[inner escarp]

edd ok this week?

[still geode]

exploder infestation and shield disruption + volatile guts are both pretty annoying

but overall i didn't find it to be that hard

just need to be careful at all times in stage 1 and 2

[wild sapphire]

escort

[still geode]

the regular dd is extremely easy this week imo

there is an enormous excess of nitra

[eager flame]

1k+ total nitra on the entire dd

[wild sapphire]

i did edd with some randoms i found on a mission and we did well

we ofc got downed sometimes but we did well

[west bane]

I tried the edd, for the first dreadnought we burned through 2 supply pods and barely killed the thing. For the second we popped the cocoon early without clearing the room first, I died to a spitballer and the last guy got leeched.

[coral pond]

Needing 2 resupplies for the twins is almost certainly poor builds

[west bane]

Well, after we failed the host put us on a haz 3 mission so I think he'd never tried an edd

And I wasn't my main dwarf bc there was already a gunner

[patent saddle]

Yeah, the first stage of this edd was really stressful if you ask me

[grim wadi]

i only find exploders stressful if they catch me in a lil hole i dug while i was getting minerals or something, otherwise you can just listen for them triggering near you and casually walk away, even when theyre chasing me while im wandering i just walk through them without much thought, theyre kinda harmless if you know how know the timing

tho mid fight with other things are another time they can surprise you

[coral pond]

Coca cola espuma 'sploder mod is the best jumpscare ever

[still geode]

get a mod that replaces exploder sound with metal pipe falling 👍

never get blown up again

[pliant yoke]

Is there any on mod.io?

[hybrid grail]

theres one for axes but not exploder sounds

theres some other exploder ones on there though

[coral pond]

I need to find this

[manic pivot]

_ _
ATTENTION MINERS!
Planet scanning is still in progress, 12 hours left until new Deep Dives!
_ _

[dark dock]

I was doing the normal deep dive while using Mission Content Randomizer mod which made it so I had to collect 24 Eggs and 210 Hollomite, but I couldn't find ANY holomite... 🥲

[wraith shard]

Imagine popping all those eggs at once

[kindred coyote]

how bad is the shield disruption

i wanna do the edd but shield disruption is making me ehhh

nvm guess ill find out

[halcyon ruin]

holy crap got my ass kicked in the elite deep dive with randos

i am not well accustomed to elite lol

guess its what i get for trying to do an elite with only a few days of playing after a long break while never having been that experienced

Engineer op for kill count though lmao

[wraith shard]

is the morkite pump placement random even in dds or no

[grim wadi]

nope

[wraith shard]

damn location is ass

and terrain is too

we breezed through 1 and 2 but got smacked in 3

[grim wadi]

where the platform lands seems to have some random too it, but not much, saw 3 placements the same but 1 different etc

[halcyon ruin]

Platform location is funny af

[wraith shard]

yeah that didn't help either lol

all p bad

[grim wadi]

yeah the second time we had to do the edd for the platform higher up i said fuck that and made a huge ramp for us to go up and down, and primarily fight on the bottom area

[kindred coyote]

i regret edding

i dont think ive ever gotten as unlucky as i was

i even died while INSDIE THE DROP POD

like yk the spitballer on the second stage right in front of the drop pod

we drop in i dont even move first shot i just die immediately

???

[grim wadi]

oh ya that guy

[devout willow]

I think I got pretty lucky on the edd

Solo with big Bertha gunner

Did it first try

Which is good because I wasn’t gonna try again

[tulip idol]

Have 28 s passed?

It lasts like 28 s from the moment you can move

[arctic plover]

How hard are these deep dives solo?

[runic relic]

Depends if you need to get carried, id say usually easier

[mortal fjord]

yeah me and my team just sat in the droppod shooting bugs until we could actually leave

stage 3 gen was wack but we just had our engie platform it to hell and back

[kindred coyote]

nah we literally dropped in and the moment i could move i died

[kindred coyote]

yeah thats what i was going to do

(it clearly did not work)

my scout kinda just ran out and died idk what happened to driller but i was stuck dead in drop pod for a bit till they could kill all the bugs

[mortal fjord]

in my first EDD attempt I ran out to get away from the bugs, drilled dirt, and fell 20000000000000 feet

[kindred coyote]

lol rip

[mortal fjord]

why did the devs allow dirt there man it's just mean :((((

and the double leech down there too man

[arctic plover]

I can hold my own kinda in haz 4

But 5 is where I start to struggle

[civic zinc]

when is the deep dive dropping

[warped veldt]

6

[arctic plover]

Doing the EDD with randoms rn

This shit fun ngl

[unkempt dew]

whats public opinion on the DD

[devout willow]

Pretty easy

[arctic plover]

Died to the last stage of EDD :c

Haz 5.5 hits different

I hate it

[sinful steppe]

four hours

aaaaaaaaa

[unkempt dew]

seems like it so far

going in blind

[ember trellis]

im bit of a greenbeard with DD's, is there any haz diff with DD and EDD?

[unkempt dew]

ye

DD: 3.5 -> 4 -> 4.5

EDD: 4.5 -> 5 -> 5.5

[ember trellis]

dam ok

[unkempt dew]

wait no

[hushed sequoia]

dd is just 3 -> 3.5 -> 3.5

[unkempt dew]

deep dives start at 3

and stay at 3.5 yeah

[ember trellis]

i ran solo dd with scout

[unkempt dew]

dds never raise above 4. EDDs are always above 4

[ember trellis]

it was not fun

[unkempt dew]

damn final dd stage is a salvage

[ember trellis]

i hated the escort stage 2

because i was playing scout, lucky i had special powder on the boomstick

but salvage was easy for the most part

i got to bunker somehow

[earnest fox]

i had like 700 nitra when i played it dont worry theres way too much of it in the caves

[unkempt dew]

yeah im loaded

resupped only once

on second stage

doing it solo so swarms are like, totally fine

[earnest fox]

solo is the real way

u go when u want to go

[unkempt dew]

sitting at 526 nitra

was worried cause im driller

mactera plague was a concern, and then a grand total of like

25 mactera showed up

lol

[earnest fox]

driller easily deletes those with flamethrower

[unkempt dew]

ye

I had pump though

anyways ggs

easy dd

homebrew powder for g2k

rip lol

[ember trellis]

i got special powder core matrix from an assignemtn lmfao

im going to be a happy scout

[pliant yoke]

It's not a bad OC, mind you

[velvet raptor]

what’s best scout weapon?

wrong channel

[fringe crater]

M1000 imo

[ember trellis]

i prefer gk2

[old jetty]

Even in a Deep Dive, I always brind Doretta back

[dark dock]

It took us 30min to collect all those eggs, a hoarde every 2-3 eggs. Then we realized there was no hollomite, so the deepdive was stuck and we had to leave

[unkempt dew]

eh

average 10% boost

[pliant yoke]

Maybe it’s a 10% average boost, but unlike BoM it’s not only against ailed targets, and unlike AISE, it can benefit from targets being Cryo’d without relying on WS damage

It’s a decent trade off, although realistically I do not yet know how much of a difference in killing certain bugs that damage spread can make

I’ll say this much: I’d rather use Homebrew on GK2 than spec into Fire Rate OCs and end up with more RoF than I feel comfortable with

Because comparing it to BoM and AISE is probably a little unfair for Homebrew in general

[hushed sequoia]

it's a filler oc

[unkempt dew]

id rather have a consistent damage threshold

[hushed sequoia]

not noticeable enough like bulldog to meaningfully affect the gun

plus it's auto fire and low damage (comparatively)

[unkempt dew]

AISE gives both insane accuracy and bonus weakpoint damage

so you hit more shots, and have excellent control over how many shots are needed per grunt

and also happen to do pretty well against single targets with weakpoints

idk, powder seems like garbage on the g2k

[still geode]

no thanks ill just mine gold instead 👍

[unkempt dew]

ty

[sinful steppe]

9 mins

[dusty sigil]

*69 mins

[unkempt dew]

and an hour, I believe

lol

[sinful steppe]

pain

[unkempt dew]

do something productive

[sinful steppe]

alright

[manic pivot]

_ _
ATTENTION MINERS!
New Deep Dives will be available in one hour!
_ _

[unkempt dew]

thank you MC very cool

[solar mica]

Is it a good idea to run an autocannon gunner that focuses more on direct damage instead of AoE? Im about to deep dive for the first time

[unkempt dew]

depends

whats the build

OCs?

[sly kettle]

Soon™

[unkempt dew]

that kind of thing

[solar mica]

No OC's yet

[unkempt dew]

id say use leadstorm for this dd

esp if its your first

[solar mica]

Ohh aight gotcha

[dusky mauve]

i think id run the minigun if you have no overclocks that or the hurricane

[slate river]

Whats in the DD this week?

[coarse wharf]

not yet

[manic pivot]

_ _
ATTENTION MINERS!
New Deep Dives are now available!

[sly kettle]

Good luck, everyone

[round mountain]

[zenith ember]

The gates have opened

[pliant yoke]

Cool, a mixed bag of challenges inbound

EDD is looking very interesting in that regard

And quite fortunate it is that Escort Duty is the map with Low O2, since everyone will be hugging Doretta every now and again for oxygen

[worthy bolt]

DORETTA!
ples give oxygen

t h a n k

seriously

why low o2

[still geode]

2 dreads exploder infestation
blegh

[eager flame]

Thats what happens when you feed the

[worthy bolt]

hey its haz 3.5

its a free deep dive

[still geode]

thats haz5

hate em exploder infestations

[eager flame]

Uhh... the one with the dreads is the normal deep dive

[still geode]

oh

usually people post edd below dd

yuck low o2 escor ton haz5 💀

[slate river]

Dreadnought bugged mid DD

[still geode]

can we just have low o2 refinery like the other times instead

[zenith ember]

escort is chill af

until the driller thought it was a good idea to c4 3 of us

mfer

[slate river]

Escort over refinery

[still geode]

ive never had issues iwth low o2 refinery

just put a mediocre amount of effort into where u put ur resupplies and its ez

[slate river]

I just hate long distance refinery

[zenith ember]

dotty made the o2 warning kinda feel like a normal escort mission tbh

[pliant yoke]

Escort with Low O2 is just as fun as refinery on said mutator

[woeful niche]

i don’t really notice low o2 on escort at all

[civic zinc]

im taking explosive loki with hyper prop

what do you guys think

for edd

[pliant yoke]

It’s probably fine

[civic zinc]

maybe i should take something more cc for secondary?

[languid jay]

Shield disruption, fml.

[civic zinc]

i feel the last round is gonna be brutal

[pliant yoke]

You can take Breach Cutter, if you are worried about packed big boy groups, but you will suffer against Oppressors

And Hyperprop deletes singular big bugs already, on demand

Killing something can be a bit like crowd control

[civic zinc]

i was gonna take shard for the fire

since its glacial

[blissful elk]

EDD this week looks easy

[little hazel]

rip i just dc'd during stage 2 edd

[blissful elk]

The low O2 is on escort duty so there's little worry with oxygen with Dotty

[blissful elk]

Oof

[pliant yoke]

It’s a comfortable level of challenge

[coarse wharf]

sigh...

finished stage 2 of EDD, multiplayer session ended

when are the devs going to fix this shit

[eager flame]

Season 5

[coarse wharf]

from what older players have said, GSG seems to have a nasty habit of adding more netcode issues every season

really hope they fix this shit

[eager flame]

Funny thing is that it only happens on EDDs

Atleast for me

[manic horizon]

Are Lok 1 with explosive chemical rounds and green ammo breach cutter a good pair?

[pliant yoke]

I mean, sure. It’s a little too much lean into AoE for my liking, but it probably can work

Again - Oppressors will likely give you trouble, but not much else

[manic horizon]

And against dreadnoughts ? I mean engineer builds

[pliant yoke]

… I suppose Menaces might also be difficult to kill

[still geode]

if you run exec lok1 with breach cutter you can handle anything tbh

[pliant yoke]

Do you have any other Loki OC than ECR?

[manic horizon]

Yep,5 of 6

[vagrant acorn]

why does normal deep dive have a cave that is not connected to main one?

[manic horizon]

Or every one of them

[pliant yoke]

Refer to Ajfish’s comment then

BC with LWC or SPC, or Inferno and Loki with The Exec are all very strong options for a generalist build

[manic horizon]

Can you tell the numbers,please?

[pliant yoke]

Which numbers exactly?

[manic horizon]

For exec

[pliant yoke]

Of OCs? But I only remember the names

[manic horizon]

Ok

[pliant yoke]

Unless you mean mods?

[still geode]

11112 is the usual exec build, but t1b, t2c, and t3c are valid picks too depending on preference

[manic horizon]

Yep,all tiers

I've got gunner gold promotion,so I am engineer now

[pliant yoke]

Refer to this for Exec Loki mod spec

As for BC…

21122/3 works for me

[nimble prism]

I just did my first sub 45 deep dive, but didn't get the achievement

[still geode]

did u havemods

[nimble prism]

yea

but only visual

All of my other achievements tracked without a problem

Or do you need absolutely zero mods?

[zenith ember]

nah approved ones are fine

[nimble prism]

I had like a 43 minute time

Now i gotta try again oof

[civic zinc]

super easy edd lol

[coarse wharf]

sigh

failed EDD stage 2 on my second run

greenbeard scout and engi with me as the Gunner

[civic zinc]

yeah stage 2 felt hardest

honestly just go solo if you cant find good teammates

[coarse wharf]

wouldn't have this problem if this piece of shit game didn't disconnect my whole team on my first run

goddamn it.

wasted so much time

[dusk flower]

🙂

[heady shard]

Ищу тимейта, я вчера игру скачал

[zenith ember]

you got that issue too? my team all got disconnected on the 3rd stage

[dim hare]

what's this week's dd & edd?

[leaden cypress]

check last pin

[dim hare]

nvm I found it lol

[dim hare]

thanks m8

[leaden cypress]

np

[coarse wharf]

yep.

it really pisses me off

not the first time it happened either

[zenith ember]

did you try to solo finish? or did it happen at stage 1/2

[tiny portal]

its super easy when it doesnt say multiplayer session ended when going to the final stage

We were super good teh whole way

Then it jus kicked us before the final one

[coarse wharf]

I wasn't host

@zenith ember

[zenith ember]

ah rip

ayy a 3rd person getting that issue

[round mountain]

Yeah, it would be really nice QOL update to get host migration as a thing

[civic zinc]

yeah i got that too but i just rejoined and it was fine

[red jasper]

There is your issue

[coarse wharf]

not a good defense for the game

it shouldn't happen this consistently

nice

IT HAPPENED AGAIN.

[zenith ember]

that 1 cosmetic prob isnt worth the time, im getting the suspicion that the 3rd stage has some weird issue

[flat forge]

whats the difference between deep dives and regullar missions?

[coarse wharf]

the re-connect prompt actually worked this time

[flat forge]

i just unlocked them

[smoky steeple]

Im home in a bit then iö write yo back or somone else dos it

[grim wadi]

weird how people are having connection issues just as new deep dives come out, maybe theres just more people around to report it tho hrm

[proper quail]

I only have cosmetics left 😔

[grim wadi]

also, booooooo shield disruption <#deep-dive-discussion message>

[arctic plover]

Deep dives are three missions back to back, with shared resources and health.

Each one has two primary objectives that must be completed and can have mutators like regular missions

[proper quail]

If you play the edd this week find some greybeards to carry you bc that last stage haz5.5 shield disruption point extraction is gonna be brutal

[arctic plover]

They have difficulty scaling depending on the deep dive:

Normal Deep Dive is - Haz 3, Haz 3.5, Haz 3.5

Elite Deep Dive is - Haz 4.5, Haz 5, Haz 5.5

You can’t find regional resources in deep dives, and I believe events can’t happen either.

Each stage you complete on the deep dive gives you a matrix core, this goes for both dd and edd.

First is a blank, second is a weapon overclock, and third is a cosmetic

[tiny portal]

We were with 3, I saw another guy disconnect just before me so I think the host dc'ed

[flat forge]

thanks

[civic zinc]

It was actually pretty easy

I think the second part was harder

[flat forge]

holy this is crazy

[arctic plover]

For point extractions like that you just gotta just speedrun.

Don’t stay for too long or it will become unplayable as the scaling swarms will just overwhelm you

[civic zinc]

The spawn is really good as long as you have engi scout

[flat forge]

ok thanks

[arctic plover]

Id say be out of there in 15 minutes or less

[proper quail]

I feel like After 15 is when the unannounced swarms really ramp up, it becomes significantly more difficult to actually finish the objective

[arctic plover]

Yeah

You want to get your aquarks and leave as soon as possible

Bring a scout

Or a gunner, probably a gunner too

[smoky steeple]

Bring yellow scout to

[arctic plover]

And red scout

[smoky steeple]

Tru

[arctic plover]

Actually just bring everyone

Everyone is welcome

[smoky steeple]

Yea or do red scout with rj 250 and yellow scout for the swarmes

[arctic plover]

The four classes of DRG:

[proper quail]

Rj250 is so fun i started using it and i cant go back now

[arctic plover]

Blue scout, yellow scout, red scout, and Gunner.

[smoky steeple]

Same

[zenith ember]

The red scout with too much firepower for 1 person

[smoky steeple]

You forgot the psyco and green scout

[arctic plover]

Gunner’s zipline sucks

There is no green scout

[smoky steeple]

Ok but the psyco exsists

[arctic plover]

True

[random meteor]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2968438257 does anyone have any experience with this guide and how has it caused any issues?

[smoky steeple]

Wait wat do you mean how it has coused any issues

[random meteor]

like, any noticable missing texture problems or interactibility problems etc

[burnt shuttle]

in a deep dive and i cant fidn the last aquarq 😭

[arctic plover]

Run

They’re coming

[smoky steeple]

No I have no experience with this guide

[smoky steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/littlemoefades-drake-staring-tiktok-theyre-coming-gif-23822985

Run very fast and seek it

[dusty sigil]

There is another cave that isn't connected to the main one for some reason. You can see it on the map and will have to dig to it.

[burnt shuttle]

yeah i just found ouit 😭

[dim hare]

uugh looks like edd stage 3 crashes alot

[desert yew]

last stage elite diving crashing ;-;

3rd time

[candid bobcat]

i love stage 3 disconnect

[grim wadi]

😓

[zenith ember]

oof

[grim wadi]

hopefully the devs find a way to fix or maybe just reroll it? not sure what to do about that other than poke them

from reddit it sounds like the host is fine, but all clients lose connection as soon as stage 3 loads, not sure how successful the reconnects are, but my host is sitting next to me so we might try it still and ill try to reconnect if it happens, give the other guys a heads up to reconnect if it happens

[zenith ember]

yeah thats what happened to my room, but nobody attempted to reconnect

[grim wadi]

sadge

[burnt shuttle]

happened to my room

everyone quickly reconnected thankfully

[sinful tide]

What's this weeks deep dive?

[dim hare]

this

[sinful tide]

Thanks

[dim hare]

idk why it ain't pinned

[coral pond]

it is pinned

[sinful tide]

Dont think ill do it

I despise escort

[zenith ember]

why not? edd is pretty easy this time except for the 3rd stage dc issue

[sinful tide]

.

[zenith ember]

fair

[serene fjord]

Yikes, this has to be the easiest EDD since I started playing, didn't even drop below 100hp at any point as solo Engineer

400 Nitra going into stage 3, only needed a single resupply for it as well

[digital obsidian]

Got a question I am currently on the last stage of this week’s deep dive but I can’t find the last aquarqs anyone knows where it is?

[dusky mauve]

Theres a cave you have to dig into

Its not behind a dirt wall check the scanner

Bricked map generation

[digital obsidian]

Ah okay thanks a lot

[zenith ember]

2 long caves that are quite well hidden, 1 has 3 and the other 2(beside bb)

[clever fern]

is anyone having problems with getting disconnected on stage 3?

[zenith ember]

Yes

Possible to reconnect back though

[clever fern]

I ran it twice and got disconnected both times, I couldn't find the host again since it was public 😦

in the end I just did it alone though

[zenith ember]

As of now it seems consistent enough, other have also reported immediate disconnection when trying to load stage 3

[digital obsidian]

Found it thanks a lot would have never noticed it 😅

[flint vector]

Are the aquarq positions the same on everyones deep dive stage 3

I have found 6/7 and I can't find the last one it's been an hour on the last stage

[serene fjord]

Yes, and look for hidden caves with map scanner to find the last ones @flint vector

[vagrant acorn]

There’s an isolated cave behind the place where drop pod lands

[flint vector]

Hol up lemme check real quick

[vagrant acorn]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/945794222898966548/1103655121520435220/146.png

Omg

Thank you I'm finally free

Mission time 1 hour 12 minutes 39 seconds

The mission that makes you old

@vagrant acorn @serene fjord I could kiss ya both

[smoky steeple]

Do it

[grim wadi]

gotta go fast 🌬️ 🦔

[lofty shore]

2nd time it kicked it after 2nd mission in elite deep dive any ideas why?

says either multiplayer session ended or connection lost :(

[desert yew]

everyone have this issues, but u can reconnect

[lofty shore]

you cant if it kickcs everyone out

[grim wadi]

host shouldnt crash out apparently

[lofty shore]

neither should anyone 🤣

should it be fixed in a couple days i dont wanna play it again if im just gonna lose the progress

it didnt happen in the normal dive tho

just elite and after 2nd mission

[tiny portal]

Same happened to me on transition stage 2 to stage 3

[loud bane]

i've lost connection 2 times already on third stage

inbetween i mean

[lofty shore]

the leader managed to friend invite me and we finished it barely

[loud bane]

i dont think it is an accident

[lofty shore]

good

[loud bane]

something is wrong

[lofty shore]

https://tenor.com/view/coincidence-i-think-not-coincidence-i-think-not-the-incredibles-gif-5096707

[royal magnet]

I've lost connection twice as well at the same point just before entering the 3rd stage

[gusty grotto]

I was host and all my teammates lost connection

clearly something wrong with the EDD if everyone is getting the exact same thing

[lofty shore]

[formal tree]

when the info goes 'black box', is that just an uplink, or does that mean the full uplink-fuelcell-hangout cycle?

[lime zealot]

Just the uplink.

[formal tree]

im so bad at the uplinks when im solo.. do you have tips?

[low plover]

I want to go as Gunner on EDD and I wonder what to take with
because if Elite Threat and Shield Disruption I thought about Carpet Bomber with fear factor
but this is also in Glacial Strata, so I thought about Burning Hell minigun. With Hellish Fire Coilgun or neurotoxin Bulldog

[indigo remnant]

what's this week's deep dive? you can reply the message

[low plover]

better, you have it pinned, buddy

[indigo remnant]

thanks, i don't come here often so i did not know

[low plover]

np

would be cool to share screenshots here with builds

[indigo remnant]

yeah
as for class recommendation? just doing normal

[copper horizon]

oh cool, knowledge of mutators and missions in advance
almost like in nuclear throne discord :)

low o2 and shield disrupt huh :(

[copper horizon]

isnt normal just haz 3-3.5? literally anything can prob do it easily

[low plover]

ye, unless you go with vampire driller, going there would be trouble
shield disruption on haz 5.5 on Point Extraction? P A I N 💀

[indigo remnant]

3, 3.5(?), 4

[grim wadi]

thats the plan :D

[copper horizon]

3, 3.5, 3.5

[low plover]

and Im so clumsy as Driller I dont even think about going there this class

[indigo remnant]

hm
i am doing solo too

[copper horizon]

well, if you can do solo haz4 mission, solo normal dive should be fine

[indigo remnant]

i have soloed a few haz 4 missions, only for haz 5 assignment though

[copper horizon]

well give it a try, then. You lose nothing anyway (aside some time - solo runs seem to be slower than group)

[indigo remnant]

alright
i'll play scout then

[copper horizon]

just have ability to kill dreads on stage 2

[indigo remnant]

no problem
i'll be off then, wish me luck

[low plover]

I'd like to have something in between normal Deep Dive and Elite Deep Dive
3>3.5>3.5 and 4.5>5>5.5 is a big difference. Or you smash one, or you get smashed one

[copper horizon]

heard scout is good at single target elimination, but not sure if he can hit dreads in the back reliably when solo

[low plover]

try Zhukovs

[indigo remnant]

i got a shock-based build with zhukovs, so it'll be fine

[twilit birch]

U can try ifgs with trifork volley

Magnetic shafts T5 is a must

[abstract bane]

Anyone getting dcd whenever they get to last stage of edd?

[little hazel]

2nd and 3rd

[steel python]

Well, well, well, looks it's the usual suspects for this week's EDD

Elites, low 02, and shield disruption

And their buddies escort duty and point extraction

[abstract bane]

I got dcd twice at the start of 3rd stage, right when loading is done. It's very specific, hbu?

[lone monolith]

i thought my whole team just ditched me LMFAO

[little hazel]

first was loading into the 2nd stage and i couldn't rejoin. 2nd time was loading into the 3rd stage, happened to all of us but host and were lucky enough that all of us could rejoin

[fluid anchor]

lf 2 more for car pool ach hit me up if interested

[abstract bane]

Did the prompt to rejoin show up for ya?

[little hazel]

yep right away

[abstract bane]

Dang mine did not for either 😕 well thanks man r&s

[vagrant acorn]

Shock builds do not work on elimination because dreadnoughts can’t get electrocuted status effect

They are still powerful though

[vagrant acorn]

Scout is great at solo eliminations because he has grappling hook that allows them to quickly change position and hit the weak points

Also majority of his guns are great at single target damage

[old widget]

yeah dreads are unaffected by most sources of electrocute (like zhuks) but there are exceptions, like taser bolts, which are stupid powerful against dreads

[opaque hedge]

Pp

[eternal lava]

scout is the best for solo elimination, unless you have the right sludge pump or cryo build

the maneuverability is too good

[little hazel]

holup the crossbow can be useful?

[old widget]

taser bolts seriously bully dreads

take BoM on GK2 and IFGs, pop two taser bolts into dread to create arc through its body, toss IFG (which is easy to land on target because taser slows it so bad) and go wild

[shut harness]

Exactly the same thing happened to me. Had a good team going too 😦 No rejoin option

[abstract bane]

Same! Well mostly, i'm 3/3 for DCs but last one I was able to rejoin, but the host died. Strange occurence

[shut harness]

Apparently if you force quit the game and re-open it you should get an option to rejoin. I'll try that next time.

[abstract bane]

Neat tech lol, thanks for letting me know! Good luck on getting in and finishing your EDD, friend

[patent cape]

yeah good tip

[shut harness]

Think I'm just going to give up on this week 😓 . It's 1 cosmetic and EDDs are long

[grim wadi]

EDD was super easy, we had to add our 4th to friend list so they could rejoin for the predicted crash/disconnect as stage 3 starts

didnt even need that extra unconnected cave in stage 3, was enough quarks in main area for us

[azure dune]

Phero Bolts are the most busted thing in the game

[raven sky]

drop pod landed pretty much in the ceiling on stage 2 edd and my team, which was cruising, wiped and disbanded... not easy getting good rando team on ps....

[grim wadi]

dang, landed normally for us

actually have evidence of it via this silly ass rolly boi https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/529674786620571658/1103797674928521266/Deep_Rock_Galactic_replay_2023.05.04-20.31_54_60.mp4

[solemn hollow]

maybe the real treasure was the bosco we made along the way

[bitter olive]

so real

[dreamy rampart]

big thanks!

[left imp]

Elite deep dive is currently bugged and dropping all party members while loading third stage

[ancient cove]

Hey guys, is there a problem with EDD this week?
Second game, I host and all players lost connection on the third stage, while loading

[grim wadi]

yes

[ancient cove]

damn

[grim wadi]

all they can do is hope to be able to reconnect

[ancient cove]

Looks like most people don't know how

[grim wadi]

either that or they strait up cant, it seems inconsistent unless you are stream friends maybe

[ancient cove]

one player reconnected

I asked him, he said he lost the connection and reconnected

[restive patrol]

just did elite dive twice

crashed again on loading stage 3

[ancient cove]

You crashed or lost the connection?

[restive patrol]

lost connection

"Lost connection to server" something like that

how do u report bugs again

[grim wadi]

for me, as the host was beside me, i lost connection, it asked me to reconnect, it didnt work it dropped me to the space rig, i think rejoined via steam friends list and that worked, i wonder if others could rejoin via recent players tab, or maaaaaybe the EDD join list? not sure

[restive patrol]

jira bug reporter i think

[grim wadi]

or https://drg.pleasefix.gg/projects/DEEP-ROCK-GALACTIC/ maybe

[restive patrol]

cool thanks

quite frustrating

escorting doretta on low oxygen twice isnt the most fun

[restive patrol]

thanks i submitted

[grim wadi]

nice nice, ive also contributed

dunno how fast they jump on things via this method, but couldnt hurt

[frosty jacinth]

man i havent visited this discord in months.

i want a new season already

[grim wadi]

need muh horror cave season nowwww

[frosty jacinth]

ooooo yessss

thought theyt would annoucnce it during there anniversary stream but nopoe

[grim wadi]

still getting the 2 weekly teasers, i cant remember how many teasers we got before they finally dropped season 3

[frosty jacinth]

how big is this dev team?

[grim wadi]

pretty small, a dozen maybe?
edit: 32 according to google, a lot probably non devs

[restive patrol]

i saw 14 devs online once

[frosty jacinth]

oooooooo that explains a lot then

[fast stratus]

Sidenote but I honestly find escort to be one of the tamer missions for low O2 since the entire point of it is to stay close to Doretta. Which has oxy canisters

[restive patrol]

fair point

i love to predrill for the eggs

[serene fjord]

I legit didn't notice it was low o2 until I reached the heartstone and started placing engi platforms

So yeah, not really a troublesome combination

[left imp]

Is there a secret to it? Only pops up sometimes for me

[restive patrol]

the pop up is random yes

on the two edds, i was prompted w/ the pop up on the first time after d/c'ing

not the 2nd time

[candid edge]

Is anyone getting booted on the third stage on the edd?

[restive patrol]

https://drg.pleasefix.gg/projects/DEEP-ROCK-GALACTIC/issues/DRG-745

yes

[raven sky]

i guess the third stage boot is happening on playstation too, how do you rejoin?

[coral pond]

i've heard sending invites prior to the deep dive can let people rejoin on playstation, not sure how well that works though

[fathom patrol]

It’s what I used to help my friends I was running the EDD with rejoin on stage 3. They used the prior invite to jump back in.

Though not really all that helpful in random teams

[hazy wraith]

ya we just rejoined via adding as steam friends and sending invite. Gotta have host stay alive in droppod

[oak pecan]

I feel really bad because I was in a EDD and I disconnected right after the second mission ended leaving my team high and dry

Atleast I finally got ECR though

[shut viper]

did you guys see that really weird aqaurq cave generation on the normal DD on the last mission

nice

I've never seen part of a cave that was seperated and isolated in an aquarq mission before

[zenith ember]

Its uncommon, but does happen more times than you think

[shut viper]

weird

[river arch]

yeah this one was crazy

[zenith ember]

On site refining also likes to have a weird ass isolated pump

[shut viper]

imagine not having a driller for that lol

[zenith ember]

Like this room specially for that 1 pump

[river arch]

so far the pumps were always connected by a cave, though those were hard to find sometimes

[fickle wyvern]

is the disconnect on 3rd stage still happening?

[river arch]

this deep dive was the first time in 270 hours i had a completely disconnected cave needed for the mission objective

[zenith ember]

I thought it was connected but blocked by salt crystals?

[river arch]

pretty sure it was completely secluded

[zenith ember]

Hmm i see

[marble mango]

yup I called it evil cave generation during my run

[zenith ember]

Was in the other isolated cave when my team did it

[dire venture]

is that in the elite dive or the regular one?

[river arch]

regular

[dire venture]

oooh, dang

[river arch]

it's in the third stage, right behind where the drop pod lands at the start

[placid musk]

shield disruption PE

oh god I'm scared

[mortal fjord]

this EDD was easier than last week

[desert lynx]

yeah this week's edd is nice

[snow stream]

Yes it is

[desert lynx]

I love point extract on dds

[desert lynx]

which stage?

haven't finished it since I was farming the huuli

[snow stream]

I completed stage 3 solo but all the Aquarqs were in the same room

Didn't have to drill into any isolated rooms to find them

[desert lynx]

yeah the aquarqs are good

morkite was behind a few pillars

[river arch]

regular deep dive, stage 3

[mortal fjord]

I got the disconnect in my EDD

loading into stage 3

[undone hedge]

Same happened both times I got there

[fathom agate]

You just need to rejoin via steam link or get a successful relog if the game registers the disconnect properly

On the EDD for me it happened to all three client players and we just got lucky and were able to immediately rejoin

[placid steeple]

Yo where's the sneaky aquaq on regular deep dive

There's an isolated cave in the middle of fucking nowhere

[thorn jewel]

they said its somewhere behind a disconnected cave, use your map

I haven't done this weeks

[placid steeple]

right behind the drop pod spawn

your entry drop pod

[thorn jewel]

that sounds hilarious

[placid steeple]

this is dumb

where do i share images

[restive patrol]

i would wager gallery

[tacit jungle]

pretty chill EDD other than reconnect shenanigans

[open ledge]

Yeah, wasn’t very hard

[prisma shale]

edd stage 3 still bugged?

[halcyon edge]

j

[ember trellis]

What missions are in stan DD?

(For this week)

[fluid aurora]

all 3 non-host players including me DCed, i was the only one that rejoined successfully apparently which sucked

[vocal saddle]

yea i think if you are steam friends you can just rejoin easily

[fluid aurora]

i just right clicked on the profile and joined game through that

i couldn't rejoin the game normally from the deep dive menu for some reason

i don't think the other 2 guys knew you could rejoin like that so it was just me and the gunner :(

[vocal saddle]

rip

[fluid aurora]

we made it out, i got downed as we were zipping to the drop pod and i told him not to go save me

then i remembered i had IW and we both got out fine lol

[vocal saddle]

IW always clutches

[ember trellis]

Does anyone know the 3 stage mission for DD?

[fluid aurora]

7 aquarqs + black box

which is equivalent to a salvage objective

[vagrant acorn]

It has big isolated cave behind the drop pod landing area

[fluid aurora]

check pins

[restive patrol]

my pleasefixit issue is at least confirmed

🤠

[ember trellis]

This week’s dd is legit a scout build

[restive patrol]

ton of nitra

[unkempt dew]

Oh so losing connection to host at stage 3 is a universal thing?

[flint vector]

This dd and edd caves are really nice

Nice open areas, very doable solo

[placid steeple]

Wait losing connection on EDD?

[fervent rose]

The BB on the second stage of the DD was cruel
I've had 2 groups die there because a bulk spawned
We ended up bunkering on the third stage BB

The group I wiped with the second time around ended up being able to complete the stage 2 BB, but only because the bulk didn't spawn

[flint vector]

I also got a bulk detonator next to dorreta , they are pretty brutal

[fervent rose]

Jesus Christ, I don't even wanna imagine bulks on escort

[pliant yoke]

You don’t have to. They sometimes stumble by.

[fervent rose]

It must be hell on route, because the bulk is faster than dotty, hell on the refuel stop, cause the caves there usually aren't too large, and hell at the heartstone, because you have to make sure the bulk doesn't hit dotty when he dies

[flint vector]

The refuel was fine, plenty of fuel around the first stop

I think it was a 1 stop too

[steel python]

Two things I know is that bulks don't directly target dotty, only dwarves

[flint vector]

I did it yesterday I don't remember wtf I was doing

[placid steeple]

Is it just me or is the 3rd stage DD has an isolated cave

[steel python]

And deep dive escorts are 1 stop only

[flint vector]

It does it's behind the drop pod spawn

I asked about it here yesterday as I couldn't find it

[placid steeple]

Yes i already played it and WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[flint vector]

I spent an hour on that mission alone

Trying to find 1 aquarq

Open the isolated cave, boom 3 of em

[placid steeple]

Lmao you're missing exactly 1

pranked

Our driller was insane to find the cave

[flint vector]

Drg does a little bit of trolling

[fervent rose]

I read about that cave beforehand, and I think either our driller did too or they found it through the terrain scanner

Because he opened it relatively quickly

So I got lucky there

[hard sentinel]

Any one having connection issue on 3rd stage EDD? My bud got disconnected right after loading into 3rd stage. This happened twice in a row already. We are on playstation.

[pliant yoke]

It is a known issue

[hard sentinel]

That's unfortunate. Guess it's a pass this week. Lol

[pliant yoke]

Is there not a possibility for your friend to reconnect after disconnecting?

[hard sentinel]

?! I was under an impression that I can't invite after starting the dive.

[pliant yoke]

I’m not certain how the reconnect system works on PS, although if anyone disconnects from your game on PC, they should get a prompt to reconnect after that (unless it happens only after crashes)?

Either way, you probably can still attempt solo dives if you feel like it, if you care about the cosmetic core

[hard sentinel]

Thanks, will give a a try

[bright coral]

Is it known why is DDE stage 3 causing problems?

[hollow shale]

Yeah rather weird I got kicked loading into 3rd stage

[sour pelican]

I'm on PC, I only get a "Close" button. Maybe closing the game at task manager just after stage 2 can make the game close forcefully and prompt a reconnect after opening the game. Just a thought, I didn't try

[pliant yoke]

That might be a “solution”

[grim wadi]

ohhhhhh not a bad idea!

[rose yacht]

terrain scanner yer best friend.

[lucid frost]

I-

awesome, sanity saved

[tacit jungle]

just walk away, you can fail and retry black box without losing the mission

[fervent rose]

That was our exact plan on the second go around

And then it didn't spawn

[turbid dawn]

can confirm this with several testing been kicked at stage 3 5 times, hosted a game, teammates got kicked on stage 3

[pseudo jewel]

I just found out about it too, took me like 7 minutes to realize that the cave where the last aquarq is is right behind where you spawn at and you need to dig through it LOL

DRG trolling

[placid steeple]

The devil's greatest trick is generating an isolated cave where you didnt think

[pseudo jewel]

I think the worst part is that I actually noticed a cave there but I thought it was linked to another part of a cave so I spend like 3 minutes looking for the entrance to it and then double check it again

8 min mission turned into 18 mins 😭

[scenic jetty]

how does bullet hell oc work with 2 penetration mod?
does it ricochet once on a glyphid and another bullet that passes through with penetration would then ricochet from the ground to another glyphid ?

[coarse wharf]

idk the specifics, but I can point you to LazyMaybe's Season 3 breakdown video (the one with the new grenades)

he did mention something about Bullet Hell

[tulip idol]

It spawns 2 bullets: 1 penetrates, another ricochets off 1 bug.

[scenic jetty]

Does the bullet that penetrates also ricochet ?

[tulip idol]

No.

[north hearth]

i got the EDD disconnect bug but luckily my teammates managed to reconnect

[old siren]

https://tenor.com/view/my-disappointment-is-immeasurable-and-gif-20080022

[patent zenith]

Same

[old siren]

EDD 3rd stage disconnect

[patent zenith]

I’ve heard a lot of people have the same problem

[old siren]

Yep, I even saw a room name about it on the EDD

[patent zenith]

Idk how to reconnect, it didn’t give me an option

[old siren]

Same, there wasn't one for me

[patent zenith]

[old siren]

And given the first two times I died and now this I'm just saying screw it until next week

https://tenor.com/view/lotr-gimli-sad-lord-of-the-rings-emotional-gif-16266452

[patent zenith]

Yeah same
I got the weapon oc, so I’m happy with that

Hopefully they can figure out what was causing the issue and eliminate it in the future

[old siren]

Things have been more buggy with this season at least from what I can remember

[mortal fjord]

I disconnected before anybody else on my team, prompting them to load in and disconnect in the drop pod. But I reconnected just in time to save it. Though I did have to load for a long ass time even after my team got in again and started playing

[dark crown]

What's up with the third EDD stage disconnecting people?

IDC much about the cosmetic overclock, but it's kinda annoying

[desert lynx]

Ricochet on the revolver works weirdly. It spawns a new unique bullet entity that bounces upon being shot, and usually since the initial hit disappears it gives the illusion of a ricocheted bullet. However, blowthrough causes bullets to, well, blow through before despawning, you actually gets two bullets, one that ricochets, and another that blows through. Only one ricochet and blowthrough is spawned per shot, and a ricochet shot does not blowthrough.

Tl, dr: when a blowthrough hits a bug it spawns a bullet that ricochets and the original bullet keeps flying.

[unkempt dew]

Is this the same case with the gun?

Mechanically, not visually

[tropic slate]

hows the edd

[patent zenith]

Stage 1&2 are ok but stage 3 is impossible 😅

[lusty dew]

(mostly because youll almost certainly DC when loading into it)

[desert lynx]

Reckon so, I don’t have ricochet with leadstorm tho so I’ve yet to test it

[tropic slate]

oh is it busted 👀

damn oh well

[unkempt dew]

Aw man wtf

It looks like a fun EDD 5.5 too

Why is it this one that’s bugged

[desert lynx]

Depends on your luck ig
Only half our team dc’d and we were able to reconnect

The driller was an asshole so everyone just left him to die until the drop pod came

[naive rover]

have they addressed the DC issue on the EDD?

[grim wadi]

dont think so

[dark nimbus]

the other 2 i was playing with dc'd on stage 3 and i somehow managed to beat it.

[pulsar jacinth]

Hosted the EDD, all other players DC and didnt come back at stage 3. I tried to solo it but the game started to stutter more and more, eventually getting so jittery it was unplayable. Very strange, never seen that before

[serene fjord]

Might be worth doing the entire EDD solo from the start, both me and my friend did it solo with no stability issues

Only a sample size of 2, but still

[restive patrol]

still not fixed huh?

there sure is no rushing these guys lol

maybe someone will actually notice by Monday

[versed rover]

Just incase anyone else is struggling to find the last aquarq on normal deep dive stage 3, it's a completely secluded cave section not too far from the minehead. It seems I can't post pictures in this chat but it shouldnt be too hard with that description, just use your scanner.

[grim wadi]

ye theres a pic here #deep-dive-discussion message

[patent forge]

Okay, so I'm a drg noob, and I just found out about deep dives

I use gunner only, so how would you guys suggest I tackle the deep dives once I promote my character

[fallow niche]

if solo, use bosco (make sure to take the mining speed upgrade for him) to pretty much mine everything for you and do whatever objectives he's capable of, like building pipelines, while you shoot stuff

otherwise uh, just remember to use your shields since if you have 3-4 still by the time you resupply, you're basically wasting em

[static hornet]

first time I didn't die in an edd

[coral pond]

stage 3 edd disconnect happened as expected. god bless the reconnect popping up. Shame we lost a couple of greenbeards who could've used the reward more

[patent forge]

thanks man, appreciate it

For Rock and Stone!

[solar mica]

If i did a normal DD yesterday and went on another DD again today am i going to get Cores again or nah?

[fierce sparrow]

you can only get rewards once from doing the same week's DD or EDD respectively

[ancient silo]

this is the second time i've gotten kicked from an elite deep dive ):

[coral pond]

are you sure you were kicked and it wasn't just the disconnect on stage 3's loading screen that's affecting everybody

[heavy girder]

reg deep dive r3 is a troll

[jade wind]

yeah there's two Aquarqs in a hidden passage behind the drop pod

I actually got deep for speed with like 20sec left lol

[solar mica]

So if i did a DD again i wont get any rewards? But if i do my first EDD for this week am get rewards?

[dark crown]

You can get gold and XP from multiple runs

But only one OC from each stage

"mods are asleep, time to post spam discord invites"

@hidden venture

[split anchor]

fucking hell I was doing so fine

then boom

an unconnected area on deep dive stage 3 that I did not notice and here I am

no revives, downed

[split anchor]

I died because of that :3

[placid musk]

did any of you guys get their team disconnected on edd stage 3

i got hit and had to quit cause i forgot where the mork was

[fluid aurora]

everyone did

[placid musk]

???

none of my teammates reconnected

omg I had my ass clenched for 15 mins

bro that's such a freaking troll

we would've definitely beat it

[fluid aurora]

for some reason rejoining via the deep dive menu normally doesn't work

you have to right click on the profile and then hit join game that way

[placid musk]

weird...

can they fix it

i can't fint a full team of friends to play with

[fluid aurora]

idk it's been 3 days and it hasnt changed

chances are probably not

[placid musk]

...

darn

[fluid aurora]

the stage 3 is just a cosmetic core after all but it does suck that you can't actually complete it with a full team most of the time

[placid musk]

i want the core man

[fluid aurora]

the game giving me 29489390985943 driller beard cosmetic cores even though i have eclipse trooper for him already

[placid musk]

lol

i want forge mastery

the hunt for special powder continues

[split anchor]

I got special powder but still searching for EM discharge

[visual garnet]

I want to thank the kind folks here who said there was a disconnected tunnel on the last Stage of the DD with 3 Aquarqs.
Thanks to you my team finished the DD in just 35 Minutes and we all got the Deep for Speed achievement. 👍

[split anchor]

damn

[unkempt dew]

so what causes the edd stage 3 crash

[split anchor]

now I feel jealous xwx

[unkempt dew]

is there a way to prevent the crah

or do you just play solo

[placid musk]

i have no idea

[placid musk]

teammates can rejoin

but i dunno how

you could solo it, cave gen's very open

i suck balls at the game and even i lasted 20 mins

[split anchor]

GSG team crashed as well during their stream on that dive

[unkempt dew]

lol

[vale knot]

oh wow last week's edd was bad that I didn't do it, but this week's?

current edd is just even worse

bye matrix cores for the week

[unkempt dew]

idk, first tried it with all bronze stars

just crashed after stage 2

[placid musk]

this week's is ez as shit

cakewalk

caves open af

just the typical drg experience

[placid steeple]

Does EDD still crash at stage 3

[modest wedge]

sounds like its good for my first try

is DD even possible solo?

or is it meant for a team?

[placid steeple]

Uh i guess, you get bosco

[modest wedge]

dd def seems ball breakingly hard

[placid steeple]

Oh damn it stage 2 edd is low oxygen

guess i'll get fart on

[whole locust]

yeah i highly suggest pre drilling through stage 2

sure it takes a long ass time and you’re most likely gonna have to burn through alot of nitra but stages 1 and 2 have plenty of it

[unkempt dew]

it does

just did

[unkempt dew]

idk why you would do that

went into stage 2 with 300 nitra

popped both eggs in the 1st room

then its stage 3

[unkempt dew]

nah, solo play has balanced swarms, but you also get bosco

high utility is an understatement. You can do pacifist runs with bosco, granted thats not advisable

[modest wedge]

ah right mayb not so bad then

[modest wedge]

"not advisable"

[placid steeple]

This week EDD is hell, 2nd stage is so hard

[unkempt dew]

eh

bring fire

[solemn hollow]

bring a gunner for free repairs

[violet gazelle]

i alway get disconnect at last mission of deep dive elite

anyone have solution?

[solemn hollow]

play solo

[ancient cove]

If you're on PC, you can rejoin the host via steam

Spread the method, so others can rejoin too:

[violet gazelle]

cant rrejoin

host disaapear

[solemn hollow]

that only works if you have them added and your game crashed i think

[ancient cove]

On PC, you can open the Deep Drive terminal and find all running games.
Right click on the lobby, Steam will open the Steam Profile of the host.
If hosts profile isn't private, you can press the join button there.

[violet gazelle]

if it happen 1 time so you true

but i get this 3 time

[solemn hollow]

oh

[violet gazelle]

reaaly annoying

[ancient cove]

So have you tried to rejoin the host via steam?

It worked for me so far

[violet gazelle]

i cant see the host in list

[ancient cove]

You should be, unless the mission is over

It will greyed out, like "you can't join"

[violet gazelle]

yes

all are grey

[ancient cove]

It's normal

You still can rejoin that one lobby you were before

[violet gazelle]

hmmm

[ancient cove]

Unless the host closed the game or died alone

and then the mission is over

[violet gazelle]

i will try 1 more time

[violet gazelle]

no

i got disconnect right after complete 2nd mission

[ancient cove]

yes, it's a bug of the current EDD

it happens every time

I played 3 EDD games already, it always happens to all players

[violet gazelle]

ok

[solemn hollow]

not if you play solo guhuhuh

[violet gazelle]

thanks bro

[ancient cove]

If you play again, warn all the players and tell them how to rejoin via steam

I'll repeat the method again:
Open the DD Terminal, find the Host in the list (it doesn't matter that it's grayed out)
Right-Click on the lobby, host's Steam profile will pop up
Unless his profile hides current games or his profile is private, you will see a green "join" button on the screen.
If not, you can still try to add the host as a friend

[violet gazelle]

super helpful

[wraith shard]

Doesn't the game go into closed mode? Automatically gives you bosco. Perhaps this is the reason why people can't connect back.

[ancient cove]

No it doesn't. I tested it already and rejoined a host myself.
You also get Bosco, if you start an open lobby game without other players, players can still join later (in normal missions, not DD)

[wraith shard]

After 170 hours, I'll learn something new, wow, I'll never launch a solo mission again

[ancient cove]

Btw, technically, what Deep Dive "code" does, is saving players into a list, after Deep Dive started. Then later it allows only these players to rejoin

[ancient cove]

Also interesting information: If a player joins, Bosco gets destroyed. If all players leave your lobby, Bosco doesn't respawned.

[wraith shard]

forever alone

[wraith shard]

Bosco does respawn. Just not when you are the only one left and you are already down.

[ancient cove]

Yeah, but it happened to me only once in 400h. People normally don't leave

[ancient cove]

Sure? Maybe they fixed it. I experienced it in Season 2 once, so I can't tell

But I'm 100% sure back then, someone joined, left and then I had to finish the mission aline

[wraith shard]

Well I started playing early 22 so I don't know any better than Bosco does come back. However, if you are down, and you are the only one left (cuz others left or u kicked them), Bosco doesn't come back (soon enough to resuscitate you).

[ancient cove]

Wait, how often do people leave your lobby after joining and then you're alone?

[wraith shard]

considering I've played 750+ missions it's happened a few times at least

sometimes someone leaves because they think you aren't good enough or obsessed enough to memorize all stats on weapon this and OC that and your loadout isn't optimalized or something so when u get downed they don't rescue you but leave... 😭

[ember trellis]

Does anyone know if you get more matrix cores, any kind, in EDD’s rather than DD’s

[still geode]

both the DD and the EDD give a single core, a single weapon overclock, and a single cosmetic overclock

but the rewards are independent, so if you get both, you get two of each

[ancient cove]

welp

I guess you play primary Haz 5?

[wraith shard]

Bro I thought it was just me wtf

[maiden sparrow]

Is there a bug in the EDD this week that drops all players (except host) at the start of Stage 3?

[ancient cove]

yes

[maiden sparrow]

ok, thought i was going mad

[ancient cove]

.

[maiden sparrow]

thanks

Everyone rejoined without issue, just saw it happen in all the EDD video's on youtube and then to myself.

[ancient cove]

👍🏻

[alpine smelt]

My pal dropped at the beginning of EDD3 as well.

The only time my pal hasn't been able to rejoin was late into the dive... like when we were about to fight the Caretaker in a previous EDD.

[ember trellis]

Does anybody know what stage 3 is for EDD this week?

[ember trellis]

I just lost connection to an elite deep dive

Is there anyway i can rejoin?

[ancient cove]

.

[ancient cove]

Opps, I mean this^

@ember trellis

[ember trellis]

We were on xbox tho

We disbanded bc we had things to do

[ancient cove]

It's a bug and it happens every time

[brave thorn]

low o2 and shield disruption on edd :fuckingcrying:

[ancient cove]

It's not that bad

o2 is on doretta

[brave thorn]

thank god im not a niche micro internet celebrity who dedicates themselves to completing the deep dives asap 🙏

[brave thorn]

it's still low o2

and it's still shield disruption

[ancient cove]

😂

[brave thorn]

on haz 5.5

[dire pendant]

Hi guys. Just wanna ask, did you get to 3rd stage of EDD with your team? Or did you get disconnected/ended solo (as host)

[ancient cove]

It's a bug. You always get disconnected

[dire pendant]

Oh. What a pitty

[ancient cove]

If you're on PC. ^

[tropic slate]

so the edd on pc stage 3 drops connection for everyone?

😭

[cloud iris]

wtf just happend to me

[lilac dagger]

you can still rejoin, see #deep-dive-discussion message

[cloud iris]

yeah thank god host accepted my friend req

[lilac dagger]

method saved the run for 3 of us

1 guy didn't accept my invite fast enough so we had to finish xd

[open ledge]

I just got lucky on the second try and we could all rejoin

[dark crown]

Isn’t stage 2 just haz 5? The bugged S3 is 5.5 I believe

[open ledge]

Yes

[brave thorn]

yes I’m just referring to stage 3

[dark crown]

Escort is stage 2

So it's haz 5

and it's not that bad tbh

[open ledge]

Ye, was light if you have some good crowd control

Ntp gunner plus sticky Flames was blessed

[dark crown]

I cant say how bad the last stage was given the disconnect bug happened to me

[open ledge]

It wasn’t bad

[dark crown]

But since I got the weapon Overclock from stage 2 I wont complain

[open ledge]

Nice open fighting areas

[dark crown]

I can get cosmetics any other day of the week if I was that desperate

[open ledge]

The morkite could be tricky to find tho

I just got the final weapon oc

Otherwise cc will carry

[dark crown]

Would have been nice to get the EDD fully complete but Im not going to sweat over a lost cosmetic core

[open ledge]

Here

I think this guy explained how you can reconnect 100%

Of the time

[dark crown]

It was last night so probably not gonna happen 😅

[open ledge]

Fair enough

[ancient cove]

Would be nice if a mod could rephrase is maybe, since I'm not sure about my English and pin it.
So people can reconnect and finish the EDD.

Generally an official announcement would be good, so people know in advance that EDD is bugged this week

Needs better visibility here and on reddit

[untold saddle]

You can also rejoin by opening the steam overlay and going to 'recently played with' and looking for the hosts profile.

It doesn't even need to be the host, just someone in the deep dive IIRC

[pliant moss]

i have a question, do you get more cores if you do the basic and elite deep dive or do you only get the rewards from one

[wraith shard]

it is a one time thing

but you can do normal & elite once and that would give you cores for both, but if you rerun the same mode then you will not get more cores

[pliant moss]

thanks

[mighty hound]

wheres the last aquark on stage 3 dd

ive been walking around cant find it

[royal garden]

the EDD is bugged?

[slender dirge]

Does anyone know how you would rejoin on console?

[hollow shale]

yes

[wraith shard]

i heard theres a hidden chamber near the drop pod with 2

[whole condor]

it didnt work for me

[raw tapir]

anyone know where to post if u want to play deep dive with people?

[burnt sandal]

the LFG channels

[raw tapir]

thx

[ancient cove]

If someone hasn't finished EDD due to disconnect.
I'm hosting EDD right now with guaranty that you can reconnect to me

Hosting on Steam, middle Europe

[rich lichen]

How can you guarantee it?
Ive played EDD three times now as client and Connection lost every time on loading screen to third stage

[ancient cove]

My Steam profile isn't private

[ancient cove]

you can use the method to join me

[rich lichen]

Oh so the host continues but all players crash?

[ancient cove]

they lose the connection for some reason

[rich lichen]

Hm, still got an open slot?

[ancient cove]

Hosts lobby is still open

[rich lichen]

Whats the lobby name

[ancient cove]

"Unlimited dwarfs party! Bugs scale!"

2 places left

1 left

running 8 player mod

[short haven]

Has the stage 3 disconnect for this edd been fixed yet?

[candid yoke]

not yet

[pallid cipher]

came to ask about it, welp guess i'm caught up til that fixes

[ancient cove]

1 place free again

done

game crashed...

[glass tide]

is it a bug that 3rd stage of EDD ppl dc?

[woeful niche]

ye

[scenic jetty]

i had a prompt to reconnect when it said "Multiplayer session ended" and reconnected me back to it

[grim wadi]

congrats youre one of the lucky 10% where that actually works correctly

[real elk]

Did anyone else's game crash on the second DD stage?

[astral glen]

Just about everyone is either disconnecting or crashing at the end of the 2nd stage of the Deep Dives this week.

The only work around that I'm aware of is for the host to provide a "steam://joinlobby" link to the other players so they can re-connect. Discord invites tend to stop working during Deep Dives but the steam://joinlobby invites are pretty reliable.

To get the steam://joinlobby invite link:
Go to your steam profile in a browser, on the right side there's a green Join Game.
Right-click on the Join Game and copy link address.

[real elk]

Damn ok

It was actually the first time the game crashed for me so I was surprised

[grim wadi]

can people ingame copy the link in any way? to help the randos that would join, tho ive done the EDD already but im just curious

[astral glen]

That invite link should be available on your own steam profile provided:

1. You are in the lobby yourself
2. The lobby is not full.

So even if you're not the host, if you join the lobby and there's still at least 1 free slot you should be able to get that link yourself.

[grim wadi]

ahhh nice ty 👍

[ancient cove]

THis method works too.
But you have to try multiple time sometimes, it's very bugged. It says sometimes "Multiplayer session ended" if you try to join, but after few tries it works

we just ended EDD with all who joined

[grave marsh]

Is there a bug where there's too little aquarks in the last stage of the normal dd

[fast stratus]

There's a cave not connected to the main cave

#bug-discussion message

[grave marsh]

Thanks, rock and stone

[cursive bough]

why is there a staircase of spitballers in stage 2 DD

[restive patrol]

it's fun isn't it

[candid fable]

Hello

Let play

[tacit nova]

I have a quick question but first
ROCK AND STONE EVERYONE, okay now I just recently joined the discord and I wanna do my first deep dive soon if I needed people to join I can just ask her right

Like soon this week not actually soon soon, because I haven't seen a single public lobby on Xbox at least for deep dives

[placid musk]

post an invite in #lfg-steam

do state this is your first dd

[tacit nova]

Okay whenever I do Ill make sure to say that @placid musk thanks brother

Hope you get pots of gold at the bar

[brave thorn]

there's pots of gold at my bar at least!

[normal herald]

Why is it that some of the lobbies are grayed out even though there's slots available?

[woeful niche]

i think those are old lobbies that disbanded already?

[coral pond]

or currently in the dive
