:
I dont hope so....

I was wondering about the logic behind the free fire timer for all 3 gunman tree's which are;

Sub Machineguns = 2 secs

Pistols = 3 secs

Rifle's = 8 secs

Now i understand why rifle's take so long but shouldn't it be the other way round for pistols and smg's considering pistols are the lowest dmg tree.

Perhaps when the enhanced weapons (collectable and code able ones) are released it might make some more sense, but for now i'm baffled.

yeah, lol... I had written an thread about this.... but no one had answered to this, so I had thought that no one had get any thoughts about this.

The spy tree is not being deleted :smileywink: though some might wish it to be.

But on a serious note it is just the last tree to get revamped for CR 2.0, but because we chose to open the server before all the changes were done some area you will have to wait to be completed.

By default players should enter the world with your Speed tactic enabled.

Does this mean that if you were dragged into IL that you would automatically attack with a speed attack?

If so I would recommend changing the default to block, so that people don't stand around idle and let the npc's attack them...

Well the concern you are point out is that folks could just stand around and effectively farm a spawn AFK. Remeber you get hit alot more now and just using the tactics while may get you a few kills the combat system is not zero sum anymore.

Players that sit in the middle of hostile spawns will get dead if they are AFK.

I know on the test server you can buy RSI stat hacks off of item vendors. Will these remain in the game when it goes live? Considering how much stats figure into the new combat I am sure a lot of people will want to change their stats often to make the best builds.

Sounds like some good stuff.

/agree

**DillingerFour**

so can someone clarify for me, what exactly will happen to our abilities when cr2.0 goes live?
