Though a certain easter egg does cast the tropical paradise in a more sinister light: Yikes. This is the sort of dynamic map design I was talking about wanting more of, and the Far Cry-style aesthetics are just icing on the cake. I also really love the new map! It’s a tropical island with an active volcano that erupts halfway through the session, filling portions with lava and changing where the players can hold out. Every other Zed spawns on every difficulty, and I don’t think he counts as a reskin like the albino Crawlers and Alpha Clots because he’s got a completely original model, animations, and threat level.
At the moment, he only spawns on Hard, Suicidal, or Hell on Earth difficulty, which I don’t like. He’s got this helicopter attack that’s scarily effective at shredding through a player’s HP, he’s immune to being bashed, and he’s probably the most effective glass cannon among the Zed hordes.
Rawr! Picture by princessgucci.įirst things first, the Gorefiend is the newest addition to the Zed hordes, looking like a Gorefast but with two makeshift swords instead of one. A new balance patch has come out for Killing Floor 2, and it’s awesome.
