Synthetik Universe Forums

First of all I need to congratulate the Devs for the insane achievement that is Synthetik 1 and their understanding of both game mechanics and all the little things that make a game just feel good. That and the involvement with the community leave no doubt that these guys will make the right decisions regarding the second game and I'm excited to see and experience all that happening. However I hardly ever see anyone talking about pretty much the one thing that grinds my gears a bit. Which is that there is no clean way to end a session. This to me should be a basic feature in any game, especially "Rogue-likes" where a run can, depending on your playstyle, last upwards of an hour. I'd love to be able to sit down in the evening, have a small session - maybe just clear one floor - and not have a good run be fucked because I don't have the time to continue. So please, if not for the first, implement a Save&Quit option for the second one!

This is a repost from the discord. I was asked to start a thread here for non-discordians. This was made in response to a post, but it can be taken as a general response to people who dislike the bounce that HG has on all shots. It's very powerful, and since it's not optional, you should master it in order to play the class at the highest level. Discord Text and video below: I made a little montage of various uses of bouncing shots with HG. It's not hard at all to use this as long as you are keeping your mind thinking about the angles. Most of these examples revolve around creating a "kill zone" by using walls the channel your shots against the enemies. Example at 52 seconds is using the things your complaining about - the bullets travelling longer distances, to my advantage to kill offscreen. Why don't I just spray forwards? Angling the shot I get to cover horizontal space increasing the chance of contacting an enemy. then right after I use 2 surfaces to bank my shots to keep me safe from the shot gunner. Notice my dash is down the whole time, so i cannot charge through the shots.

I know this question has been asked several times in several places before, but nothing seems to have happened to resolve this issue since then. The Arena DLC is still not available on GOG, despite this official answer in 2019 to the contrary: https://steamcommunity.com/app/528230/discussions/0/1739980540127017009/ Any updates on whether this will ever happen would be greatly appreciated!
