I really hope none of the community contracts are timed.
If done correctly, I donāt mind them. Daily Exercise suited what the creator built the contract for, which I enjoyed. Some have a good amount of float, which isnāt bad and I donāt really notice, but it does keep me moving. But then there are some like Houdini, where there is not margin for error. Yes satisfying when would finish, but very annoying. (Side note: I really enjoy the flow PEA made for that contract, but when his play through is 2:59 on a 3:00 contract, it makes me question for the community if a 10-15 second float would have helped).
Although I keep the mission timer on my HUD, so I am always competing against the clock.
Mission timers are one of the first things I turn off whenever I play a new game. I like to take my time and avoid rushing.
Campaign, I donāt use the timer.
Escalations and contracts, I use the timer primarily for planning NPC routes and behaviours.
I havenāt played them yet but they look terrible already.
WTAF. Member submissions canāt come soon enough. Wow.
They were not great. It almost seemed like they played the campaign level once or twice and based the contracts off that. The one Falling Object kill was the only kill that really deviated from a campaign play through.
No kidding.
Iām surprised there wasnāt a Sapienza one in this batch.
KILL SILVIO WITH AN ACCIDENT EXPLOSION (GOLF BALL)
Agreed. I used the Black Lilly up until H3. Now the Shortballer is all I use even if itās a little loud around NPCs.
Both would be better though
Of course. But expecting even one from IOI would be too much at this point.
Next week, Iāll start the submissions thread for CFC! Canāt wait to see your submissions
When it gets to picking the āfinal 3ā - Iām working on a fun new way to go through that process that Iāll present next week when we kick off the thread. If youāre already planning on how to create your contract - remember weāre looking for Pride inspired contracts.
Only 3 featured contracts? Why fewer? Is that because theyāre going to get more focus (i.e. words from the creators about them)?
Or will we just have to wait for answers? Very interested to see what this new formula of CFC is gonna bring
Im glad IOI put a halt to this commercial bullshit and embraced community contracts again. From the looks of it this shitās horrible.
Interesting that it will only be 3. If community contracts are continuing past this season, will there be 2 batches of contracts? One using the traditional method and the second with this new method perhaps?
Yeah, although the timed contract here was certainly enough time to finish and perhaps experiment with, Iām not too big a fan of contracts with what seem like arbitrary time limits. But, Iāve thinking about the eventual āSlothā sin for the deadly sins packā¦ and how theyāll likely use time limits somehow. Hopefully it will have more interesting uses of time (?), and not just tacked on as a complication.
Shhhā¦ you are peaking at my notes of ideas for Sloth.
Itās because he REALLY wants us to wait for that final reward.
Or the award for the last tier isnāt in the current game files and needs to be added with the June patch.
I suspect it to be Goldballer, but maybe I am wrong.
I think the Goldballer is the odds-on favourite, but IOI has surprised us before.
It could be the Goldballer, which I guess Iād be okay with, but Iād prefer something larger or more unique than just a pistol reskin.
