[feral vessel]

For your consequences

[lunar island]

Just to suffer?

[hollow quarry]

We are not tossing it, and no, cause that was never the plan

[latent palm]

Im banned from using the bathroom

this is so sad

can i get an F

[rose nova]

Z

dammit

[lunar island]

Y

[latent palm]

[hollow quarry]

There are no bathrooms in GTFO

[feral vessel]

Well that is the greatest idea to get your playerbase mad.

[latent palm]

sadly so

[feral vessel]

Since they're always saying no DLC.

[latent palm]

ppl gotta dump in the HSU's

[serene jewel]

Bathrooms confirmed for r8?

[hallow vigil]

I mean the team is moving on to another game, in the past when other dev teams have done the same their older games get forgotten

[latent palm]

both canteens and bathroom confirmed

if not we make our own bathroom and canteens

[rose nova]

piss on the omneco tanks

[lunar island]

But yeah honestly, if this game is going to in any way survive after r8, the outstanding community is going to need to move over to the modded scene or they'll just run out of content or people to play it with

[golden totem]

You're telling me the phytology tilesets just cart all the dirt down there themselves and don't use home-grown fertilizers??

[latent palm]

i will sent 24 microwaves on same day shipping towards @hollow quarry

[hollow quarry]

No content, yes, but we are not removing it from the internet.

[latent palm]

bless those 24hrs workers

[lunar island]

I've seen other completed games like this go down to 30 players/day

[hallow vigil]

I don’t think I said “get removed” 🤔

[hollow quarry]

I would love a living modding scene past R8

[rose nova]

exactly

sorry

had to

[latent palm]

man Calle is so based guys

[hollow quarry]

And to be fair, most people don’t run out of content. Just the craziest ones 😉

[lunar island]

I've been doing my part to keep my stuff running. It'll still be up. The question here really is if people would stick around for that after the vanilla has ended

[latent palm]

i mean

modding has never failed to surprise me

[lunar island]

True, though most of the people I know are the ones to 100% rundowns

[hollow quarry]

True, just wanted to emphasise that

[latent palm]

ooooookay

back to LFGing

[rose nova]

ok, back to writin about gtfo

[pine root]

Few more ideas still in the work!

[lunar island]

The statistics of only like 30% completing later expeditions is still very surprising to me

[hollow quarry]

Ofc, the most dedicated players

[pine root]

pretty exciting to say the least

[latent palm]

@hollow quarry when can we get image perms in all chats?

[outer gull]

Been doing my part 🫡

STFU, the sequel to the hit game gtfo :p

[latent palm]

i want to post the funni about the hit game GTFO

[quartz cape]

It’s called CyberHeist

[rose nova]

cyberstfu

[latent palm]

cyberstfu

[sharp sapphire]

Honestly, what would be awesome if (after R8) 10C implements proper Steam Workshop support, and even a map editor or map generator. Then there's basically unlimitted content.

[gusty burrow]

GTFR becomes ascendant procedural level generation, even generating brand new objective types and tiles, infinite content

[latent palm]

god pls no not steam workshop

[pine root]

oh you know that is the end idea

[rose nova]

the idea of auto generated maps its been tossed a lot, no it wouldnt work

[pine root]

I have to nerf it so much tho

[latent palm]

i dont want Hackket turning into a anime girl

[outer gull]

Nah I just named my modded rundown after a dumb joke my friends and I made ages ago lmao

[latent palm]

[outer gull]

It works tho lol

[lunar island]

That'd require a change in the way they make levels. Each change, regardless how minor in the LevelLayout.db requires a complete reload of the entire game

[quartz cape]

I mean the sequel to gtfo, 10cc’s next game

[sharp sapphire]

As far as I know, it was originally meant to be randomly generated maps - but of course things changed pretty early on.

[pine root]

It already exists

[outer gull]

Im very curious as to what the new game will be lol

[pine root]

we use unity and lg tuner and we basically have a complete level editor

[hollow quarry]

It was, but today it’s more of a hybrid model

[lunar island]

Too unstable with holes in generated terrain if you ask me. I know this pain deeply

Levels need refinement after the first generation

[rose nova]

oki i didnt know that

[unreal crystal]

Config file comment here

[rose nova]

ill write that down

[sharp sapphire]

No, absolutely. I agree on the whole level generation thing. I know the framework is there in the engine, but then the work needed to make it generate properly... I understand why 10C took the direction they did :P

[hollow quarry]

As Frosty said, there are generation in the start but a lot of tinkering to get it good

[lunar island]

Each level in Projekt Thermonuclear took like 8-9 passes regenning stuff to remove holes and it still averages 2-3 holes hidden in geometry. Vanilla stuff I haven't been able to find ONE. They must do dozens and dozens of passes

[outer gull]

A completely randomized level wouldnt have good flow anyways, it takes some hand tuning and structure to make a good level

[hollow quarry]

Hear hear

[sharp sapphire]

Something I'd love to be able to do is to piece together my own level from the geomorphs/pieces available.

[pine root]

I mean we play on using Tetris pieces

There is logic is level generation

[outer gull]

Check out the modding server and youcan learn to do so

[pine root]

Only so many things you can do with data block editing

[toxic umbra]

I have a feeling that the modding community will grow pretty large after R8 lol

[unreal crystal]

These randomised r7d2s have been more fun than the actual r7d2

[pine root]

But it still uses the d2 structure

[unreal crystal]

Of course

[lunar island]

It's already quite big. There are dozens if not hundreds of completely custom rundowns

[outer gull]

True but r7d2 is overall a very straightforward level

[pine root]

We can go better and make new structures as well using peices of levels

[hollow quarry]

They will hopefully enjoy us not breaking stuff with every update

[pine root]

All levels are tbh

[outer gull]

That being said I do enjoy the randomizer mods being developed

[pine root]

This game is liner

[latent palm]

its a badass feature am i right?

playing on diff tilesets every damn time

[outer gull]

BASED CALLE

[unreal crystal]

This is the end goal

[pine root]

It is the best part the plug-ins won’t break anymore

[latent palm]

doubt

imagine they pull a capcom moment

[pine root]

How will it break

How

[latent palm]

and break every plugins

[toxic umbra]

I definitely will enjoy that

[hollow quarry]

🤣

[rose nova]

for r8 the entire code will be rewritten ahre

[quartz cape]

Calle pls don’t fix pause exploit thx

[pine root]

I wouldn’t mind

If it made it simpler to find things

[outer gull]

I mean I guess, but I feel like more complex level design where pe interracts with the other objectives can cause problems for randomization while still maintaining a fun level.

Then again I just make levels with creative scenarios, I'll let yall do the randomizing ;p

[hollow quarry]

Typical community moment. “Please fix bugs, but not the ones we like” 🥹

[latent palm]

imagine modding on DMC5 and capcom updates a singular 1byte and ruins your whole weekend of "I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING"

very based

[pine root]

Yeah no worries sorry for when we random you stuff

[latent palm]

have to do it all over again

[pine root]

You can’t stop it

[lunar island]

Isn't door glitch still a thing? That's been in the game since like r2 or r3

[latent palm]

imagine downgrading GTFO

[unreal crystal]

so have a decent few bugs

[outer gull]

The inquisition D2 randomized map layout definitely was interesting xD

[hollow quarry]

We fixed the “easier” exploit

[lunar island]

Playstation 2 gtfo

[unreal crystal]

But I feel like we’ve had this discussion before

[latent palm]

no

[pine root]

We have

[latent palm]

playstation 1 GTFO

based

[hallow vigil]

Honestly if they can fix the visual bugs >.>

[hollow quarry]

But over all, exploits that require specific/deliberate actions are low prio

[pine root]

Yeah makes sense

[latent palm]

happens to me every once in 500 times ive loaded the game

skill issue

[languid sand]

Hey Im new, is there a GTFO lore archive channel ? I dont see it at the moment if there is/was

[hallow vigil]

It happens to me all the time

[latent palm]

archive?

[lunar island]

Brooooo the big black dot is still a thing

What even causes it

[hallow vigil]

The blood multiplies and grows on my screen

[latent palm]

i mean

i get punch by giants

[toxic umbra]

well i’m off to make an overly dramatic video on the announcement as usual o7

[latent palm]

and my screen goes blue

so id say realism

[languid sand]

I came here after browsing the wiki and it said the discord channel had an archive, I might be wrong

[lunar island]

Dabededabadai

Any void bug enjoyers in chat?

[hallow vigil]

I’ve had the snatcher bug, the black dot and the blood

[quartz cape]

I’ll send you the chimp theory doc when I get home

[torn grove]

I haven't had snatcher bug before

[latent palm]

i fall off the map 69420 times

[torn grove]

I have had piss bug tho

[rose nova]

i wish consumable duplication was still a thing so i could have 700 glowis

[latent palm]

does that counts?

[hallow vigil]

It’s horrible

[torn grove]

Damn u have me beat

[latent palm]

fr fr

i love going into the GTFOrooms

[hallow vigil]

The noodles are permanently on the screen if you don’t get snatched again

[torn grove]

Piss bug just makes it look like u have a blue light filter on and u can't get rid of it until the end of a run

[latent palm]

It is funny let them keep going

[torn grove]

[latent palm]

[unreal crystal]

You should elaborate friend

I’m curious on what you have to say on this topic

[pine root]

I am too

Probs one of the greatest minds of our time

[torn grove]

Falling Fast by seven lions? I love that song!

[unreal crystal]

He’s shy

His opinion has never been worth this much before

[latent palm]

@lunar island check our vc status

[pine root]

Don’t give them an out pls we want to know their opinions

[torn grove]

But it's a good song :((

[quartz cape]

I don’t see anyone here who asked

[tall hawk]

true

[rose nova]

i never see question

thats on #gtfo-related-questions

:[

never ask here

[latent palm]

[unreal crystal]

[quartz cape]

Found the streamer

[unreal crystal]

It is me

[wispy bluff]

I refuse to expand further, since that's not why I'm here. If you know - you know. Go subscribe to some YouTube channels, they do it as full time job.

[rose nova]

found the r2d1 statistics

[unreal crystal]

LOL

artek you’re such a coward

you should be headstrong

[rose nova]

well, like always
i remind people that the GTFO code of conduct goes as:

• Never use discriminatory language, including but not limited to references to race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, sex, sexual preference, or religion.

[unreal crystal]

And ready to take on anyone

Id love to hear your views on many things

[wispy bluff]

I know. I also know exactly where these conversations lead to and it's literally NEVER productive, so let's not waste time.

[unreal crystal]

disappointing

didn’t even get a slur out of you

What’s even the point

[rose nova]

they didnt used beaner against me im so sad

[quartz cape]

Would you tell me cause we’re besties

[lunar island]

Vc status? What's that?

[latent palm]

discord updates

[sharp owl]

whatsapp status

[latent palm]

on Vc you can set what ur doing in it

[rose nova]

stratus is a car company

[latent palm]

so you would see R1B1 or Sussy Runs

[sharp owl]

R.I.P tuho

[latent palm]

@tall hawk he dead

[lunar island]

I don't understand

[latent palm]

maybe?

real?

[latent palm]

nvm

[unreal crystal]

guys I’m so disappointed

[rose nova]

is a thing where if u join a vc, theres a lil text u can customize that can say anythin about what ur doin

[latent palm]

took the words right out of my mouth

ty slendi

[lunar island]

But like why do I need to check it

And how? I'm not in a vc

[tall hawk]

they wanted you to see they are playing your mod

[rose nova]

idk they probs wrote somethin funny on it kmkdms
u join the vc and u can see it, or maybs u can see it w/o joinin just lookin at the vc

[lunar island]

Your not supposed to play modded on the official server tho

[wispy bluff]

Perhaps that is the joke

[quartz cape]

Half the people here play with mods

[wispy bluff]

"QoL" ones.
Allegedly

[tall hawk]

the perfectboosters infestation

[leaden beacon]

then sees ppl running w/fog turbine/cell

[ivory sky]

i only play with qol

[latent palm]

that is the joke

:L

[wispy bluff]

See? I've tapped into his wavelength.

[quartz cape]

Autism to autism communication

[latent palm]

[latent palm]

always did ER dude

[wispy bluff]

Unironically

[unreal crystal]

I only play with QOL mods such as run and gun, perfect boosters, heroic heart and shoot in the air

[quartz cape]

Unironically

[unreal crystal]

LMFAO

[wispy bluff]

Half of those sound like xcom perks

Dafaq is heroic heart

Infinite stamina?

[unreal crystal]

No stam

[quartz cape]

Infinite stam

[wispy bluff]

Another wavelength tapped

[leaden beacon]

Lol

[wispy bluff]

Boring, people. Boring.

[golden totem]

People calling negating the stam change back to not existing a QoL mod is endlessly funny

[wispy bluff]

Shoot in the air though.

[unreal crystal]

Most of the people you see using those mods still end up dying first anyways

[wispy bluff]

Can I not shoot while falling off a cliff?

[quartz cape]

You misspelled “I”

[unreal crystal]

yeah my perfect provisions can’t save me from the surge that I tried to kite

mountainman do you remember a time

[quartz cape]

Grab a pause exploit

[unreal crystal]

Where I had huge ambitions

I was gonna spear kite r3a3

[quartz cape]

Those were the days

[unreal crystal]

truly

I never even tried it when r3 dropped

I just went for the r3d1 grind

[quartz cape]

we thought we could do anything

Predictable.

[unreal crystal]

R3D1? Really? A man of your talents?

[quartz cape]

Pabulum clears are the real show of skill

[wispy bluff]

Why is pabulum a meme again...

I don't remember anything special about it.

Granted I don't remember it period.

[quartz cape]

It’s 1:30 on a good day

[wispy bluff]

Ah, right.

[quartz cape]

Gerz can’t beat it because she needs the instant gratification of an r3d1 clear screen every 25 minutes

[unreal crystal]

It’s true

[median rivet]

Anyone had the snatcher bug where he just snaps your neck 90 degrees

[unreal crystal]

No

that’s the scp 173 feature

You didn’t look at him

[median rivet]

Not horizontal but vertical

Like if you tilted your head

[tired patrol]

Hello, how sectors are setup ? please

[median rivet]

Makes the game very funny

[quartz cape]

depends on the level

[tired patrol]

R1A1 for example

i would like to have secondary objectives

[quartz cape]

There is only one sector then, main

Secondary objectives begin showing up at r4

[tired patrol]

Aaah ok

[mint light]

there is no sec until R4

go on and relax. you really can't miss them

[tired patrol]

Thanks guys

[median rivet]

Enjoy the relaxing levels

It only goes down hill

[mint light]

Not reslly

[median rivet]

Sometimes it feels like that

[mint light]

R7 and R6 are easier than R5 and R4

So yeah......

[median rivet]

R3c1 is the bane of my existence

[wispy bluff]

Im very happy that I'll be able to just blast through R6 for once

[mint light]

Ez pz

[median rivet]

And it really shouldn’t be that hard

If my one friend didn’t straf in front of me during the extraction we would have been fine

[mint light]

It isn't

[pine root]

🐕📯

[wispy bluff]

Took a double take, but I got it

[quartz cape]

I don’t get it

Why is the dog farting into a tuba

[wispy bluff]

That was the first take

[quartz cape]

Is the dog running away from the tuba?

[sharp owl]

my burst sentry is literally doing nothing in reactor

i dont know why

[pine root]

I personally think the dog is farting into the tuba

[pine root]

Where have you placed it

[wispy bluff]

How does it look like and how do you come to conclusion that it does nothing

[sharp owl]

i never see it slowing anything down and i don't hear it shooting

[pine root]

???

[wispy bluff]

Like, at all? That's weird.

[sharp owl]

i'm not actively paying attention to it but it feels like it's not doing stuff

[pine root]

Is it not in front of you

[sharp owl]

it is

[pine root]

when you are holding the hole

[quartz cape]

Does it’s ammo go down

[sharp owl]

i'm too dead to be able to see

[quartz cape]

Can you check between waves when you refill it

[sharp owl]

i'll try another spot

yeah i can if i survive the first wave ecks dee

[pine root]

Idk where your placing it

[wispy bluff]

Are you trying to solo R1C1

[pine root]

Yeah

Seems like it

[sharp owl]

yeah i guess

[wispy bluff]

Hmmmmmm

[pine root]

Gl probs that a hel gun

[quartz cape]

Try a cheese spot

[sharp owl]

i tried a cheese spot but i need to leave the spot to go to the reactor

and thus get wrecked instantly

[wispy bluff]

Damn the sniper sentry nerf

[sharp owl]

also i'm really butthurt about the precision rifle not one shotting things far away

[wispy bluff]

If it wansnt so shit - you could put that in the catwalk overseeing the trucks.

It got amazing sightline from there

Starts shooting them as soon as they leave the hole in the wall.

Maybe burst can see from there too.

[quartz cape]

using precision rifle may be the problem

[rose nova]

why r u runnin pr

[hollow merlin]

Are you not hitting headshots or

[sharp owl]

my strat was to use it to thin out the crowd as it spawned in

the thermals allow me to shoot things really far away

no i am

[wispy bluff]

Imagine not using the literal meta when you solo

[sharp owl]

but it doesn't deal enough damage

because they're too far away

[wispy bluff]

IKR

You need some of that HEL Action.

Just bring HEL Rifle, literally an upgrade.

[rose nova]

or the hel gun which is, a bit more flexible

[wispy bluff]

You can easily get double and triple kills as they try to take a turn around the hole.

[sharp owl]

yeah you're probably right

im very awkward with HEL

[hollow merlin]

pr should still one shot strikers from 50m away, so you are rather far away yeah

[sharp owl]

i hit a shooter

maybe that was the problem idk

[rose nova]

the pr i think has a bullet that disappears sooner than other guns

but i could b misinfo

idk for sure at all

[hollow merlin]

shooter is also 50m

[analog flicker]

PR has 30m range before damage fall off even begins iirc.

It's the damage falloff end that bullets do nothing.

[rose nova]

30m
70m

so, yeah

30 of falloff start

70 of end

[wispy bluff]

Is there even a map with 70 meters of just raw distance

[rose nova]

... r1c1?

[analog flicker]

The angles you're shooting

[rose nova]

r7d2?

[analog flicker]

Aren't 70m though are they?

[last parrot]

is falloff linear

the damage that is

[hollow merlin]

we assume so

[wraith marsh]

Yes

[analog flicker]

There is a formula on the wiki if you want to get specific with it

[gusty burrow]

Wondering how falloff works? https://gtfo.fandom.com/wiki/Damage_Falloff

[junior latch]

they can be :>

[rose nova]

probs it was far away enough the dmg didnt reached the threshold

[gusty burrow]

haha no I definitely didn't write that page and just want people to validate me

[rose nova]

:3

u did a good job

pat

[sharp owl]

very good job

[wraith marsh]

Shooters get overkilled more than strikers to the head from 1 tap weapons

[sharp owl]

numbers are good

[analog flicker]

Shooters have more hp than strikers. But they have bigger head multi / head that doesn't get destroyed until dead

[hollow merlin]

Lot of the time with pr I just hit the body for some reason. Think the aiming reticle is slightly lower than it should be.

[sharp owl]

i swapped to hel rifle

[analog flicker]

Aiming too high wouldn't it?

It is a arrow sight which people aren't always used to.

Iirc that is.

[hollow merlin]

So do you put the head on the tip or at the bottom

Or in the middle

I use the tip of the arrow

[analog flicker]

The tip of the arrow

[burnt flume]

Maybe arrow is telling you where the bullet will go

[analog flicker]

It seems more you aren't used to the sight

[wispy bluff]

I tried using the tip of the arrow and it still misses

[analog flicker]

(Probably DMRs as well I'm assuming)

[burnt flume]

Maybe it's an aim thing, although some of the sights do fucking blow

[wispy bluff]

Annoying as shit

[analog flicker]

I can't really think the sight being funky aside from krill issue

[rose nova]

skrillex issue

[hollow merlin]

I just aim slightly higher to avoid body shots.

Whether that’s a game issue or a me issue whatever

[analog flicker]

Most reasons I see/hear people hating precision rifle sight is the zoom magnification on it.

If it's from vets. They have other reasons to hate it

[hollow merlin]

Other than efficiency it’s rather strong no

[analog flicker]

It's only really useful in select levels

[peak lotus]

They didnt say when r8 is right?

[analog flicker]

(I say this but I literally use budget Precision Rifle using Pdw/Revolver)

[rose nova]

not, really
it has very low base dmg if its what chu mean by strong

[analog flicker]

Probably better/more consistent with Pdw/Helrifle

[rose nova]

cant kill a big one in a mag from the front

[analog flicker]

Revolver and Precision Rifle have similar damage values fyi

However pr has better range/Precision

[rose nova]

and revo is a speed smol weapon

nanoseconds reload

[hollow merlin]

I see it as revolver with easier sights to aim longer range with thermal and better preci multi, trading that for ammo efficiency.

[analog flicker]

Revo still has range capabilities as well. But it needs headshots to to get any efficacy

[analog flicker]

Hence I use budget pr
Pdw/revo

Pdw ads > quick swap shot with revo

Though this combo is better with hel rifle

[hollow merlin]

Combat shotgun works too, since they’d be close anyways

And spray and pray

[analog flicker]

You wouldn't want to pdw ads Quickswap combat tho.

You would be quick swapping it regardless of the thermal

[sharp owl]

r1c1 is suprisingly good for farming boosters

lots of aggressive and bold artifacts laying around

[analog flicker]

Not exactly given the time frame.

[sharp owl]

and the map is super easy to go through

[analog flicker]

People would prefer a faster level to farm

[sharp owl]

don't you keep artifacts when you quit a mission?

[analog flicker]

Technically yes

[sharp owl]

so what's the problem

[last parrot]

not optimal

[wispy bluff]

Level heat dies faster

Since it dies with deployments, not pick ups

[last parrot]

thats not what the wiki says

[analog flicker]

Optimally you'd need several different levels to farm boosters

[thick temple]

pretty certain it dies with pickups, yeah

[wispy bluff]

But the death only applies to next run right?

[thick temple]

what?

[rose nova]

till the next time u run the level again yeah

its 100% until u repeat it

[wispy bluff]

Ie: I pick up an arti in the first room right after the drop and then another one at literally extraction zone

They have same value as long as its the same run

Or not?

[last parrot]

oh yeah

[thick temple]

what, towards decreasing heat, or increasing booster prog?

[last parrot]

heat drop only updates after you go back up

[thick temple]

oh, yeah

[junior burrow]

So what are the best levels for farming boosters to cycle through?

[wispy bluff]

Anything that's easy to beat quickly. Find yourself LRF and keep flashing it around.

So basically any A-B levels. Bonus points for secondary objectives as I noticed some of them have tendency to have more artifacts inside of them.

So something like R7B3 without overload.

And even that's too much.

[sharp owl]

Is farming for them ever necessary

I always feel weird using them because the run couls just die from bad luck and they'll be wasted

[wispy bluff]

I remember R6B2 having like 5 artifacts a room, it was like finding the loot cave

[bold remnant]

I did it! I solod (w bots) a gtfo lvl

[sharp owl]

Yoo

Nice

[wispy bluff]

You get so many muteds and bolds and you can just spam them, minus the best ones for when you are very sure in your attempt.

Agressive though... They are special occasion only.

[sharp owl]

Which boosters are the best in general

Or i guess what buff is best

[wispy bluff]

• Supply efficiency
• bioscan speed
• HP regen cap

[sharp owl]

Mhm

I'm always tempted to equip bioscan speed for the alarms

[wispy bluff]

Oh and I forgot:

• infection resist

Stack 99% and completely invalidate green fog

[sharp owl]

You can do that?

[hollow merlin]

Yes

[wispy bluff]

Yep.

[hollow merlin]

Though it doesnt help you see better

[sharp owl]

I've always seen those numbers in like 10-15%

[hollow merlin]

But it’s broken enough already

[wispy bluff]

Some agreessives can give 70%

Then you throw 30% bold on top and bam

[sharp owl]

That seems extremely excessive

[wispy bluff]

Infection is no longer a thing for you

[hollow merlin]

I have a 80 aggressive and just need to pair with 19 muted

Shits dumb

[sharp owl]

So we can canonically create immunity for namv

[wispy bluff]

Eh, sort of.

[true pilot]

we dont know if fog is nam-v

[wispy bluff]

You technically still get infected.

[hollow merlin]

No one said boosters dont come with long term side effects

[wispy bluff]

Just VEEEEEERY slowly

You'd have to stand in fog for an hour

[sharp owl]

Well, that's still a win

[true pilot]

im pretty sure boosters are addictive

[sharp owl]

If you have long term side effects that means you lived loh enough to experience them xD

[sharp owl]

How do you know

[true pilot]

henrikson

If we trust schafer

he really wanted a booster

[hollow merlin]

Wow they even have booster lore

[true pilot]

yes

in a whole one level

and thats it

=)

[wispy bluff]

We have logs that reffers to boosters

[true pilot]

and then theres logs im sure there are some on boosters

Yeah

[hollow merlin]

Are they also referred to as “boosters”

[sharp owl]

Also ever since i saw the worm inside the bold artifacts

Cant help but notice

Every bold has a worm

Which is gross

[hollow merlin]

on lowest settings. Boosters are just orange polygon solids.

[wispy bluff]

They are artifacts after all

[true pilot]

its not just bold

All have something inside them

[wispy bluff]

Although why would Warden reward collecting them...

Thsts a whole other rabbit hole

[true pilot]

i mean historic/scientific value shit

i dunno

[sharp owl]

It runs experiments on them

Probably the most obvious reason

It requires every snippet of information it can get to understand the infection parasite wombo combo

Probably how it created those mimics

[wispy bluff]

Then it would be our primary objective, like collecting GLP canisters

[true pilot]

for all we know warden might just not care about nam-v

[wispy bluff]

But instead it's so optional thst most players opt out of it

So clearly its not that useful or needed

[true pilot]

i would assume maybe its like curiosities

it keeps them for fun

if we assume its an alien lifeform maybe they remind it of home

or some shit like that

[sharp owl]

Maybe it uses them to create the boosters

[wispy bluff]

No, that's not it either.

Boosters are rewards for it, drugs for a job well done.

[sharp owl]

I have no idea as well because if it can just make boosters you logically should be supplying them to prisoners without restriction to improve odds

[true pilot]

i mean its a good question if there are any factory lines still working in garganta

and if they were also controlled by biocom

[sharp owl]

A lab or two might work

With robotic arms

I can see it being a thing in the technologically advanced complex in the year 2055

They probably have automatic labs

[true pilot]

well i doubt we ever get an answer

or maybe R8 will have a log on literally everything

[sharp owl]

I also doubt the warden does anything for fun

[true pilot]

I mean the prisoners choose to grab the artifacts

so they can be used for truly anything

[rough robin]

I figured the artifacts (and what's inside them) were used to create boosters

That's why the aggressive ones were described as dangerous / toxic

[quartz cape]

i think boosters are just heroin

[unreal crystal]

thats why theyre s tier mountainman

[quartz cape]

play tradle next time

[languid sand]

Hey, what's the best channel to look for other players to play with? Me and a friend are looking for ppl for R1D1

[rose nova]

hello, u can check the LFG channels to find n share lobbies

.t lfg

[foggy plank]

Hello! If you are unaware, we have Looking For Group (LFG) channels to help users group up and play the game. They are located here: #lfg-north-america / #lfg-latin-america / #lfg-eastern-europe / #lfg-western-europe / #lfg-asia / #lfg-oceania / #lfg-africa / #lfg-beginners.

If you are unsure of how to create or join a lobby, please see the instructions here: #how-to-matchmake.

[rose nova]

just some funk advice
always ask to not be carried and make sure that everyone joinin ur lobby joins ur voice channel

[languid sand]

oke

[rough robin]

heroins a downer though

[quartz cape]

you would know, junkie

[rough robin]

god gives his strongest narcotics to his silliest soldiers

[still sparrow]

So based on the recent post in #community-news , does that mean R8 won't be out til 2025?

[rose nova]

if u mena the 'fast foward a decade', no, it means 10c was founded in 2015 or so, r8 will come out probs next year i would think, like how usual rundowns used to come out

[still sparrow]

Yeah 6'ish months per is kinda what I figured. It was just that decade remark that had me wondering

[rose nova]

no yeah 10c is the one that has like a decade old or so

[still sparrow]

Roger. Just been waiting for a hot minute lol

I know a lot of us are eager to see how they wrap it all up

[rose nova]

fairs

[velvet horizon]

whys it so hard to find a match ive completed one mission solo in the 9 months ive had the game😭

[wispy bluff]

Are you using in game matchmaking or local LFG channels

These:

.t lfg

[foggy plank]

Hello! If you are unaware, we have Looking For Group (LFG) channels to help users group up and play the game. They are located here: #lfg-north-america / #lfg-latin-america / #lfg-eastern-europe / #lfg-western-europe / #lfg-asia / #lfg-oceania / #lfg-africa / #lfg-beginners.

If you are unsure of how to create or join a lobby, please see the instructions here: #how-to-matchmake.

[velvet horizon]

in game

i just joined the server like 10 minutes aagp

[wispy bluff]

Found the issue. It's dead, everyone's here.

[velvet horizon]

ahhhhh

[rose nova]

in here is more comfy either ways

just some advice for usin those channels
always ask to not be carried and make sure that everyone joinin ur lobby joins ur voice channel

and if you havent already u can do the tutorial first [Training] and start on rundown 1 since its the simplest one

[velvet horizon]

im on R1B1 the PID search

[junior latch]

theres specific channels for that (specifically lfg beginners)

tho you might have to make them visible

via channels and roles (at the top)

[velvet horizon]

oh okay okay ty

[rose nova]

[there u can also pick ur pronouns and ur fav melee]

[wispy bluff]

I'm starting to think no one actually reads the mod lfg message

Or they read the words, but don't acquire any info from them.

To be fair: that message needs some formatting

[velvet horizon]

im kinda dumb when it comes to all this to keep it real

[rose nova]

no its oki

[velvet horizon]

like i enjoy the game just i know itwould be better with real ppl lol

[wispy bluff]

Yeah, it's fine, this game is surprisingly high maintanance compared to the alternatives. Just take your time and read carefully.

[velvet horizon]

these bots can only do so much

[wispy bluff]

Oh, trust me: we know

[velvet horizon]

so how do i go about setting this up

[leaden beacon]

#how-to-matchmake

[wispy bluff]

LFG - R1 - A1
(room code)
(voice chat link)

[devout girder]

Ye I hope the bots get a bit more improved.

I'm not very sociable and have only played with like a small few people from here. Anxious as you can tell lmao

Just wish there was a way to enjoy the game without having be incredibly sociable with people I never spoke to before

[wispy bluff]

Room code is acquired in game by pressing "copy lobby ID" button, VCs are found here, all 200 of them

Just join any empty one, right click, copy

how'd you do it so fast ?

Its a coop game designed from the ground up to be the communication heavy and with a lot of talking to strangers

[latent palm]

[devout girder]

Yeah so my predicament is pretty rough lmao. It's no issue though! Just a me thing!

[sharp siren]

Im a good example

I was like that but then i said "thats psy shit" and look at me now

Harrast a developer

[wispy bluff]

There's a "better bots" mod out there, but it cracks them up to insane level beating the game for you. They become walking Team Fortress 2 LV2 sentries.

[sharp siren]

Dead youtube channel

And probable some ties to terrorism

Its increadible what you can get when been social!

[devout girder]

lol I see

[sharp siren]

None of those statements are lies neither

[latent palm]

fr fr

[sharp siren]

Well except the terrorist part

[wispy bluff]

Socialising always ends up hurting me in the end. Because once the stream of consciousness is open - it never closes, and the waterfall of bullshit turns people against me.

[latent palm]

better bots makes you go unstopable

[wispy bluff]

Also everyone finds my tacticool shit antics cringe.

They never say it, but I can feel it.

free now TOM?!?!

[sharp owl]

shlorps when

[visual jungle]

where rundown 10

[sharp owl]

Schaeffer has access to it

[wispy bluff]

Trailer, 2 community announcements... Still no rundown.

This might be out of order.

[sharp owl]

4 potential release dates
2 days Away from thé first one
Hope

[junior latch]

^^^

[sharp owl]

i got my first hood from r2d1

[tidal jay]

So after R8, it's over for GTFO aside game fixes?

[sharp owl]

seems like it

[tidal jay]

That's rough man

[sharp owl]

eh

[rose nova]

is sad yeh

but well

was bound to happen someday

[sharp owl]

the game kinda needs to stop the desync stupidity

eventually

it's a multiplayer game

[rose nova]

hopefully it stais alive with moddin community

[sharp owl]

maybe that'll cause a fix

[rose nova]

sounds like ur skill issue

:3

[sharp owl]

sounds like uh

[tidal jay]

Hopefully

[sharp owl]

the uh the uhm uhh the fuckin uhhh

[tidal jay]

I hear the modded rundowns are fucking intense though

I can't beat R4E1 yet

How tf am I gonna deal with that

🗿

[rose nova]

some, depends, ive heard occlusion is not that hard n pretty good

also :3

funs

[tidal jay]

I'm hoping for a weapon meta switch in R8 though

Hel rev is fun and so is Carbine but they need to go

[rose nova]

i mean they are not necessary to play with either

i go bat 77% of the time cause is fun

and i still do, stuff

[sharp owl]

i wonder if devs balance around reload canceling

because with quick shoves that's basically their reload speed

[rose nova]

they do balancing in the reload itsekf i think

[sharp owl]

They Said they gon fix it

Fast forward to now

they gon fix reload canceling

ohno

not my stupidly fast reloads

[rose nova]

fixin it wouldve gotten em killed

[sharp owl]

i mean on some guns canceling is just mandatory like on pump action

it's 3x faster

No that was an Ama in discord

And no it wouldnt have killed em

[rose nova]

u dont need to reload cancel anythin to live

just cause ur doin solo doesnt mean u need to do it

i hear more skill issue

[sharp owl]

well yeah but it helps way too much not to do that

if you're not actively gimping yourself by not reload canceling you have a skill issue

brb I'm gonna do r1c1 solo melee only to be able to talk about stuff without being unskilled

[rose nova]

ill unskill u for not oneshottin bigs

[upbeat sail]

do r7d2 melee only

[rose nova]

r4e1 cfoam only

[upbeat sail]

if you had infinite c-foam that might be possible

[sharp owl]

spitters are awful

why can i not kill them

why can i not fry them with a long range flashlight point blank

why can i not shoot them with a sniper and destroy them

so annoying

[rose nova]

r4e1 cfoam run just noddin its head to u rn

[wispy bluff]

Probably because then players would spend ages min-maxing their anti-spitter playthrough by killing every single spitter in sight. The runs are long enough as they are.
Also its more work: animating and programming death state...

However: i heard you can shoot cfoam blob at them and they will calm them down for some time. Don't know how long though as i never tried it myself.

Not an option for you, the solo-man, of course.

[sharp owl]

i do play with others

i just also enjoy pain on the side

i just did r2d1 and got basically carried

[upbeat sail]

it disables them for around 4 minutes I think

[upbeat sail]

have fun on the cbt reactor next

[wispy bluff]

Oh jeez, its that good?

I should bring foam to spitter levels more often

There is always that ONE asshole who keeps getting me

[sharp owl]

you could totally just shoot them

wouldn't take long

would expend resources

[wispy bluff]

How much damage

Would pistol round be enough

Or DMR one

[sharp owl]

20hp

[wispy bluff]

Those are the decision devs would have to make as well

Which also saves them time and brain power

[sharp owl]

or you can melee and take the infection and hp

[sharp owl]

that's not really a hard thing to decide on IMO

[wispy bluff]

Well, either way - its not the game, so clearly they had their reasons.

[sharp owl]

yeah i know

but man are they annoying little pieces of doodoo

[wispy bluff]

Everyone agrees

[sharp owl]

probably their intended function

[wispy bluff]

I've seen some cracked vets slowly get tilted with each SCREEE

You could hear it in their voice

[sharp owl]

can you actually dodge them when the spitters activate

[wispy bluff]

First couple are "haha, funny screaming plant"

[sharp owl]

or is the scream just there to tilt you

[wispy bluff]

By the 5th time they're like "OH. MY. FUCKING. GOD."

[upbeat sail]

somehow I never had many issues with them and just find them funny

[sharp owl]

yeah this is me

in r2d1 by the end i was physically tired of getting hit by them

i even run the other way when i hear the scream but it doesn't seem to do anything

[upbeat sail]

run around with the mega-flashlight

[sharp owl]

i can't not take fog repellers when it's everywhere

[upbeat sail]

I did that level with 85% infection for most of it

and just pulled the enemies out of the fog rooms instead of trying to stealth through them

[wispy bluff]

Yeah, it doesn't do anything - their explosion radius is pretty massive, so you have no chance, i think.

[rough robin]

it does lower the amount of dmg/infection you take

[wispy bluff]

When it comes to spitters the optiomal strategy is Long Range Flashlight, crouching and paying EXTRA attention to your surroundings.

[sharp owl]

Ok

Optimal or optional

Optiomal

[wispy bluff]

All of which, of course, goes out the window when you're followed by a charger error alarm

sideeyes a certain level

[sharp owl]

Gamers don't look up

[mint light]

Which one?

[wispy bluff]

R4 fog turbine acquisition

[rough robin]

cuernos my beloved

[mint light]

The good one. ok

[upbeat sail]

I mean you can full sprint with the flashlight and (mostly) disable any in front of you

[wispy bluff]

Its always the ones on the ceiling that getcha

Also some of them require like a solid second or two of flashing before they calm down

[upbeat sail]

eh the ceiling ones have never been an issue for me its just ones hugging corners

they arnt that common but you are forced to turn to them even with the hi power flashlight

[sharp siren]

@wicked solstice PLS WE SPEAK HERE

[wicked solstice]

right

[sharp siren]

I DIE a little bit inside

when i see people talking in media

like i loose all hope for humanity

[merry crypt]

im sorry :(

[sharp siren]

thats where the fire debates are tho

in media chat

[merry crypt]

true.

[sharp siren]

I dont know what your C tier difficulty looks like in your modded level

whats your rundown name

maybe i did play it before

its not rule breaking neither since its not self advertisement neither @wicked solstice

its a "conversation"

[wicked solstice]

Yeah ik

Occlusion

[sharp siren]

i dont think i played it sadly

will play it tho

[wicked solstice]

Yeah, I’m happy with it so far

It’s a lil’ wonky rn because I installed the mod to fix heat bug

[sharp siren]

you have custom stuff in it or is it vanilla

[wicked solstice]

Nah vanilla

Other than some geos

And pretty apex doors

[sharp siren]

hot hot

[wicked solstice]

Didn’t want to go crazy with any non vanilla stuff, and I also don’t use spitters bc i tried and got sound bug 3/3 times

I wanted to tho

[delicate frigate]

the new #community-news remind anyone else of stamina?

the whole "we aren't abandoning gtfo after r8 but we probably wont support it anymore" as compared to "we aren't adding stamina but we are adding a system where you are tired if you jump or run"

[mystic moss]

This doesn’t mean GTFO is abandoned. It will always be the founders' passion project and the community will continue to be a focus. But we can’t promise any new content past Rundown 8.0.

After the release of Rundown 8.0 we'll be fully devoting ourselves to our next project

[wispy bluff]

The Strongman of that would be "we will no longer develop content for it, but we will keep in touch and watch over the community and discord servers"

Also: is that how they foreshadowed stamina?

[rose nova]

more so sayin they wouldnt add it and then addin it namin em 'anti kiting measure' or somethin of those lines

[wispy bluff]

Real "Its not "Jumpscares" - its "Fear Flashes"" moment

Sometimes gave devs are too intelligent for their own good. The hoops of logic that only a very smart person can jump.

[delicate frigate]

yes, like slendiman mentioned they kept saying they were not adding stamina then went back on it by showing stamina

one of many things 10cc has unfortunately gone back on

[rose nova]

at least alt rundowns are a plus

[wispy bluff]

Hm. Perhaps they really wanted to do it differently, but just couldn't find a solution that wasn't just hitting the player with nerf hammer to the cranium.

Happens all the time.

[delicate frigate]

they said it wasnt stamina like right before the announcement of it being stamina

[wispy bluff]

Okay, that's just weird.

[delicate frigate]

still dont know why they didnt just add ||cfoam spitters like d0c said they were going to||

[rose nova]

idk, probs a bug with em or some, weird stuff

[wispy bluff]

Sounds like a communication issue to me.... Or someone be lyin' around here. But i'm gonna take a good faith assumption for now.

[rose nova]

or cause it isnt an universal fix for em

just a special enemy

communication ISSUE

SKILL??????!

sorry

[wispy bluff]

You can't see it - but i'm giving you a side eye

[rose nova]

idk why they would lie about somethin that can be seen on the discord, and tbh from 10c i wouldnt be super surprised but idk either

id have to search on the channels

[wispy bluff]

I can totally see some programmer in the basement huffing all of the copium being like "Its totally not stamina, what are you talking about? Look at this code - do these look like stamina mechanics to you?"

[rose nova]

or just breathin heavily out of nervousness

[stray geyser]

Still waiting for Alt R6

[visual jungle]

sex mod

[rose nova]

:]

[sharp owl]

soon brudda not too far from now
Hope

[minor ginkgo]

this may be a silly question

but does anyone have recommendations on fighting a tank with bots?

[rose nova]

um
mines prob, mine strat

or... um @merry crypt HEY U

ur needed come here

[minor ginkgo]

it's R4D2

so there's not a lot of mines left at that point

[merry crypt]

hmm?

[rose nova]

how do u deal with tanks :3

and bots

and tanks

and bots

[merry crypt]

ideally mines

[sharp owl]

let the tank stay at the bottom walkways while you are at the top by the big door, u get good sight on his tumors

[rose nova]

and if not mines

[sharp owl]

u also can go around the tank and he will either lock on you or bots, either case his tumors are exposed to either side but only for a short time before bots move to your side

only if you are more experienced

[merry crypt]

true, but you need pretty big area

but imma take any tank tips

[minor ginkgo]

I got my shit rocked because I tried to rotate around him to keep on the tumors but he pummeled the shit outta me

[sharp owl]

yeah as i said only if you are seasoned properly

elevations are his biggest weakness

[minor ginkgo]

what would be considered properly seasoned

[sharp owl]

dealt with tanks round bots and also experienced with gtfo

better aim n reflex

[minor ginkgo]

I have one of those

Never really dealt with tanks before

my loadouts for R4D2 also might not be optimal

[sharp owl]

dont rush it take as much time you need to hit the tumors

ammo is scarce

[minor ginkgo]

any tips on getting eyes on the tumors if the bots are next to me?

should I just loop around the room and hope I get behind father?

[sharp owl]

elevation
any place higher than the tank will give you line of sight

also if there are any grates u can use those for better vision

[modest sundial]

may God smite the creator of R5B2

[white raptor]

lmao

[primal leaf]

I think he was joking but I agree 😆

Game breaking bugs I'd love to see fixed... enemies freezing on checkpoint reload. Enemies clipping through doors and prematurely detonating mines to name a couple.

Then again
.. I'm a a purist (mostly).

[last parrot]

i think the highest priority should be bugs on the deadliest enemy

(the bots)

[primal leaf]

Oh 100% because getting pounded into the ground because of a bug is both unfair and unfun.

[modest sundial]

Apparently making people do two uplinks in infectious fog with tons of spitters wasn't enough for secondary, let's add a freaking error alarm too, and make them spawn in unallerted rooms

[primal leaf]

Kind of like the interaction of a certain scout in a certain set of rooms with certain childbearing enemies that alerts by putting a tentacle through a certain open door (with nothing to touch but thin air)

Because alerting 2 or 3 rooms of mothers for something that shouldn't have happened makes sense (sarcasm)

[modest sundial]

Also, turrets firing at closed doors

[rose nova]

turrets aim through the holes cause they don't have hit box tbh idk how u can fix it

i guess, makin the door completely sealed

?

[primal leaf]

I think that falls in line with the mines detonating prematurely due to "holes" in the door that has not yet broken but is actively being banged up

[primal leaf]

This... I think...

[modest sundial]

Also, the entire map unloading at random points

[rose nova]

that does, not happen
big enemies sometimes can go through em cause its big hitboxes

but u can adapt to that

its only if u like put it right at the side

[rose nova]

idk i like my frames

ah wait

[primal leaf]

That's more annoying and can typically be solved with a moment or two of hesitation or slow moving into the room

[rose nova]

u mean like the r7d1 room stuff

[primal leaf]

But I agree jts higher priority than the certain scout alert on empty air

[primal leaf]

R7e1 stuff

Althougj... there was that ONE run where we had a random mother wake up during final unlink baby alarm
