[mossy hatch]

You get the satisfaction of a job well done 😉

[drifting sail]

Ikr, 4x 1 mission

[soft sentinel]

That. Have the nemisis drop a lost helmet!

[magic sluice]

it shouldnt always tho, maybe have a chance to drop one

[raw garden]

i like that idea

[soft sentinel]

...Eh.. nah scrap that Idea. Cuz how do the nemesis work. Is there a limit to how many spawn per mission.

[magic sluice]

i havent seen more than 1 per mission

[soft sentinel]

you could potentially stay in a missiom for long time farming them for cosmetics if they respawn

[soft sentinel]

First season 2 mission to do he assignment, had 2 spawn for me.

[magic sluice]

then yea, bad idea

[soft sentinel]

I dunno. So far, I don't like the nemesis. I feel to weak. Like I feel I can't out maneuver their grab, and I havent fought enough to know exactly where to shoot

[crystal wraith]

there is a lot of stuff that trivialises the nemesis but also other stuff where it can rrrrreally screw you over

[soft sentinel]

and they also just seem to come outta nowhere and their Predator "explode everything as a last F U" attack is annoying

[magic sluice]

its the opposite for me, id like it to be buffed.
its strong up close but if you get out of its grab range its effectively just a giant target

[soft sentinel]

[crystal wraith]

at least each class has easy ways to deal with them the problem is imo you have to know that you are gonna fight one, I went into a haz4 earlier solo driller with cryo and microwave and I wasted a metric lootbug ton of ammo to kill it

[soft sentinel]

Plz dont buff

[magic sluice]

id just like it to have a stronger ranged attack

[crystal wraith]

yea

if you get far enough away it feels fairly silly to fight

its like that spoon killer video

[soft sentinel]

Slap a foghorn on it so i know it's coming.

[magic sluice]

but...it already has one

you can hear it from across the map

[crystal wraith]

yea its quite vocal

[mossy hatch]

I've definitely noticed something about fighting the Nemesis, that I'll leave as an exercise to the reader to discover. I have yet to get grabbed by it, and it's always made enough noise to know it's there

[soft sentinel]

then I don't hear it

I need to reconfigure my settings

[crystal wraith]

you should at least hear it talking when its close

that way you can know its gonna grab you without presence perk

also the arms only start moving if you are in range

[soft sentinel]

I literally only wanna hear the sounds of my dwarf yelling Rock and Stone and the chirps of lootables like lost helmets

[magic sluice]

it has its robotic voicelines to lure you in and ones it spots you it has agressive voicelines

[crystal wraith]

imagine knowing there is gonna be a cosmetic item in the map when you spawn 🤤

[mossy hatch]

Aw, but the audio design in this game is fantastic

I want to hear it all

[crystal wraith]

yea I am maybe tripping but I feel like they ramped up the sound quality with the new season too

[mossy hatch]

Even when I'm not playing

[crystal wraith]

also there is voice lines now for weapon inspection?

I could have sworn the dwarfs didnt say anything before

[soft sentinel]

I like the sound design but I only need to hear certain things

[magic sluice]

some weapons always had them, they just dont always play

the smart rifle for example

[mossy hatch]

That's like saying I only need to eat nutrient paste to live, haha. Sure, it gets the job done, but the flavor is what excites

[crystal wraith]

personally I play most of drg muted

[soft sentinel]

I'm not turning the music off, just lower.

Like.. I still hear it. Unless I got spotify on.

[crystal wraith]

drg is a game to me that I cna just turn on netflix and see what pops up in the mission after work

[magic sluice]

exact opposite for me again, its one of the few games i cant play without sound

[crystal wraith]

too repetetive for me to fully focus on the game itself

unless Id be playing 1-2 missions a day

only time I turn on headphones is for EDD playtime with friends or if I really cant find that second battery anywhere

[soft sentinel]

Battery is always withing 20m any direction from the crate

I used to search across the entire cave until i read that

[crystal wraith]

ok but sometimes its really hidden

I knew it was always near it

but if its behind a wall in a different tunnel then yea

I need 3d audio

[soft sentinel]

Now I just search a wide area and make sure it isn't in a cave above/below me

yea I get that. If I don't immediately see it around, I open the map to look for nearby tunnels/caves

Also found Backpack at spawn on a mission once

[crystal wraith]

gotta love stuff like that

[soft sentinel]

literally just the backpack was like 20m from the droppod

It was awesome xD

[crystal wraith]

for every bittergem bosco drops into the void there is one mission where you land right onto a hoarder

[hard haven]

Am I the only one whose game crash a lot since the new season?

[crystal wraith]

no crashes for me personally but other people have mentioned it here I am pretty sure

[gentle gate]

Yea I have not had any crashes yet

[novel storm]

I blame it on my 5 year old PS4 tbh

[sly cape]

I'm seeing quite a few errors to home screen when joining lobbies

On ps5

[soft sentinel]

Anyone got a good loadout for the railgun. They all sound like good options and I casually wasted all my ammo shooting at walls after realizing that it leaves holes in the walls where you fire it

[crimson path]

How does it work on red sugar veins

[soft sentinel]

What do you mean? I hit one partially and it broke a chunk off

[covert valve]

With the burning hell over clock for gunner, what do you think is better, agressive venting or hot bullets?

[trim glade]

Yea the PC has had season 2 for about a month before it released to ps4 I think

[hard furnace]

Aggressive venting for sure! Turns the oc downside into an upside

Lots of bugs? Just keep shooting.
Surrounded? Just keep shooting.
Need to create space, but shield is cooling down? Just keep shooting

[daring steppe]

Any one want to to play

[calm nexus]

Is the playstation version currently bugged? I didn't receive two trophies I should have received today and my supporter edition stuff has been taken away

[modern cobalt]

No, PC got season 2 only a week before console. Before that there was the S2 beta that came out only for PC on April 13th

[amber flint]

thanks you kind saint that helped with my haz 5 escort mission

[main flame]

Is PS4 to PS5 save transfer broken?

[mossy hatch]

Yes. The devs have looked into it and there should be a patch early next week

[main flame]

Thanks!

[idle robin]

Clicking through the different trophies on this site https://psnprofiles.com/trophy/15073-deep-rock-galactic/39-silver-tier-employee

It seems like nobody has been unlocking trophies since the Season 2 update 😴

[terse sinew]

Actually no trophies at all 😅😅 I noticed issues with hazard 5 missions with no trophies unlocked sinced the beginning of season 2… I’ll wait a patch before playing again

[trim glade]

I've had this for a while but does anyone have any solutions for your settings not saving? for instance my server browser always repopulates with all difficulty missions instead of just has 4 and 5 which i normally do.

and also (as well as the one i really wish i could fix) in the gameplay the "prevent late join character duplication" box always unchecks itself

both of these happen when shutting down the game and reopening it.

[mellow crescent]

hi i would like to know if it would be possible to transfer my ps5 progress to pc

[magic sluice]

no, sadly not

[magic sluice]

My luck just hit an all time high

[quasi pawn]

Anyone wanna help me get the achievement for 4 dwarves standing on a silicate harvester and getting 5 kills each?

It’s called “carpool”

[magic sluice]

achievements dont work at the moment

[quasi pawn]

wym?

[magic sluice]

the devs are working on a patch for it, achievements dont currently work

[umbral pasture]

only PS4 version, PS5 trophies unlock normally @quasi pawn

[wise kiln]

Got lucky, myself, last night 😏

[velvet magnet]

You were tested and failed
Bad luck for a millenia

[wise kiln]

'Tis the fate of all Drillers, my friend. F'were it any other class I might've pet each and every last lootbug 😔

[valid crystal]

kill them all

mwahahah

[velvet magnet]

A millenia remains

[dreamy needle]

In which ways can data cells spawn other than the hacksy thing and prospector?

Cause i just found one on the ground

[novel storm]

Router

[dreamy needle]

Whats the router?

[novel storm]

You know, the thing you have to hack before it self destructs

[dreamy needle]

Is it like a random structure that can spawn or is it a mission

[drifting sail]

Random structure spawn... Not sure where lost data cube comes in. You should have seen a Prospector pop up even with environmental kill.

[dreamy needle]

No health bar, but resources did spawn

Which is confusing cause no health bar popped up, and i found a data cell with resources

[drifting sail]

New features. Just had flying rocks phase 2 AND 3 for a drilldozer mission.

[dreamy needle]

Interesting

Im doing one rn and that didnt happen

[drifting sail]

It was like a wave got pulled from an easy 2nd and spiced up 3rd

[dreamy needle]

Interesting

[light notch]

possibly a bug. rocks only come on phase 2, phase 3 is a swarm

[molten smelt]

Anyone know if importing a ps4 save to ps5 is working now?

[covert valve]

Lootbug moshpit!

[drifting sail]

Yes, that was sarcasm.

And OCs are changing my mind about Colette... It MAKES weakspots.

[lime tundra]

it's been fairly consistent on ps since the s2 patch. phase 2 is rocks as usual, but then the start of phase 3 has a small handful of rocks at the start in addition to the usual swarm

no idea if pc side has that

[thin crypt]

Can confirm I’ve had rocks spilling over to wave 3 more often than not

[mint karma]

Did they remove performance mode 120 fps from the ps5?

[umbral pasture]

https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepRockGalactic/comments/uiu6dw/psa_120hz_performance_mode_on_ps5/

[mint karma]

Thanks

[knotty marten]

A new patch for PS4 version is gonna kick in today right?

[terse sinew]

I hope so 😔

[granite lynx]

Are the rocks the same size and behavior as the rocks in phase 2?

[drifting sail]

Yes. Phase 2 appears to be missing its final rock wave, which then occurs in phase 3.

Rocks behave completely normally (outside of showing up at the wrong time) and still hurt like hell.

[granite lynx]

Are you playing on playstation 4 or 5?

[short echo]

Really?

Why anything known about what it's adding/changing?

I mean, I just lost my Internet today, so I couldn't even get it

If I didn't have data on my Phone I couldn't even check in here... 😅

At least I can still play solo and do some Assignments, though I hope I don't miss my weeklies because of this... They do require a properly working Internet connection :/

[granite lynx]

Not today - we are working on getting it out as soon as possible . Ps is a bit tricky to patch to.

[short echo]

That's understandable.

And I'm totally fine with waiting. 👍🏻

It just surprised me, since the big Season 2 update just came out, so I didn't expect any Patches to come so quickly... That's all.

I'm POSITIVELY surprised 😁

[quaint zinc]

Manda best dev ever

[valid crystal]

had it too and it spiced up the phase a lot lmao

[drifting sail]

Ps4.

Tbh, rando rocks was kinda fun.

[lime tundra]

yeah behavior is same as usual other than timing. not entirely sure if it's just one wave or not, but there's a small number in phase 3

I'm playing ps4 ver on ps5, but it's all been other people's games I'm joining so no idea what system the host is on

[dire kite]

Hey

[gloomy apex]

Yall think level 353 is legit?

[velvet magnet]

Not really

[lofty reef]

I have encountered a lot of high levels and drg for PS4 has only been out for like 2 months

[velvet magnet]

5 actually

Came out about as quick as 2022

[drifting sail]

353 probably, I'm almost lvl200 at playing sometimes

[wise kiln]

Probably legit. Usually anything hacked is an outrageous number like 20,000 and their Dwarves are all whatever the red frame is, legendary?

[magic sluice]

yes it is, i've only been playing since season 1 and im over 200 so yea, 350 is easily possible

[gloomy apex]

Oki doki

[magic sluice]

id say anything under 1000 is probably legit, anything over most likely isnt

[wise kiln]

Dwarves are next level contortionists 👀

[frigid adder]

Does the necro-thermal catalyst for the coil gun work? Or am i not noticing it?

[dire kite]

Is anyone lookin to play

Nobody has said a thing on the lfg playstation chat room

[amber flint]

it does but its not a huge visual, like aggressive venting

Id recommend the electric trails

[fluid echo]

anyone else having more glitches than usual or could it just be a latency issue

eg falling through the map more often, being completely unable to move after being revived, passive perks outright not working despite being equipped (for a singular mission), and lastly anything mined not dropping anything (such as nitra, red sugar, etc)

on ps5 version

[amber flint]

yes, and on ps4

that last one you posted only happened once to me , but was very irritating

[fluid echo]

well yeah it pretty much breaks the game

[hard furnace]

This has occurred to me on the PS5 version of the game. I believe I was hosting a cross play instance with PS4 players at the time, but I'm not sure about that. If it occurs again I'll submit a report in jira

[fluid echo]

oh and another one is the terrain scanner just closing itself randomly

often

[frigid adder]

Is it good tho?

[amber flint]

I have a hard time burning things with the new patch, and with the fire mini gun (burning hell) the basic grunts die so I dont need the aoe on the coil gun

maybe if I was playing with scout with the fire crossbow, it could do some work 🤷‍♂️

[novel storm]

Yes

[amber flint]

Can people stop kicking me from the lobby pls ... make a private lobby if you want run with your boys

[drifting sail]

Are you joining haz4 content on an unpromoted dwarf?

[light notch]

That's not a prerequisite. Being unpromoted isn't a sign of lack of skill

[amber flint]

nah it haz 5 and im promoted, Im just not level 300 causes I dont no life this game

I would host but I dont want to wait years for one game, its whatever I just wish those people would use this discord and say X level and above required. instead of making a public lobby and kicking low levels

[wise kiln]

Why would it take long to matchmake one Haz 5 game? 🤔

[amber flint]

when you find the answer to that tell me

[wise kiln]

I mean, I don't really need to know the answer, the only Haz 5 I ever play is when I do the EDD, I was just curious.

[amber flint]

oh, ya simply no one joins for atleast 12 -15 minutes most times. maybe I'll just play edds

[wise kiln]

Fair. Yeah, only solution I can think of to an issue of being kicked for no discernable reason in pubs is to 1. host the game yourself, or 2. play with friends.

[drifting sail]

Generally a good indicator you're not ready. For every competent newbie there's a couple dozen drunken greenbeards.

But idk why they keep getting kicked - usually it takes a few consecutive cases of stupid deaths for that in haz5.

[quaint zinc]

Vy’Keen are superior

[drifting sail]

Hirk is a simp.

[drifting sail]

If you want a fast haz5 group, wait for a double xp mission. Not many random masochists, but I get a full mission every 2xp.

[novel storm]

You mean hosting it?

[drifting sail]

Host or join, almost always full in any case.

[novel storm]

Because if I join hazard 5 double xp it is 9/10 cheaters

[drifting sail]

Don't join the ones with weird timers

Make sure it's a mission actually on the scanner if you want to avoid that crap.

[novel storm]

Even with a normal timer it happens

Kinda lame, might as well not play honestly

[drifting sail]

Yeah, not much point in levels after first promotion other than indicating how much you play...

[frigid adder]

Damn

I kinda wanted to use it

[frigid adder]

I join haz 4 with unpromoted dwarves all the time

[dusty stump]

Bless this new resource change that allows me to buy cosmetics without spending weapon upgrade materials

[frigid adder]

Yes it's really awesome

Although i do think it shouldn't be as rare

[dusty stump]

It does seem pretty rare

[frigid adder]

I already spent half of what the mastery gave me

[dusty stump]

I spent 300 on an outfit by accident but at least it's an ok one

When it said "Phazyonite [buy]" I hit the button to see if it was taking me to an MTX or whatnot, rather than buying it with it

Since I hadn't read the patch notes

[frigid adder]

I also didn't know but i'm super careful with resources in general

i did craft the wrong overclock today tho

Misclick

[dusty stump]

Oh, cosmetic mastery must have been how I had so much

[frigid adder]

Yes

It works retroactively

i got to level 19 as soon as i opened the game

[clever trail]

U talking bout nms, cos korvax is best

[soft sentinel]

why am I getting data rack missions at the begining of the season, also am I screwing myself by rerolling them cuz I be rerolling those to get stuff that'll up my level on the pass

[novel storm]

Because you'll need to complete the data rack missions to complete the cosmetic tree, better to do it now

[soft sentinel]

Hm. I'll start doing them, tbh I didnt finish the tree last season because I didnt like the look of the guns

[light sun]

Anyone else have their glyphid slammer supporter mug missing after the update? I bought the supporter dlc last month and now the beer mug is gone. Just the normal mug.

[novel storm]

Same

[light sun]

😦

Hope it is patched. I love the mug

[cobalt pier]

Anyone down for drg i can speak english and german and please no kiddos

[light notch]

#lfg-playstation

[cobalt pier]

Whats that

Oh thx

[raw garden]

any idea if we can get the .5 difficulty increases in the base game without mods? (this is ofcourse aimed at devs) i don't see mods coming to consoles any time soon so this would be cool to have

[magic sluice]

its already used in the deep dives, what reason would there be for it to be available in normal missions?

[quaint zinc]

SILENCE MACHINE

[modern cobalt]

Just had a really weird glitch where our team just fell through the drop pod floor at the end of a salvage mission. Stopped us from completing it, we'd just fall through to the drill bit at the bottom of it.

[idle robin]

Super easy to get sub-45 minutes solo Deep Dive this week....aaaaaand the Trophies still don't work on PS4

And I'm guessing they're not gonna be retroactively granted when/if it's fixed

[hard furnace]

Based on how it worked when they fixed the PS5 ones, you'll probably have to finish a deep dive again. You won't need to speed run one tho

[outer cosmos]

Rock n stone

[late sinew]

Sry, I'm not 100% sure, but I think the under 45 min trophy does not "retro-check", so you will have to do it again. Most trophies check the requirements after completing a mission, but I don't think thats one of them.

[magic sluice]

your fastest deep dive times are kept track off, so they probably work retroactively

[terse sinew]

Do we have an idea when the patch will occur for PS4 trophies ? Maybe it’s less prioritary compared to other issues. Thanks

[brisk dirge]

Is there a text chat in the current version?

[magic sluice]

yes

[radiant plover]

What is the issue with trophies rn?

[terse sinew]

They dont pop if you are playing on PS4. PS5 seems to be ok.

[radiant plover]

Ah aight cheers

[main flame]

Any ETA on the patch and does it fix the PS5 save import? I couldn’t import my PS4 saves to my PS5

[jolly stratus]

Has anyone else had their supporter status kinda bug out after the launch of S2?

Like I have the pickaxe and armor colors but the slammer cup and symbol are missing

[mossy hatch]

You're not alone. And it's not the first time in DRG's history that an update has caused the Supporter DLC to act funny. The devs'll get it fixed up before too long, I'm sure, but it's also a low-priority bug

[elfin thorn]

are the crashes and disconnects linked to Complexity/Length? bigger mission types like Escort Duty/Industrial Sabotage combined with that seems to be hardest to launch correctly without anyone stopping it crashing, for me and my mates anyway...

[carmine cliff]

Well it's the first update on ps4 aside from patches

So makes sense it'll start the bug again

[mossy hatch]

Not necessarily. I have no idea about how the DLC license validation works to speculate on why or how it could happen now or ever again; all I can say for sure is that it has happened before due to an update, and it's been fixed before too long. It might even be easier and quicker to fix this time given previous experience

[carmine cliff]

Also is anyone else having the bug where they can't see any of the seasonal cosmetics

I tried to post it to jira but the ui wouldn't work on my phone

And couldn't post or even hardly tgpe

[amber flint]

yes, but only in the menu and for the wearable armor ones

but they work in game when you equip it

[carmine cliff]

Yup

They just won't render when i hover over

[inland sigil]

The jiggle weights on the flowing fork are completely out of control lol

[inner sapphire]

WORST CONSOLE

[carmine cliff]

True

[dreamy needle]

What does smart stout do?

[mossy hatch]

Makes ya smart

[dreamy needle]

But does it do anything

[mossy hatch]

Functionally, it works in the same way as every other "fun" beer

[dreamy needle]

What are its affects

[mossy hatch]

It makes ya smart, on a very temporary basis

[dreamy needle]

Ok then

[mossy hatch]

All the "fun" beers are way more interesting to try for yourself than to just read about

[dreamy needle]

Well i drank it and nothing happened :P

[mossy hatch]

Ah! Well then:
||Your dwarf should say one of a few unique Smart Stout voice lines after you drink it.||

[dreamy needle]

Ahh, no wonder i didnt hear it. I listen to podcasts while i play and turned everything down

[mossy hatch]

That'll do it! 😆

[white mango]

Today my 2 companions got mutiple bluescreens in the same mission

[frigid adder]

So true

[robust stratus]

Is there an issue with the trophies on drg on ps4?

[frigid adder]

Yes

You can't get any right now

[robust stratus]

Thought that. Knew I had about 16 or 17 missions in a row without kicking a barrel and still didn't have the trophy

[open vault]

Every time I disconnect from the wifi while being in a "online server" the game immediately blue screens and crashes, and yes PS4

[velvet tide]

Anyone elses trophy not popping when playing on PS4?

[mossy hatch]

Look up, even just a little, haha

I'm sure it'll be fixed before too long

[open vault]

And now I have broken Dreadnought AI as Scout...

[hard furnace]

Am I crazy or has haz 4 been more difficult lately

I usually do fine but tonight my friends and I failed like 3/5 missions

[mossy hatch]

I haven't played a ton on Haz 4 (probably more 3 and 5 so far), but things feel about as I'd expect them. But Haz levels can feel weird sometimes; given the procedural nature of the caves and spawns, sometimes a 3 or a 5 can feel more like a 4 and vice versa

[novel storm]

Yea sometimes haz5 feels super easy others it feels like Dark Souls

[open vault]

I remember being a greenbeard and joining a Haz5 Dreadnought mission, it was nightmarish tbh but I lasted longer than a player rank 10 probably should

[dusty stump]

I've been struggling to figure out how to disable my outgoing voice audio outside of just muting my controller

[granite lynx]

As soon as we get it to work. Hopefully sometime this week.

[grave oriole]

I'm playing a Haz 3 Point Extraction Mission with my team right now and we're dealing with never ending enemies, 2 bulk detonators and a Dreadnought spawn

[novel storm]

Point extraction increases the frequency of waves over time, snowballing if you spend too long in the mission

So it's a test of speed

[open vault]

Fact ☝️

[grave oriole]

It happened 5 mins in

[novel storm]

At around 5 minutes you get a swarm I think

Not sure if the dreadnought stops the swarms from spawning

[grave oriole]

Ah I see okay thanks

[elfin thorn]

Nope. Yesterday in a Hazard 3 Aquarq mission 3/3 (complexity/length) we had constant waves followed by swarms halfway through. Then a Dreadnought spawns followed by a swarm, followed by a Detonator.
Everyone kept asking me "come on, are you sure this is Haz 3?! stop joshing!"

I'm also somewhat positive the Dread was high on Meth given the speed it kept going from one end of the room to the the other... couldnt kite very well like usual...

My nerves are shot!

[elfin thorn]

Ah you had that too I see... crazy eh?

[grave oriole]

Yes, we managed to take out one of the detonators before we got overwhelmed, managed to survive 38mins though

we barely dented the Dreadnought

Dropped a resupply on it but all it did was crack the armor

We were also getting never ending Menace spawns which was really messing with us because none of us were equipped to deal with long range

Within the first 3 mins I took out 3 Menaces that all spawned near the mine head for some reason

[topaz nexus]

Sounds fun

[umbral pasture]

I had this recently, just constant influx of enemies from everywhere. We made it just barely

[drifting sail]

Haha, I dropped into a haz3 day before yesterday to chill for a mission and got 3x bulk dets. Not what I was expecting.

I like how detonators clear the field when they go, can solve so many problems in one go.

[ebon frost]

I remember when the drilldozer went through a detonator in haz4. I failed instantly.

[magic sluice]

small tip for anyone who's having trouble dealing with the "turret clusters" on rival presence missions:
you can dig under the turret controller and hack it from there, it'll keep you save from the brust turrets and most of the time the energy shield turrets will leave you alone aswell

[drifting sail]

It doesn't drop when undermined tho, iirc, so drill with care.

[magic sluice]

i just had all 3 of my teammates die trying to hack it because they just stood in the open and got killed pretty much instantly

best to destroy any shield turrets close to the controller aswell, so they just push your around cause their shields reach underground aswell

[drifting sail]

We need a Nemesis emoji.

[magic sluice]

yes we do

[ebon frost]

Any tip of where to aim at nemesis

[drifting sail]

Also no, shield turrets don't go deep enough to be an issue.

[drifting sail]

Go for the eye.

[magic sluice]

aim at the glowing bits and its eye, you can also shoot its top part so the armor falls off and revealse more weakpoints

[ebon frost]

Thx

[magic sluice]

depends on how deep you dig, i had them be a problem a few times

[drifting sail]

Mostly just aim from far away. Slow af but that grab is murder.

[magic sluice]

yea, stay as far away from it as you can and just fire everything you had at it

[drifting sail]

Yeah, ofc go deep enough, but you can totally ignore them was my point.

[magic sluice]

yea, generally going under is the way to go when dealing with turret clusters

[drifting sail]

Colette's radioactive OC proc has been fantastic against Nemesis, if any Drillers get it. Add on the slow effect and axes to the eye and I feel pretty comfortable.

Haven't tried the Engineer beam, but I bet it melts Nemesis.

[magic sluice]

its pretty decent if you keep on the weakpoints

[drifting sail]

I've got the OC that boosts damage but makes you unload the whole charge on, but they won't spawn.

...I also don't play much engineer.

[ebon frost]

Yea, even if it said that he is the best class to play with. It is still boring.

[magic sluice]

engineer is a bit iffy yea, but give him fat boy and he becomes the most fun class

[drifting sail]

Can't beat Driller. Something about making your own bunkers... And C4.

Driller > Scout > Gunner > Engineer for my fun scale.

[magic sluice]

fatboy is just C4 with range and a sprinkle of warcrime

[drifting sail]

Yes, and your team will hate you for it.

[magic sluice]

not if you're running friendly

[drifting sail]

Still a pain in the nuts for cavitation, and dropping damage isn't great either.

Fun solo weapon.

But engineer is such a teamwork class... Meh.

[magic sluice]

generally class fun factor just comes down to what you like, i personally think gunner is the most fun, followed by scout, engi and driller share last place

[drifting sail]

Gunner is turret defense game

[undone junco]

Me too

I finish deep dive in 42:30 but no trophy popping

And I got 3000 points in 90 kicks but no trophy either

Trophies are broken rn

[wise kiln]

Oof, commiserations 😅 I would've looked up the issue after the first trophy didn't pop. In any case, GSG (the devs) are working on a fix for PS4 players 👍

[wise kiln]

Smart! I was thinking the other day, "what's even the point of hacking this thing when it's surrounded by turrets?" I ended up destroying all of them instead 😐

Also, I suck at the new hacking thing. Timing is always off 🤦‍♂️

[magic sluice]

you just need to get used to it, its still hard but it gets easier if you do it more often

[velvet magnet]

Here's a timing tip

As soon as the green light reaches the dot before the one you want to cut press R2

You gotta pre fire it

[errant ice]

[magic sluice]

why do so many drillers i see lately not use their drills? i see so many usuing their pickaxe to dig through dirt tunnels

[covert valve]

Anyone wana play drg?

[knotty marten]

Thats weird

I always make sure to use my drill at any good opportunities

For myself and to aid my pals

[magic sluice]

yea same, but i just had a team with 2 drillers, one a 3 star the other a 2 star, neither used their drills to dig through dirt

[lime tundra]

have you tried making engineer bunkers? (they got plenty of booms too with grenade launcher too) driller and engie are my two favorite classes because they have the most creativity available, driller from reshaping terrain and engie from creating terrain

engie ability to make tree forts along with path altering with bug repellent is quite fun

definitely not a teamwork only class either

we'll ignore that gunner is the class I ended up playing the most because it's the laziest at dealing with edds, but I definitely like the creativity of driller/engie more

[magic sluice]

every class has their own roles and advantages, it depends on what you want and how you like to play.
driller is great at reaching places and making the terrain how he wants it, he also packs a decent punch in firepower.
engineer is great at defending things and decent at reaching places, his secondaries always pack quite a punch too.
gunner is by far the worst at reaching places and general mobility, but he makes up for it with his extreme firepower and survivability.
scout is the most mobile by far but cant help the team get around, he can survive huge swarms for a long time thanks to his mobility but lacks strong firepower

[wise kiln]

It seems that way.

[drifting sail]

And then gunner shoots down the "branch" holding you to get the bugs walking up.

Only the scout lived.

I really need to get better about clipping some of these games... DRG makes for some hilarious plays.

[lime tundra]

oh, that's an F

I've never actually had anyone accidentally pop my tree forts before though def have had people do it intentionally. at least it was after the PE countdown finished so I imagine they were having fun when it didn't matter anymore

I am kinda paranoid about it though and try to make the base pretty thick and repair it regularly

didn't want to get into that exact situation of falling into a pit of hungry bugs because the branch broke

[drifting sail]

I love engineer trees over Doretta during phase 2. Rocks cause no terrain damage, so you save so much ammo with them harmlessly detonating overhead.

[carmine cliff]

Gunner is great at reaching places but he does it slowly and securely

There are some spots a driller could never get up to and some spots an engineer can't get to but a gunner can cheaply and safely

[topaz nexus]

scout

[carmine cliff]

They're all very different modes of movement

[amber flint]

I disagree , scout

[carmine cliff]

Notice how i didn't bring up scout cause ofc he can reach anywhere

[topaz nexus]

Also any class can get to point A to point B with a very skilled player

[amber flint]

fall in a pit an see how useful a zip line is over platforms or drills

[carmine cliff]

It's actually very useful cause you can use them as safety nets to cancel fall dmg

But not very reactionary

[topaz nexus]

Hover boots

[amber flint]

You have to dig out, like no one here play refinery and the morkite isnt in a 30m deep hole

[carmine cliff]

But yeah i could absolutely not reach a branch with a cargo crate earlier today while playing engine because of the sheer height of it i simply couldn't produce enough platforms to scale the wall even after resupplying twice

Gunner got me up there in a couple mins

[amber flint]

you fall in a hole during a wave as a gunner...have fun

[carmine cliff]

Gunner can pretty easily hold a line like that

Gunner is slow but manuverable it just isn't quick reactionary and free form

[topaz nexus]

Just parkour bro

Mine jump platform = fun

[amber flint]

anyway...all the classes are nice

[topaz nexus]

Yep

Played long enough that all four can do just fine without the other

[carmine cliff]

I can play all of them well but i don't like playing scout

I'm really good at engie and gunner and driller so i stick with those guys

[topaz nexus]

[carmine cliff]

I unlocked the m100 only for it do less at the same range compared to engies auto shotgun

It's very funny for sniping grunts but i cannot stand playing scout and having basically nerf guns unlocked

[drifting sail]

Lies. I can mine the Nitra on the roof, but it takes more fuel than it's worth.
Practice on stalactite drop pods...

[carmine cliff]

Oh hey man wasn't expecting to see you here

[drifting sail]

Only in the best free psplus game ever.

[carmine cliff]

True

[wise kiln]

I wish there was a 'Mark All As Read' option for weapon cosmetics; getting the predator skin from the seasonal rewards and having it applied 24x is 😑

[carmine cliff]

True

[hollow umbra]

I'm guessing I can't refund a DLC purchase.

[sharp oak]

Yeah not sure if refunds apply to DLC

At least on Steam

[hollow umbra]

Looks like I can't. That's a shame. I wish I had waited to buy the bigger DLC pack now that it's on sale. >.>;

[drifting sail]

Think of it as better supporting a good game.

[wise kiln]

Oh snap, didn't realize it was on sale 🤔😏 might have to finally dip into the DRG DLC.

[carmine cliff]

Yeah it sucks whenever that happens

[hollow umbra]

I mean, sure, but if I had waited a couple days I could have given them more money and got more stuff so it would have been a win-win.

[carmine cliff]

I did that with control

I bought it for 40 bucks 2 months before it was free

[drifting sail]

F

[hollow umbra]

I just wish they'd put the individual packs on sale rather than just the big bundle. I can't justify buying it since I own the Dark Future and Megacorp now.

[drifting sail]

I want another big bundle for the DLCs not in the supporter pack.

And I want a hat for Steev.

[quaint zinc]

I want a gas mask with NVGs in the game for my Scout.

[drifting sail]

They made that Bane mask a beard slot, finally. Best option atm.

Can use one of the techy half helmets or eyepieces.

[quaint zinc]

Going full Borg, I see

[main flame]

Awesome thanks!

[wise kiln]

ROCK AND STOOOOOOOOOOOONNNEEEE!!!!

[lone talon]

DRG is literally always crashing (CE-34878-0) upon start on my PS4 Pro, is anyone facing the same issue and know how to fix it? Already tried reinstalling, rebuilding database, factory reset, nothing seems to work; all other games are working perfectly.

[drifting sail]

I think those damn sandsharks are the worst form of grabbers. Silent and relentless.

[covert valve]

Same here I just got that last night

That's BS I bought it last night at Full price hours before the discount

[covert valve]

Well I contacted playstation support and got 2 vouchers for $10 :)

[hallow seal]

Elite deep dives anyone

[hollow umbra]

How did you manage to contact them? The avenue I tried was completely unhelpful.

[lofty reef]

Could be corrupted data

[covert valve]

Contact support leads to a chatbot that leads to a person

There's steps to go through I'm not going to post every step

[amber flint]

I just played like a monster in a haz 5 pub, just to die after 30 minutes. The worst part is it feels like it's my fault, since I knew it I when down we were probably dont for

Killed two nemesis, and the third got me

[true dawn]

Hey did anybody else lose their supporter badge and supporter glyphid slammer recently?

I restored my licenses and it still isn’t showing up

[woeful marsh]

Yeah I did as well

But I don't know if there's a fix yet

[paper gazelle]

Is anybody having trouble with the abyss bar trophies? They just don't pop for me

[inland sigil]

anyone know why the glyphid slammers aren’t gold anymore once you’ve bought the supporter pack

[novel storm]

Bugged

[terse sinew]

All the trophies on PS4 are currently bugged. We dont know if they will be rétroactive or not. Still waiting for a patch but we have no idea when it will occur…

[paper gazelle]

You mean all, even the regular ones? Should I avoid promoting dwarves to not bug out the trophies?

[terse sinew]

Yes. It starts with the beginning of the season 2. For example, a friend starts playing the game last week end and the trophy associated with the first mission didnt pop. Other ones also. From my side, trophies associated with Haz5 didnt pop also… I prefer to wait for a patch before promoting my dwarves to Silver. We never know. I Hope it will be fixed very soon 🙏

[mossy hatch]

Trophies should (for the most part) be retroactively applied once they get fixed. Progress is tracked and saved, and you'll only need to trigger an update to that tracked progress to have the trophy trigger.

For example the trophy for completing 100 solo missions: you're on 80 out of 100 solo missions complete right now. You play 21 more solo missions and are now at 101 out of 100 complete, but the trophy didn't pop due to the bug. Once the patch comes out, you'll only need to complete 1 more solo mission to update your progress, at which point the system will recognize that you're at 102 solo missions out of 100 complete and trigger the trophy

You don't need to avoid promoting, but you may have to perform another promotion after the patch for the trophy to trigger

[novel storm]

My friend got the game yesterday

What about the approved greenbeard trophy

"Complete your first assignment"
I think he is about to complete it, does it already apply retroactively or does he need to take any assignment

[lone talon]

Any ideia how can I fix this?

[terse sinew]

That a a good question ! If this first trophy is really Linked/codded to the first assignment, it could be problematic because he dont be able to do this first assignment anymore. It could be possible but by considering a new save 🤔

[worn harness]

New Patch is out!

---

**Included fixes:
**
Crossgen save transfer (PS4 to PS5) now works again
Supporter pack chat icon and beer now works again
Several important crashfixes.

---

This is the patch that we tried getting out last friday, but because of some problems that arose it got delayed.
PS5 and PS4 version is now on the same patch as the other platforms.

🚨 The fix for the issue with PS4 trophies is being tested right now and should be ready for the next patch 🚨

[open vault]

It is probably some form of corrupted data, as for what I have no idea, but for every trophy I have ever gotten from the games day 1 release I have gotten them when the progress of the tracking updated(happened once), as for others I got them immediately, so I don't know what is the problem or how the game is tracking/updating said data, all I know is that I'm usually offline more playing but that shouldn't cause any problems, but when Season 2 hit everytime I turn off my wifi when I was playing drg on online the game crashes/blue screens, and it happened last night when I switched back to offline

[umbral pasture]

This is extremely important -- Xbox has its own emoji on here but PlayStation does not. Can we have one added? https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/717717666726543450.webp?size=44&quality=lossless

[void moon]

[velvet magnet]

facepalm

[feral wave]

Thank you for the update :).

[grave oriole]

Trophies may not be back yet but I just bought the Ultimate upgrade because I love the game

[feral wave]

Do you happen to know if the fix will be retroactive or we will have to redo the requirements for any trophies that glitched?

[worn harness]

The ones that require you to collect/promote/kill/complete missions and assignments should be retroactive when you complete the trigger requirement once more so if you've completed 201 solo missions without getting the trophy it should be rewarded if you complete one more solo mission.

Non-retroactive trophies is trophies like barrel hoop game, farmer, that's not how you play this game etc. so one time trigger trophies or trophies that reset your progress when you fail the requirement.

[feral wave]

Cool, thank you, I have a save from before promoting my last dwarf to Gold 1 so I'll just restore that and re-promote him when the Patch arrives :).

[grave oriole]

I unfortunately do not have a save before I promoted my second dwarf, can I still get the Corporate Climber trophy if I upgrade a 3rd

[open vault]

Also what about for the 3000 Barrel Points...

[grave oriole]

oh wait it was mentioned

[open vault]

Cause if not I'm making a deal with the devil

[magic sluice]

you can technically cheese it by throwing cups into the hoop, they count for 1 point each

it'd just take a while

[grave oriole]

I saw someone else say that the ball below the bar gives you 5 or 10 points but I haven't tested it myself

[magic sluice]

it counts 1 aswell

[open vault]

On god

Cause last weekend I got 2985 points and just hit 100, and do they actually count to it

[fallow willow]

nightgowns on playstation? how can i find it? event or drop and is it an armor layer? looks so nice…

[drifting sail]

Fail a mission.

[grave oriole]

^

Just fail a mission and you gain the gown, but I noticed when playing with friends that using any of the terminals gives back the armor you were wearing

[drifting sail]

Temporary badge of shame

[grave oriole]

Wear it with honor instead

[drifting sail]

There is no honor in those underwear

[fallow willow]

ah ok, tyvm. so it’s not an cosmetic

[grave oriole]

Unfortunately not

[drifting sail]

I had hoped it would be a permanent unlock... Maybe someday. When we get a hat for Steev.

[fallow willow]

i just popped in an mission and the other 3 guys was wearing it. i instantly thought i missed something in the game…

[grave oriole]

Need cosmetics for Steeve so my friends will stop shooting them

[drifting sail]

That will never happen, but we can at least make them stop earlier. Like when I play in thr DLC bugsuit lol

[buoyant oak]

Anyone up for the achivement of 4 dwarwes on silicate extractor with 5 Kills?

[frigid adder]

I promoted my third dwarf and logically i didnt get the achievement

[lofty reef]

How do you drop drinks that you don’t want to drink on PlayStation

[frigid adder]

Will i get it once the fix comes out

[thin crypt]

Drop them into your gullet

[thorny perch]

Drink it

[carmine cliff]

Put your hand in the hoop

[terse sinew]

Thanks Axel for your answer ! Will you for it to fix some « group » trophies ? By this, I mean some Times it’s just the host that unlock the trophy. For example, for the « Carpool » trophy, one of the team got it and the others dont. Do you have an explanation ? This occur before the launching of the season 2 (and bugged trophies). Can we expect that the trophy will pop with the patch or do we have to try it again ? Thanks ⛏

[frigid adder]

Do you know?

[hot glacier]

Can PS4 version play with PS5 version

Anyone know?

[covert valve]

Yes

In on ps5 and I can tell who has a ps4 based on the loading screen lol

[hot glacier]

Haha, alright thank you 🐸👍

When i try to join my friend whos on ps4, it says “connection lost Failed to join server”

Im on ps5

?

[heavy cloak]

Carpool trophy requires all 4 to be on a harvester AND then whoever needs the trophy has to kill 5 enemies. It won‘t unlock for all if one gets 5 kills from what i remember

[terse sinew]

Ok it’s clear now ! The One who had the trophy jumped from the harvester when it popped 😅 He should stay on it and keep spamming bugs in order to have the trophy popping for all of us

[hallow dirge]

Anyone have any idea what the updates that were out today were for?

[green barn]

Probably the fixes

[vast trench]

I know the first one today was to bring it mostly up to the PC's current patch. But there was one like 5 minutes ago im not sure about yet

[open vault]

Update 1.14 just dropped within 5 hours, cause last time I was connected with the wifi was bout 5 hours ago

[vast trench]

now there's a 1.15 patch just now

[open vault]

Wtf

[fallow willow]

i’m on 1.14 just now

[open vault]

Earlier it was 1.13 for me '-'

1.14 was it for me, for now...

[vast trench]

I guess the numbers are different for people

i'm on PS5 by the way

[open vault]

PS4 for me

[green barn]

Ps4 here is on 1.14 rn

[open vault]

Ye

[hard furnace]

PS5 is on 1.0.015

[worn harness]

New patch out!
01.14 for ps4 fixed the trophies
01.000.015 updated ps5 to be compatible with ps4 version.
The actual version of the game can be found in-game (seen in startscreen and main menu)
Happy trophy hunting PS4 buddies ❤

[open vault]

God bless the dev team

[raw garden]

you might wanna pin these update comments axel

to make it easy for others as well

[light notch]

Now the trophies are even more broken

I bet 5 blackout stouts

[open vault]

[raw garden]

[light notch]

||/s||

[green barn]

Thanks you so much i was wondering why i dont get the trhophie call Deep For Speed

[raw garden]

the trophies are only broken on ps4 tho. on ps5 they worked fine for us the past days

but my buddy had a lot of crashes

[vast trench]

[raw garden]

we're gonna test if its better in a bit with the new patch

[worn harness]

There's a three day weekend coming up in Denmark so thought we should get it out for you before we take some time off
Cya next week!

[terse sinew]

Thanks a lot !!

[raw garden]

good stuff. thanks axel

enjoy your weekend

[worn harness]

Np

[gritty escarp]

Was the bug with mining not giving resources fixed?

I get nothing in my bag when i mine with axe, picking up minerals works fine

[quaint zinc]

Axel best dev ever, keeps the wheels turning at GSG.

[frigid adder]

What happens if i promoted my third miner before the fix? Am i locked out of it forever now?

[mossy hatch]

No. Next promotion will update your progress, and when your progress updates any relevant trophies should trigger

[frigid adder]

Oh thank god

thanks for the info

I'm relieved

[mossy hatch]

Trophies wouldn't trigger, but progress has been tracked all along (for trophies that track progress, one-offs like the barrel game trophy don't have progress to track as you must complete them in one attempt). Now that triggers are working again, all it takes is a progress update to cause the trophy to trigger

[frigid adder]

That's so awesome

I wouldn't mind having to redo some trophies but being locked out of them sounds pretty bad

fortunately it's not the case

[hard furnace]

So is this recent patch only the trophy and compatability fixes? Or are the bug fixes recently released on steam included as well?

From May 5

[umbral pasture]

From my understanding only what you see in the patch notes in this channel.

[wooden owl]

Gimme some of your cobbler

[white mango]

I just got the update and got my first bluescreen . When the mission startted . The mule was not deployed it went away with the pod .

[wise kiln]

Is there a way to reset loadouts on PlayStation? Or do you have to customize it as is?

[elder swallow]

the pod took Molly

[drifting sail]

Idk wtf is wrong with people. Host decides to kick me after they dropped Kursite down a pit several times and failed Machine Event, other dwarves die and I tag red sugar because their health is low.
Still the rest of the mission to go anyway...

A new name on block list... But why?

[wise kiln]

Some people are just not having a good day, I'd imagine.

[quaint zinc]

You didn’t call dibs on it, It’s mine.

[wooden owl]

Fine, I call dibs :)

[drifting sail]

A good cobbler is dear to my sole.

[wise kiln]

Apple crisp with vanilla ice cream and maybe some salted caramel drizzled on top.

[covert valve]

I've been troll kicked a few times. It made me want to host so I don't have to worry about it. What's worst is losing connection because there's no incentive of receiving a percent of the loot.

[late mica]

I wish i could download audio mods on console

[amber flint]

See what I mean about host now, they just kick randomly it seems some times

[drifting sail]

Yes, wish D/C got treated like fail, at least.

I host sometimes, but I first try to join existing missions rather than dilute the pool. Usually rocks my stones, but sometimes you get schist instead of what you take for granite.

[thin crypt]

90% of the times I kick someone it’s because I’ve got a friend coming in and the lobbies full up

Noticed an influx lately of griefing drillers and extraordinarily button happy greenbeards that ignore the chat which catch a kick as well

[drifting sail]

C4 at drop pod is a bad sign, unless theres Praetorians RIGHT THERE.
Which also is a bad sign, really.

[thin crypt]

Gunner put a shield on the drop pod ramp

DRILLER PUT A C4 IN THE SHIELD

[drifting sail]

Is the Scout fast enough to make it in?

[thin crypt]

special powder scout exists in a plane of existence beyond the constraints of time and speed

[grave oriole]

Are PlayStation trophies still bugged

just finished a match with a friend and they got the Designated Decoy trophy

[thin crypt]

They should be working again, patch just came out this afternoon

[grave oriole]

Thank you for that information

[green barn]

They are totally working

I just get my "veteran Diver"

[amber flint]

when even 50% resist to explosions cant save you 👀

[covert valve]

Im loving these new voice lines lmfao

[knotty marten]

Me too

[novel storm]

🤡

[magic sluice]

yea a lot of button happy greenbeards, if they ignore the chat they catch a nuke to the face, thats as easy as it is

im not someone who likes team killing, but if they dont listen they have to learn somehow, and since i cant kick them after the main objective is done teamkilling is the only option

[raw garden]

yeah we do the exact same thing. people who are trolling or not being a teamplayer just get kicked

no need to feel bad about that lol

[gentle gate]

has anyone had DRG crash on ps5 on a drilldozer mission?

[drifting sail]

Double dippers who call down ammo away from the group are the ones I insta-kick, no questions asked.

Second greenbeard in haz4 too... Backpack only carries one at a time.

[magic sluice]

calling a supply far away from the team on purpose is shitty, but sometimes you get separated from the team and have no ammo left, so you kinda have no choice but to call one in where you are

[subtle sapphire]

On ps4 with mouse and keyboard. What button is default for ability such as hover and dash etc

[grave oriole]

Joined a drill dozer mission and fell through the map while repairing Doretta

[drifting sail]

If you get lost you still should regroup anyway, especially before ammo.

I'd love a stalker bug that only went for solo dwarves...

Bet you could cross a water beetle and a mantis for a nightmare bug.

[magic sluice]

usually yea, but i've had situations where i needed ammo to make it to my team, but its a rare situation

[drifting sail]

Yup. Almost always something you can do besides screwing over your teammates. I try to only ever double dip as last dwarf alive.

[raw garden]

too many low levels join haz4-5 mission without even knowing and they just die and sometimes even ruin the mission.

the server browsers should disable anything above haz3 for newer players

it's honestly pretty annoying but they often don't even realise they joined a higher hazard level

hell, new players should not be able to join haz4 without having completed a specific assigment imo

[drifting sail]

First promotion unlocking DD and Haz4 would be ideal.

[gray raptor]

Hello there

Just started playing this game

Don't know anything about it, I think I need a feel advices lol

[wise kiln]

I brought this up when I first started playing the game, and some dude was like, "just carry the team, it's easy" 😐 Anyway, I know the frustration of Haz 4 and the game's difficulty gating, and my only advice would be to 1. just play on Haz 3 (that's what I do in pubs), or 2. Play on Haz 5 (you'll at least only get promoted dwarves, though, after 25 levels there's no guarantee a player will be Haz 5/EDD ready), or 3. get some dang friends (what every solo player loves to hear in a multiplayer game!) Funnily enough, I did kind of get good enough to carry teams on Haz 4, but no one should never have to do that in the first place 🤷

[idle robin]

Can confirm that Deep For Speed was not one of the retroactive Trophies being tracked

[stray fractal]

You can read the miner'manual in game first

[drifting sail]

Look up AND down before you leap.

DRG is big on tactical positioning and remembering where you are and what literal pitfalls are behind you.

[stray fractal]

Truly,DRG requires your three-dimensional thinking

[gray raptor]

Oh I just got screwed because of a fall

[gray raptor]

Oh really? I thought that was just for basic stuff

I'm playing solo and the missions are fun, but they are long

[stray fractal]

just take it easy,you will be faster when you are skilled,such as 4 eggs hunt mission,you can finish it in 10 minutes,hazard 5

[raw garden]

just play haz 3 isn't a solution though

[crude tendon]

Does anyone recommend good guides for the new secondary weapons

[raw garden]

the devs should make an effort to at least have hazard 4 and 5 disabled in the server browser for new people

currently it's a bit of a nightmare for people playing high haz levels

people should specifically have to enmable it

4 and 5 should be disabled by default

dont get me wrong, i don't blame new players who simply dont know they're joining haz 4 or 5. devs should disabled 4 and 5 by default like i said.

[stray fractal]

good idea

[raw garden]

we usually don't wanna kick people especially if they're new. but like, they get totally over run and have no clue whats even going on

kicking new players is kinda harsh you know

[stray fractal]

so I choose solo,most of the time

[drifting sail]

Hard to beat Brosco

[crude tendon]

Same. My luck I’ll find loot and someone will trigger the drop ship.

[gray raptor]

So I should explore more?

Because I'm just doing the objectives solo

I really like Brosco and Molly

[stray fractal]

Just take your time

[raw garden]

solo is fun but running with a good squad is just on another level with DRG imo

so much fun

[crude tendon]

I usually start with secondary objective while I have brosco knock down minerals for me and look for other rare gems. I do the map in chunks working one area until it dead dead ends or loops around to another area.

[wise kiln]

Well, it depends. Haz 3 to Haz 4 isn't much of an XP/credit jump, so, for me, that is a solution and a pretty reasonable trade-off for pubs, considering most players can handle Haz 3 no problem.

If you're not in it for XP/credits, and are just looking for a challenge or whatever, and aren't willing to make friends to play in a full team on Haz 4, then you're left with fewer options. You could also always lobby your position against the devs to motion a change in the game's format, there should be a feedback channel somewhere on this server.

[lapis ruin]

Welcome, new miner! In addition to the good advice here, this Wiki article is a decent place to start: https://deeprockgalactic.fandom.com/wiki/How_to_Play_Guide_for_Deep_Rock_Galactic

[gray raptor]

Thanks guys, you helped me a lot

I think I'm gonna look for a group

Last time I tried Public people just rushed and didn't even get the secondary objective

[drifting sail]

Yes, mics help a lot too.

#lfg-playstation if you didn't already know

[gray raptor]

Oh, are there a lot of players on PlayStation?

[magic sluice]

I did the EDD yesterday with a full team, after everyone but our driller went down on the first stage the other 2 players left.
Me and the driller went on alone and finished the whole thing, sadly my game disconnected me right after so i never got to buy a drink for the driller.
Rock and Stone to that driller for sticking with me and making it through!

[drifting sail]

I have never done a DD or EDD other than solo.

No trust in my heart.

[gray raptor]

What's dd and edd?

[thin crypt]

dig dug and evil dig dug

[drifting sail]

Lmao, Deep Dive and Elite version

Dig Dug, yeaaars

[mossy hatch]

Haha, arcade!
Deep Dive and Elite Deep Dive. They're weekly challenges that become available to you after you've promoted a dwarf

[drifting sail]

Dig Dug armor DLC when? Inflation arrows for scout xbow.

[toxic cape]

@magic sluice you did the EDD without me again homie?

[magic sluice]

i can do it again with you if you want, its not too hard this week

[toxic cape]

Aight when I get home. I'm out of town for the weekend right now

[magic sluice]

yea no worries!
just hit me up when you want to!

but that does remind me, next week ill hold off on the deep dives until you get on, its probably fun to suffer through them together lmao

I just lost a 50 minute mission to a crash

Nice

[drifting sail]

I think I did that 1hr in the same mission I built my pipe rollercoaster world.

[amber flint]

ps is so bugged

I hope the falling through maps is a priority

[green barn]

Why greenbeards quit went someone activate the mic?

[covert valve]

It's called Playstation not MicStation

[grave oriole]

I want to punch the guy in R&D that programmed Molly

[green barn]

Ok ok i get it

[drifting sail]

That's what mute is for.

PS5s lol

[grave oriole]

I'm playing a solo mission and I hear talking and I was confused but now I realize it's the Nemesis

[green barn]

I mean i just gave the tip to not pop more that 1 egg at the time and he just instally leave

[mossy hatch]

Maybe they like things spicy?

[green barn]

We are just getting destroy by 2 swarm already

Specially with the cave leach, i was trying to clear the zone before they get grabbed

[mossy hatch]

Maybe they like things extra spicy?

[green barn]

I mean i can agreed with that

[frigid adder]

based community

[dreamy needle]

Idk if im just really lucky, or if its a bug, but i found 3 prospectors in a row during missions

[grave oriole]

just played a drill dozer mission with randoms, we dug all the way to the heart stone without the Drilldozer and we didn't notice a Scout went all the way back to start it up, and not even 25% of the trail and we lost both sides to it due to 2 Bulk Detonators spawning behind and in front of the Drilldozer

[amber flint]

imagine telling a pub how to play 😆

[green barn]

Yeah my bad man

[grave oriole]

The true way to play Elimination is to pop every egg at once and have a free for all

[green barn]

I mean in elimination is fun to do it every time you can

[fervent orbit]

Got an accolade for good sport and i didnt even get them out 😭 they just kept getting nuked

[grave oriole]

Based

[green barn]

I was egg hunt btw

I think i prefer fighting a hivecuard than a masive swarm

[grave oriole]

I'd give any Driller that nukes our scout a Helpful accolade

just joined a Drilldozer mission, every dwarf was down, Doretta was at 45% on her last bar and I stepped off my insertion pod and fell out of the map

10/10 would do again

[wise kiln]

I asked an Engi to put up some platforms for me to mine nitra. And they did. 10/10 cause 9 times out of 10 in any other game a random would take any request as a form of passive aggression and retaliate by trolling 👍 love DRG

[grave oriole]

based engi

Everytime I play Engi I always make sure to place platforms under minerals on the walls/ceilings if we have a scout

[grave oriole]

I play DRG on PS4 but I do have a PS5 and I started it up and I got 6 Helpful accolades out of nowhere

[hexed shale]

If somebody is helpful im absolutely giving them a helpful accolade same for leadership and other accolades got quite afew myself for being a super helpful engineer! 😁

[grave oriole]

Epic, Rock and Stone to you

[hexed shale]

I don't wait to be told to put platforms for Scout I'll look around and put them up immediately then they can go at them when they have the time.

Same with creating paths from one side to another or platforms to help with verticality.

I've only played for a week but im getting the hang of it already promoted my engineer.

Wish more people would use in game voice though but that's always a issue with party chat i wish PlayStation had party chat simular to pc voice chat where you can hear game voice chat whilst in a private voice party and easily switch between the two.

[grave oriole]

true, but honestly I'm afraid of voice chat because of anxiety and I don't have good hearing and most players would rather kick than repeat themselves

I've learned that there's an in game chat though and I use it from time to time

[hexed shale]

i feel your pain im hard of hearing and had a lifetime of people raging cause they had to repeat the themselves. lol

[hexed shale]

Text chat? How?

[grave oriole]

Go into settings, controls and you can enable it somewhere at the top

You open it by clicking the right stick 2 times

[hexed shale]

That's super useful thanks!

[grave oriole]

You're welcome

[hexed shale]

btw what the difference in our name colours? Also i heard we can get a in game weekly bonus from being on this discord how?

[grave oriole]

It's not that well known that I've had games where I say gg in chat and the randoms turn and stare at me as if they're trying to figure out how I used the chat

white is normal and gold means they bought the Supporter upgrade dlc

[hexed shale]

im pinkish?

peach?

[grave oriole]

Oh do you mean in this discord

Idk I'm also new to the discord

[hexed shale]

i literally just joined

[grave oriole]

Your tag says Engineer

[hexed shale]

ahh

thats why its in rules tab

[grave oriole]

Ohh

[hexed shale]

always read the rules! 😜

😂

[grave oriole]

Very true

there we go

[hexed shale]

😎

Rock n Stone Brother!

ok found chat console in custom control settings

[amber flint]

Why does no one play haz 5 pubs, im curious

[covert valve]

Anyone want to team up for some games? I play scout/engineer

[mossy hatch]

If I had to take a guess, I'd say it's because it's got a relatively high chance of failure compared to other Hazard Levels, especially when folks are not communicating and working as a team. Playing with random folks means you won't know what to expect out of each other and folks might not be communicative: this makes pretty much every aspect of a mission more challenging.
Personally, it's a level of chaos I have no interest in exploring, although I bet it could lead to some truly amazing stories...

[covert valve]

I don't like haz 5 because the difficulty level is too insane.

[amber flint]

I see, that makes sense drg is more chill game. And most people want to complete levels over a challenge.

[green barn]

Is hard to play with randoms really

Thats why i put in haz 3 for the random greenbeard

[mossy hatch]

Haz 5 is often at least a bit of a challenge for even the most veteran, well-practiced team of dwarves. Take out experience, communication, and cohesive teamwork and you're likely in for one heck of a wild ride that you're likely not coming back from alive, haha

[green barn]

I had fun with this edd to play in haz 5 and die

Was one hell of emotions

[mossy hatch]

Oh, it can definitely be fun, but it can also be stressful. It kinda depends on how much excitement you're looking for

[quaint zinc]

My 3 reasons:

1. Haz 5 makes my game poop out

2. I don’t trust randoms

3. I play just to play, not go full Starship Troopers at Outpost 29.

[velvet magnet]

I can't even unlock it my assignment is bugged

On the very last mission of it

[mystic wedge]

I've only every had fun playing haz 3 and 4. Randos never really bothered me on those haz levels. I finally and playing haz 5 and enjoy the challenge but im finding myself getting more annoyed at randoms not being really on the ball.

There isn't a whole lot of room for error so so all of the sudden other people are the variable that makes or breaks the mission. Ofc I'm that guy that breaks the mission sometimes too but im prob going to back to haz 4 just to avoid being annoyed.

[green barn]

For me i will stay in haz 4 until i feel natural then i will move on in haz 5

I still lack practice

Sometimes you carry, sometimes you get carried

[mystic wedge]

💯

[green barn]

Rn just playing to get lvl 100

[mystic wedge]

I just got it - level 108 now

[green barn]

Nice

[mystic wedge]

I was really hype for the scale brigade armor lol

[frigid adder]

Same i also want to move to haz 5 but it is very hard

[mystic wedge]

It is super hard. I prob wouldn't have even started playing it if it wasn't for wanting to hold my own in edds

Haz 4 is the sweet spot for me

[green barn]

I can barely survive haz 4 with 4 players

Ffor me is already too much chaos

[frigid adder]

Haz 4 is very nice

[mystic wedge]

I just recently got to the point of haz 3 being too easy and haz 4 being doable

Now it's what haz 3 used to feel like

Better ocs helped alot

[frigid adder]

When i started i forced myself to play haz 3

My first mission was on haz 3 and i never lowered the difficulty

I didn't beat it until like the fifth try

I could probably do the same with haz 5 but it would be harder and slower ofc

[mystic wedge]

Man the learning curve on this game was brutal for me. Haz 3 is kinda nuts to start from lol

Respek

[frigid adder]

You know what, as soon as i get my shard diffractor i'm gonna start with haz 5, can't say i'll be succesful but i'll try

[green barn]

Im becoming better in hacking the new rhings

[frigid adder]

Those are so hard

I can never coordinate with my team on those

[mystic wedge]

I dont think I've had a single successful hack of the thing that blows up

[frigid adder]

Me neither

[mystic wedge]

Maybe ran into it 3 or 4 times

[green barn]

Specially the new event

[frigid adder]

Yeah

the ones from season one are pretty easy in my opinion

[mystic wedge]

Is that the new event?

[frigid adder]

But the new one is brutal

the one with the antenna nodes

Right?

[mystic wedge]

Yeah

[green barn]

Yep

[frigid adder]

The explosion isn't that bad but man the hacking is not forgiving

[mystic wedge]

Oh shit yeah I got one on haz 3 but on higher haz it's been not even close

[green barn]

The time window is so small

[mystic wedge]

It is and if you also have to fight bugs... good luck

[frigid adder]

I wish the nodes wouldn't blast you with electricity

The bugs already beat you pretty hard when you're hacking

I'm sure it comes down with practice

And also defending my teammates

[mystic wedge]

Yeah similar with the omen tower

[frigid adder]

I still fail the omen

but i do get it sometimes

[mystic wedge]

It isn't a given for sure but at first there wasn't a chance lol

I least like the one where you throw bombs. Sometimes without a driller, it isn't possible

[frigid adder]

Ebonite is so fun tho

[green barn]

Agreed

[mystic wedge]

Yeah it is

[frigid adder]

It's also easy

[mystic wedge]

The infected crystal one is fine too

[frigid adder]

I think i've failed it a total of 2 times

[frigid adder]

yeah

[mystic wedge]

Ebonite is almost a given

Crystal cuts it close sometimes

Bombs are a complete crap shoot and omen is only if the team all already knows what to do

[frigid adder]

I actually really like the bombs

[velvet magnet]

The tritilyte is my fav

The ebonites don't spawn fast enough

[frigid adder]

I haven't came across that issue

[green barn]

Depends in the numbers of players

[velvet magnet]

I have around 4 times

[mystic wedge]

I like them but if the bomb dispenser is too far or in a fucky location it simply can't be done

[frigid adder]

In fact the only 2 times i've failed is because too many came in and destroyed me

[velvet magnet]

Even with full squad

The crystal thingy i dunno

It's alright

And OMEN is the true test

[mystic wedge]

Facts

[velvet magnet]

But if the team can shut down the bottom level it's good

[frigid adder]

Usually if i fail omen it's because of my teammates

And that says a lot

[mystic wedge]

I usually just put the resupply on the bottom pad and stand on it

[velvet magnet]

You just gave me an idea

[frigid adder]

Does this cover against the drones

They screw me up all the time

[mystic wedge]

It just allows you to trigger the pad while keeping you above the beams

[green barn]

I just use my plaform gun

[mystic wedge]

But if other players are trying to do other levels at the same time it easily falls apart

[green barn]

Omen has the most team wipes in the events

[mystic wedge]

Same idea then. Height and cover when you need it but any dwarf can use a resupply if you have the nitra

[mystic wedge]

No doubt

Might as well do that as soon as you find it so you don't team wipe after the mission is complete

[green barn]

Kinda sad most of the randoms ar scare of the omen event

[mystic wedge]

Yeah I used to just start it and run away for the xp boost

Until I learned wtf is going on with it

[green barn]

i just die by omen rn

I feel disapointed

[mystic wedge]

The rng of your team has a lot to do with it

[green barn]

You can see the modules with the pointer

[mystic wedge]

Yeah

Drones suck the most

[green barn]

Hit hard and hard to see

Thats is my experience with the drones

[grave oriole]

tmw the featured beer is Dark Morkite but you don't have Morkite missions but when you do, Dark Morkite isn't available anymore

[grave oriole]

Just got kicked from 2 missions in a row with a "sorry this was meant to be a private game" message

[raw garden]

yeah not sure why people make a public server then kick people who join lol

[halcyon saddle]

Last 2 omens me and my team just couldn't kill the last module in time. Last omen gunner activated it by himself without letting us reach him first

[grave oriole]

bruh same

we were defending the Uplink and then our host who was a Gunner went and started the Omen and he didn't place his shield down once during the fight

he wasn't new since he was promoted

[dense osprey]

helloo

[velvet magnet]

Greetings

[dense osprey]

my friend wanted me to join this server to find a 3rd and 4th to play with altho where still quite new

[velvet magnet]

#lfg-playstation

That's where you request for extra miners

[dense osprey]

ah didnt notice that channel mb

[grave oriole]

rip to this driller green beard

he kept going afk in the middle of the game so I'd try to defend them and when they did move I pinged and said in chat that there's a cargo crate but he never got it and we completed the mission but they went afk before drop pod landed and the drop pod left without them

[grave oriole]

just watched a scout get crushed by the drop pod

[trim berry]

Whats the button for the mic

Okay its double tap with the right thumbstick for those that dont know and has to be toggled in the menu

[velvet magnet]

Isn't that.....for text chat?

[trim berry]

It iss

Im so confused

Im new

[halcyon saddle]

I've seen many players with multiple stars being close or literal noobs. I'm a ps4 player, so maybe it has something to do with packs

[drifting sail]

New antenna hacking minigame is awful.
If the antenna aren't spawned on the ceiling I'm getting pushed off the hack by Molly or a Shredder. Have not completed a single one yet.

Kinda looking forward to the season end so I don't have them spawning in levels any more.

[magic sluice]

they arent too bad ones you get used to the hacking, but they shouldnt spawn on the ceiling

[sly ice]

@mystic wedge

[mystic wedge]

Yeah?

[amber flint]

I mean why just not do them, if you dont have an engi to make platforms

[drifting sail]

Because that's a major way you get season points. The point is TO do them.

It's just intensely aggravating that so many elements of the game work against you being stationary, and then you are forced to be stationary to do an event.
Haz 3, not so bad. But playing Haz4+ and you need an Engineer to place platforms or Driller to make tunnels, a Scout to get to it, Gunner to shield them while they hack and sometimes I just want to play solo.

Give Bosco autohack perk when?

[wise kiln]

I hate it, as well. The hacking itself, and the countdown element of it.

I've gotten advice to time the hacking of the wires right before it lands on the one you're supposed to press, and it mostly works that way, but to me that's just piss poor game design to anticipate something as if it were latency-affected. Usually, I'm host, and there's still timing issues. Hopefully GSG are aware 😕

[amber flint]

Way bigger problems rn then this , but that fact that I pass these 90% I agree

[wise kiln]

Curious, what other issues are users having at the moment?

[drifting sail]

I can hack the minigame if I'm not literally being knocked out of the hacking constantly. Intensely frustrating.

[plush idol]

The knockback is so frustrating when the timers done

Getting sent back and probably falling like 20 feet down to die is stupid

[amber flint]

Falling through maps, object that you interact with dont sometime doesnt register ( pickax red sugar and get no heal) , and constant disconnects

other small stuff like interacting with object doesnt work at first and you have to look around and re interact, models not loading in the season menu ( I think this was fixed)

Games still playable, I just never seen any of these s1 which doesnt mean much I dont have that many hours

[wise kiln]

Fair 👍

[lime tundra]

getting knocked back by the shock is something you learn to deal with, as in seeing the timer's too low to even bother starting a hack by the time you finally reach it, or if you messed up enough that there's not enough time to finish, that's when you bail and wait for the next one, or position yourself so the blast doesn't knock you off a cliff

does need someone to keep the bugs and bots off you though, and many randos don't do that yet

I played s1 a ton, rate of falling through maps and dcs don't feel any different

but hold S commands not working until you take a step or so and models not loading in season menu are new

so is molly desyncing with the beacon location when you try to drop it infront of her to get her to quickly stop. then she decides it actually means the beacon is 8m away and has to slooowly hoof it over there first no matter how hard you mash beacon

[drifting sail]

I'm talking knockback from various enemies or Molly before the hack timer. That little zap is just an insult to injury by then.

[frigid adder]

I'm proud to announce that i've done my first hazard 5 mission

[drifting sail]

Grats, amazing grunt swarms.

Love watching the whole wall be angry bugs.

[frigid adder]

Yeah

I brought my fat boy to finally see it in all its glory

[drifting sail]

[covert valve]

it’s fun but not practical

[magic sluice]

so i finally figured out how to use RJ250 compound properly and it might be the most fun and useful overclock for the engi

who needs scouts when you have Rj250

[covert valve]

Still no light

[grave oriole]

Spam pinging the hell out of a kursite grinder but watching the scout call the drop pod

just activated it for the XP at that point

[covert valve]

We love scout players

[magic sluice]

Was he the host?

[grave oriole]

no

I've had games where we're collecting wall minerals like Enor Pearls and transporting them to the mine head only to hear it fly off while we got like 3 Enor Pearls and an Error Cube and we had to carry them the whole way

[neon gorge]

rj250 is very strong even if you don’t use the rocket jump feature

[magic sluice]

Yea it just gives more ammo basically, but if you put the right upgrades on it, it becomes effectively useless as a weapon but you can rocket jump without taking any damage or only very little

[drifting sail]

I hate that so very much. Unless you're dying under a horde, take a moment for minerals and events...

[neon gorge]

even max ammo rj is a decent weapon, cus all it really needs is the fire upgrade

[magic sluice]

Yea rj is a lot better than i originally thought when i first got it.
RJ250, fat boy and hyper propellant, the most fun OCs for the grenade launcher

In general, since i went back to using the grenade launcher i had a lot more fun playing engi. breach cutter and shard diffractor are stronger but less fun, at least for me

[neon gorge]

pgl is still the best at destroying large crowds from any range imo

rj gives you lots of ammo for popping groups of grunts on the ceiling and walls

[magic sluice]

Yea thats true

Slap the faster projectile speed and fire upgrade on and it becomes a high speed warcrime

[mystic wedge]

Good job. They are nuts

[frigid adder]

Thanks

[mystic wedge]

I mean you did start with haz 3 so trial by fire seems to be your bag

[drifting sail]

Pheromone crossbow bolts for scount get A+. Killer vs Detonators.
Enjoying the 3x bolts OC, since I never manage to get much ammo back anyway. Auto-retreiving OC would be niiice.

[chrome obsidian]

Yo anyone have connections issues I can only play solo

[drifting sail]

Just you, check that router.

[civic shuttle]

Got the 3 minute continuous pipe ride trophy done 😂

And it only took an hour 🤣

[amber flint]

I wish I was in that lobby, too lazy to do this myself

how many times did you need to refill your drills ?

[grave oriole]

I got the same trophy in an hour and a half and I did it as a scout so it took longer

[drifting sail]

That's wayyyy neater than what I made. Engineered a pipesnake up and down the walls.

[civic shuttle]

I just drilled straight until I hit the games bounds the left left and right. Cleared a HUGE area. Then snaked it back and forth 😂

[grave oriole]

I just went up and down the bounds and on top of crystals

THREE TIMES I got stopped mid way due to lootbugs on the rails

Let's just say I sent them to bug heaven

[amber flint]

and this is why the bugs try to kill us

[covert valve]

Ruining their home lmfao

[frigid adder]

Ooh baby

3 haz 5 missions in a row

Rock Solid seems doable

Lost the 4th one tho

[wise kiln]

Rip. But thought you could just close the game and it would keep your streak?

[frigid adder]

Huh

No clue if that still works

[velvet magnet]

THE RIDE NEVER ENDS

[grave oriole]

If that does work then

I haven't unlocked Haz 5 yet, I am terrified of Haz 4 Elimination

[velvet magnet]

If it's solo you shouldn't be too scared

The damage buff you get while solo is a good boost

[grave oriole]

You get a damage buff solo?

No wonder why I managed to kill a Dreadnought Lacerator with just the pickaxe on Haz 3

I was doing the Without a Paddle trophy

[velvet magnet]

You did WHAT

[green barn]

Based

[magic sluice]

There's an upgrade that lets you retrieve bolts from far away

[outer drift]

Anyone know how to transfer ps4 to ps5 data? i went to restore save on my ps5 and theres no old save slots ;/

Guess ive lost all my progress then, I only have 1 backup save and thats just the default backup from logging in today

[gloomy apex]

Btw

That's just my personal preference

But I have the flares on the right stick and rock and Stone on O

[magic sluice]

do throphies work again on ps4? i just got one

[gloomy apex]

Also got one

But pretty glitched

[magic sluice]

i was just playing engi with the pgl and warthog, another engi on my team was running different weapons.
when i shot and reloaded my pgl the other engi gave the voiceline
"its my base weapon, hahaha"

[grave oriole]

Yes trophies are working on PS4 again

[grave oriole]

Shout-out to these group of randoms, we spent like an hour pinging each other and random things and then we dug to the top of the map and jumped out

[magic sluice]

having to deal with a group of 3 greenbeards that dont listen, biggest pain in the ass i ever had

[grave oriole]

very true but over time they will learn

Hopefully

right now these 2 are in a ping battle and we're filling a hole full of flares

[magic sluice]

i told them multiple times, both in text and voice chat, they just ignored me

[grave oriole]

damn

[magic sluice]

i could hear them on vc, literally 12yo

[grave oriole]

my condolences

[magic sluice]

i know they're just greenbeards and im trying my best not to get angry at them, but god damn they just cant listen at all

[covert valve]

I don’t think it’s a damage buff exactly I think the bugs health scales with teammates

[grave oriole]

Ah

[covert valve]

What’s going on in that photo lol

[grave oriole]

Idk lol

We finally finished the mission at 1:31:20
