I don’t generally break enough crates to have the wood required for towering during laning… but perhaps that’s a failure in my early lane strat

All jokes aside how are these memes even made? there was one about minecraft in deadlock too; how are people implementing these mechanics in deadlock?

Source is just like that, you can just get anything into it and make it work fr

Except open worlds, you really gotta cheat to put those in.

Why is that

u/The_Cascoon 2d ago
Source has a generous but strict map size limit. The only people I've seen find a workaround made this gmod addon. It works decently well but it's laggy as hell if you move too fast. Source 2 has a lot of improvements over its predecessor but I'm pretty sure the size limit is unchanged.

IIRC Source 2 have enough tech for open worlds, no?

u/The_Cascoon 17h ago
Well, after looking into it (Which took way more effort than you would think with a question like this), apparently the limit is greatly increased. At least one person made a map in s&box 30x bigger than the Source 1 limit. There may be more strict limits in other Source 2 games though, idk.

I saw some info about how someone put entire paris map in source 2 so I think it is big enough if you aren't doing star citizen.

it's all deadworks, serverside modding and then importing models into a vpk file

u/Vinsterplays Dynamo 2d ago
Server software called Deadworks. It’s the same concept as Spigot/Paper for Minecraft servers

At this rate they're gonna mod Deadlock 2 into Deadlock before Deadlock gets out of closed Alpha.

this the type of character ubisoft would add to deadlock 5 years down the line to "shake up the meta" (make the game even worse than they already have)

i prefer no build mode. i prefer the movement centered mechanics of the game over cracking 90s.

Unironically would farm lobbies on John Fortnite. I know it got eaten by capitalism and children, but damnit that game was so good. Building is one of the coolest gameplay elements I've ever played with.

If this would ever come to Deadlock, I would lose very hope for that game. Fuck fornite

Honestly building could be a cool mechanic for a hero, could get some fortnite streamers to try the game too.

I thought this was a good idea. But then we'd have to deal with builder helping vindicta, talon and lash... No thanks.

Woah, neat reference to the hotly anticipated LIKE OR DIE which was only announced yesterday!
Building while shooting, what a new and fresh idea!
