Afterbirth thread, Ed is damage controlling edition
Triple shot, Quad Shot, Pyromaniac, Ipecac, Explosivo, Polyphemus, various tears up items
>Ed is damage controlling
Is he? Where and concerning what?
>>315335758
locking released content for later updates after dataminers finding more shit and broken stuff in the files
I think, thats what i've been hearing
>>315335758
Like hiden character that got datamined and Ed got buttravaged over it.
>The keeper
Just google it.
>Mfw I get red mom on the Guardian challenge
The wafer saved me from getting fucked though so I won in the end
How'd the daily challenge go today boysI pussied out at the dice room and didn't reroll my run, what was it
The level of OP bullshit you need to get to beat Hush is kind of annoying. I was doing a decent job on Azazel but I fucked up and got hit a few too many times, started with full Soul hearts and died right before he did.
At least I got it done with Lilith on my first try when I got Mom's Knife and Quad Shot.
I should probably get around to actually unlocking The Lost at some point, I thought I at least got him before Afterbirth but apparently not, it's had been a while since I played.
>>315335495
Chaos for best item
Yay or Nay?
>>315336934
It's very tedious, and you probably won't play as him anyway so no worries
So what crybaby shit has Ed done now?
>>315337127
>Godhead on Basement II
Yea
>>315337296
Locked half the content of the game away because he was butthurt about modders.
>>315338223
That's stupid as fuck. I don't know why all these developers are coming out so butthurt about datamining especially when you make the requirements to unlock shit basically impossible to figure out
So whats this alt+tab timer glitch i've heard about for this game?
google returns nothing
>>315336313
Didn't the exact same shit happen with the Lost?
What did he expect?
>>315336313
I googled it but I really came up with nothing
>>315339098
the tl;dr version of it is that there's a fully-coded character lying around in the game called "keeper" that basically uses coins instead of hearts as HP, and nobody knows how to access them at the moment without file editing.
>>315336313
>>315339327
A quote from Tyrone Rodriguez earlier on CobaltStreak's stream:
"It's interesting how the dataminers don't think that maybe we left things laying around for them to find."
>>315335495
>>315336105
>>315336313
>>315338223
Can I have a source on this? I believe you guys, but I want to see the details and drama.
>>315339723
Conjecture and hearsay, that's all you'll find
>>315339770
Yeah I'll just pirate this shit once it's finished updating then.
>>315339941
Edmund's one of the only devs that would be cool with that, so don't act like you're sticking it to him
>>315339723
Look on leddit, they probably have something on it
If I had to take a guess the moddingofisaac sub probably has it since the normal isaac sub doesn't want datamining info on it
>>315339723
The only reasonable source is that there are only 74 new items on the main menu screen. Ed promised 120+ items, which is a pretty fucking big number of items "missing".
Dataminers confirmed that there are indeed "missing" items from the game, pic related.
They could be unlockable but nobody knows how to at the moment.
>>315339327
999 coins on the Ultra Greed donation machine?
>>315340525
Doesn't go past 109.
>>315340074
So he's cool with pirating but not datamining? They both involve hacking because of the steamapi.dll in pirating. Hypocritical.
>>315340429
I bet this item is already unlocked by default its just the chance for it to appear is even lower than normal brimstone aka no one will ever see it
>>315340650
he really wants people to give a shit about his stupid ARGs and is withholding content until we finish it because people datamined the lost despite people already legitimately completing the lost puzzle by that time anyway.
>>315340397
>>315340429
Thanks, I'll check out that modding sub.
But why does Edmund have to be a bitch about the Lost? He seemed like a based dev otherwise.
>>315340687
datamining.
>tfw now these threads are now about speculation over muh locked content and Ed's tweets
>tfw no more comfy rumors about new items
>no more run breaking synergies sharing
>no more fun, just bitching and complaining
Oh well. It was fun while it lasted.
>>315340687
Pretty sure it's just brimstone + poly.
>>315340827
Sounds both egotisitcal and childish. Args are a hard thing to make interesting and pull off well, and making it forced guarantees it's bad.
>Oh hey guys TONS of new synergies with old and new items!
I get the new nail tears and then get burning tears. What do I expect to get? Burning nails embedding niggas. Instead it just overrides into normal tears again on fire.
What is this Ed? The original flash game? Jesus christ.

>2 op runs in a row as lilith
>want to killhush
>game crashes at the gate
i know patch is coming this week, but fuck that...
What are the new forms that have been discovered?
So far I've only seen:
+CTHULU
+Mushroom Head
I was too OP to even tell what the fuck Cthulu does other than flying and was extremely small so couldn't see much.
Shroom head looked like decaying Toad from SMB but other than that I didn't see any benefits.
He said there were a lot more forms but I'm not seeing them.
>>315341340
dude. this is going to be the biggest troll. edmund is going to commit the biggest troll on the planet. get prepared. soon he will unleash the troll gates and with a sly smirk on his face edmund mcmillen will say "you just got TROLLED on a scale of EPIC PROPORTIONS"
>>315341774
Do you have the d4 itself unlocked?
what is the boi afterbirth savegame location? i need to import my saves manually
>>315342648
this desu senpai, imo baka
>>315341121
It's not bad though, just a few people (mostly on /v/) are being babies about not being able to have everything handed to them with a complimentary blowjob. A lot of people (the real BOI community) are enjoying the mystery and are actively engaged in the ARG
The baghead and blank card end up being retarded if you find a card against humanity
>>315343259
I've been farming beggars for the last 30 minutes to see how many items I could get
>>315343382
I dunno if I should move on or keep farming these guys, what are the odds I'll find another chaos card out of a mystery bag? Dunno if I wanna take that or the CAH and hope for more in the chest
>>315343229
The problem with this new ARG is that a shit ton of the DLC's content (at least the missing items) could be locked behind it until the puzzle is solved.
The Lost ARG only dealt with one shitty character, that was it.
>>315341961
I've heard there's a Bob form and a Mom form as well.

The Halloween filter censoring the worst memes. Thank fuck.
>>315344262
>>315344332
Filters? The fuck, don't tell me shit like ROODYPO or CANDYASS are back.
>>315344608
No. They blend in fairly well. It's just a handful of recent memes like f am and c uck
>>315343259
Blank card+? card= 4 items per spacebar use.
it's ridiculous.
Abused the lost bugs back in the day but i missed out on godhead so i can't say i'll ever be getting that.
Lilith's pretty fun. I've been playing coop with a friend online using a screenshare program. It gets a little laggy for him but it's hilarious how smooth it is sometimes. Makes the game a lot more fun.

Elaborate? I would love to play online with friends.
>>315336321
I had four runs in a row where I got fucked over by things like that on the gaurdian challenge.
Including the instant kill poops.
It's one of my favorite challenges but it's a pain in the ass.
>>315344890
Oh neat. I would have filtered senpai but I suck ass at regex and I'd be filtering a lot of other words.
>>315345620
This plz. I need to know how.
>>315345620
Basically, we use Teamviewer and he plays on his keyboard while i use a controller. Teamviewer's alittle wonky though, so he needs to use the numpad and directional keys since the alphabetical ones cause some frame issues on his end.
Also we kick it to lower resolutions for smoother gameplay. You can't play fullscreen either.
More than what edmund's given us.
>>315344939
Holy shit, is the ?card unlockable or no? It works like a single use Car Battery, right?
What is this up here? Whenever I go into it the game crashes, thankfully I can reload my save since I didn't die.
>>315341112
brimstone+poly looks like regular brimstone, but takes longer to charge and does more damage
>>315346249
For the record, you could probably try a second controller if you have the drivers for it. I don't know if 2 controllers ever worked for isaac. Hell, it might let you play on keyboard with them on gamepad if that's the case.
>>315336680
it was ipecac
>>315346690
Hush room
Known crashes with some characters
>>315346690
The seed is "9322 G0DA" if anyone is wondering.
Hopefully the PS4 version rolls around soon. That's where I have all of my progress
>Mfw I try the SPEEED! challenge for the first time

>>315347237
The epitome of RNG DPS race Bullshit to see how long it takes u to become guppy and get brimestone or knife withing 3 floors.
>>315346504
I think I might've seen it in the Greed Mode store? I didn't pick it up since there was a Quad Shot sitting right next to it.
>>315345149
Is that Metaknight?
Pro tip: Hush gets more hp depending on how strong you have become throughout the game.
>>315347237
I just tried this to see what the fuss is. Holy shit
>Get Crack the sky
>I'm slow as shit

I died to the fucking widow. One of the easiest bosses. I don't think I've ever died to the widow.

Reminder to bomb Hush's first phase to make him not be a bullet sponge
>>315348034
>tfw it didn't work for me because my spiders kept slamming his first phase
Still beat him, at least
>>315346504
I found one in the greed shop, no idea how to get it in a normal run.
>>315347463
he is tanky, but if you have the damage, its easy to dodge all the shit
is there any good guide for this game showing you tips etc.
>>315348818
I think greed is either broken or has everything unlocked on default because I've found stuff like fart baby and cambion conception before I unlocked them properly
>>315347237
Reroll until you get Epic Fetus or something. After doing the Lost runs, I got used to the tedium of rerolling until I get a winning combo.
>>315349031
Fuck the wiki for saying he's easier with the stopwatch
>can't get close at all when he's shooting
>laser tearnadoes still full speed
>wall to wall wraparound shots become a literal wall of tears
How do I start greed mode?
>>315347463
Protip: Use bombs on Phase 1. Phase 2's health is determined by your DPS from Phase 1. If you don't attack with tears, the second phase is quite a bit weaker. Same with the Monstro and Ultra Greed.
>>315349557
It's below hard on the difficulty postit when starting a new run, just hit down twice
>>315343229
Shut up faggot.
People paid money for a promise of X amount of content, but were instead given X - 40% amount of content because Edmund is a manchild who didn't get his way last time.
No wonder people are pissed.
I keep hearing about locked content, specifically characters. Is there any official comment on that? Because more content is always welcome.
>content missing

Guys, The Hush is a fucking awesome boss fight, I just fought it for the first time.
I died, but holy fuck that was such a thrill and the GIGANTIC moveset, everything about it was fucking great.
I loved it. Why do people hate it so much? It's just so fucking fun to fight.
I wish more bosses were like it.

>>315347237
I was considering doing it today but after failing 10+ runs on new save with Maggie i just didn't felt like it.
Also, fuck Maggie with a rusty spoon.
>>315347463
epic fetus + inner eye made it pretty stupidly easy.
was the first time I saw him as well.
>>315351507
Had a Lilith run with an Evil Angel/Guppy combo plus quadshot and brimstone.
Took quite awhile, never got close to dying, but it was fun to sway in and out of its bullets and nuke all of its flies to spawn my own.
do you think they'll fix greed mode so that its not broken as fuck?
>>315351507
he's pretty cool yes, but in hard mode he has way too much hp
>>315347237
Turning all the enemy speeds up to 11 and making all the projectiles fly across the entire screen so fast that they literally cannot render correctly should have been the whole challenge.
Why the FUCK is there a 16 minute time limit on top of that?
When will they announce PS4 release date? I sucks having to wait.
>completed greed mode with everyone but the lost now
why is this character in the game again?
I think I'll just be content with what I have now

>tfw playing on ^ps vita

>Got both lil brimstone and Spear of Destiny
>All this close range damage
The first time I ever fought hush in minimum range, but pretty fun. I also got the key so I got mega satan too.
It was nice.
>>315352373
Oh I know I play mostly on the vita, and it's fantastic, better than with the PS4 controller for it. I just want the date at the very least for either one.
>>315352471
>playing isaac during a comfy shit
It's glorious.
>>315352432
I haven't fought hush with him only atm and I'm fucking scared.
Unless i get Ludvico or regular brim i don't see that happening in my future.
>Haven't played Greed mode much yet since I was trying to do Hush first, only cleared it on two characters

>Mfw I get Dad's Key in the chest
The RNG gods were with me
>>315352787
All you need is a ranged way to clear crowds. Hush's bullets go slow enough to react even at close range.
The only problematic attack is the one where he shoots between the sides of the screen. At that point find a sweet spot you don't get hit in or just hide on the side until he is done.
>>315352153
>Get mom's knife
>Have charging enemies and bosses every floor
>>315352840
Finding dad's key on the chest is best feeling.
>>315352942
I've noticed that when Hush does the attack where he shoots through the walls there is a safe space right in front of him.What I do is stand really close to his face and I'm usually safe.
Look at all this stuff!
>>315352942
Hush is fucking easy, did him as the lost too.
Once you memorize patterns the fight is piss easy but Azazels range just fucking kills me.

If you wait long enough without killing enemies, the doors open automatically. It's been talked to death already since rebirth came out. You aren't the first to have a problem with that room.
>>315353724
I never got any, this was only caves 1. None ever dropped.
>>315353572
yeah, you need to unlock the friend box (greed mode) and cambion conception (???) before you can use em.
At least you get incubus.
>>315336321
>mfw I failed guardian challenge because the dummy just walked into red shit

12 hours in, still haven't unlocked Azazel. Do you guys know any Goat Head seeds?
>>315354128
She's pretty good on her own, just a weaker isaac at first really. Abusing the positioning of incubus lets you hit shit without immediate danger like skeletons.
It's overall fun to mess around with but I do agree that it's easier once you get the friend box.
If you really don't want to do it, you could just do the daily challenge.
>XXXXXXL
>cursed eyestill won but that was only because of the D20
>>315354310
Oh i also forgot to mention, she gets the friend box in greed mode by default, so it's an easy win.
>>315354304
Seeds won't let you unlock things.
>>315354342
that was the most tedious thing ever, took me 45 fucking minutes just to get to the heart.

whats the matter anon dont you like breath of life
He still mad about there being a wiki and dataminers?
Why does he need to hide the game's content so deeply anyway? He's going to ARG levels of deep, but he gets mad when people do the typical ARG thing and put on their dataminer helmets.
Has anyone beaten brains or I rule yet?
>>315339848
This.

Does Mega Satan have a unique theme or does he still use Hericide
I love Hericide but that fucker really needs his own theme.
>>315340397
>MGS2.gif
>>315355073
He wants you to feel rewarded obviously. Aren't you going to be happy when he presses his little lever to give you more content. The BoI community will like up to kiss his penis.
>>315355905
Still Hericide.
I kind of wish he had a new one. Hell the title may not fit as much, but I think Infanticide would match better sound-wise.
>>315351507
>Time Trial requirement is the exact opposite of fun.

Nothing about The Hush is good.
>>315356284
>Time Trial
Is that a trial for anything but the worst of runs?
>Bullet Hell
Not really, his bullets are pretty easy to slip between
>Bullet Sponge
I like it because he and Mega Satan are the only bosses that don't die in 3 hits when a run is going well.
does the mode to put the classic music back works with afterbirth ?
>>315356465
I would assume it might.
To be fair, the only song I liked better on the old sountrack was the normal boss, caves, and basement.
Otherwise rebirth's is good.
>>315347529
This so much.
The bullshit challenges are such absolute terrible game design, both in Rebirth and Afterbirth. It's just a matter of time until you finally find some cheese items in a devil or secret room. So pointless. Why can't we just have Treasure rooms enabled, for an interesting new way to play through? Or just plain and simple turn them into unique characters of their own, like Lillith.
And where did the fun and fair challenges go? Like Demo Man or Life Gives You Lemons, etc.
The only fair challenge in Afterbirth seems to be XXXXL.
>>315356652
ahah, no.
What are the best items in the game, in your opinion?
Brimstone is a given.
>>315357078
Epic fetus, especially with new synergies.
That and Tech X, that thing wrecks shit whenever I find it.
Why did my Greed Mode bank just explode?
>>315355396

>>315357369
So I just lost all my progress?
>>315356409
>I like it because he and Mega Satan are the only bosses that don't die in 3 hits when a run is going well.
Which is exactly why he should be in a post Chest/Dark Chest level, instead of another annoying fucking Time Trial objective.
It is NOT fun - I repeat, NOT FUCKING FUN to have to rush levels. It is not. Why? Why time trial? It was absolutely fucking assfucked enough to have needed to do it for the boss rush. I'm still mad you can't do Boss Rush any other way.
Anti-fun. = Time Trial.
Let me work through the floors on my own fucking pace, Edmund! It's not like going slowly contributes to me becoming OP. Rushing for timer might make me miss a good secret room item, and perhaps not be able to afford a utility from the store. That's it. It doesn't serve as balance. If I could, I'd mod the timer horseshit straight out of the game entirely.
>>315357478
Oh, it was maxed out? That's alright then.
>>315357529
>to have to rush levels.
Good thing you don't have to then.
>Placebo pull

Jesus anon do you want the game to hold your hand any harder?
>>315356409
>Have super broken run
>Do jack all damage to Hush because of damage scaling
If I get a broken run, which doesn't happen as often as I'd like, I want to feel broken.
>>315357529
30 minutes is pretty damn generous.
The only time you wouldn't go that fast is if your run was too shit to beat him anyways.
It really isn't that big of an issue, literally every run I have done since afterbirth came out has involved hush.
>>315357683
You do feel broken for literally every boss in the game. Hush/Mega Satan are optional challenges. If you already have the unlocks there is no obligation to do them if you don't like them you know. If you want to feel broken, just skip them and beat lamb/??? in 2 hits.

Fucking why? Tell me. I demand a 600 word essay from each and every one of you, detailing why it is okay for the game to fuck me over for wanting to play it.
>NO FAGOT GO RUSH INSTEAD.
Yeah, this is CLEARLY good game design.
You're all fanboys and I hate you.

I guess so, but that means that I still need to get the unlocks first.
>>315358020
You can go into every room.
I usually do, I like to get all the shit I can. Even then I manage to get to hush.
How fucking slow are you at killing enemies/bosses man? I have been saying this whole time that there is no rush needed. It is real fucking generous on time.

He took measures to keep shit secret by just not having them in the game right now (Notice that the new achievements are shit and there's no new God completion achievement) but for some reason he most of The Keeper's data in the game minus sprites.
>>315357969
you and me both anon
>>315340854
Both Edmund and that other dude are usually pretty cool and likable. They're just pissed they spent months hiding The Lost and it was found in two weeks. They were hoping for it to slide under the radar and come up in a few years but dataminers found it immediately. After this whole ordeal I'm gonna go back to liking them, more than likely. Just a bump in the road.
>>315358020
9 out of 10 runs i get in the time limit for hush even if i don't feel like doing him.
Do you play using one hand or AFK on purpose to bitch about it on taiwaneese origami site?

Brains because you have to wait for the fucking things to respawn and Guardian was just plain bullshit having to rely on the mom fight not to be Red mom or any other instant run killing bosses or rooms.
>Beat guardian on first try
My buddy was pretty smart. I thought he was programmed to avoid spikes/red shit because he barely got hurt.
I remember hearing somewhere that you can unlock Cain starting off with the paper clip. Is that true?
Why does Hush have less HP if you bomb his first form to death anyways?
>>315359880
Yes, you unlock it through Greed Mode.
>>315359880
Put 69 coins in the Greed Machine
>>315358020
I go into every room and usually have spare time left for the hush. Only when I mess with stuff like slot machines I fail to meet boss rush time
>game keep crashing when I use pills
Fuck this game
Why do I seem to see so many broken runs and people with little issue but every time I run I get shit items like the d10 or bob's "Blow yourself up" brain and other bad combinations? Do you people just restart until you get a non-RNG-shitfest run? It's been this way for me since Wrath of the Lamb added a ton of shit.
>>315360545
I know how you feel, anon. I'm on a 11 lose streak at the moment because literally every single run has me getting shitty items on every floor. Having to make it through 4 bosses with a single shot, normal size tear that barely does anymore damage is killing me. Shit just isn't going to work.
I even watched my friend play and he always seemed to get broken shit when he played.
>>315360545
I like Bob's Brain. You get a good damage boost out of it, as long as you're paying attention it's nothing but fun. Even if you do screw up it only takes a heart away.
>>315360250
>using pills
Edmund saturated them with too many dumb effects and not even PHD helps because Neutral pill effects are okay according to PHD and they still end up shit.
>Explosive Diarrhea
>Hematemisis
>I Found Pills
>One makes you small
>One makes you larger
>Paralysis
>Pheromones
>Puberty
>R U a Wizard?
>Re-lax
>>315360778
the danger of bob's brain isn't even an issue in the BRAINS challenge. It's waiting for them to respawn and the delay in firing it when you actually want to use it.
Regular gameplay it's only dangerous in that it respawns at bad moments.
>>315360909
God I know they are so annoying. At least make the larger and smaller ones increase/decrease damage and speed.
Also I got the room after It Lives unlocked in my recent playthrough. Game crashed when I tried to enter.

>Every card has a useful effect, some being very powerful
>half the pills have objectively negative effects, a quarter more have useless effects, and the remaining quarter are just okay
What the fuck was Edmund thinking? This along with Angel Rooms makes me think he has no sense of game balance at all.
Is it just me, or did Angel Rooms become even EVEN FUCKING WORSE in Afterbirth?
I didn't think it was possible/ At this rate the next update will make them worse then the fucking sacrifice rooms.
>>315362625
Well there's more pointless bullshit you can get in them, yeah.

Not every card is useful but the ratio is certainly better.
>Fool: Only useful to escape from a room anyways
>Magician: Homing tears aren't that useful
>Tower: Why
>Suicide King: only for if you have extra lives
>Rules: NO.
>Card against Humanity: Uh
>>315362625
He added an angel room variant that only gives you 6 pennies.
MUH DICK
>>315362837
The good runes are Jera and Algaiz. You may as well not bother unlocking the rest, as they'll just corrupt the pool.
>>315358020
ive never NOT gotten past the womb in 30 mins, and i usually check every room. id say i check 90% of the time
>>315336934
It is annoying, but you have to know that his HPs are scaling with your damage (starting at 6666)
>>315343548
By the time I got tired of it I had Azazel at enough range to hit the other side of double wide rooms, bombs with bomber boy, tear effects, mini bombs, and fire, and ended up inadvertently killing mega satan with bob's brain since the bomb modifiers applied to it as well
>Get a super overpowered run in Greed Mode that auto-nukes the whole screen nonstop

Hopefully this madness with game-breaking bugs and hidden items and 109 bullshit will be over by the time I get a replacement

>Fool, free bosh rush item. Free challenge room items with no bosses/enemies.
>Magaician is a bit of a letdown, but useful in bossrush and challenge rooms on occasion.
>Tower, early on when you have no bombs and a room full of X rocks, secret room, pots ect it can be nice.
>SK is VERY niche, agreed.
>CaH + Petri poop (bonus extra sacks item) is godly as fuck in large rooms.
Aside from maybe Suicide King if you're an idiot, no card fuck you over like pills can. Pills are just, why. All the DLC unlockable pills are useless tier wtf.
Why is my devil room on womb 2 not a ladder to Sheol?
>>315363920
I think he might have changed it where you can actually make use of devil/angel rooms on Womb 2
Which is good.
>>315363920
You get legit devil rooms in womb 2 now.
>>315363995
He did and it's great, I hated being one deal away from guppy on womb 2
I've got brimstone and the pentagram
Do i Take Glass cannon Or Fetus In a jar From the boss rush room?
>>315363849
Hey, hey, that missing card or whatever plus the car battery and white card kept me sane through xxxxxxxl.
>>315364236
Glass cannon if you're running purely on spirit hearts. Otherwise fetus
>>315363849
Infested is nice, filled a room with spiders and they ended up killing everything before I could shoot.
>Blue Bomber
Fun challenge. This room was annoying, had to run up and down until the doors opened. Satan is a pain in the ass because his feet are immune to explosives.
Well this is a nice way to start the have a heart challenge
>Walking into a room
>Brimstone shot from wall
fucking brimstone spiders man.
Also, it really annoys me that a brimstone beam from an enemy can hit you after it's dissipated, and as the beam closes on the edges.
in boi afterbirth, anyone know what a 15 cent item that looks like a red snowflake is?
>>315364940
Chaos. Mixes item pools.
>>315364940
Chaos, changes item pools, so you can get devil items in your item room but gold chest items in your devil rooms.

Makes item pools random. So now the boss pool use the angel room list and so onalso the warp overtakes you

It's like the perfect set up for it since you start with all these heart containers you won't fill probably and it makes room for soul hearts.
