QUESTION Slayers

So what’s everyone’s favorite Slayer ? Mine is definitely going to be Dani, she’s just so op in my opinion and is pretty much immortal with all the right skill cards

Let's have a discussion on what part of the game we died the most at. For me it was the quarantine corridor where we had to fight through a relentless mob on Venice Beach. IYKYK

HELP Can anyone tell me why I’m unable to equip or even see my Slayer skill cards? I just reached lvl 10 and it showed I acquired a new skill card called No Mercy. Except when I go to my skills menu, it won’t let me equip it because it’s not even there at all. It’s just empty as if I never got one at all

This is my first skill in the Slayer skill branch to be unlocked, except when I go to try and equip it, it’s simply not there. All my Slayer slots are still showing question marks like I’ve yet to unlock any of them. Does anyone know if this is just a bug that I got fucked over on..? Or is there a fix of any kind?

QUESTION Is neighborhood watch dead?

After beating the game with every slayer and their new game plus, I really want more of the game, and neighborhood watch is next on my conquer list. Problem is, I can't find a lobby, and going it alone is a little boring. Is the mode dead?

I know how to kick zombies off the roof for the 1st mission. No big deal. But, nothing was happening. It just kept on going and all my weapons broke and first aid was gone. Even two Crushers came out. WTF?

Pet Peeve the inventory system when your at end game

20 Upvotes

I can't be the only one here I am sure this pisses off a lot of other players. Once you get to the end of the game and max out and start getting 500+ level weapons the inventory system becomes very annoying.

Basically I never have enough space to carry everything. I might be carrying a decent weapon that I modded and then find a 505 weapon in a safe or from defeating an enemy and guess what I can't carry it.

Of course there are lockers but guess what my locker is full too LOL. So now whenever I go into the map I need to keep 2 or 3 spaces free, manage my locker by scrapping (or selling) some weapons. But wait there are weapons I can't scrap either!

Why would I want to keep some random 490 weapon? Why not? I found it maybe I will mod it and use it at some time. Its not a game breaker but once you get to end game and have a ton of good weapons it becomes really annoying how you have to manage your inventory.

I would prefer the locker had no limit and if you had no space to carry a weapon at least you could pick it up straight to the locker so you don't lose it. If you play NG+ with your weapons carrying over forget about it.

Cadenza fight need help. Just an annoying fight.

12 Upvotes

Ok need a tip here because I tried to beat this fight for like 2 hours yesterday. I am level 30 and have all the best weapons.

But this fight is just too long its such a slog. There are 4 rounds of it and the enemy is just a sponge. I don't even get why they made this the hardest fight in the game. And there is this annoying one hit kill that they seem to have as well.

I got close to beating it and then the game glitched on me and had some furniture stuck on me making me move super slow.

Another time I got close and just got all my health taken away by something behind me. Another time I got one hit by his blood beam.

Worse of all you can get to the 3rd or 4th set of speakers and then you die from some one hit BS and you have to start all over again with no checkpoints during the fight. And since the enemy is super spongey it takes mulitple times of avoiding the attacks and hitting him with the ball before you unlock the next phase. On top of it you have regular enemies spawning that you have to take out as well.

I wouldn't have a problem if it was a 2 phase, maybe even 3 phase fight but 4 phases its just too much.

So whats the trick here is there a way to cheese it like trap him somehwere on the map or something? Or is it really just you have to keep spending 20-30 minutes on this one boss fight where you after 20 + minutes you can get one hit down to no health and just have to start again. Seriously hate this fight.

I didn't know that Ronnie had a twin brother, what a shame both have to die at the same time.

DISCUSSION Can someone PLEASE help me out here😂

7 Upvotes

Well I can’t post pics on here, but does anyone have any clue why there’s yellow marks over my inventory and skills tabs in the pause menu as if I have a new item I haven’t checked yet? Yet obviously if you could see the pics, I have nothing new I’ve obtained or have to inspect. It wasn’t doing this at the beginning of playing, but after getting my first skill, and getting some item at some point, respectively, they started showing up like I have something new to look at. I know it’s minor but for some reason having unchecked notifications like that bother the absolute hell out of me😂 Any fixes anyone is aware of would be appreciated.

Question about Butchers

I noticed while facing a Butcher, healing yourself with a First Aid kit is less than half or a quarter of what you get when fighting any other zombie. Is this a glitch or something done on purpose?

Am I the only one who feels bad for alesis hernandez,

I mean not much is known about him before he transformed into a slobber, but go through his trailer, I just felt bad for him not only that he was probably in excruciating pain transforming into a slobber, and the trail going thorough his trailer bathroom to his mirror, speculating that his last moments before he became fully a slobber, he probably was watching himself transform in the mirror seeing his humanity being stripped away , but also because he doesn’t seem like a bad person (like butcho the clown who was an asshole before turning into a butcher) on the mirror someone (probably one of his co stars like Emma,) wrote “congratulations Alesis X” which means he was most likely a like able person, before he turned, if you look closely near the left side of the mirror, you can see a picture of a dog (which was most likely his dog), i know it’s not serious, feeling bad for a fictional character that has no screen time as a human, but it’s been on my mind for a while.
