then the semibots would revolt and stop working
WHAT 
blep
I-I- I'm gunna say the fucking F word >:3
Blop
I don't seem to be able to send a Discord game invite into the lfg channel.
Blup
Even tho I am sharing my activity.
Blap
Blerp
Bleh
hey don't FUCKING CURSE!!!
are you using Discord as an app or on a website?
If this would ever happen, there could be an optional minigame where you steal the tokens back
I think I got this bug before, it's weird
Gup
The app
idk then
I know they will never add that, but if they did that would be a cool idea for it
if the update will release on 8 am like the other ones then i must prepare myself then

I never said a damn cuss in my life! I dunno wtf your talking about!
Bleeh :O
nah too much
AHEM! back to talkin bout REPO
Are you a repo
even tho i stay awake until like 12 pm or 2 pm
i'm loving the update already and it's not even out yet
so yeah i have lotsa time to play with people
You first... are you?
i think i am gonna try to draw taxman-
with his claws-
I want to see you guys best score on arena race when the update drops 
I'm feasting on it before it's even out
Haha sometimes
I hope the update releases shortly after i finish work for the day, otherwise ill probably call my boss and tell him im sick
ooh good idea
what do you mean best score?
I mean it just depends on whether your opponents are trash or not
Leaderboard?
How far you can go 
maybe there is a leaderboard
I want to make my cosmetics
endless racing mode!?
Hello there ! I have a question about the upcoming update !
Does the rarity of cosmetic boxes increase with the difficulty level, or is it completely random, meaning you can find legendary boxes even on low-difficulty maps ?
are you telling me right now at this instant
In the devlog about arena race you can see on the hud the amount of modules that you completed, that's the score
being able to play the king of the losers minigames anytime would be cool but also in a way you can just self destruct on level 1
When is the Taxman dating update rolling out?
question, will cosmetics be unlocked for your profile or just the run?
IT BETTER BE PROFILE
the issue is that the update isnt released yet. so i dont know if im allowed to answer this
they're permanent
thank you
Unlocked forever for you
Ima guess the rare ones can appear but they’re more common in later levels
Ah good
tyy
profile
Yeah, we can't spoil what hasn't been shown
Oh sure, makes sense !
once you unlock them you cant get them remove unless you play in another steam account with the game
Does it have to be a public or private lobby for it to work?
If it was just for the run, everyone would hate the update
Nah you get unlucky and spend 6 levels to get a common box and you get 1 cosmetic for the run until you die
||THIS IS A JOKE NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY||
has that been said anywhere 
so whats up with the hand on the cosmetic boxes? from what i understand you can "heal" them if damaged to make sure they make it to the extract? correct me if im wrong
(for the Steam link too)
But you keep the cosmetics permanent and you dont have to collect them again each round right?
That's a good question, but I think it's yk intuitive? I guess? Considering the amount of cosmetics shown
yes, correct
in dhudizis defence what dafug else can you assume when semiwork says "meta progression"
yes
I hope you guys aren't gaslighting me
BRO THATS HORRIBLE! DEVS ARE SO BAD THAT SYSTEM IS GARBAGE! BOY DO I HATE THAT! I'M GUNNA COMPLAIN ON EVERY REPO SOCIAL EVER!
thank you fellow polish person 🫡
it is but you didn't ask the higher-ups, now you're gonna be executed
yeah true, was just wondering lol

the server just revived at the instant that devlog launched
oh my godness
and this is just a devlog, now imagine when the update launches
Pontus has called it "meta progression" in devlogs
so like what else can you assume
GO REPO GO REPO GO REPO I AM A MERE ROBOT ALL I DO IS WHAT I'M ASKED!
Defibro should work on the boxes and revive them once they're broken /j
TO DO TO DO WHY MUST WE DO?
"worst game ever, my mom said I shouldn't be playing scary games and now I lost my PC"
imagine if it could revive monsters from orbs, legendary trolling potential
DON'T GO LEAVIN ME! DONT STOP LOOKING BACK!
omg that'd be nasty
I love that song, it's so good
SO PEAK
it's great but could be better at times
absolute P.E.A.K.O.
Beggining and shop part were mid...
also in the video it says "R.E.P.O" so instant 0/10
I dislike the dialogue scenes, they mess up a bit of the pacing, but everything else is amazing
I like the taxman part, the animation is sooooo good
my music taste is absolutely garbage so its kinda mid to me
Whhyyyyy must we DO
yes but also they sometimes sing with a weird tone, I won't be able to explain it but it sounds bad
robots rejoice, your purpose is clear
I wonder if Repo devs ever heard that song...
and by garbage i mean i dont like a lot of music
I mean, it's not my taste too but I appreciate the dedication
There is no way they havent heard it
retrieve, extract, and profit, so cheer
Killing you right now
i made you my own, i made you exact
YOU TUMBLE AND SHRINK
you tumble, and shrink, and make us fat stacks
Dhudizi im a top level speedrunner for other games. i would grind levels for hours on end with no music. ingame or out of game
“They added over 400 cosmetics, vehicles, a revive bot, a leaf blower, 3 wands and many more items all in half a year…. but they didnt add any maps, WORST GAME EVER, LAZY DEVS, I CANT BELIEVE THEY DID THIS” - from some ungrateful and impatient steam player out there
i am a masochist dhudizi
Yeah, but like, it's fan made and super high quality so aside from these little nitpicks there isn't much to complain about, it's pretty solid
yeah
The sad part is there are unironically people like that
also testers, how many cosmetics have you unlocked while testing?
servers are probably going to die but lets not reach that point eh?
Pretty much
I know, ive seen lots of them in the comments under semiworks announcments
there's even some people like that in this server
Man, It's more than 400, no one was able to get everything so quickly, I think I personally got 40 or 50-ish cosmetics
Good thing there’s way more positive comments on them than negative
im legitimately going to answer honestly
3
wow
this is peak
but like you have tokens left, right?
wow okay
does anyone know if everyone in your lobby gets the item
otherwise i just know there will be people grieving
your token is your item
don't you mean peak-o?
damn
but you don't share tokens
so wait does everyone in the lobby get a tax token or
once the box is extracted, each player gets their own cosmetic tokens
(btw he has a tower of tokens that he doesn't want to use)
ohhh
yea but you don't share it
SHUT
lenguage
can you screenshot it and show us after the update?
cooooollllll or something
it goes off screen tf you want from me
@nimble spire do you perhaps need some….tokens? 
I want to see it even more then
From what ive seen, im pretty sure you cant get repeated cosmetics?
that'd make no sense
do they stack on top of eachother
yeah
like not for one color but for all
@jovial tide when the update drops can i like send you my file and you can check how many i actually have?
probably
cause i genuinely dont know how else id find out
not sure cause all we've seen is uncommons
Manually count them 
im in calculus do you think i can count?
I know, what would even be the compensation if that even was a feature
1 billion dollars
whats the cosine of a token?
oh I forgot to ask, the tokens themselves also save between saves? would be weird if they were assigned to saves
nothing
Meta progression, you have them in all saves
okay
Billions must extract 
the uncommon grinding
sad thing is that you dont get to see the cosmetics in like the little flappy head when you die or when you are in the lobby
like you know
the one in the down left corner
I mean, making 2D icons for all the head cosmetics and their combinations with different colors would be... Pretty insane yk
maybe in 1.0 release?
also it's your "soul" so it makes sense not to be with cosmetics
me excited for 3.0
I don't think it's worth spending resources on that tbh
i also wanna point out, i'm pretty sure pontus scrolled through the whole cosmetics list in the devlog, so we can count how many there were in that video
though the number might change when the update drops
-# i'm sure as hell not gonna do it
a tester said at least 400
i expected 100 cosmetics and instead i got 4 times that
Idk what the devs are eating, but damn is it giving them energy to make all of those
so wait is this update the 1.0 update ?
no it's not
I mean one person needs to count all of them, and id count the sets as one cosmetic
its 0.4
Later this year (if everything goes well)
IT WILL!
(E.g the left and rigjt arms)
guys imma count them wish me luck
Go ahead
I mean it's also that there are so many different pieces, so it makes sense that there are so many
yeah and multiply them with the color ones
if we include the colors of the cosmetics and semibot pieces and there must be trillions if not more of combinations
As shown in the video, there's 1 category for each part and each part can have different categories, like head can have head top, head top overlay, hat, etc
So yeah, that's why there's so much
yup
Are the cosmetics per run or sort perma unlocked?
perma
Perma
perma
Cool stuff
I'm so gosh darn excited
Anyways, have fun waiting, I will go back to making my fan art for the update
Byeee peopleeee
Aww fiddlesticks, my Steam Deck is still broken -_-
bye
i think that all the ram went to semiwork and not ai companies
you know 32 petabytes of ram for a crate
No no, it's still going to AI
Bye bye
Taxman is AI (as far as we know)
AI(taxman)
but is not ai company is ai taxman
I mean if the taxman is ai, there could a way to outsmart him
I remember the very old dev log where Pontus said there is a lore implication to why Taxman looks the way he does, I wonder if he isn't fully AI. Like what if it was like Harley Sawyer.
If his face has a lore implication, and isn't just a quick render to look creepy... why is it fleshy?
I broke a cart in a lobby herre
fleshy you say... maybe he is a combination of ai and some organism
okay so the box on the thumbnail has green details, maybe that's the common one
it might be perspective but it looks like it's ¾ of a box
Kinda thought he may be like the Singularity from Dead By Daylight. (google him rq)
maybe he's biomechanical
yeh
I DID NOT EXPECT THAT YOOO
maybe
I DIDN'T THINK WE WOULD GET A DEVLOG
I 100% think he's the DBD Singularity
my personal theory is that taxman uses emojis because he is an AI
LLMs can't communicate, they can imitate language but they can't truly express themselves because... you know... they aren't actual living and breathing things.
So taxman hides himself behind emojis because that is a simple way of expression that doesn't require much work to be done
actually, because of me they decided to post a devlog, no need to thank me
Ok, I won't
just curious, why did you predict it?
this update will be so fun
until you ask him to give you a seahorse emoji
but we got one last week
ok guys i have counted them all

the last Friday before the update, that'd make sense to break the biweekly cycle
how many?
thanks
He said don't thank him
there is a problem tho
fair
Let's see if it's accurate 
thanks for saying
that's close to 400
alright, what about the rest?
Hmmm
I'm excited for the Taxman grabbing you with the gravity thing to show you your cosmetics... it isn't EXACTLY what I fantasized in my dreams of Taxman but it's close enough
gulp
''hey look! shiny"
I'm going to mod to give myself every cosmetic, then join public lobbies to smash every crate I find.
is that some kind of kink
i'll be honest, i didn't expect eyelid and grabber cosmetics
Repo finna be banned somewhere for "gambling"
and I will be killing you
I want him to cuddle me, but have him gravity manipulate is the next next next (55 more nexts) best thing.
Anything they do is a kink atp 
drums
420? 
67
162
never open your mouth ever again

huh
that's less than i expected, but good enough!
Mhmmmm mhmmmm mhmmm mmrrughmmmmmm'
i already said i didn't count the hats because of a cut, but there are more than 35 as i said
Pyro:
was i accurate?
there's always more to come in future updates
atleast for a few thousands
that's what's visible in the video, there's 400 at least
🤐
the video was probably recorded in an older version then 

we saw the eyelids but the grabber is a cherry on top
wait grabber
yes, there's grabber cosmetics
guys i think i counted wrong
and they're fun, all cosmetics are really fun, but the grabbers are very creative
i see
the grabber is never visible in first person, right?
pontus didn't unlock any, can't wait to see them
and now i proceed to put the f word in mayus
or is it when you're grabbing something
correct
okay okay
so some of the cosmetics are just for multiplayer
unless they change something
or introduce something
like mirrors
walkie talkie 
I need to see clips of the walkies, I love them so much
I'll use them as cameras
bla bla bla ble ble blu blu blu
hello? hello hello?
will be cool to see what modded cosmetics people create 
i'm excited to see some modded vehicles
I wonder if walkie-talkies can use expressions but it seems like this emoji confirms it 
not sure idk
there's no expression like that even when combining them I think
do i make the countdown public rn
Half the community forgot the talkies existed
wdym
i made a countdown for the update
BOOOOOMMM!!!!
frano has a countdown in his bio
cause the devs have talked about them once, same goes for the leaf blower basically
he putted it for 4 am
what do the diffrent cosmetic box raritys do?
my friend did so blame him
Leaf blower best
different rarity cosmetics
imma help you out
okay thanks
so more fancy looking cosmetics have higher rarities
Different rarity tokens*
@time
fancy or just more special idk
I can help you die more effectively
go ahead
i also wonder what happens if you already unlocked all the cosmetics of a certain rarity
maybe it gives you a lower rarity cosmetic?
[you] 
THE HEAVY IS DEAD
H-Hey man... Let's not be rash here
Why is the heavy dead?
ooooh wait
I think friendly did it
Pontus shows up to your house to personally congratulate you

We do
okay then

let's be honest, pontus is a celebrity atp
It gives you [REDACTED]
ooh, my favorite!
@green jolt
alright so now you have it right
1 hour early but eh im too lazy to get it to 8 am
lwk goated update, the way you get cosmetics seems really fun
also gambling
so it gives, huh? you've already shared more than you should've 
GAMBLING 🤤
AAAAAAAAHHH
YOU'RE FIRED
yup
thanks
it's fine, the update can be released at that time
raise your hand if semiwork is your favorite dev team just like me
🖐️
I'm using the earlier one

Stress level zero on top
semiwork close 2nd
WAT

repo is gonna be revived with the update its lit
other channels are meaningless
it's not dead 
This one has the Pontus blessing, duh.
duh
hey guys
hey guy
got no mouth when you need to scream?
Hey g
Ello 
do you know if the cosmetic coins are shared among players
People come and go, Honestly just how it's always been 
cause my mates are greeeeedy
Do the mario
each player gets their own
no, you all get them from the same box though
i know! these devs are goated!
Next update will begin IMMEDIATELY!!!
Okay this is actually insane
(Hopefully they do take a break lmao)
I did not expect this many cosmetics god damn
I did 
that's a lie, I forgot I got shocked when someone told me it's at least 400
Hey, Frano. How long have you played R.E.P.O.?
since like March last year
if anyone from semiwork sees this, PLEASE take a break! 🙏
Huh?
I bought it March 2nd 2025
Its news to me that it's news to you
Wowza
what?
Qhar
around the time it got popular, a little before
what are you on 
Energy crystal
i started playing a little after it got popular
I've seen semiwork's tiktok where they were holding the time capsule
and then I saw other videos with clips
Guys
and bought it
Guy
Gu
G


is that what's beyond nothingness?
Yes
No that's the trudge rework silly
LEAKER
what trudge rework?
I don't understand
-# Trudge used to one shot no matter what
yeah
IM GOING TO HAVE PONTUS BLOW YOU UP WITH THE ROBE

I thought you were referencing the void staff and so that it's the void
oh, i'm guessing in like the veeery early versions of the game?
like v0.1.0?
it still oneshots if you are hit by its attack if you have less than 100 hp
if you get hit by the maze he is holding then he will oneshot unless you have more than 200 hp
ig in early versions he oneshotted no matter what
repo
Poor baby semibot 🥺
Wait... @green jolt did you watch the devlog????
What happened to your "I'll go in blind without spoiling how to get the cosmetics and find out yourself"?? 
😂
I will watch the trailer
you get it in boxes
tbh, that was my intention, too, but i also wanna support their yt channel
they deserve it
hype
if I had watched the trailer before playing I would have been spoiled
I got REPO a day after Monster Update released
you're not og 
At this point everyone might as well be OG since still in early access 😂
I remember someone gifted me repo when it first came out, without it I probably wouldn’t have ever played and wouldn’t have met such epic people 🤍 
I had repo before the very first update 
wow amazing
same same, since March 2nd
I just get tormented by balls Timmony.
i usually send the devlog videos in a group chat with my friends, but i won't send them this one
i'll give them the blessing of experiencing those cool animations first hand
What happened
FRIENDLY HAPPENED I HATE FRIENDLY, HE IS MY NEMESIS!!
Mrs Oblivion, your bio says R.E.P.O and not R.E.P.O. 
fix this issue immediately or you will get annihilated
WHAT

-# to be fair I don’t even have repo in my bio
I do temporarily
You are really existing
perfectly balanced, as all things should be
Oho... Frano crashed then..!
thank you 
i wonder if this update is gonna come with a discord quest
Gambit would be perfect cause he's round and also you gamble for cosmetics
smh this update is gonna flop... i think i can speak for all of US when i say WE wanted paid skins right guys
Homer dropped his donut
you got me scared for a second
I'd love for some some cosmetics to be tied to achievements/challenges down the line too, Stuff like "Extract all valuables on a map without a scratch on Level 5 or higher"
no beta for cosmetic update? gonna be so many bugs throughout May
This gonna be the 1.0?
this is 0.4
Maybe… maybe not, but it is pretty big update
-0.9
This is also the update they're adding scooters, the new king of the losers variant, and shop variants, right?
And magic!
I'm sad that we won't get color wheels for colors
Yeah those too
What other colors could you possibly want
All of them
King of the lovers 🫦
What if I want all 900 different shades of BLUE
idk, every color to exist
Autocorrect lol
I want blue blue, sky, blueberry blue, raspberry blue, baby blue, cyan, -list the hundred blue color names
Coral overalls, purple semibot, purple bunny ears, yellow eye lids
I think their is a color named air… 
I want tanks in REPO 
True scrap all the colors, lets add tanks
hear me out, since you can color every part of your body now you'd be able to do very pretty gradients
The headman will stand no chance anymore
And shading!
exactly
I mean wouldn’t be the perfect shading but would be cool 
Anyway my shift at work is starting now
goodbye chat
NoOooo snazzzyyyy :C
Have a good day at work
don't let Tax Man down!
How would you shade it though? There's different lighting and angles that you can't really shade for
not sure but I want gradients
Kinda how you shade when drawing, with colors
Its not technical shading, it just kinda mimics it

It makes it have more depth if that makes sense
You can't shade for every possible angle with just one set of shading, it's not a still 2d character.
Not trying to say it's a bad idea, just saying why I think it wouldn't work
Wasn’t talking about angles or anything, it would just be very basic creative shading with cosmetic colors
You can do that with just basic colors 
I just don't really see how you can shade anything when you can only color the sections of it, which are fairly large
It would be very limited, but still give depth to the semibot
And its just the thing you could do, it isn’t a thing you have to do or believe it can do
Don't they have shaders on them in-game anyway? Lol
😭
Alright, we are on very different pages
You are thinking of literal graphic shading
I'm guessing you're thinking more artistic shading?
Im thinking of basic color shading that is very limited and yes
Imagination/limits with the cosmetics
Someone might make a color wheel mod to have all the colors, it might not show it for anyone else who doesn't have the mod, but you'd still look cool to yourself lol
Yuh
I hope they add it in the future or even before the update launches
I doubt it, it seems like they're done with the update
It would be so awesome it would be so cool
It would be the most incredible cosmetics update the world has ever seen
it already is, wdym?
reference to something
oh, i didn't get it
yall the baseball trash?
blep
droools
also guys
idk if you guys even noticed it but the cosmetic boxes were teased 2 months ago
and i have a screenshot of their early design from one of the devlogs
the one with the super simple models?
that would make sense
i mean yeah
so they were planned from the very early stages, neat
omg the common rarity ones are tiny
this is technically not a leak because its in one of the devlogs
also now we can have an idea of how the rare and ultra rare boxes are going to look
they are wide
and big
TAXMAN SCREENTIME we have been blessed
what
taxman being shown in the devlog for like more than five seconds
like his face
is everything okay?
what would he look like
i <3 taxman
no you dont
the animation of his hands was actually really awesome
you havent seen him
no its pretty good but not like the best or anything
youve only sent a bunch of emojis to him
realistically 2nd best melee? with inflatable 3rd probably

this new devlog has given me more things to add to the taxman shrine
can’t wait for the update frfr
Glad ur happy lols
WE are happy 
im noticing that the rarer the cosmetic box is the larger it gets
yesss i saw that too!! it’ll prob be a pain to move the larger ones but so worth it
Cuz more ram
we have the drones
truth… i forget those are an option sometimes
its not like they're not like valuables right?
also you know the axe
the one that appears in one of the devlog thumbnails
i assume you’ll be able to attach drones to the boxes
yessiree
the axe is still real in my heart 💔
ig someone will make a mod to re implement it
we desperately needed new weapons anyway so i’m still grateful
Leaf blower
GOATED weapon. outclasses everything /j
leaf blower is the equivalent of the phrase "who invited bro"
I won't stand for this
leafblower slander will not be tolerated
i mean sure it has physics damage
its like a FAN
a FAN that is on MCJANNEK STATION
it’d prob be highly effective at disposing of gnomes so that’s great
It looked like it weighed a million pounds in the devlog
Hoyo, unsure exactly where to ask this question as it doesn't fit in the forum, but if they covered it in the video, i missed it, do we know if the tax tokens are individual to the player or is it a shared pool like the money is?
Individual, no sharing
Not confirmed at all
^^^
woo! thank you for the quick confirmation! have a great day ^-^
spoke too soon XD
I meant he was spreading misinformation
disappears in a cloud of smoke
bye mossy! have a good day!
they went from Mossy to Cloudy
No i wasnt, its a fact
The dev literally just said u were wrong
A dev of repo
Oh my lordy lord
I'm assuming someone else had the same question earlier and it was confirmed
Mossy just confirmed it's shared
Live in chat
i could tell from the devlog that each player gets coins
Oooooooh, you mustve misread my message
You didn't explain it right
Sorry I can't read either
I meant each person gets a coin, shared means everyone shares the same 1 token
Yeah my bad
Which isnt true
Double miscommunication
I cant words right
duuuuude, may 7th is so close, yet so far
You guys will luv it
more than i already do?
Who wont?
if we simply delete the days inbetween today and may 7th, we can have it tomorrow!
Evil version of @fallow lintel
TRThaiM
Yes
TRThaiM
Dang it, I was too slow
GET AWAYYYY
Ew
"this update is gonna be soooo boring"
least cynical Steam forum user
They probably expect 10 maps, 50 monsters, and millions of new content per week
Extremely accurate
i wonder tho, if 0.4 is this big, what exactly are they planning for 1.0?!
adding a playable repo to repo
Theyre gonna add the entire milky way
Shaders and Ray tracing/j
Semiwork gets bought by EA by force and sadly becomes slop
yearly repo slop 
we can have REPO28 by next year
1.0 will be the release of the game, so they are probably planning something really big to call the game truly finished
Cosmetics are now unlocked via microtransactions, pay to revive yourself (also defibro deleted) and much more fun corporate AAA money hungry features which will eventually kill the game
it's gonna be absolutely awesome i just know it
I< personally want to see a new map (preferably a train station, I will post a concept for it on the forum someday) a new moon phase and big improvements to high levels
what have I missed
because I gonna be truly honest, I have 500 hours of repo and I think that high levels are the worst part of the game, it's where the game is in it's most raw state and just shines the least
also confirmed, the coins inside the money bags aren't called "tax coins", since tax coins are used for cosmetics
going from level 12 to level 20 is just not fun, enemies go from being actual monsters to being "eh alright I understand buddy, now can you please die? I have 5 fucking extractions to complete and you're making it take longer"
in my level 20 run I just gave up on completing level 20 because I was getting spammed with monsters all the fucking time and a rugrat grabbed my 60K money bag and JUMPED INTO A PIT WITH IT
that moment resumes how I feel about high levels, it's monsters not being scary, they're being annoyances, barely anything can kill you and it takes SO LONG TO DO ANYTHING
it's overall, the least enjoyable part of the game I want to see it being improved
more moon effects that are random and could possibly aid you would be cool and help with long-term runs
whats everyones thoughts on the devlog?
I think Semiwork should eventually do some kind of wild card update where they expand upon everything they’ve done so far (a new map [albeit smaller most likely] some more monsters, more cosmetics, vehicles, weapons) along with some other great things, it will hopefully (2% chance) make those steam forum people happy, although ive got a part in my brain thats saying that this whole thing is a bad idea
absolute cinema
@abstract junco TIMMMY YOU WERE RIGHT (this is off topic to you sorry timmy
I personally like it but I slightly am middling with what they did by letting us unlock stuff individually
I feel like its going to take time to get like a full set of something you'd want
repo before and after level 20 are two different games.
post level 20 is fundamentally an endurance challenge more than anything else
fantastic
fair. we'll see how collecting cosmetics plays out to the live masses
a endurance challenge that is not really enjoyable, I want to feel threatened, I want to hide and see the monsters passing by, I want to have to think carefully on what I am or not going to extract, but high levels just aren't that
I mean in defence too it actually forces u to play a lot more which is what they said they wanted to achieve with this partly
thats fair
i hope they do consider a balance update for late game, not like huge changes because not everyone will get to late game, but late game shouldnt be the boring labor that it is
I think monster spawns should be changed to improve the pacing and difficulty, the start of high levels is just pure monster spam and then the rest is just moving things and having to deal with more spam after 3 or so minutes
I think that at the start of the level only tier 1's should spawn and then, as extractions are completed, more monsters from higher tiers appear leading to the chaotic final extraction where everyone needs to run back to the truck while avoiding everything
lean into the endurance aspect by making enemys take away max health when your hit past level 30 
I personally want a fairer better way to play higher lvls, instead of just pure chance of a monster somehow scoreing you into a pit (upscream stunlocking you like 4 times in a row)
Chance?
what do you mean exactly?
I sometimes dislike the fact that tier 3s spawn on the first level, i know its supposed to make the first few levels a bit more challenging, but still
this change would improve monsters like the loom, having her appear only way later in the level makes the pacing not feel all over the place, having her at the start just kinda kills the mystery of when she is coming
I mean by just being very unlucky to be tossed like into a pit or something
would lead to overstacking first extract and then rushing every other extract to ignore/interact with higher tiers at little as possible
I feel like the first 3 levels should be more straight foward, like level 1 is just a tier 1, level 2 is a tier 1 and 2, level 3 is a tier 1, 2 and 3 and then things keep going
I couldnt be more happy with how they made the cosmetics work
I like it that way
then make it timer based and completing extractions increase the timer
the longer you spend without making progress, the more enemies will appear
There are so many factors, like what if they just got bad shop rolls (and they dont wanna save scum) and they suffer from just not being able to finish fast enough and get monster spammed
Ignore all low value items, rush through map to find as many 20k objects as possible (dont use cart) and stack 100k on first extract in 5 minutes. rush rest of level
but in the current system you get monster spammed right at the start
oml wait we are just flooding repo chat LOL
the issue with stalling the start of late game is that with how many upgrades you have and things you will see that players will just rush and ignore any scaling difficulty
see, that's why I want high levels to be changed, it's not easy and we need a lot of people talking and giving feedback about it in order to work
The beat way to make late game more fun is to make enemys a threat that you need to respect even in late game
:)
games still early in dev, im sure there will be more to come
I understand why tier 2s spawn later, they have extremely varying and unique powers and features that make some weak and easy to deal with (bangers) and some very annoying and sometimes deadly (the bowtie or rugrat), heck one of them is completely luck based (the handsome and amazing gambit)
not early, it's been a year already and next update is likely to be 1.0
moons that simply upgrade the enemy stats
Its still not full release tho
making the enemy spam harder to deal with would only make things take longer and be even more boring
Early access
I think we should have a way to reduce the amount of enemies but keep the game hard
like... moon phase monster variants... maybe... that is something on the "would be cool to add" list...
Explodes
idk, I haven't played on later levels whatsoever
Man I only gotten to lvl 10 once LOL
it's chore simulator, really
I have this idea in the back of my head that they should add new monsters that exclusively spawn via the moon phases
same, I'm on level 10 rn, I was further on multiplayer
nah
My highest level ever was 27, i want a better one
or make some of the current monsters have new attacks that require you to deal with them in more elaborate and skillful ways
like, idk, headman has floating manor items around him and he throws them at you while chasing, when he has zero he is able to take damage
ANYTHING to add more gameplay depth
I don't like this
this would be a good start, but that needs to be communicated in some way, his design would have to change in order to communicate the gameplay change
otherwise it would be confusing
so explode
why would it be confusing?
?
banger pfp
All he has to do is move his body
Ena is so peak
because the player was used to the previous mechanic, then suddenly it changes without any way for the player to know that
If there were no changes otherwise, you wouldnt know where he would aim next
thanks!
but you mean an overall buff or a moon buff?
a moon buff to enemies
okay that makes sense then
and no, can't add a description to it when the moon screen appears, listing all the changes for all the monsters like that would clutter the screen and no one would read it
If they do that, the buffs should be per tier, tier 1s get the buff first, then tier 2, then tier 3, or maybe only the tier 3s get the buffs, one or a few per moon phase
the max that can be done is "monsters have new attacks"
I don't like this whatsoever
sure, these exact changes are lacking, but the concept is there
The monsters just need actually good and balanced buffs for the moon phases
are 5 extractions necessary? 4 should be the max probably
that's what I want to convey, there's potential on making things better
I think 5 is fine
EXACTLY, maybe in multiplayer but in singleplayer is awful
it seems to be very tiring
what overhaul
Oh you mean singleplayer, then hell no, 5 is too much
spinal pain
singleplayer
okay
close enough
yeah that too
Dude i am horrible with typing rn
it is, having to move multiple big valuables to multiple extracts while dealing with monster spam take way too long and isn't that exciting
Im just sleepy just watching the chaos
I like the idea of the bike having storage for valuable (albeit only smaller ones), they should add some way to make the transportation of large valuables easier and faster
something that can shrink things maybe
Maybe not just a new vehicle, but something else
If it is a vehicle, forklift please
i honestly think that decreasing respawn times is fine
but the minimum shouldn't be one second
the thing is, high levels are tiring, but they're not hard, dealing with enemies takes a couple of seconds, monster spam just increases the time but not really the difficulty since monster combos aren't really that challenging
most enemies function with the same base:
see player, chases player
there's only a few that do something different and the synergy between them isn't really that good
the most challenging monster combo that I know is anything + peeper since it requires your full attention
I love the birthday boys mechanic honestly
outside of that, it's most of the same take distance and shoot
he is pretty good, most of the monster update enemies are pretty amazing
he is pretty weak though
I mean, for a tier 1 it's pretty good
my favorite part of the birthday boy is shooting him once with the gun and he just flies away and dies
he is strong for a tier 1?
I think hes balanced for a tier 1, his balloons are usually easy to dodge, but if you do hit one, you get punished
I disagree but okay
I break his balloons all the time with basically no consequences
Cuz when he gets stunned, he forgets to attack you and goes on with his day
yeah
i mean, once you get a single weapon, some t1's and t2's are easy money
cough cough tranq gun
-# or pistol
I like the pulse pistol/ normal pistol combo with strength saves money
Pulse pistol monsters into pits on certain lvls
that's the fun way
Bboy is too trivialized with 4 strength
or the cheese way where you tranq them, grab them, and flick your mouse back and forth with no strength
I know 4 strength usually trivializes enemies with that breakpoint to an extent but bday boy is just too easy cuz I mean like he just loses all aggro immediately so wow
can be done with any monster
I think that if you pop the balloons with your body they should do something to you
like 1-5 damage or make you tumbled for a short period of time
so you have to be more careful with them
Idk this doesnt rly do too much
Why not just pop it with a held item
not much but for a level 1 monster it would be great
ehh idk
I'll leave it to semiwork if they want to buff him
Just make him not immediately lose aggro when picked up I have no idea why thats a thing
Or maybe even 9 strength breakpoint but idk maybe thats too good for bday boy
Same thing happens with bella too
Bella is fine because it is 9 strength
Also you dont need 4 strength to stun him, you can just tumble into him for him to be stunned and lose aggro, same with bella
she is?
I hated pre nerf bella
This is doable but difficult against an aggro'd bday boy
Yeah
Thats why I think bella is actually a scary tier 1
Well, that and the fact that she is one of the most deadly enemies when activated
Its easier against bella cuz it takes time for her to start attacking (also when she gets stunned, her bell counter resets)
Yea its nice against bella
i was able to pick her up with 3 strength
hellooo!!
Did you pick it up with a friend
Or was it stunned
No enemy has a 3 strength breakpoint I think (maybe spewer idk)
Nope
well she was still kinda heavy, but i didn't do it with a friend
Every monster has either a 4, 9, or 13 strength breakpoint (except for bowtie, who has 7)
I swear bowtie is 9 but ok
for the longest time, i though his name was "blowtie"
Bowtie just wanting to be special for no reason
i call him blower because
I still think that should be his official name
Why not?
WHOAH, man
what
that sounds a bit not good
why not
I also dont like the name “headgrab” i used to think it was a placeholder name when it was first shown
whats wrong with it
well, that
oh...fuck...yall right
Yeah..
Yeaahhh ill stick to bowtie
what would you call him instead?
blowtie lowkey
doesn't sound bad and merges two words
What's wrong with blower? He blows you so blower sounds like a good name to me
clever
Good question, i dont like the name yet i dont know what name to give instead
I would just call him Goblin
Not all need clever names like the Gnome isn't called "swarmer"
i'm personally okay with headgrab, but if i had to chose a different name, i would just call him the thief
i just call him the boxer
because i rarely see him with a head, so to me he just starts a boxing match against me
rugrat
I JUST FIGURED OUT SOMETHING!!!
Ok... crazy theory but hear me out...
I think... the monsters have a hard time seeing you when your hiding <_<
WHAT
proof?
he actually brought my friend back to the ship after final extraction once and i lost my shit laughing
i was like "is she dead?" and he just comes running in
i wish i coulda clipped it
New Moon phase effect, monsters get glasses or contacts for them to see better (except for the huntsman ofc)
Huntsman gets those things elderly people have for better hearing
Hearing aid
with the new cosmetics i thought the remains from the monsters you kill would be cosmetics. like the glowing eyes the headman drops. if you kill 100 headmean you would get glowing eyes.
He can detect the semibots breathing
can semibots even breathe
Repo updates should be federal holidays
Do we know what the reason to heal cosmetic crates are? Perhaps a crate with low hp will yield less coins, or just that you can heal it to ensure it doesn’t break before you can sell it, but it doesn’t matter what health it’s on when sold
the second option I bet
we don't know for sure yet
maybe both
the first option by itself would be weird cause you could just carelessly take the box and then heal it
if you can afford health
at first i thought that making them breakable was a weird move but then i realized why they did it
i imagine lower health boxes give less coins
:)
The full hp cosmetic box gave 1 coin in the devlog
I need to ask, in the devlog the box only gave one token, right? Pontus had 2 but maybe for testing
wait you can heal cosmetic boxes?
BROTHER
god damn im stupid as fuck
He was given one coin from that box yes
okay okay
i thought it gave 2
unless the animation doesn't show previous tokens
The taxman animation should show u
I feel like the whole coin system might be a little convoluted
should show the previous tokens?
how so?
I meant it shows one box per token
okay
IM NOT SMART OKAY
THIS GUY STINKSSS
yeah it only gave one, my b
i dont care for cosmetics so breaking them does not mean anything to me
Self destruct this instant!
and he wonders why no one wants to play with him 🥀
Just cures, If you have two of the same thing like you got two left wizard arm. will the duplicate change to the value of the Rank or not?
you will find out
^
I was enlightened
what if the size of the box is the amount of tokens, not the rarity
it could go either way
probably it's the size for the rarity
What?
he means rarity determines the size of the box
@green jolt #repo_content message
each rarity has an assigned boz size
Looky
In my defence its really funny when i join a vc and 3 seperate people start screaming NO GET OUT
It was in an old devlog
is it from the first time we've seen the boxes?
Lul
no fucking way that no one has sent it
can this be considered assault legally
we need baby semibot sticker
okay thanks, size for rarity
so why did pontus have 2 coins?
Off camera mining

to get to the other side
what a great update
I can't wait
this prov the biggest update ever
