Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Any time I try to actually fight them on the ground for the tutorial missions, they shred me since I have no way to heal, and they can hit me out of midair. The threshers in the thumper core mission will just move below me while I am jetting pretty high above them, and do their tail spin and still hit me for a huge chunk.
They've recently done some major upgrades to that hardware and now the AI is snappy and they're still tuned to shoot flies out of the air. I presume there will be adjustments coming down the pike.
Anyone run into a similar issue and know how to fix it?
Alt fire on the heal beam heals you when you heal others.
Healing wave (1 by default) heals you too.

I believe you get ore if you finish the game, and more for winning. But I could be wrong.
It wouldn't take too long to test it out I guess.

I'd love it if it's still available.

Signing up for the forums IS how you sign up for the beta.
Your chances of getting in have gone up drastically as of this latest patch. Everyone that was in the beta was given 2 invites. Im sure there are ppl on these forums that are in the beta and would be willing to give some out. (I already gave mine away though... sorry).
If you do the intro quests, they will (kind of) lead you through some beginning crafting. It was a little rough, but it was enough to help me figure things out.
The most important thing to know is to get on high ground. Most mobs have difficulty getting to you and you can rain death down on them.
But Firefall? Game starts, here are some guns. Go kill some things. Oh, and here's a jetpack. Now check out this cool future resort. Want to fight some monsters? Then go shoot some monsters; straight-up shooter combat here, no turn-based or stat-driven stuff where solid hits are actually clean misses. Want to fight a whole bunch of monsters? Yeah, there's an app for that. And it comes from space. Want to switch classes? Then go switch classes; no need to keep separate characters. Custome loadouts? Got that too.
Granted, there are some serious gaps as yet. I was gonna say the enemy selection is limited, but pretty much everything is limited at this point. But hey, it's a beta and a pretty early one at that. What's more important is that I can already see what kinds of great stuff could fill the current gaps. The loot possibilities alone could end up nothing short of staggering. Heck, I even dig the resort setting so much that I actually want the activities advertised on the billboards to be real, actual things. Learn how to make seashell necklaces next Tuesday? Where do I sign up? The idea of a bunch of futuristic killing machine sitting shoulder-to-shoulder in a resort hut and carefully stringing together colorful seashells is just too good to not want it. Also, functional shoreline dance floor and bar. I demand them.
Anyway, I could see playing this game for a loooong time, especially once the core game gets nailed down and the content gets expanded.
Somehow this fell completely under my radar even though I swear at one point I was recieving emails about it
Also, I'm Antithesis if anyone wants to add me to their friendslist. Gotta love the engineer with the scottish accent.
I played it at PAX and while ignoring the Chosen invasion I did find a disco dance floor. Also, /dance works.
Whelp, I know what I'm doing when I get home today. Now all I need is a functional "/drink" and a functional "/get hammered and wake up in bug nest".
Begging accepted and key sent.Or not!Anyone want a key?Taken. Again. Hopefully.I've actually already received a key from kindly old kildy. Many thanks to all the glorious keymasters in this thread, I hope you all find your respective gatekeepers so that you may bring about the glorious return of Gozer the Destructor.

I'll have to try again when I get home tonight
Neither could I last night. They have a post saying their CDN is having file corruption issues.
I also have 1 other invite, first post after mine to ask for it will get. Don't just pm me as i don't want to get a number of requests.
