if you have 10k hours in any game, I am scared
GW2 streamers
There are people with 15k in csgo
Really any MMO streamer
god, to think I used to be a league player
I'm glad you recovered
yeah, was an addict for a few years
fell off when they stopped caring ab lore
and also norms players
New scout killing video when
Coming R8
Shit
damn
I need my fix
Can't believe i have to choose between r7b1, r1c1, r1b2, or r4c2 to watch
r1b2 :]
Me thinks I'll watch something more interesting
is it normal to find 8 giants (first room) and 2 tenticall guys (2nd room) on R1A1???
um no
r1a1 are u sure?
cause if so someones prob hackin in ur lobby
tho very softly
i guess
um yes that isnt supposed to happen
so um
if u can kinda tell who it is u could report em to @foggy plank
just put in all the details about it, if u can some evidence like screenshots too n stuff
cause r1a1 does have 2 scouts in zone
but they arent in the first zone
yes
nor there are as many giants like startin off
yes
hate r1c1 dude whenever the fuck i input reactor verify its like "invalid security code
"
Is there any way to adjust the brightness/gamma in this game through any 3rd party tool if necessary? Doesn't seem properly adjusted on my system
GTFO doesn't officially support mods and we don't allow them to be played in public lobbies or voice channels on this server, and lengthy discussions should also be avoided (mentioning them is perfectly fine). However, we do recognize that a GTFO modding community exist and if you are interested in them, you are welcome to join the independent modding community Discord server. https://discord.gg/rRMPtv4FAh (If you have any more questions, please read rule #12 in the rules channel for more information.)
Ya.. I've tried adjusting it through nvidia control panel but it didnt' seem to have any effect. It's making this game pretty unpleasant to play
i mean that's just kinda it, darkness is well, dark, unless u turn on ur flashlight
it's supposed to b pitch black
that's why glowies r thing too and long range flashlight
and all that
Fair enough. It seems odd to have it designed that there can be no visual detail at all without your flashlight on. Feels like bad game design but maybe I'm wrong
From my understanding (As a new player) it seems like the idea is to make you use the flashlight which can be dangerous, but also means you have to use your ears as much as your sight to safely navigate through some areas (Enemies tend to have audio cues as well as visual from what I've seen so far). It also brings a sort of paranoia in towards using the flashlight a lot and willy nilly.
Some parts of the game as well are bright or have light sources you can see by, but the design of the environment is pretty well done when you consider it's meant to make it hard and push for communication with your team to cover any sort of blind spots.
But that's just my take on the enviromental factors.
also, flashlight is used to resync enemies pulse timings and is something you would only briefly use to assess a dark corner instead of constantly having on unless you know the environment is safe.
Having it on a lot isn't a bad idea, you just have to be aware of what you're doing.
Btw, should you have restarted this is kinda ignorable, but there is a bug that specifically only beginners seem to get where the fog from the map vanishes and everything becomes super dark and tough to see
for hammer u have to quarter charge and hit on the back to one shot?
or half charge or
Roughly half
Unless you are going to double kill etc, just full charhe commonly to get one shots on strikers anywhere
not true
must be behind the enemy for it to count as back damage since it is based on player position
you need a bit of charge
bat obviously not
I guess I was partially charging by accident on strikers then
missing 2 dmg
but I do know I definitely did it on shooters
why is it 3 x 5 x 2 btw
is that 3 base damage
5 headshot multiplier
and the 2 back multipler?
and lower base hp
and then I assume chargers just don't get back bonus
or head bonus rather
still back
yea and have 30 hp like shooters
to double kill what do u do
20
ah
to double kill it will depend on the enemies
as d4rk was basically discussing
but stay behind back and do quarter charges for strikers/shooters
should work
You can safely do triple kills even
you can wake a cluster of about 6 enemies and kill them all before a scream if careful with sledge
but it is way too risky
yeah
sometimes they scream immediately
sometimes delay
shooters do it faster
and I feel like crawling strikers do too?
but I may be wrong
is there anyone that wants to do r1c2 and r1d1
do a lfg post
I dont wanna host tho
...
my internet isnt the most stable
then at least post you're looking for group for those lobbies there
how do I do that
No one is gonna be checking here for it
join a voice chat, post the voice chat link, have someone who joins host
ok thx
probably type in the message that you cant host
so full charge on 1 striker then quarter on the others back?
if you can, get back of the head
best to start with full charge on first enemy
otherwise youll need more charge for that one
since it's free
or just go for head straight
got it ty
for knife
what should i do
or i shouldnt even use it in the first place
not exactly on the head?
but you need to be more precise
when sleeping
yes
ive 1 shotted strikers on their face
knife 1 shots smalls to the head
full charge
shooter you will need back of head i think
thats where youd wanna aim
when they woke up
and not just the back in general
knife is a niche but powerful small clearing tool
shooter and striker 1 shot in the face when they woke up
remember
you need to be standing behind the enemy
for the back bonus
and occiput
just head
their head multi is that huge
ah ok
but yeah, your back damage comes from player position Khat
so you need to actively be within 90 degrees or so behind the enemy
but i dont rly see a point in going behined the backs of striker
or spitter
cuz knife 1 shots full charge on their face
as long as full charge you're fine yes
it just means you can kill with less commitment to full charging
if killing a few in a row
ok lets say theres 2
its not important with knife for those 2
same strat
what should i do to kill the next one fastest
ok for 3 then
Same
enemies in the room ONLY wake when the sleeper screams in terms of a sleeper being active
not counting other obvious triggers
what should i do against
those big spiky guys
who charge
knife
or should i just leave it to my other teammates
knife needs 1 back hit while they sleep and another back hit
its rough
knife is only rly used vs smalls
yea so i just leave them to ppl with hammer or spear
playing without bio tracker is terrifying..
Just use your eyes ;)
i cant even use my eyes irl how can i use them in this dark game
Flashlight
the maps r so dark ๐ญ
Throw glowsticks
Glowstick boosters
Well biotracker is broken
it shows small red dots right?
I meant broken as in insanely good
oh
Overpowered
the small red dots are a bug where enemys are unloaded
Sometimes enemies appear as small red dots which is a bug
yes
I never take biotracker I'm too bad with it
My teammates always flame me
i still need to know whats 30 meters and whats 20 meters
i havent met a single toxic person here ๐ญ
biotracker is the tool with the highest player ceiling
everyone here is nice
so prob not yet ๐
ur right im horrible ๐
Take a sentry, put it down and walk away, it'll tell you
The positive, theres a ton of room to grow
My static teammates are toxic*
i hate when theres upstairs and downstairs in a map makes biotracker
so hard to like
know where exactly the enemies are
Use the flashlight : P
they would be above me then they would just wake up instantly ๐ญ
go to settings go to text and images look for emoji section then find convert to emoji something something
then disable it
:P
:)
damn u got discord in 2016
I have some forbidden knowledge for you about this if you want it
If you are on a bridge with sleeping enemies below you, you can walk without waking them up
what happens if they r above me
Probably the same response, as long as you aren't crouching or running
crouching wakes them up more than walking?
crouching is fine 
Crouching is for NERDS
true
๐
When are you gonna do walking kills Khat
so lets say
i opened a door
theres 3 clumped up together
then ALOT behined them but they r far
should i start crying or walk to all 3 or crouch
and full charge them all?
when you say this do you mean 3 enemies hard alerting after you hit the first one?
yep
How would you do that? 3 I get if you shove the 3rd after killing the first 2 and then hitting stunlocking after... but 4? Are you relying on strafe dodging an attack or what?
Or if you have a video ref even better
1 insta kill
2 occi tap/min charge
3 shove
4 tap on head for stagger
kill 3 or 4 (whatevers easier) or dmg it. Then just shove again when needed
with good setup you can get 2 min charge kills in a row aswell
tho thats easier as host
Not sure if anyone mentioned it yet, but the act of crouching (or getting up) DOES move you a bit and it's counted as movement
So be wary of crouching/getting up when an enemy is pulsating/glowing/whatever lingo you want to use
didn't think you'd have time to shove and tap on head before one attacks you but I guess I'm not playing close enough to the min charge threshold
You shove the one who's in their attack first. It's just a staggering game afterall
if they all hard alert at the same time sleepers 3 and 4 would be attacking at the same time (assuming the same orientation)
Then you choose smartly which one to kill first
alright ty
how long does shove stun for
the right click
how long does it take for strikers to charge up an attack
ik they glow but when do they shoot the tenticle out
maybe around a second as well
okay
im running carbine and revolver and biotracker and knife should i change something?
You've not got much giant killing potential there but if your teammates have it covered its fine
i usually only use biotracker and communicate to the team
but i also do stab alot sometimes
barely use guns
you can't go wrong with carbine, revolver is specialised for killing a stream of enemies efficiently and knife is great for stealth killing smalls
Hammer is more versatile than knife but knife is fun so live your life
i 1 shot enemies with revolver headshot
tbh ive used both and i find knife better
but i just started so obv can change
If you find the knife fun then stick with it, the only limitation you'll have is dealing with giants you'll want most of your team to help
two hammers can kill a giant reliably between them but a knife doesn't contribute quite as much unless you really know what you're doing
i usually just let ppl with hammers deal with giants yea
i only stab striker and spitters
i also dont deal with scouts cuz im terrified to alert it
oh yeah forgot about those lol, thats a lot harder with knife but still possible
knife can contribute real well but only for the first hit
i run knife all the time and when we kill giants, they just let me get in the first stab to the back of the head
i need to see that
Too late, posted R6C2 overload ๐ฅถ
And chargers, and scouts and funny stuff you can do rly only with hammer
chargers and scouts are totally killable with knife
hammer is easily THE best melee
Charger is just double full charge right?
knife has smth it does better (quick small clears) but otherwise its rly just there for the lulz
chargers just take two charges ^ and scouts are easy, SUPER easy if you jump at them
nah, you need a back full charge with sleep multi and then another back full charge
Oh well, yeah to the back xD I thought that was obvious
scouts still limit you to come from behind lol
sneaking up behind people with a knife ๐ easy
Scouts with knife are easy if there's hardly any other shit in the room so you can manuever around
If thats easy then hammer is brainless tho
chargers meaning the spikey giant ones?
you legit just go AT the scout
Yes that was my point
I think that knife can nullify its weaknesses to an extent but you just have to put some extra work in, all in order to clear smalls a little bit better
hammer is way easier but knife can do it just fine, just takes a bit more positioning
yeah, all-black spikey boys
knife becomes a bit more of a problem with shadow scouts
a fully perfectly played knife is barely doing the same things (except smalls) that an average hammer does
The problem that I have with a newbie taking a knife is that he's going to have to switch to hammer eventually
meh, if they switch eventually thats fine
The only melee I am really gonna advise someone to change is spear
Basically, hammer is easier and has a higher skill ceiling
if someone wants to use knife go wild its fun
this is GTFO no fun allowed
Yeah I don't think anyone is disputing hammer is best?
vs non smalls* is what i mean btw
wait, you think hammer has a higher skill ceiling than knife?
ceiling in what you can achieve sure, but how skill ceiling?
every melee has this?
what?
unless you count a ton of charging for spear
Maybe our definitions are different
what are you calling occi kills and min charge kills?
occi tap
if you get real good at hammer with % charge to oneshot
min charge is very low charge occi kills (strikers)
I read as targetting occi for a kill with less charge, and generally just charging less so you are being time efficient
Isn't occi tap not a thing on shooters any more anyway?
Don't you need a tiny bit of charge
I mean knife is gonna have a breakpoint to charge to before full charge when killing stuff too though
It will be closer to 100%, yes
and it legit wont rly happen
because no player is skilled enough to take advantage of it? ๐
no because knife charge speed is already this high
like obviously this is such a marginal thing
But I don't really like this as an argument for hammer having a higher skill ceiling
you can also say knife can solo tank as a skill ceiling
we both know thats just being unrealistic
hammer skill ceiling are all very realistic things
hell, mom hammer solo is
Maybe this is just semantic and I'd prefer to say that a skilled hammer can do a lot more than a skilled knife
oh
I guess it is
I'm just being dumb I think never mind ๐
For some reason I was parsing it as how much skill it takes to take the weapon to its limit
Will the return of the R6 be the fastest? Since the code for this Rundown is closest to the current version
who knows
That could be it, but I don't think code was ever the issue
They are just RNG rerolling maps until they get the same one again
Although at that point why not just release the same ones... Like what's the principal decision behind it
I guess gotta enforce that alt universe variation? A slightly different room there and there?
Because the game is different than it was back then
those same maps would possibly not work
Same engine, mostly same mechanics... I don't know.
But in their position I would do the same. If I can make it perfect and up to date - I will.
Gtfo is a very broken game
Problem: i2lcpp build
Solution: mono build
I have no idea what those words mean, but I'll take your word for it
Don't worry m8. you get used to it
ะัะตะผ ะฟัะธะฒะตั ๐ท๐บ ะตััั? ะฝะพะฒะธัะบะธ

GTFO has no Flaws. But it has many many "Features"
Best feature is giants hitting before they actually animate doing it :3.
Best feature is chargers clipping through stuff
That got added so early on I forget when. But once it did. Giants became a bigger threat back then
Giants before the 0 frame attack were much easier to deal with (given majority of the player base at the time didn't handle them like we do today)
I like to tickle the giants first
Every sub-experienced player telling me not to use auto pistol because it's bad and has no purpose
Also them wondering how the giant and horde coniviently get staggered in front of them.
I unironically pair it with hel rifle
I feel like there's 2 layers of reading here
The first one being that newbies vastly underestimate how much you can get away with for "early levels"
There are a few missions I enjoy hel rifle over another Hel like Hel Gun.
The second one being that weapons do not exist in a vacuum so if other people do not take stuff that actually damages stuff of course a staggering gun is going to look underwhelming
The first I don't really blame them
The second one I do blame them
There's also the point of "let me take whatever the heck I want" which is more than valid
It's also normally fine to take what you want
Only a few levels I can think of where equipment setup is important
While the first is true and yeah. The 2nd one is because most of them use auto pistol like a SMG/Machine pistol
Unless everyone is running like...pistol/SMG and then a sniper each
Obviously
Isn't the point of autopistol to sweep crowds to stun with the tungsten?
It's a lot reliant on the situation, which means not only what enemy spawns but also if they get in a chokepoint/corridor and you can fully make use of the penetration
IMHO of course
I like it and think it's fun, FTR
Naturally. I have fallen off Hel weapons generally except for Hel rifle tbh and rarely Hel shotgun.
Less scenarios in many rundown where you get a good choke to actually penetrate a crowd imo.
Not to mention Hel Gun isn't nearly as good as it was, though still strong tier.
Hel gun is almost functionally identical to how it was
Yeah you can't quickdrop enemies as hard now, but it's still busted
Not saying that it is a bad thing, it needed nerfing
I just don't enjoy how it feels to play now I guess?
Versus veruta, choke mod, Hel rifle, burst cannon
It's purely me being a picky bitch.
@little ridge do you know why the bot AI is refusing to path scans for people?
Because I have only seen it happening recently.
it's kinda an old bug, i've seen it since r7
it just kinda happens sometimes
also didn't hel gun get only one nerf, the 0.1 to 0.2 delay or somethin
Yes
No but I remember people accusing it since bots were introduced
Ah ok
Personally I've seen it 2-3 times BUT I've had it happen with big non-team scans too
so perhaps I just didnt notice it sometimes
I guess I just didn't see it till recently
Fun fact: if you get downed inside the circle they all get in
I rarely run with more than 1 bot with bio only so...
Primo trolls
I legit had that happen on a R3C1
I've had the ending screen successfull and I was the only one downed
Sure they didn't rush in to revive
Since they usually prioritise that
They did
I got downed at like 98% of scan
Ah ok
Not trolling bots then
I think deliberately trolley ai would be very funny.
If they could actually alert rooms and scouts it would be a nightmare.
I remember once in R6D3 I had a bot get in front of a sniper sentry and dying
Another bot went to save him and you know how it goes
all 3 got downed, I was laughing so hard
i did that once but backwards
i went into a sentry i died and the bot somehow didn't get shot i still have no idea how
That bot was God's true warrior
I don't know if it happens still since I never use sniper sentry lately but...
If you reloaded an empty one while standing in front of it, you immediately get shot by it.
ah I have a clip of that somewhere
I guess it still parses its previous command to shoot and you get yeeted.
Beautiful.
I actually had a run in R7D2 fail because of that.
I died reloading sentry, everyone else then got wiped.
i hate that bug
no embeds in this channel >:(

whats the med kits name in this game
Medipack

alr ima ping one thx guys
names wrong in the emote whut
You could just list
Doesn't mean the Discord server managers actually play the game itself
But nonetheless the name of that emote isn't wrong technically
like list hsu_zone 62 items??
List Zone_xxx (xxx being the zone number)
not much HSU_Zone
cause the hsu is a different thing, it's an item
u can just go ZONE_62
Shortened would be
list e_62
Another helpful one is to just
List Zone_62 U
or LIST RES E_XYZ, or even LIST U E_XYZ
It'll list majority of the helpful resources/Objectives
Btw, if someone knows anything I better explained what is happening with Sped's issue in #1049599987878723635
is there any way to walk slower like in tarkov
No
Unless you play on a controller technically
But that shouldn't affect movement towards sleepers at all
Any movement using wasd can be detected within range/visibility
When sleepers start pulsing. You'd best just stay still if you intend to not wake them up
(You can look around all you want though.)
Imagine if looking counted as movement.
my non existent pulse holdin the mouse would wake up everythin
i love accidentally going to the start of the zone instead of forward
Follow the signs on the doors
You'll rarely get lost if you do
@hollow quarry I'm spicing up my CV for potential employers. Do you mind if I use "QA Tester, 10 Chambers Collective (2019 - 2020)" under "Professional Experience & Skills".
:^)
what would go in place of the xyz
numbers
the zone number...
E_XYZ is short for ZONE_XYZ
dude the fucking bots keep taking the medkits
yes they nab everythin u kinda get away from
that's why i let em pick ammo n such only
otherwise all the medies r for me
That's alright, I prefer them having Medkits over anything else
Depends on how many bug reports you filed, with full repro and documentation
I have good news for you
Although never selected to be a bug hunter, I was active in the early GTFO testing process and offered valuable feedback and criticism of the early development process.
If you can get away with it, do it, some people might be annoyed if it's not an officially held position or wasn't paid
hope they don't ask for a reference ๐
I will be listing you as a references @hollow quarry and @untold ravine, expect MANY incoming calls from various eager employers. I only expect the best feedback from my time as a QA tester for GTFO.
aight we got 4 sentries and 2 trip mines i should be able to do this with bots
i might be able to finally beat r1c1
What mission again?
r1c1
got past the first test
It's gonna be tough
Bots will not go to scavenge supplies without you so you always have to be the one inserting the codes
The missions is built with an expectation that 1 guy stands near terminal on a standby and inserts codes at the very last second while others sprint to scramble ammo and tool from far away rooms
you dont need boosters
I meant to counter the need to run further back for supply.
But should be doable without, yes
On wave 6+ you can safely put code in, run for supply further back and make it back.
Before timer starts
Even as the code person.
you should only need two sentries unti wave 4. 6, 8
real time advice
?
its not lookin too goo
ez pz
a bot on bio helps you so so much
Yeah, tracked enemies with sentry will be more effective than the extra sentry.
this feels like one of the cutoff transmissions you read when selecting a level
I will scream incoherent for exactly five minutes.
guys i died and still dont know what bio is
Bio is still easier to line up your shots with
i got to 6 and ran outta ammo
Biotracker
And bots cheat with them so...
ya, it mostly for your benefit though, not sentries
yeah
The D-Tek Optron IV
i had bio tracker
Let bot use it
oh! give a bot the biotracker
Not yourself
Ah yes drop one burst make it a sniper
they cheat with it
They can cheat with them
ita sooo good
so u just tell them to biotrack and they
how did you have 4 sentries then? ๐คจ
okay ๐
automatic!
They automatically ping enemies
2 burst, 1 sniper, bio on BOT
They always biotrack anything automatically
you're set
No command needed
ez gg
yeah i gave them al
They also can shoot while tracking
Automodeed message :(
the hel shotgun
give em auto weps
Bot with Hel...
Probably wanna give them an assault rifle or burst rifle
no shotty's
You can use Hel at the hole entry choke point
MGs are also great on bots
But bots will suck with it
keeping everyone restocked on ammo and tool is very important
the key is to have every container open, ao when you run around to loot, the bots loot too
yeah but i dunno how the bots would refill their sentrys
it should start to make time back from not having peoplle loot while you do code
yaaaaa
might have to tell them to pick them up
but also, you priortize tool, bots prioritize medi anyway
Are you avoiding playing with other humans btw?
As in ingame matchmaking
Unlucky
Ah ok
Thats unfortunate then, fair enough
I could join ya later
Just bad timing or not enough visibility I suppose
In... Uh... 4 hours. 5.
does anyone know what cosmetics i get for rundown 1
been a month since update game slows down :/
Random
can you say spoilers if you put the discord spoiler thing on em
Even then, R1 and R4 are consistently most popular right now
sure
Shouldn't be terribly hard to get a group
not much will be a spoiler to the people chatting here rn tbh but yeah put some tags around it and thats ideal
does anyone know which rundown takes you to the ||alien planet||
|| 6 and 7 ||
if there is something to track they will do it automatically
(they can't biotrack sleeping enemies, only awake ones)
ideally the bots have meds and ammo and i have a tool refill so we can win
also, because you don't want them refilling meds/ ammo during waves, if everyone is full and they are still holding packs, friendly fire them until the spend their medi and ammo.
i am mot joking
bot strats are wild
dude whos pulse goes to 180 just from sprinting ๐
these guys are carrying a lot of stuff on their backs man cut them a little slack
true
mine went to 150 from almost getting run over by a car, but 190 from playing destiny 2
curious isn't it
It's canon that everyone in GTFO is asthmatic.
more like 190 from the space that destiny 2 takes up
and also have brittle legs
I should not have struggled to spell asthmatic, holy shit.
how do u make them pick up stuff
i wanted to start recording my gameplay to learn from my tapes, but Destiny Disk-space said NO
theres a 5 use medkit and they wont take it
Once you walk away, they will pick it up
and they will prioritize medi packs over everything
huge
Floor reaching for your leg 
should go smoothly
don't jinx it
you have the whole chat behind you
nahh, advice will help, but its practice and skill that will pull you through
Chell style
chel?
portal protagonist
She looks like she would give a little more sass back to Glad0s
legit telling them i need ammo and they not givin it dawg
Do the "I need x" commands actually do anything?
The only commands that work with bots is telling them to use tool
oh, and "follow me"
imagine you said "Scout!" and the bots all go take it down
While being immune to tentacles
did you use both of your guns?
Kinda busted
switching the bots off of shotguns alone is huge
๐ค
You'll need to go back to the start under some pressure though

the interface of the cortex has indeed been lost
ill try again in a few hours
maybe with breathing people
next time
people help A Lot
specifically people with executive function lol
Can I kill a charger scout by verbally abusing it?
only from behind
my favourite kind of people
sometimes you see a scary lack of competency
or people who pick up a two use ammo, and say "hey guys, I found it two use ammo, who gets it? should I just spend it on myself? All right, I can see everyone's ammo in tab looks at ammo levels OK I think me and purple are the lowest, I think I'll give it to those people. Wait, green has sniper. hey green, do you want more sniper ammo? How many bigs do you think are left in the level?"

when I get ammo I normally keep it to myself to cut down on social interaction or run after someone who needs it, if they're too far away I'll tell them to come so I can give them ammo
but then again I guess I do have map knowledge so
Imagine telling people there's ammo
I just force feed anyone I know who won't overstock on it or badly needs it.
executive function
We need to continue to lie that the game has no ammo
Ammo goes to whoever is furthest from capping on one of their guns and they have no choice in this
if its ammo, i just spend it like this
Ammo goes to the first person i reach that isn't myself if i dont need it
sorry 13/80 but this ammo is going to 60/50
Only really had to remind people who kept asking if anyone needs something that tab exists.
I've noticed some people read the text bobbing over peoples heads which is kinda weird
hits different when its my irl group ๐ฆ
elden ring is easier than this game
I mean completely true, yes
Elden Ring is balanced for solo to be fair
i cannot imagine anyone soloing r1c1
And is mechanically infinitely more polished
So yeah, true
I think someone did R4E1 solo today?
I'm sorry to break it to you but people have solo'd every level now
Which is very impressive.
Tnenpi got the second completion
is r4e1 hardx
hardest level in the game I think is generally agreed
E tier is the hardest available tier
almost sent a nsfw sticker on accident lol
And R4E1 has the spot for probably hardest levels ever
lol spirit summons fill the same role as bots imo, so i kinda disagree with this
You get one tho
And you can play no problem without ever using spirit summon
Just by learning attacks
Make sure you include vanilla there lol
And jumping instead of only dodge rolling
Very much.
Elden Ring is one of those games where you can choose to gimp yourself in any number of ways to select your difficulty settings
That level takes like an hour and majority of wipes happen either in the first 10 minutes or the last 10
and then you get to be elitist towards anyone who didn't also choose those restrictions ๐
But yeah true
does anyone know how to beat r1c1 with bots cuz they like dont use the essential supplies
Keep trying, maybe cheat yourself an infinite stamina or something
Otherwise you literally just need 1 more human to be in the terminal
real
2 people 2 bots is very manageable
And then you learn that a surprising number of attacks can be jumped, crouched or avoided with positioning
seeing people beat bosses just by walking around them is so cool
Artek it's not right to encourage cheating
Yeah, Nenpi got his EX clear and not just High clear, if it's done without doorbug then damn (it probably is through a mix of either shadow/giant kiting and being an absolute madman)
A lot with some cheese strats and some with glitch abuse tbh, but still. Its insane
can't imagine sitting down and long kiting for 4 hours, I think my body would die
did he post a vid
not yet I don't think, but I can check
Pachi did for his but he door bugged lel
He probably will post one soon, I think he normally does
Not the door bug
Long kiting seems too soul rending
not there yet but here's his channel https://www.youtube.com/@t-nenpi7325

oh my god
Not wrong
with a knife

anyway my solo r4e1 was scuffed asf
the long kite would be painful, 4 mom zone fucks
definetly hit something before going on the run
The life of true solo players
people soloing D and E tier levels are playing a different game
tbh it rly depends on the level
maybe you can end up pulling mom zone carefully and clearing the mothers
but I have no idea
i cannot imagine going through ||mom room || without at least giant kiting
there's some cfoam for you to do it, granted you get a good partial pull I guess
maan, idk how to consistently get 3 partial pulls in a row
maybe you just kite the mothers
thats just spawn based rly (and scream rng)
one scream and its over
warning. There are single moms in your area. Proceed with caution
I will never be that good and I am ok with that
Solo players trying to justify solo play being fun
I get to be sane instead
True
im just gonna get like 1k hours on this game and solo stuff for the street cred and what not
when you solo a level by shooting - pog
When you solo a level by 2 hour kite - 
I think the 4 mothers sleeping in the same room might not be single
1k :^ )
Solo players saying true solo is fun. Are just masochists
They are just each single
duos are rly fun true
Do you think C1 duo is easier than C1 with bots?
1k hours? Damn guys, guess I am a speedrunner.
that sounds really right
smh my head
1k hours that could have been spent trying to escape Australia
lolol
Help, they won't let us leave the continent.
1K is neither little nor a ton in this game rly
you can do a lot with itโฆ or not
The convict system is real.
wait
Hm. Duo. The ability to have someone do scavenging is too good. Turrets will solve the rest.
you can go into the facility

while the reactor tests are going
R1C1 duo is chill
but r1c1 with bots is also chill
Duo c1 means you can have one person keeping the bots in place for the firepower
1 needs more shooting brain power, the other needs bot ressource management)
I'm coming up on 920 hours, I think I got great mileage out of my 600-800 hours section
Don't SGX me here Eva ๐ Can you tell relative difficulties apart still? ๐
oh yea sure
was just thinking
SGX Activity 
Im assuming they mean actual duo, without bots. Just 2 people.
Yes they mean that
duo is probably harder for most players since you need to know how to carry the load of 2+ players
yeah of course
Some runners post duo speedrunning
having a player instead of a bot is obv better
how do you mean?
with bots you have to carry a bit more than 1 persons weight
but instead of 3 bots?
I think he thought you had to be in the reactor room
so id say 1 + 3 bots is easier
So he wasn't utilising bridge
OH GOD
Which is way better to defend
the biggest issue is having the bots actually take the right ressources
you can shoot wave 1-7 easily with some early picked up stuff + whats in bridge zone
Bots big dum dub
then scavenge the last wave
I've never actually tried it with bots but I imagine its annoying if you have to leave the frontline before the enemies are done
Where were you defending from?
and not having much time to loot after inserting code
That's exactly the issue
this can be avoided by shooting near the hole
You can kill wave before leaving frontline for code
the reactor
At hole
defend on bridge
only issues at all will be hybrids
Takes about 25 seconds to run to code
Bots do not work with time constraints, because all missions are build around the idea that squads can multitask.
so just have a sniper sentry or 2
so yall did r1c1 from the bridge
well yea
Yeah, it is horrible to defend from there.
closer to ressources, better sightline, closer enemy spawns
You wanna stay at end of bridge and defend in front of the hole
ohhh ya, bridge, and the hole south of it, are the way
This reminds me that my only C1 wipe was in the tunnel leading to the reactor
Sightlines are kinda cringe in there
Bridge though... Sniping galore
Imagine if sleepers could attack and damage the reactor
Average reactor moment
or if sentries had HP
I think GTFO is too jank for it though.
they could maybe try emulate it
just have the object be unreachable and you just have to survive at an extraction point for 90 minutes while someone drops you resources/items
:3
kiting 
R7c2 secondary
@shut vapor was thinking where there was a XII
not in vanilla is there
Heroes never die
ok, right. You make the entire mission a straight corridor with 1 or 2 sector doors (no regular doors because doorbug). At one end is the drop down, the other is the forward extract/defend point)
yea thats why i was confused with them mentioning XII
Wasn't there a pseudo class 9 S on r5d1
yeah there were the funny cluster sustains
It would be cool if there was an alarm that just put out all of its scan areas at once so you could plan the route you tackle them in and don't have to wait for travel lines, kinda like the cluster S section in R5D1
I think it was a class 8 diminished with 2 cluster sustains
BC scans lol
It suddenly dawned on me that R5 is coming
I am sure that exists in the forbidden land of mods.
For 0,01 of a second I felt despair
They do but they are glorified cluster scans
The interesting scans are the duo and trio scans
But i know why they'll never be added to vanilla
No
I was thinking thats a simple answer but didn't want to get all doomer xD
thats the ALT ceew
Scans either require everyone or 1 person
they will bring back actual resources and team time for R8
I know, I just wanted to be a memelord
they have to
You can't guarantee that for 2 or 3 size
sweats
guys? guys??




Couldn't the scan just then scale off a percentile
You need 75% of total team
So 3/4
2/3
Naw but like if you are solo
So on
What do
Then it would just act as a solo
flash scans are cool
Basically an adaptive scan
Devs aren't interested enough for adaptive kinds of scans
do they complete instantly?
The real shame is no team scan on extract
Only with a full team of 4 in it
oh thats neat
Actually needing your team to survive
Otherwise its slow as balls
How about a scan that only works on a Tuesday relative to your timezone and with sawn off shotgun equipped.
Scan that toggles between increasing and decreasing progress when players are inside every 4 seconds
Oh so you gotta dance in and out?
yeah xD Sounds really annoying
Might be asking too much coordination
Jim get in the scan! Not now! get out!
Lag delay aside too
Ritual scans where you need to stand in the correct region to progress. And you tell by deciphering a sigil in the scan
I read region as religion
Regular scan circles, unless you get all four people in, then it flash completes
Love hanging fruit: a scan that is proportional to amount of dead enemies.
1 striker = 1%
I'm surprised it's not a thing...
Also true
Scans which explode on completion
So the more you kill from inside the more it goes up?
they despawn now
On the topic of things we want ingame
I want scout that walks on walls and roof, thanks.
Or just some enemy like that.
Maybe it's not even you who must be in the scan but the enemies. Like a dedicated kill zone.
I want enemies that move through the rocks as a mechanic not a bug
SPITTERS SPITTERS SPITTERS
Scout spitters exist
