Anyone wanna help a new guy out

[novel storm]

If I see someone who is down and there are no bugs around I double check the ceiling

[left blaze]

Anyone wanna play some DRG

[plain sphinx]

#lfg-playstation

[covert valve]

i havent ran into enough cave leeches to have that as muscle memory

[left blaze]

Does anyone know how to level up quick cause I'm trying to promote my first dwarf

[pliant canopy]

Just by playing do secondary objective always and obviously primary

[mossy hatch]

All you can really do is run missions as fast as possible. Complete the primary objective, do the secondary if it doesn't take too much time, and get out. Rinse and repeat. Look for short missions, like 4 Eggs or 7 Aquarq, and look for missions with the Double XP mutator, but they're not always available. But there's no real "quick" way to level; going from level 24 to 25 alone will take several missions by itself.
Rushing through will not be as fun and will not be super fast, but you can get make it a little quicker

[left blaze]

Thx so much

[mossy hatch]

It can be fun to speedrun, but I'd make sure anyone you're playing with is on the same page

[neon gorge]

everything is viable, but some things are better than others in a lot of situations

[covert valve]

I've played almost 100 missions publicly with random people. I've had way more good experiences than bad. I never used my mic either.

Dont forget to handout accolades whenever possible

[polar halo]

🪨

[novel storm]

My experience has been great

Even when I played with some greenbeards again today

[latent jewel]

Anyone deal with the glitch of an entire tier on a weapon being unable to be clicked on?

[plain sphinx]

yes, it's a known issue

[latent jewel]

Any way to fix or is my crspr going in the trash until fixed?

Yeah tier 5 on all my driller primaries in unclickable. But only driller primaries

[mossy hatch]

Until there's a fix, do not add Overclocks to weapons before selecting the Tier 5 mod you want to be stuck with

[latent jewel]

Luckily I have a loadout set with enemies explode on crispr and fragile on cryo. Wanted to make a third for heat Radiance but that's out of the question

So it's tied to overclocks

[mossy hatch]

Yeah. Once you select an Overclock, it makes Tier 5 unselectable. Doesn't seem to affect everyone, but is affecting plenty of folks. The devs are aware of the issue

Sounds like for those it does affect, it affects all weapons. So be sure about your Tier 5 mod before adding an Overclock to any weapon

[latent jewel]

Alrighty. I can trust GSG to fix it pretty quick. And I'm fine with Enemies explode. And of course no reason to switch off of Fragile for cryo

Also noticed vertical courser movement in menus is really difficult, but it's fine if you use the track pad like a mouse

[covert valve]

got the trophy 🙃

this was very boring

[clever trail]

Oh god

[clever trail]

What mission type was it

[covert valve]

on-site refining

[clever trail]

1hr and 15mins and only 7000 xp, damn

[covert valve]

i was trying to get the trophy anyways lol

so the rewards dont matter to me that much anyways

[cold sapphire]

the one where you have to a ride a pipe for 2 mins is so bad man

i tried it once and was 20s off

[novel storm]

You need to play driller

And keep carving tunnels. It's pain but it's the only way

[cold sapphire]

it aint the only way

i was 20s off

i could easily have done it

but i was sure it was enough and connected it

i had plenty of space left in the cave

[near vine]

I did it with scout and just had to lay pipes over the entire floor. The key is: you don't have to succeed the mission, so once you get the achievement you can just leave

[cold sapphire]

yea

i just made it go across the entire map like three times lmao

btw

worst achievement ever is to fit every barrel into the drop pod

i could barely get 4 up there

[haughty mortar]

Can't click on some of my gunner upgrades

[cold sapphire]

for the A team

[cold sapphire]

got an overclock equipped?

[haughty mortar]

I tried removing it but still doesn't work

[cold sapphire]

yea i heard its an issue

that your 5th upgrade cant be changed or smth

try restarting the game or smth and if that doesnt work then its a fat F

[clever trail]

Ot happens when u select and choose an overclock I think

[haughty mortar]

Could it be intentional ?

[covert valve]

No

Before you equip an OC for the first time, you need to make sure your tier 5 upgrade is the one you want since you'll very possibly be stuck with it

[clever trail]

God no, there are alot of bugs the devs are trying to fix rn

[haughty mortar]

Hope they fix it

[covert valve]

There's no way this bug will stay

[clever trail]

In time it will be fixed

[honest adder]

guys since i uploaded this massage, some guy asked me about sharing my save file, i ofc said no, but now i started to receive an error CE-34878-0 wich is tied to save file corruption

can some one with out me somehow get my savefile?

i can connect to some games but not all of them

[crimson bramble]

Question what is better the thunderhead or the gunner's starter gatling?

[plain sphinx]

screenshot error screen and post in #929077046657826817

[plain sphinx]

Different tools for different tasks. What's better: a drill or an impact driver?

[crimson bramble]

Fair point. Just tired of someone I know bragging how overpowered the thunderhead is even when we dont have it yet (I have it now)

[fickle apex]

if u bought the game on plus you may be able to download one of your old saves from the cloud to undo the corruption

plus comes with cloud saving so you can just go to settings > save data management > save data in online storage > then find deep rock and download the files back, problem is, it updates only once a day, so you'll end up with an older save

[soft sentinel]

Worked for like 5mins to get the A-team trophy, with me and two others, 2 outta 3 of us got the trophy and we dunno why

[cold sapphire]

now imagine you had to get 25 barrels in there

instead of 4

[honest adder]

its really weird because iam currently playing with my friend and he had the same error while connecting to the ps5 user, and when we got this error, we decided to create our own loby and now we are playing normaly

[fickle apex]

bizarre

[covert valve]

where do i find one of these

[honest adder]

caretaker mission

[covert valve]

oh

[fickle apex]

theres a special mission type, the icon is a purple upside down triangle

completing the mission gives you the s c r i p

[crimson bramble]

Fun boss but loud so loud my ears hurt

[fickle apex]

yeah boss goes WOOOOOOM a lot

[crimson bramble]

Worst part I have a 100 dollar headset so my experience is base boosted WOOOOOOMMM

[honest adder]

ddroping that base

[crimson bramble]

My ears were ringing

Fun boss though

Just be ready to lose your hearing

[fickle apex]

gotta say, this game releasing in january was a massive big brain move

there is hardly anything else coming out this year so i could see myself reasonably platinuming the game casually in a year-ish

[crimson bramble]

Agreed plus this game is surprisingly addictive which is rare for me.

[fickle apex]

i havent put it down either lol, 26 hours logged so far

[crimson bramble]

Defeated the caretaker boss twice as soon as I got the challenge for the script

I love this game way too much. I havent had fun playing videogames since I was a kid

[fickle apex]

definitely the best game ive played in the last 12 months

[crimson bramble]

The battle pass is also super engaging

And I always ALWAYS hate battle passes but for some reason I like this better

[fickle apex]

free battle passes are divine

helps that they plan on releasing one new pass every 5 months so plenty of time to get it done

im level 20 so far 25 hours in, its girthy

[crimson bramble]

Agreed. Compare to other battlepasses where it's just a waste of time plus barely any rewards

Forcing you to buy it

This one feels fun and engaging and worth it

[brisk vale]

Where can I find a current OP build for engineer?

[honest adder]

youtube

there is a channel called legionless

[brisk vale]

Ok will look. Thanks @honest adder

[covert valve]

how do people tame Patrol Bots

[honest adder]

random chance

[covert valve]

oh so like BET-C but random

[crimson bramble]

Random but when you kill them they will drop down and you can hack them

[neon gorge]

everything in the battle pass will be available to unlock after in an unannounced way

[crimson bramble]

One time I was able to hack two patrol bots

[neon gorge]

you can get a whole squad

iv seen like 6 before

[crimson bramble]

Trying but I Mange to get one patrol bot with a Bet C in the Caretaker mission

[neon gorge]

it’s all luck :((

[crimson bramble]

Agreed. But terrifying if you accidentally encounter that "luck"

[frail herald]

For Rock and Stone!

[latent jewel]

Turns out, just looking at overclocks will bug out tier 5. My EPC is on TCF until the bug gets patches now

[covert valve]

What?

[latent jewel]

There's a glitch where checking your Overclocks on a gun can completely lock your tier 5 mods on a gun.

Recommended you are absolutely sure you like what tier 5 you've chosen before going to overclocks, cause until the bug is patched, you're stuck there.

[covert valve]

oh i haven't gotten that far yet

[timber needle]

Doesnt happen to everyone tho

Atleast not me

[latent jewel]

Yeah, not everyone. But sadly it seems more often than not. So go in safe

[timber needle]

Yep

If you have a free loadout slot do you think you can pick one of the others

Since the mods wont be applied on a fresh loadout

Just an idea

Idk if it works

[latent jewel]

Doesn't for me. EPC is locked on all slots, even my unused ones

[timber needle]

Rip

[latent jewel]

I'm fine with thin containment. But I do eventually want to pair plasma burn with the sludge pump

[timber needle]

Yea it works great

Im not really a fan of the sludge pump though

I gotta experiment with it more

Maybe get some oc's for it

[covert valve]

I'm still loving the CSP as someone that went straight to it from CRSPR
Feeling like I need to finally try out the Cryo Cannon since I've heard it's still the strongest driller weapon overall

[static knoll]

Anyone wana join our group, newbies lvl 2 and 3 doing egg mission

[neon gorge]

cryo isnt the best, just the most versatile. All his weapons are great

[drifting sail]

I love the Sludge Pump the most

special place in my heart

melting exploding spiders gives me the warm fuzzies

[novel storm]

I just played with the whiniest teammate, he kept going down and when he was down he kept spamming the voiceline to ask for help then took 3 resupplies for no reason

Built different

[cosmic gale]

Anyone wanna play?

[cosmic gale]

Built stupid

[cold sapphire]

why does one take 3

2 refill your stuff from 0 to 100%

[dense iron]

Being dumb

[covert valve]

what is written to the one who was kicked failed to join the server? because my game was interrupted when I did not help the host with pulling the pipe

[dense iron]

Just kinda out of luck

[vale oar]

Need a dev

Who do I go to

[dense iron]

🤷 dunno who's actually online this late

[vale oar]

I'm actually crushed

53 minute long game, and it bluescreened

[dense iron]

Just send the crash report all you can do

They have stated they look at those reports

[mossy hatch]

Considering it's about 6:00am on Sunday morning for the devs, I'd say your best bet for connecting with a dev is try again here in about 27 hours

[vale oar]

They know the game is blue screening. It's a global problem not a individual problem

I want them to push me through a 60 minute game

[dense iron]

Yeah but the cause could be different from system to system

[dense iron]

Wouldn't hold ya breathe

[mossy hatch]

Doing a Deep Dive?

[vale oar]

No, deep doves dont count

[mossy hatch]

Then what were you doing for 60 minutes?

[vale oar]

The trophy

60 minute long game

[mossy hatch]

Ah, sorry, didn't know that was a thing

In the three years I've been playing, I've never really looked at the list of achievements, haha

[plain sphinx]

A lot of the crashes I've seen since they updated to UE4.25 have been system specific. Game crashes are usually resolved fairly quickly. Not a whole lot GSG can do when your OS doesn't install an update correctly or an exotic solar particle decides to flip a 0 to a 1 in memory.

[dense iron]

I usually just send all reports and go my merry way

[mossy hatch]

Make sure Bosco has upgrades, upgrade and turn on the Thorns perk, and launch a Haz 1 Morkite mission and go watch TV for an hour? It'll probably work fine. Alternatively, if you don't have Thorns upgraded, you can dig yourself a hole and plug it with Engineer platforms

[vale oar]

And hope that a bulk or oppressor foesnt appear

[plain sphinx]

oh that? Do a deep dive and take your sweet time or start a mission, but don't enter the pod for about 45 minutes. Should do the trick.

[mossy hatch]

On Haz 1 I don't think you'll get bigger stuff often, if at all

[vale oar]

You sometimes die in the pod

[mossy hatch]

Seriously, on Haz 1 with Thorns maxed and Bosco with you it's almost impossible to die from anything but falling damage

So unless the trophy requires Haz 3 or something, just cheese it

[vale oar]

Sometimes you'll die and take all your shield and health whilst in the ood

I'm milking it

I know but 7 minutes off

[icy sage]

Sounds like a slacker on a ps4. Ps5 don’t blue screen

[dense spear]

Hey guys!

[dense iron]

👋

[trail ruin]

Joe

[trail ruin]

[rigid condor]

Anyone having trouble with game crashing on Incursions? It keeps happening on ps4 for me

[trail ruin]

[icy sage]

What’s incursion

[quaint zinc]

New mission type that came with the big update a few months back. It revolves around the rival corporation.

[icy sage]

Industrial sabotage ?

[ember lintel]

Yes

[craggy marlin]

Hey guys

[charred thicket]

wait

about that

@ember lintel will you add more easter eggs and possibly a final mission with props on karl's whereabouts?

after all, he was not a known figure to management so a mission would exaggerate his status a little

[raven token]

It clearly says ''You were kicked'' and also gives a share of minerals and credits. If it says Failed to join / connection lost then its just that, connection problems

[raven token]

you can also get it legit by doing Lenght 3 Complexity 3 morkite mining missions on higher hazards, those ones can strech out for quite some time especially if there are special events. not saying you will instantly get a 60min mission but keep at them and i guarantee that you will get one at some point. they are also some of the most fun missions IMO, peak DRG moments

[icy sage]

If want platinum trophy gonna be few hundred hours or so anyways so don’t need to target any trophy. Promote four dwarve to gold is hardest. And longest

Cam was in group with me and he blue screen 7 minutes away from 60

[devout timber]

I’m level 30 player acct and it’s so hard to find any decent players in Australia. Last 3 missions failed because of zero teamwork. Last one failed because nobody would stay in the uplink zone and I got overrun

Oh well, back to it

[honest adder]

i would join bbut my ping is will be over 300

😦

[devout timber]

On PC everyone has a mic so its easy to say hey let’s do this. On playstation hardly anyone has a mic or voice audio.

There needs better non verbal comms for console

It’s impossible to non verbally ask for light for example

[icy sage]

Well they made it free game so the player IQ ends up worse than of was paid game. Free games have low bar of entry and just gets whatever players.

But I’m glad it’s free for plus

[devout timber]

For sure. It will improve with time. I have it on PC also and its night and day with player iq

[dense iron]

Everyone pretty much assumes someone else will do it

[devout timber]

The japanese hosts are by far the best in our region, their pipe laying is 👌🏻

[surreal orchid]

I used to play on pc and never once heard anyone on the mic tho. If anything I’ve heard more people on the mic on ps since it’s built into the dual sense and defaults as being turned on

[devout timber]

On pc you can type also

[surreal orchid]

True

[honest adder]

yeah i would like to be able to type

[devout timber]

You can in this one if you plug in a keyboard, I tested it

[honest adder]

oh realy?

[devout timber]

Yep

[honest adder]

good to know

thx

[devout timber]

Also play with kb + mouse

[honest adder]

nah, not for me

[devout timber]

Same I prefer comfy couch

I sit up at a desk all day at work heh

[honest adder]

i get flash back from warking in the call center when i use kb and mouse 😄

[devout timber]

Haha exactly

[long lagoon]

Don't drop trophy ,, Now we Have a BET-C" on Ps4. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I defeat in solo and next fix BET-C. Next game BOSCO defeat I fix. Next game my friends defeat and they fix. Next game I defeat in solo and I fix solo when there was a whole squad. But the trophy doesn't drop.

[covert valve]

Veteran depositor perk is not displayed as a shield icon in the middle of the screen when leaving the pod at the beginning and at the end of the game too

[vagrant lichen]

how do i get the glyphid cosmetics or something

[stiff matrix]

Omg

[dense iron]

Congratulations

[gritty oxide]

Cargo crates but is ramdom

[vagrant lichen]

ok

[gritty oxide]

Also glyphid dreagnaug armor is a cosmetic dlc

[vagrant lichen]

whats the dlc

[gritty oxide]

País skins

Whit money

[vagrant lichen]

k

not hepy

[gritty oxide]

But wait

You want the armor ir the wearpon skins?

[vagrant lichen]

ok

[long lagoon]

1 person is needed, jump on the plants and wait for the host to kill 5 mobs if the trophy does not fall, all players will need to kill 5 mobs. Communication is not needed

[vagrant lichen]

the only time consuming trophy i got is the one with barrels

gotta stuff em in drop pog

[vale oar]

Stuff them or place them in each seat?

[vagrant lichen]

both

i did them both

[vale oar]

Oaight

[solid island]

Anyone looking to run hazard 4?

[devout timber]

Haz 4 with console controls and ps4 performance is so difficult

Pc I can do it easy, ps4 only one time survived so far

[solid island]

Ps5 has no performance issues though

I've completed probably close to 10 Haz 4 missions. But my normal crew hasn't logged in for awhile and I wanna unlock lethal

[devout timber]

Yeah, wish I could find one for sale in australia 😦

[calm blaze]

Anyone need (time well spent & A team trophy)

[granite solar]

how do you unequip an overclock on ps?

[calm blaze]

I’ve got all barrels in pod

[covert valve]

no shit its a new gen console

ps4 is almost 10 years old

[clever trail]

Yo I'm in Australia and if u want to play together we can when i get back home

Ps4 is 10 yrs next year

[sly roost]

Just gonna warn fellow players about this troll stealing ammo and teamkilling at the end of missions

[novel storm]

Rip

[clever trail]

Pointy eared leaf lover detected

[sly roost]

Somehow clutched at the end when the gunner got him down and I had to use the pick axe to fight my way to the drop pod

[clever trail]

I spit on that descrace of a dwarf

[uncut fractal]

hello little ask for information?

@honest dust Can I disturb you?

[granite solar]

I cant unequip all ocs on ps, am I dumb? can anyone check? There's no button or option

[azure hatch]

Hey I'm looking for some people with a mic

[uncut fractal]

He does not make me connect to a friend of mine who tells me connection lost and same thing for him when he connects to me how can I do?

[tame zephyr]

I have The same problem on ps5. Dont know what to do.

[clever trail]

These are all bugs the devs know about and are currently trying to fix

[covert valve]

How u know are dev too?

[dusk solstice]

Anyone on PS not getting the BET-C trophy even after trying multiple times?

[clever trail]

No, its cause its a bug that has been talked about for ages and devoplers of games are always fixing bugs

[vale oar]

Doea the trophy talk anything about a required hazard level?

[novel storm]

I didn't read it well

[dusk solstice]

Nope, all my friends got it just not me

[vale oar]

I know some people are having a lot of trouble at the moment with this trophy with a simple bit of advice. Run me through what you're doing when you encounter Bet C

[vale oar]

Sounds dumb but I helped a group of 4 because they weren't doing it properly. So let me know every step of what you're doing when she apears

[cold sapphire]

how can you not do bet c properly

like

you find it, kill it

and then you repair it

i dont think theres anything that can go wrong

[vale oar]

Some people who shall not be named for fear of being publicly humiliated , were not repairing it

[dusk solstice]

Yeah pretty much found it, shot the little weak points on it to disable it, and repaired it

Don’t think there’s much more to say than that is there?

[vale oar]

Did you specifically help repair it?

[dusk solstice]

Yeah, even done one solo

[vale oar]

Hmmm. Try hazard 3. If the problem persists, I'll come and help you get it. If that doeant work itll probably be a bug that they'll sort in a next patch

Either way do not worry about these trophies if they are bugged. If you are trophy collecting, you main problem is getting the 4 characters to 1 gold star

[plain sphinx]

Screenshot the error screen and post in #929077046657826817

[plain sphinx]

#playstation message

[dusk solstice]

I tend to play on hazard 3 or 4 depending, tried it about 5ish times on hazard 3 and once on hazard 4. I think it’s honestly a bug I was just curious if anyone else had it too. Either way the help offer is appreciated

[vale oar]

Yeah some people I have looked at have go the trophy with my help, some havent. Just something they'll fix in the upcoming patches. Unlike most game companies, they do try their best to fix the minor issues. Also the game is new to console, so like 90% of games will have glitches trophies

[drowsy pivot]

Man this week's edd is whooping my ass all day

[vale oar]

All depends on what you're running

[tame zephyr]

Thx will do so later.

[drowsy pivot]

Running one of each mostly, just inexperienced I guess

[vale oar]

That and you dont run 1 of 3ach

You need atleast 1 driller for this one. 2 gunners and 1 engineer or 2 engineers and 1 gunner

You dont need a scout at all for this one

[native jungle]

Has anyone reported the tier 5 upgrades bug yet?

[drowsy pivot]

Should still work with a scout tho

[vale oar]

No the scout is useless. It's an elite deep dive, you need dps

[vale oar]

You can run scout if you dont need a driller. As you do have a liquid mork mission, you need a driller. Otherwise if there isnt a liquid mission, run 1 scout

[plain sphinx]

#jira-bug-reporter

[cold sapphire]

wat

[native jungle]

Is it a common bug?

[lime tundra]

that's how edd works in general?

[plain sphinx]

it has already been reported

[drifting sail]

Mule just did a straight vertical up a resupply hole in a cavern... do not like.

[honest adder]

iam currently uploading my solo scout run of this edd, took me a lot of time but i did it in the end, just need alot of practice, dont know if i can share the link here, probably not, but if you interested i can send it to you in the dm

[honest adder]

well molly takes a shortest rout

[drifting sail]

Molly is worse than a Scout

love when engineers plug resupply holes lol

[lime tundra]

we need a 4th for EDD if anyone's available

[plain sphinx]

#lfg-playstation

[lime tundra]

asked there already too

[cyan grove]

Lf a scout or driller.

[vale oar]

Is that a question?

If it is then yes. EDD is H4 to 5 difficulty, so that means lots of monsters and waves. The scout goes through a lot of ammo very quickly. That why your dps is gunner and engineer as they do the most dps. That's why you have 2 of 1 and 1 of the other. 2 engineers are best as you'll have a lot of bulk detonators and you'll always have to defend a black box or a mule mission, and you'll also have an exterminator

[lime tundra]

yeah, asking about what the general class comp would be

[vale oar]

So unless you know what all 3 missions are, and you want to do your best on your first go, 2 engine, 1 gunner and the other slot is either driller or scout. Always best to go driller incase of liquid mork missions and he can drill you to the escape pod if you need it.

Also remember, you'll probably not get it on your first go, but the nice thing about them is the mapsndont change, and the missions dont change.

[scenic nebula]

I had 132k credits but I after restarting the game now I have 70k credits, this must be a bug, right? This happened to anyone else?

[polar halo]

🪨

[cosmic gale]

anyone wanna play?

[plain sphinx]

#lfg-playstation

[cosmic gale]

Ah

[covert valve]

Will I get experience for successfully winning the machine event?

[plain sphinx]

you get experience for finishing a machine event regardless of the outcome.

[solid island]

Who wants to run Hazard 4 missions for assignment?

[covert valve]

Do you mine minerals and gold? or just passing by

[south compass]

Depends on the mood i guess.

[covert valve]

Why play games with a bad mood?

[south compass]

Hmm, not in the bad way though.

I sometimes don't like to mine on the roof.

[covert valve]

oh well, someone has to earn for you

[solid island]

I mine everything

[solid island]

How can I get around the connection issues for joining friends?

[plain sphinx]

screenshot the error message and post in #929077046657826817 then see pinned messages in this channel

[lime tundra]

thanks, ended up clearing with double engie/scout/driller, mostly because that's what people had available

two engies definitely defend a bunker well, and we were lucky to never have a bulk show up while holed up, though I did have an escape route planned out

[raven token]

this guy doesnt know what he's talking about. go to the general drg-chat for yourself and ask the same. scout is maybe one of the most useful classes in EDDs, regardless which EDD it is

[honest adder]

true

[vale oar]

Sure dude. The scout gives absolutely nothing to EDD. It's funny cause I did go to the general chat, and the most useful class I was told by a lot of people is engi.

[honest adder]

tell it to my solo scout eed run

[honest adder]

and the difficulty in edd is 4.5, 5, 5.5

[raven token]

generally people refuse to even go to EDDs without a scout, not much so with gunner/driller

[vale oar]

Want me to solo the EDD on all classes for you? The fuck does that prove? That you can do an EDD with less enemies and easier mobs?

[raven token]

and the scout is a dps buff for the whole team, but i guess you wouldnt know about it

[honest adder]

it proves that your point are invalid

[vale oar]

Hence I said engi over gunner. You still need the DPS. And if you play the game, I have mo understanding how you can say that liquid morkite missions dont require a driller on EDD

[vale oar]

If I solo a H5 mission with the gunner? Does that prove that the gunner is the best class?

[honest adder]

no

[vale oar]

It must do according to your logic

[honest adder]

it means that you are good with it

there is no bad class

only bad hands

[vale oar]

Okay sweet, then tell me the practical uses over having a scout over the other 3

When faced with liquid mork missions

[honest adder]

scout is kiter class, he can seperate and kill big packs of bugs very fast

[vale oar]

So can gunner and engi

[coarse lava]

Are there still issues with trophies after the latest update? Apparently management is promoting me even without "Miner" for completing my first mission 😂

[vale oar]

I asked for practical reasons for a scout

[honest adder]

isnt kiting practical?

just learn the class

[vale oar]

A gunner is always an okay pick as it has huge Aoe damage and if you have a downed teammate or 2, you can get them back up instantly

Every role can kite if you have hands.

[honest adder]

sure

lets use a hammer to saw nails dude

[spiral jolt]

Scout provides light, can mine a ton of nitra quickly, and makes a good med

Gunner is probably the least important EDD class

[raven token]

gunner doesnt always have good aoe dmg, and the scout is arguably a better/more efficient reviver than gunner

and as i said scout is a dps buff for the whole team

[vale oar]

If you're doing an EDD with a group, you're taking your time.

[spiral jolt]

Scout can take out entire groups of Mactera with his cryo grenade and can 1 shot trijaws with the m1000

[spiral jolt]

No?

Solos are much slower than groups

[raven token]

not really, by dragging on an EDD you waste ammo

[vale oar]

Depends solely on the mission

[honest adder]

taking your time? what are you talking about

[spiral jolt]

Especially this EDD with oxygen

"Let's take our time on a low oxy EDD mission with pumpjacks!"

[vale oar]

What you guys are failing to comprehend is what I said was to a player doing their first EDD

Not everyone is as competent or experienced as you or me

[spiral jolt]

a team of 4, 1 of each class is probably best

[honest adder]

yeah lets missinform him

[vale oar]

We can all solo EDD fine, you 5think they can

[spiral jolt]

and EDD is closer to Haz 3.5

I'd rather cut my pinky finger off than solo EDD

[honest adder]

the first solo edd run for me was as a scout

[spiral jolt]

Hate solo missions

[vale oar]

Hmmm, he did it with 2 engi and 1 driller like I recommended, only difference was he took a scout

[spiral jolt]

why would you take 2 engies

[raven token]

thats even a greater reason to need a scout cuz they will be needing all the nitra they can and also finish the objectives faster (which also conserves ammo)

[vale oar]

Oh yes. Let the players with little experience rush through it and die. Not like we havent see all that before

[spiral jolt]

Going faster only has benefits in most EDD missions

[raven token]

they increase their risk of dying the longer they stay there

[vale oar]

You're telling me you can mine nitra with any other class?

[covert valve]

LLLLLEEEEEEEERRRRRRROOOOOYYY

[honest adder]

how would they learn otherwise?

[raven token]

cant mine the nitra if you dont see it

[vale oar]

You play with 10 brightness or something?

[spiral jolt]

any egg collection, morkite refining, aquarq, or morkite mining missions only get more difficult he longer you hang on

a lot of plyers miss nitra unless scout illuminates

[vale oar]

Morkite doesnt get harder then longer you take unless you take it to over 40 minutes

[raven token]

i play with the intended gamma settings, which means the darker parts are literally pitch black, because thats a huge part of this game

also i dont think cranking up brightness really helps with the pitch black spots like in sandblasted

[spiral jolt]

I play with high brightness because I like being able to see 👁️

[spiral jolt]

it doesn't much

[quiet cliff]

In mining taking your time isn't bad as more exploration = more possible nitra

[vale oar]

Good for you. You guys are using your own personal experiences and intentionally not thinking about new players

[quiet cliff]

In pumpjack less time is better

[quaint hornet]

More time= more swarms tho (in mining missions)

[spiral jolt]

I have less than 50 hours u dingus

[quiet cliff]

Because pumpjack is a pure swarm mode

And the map is very small

[spiral jolt]

I'm just not new to FPS

[vale oar]

And what roles do you have promoted?

[spiral jolt]

Scout

that's it

[vale oar]

There we go

[spiral jolt]

Promoting driller next

Why don't you just get your toxic ass out of here 🤣

[vale oar]

I dont even need to say anything else. Scout mains.

[raven token]

well i have 820 hours and all classes gold so theres that

[vale oar]

On PC, surely not playstation.

[raven token]

i agree with Fluffs points

yes on PC, but why does that matter?

[spiral jolt]

Game is the same

[vale oar]

So you are able to play with competent players, who have had the same experience as you have

[raven token]

i do most my EDDs with random pubbies who tend to be quite low level

[covert valve]

I'm on playstation, I dont get your point lol

[vale oar]

Not sure you guys are getting what I'm saying. I gave a new player to EDDs tips, and he did it. And you guys are made about that?

[raven token]

and also all ppl on playstation arent inexperienced either

[vale oar]

Do you have over 800 hours?

[covert valve]

Do I need to?

[honest adder]

i mostly play with compitent players on ps4, if YOU had bad experience dosen mean every one else had the same

[vale oar]

Do you think there is no correlation between time and skill?

[spiral jolt]

No

[raven token]

im not mad, its just bad advise to tell a new player that scout is *useless *on EDD, when its quite the opposite

[spiral jolt]

I was running haz 4 with 1 silver 2 engie and a gunner only level 15 when I was unpromoted

[honest adder]

its an fps, and its not the first fps in history of ps4

[covert valve]

I think any gamer who is intelligent and knows theres coop can follow their teams guidance.

[quiet cliff]

All classes are good in EDD

As every dwarf is specialized

[spiral jolt]

experiences across most FPS games are transferable

[quiet cliff]

And covered their own weaknesses well, as a collective group

[spiral jolt]

the onyl things that aren't obvious are gem deposits in walls (Jadiz, etc)

[quiet cliff]

The scout assists by finding targets first, being out of reach of allies incase of a full team wipe to provide clutch resses and is able to make large swathes of a cave visble

Making target acquisition very easy

[raven token]

the scouts light increases the whole teams damage

well not drillers

[quiet cliff]

Scout flares are 100% accuracy up buff to all players

Scouts ALSO excell at kiting swarms

Their incredibly high speed and ability to negate basically any fall damage makes them great for that

[spiral jolt]

can also deal with Neocyte breeders instantly with grenades, mactera swarms

can 1 shot trijaws, 3 shot menaces on weakpoint with m1000

[vale oar]

You think there is no correlation between skill and time, you would rather let new players go through it over and over again and not give them tips to cheese, you play with zero brightness and so should everyone and you're all gaining scouts. If I chatted shit about the gunner, I can only only imagine how many gunner mains I'd get. But my advice worked, so it couldnt have been that bad.

[quiet cliff]

The only 'downside' there really is to a scout is it struggles as a class to hold its groud like the other three classes

It's a very hit and run centric class

[spiral jolt]

don't have to hold ground if you change your ground

Floating OC on m1000 means you can take a shot midair in a longfall and grapple elsewhere

[raven token]

even tho your advise might have helped them this time (and really you cant know if its the class which made the difference cuz there are countless of variables), its just in general bad advise long-term

[spiral jolt]

I'm just saying the class I'd miss the least on an EDD would be gunner. Driller makes pipelinemissions a breeze and Engies have platforms

Gunner has grapple lines

[raven token]

also there is not necessarily correlation between skill and time really, and do you really want to give new players tips to cheese? is that really what new players should be doing, what will they learn with cheesing?

[vale oar]

That same logic, scout could have been the worst.

[honest adder]

i just cant with that guy

[raven token]

also, i never said everyone should play with the intended brightness settings, and secondly i dont main any of the classes

[spiral jolt]

why do you have a raging hateboner for scout

[vale oar]

I agree, the reason you have the gunner is for the safety net of 100% safe revives.

[honest adder]

he probably kicks people that take molly from him

[pseudo jasper]

🍿*

[raven token]

gunners shield isnt 100% safe tho, esp in a new players hands

[spiral jolt]

someone going on an EDD isn't even a noob

they've been playing at least 30 hours

[vale oar]

Your.logic can be used for every class though

[spiral jolt]

Do people just not learn anything about the class they've been playing on haz 3, 4, before deep diving?

🤣

[raven token]

what is my logic? i specifically accounted the 100% part of the gunners shield

[mossy hatch]

Gunner's shield definitely does not stop everything

[vale oar]

Do an EDD with randoms and complete it. Shareplay and I'll watch it all

[raven token]

since there are attacks which can go thru the shield

[mystic reef]

LOL, gunners who think their shield stops bulk detonators. I've seen it a few times, makes me laugh every time

[spiral jolt]

Every EDD I've done with randoms thus far has failed because of leavers

[vale oar]

You said that an inexperienced player might not know how to use gunner. Same goes for the other 3 classes

[spiral jolt]

except one time my whole team went down on the 2nd mission because of a massive swarm

😭

[vale oar]

No. It just stops 80% of the shit in the game

[neon gorge]

cus most new players on playstation might not realize you gotta be used to haz 5 to do it

[spiral jolt]

You don't

[honest adder]

exactly, you have no idea how scout works

[raven token]

i said that the shield is not a 100% safety net, especially in a new players hands. dont twist my words

[plain sphinx]

👀

[spiral jolt]

I don't play haz 5 and EDD isn't that hard

[neon gorge]

i mean u can get carried but if you wanna do well it’s literally haz 5

so u might wanna try haz 5 before it lol

[spiral jolt]

it doesn't feel any harder than haz 4

[neon gorge]

how many edds have u done?

[spiral jolt]

It's just hard convincing my team to hurry up and not waste ammo

[vale oar]

So the majority of players on last weeks EDD didnt struggle with the second mission?

[spiral jolt]

I haven't finished this weeks yet, it would be my first. I keep getting teammates that go down for mysterious reasons

Best team I was on my internet suffered because I was connecting to a NZ user from the US

[neon gorge]

this weeks is a very easy one, and even then, you still need haz 5 experience to be comfortable in it

[spiral jolt]

I mean it doesn't feel hard, but I'm not a PS player. I don't play with a controller, either

I'm only here because Cameron made a dumb argument about scout being the least useful class in EDD

[vale oar]

You've never done an EDD

[neon gorge]

i carried some fairly experienced players a few days ago, and they were promoted. They just were t used to haz 5

[vale oar]

Relax

[spiral jolt]

I've done 4, just never completed B)

[raven token]

y u triggered mate

[vale oar]

That's the same thing

[vale oar]

You keep making arguments that go both ways.

[spiral jolt]

you keep being an idiot

"Gunner bezt cl4ss scout suk on EDD!!!"

fucking hell

[neon gorge]

i’m steam only as well lol

[raven token]

keep making? i've done two arguments which you said that to, and the latter one you misunderstood or tried to reword it

[vale oar]

I said the gunner was the third worst class for this EDD for new players.

[spiral jolt]

I dont' think engie's very useful after 1 on this EDD, and Scout's been extremely useful for morkite mining quickly

[vale oar]

You says players might not know how to use the shield correctly. Same can be said for the grappling hook, the satchel or sentry turrets.

[neon gorge]

all classes are useful for pretty much every deep dive

[spiral jolt]

if you don't know how to use the grappling hook on a promoted scout how are you still playing this game

[spiral jolt]

I'm saying doubling up engie is bad

[raven token]

"gunners shield isnt 100% safe tho, esp in a new players hands"

"even tho your advise might have helped them this time (and really you cant know if its the class which made the difference cuz there are countless of variables), its just in general bad advise long-term" (to say that scout is useless in EDD)

[neon gorge]

doubling on anything besides scout tends to fuck ur mobility imo

[vale oar]

And if you dont know how to use the shield correctly as a promoted gunner

[spiral jolt]

I might be using driller wrong because I don't see his satchel as being too useful tbh

[spiral jolt]

timing is weirder on shield, I could definitely see it

if you're that bad with a grapple hook though after 30 hours on a class you'd probably just quit because you'd raging from fall damage

[neon gorge]

can destroy a swarm and if you use stun, it can stun enemies for 5 seconds in a 10m radius

[quiet cliff]

Satchel is for fast excavation or BIG damage

And by big I mean BIG

It's a huge burst of damage

[spiral jolt]

It takes 2 to kill a praetorian though?

[mystic reef]

satchel is awesome for clearing out those rooms with all the crystals that make it a pain in the ass to move around.

[raven token]

that was specifically aimed at the portion that the shield would be a 100% safety net for revives as you said, i've never claimed that the other classes would enable "100%" insurance about anything

[neon gorge]

it’s for swarms not big bugs

[pseudo jasper]

Satchel is a multipurpose tool

[spiral jolt]

I really don't see how a shield is any better for reviving than cryoing and using med

[cold sapphire]

it goes boom

[vale oar]

Okay so.you agree the shield makes revives a lot easier?

[cold sapphire]

it does a lot of damage

you can make bunkers

theyre versatile

[spiral jolt]

so bigger blast better than higher damage?

[mystic reef]

depends on how you prefer to use it

[neon gorge]

dude ppl sleep on c4 stun, that thing has a radius bigger than nuke

[cold sapphire]

yea

[pseudo jasper]

@cold sapphire don't forget if you don't want to spend a year mining a crassus det in a small tunnel

[neon gorge]

you don’t even need bigger blast, just go both ammo

[cold sapphire]

thats also true

[cold sapphire]

i usually go for max damage

so it shreds everything i need it to

[quiet cliff]

Ammo upgrades are best imho because better resupply. But bigger damage doesn't hurt either

[raven token]

yes, but i also argue that the scout is more efficient in reviving especially since it doesnt cost him any ammo, also he can get to revive faster without compromising his damage too much, a gunner running for revives is gimping his own damage moreso than the scout. the gunner should ideally NOT use the shield for revives, but to prevent dwarfs going down in the first place

[quiet cliff]

I stay away from bigger radius cuz I'm used to current radius

I'd be killing myself and allies alot more if I popped those on

[neon gorge]

only makes it better for bigger targets tho which i never use it on, and volatile means i can get killed by teammates

[pseudo jasper]

If you don't have x class you'll miss not having x class at some point

[cold sapphire]

i always use it as a panic button lol

[spiral jolt]

I saw Volatile and went "Why would I use this?"

"This sounds bad"

[cold sapphire]

if shit hits the fan im yeeting the c4

[quiet cliff]

That's why you promote every class

[quiet cliff]

Combos with other explosives

[neon gorge]

use it with max ammo and stun, you won’t be disappointed at how effective it is on a haz 5 swarm

[quiet cliff]

Throw C4. Gunner throws cluster. Boom boom

[vale oar]

That's not what I said. You dont need a shield to revive. However if there is a swarm, and you have a bunch of shit on you, which class is most likely going to revive someone without going down themselves?

[spiral jolt]

combos with teammates blowing u or themselves up

[cold sapphire]

oh i know

[raven token]

scout

[cold sapphire]

i just like the delete button

[spiral jolt]

Scout can literally just run away

clearly scout

[neon gorge]

i stay the fuck away from drillers with volatile

[mystic reef]

cryo grenade & revive

[spiral jolt]

especially in a massive room

[mystic reef]

easy.

[honest adder]

shield is not even infinite

[cold sapphire]

you should

trust me

its not on purpose

[vale oar]

The whole point of having a gunner for a group of new players trying out EDD is for the safety net of having effective and safe revives

[cold sapphire]

^

[spiral jolt]

but the scout does that job just as if not more easily?

[icy sage]

Gunner IS pretty terrible tho 🤔 is my least liked class. God awful mobility and doesn’t offer extra benefits for team as others

[cold sapphire]

gunner is clutch

[spiral jolt]

The grapple can be good for dealing with massive swarms and hanging off the floor

[raven token]

that is a good point, but i have never said that you shouldnt take a gunner to EDDs nor that they would be useless. which is quite opposite from you saying literally that ''scout is useless in EDDs''

[neon gorge]

i was once shooting at something as gunner, driller throws c4 next to me so i instantly shoot it and blow us both up, Only i survive due to explosive resist

[honest adder]

new players will die alot, you will use all your shileds, you will call the supply so often you woill wish for scout to get the nitra

[spiral jolt]

exactly

[mystic reef]

I think just providing light for newer players kinda outshines gunner's shield IMO. Plus Scout has awesome crowd-control grenades that don't blow the team up

[raven token]

ideally you want one of each class

[spiral jolt]

The best group for EDD is one of each

[cold sapphire]

yea its hard to use volatile and not kill your team

[spiral jolt]

and Cryo and IFGs are great

[quiet cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/madagscar-penguins-kaboom-gif-9833865

[vale oar]

But you'll last longer than you would without a gunner, allowing you to gain some sort of experience with the EDD

[mystic reef]

I mean if we're talking about general utility and team-wide benefits

[spiral jolt]

Pheremones kind of useless just have your engie run his grenade that does the same thing

[neon gorge]

especially when u throw it in front of the gunner

[quiet cliff]

I mean... gunner can also do funny zipline stalling

[honest adder]

exactly

[cold sapphire]

it has such a huge radius that its hard to throw it anywhere lmao

[quiet cliff]

Which can help... if you don't have macteras

[neon gorge]

pheromones is useless because cryo is more useful with the same amount of uses

[spiral jolt]

better than driller and 2 usless grenades

[cold sapphire]

drillers nades are all crazy wdym

[spiral jolt]

m1 scout can chargekill most grenades

[cold sapphire]

the gas goes boom if you ignite it

[mystic reef]

Scout also has some potent single-target damage so that newer players can focus on swarm clear.

[neon gorge]

he only has 1 useless grenade

[cold sapphire]

HEs arent bad either

[quiet cliff]

Neurotoxin grenades is nutty

[spiral jolt]

I haven't tried them but my teammates told me they're useless besides axe

[neon gorge]

that’s not the best part about the gas

[cold sapphire]

nah the gas can be ignited

it goes boom

and it hurts

if youre not using cryo id go for gas nades tbh

[spiral jolt]

Scout has the highest single-target damage in the game he just sucks at killing tones of swarmers

[honest adder]

what do you guys main? jsut so we can see how many non scout mains try to prove cameron is wrong?

[quiet cliff]

Everything

[mystic reef]

I mostly play engineer and driller

[spiral jolt]

Scoot

[cold sapphire]

he has good waveclear with blowthrough

[raven token]

i dont main anything, i play all classes equally

[cold sapphire]

and embedded dets are kinda disgusting

[spiral jolt]

I don't use blowthrough with my m1

[neon gorge]

axes will always be very good, but neurotoxin covers a huge area and anything grunt that comes thru it is guaranteed to die. Very good at covering even big chokepoints like on drilldozer. It can be inconsistent tho if someone blows it up too early

[cold sapphire]

wat

what are you using

[quiet cliff]

I'm promo-scout. Promo-engie, 21 Drill, 19 gunner

[cold sapphire]

you gotta use blowthrough man

[neon gorge]

oh u took my advice

[cold sapphire]

ammo efficiency through the roof

[spiral jolt]

it'll just blowthrough and hit the ground dude

[neon gorge]

naw just take ammo and only use it on big targets

[mystic reef]

To be fair, playing on Playstation, there are a lot of Greenbeard scouts. So I can't really blame someone that has taken a negative opinion on them because I've seen a lot of them forget about the flare gun halfway through the mission, never be with the team, and in general be more of a liability

[cold sapphire]

i did use them once, saw what they do to opressors

[vale oar]

Good thing the majority of the people here use scout as their main role. Would hate to be proven wrong

[honest adder]

so its literally not a single scout main tries to prove he is wrong 😄 okay 1 scout main

[spiral jolt]

I can't aim at the same plane as the grunt

[cold sapphire]

but then you have nothing against waves

[spiral jolt]

Nah, I'm a scout main

[thorny perch]

Driller because sludge is king

[mystic reef]

But the good Scouts make missions real easy

[thorny perch]

And cryo is for chumps

[spiral jolt]

that's what the zhukovs are for

[neon gorge]

hipfire m1 and bouncy drak

[cold sapphire]

not with embedded dets

lmao

[neon gorge]

not with ED

[cold sapphire]

zhuks are not good waveclear

[quiet cliff]

Zhukovs are wave clear unless you do ED OC

[native jungle]

Is there a fix for the final upgrade tier bug? I know I keep going on about it but it's so horrible, I'm stuck with ricochet on my hyper repellent

[quiet cliff]

If you do ED it's ST damage

[thorny perch]

I wouldn’t use ED on waves

Unless it’s like

Haz 3

[cold sapphire]

yea just m1 blowthrough

[vale oar]

2 people didnt answer and the other 2 said scout? The fuck you on?

[mystic reef]

as Scout you really should be relying on your team for wave clear, IMO. Keep clear of the swarms and your teammates' line of fire, go for stuff on ceilings and flyers

[quiet cliff]

Jury rigged feels better for burst unless you do ED Zhukovs

[neon gorge]

it is a bit weird having ur secondary be the single dps monster, but there are some decent swarm clear builds on m1 and drak

[cold sapphire]

i honestly love blowthrough m1

[quiet cliff]

That and being able to dump both shots quickly on cryo targets is butter

[cold sapphire]

i always kill at least 2

[raven token]

have you tried taking a different loadout in the upper left corner in weapon terminal? that clears all the mods i think

[thorny perch]

I haven’t used m1k in so long

[honest adder]

look better and watch you language kido

[neon gorge]

ye m1 can be built to do whatever you want very well

[thorny perch]

Drak my beloved

[native jungle]

Yes, but for some reason they are all taken up despite the fact I never actually used any other than the first

[neon gorge]

i tried gk2 for the first time in awhile yesterday, ‘twas strange

[quiet cliff]

Funny bouncy bullet go brrrrr

[raven token]

plenty of people said that they dont main any class

[thorny perch]

I only use opa

[spiral jolt]

my m1 is 23221

[thorny perch]

Bouncy plasma doesn’t interest me

[cold sapphire]

i did too and then i realised i had 0 waveclear

[quiet cliff]

All the classes are fun

Idk why you'd play only one

[cold sapphire]

gunner is mid

rest is fun

[thorny perch]

I main all the classes and find them all fun

[neon gorge]

gk2 needs ocs to make it shine. And even then scouts other primaries do a lot of things better

[vale oar]

I'm pretty sure you have the most play time or either scout or engi by a considerable margin

[icy sage]

Fun does not = useful though .

[cold sapphire]

i have the no recoil one

its amazing for single target burst

[thorny perch]

All the classes have their uses tho

[raven token]

ynnesolace - all classes, xenonomist engi and driller, fluff scout, me everything, snoot bug driller

[cold sapphire]

but again, no waveclear

[neon gorge]

that’s actually wut i was using yesterday lol

[cold sapphire]

its so fun

[spiral jolt]

my nuk17 is 13122 I think

[cold sapphire]

70% weakpoint bonus

but 0 waveclear so rip

[neon gorge]

ye gk2 goes much better with boomstick for sure

but then you miss ED

[cold sapphire]

boomstick is so lackluster

[thorny perch]

Gk2 is probably a weapon I’ll never use again

Sadly

[quiet cliff]

Man. I love GK2 but man I don't like using it.

[cold sapphire]

theres one fun OC

[spiral jolt]

Boomstick looks powerful but it feels so weak

[cold sapphire]

rest is just weird

[quiet cliff]

gk2 feels GOOD to shoot

[neon gorge]

naw boomstick is a monster, just boring ocs

[quiet cliff]

But bad to use for me

[raven token]

what are you on about? 😄 thats just weird mate

[mystic reef]

I unlocked bullets of mercy as like my first OC, but I haven't played scout enough to slot it

[cold sapphire]

its OCs are boring tbh

[mystic reef]

but it seems pretty good

[cold sapphire]

the flying one is fun but thats it

[quiet cliff]

It's super good.

[neon gorge]

that’s the meta oc for gk2, basically a straight damage buff

[icy sage]

More than me?

Or /s

[mystic reef]

Do IFGs cause any status that proc BoM?

[cold sapphire]

what player levek yall on

[quiet cliff]

Yee

[mystic reef]

hell yeah.

[quiet cliff]

Ifg is technically electric

[thorny perch]

I don’t wanna say tbh neither does kinked

[quiet cliff]

But it has the IFG effect of more damage+slow debuff

[neon gorge]

say wut

[thorny perch]

I’m too no life at the game tbh

You know this

[icy sage]

I’m 83

[cold sapphire]

i mean youre on xbox

[neon gorge]

at least ur not as bad as the shark boi

[thorny perch]

Shark boi is pretty high

[vale oar]

They think I'm a gunner main as well

[cold sapphire]

fr?

[mystic reef]

I've played a bit on PS since it came out on Plus, I think my player level is like 30ish

[quiet cliff]

I'm on PS4 and I'm at player rank 33 something

[cold sapphire]

someones been grindin

[cold sapphire]

same n im 52

[mystic reef]

Right on. I haven't been super efficient with XP modifiers or goals. A lot of screwing around.

[quiet cliff]

So in like... 13 days

[raven token]

literally no-one has said that, quit acting like a victim

[quiet cliff]

I've promoted 2 classes and then like almost promoted the other two.

[thorny perch]

My player level is above 10

[vale oar]

Solace and fluff didntnsay that, you're right.

[thorny perch]

There you go

[honest adder]

we think you just hate scout

[neon gorge]

ye same

[quiet cliff]

So if people say a promote takes 30 hours

[mystic reef]

I've only promoted engie so far, now I'm just kinda checking out the others a bit here and there

[vale oar]

Not solace, the sosed guy

[cold sapphire]

youre on xbox so its fine

[quiet cliff]

I've played almost 80 hours

😩

[cold sapphire]

youve been playing for longer than a week lmao

[thorny perch]

What does that have to do with anything

[quiet cliff]

No life time

[cold sapphire]

well

drg just came out on ps

[thorny perch]

Yes

[cold sapphire]

so im wondering whos a nolife and who aint

[quiet cliff]

Average time of 6 hours per day

[cold sapphire]

and youre on xbox

[quiet cliff]

Since release

On ps4

[cold sapphire]

aka you had access to the game for longer

[thorny perch]

Ive played a lot

[small prism]

I wanna see how much time does it take to someone to get the platinum

[cold sapphire]

thats alright

[cold sapphire]

doesnt take that long

[mystic reef]

Why does it matter? If Snoot doesn't wanna disclose their player level, that's their business

[small prism]

Well

[cold sapphire]

if you actually go for them it would take a day or two

[quiet cliff]

Gotta do 4 classes to gold promote

[cold sapphire]

worst one is 25 barrels in the drop pod

[raven token]

day or two???

[cold sapphire]

oh wait i forgot abt that one

[quiet cliff]

That takes like... 20 minutes

[raven token]

are we talking about achievements or class medals

[cold sapphire]

i cant even get one up there xD

skill issue ig

[thorny perch]

Getting gold promo takes maybe

200 hours…?

For all of them

[cold sapphire]

whats gold

[cold sapphire]

is it after the first one?

[thorny perch]

Gold promotion

[small prism]

Ive got every single barrel related trophy

[icy sage]

Ya

[thorny perch]

Bronze
Silver
Gold
Plat
Diamond
Legendary

[neon gorge]

it takes a day or 2 for all classes to be gold promo? dam ps4 players really do be grinding

[thorny perch]

That’s the promos

[cold sapphire]

nah i forgot abt that one

[raven token]

you have to promote three times to go up a ''medal'', so to get gold you have to promote 7 times

[cold sapphire]

yea

[raven token]

6

lol

[cold sapphire]

that would maybe be a few days then

[thorny perch]

Gold is usually where people leave off of promoting but someone continue to higher promotions

[small prism]

7

[thorny perch]

Because they’re mad lads

[neon gorge]

my question is why does legendary look so ass

[raven token]

i dont trust my own math lol

[small prism]

You would be silver 3 if 6 times

[neon gorge]

i hate looking at it

[thorny perch]

Legendary promo doesn’t look too good

[small prism]

Im with you budd

[icy sage]

They need to make it more flashy and bigger

[raven token]

wdym legendary looks dope man

diamond looks too much like silver imo

[quiet cliff]

DRG hardest, longest PS4 trophies.

1. 5 hazard 5 missions in a row from start to finish with no fails
2. All classes to gold promote
3. 100 solo missions
4. 500 missions
5. Haz 5, no downs no resupply (probably do an easy mining and get out)
6. Get 5 error cubes
7. 20 compressed gold

[raven token]

haha

[vale oar]

I have 6 characters worth of promotion and I've spent 81 hours on the game. Should take you around 360 hours to get all 4 to 1 gold star

[small prism]

Agree

[thorny perch]

.5 is easier than you think @quiet cliff

[small prism]

Btw what the hell is compressed gold

[quiet cliff]

Like 5 fucking error cubes

[small prism]

I only got one

[quiet cliff]

Fair. Hence I said... run a mining mission

[neon gorge]

its such an ugly color

[raven token]

its the stuff that makes you rich

[cold sapphire]

you forgot the "host x games"

[quiet cliff]

Could run mining and ZOOOM

[cold sapphire]

i have 7

xD

[thorny perch]

Just run Pe, run scout zip around and let Bosco get all the

[vale oar]

Therw will be a light and gold fragments on the wall. If you did into it there will be a big gold chunk. That's it

[thorny perch]

Ez win

[cold sapphire]

i once got a bittergem, gold chunk and two error helixes in one map

[quiet cliff]

Host 50 missions, yeee

[thorny perch]

👉 👈

[cold sapphire]

100 solo is ez

the haz 5 one isnt too bad either

[neon gorge]

i think that was my last one

[raven token]

after you dig it out that's where the fun part starts 😁

[quiet cliff]

Same with any of the wall minables

But instead, gold

[cold sapphire]

i always play solo, took me like a day

[quiet cliff]

It's like bittergem but bad

[thorny perch]

I think the hardest achievement for me was maybe carpool

[quiet cliff]

[cold sapphire]

oh yea

[small prism]

I assume that its super rare

[cold sapphire]

the silicone harvester one

[neon gorge]

i played like 20 ish solo missions before i started playing multiplayer almost exclusively so it took awhile

[quiet cliff]

I would think swarmers + 4 gunner/driller

[raven token]

that one is quite hard to pull off esp with randos haha

[quiet cliff]

And yall just brrrrr

[small prism]

With randoms its impossible

[cold sapphire]

i hate teammates lmao

[thorny perch]

But getting people to cooperate is hard

And friends is hard to have

[raven token]

the problem is getting your mates on the damn harvester haha

[neon gorge]

i play on discord, you play on ps. We are not the same

[quiet cliff]

I'll be your friend

[thorny perch]

[neon gorge]

dont be friends with snoot bug

[thorny perch]

[neon gorge]

kill loot bugs with me instead

[small prism]

[thorny perch]

Disregard this blasphemy and pet lootbugs

[small prism]

Kill them all

Not only the man, but the women and the children too

[cold sapphire]

[quiet cliff]

Why to play every class

1. You're a better player and understand the roles better
2. Get better at traversing a map
3. 2 active slots on every character
4. Flex

[small prism]

Wait

[small prism]

2 active slots?

[neon gorge]

reminds me of some gunner mains ik

[cold sapphire]

yea

[neon gorge]

idk how u can play so much gunner pre - hurricane and not get bored

[quiet cliff]

Upon promote you unlock the second active perk slot for that class

[cold sapphire]

when you promite

[small prism]

Thats the most dope shit ive saw this week

[raven token]

minigun is pure joy

[cold sapphire]

gunner do be kinda boring gl

[neon gorge]

*burning hell minigun

and bullet hell when im feeling spicy

[raven token]

oh yeah ^^

[raven token]

i hope youve seen this 😂 https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepRockGalactic/comments/s3wbhp/i_present_the_longer_cut_of_drg_lose_yourself/

[small prism]

Wat

The

Rok

And

Stone

[raven token]

hahhah

[cold sapphire]

i wonder what the highest level on ps is rn

highest ive seen so far is 70-80

considering im not playing too much

and im level 50

someone absolute gamer should be around 120

[uneven mist]

Game downloading now....any decent advice for a new player?

[quiet cliff]

Anyone above 30 is a serious player/nolife

Anyone above 60 is a hyper grinder

I've been the highest level in like

Every lobby I've been in so far

[uneven mist]

Ok

I'm guessing I should play solo for a bit to learn the steps before trying coop

[quiet cliff]

Solo is completely different from Co-op

Bosco is honestly a bit of a crutch in some mission types

[uneven mist]

Ahh. Coop it's then

[quiet cliff]

Co-op is fun

And it gets you to understand the mechanics

And the classes roles

I'd just reccomend to avoid doubling up on classes if you can avoid it

Even though it'll happen anyways

[novel storm]

Doubling up is there for fun

[bronze hazel]

Someone want to play with me i just started

[novel storm]

Just make sure you have a driller for the refining missions

[uneven mist]

👍

[quiet cliff]

Driller and Engie

Engie can make bridges or let you run pipes along side walls

[uneven mist]

Any upgrades that are just a waste of materials?

[plain sphinx]

For modifications, overclocks, or other weapons the best advice I have is to just spend the resources and try them all out.

[uneven mist]

@plain sphinx yeah.. that's what I figured

[quiet cliff]

Basically every mod has use in some build

Minus a select few

It's better to pay the cost as you go.

Except for armor

Armor upgrades have a bonus effect that after X amount of mods unlocked

You gain an extra +5 hp

Instead of just skins

Or colors

[raven token]

some basic tips would be: leave no dwarf behind, dont take more than one slot of resupply if theres 4 dwarves, salute often

[quiet cliff]

Also. Buy drinks for your mates

Before and after a mission

And tip lloyd

[raven token]

you can see the teams ammo situation when you tap the button which brings out your laser pointer, they are shown as 4 bars benath the teams hp indicators. each bar represents 25% of the dwarfs total ammo capacity (equipment and grenades included)

[cold sapphire]

i got to level 30 on the second day

[timber needle]

Its not that hard if you really go for max account level

[raven token]

also when you tap the laser pointer button it will bring outliners which can be seen thru walls of your teammates and other important things such as where you can deposit your minerals

[timber needle]

Double xp missions and leveling the classes evenly

Bc the lower levels are smaller

[cold sapphire]

mainly double xp speedruns

[timber needle]

Yea

I prefer to do assignments and progress tho

[cold sapphire]

lower levels dont matter much

youre gonna promote anyway

[cold sapphire]

i dont even have any

aside from the level 50 pickaxe thing

[icy sage]

108 on season pass. They should have 200 or so levels on it. 100 is pretty fast n ez

Or have an OC blank or something every 100 lvls

The credits after 100 are useless I got 650k 🤷‍♀️

[plain sphinx]

it's roughly 100 hours to complete. GSG has stated that they don't expect many people to complete it. The length is fine.

[raven token]

when you get to legendary promotions you will spend millions

[icy sage]

Yeah but they can put in more for the people that play more

[plain sphinx]

The more that is put in the fewer people will complete it due solely to the length of time required.

[quiet cliff]

I mean I assume what's in it will eventually enter the lost equipment/cargo crate pool

This is just 'early access' to these items by playing now

Not that farming or getting cargo crates/lost equipment is hard

There is none

[plain sphinx]

the one that fits your playstyle best

[quiet cliff]

There's like 3/4 'good' ones per gun

And there's 5+ guns

For every class

[mossy hatch]

Whichever one you enjoy using the most

[quiet cliff]

Play with them yourself

[mossy hatch]

Seriously, they're situational

[quiet cliff]

There's also some dumb DRG youtubers out there

[covert valve]

I can link you the Google doc that says the best for each build you're going for

[quiet cliff]

Had a guy reccomend sticky fuel OC for sticky flames build but didn't spec into duration

[plain sphinx]

I mean sure, if you want to self eliminate most of the overclocks because one has some slightly larger numbers.

[mossy hatch]

And they really are whichever you like the most. You can follow what someone else says to do, but it might not be the most fun

[quiet cliff]

Like spinning death.

Is it arguably better than X OC? Maybe not

Is it fun as hell to use? Fuck yeah

You honestly put on an OC and build around it
