Steam, yes, you can opt in the beta through Properties
Unsure if you can do the same on GOG

You shouldn't have sunk 800 hours in the game before release
It's so good though. It's like eating candy. I just can't help myself. I wanna play more!

I'm glad they're taking their time. Since I'm busy atm afraid that maybe won't be able to finish current beta run until the update.
Maybe, but every time I play a different game I keep thinking about Colony Ship and what build I haven't yet tried on Faythe. Must have all the current combinations at this point, yet, there's always a new theme or playstyle I haven't tried.
It depends. If you have Berserker + 10 Str + Juggernaut + Gladiator; go fast attacks. They do decent damage, are AP efficient and if you have aggro stim you can get more bang out of it. Generally though, as always, I go aimed legs + aimed arms. Then have Faythe follow up with aimed head. Then I go power attack.

Depends on your thc and enemie's DR of course. Power is also nice because of increased crit chance. But yeah, as Pink Eye just pointed out, usually you want to hit legs/arms/head maybe first.
Aimed attacks are so good. If you get dazed effect from aimed head. The effect will last until combat ends. Same thing with weakened state from aimed torso. Aimed head also works on froggos, by the by. See:

Speaking of weakened
I was struggling with this fight to tell the truth and the rolls were so awful that I switched to heavily adjusted and then I saw this. For fuck's sake, game :D

Bro bro bro. Do you have a stasis and gas nade? You throw gas nade. Then immediately stasis yourself.

Update...update! I'm hitting F5 all day long.
Just more Habitat content is all. I'm super excited to see how the Habitat looks like once the devs are finished.

Berserk is too much of a sacrifice you think?
Something I found out just recently, by seeing it somewhere. Man, if only I knew this when doing solo mastermind, some fights would be trivial. Stasis yourself...it just didn't occur! Can waste aggro stims of mooks, poison, gadgets...

I played the initial release (just the first two areas, IIRC) as a 10 int Genius melee blade guy, slightly higher dex but otherwise average attributes with the remainder. Had no issues beating all the optional combats, which seemed absurd for a 10 int stealth character, so I assume the balance has been changed a bit since then? Can anyone fill me on on how melee, stealth, and int-focused builds have changed subsequently? That's the kind of character I want to go with on launch, but I know I shouldn't expect all the traits to work the same way they did at first pass.

I'm most excited for cybernetics upgrades. Need to finish some builds with this cherry.
It is but if you get Gladiator it does help with grazes. High STR build will still do decent damage. Yes. You do lose access to aimed system. Trade off though is that attacks cost way less. For example, Utility Bar can get about 4 attacks. More with aggro stim.
It's even better now since gas affects targets immediately instead of next turn - on beta branch anyways.

Latest mastermind I did without tagging a single combat skill while doing every fight. It's doable but some fights philter you hard. Like triple worms and detroit. Generally, every solo fight where there are too many enemies is a bit hard, like I leave scavs in hydroponics for last-ish.

Oh yeah, I thought it was weird. Kinda dislike it. Too convenient.
Lots of changes, yeah. AI changes. Feat/Skill/Tag changes. Kind of hard to really describe it, but Mastermind character is still decent. If anything. It's even more crazy with new tag system.

btw is it possible to assassinate frogs now?Aimed attacks are so good. If you get dazed effect from aimed head. The effect will last until combat ends. Same thing with weakened state from aimed torso. Aimed head also works on froggos, by the by. See:
No. Devs already confirmed that won't be possible because froggos are not humanoid targets and human character doesn't know how to assassinate them.

Don't think so but you can open a turn on them and attack first. Can easily kill two or more frogs on some builds.
