Just thought some of you guys might like to know that Killing Floor is about to be updated for the new event that lasts from today until July 22nd, and the game is now half price on Steam.



Also check out the latest specimen I programmed, The Shiver.

All the fun of the fair... I might get it for my mac steam account, so we can play 3 player lan games. Always liked KF, and the updates are always good fun.

I know this is a somewhat old thread... I can't seem to find this answer anywhere though...

Does anyone know why the sideshow event hasn't ended? It said it would end July 22nd. I'm getting seriously tired of the carny creatures. I really absolutely do not like them... Aside from the monkey man of course. He's awesome.

Ahhh the originals are awesome! The Monkey Man is certainly better than the original scrake, but the bearded lady, robot, and the sword dudes are terrible IMO. The clots' little bow on their head bugs me too lol.

Oh I see. Thank you sir. Hopefully it ends before August 3rd because I'm going on a 10 day vacation lol.

To me, this game looks kinda nasty....but everyone has their opinions, right? I'd like to stick with Nintendo games like Zelda and Mario, ect.

Heresy (v3 beta.rom )! It's the coolest summer specimen there is, although it's a shame about the head hitbox being bad.

That's why it's great... not a single pony or 'browny' in sight.

I just don't like these kinds of games...they seem really dark. Although that's probably why some people like them. For the thrill.

I don't think we can physically be any more of an exact opposite. The original spiders were the coolest specimen. The Bearded Lady is absolutely retarded!

You are talking about this spider right? The Crawler.
http://www.kf-wiki.com/images/archive/d/d6/20090617165341%21CrawlerArticle.jpg

That's by far the most unique specimen in Killing Floor!!! Crazy black spikey evil looking creature.


The Monkey Man and the Fleshpounder are the only ones I think that are better than the original. The original scrake is boring IMO. It just looks like a typical zombie holding a chainsaw.
The clots are boring, but the original clots were boring as well. The christmas clots were awesome though.

I'm going to start slapping people who bring up "ponies" or anything related in ALL threads outside of the MLP thread. You've all been warned.

Thank you Jeku, it's getting irritating for me too, as well as the rest of us.

If you have any quips or sarcastic remarks on said subject, please take them to the dedicated thread for it, where we will be happy to help you.

I agree, the regular crawler looks a lot cooler than the summer one (which just looks bizarre), but oh well, it's just a special event. My favourite is probably the Husk (robot) believe it or not, although the Fleshpound is pretty cool.

Nonono... I've seen many people compare them (probably because L4D shares some ideas with KF which came before it, such as a fat zombie that explodes when shot) but in fact they are two very different games. About the only thing they have in common is that they both use weapons and the common enemies are 'zombies'.

About time.

*god shoeit wrote a bit of the game, then the internet died just as i pressed post...*


its like L4d only that is totally isnt, enemies come in waves for example, you have different classes, a shop, levels etc, different enemy types, not at all like "special infected" but more like... a wave consists of certain types of enemies, in the first wave you will only see clots and bloats, then there will be clots, bloats, gorefast and crawlers
and so on.

it started as a UT 04(?) mod and was then made into an actual game.

Alright I see. The general gameplay and graphics style are similar, but apearences can be deceiving Any insight onto what people prefer?

When I got the game, I originally thought it was very similar to Left4Dead... but then I started REALLY playing it and in no way shape or form is it even similar. If anything, it is more like COD zombies in that it's waves of zombies. That's really the only similarity though. The gameplay mechanics are entirely different. It's 10000000x better than COD zombies too of course. I couldn't play COD zombies for more than ten minutes because it was so pathetically repetitive and boring.

Yes, thank God. I can't handle the ponies anymore.

I can't handle people bringing them up and complaining, so we're at an accord here. There's a thread for them, I'm more than happy for people who don't like the show to ignore it, as is their right.

Yes, you have said this a dozen times now. I didn't bring up the ponies, never have, never will.

Agreed, mostly atleast. I like the Gorefast's new appearance the most
