[sharp owl]

the menu is so confusing for me

(I'm dumb)

[rose nova]

its ok, it is a lil funky startin out

:3

[wispy bluff]

TRAINING level is a good start, will teach you basics of basics.

[mint light]

After training: #lfg-beginners and #how-to-matchmake

[wispy bluff]

Then you can try soloing R1A1 with bots or find yourself a squad in #lfg-beginners as according to #how-to-matchmake

Spoiler: bots are pretty cringe and its not so much playing with them but playing around them

[rose nova]

just some advice for jumpin to the LFG !!
always ask to not be carried and make sure that everyone joinin ur lobby joins ur voice channel
and like they said, start on r1, its the most simple one

[jade cliff]

what does lfg stand for
looking for gamers?

[wispy bluff]

Almost

Looking For Group

LF3M = Looking For 3 More
Same for 2M, 1M...

[jade cliff]

I see

that makes more sense HAHAHHA

[wispy bluff]

It would be pretty funny if it was actually "looking for gamers", selling that elitism smell right off the bat

[wraith marsh]

whats elitist about gamers

[mint light]

Not available right now, come back tomorrow

[jade cliff]

I love gamers

😎

[rough robin]

bullpup reload changed from 2.4s to 2.35s

job well done, see you guys in r8

[wispy bluff]

[sharp owl]

barely survived training with %15 hp

my aim sucks lol

[rough robin]

ready for r5e1

[wispy bluff]

wheeeeeeze

[wispy bluff]

Hey, you survived. Could be worse.

[jade cliff]

what;s the hardest rundown

[rough robin]

5 i'd say

[jade cliff]

like level

overall

sorry I should've been more clear xdd

[rough robin]

personally i'd say R4E1? maybe R7E1

[wispy bluff]

Many contenders

All of the Es are deeply cursed

A = Easy
B = Normal
C = Advanced
D = Hard
E = Very Hard

[jade cliff]

so all of the Es are contenders

good to knoooow

[rough robin]

R2E1 is easiest E tier i'd say

[wispy bluff]

By very definition they are fucking disgusting

[jade cliff]

my friends did half of rundown 1, we've moved on to climbing down to r7e1

💀

[rough robin]

assuming this is on a blind run, i'd say r4e1 and r7e1 are tied

[rough robin]

trial by fire

[wispy bluff]

From rundown 4 and onwards some levels will have optional objectives

Some of them will have 2.

[steel marsh]

R2E1 or R4E1

[jade cliff]

are we allowed to post links

[wispy bluff]

Beating all of them at once awards you this braggin rights medal :

And some of the levels that have those are... Deep sigh.

[jade cliff]

ok I post link for my team doing r5a2

https://outplayed.tv/media/zzVL5r

[rough robin]

Cuernos is fucking difficult (PE)

i think it's r4c3

[wispy bluff]

Yes

That level is brutal for a C

[high ruin]

R4C3 is the high point before E1

[jade cliff]

by the way

is all of rundown 1 sorta boring

?

[rough robin]

its just simplistic

[wispy bluff]

Not really

[rough robin]

if you've played the other rundowns then yeah it'll prob be boring by comparison

[wispy bluff]

Its more simple in design, biomes, objectives...

[jade cliff]

my team made it to the reactor level so like, r1c1?? and we moved on because it got dry

[wispy bluff]

Dry in what sense

To be fair R1C1 is an anomaly

Its one of the very few "raw action" levels

[jade cliff]

idk

[wispy bluff]

Honestly it was only getting good from there

[jade cliff]

the previous levels were just "go here, go here, run like hell back and clear the level"

I see

[wispy bluff]

That's... Literally the whole game.

[jade cliff]

HAHAHA

true

[wispy bluff]

You're not gonna find much variety in that.

Aside from the game just slowly getting more cruel and just throwing all kinds of curved balls to you until one of them crashes your balls

[high ruin]

It starts getting really good by R5D1.

[sharp owl]

Of all the lvls
That

[wispy bluff]

Spawn > bonk > pull door > survive > open door > repeat until level is done

Although some objectives can get pretty... How can i put this... Creative, i guess?

[rough robin]

i feel like thats underselling the game

[wispy bluff]

But literally all of them come down to "find X and do Y to it"

[sharp owl]

Thats core gameplay

Now how convoluted it is thats up in the air

[wispy bluff]

Find terminal > put in command.
Find HSU > scan it.
Find McGuffin #123 - bring it back to spawn (or, sometimes, insert it into a McGuffin shaped hole and THEN go back to spawn)

Etc etc etc etc...

More monsters, bigger monsters, angrier monsters...

The devil is in the details, but if you haven't found any fun by playing R1 i'm not sure how long you'll be around.

But to be fair: R1 is one of the easiest rundowns, if not THE easiest at the moment, so i can see how one would come to such conclusion.

I'd advise to just brute force it just to be done with it.

And again: R1C1 is an anomaly and not at all how most levels go.

Hell, some veterans here outright hate it for being the most boring level, allegedly.

[steel marsh]

yeah especially once you get to R4 with secondary and Overload objective it gets a lot more fun. There is more to figure out and trying build working strategies gets tougher

[high ruin]

I can understand why R1 might be seen as boring. There's way less stuff in the game so far and the enemies, environments, objectives, etc start to vary more in later rundowns.

[wraith marsh]

this game is as good as you make it

which can be VERY good

[unreal breach]

I just vibe with the homies

I'm new to the game so I'm still learning but it's fun

[stone marten]

I dono. I found R3 to be the easiest so far from what ive done

[burnt flume]

that begs the question, what have you done in r3?

[timber tinsel]

I still need A3 and C1 and beyond!

[rose nova]

r1 vs r3 u mean?

r3c1 and d1 are brutal brutal, way more than the entire C and D tier of R1

tho on As and Bs... r1 is still easier

R3B2 introduces funny enemy

and r1b12 is just a1 but, a bit different and more terminal focused

[high ruin]

For sure brother for sure

[kind ruin]

I think the mods are going bananas with power with their anti-chimp theory stance

@mild kettle

PLAY NOW TOM!?!?!

[mild kettle]

Working

[latent palm]

Nice\

have fun at work TOM

[mild kettle]

[sharp owl]

Go sleep bruh

[rough robin]

idea

give the pump shotgun 1 more pellet to give it the slightest amount of leeway with it's breakpoints

[latent palm]

i literally just woke up 1hr ago

wdym

[sharp owl]

Sleep more then 🥰

[drifting sparrow]

R3C1 for me is coin flip depend which zone u need to go to for HSU. If it’s north side of fog, I always have a hard time finding HSU, East side super easy just a lot of chargers. I always go Hel Shotgun and Hel Gun

I basically defend and push for extraction. But dealing with beginning - middle of run is my teammates job. Stealth is easy for me

D1 I go SMG sniper/lmg (depends what we need). 2 teammates get 2 Hel weapons secondary

[latent palm]

huh?

theres multiple zones for Hsu's 👀

[sharp owl]

2 options where it can spawn

17-18-19 <- Hsu spawn
20-21-22 <-Hsu spawn

[drifting sparrow]

Yeah. 17-18-19 if it’s north of fog I hate

[barren tree]

Zone 20 is the easiest as it has a long hallway

And most of the time hsu is just inside a big room so basically even u fucked up by the scouts u can still shoot the way out

[latent palm]

@rough robin NEW VIDEO???!?!

[rough robin]

yeah thats

why I posted it

[latent palm]

when R4E1

[rough robin]

I already made a video on r4e1

[latent palm]

nah

Tileset randomizer R4E1

[rough robin]

that sounds horrible

but maybe

[latent palm]

@sharp owl

[sharp owl]

yes

[latent palm]

pley

[sharp owl]

ok

[dry swan]

When will R6 come out TT

[sharp owl]

next week maybe

[high ruin]

dude i was ready tonight

[sharp owl]

calle the bear-er of bad news

[high ruin]

it'd be gnarly funny if they buffed the hell out of everything, making it a contender for hardest rundown.

[cerulean maple]

FUCKCHAMBER

[sharp owl]

id be fine with that even if it comes last thursday of september

[high ruin]

this is their rebranding

[cerulean maple]

i think so

[sharp owl]

forbidden game devs

[mint light]

How tho. the base for that is missing

[high ruin]

the base?

[idle monolith]

next

week

[mint light]

Yeah for example chargers only appearing in D tier. that is weak AF

And there is not really a good place to put em otherwise. the baseline of the missions is too weak to make it a contender for hardest rundown

[high ruin]

Holy crap I just realized that. They do only appear in D tier in R6.

[mint light]

Shadows only Cx and D3

[high ruin]

No for sure It'd be funny if they did whatever they could and it just threw everyone off.

[mint light]

It really is just a weaker rundown

[vestal crystal]

NLO gang

[mint light]

Oh I 'm sure they'll throw in a snatcher somewhere

But that won't be enough

[high ruin]

I still enjoy it for some it's ideas with warping and certain levels like D3-4, but yeah, it does have that full-release burden of them thinking it needs to be toned down a bit difficulty wise.

[high ruin]

ehhhhhhh

[mint light]

D3 and D4 were honestly great

I would personally add chargers to C1 last alarm, add one hybrid back to hybrids error in C2sec

Remove checkpoints

[high ruin]

D2 was cool by contrast being the only charger level and the secondary for it is debatably the hardest objective in the rundown.

[earnest forge]

I still have PTSD from my first attempts at the alarm before the corrupted uplink in D2

[mint light]

Make D2 sec class IV a flyer surge

[earnest forge]

It was pretty close to it on release, then got tuned down if I remember correctly. Flyers, everywhere

<insert vietnam ptsd gif>

[mint light]

yes, tune it back up

please

[high ruin]

It's interesting cause when I started to try to actively improve during R6, I'd hear people say it's an "easy rundown."
The thing with that is easy is relative. R4-5 were so brutal that by the time we got to R6, it felt kind of sad by comparsion.
I still think it's harder than R1-3, barring R2E1.

[high ruin]

Oh yeah, mislabeled alarm and spawn cap flyers before patch.

[green rivet]

Yet another Thursday goes by without an R6 release

[green rivet]

People realize now R6 was peak content and most fun

Except checkpoints

I think r7 did an ok job with checkpoints tho

[earnest forge]

Their placement (and how they were distributed in Expeditions) was a bit better handled in R7

[unreal crystal]

werent my r3d1 grinds fun bread? :(

and the r4e1 duo?

cmon man

classics

[green rivet]

Shut up pub. You don’t play with me

Go stalk another text channel

[wispy bluff]

I like R6, it's like a little island of chill in the ocean of sharks

[unreal crystal]

remember how much fun you had getting licked around corners

[wispy bluff]

C2, C3 and the Ds will probably give me trouble again, but that's alright

[green rivet]

I witnessed another r7e1 toe lick and I can confirm it was through the wall

[green rivet]

Yea. I think d2 didn’t need a checkpoint. D1 only needed the one before the end.

[earnest forge]

Agreed

[junior latch]

D1 having 2 wouldve made sense

Not 5

[green rivet]

5?

[analog flicker]

[green rivet]

I only count 3

What am I missing

[earnest forge]

I think bread was talking about R7

^^

[green rivet]

Yes

R7

[earnest forge]

Eva about R6

[analog flicker]

R6d1*

[earnest forge]

but all in all you are both correct ^^

[green rivet]

Eva bad

[analog flicker]

Where is my Bread Bat Skin

[junior latch]

[sharp owl]

imagine the effectiveness we would have if we had access ro bigger magazines

[hollow quarry]

Ofc

[green rivet]

❤️❤️❤️

[hollow quarry]

As long as it's sourdough

[junior latch]

[sharp owl]

oh i get it because sourdough is so hard it's inedible

perfect for a sledgehammer

[rose nova]

i mean that's already then just harder even if it is a 50/50 chance on one level
and d1 well cool loadout but there's still some funky parts

also i was asleep

so i answer now

[forest rose]

The urge

The dark urge

[green rivet]

Sourdough is great

Y’all haters

[thorn atlas]

hey anybody know where i can practice killing scouts

[green rivet]

You can’t kill scouts

Jk: r2e1

First zone has scout

Go crazy

[gaunt inlet]

Can confirm, sourdough is good. Especially if you can get some homemade.

[edgy matrix]

6am what timezone? for r6

[rose nova]

the message should b adapted to ur time zone

Anyone has any idea on why there isnt alarm X or V when lowered in this first door???

it's R7D1 speedrun

[green rivet]

It’s always Thursday :(

Too busy Thursday

I cry

[latent palm]

September 14th

My dear warp gate

Just another week

[green rivet]

Calle send me R6 on Wednesday

[forest rose]

The ball crusher is back

[forest rose]

WARP GATE?@?!?!?!?!??! LIKE WARHAMMER REFERENCE?!?!?!

WOJACK MOMENT

[wispy bluff]

A whole week... Alright.

[earnest forge]

If you are talking about the first alarm doom into R7D1, that is intended

[young stone]

Yes

[earnest forge]

This Security Door is not like others

It is opened by typing a command in Terminals

Not by manually activating the handle

(if I remember correctly)

[young stone]

How is it possible that they dont have alarm tho, isn't it supposed to always be either alarm X or V after you do the other door and lower it?

[earnest forge]

It is, but you see that on the Terminal next to the door

[young stone]

No, they just do 1 scan

and it opens

They don't do alarm

They bypassed the entire alarm but i don't really understand how

[coarse grail]

If its the first alarm door then thats after the error section presumably

[young stone]

Yeah, after error you get class V alarm

But they are not doing even that

XD

its just 1 scan, not class V alarm

no alarm whatsoever

[coarse grail]

Nah, its Class X or nothing on the first one

The second one is Class X or class V

[young stone]

Ohhhhhh

really???/

Ok i thought the first door is the same as the second one, thought they both go to class V

thanks for explanation :3

[earnest forge]

Ok, I have not played this for too long :)

[junior latch]

yea the first alarm gets completely "removed" with the S scan being started at the end of the error

[young stone]

ahhh oki oki

[earnest forge]

In any case, the most fun is going for both Class X alarms.

[young stone]

yeah we did that cuz couldn't do the error one

lmao

[junior latch]

idk, its cool once or twice
i prefer fucked up strats like speedstrat at this point honestly

[young stone]

what is a speedstrat

just running around enemies lmao?

[junior latch]

the strat used in the video you send

[young stone]

oo oki

[junior latch]

deactivating the first class X, then stopping all spawns with deactivate alarms after for the error, S scan and the next class x

[young stone]

icic uwu

[latent palm]

Ye

[forest rose]

I'm literally like

Wojack rn

[latent palm]

Fr fr

[sharp owl]

I'm starting to think that i'm not actually improving

i went back to r1a1 and i'm again unable to finish the class 4 even though i beat it

[wispy bluff]

Everyone hits a personal ceiling eventually

[sharp owl]

i think i'm just brute forcing the levels through lucky runs

[wispy bluff]

Oh, of course

[sharp owl]

instead of earning it

[latent palm]

Ofc

[wispy bluff]

Solo runs are as much luck as they are skill

[latent palm]

Why do you think ppl reset R4E1 till they get a good run

[sharp owl]

probably because it's horrendously difficult

[latent palm]

Same as solo

[sharp owl]

haven't played it

[latent palm]

Dw just play

Until R4E1 ill dab you up

[rose nova]

dabs

[coarse grail]

Maybe you're just improving slower now

[junior latch]

eh

[wispy bluff]

Tfw success of your run dictated by ammopack spawn

[latent palm]

Dabbing in 2023??

[rose nova]

maybe

[coarse grail]

you're still a sprout

[junior latch]

"luck" only matters when you arent clearly above the level to solo it

[latent palm]

True

[wispy bluff]

Didn't get one in first 3 rooms? GG WP, go next

[latent palm]

Dont sweat it

[junior latch]

???

[latent palm]

I think he was referring to my R4E1

[junior latch]

R4E1 isnt even rng for solo

it hasnt been solod without glitch abuse yet lol

[latent palm]

No

[sharp owl]

you can solo r4e1?

[latent palm]

T-nenpi did it

[sharp owl]

oh

with bugs

[junior latch]

you can get quite far

if you are insane

[latent palm]

Through 8 hrs

[latent palm]

No bugs

No glitch

[sharp owl]

8 HOURS?

[latent palm]

No cheese

[unreal crystal]

he did use bugs

[latent palm]

Where

[unreal crystal]

which one are u talking abt

[latent palm]

I didn’t notice lol

[unreal crystal]

extreme or just main

[latent palm]

Both lol

[unreal crystal]

extreme he got babies stuck in a wall

[junior latch]

in extreme he made a mom spawn cap babies on a box

its an insanely hard way to glitch it

[unreal crystal]

inever watched the main one

[junior latch]

but its one nonetheless

[unreal crystal]

at that point u just doorbug

its the same effect

[latent palm]

Oh yeah

That i can replicate

[high ruin]

On a box?

[latent palm]

I just did it just today

[high ruin]

Does she get stuck?

[latent palm]

No

But her spawns get stuck

Its a hard cornering way but

[unreal crystal]

@junior latch did he use any kinda glitches for main clear?

[latent palm]

I did with a pub team pushed her into a server box

[unreal crystal]

idk if u know

but i trust u to be a more reliable source than emoji spammer #53

[latent palm]

And 95%of the spawn is stuck

[junior latch]

idk, didnt watch that one

[high ruin]

Honestly it's so beyond the idea of conventional play to solo the level with Secondary. Similar to door bug it would seem and the completion is more about proving a point than anything remotely practical.

Mental endurance for these completions is cracked tho.

[latent palm]

Who tf would watch 8hrs

[junior latch]

the extreme one was 5

i watched like 1 of that if you put everything i watched together (mostly skipping the obviously "easy" parts)

[elfin osprey]

we now finally have r6

[latent palm]

Thats what the section is for

[elfin osprey]

next question when r8

[latent palm]

September 14th

[sharp owl]

I'm just getting some shitass luck most of the time like 2 giants spawninig in one wave

and the area is too small

[latent palm]

Bruh we just got Alt R6

[pale zephyr]

Only thing I’m interested in is the new helmet

[latent palm]

Why are you asking for R8 immediately

[junior latch]

eh it happens

[elfin osprey]

always keep the question coming

[junior latch]

its not that uncommon

[latent palm]

I mean

If the waves too hard for you

Have you considered running to other zones and closing doors to get back to alarm scans?

[sharp owl]

yes actually

[latent palm]

Maps pretty big on every tilesets except data center

[junior latch]

i dont think kiting on r1a1 is gonna make him a better player tho

[sharp owl]

but i get damaged way too much

i am not faster than tongues

[latent palm]

It works it works

[latent palm]

Even sliding?

[elfin osprey]

maybe doging?

[sharp owl]

why is sliding faster

[latent palm]

Omg bruh

He just started 1 month ago

[junior latch]

sliding preserves stamina

[sharp owl]

then yes even when sliding

[junior latch]

and doesnt slow you down as long as you cancel it quickly enough

[latent palm]

Yup

[junior latch]

it doesnt matter much for speed honestly unless you wanna get that minute extra fraction of a second

[latent palm]

It also provides a dodge instinctively from shooters

[junior latch]

also you are definetly quick enough, its just about knowing how and where to run

but i wouldnt recommend it lol

just shoot the alarm

[latent palm]

Same

[junior latch]

r1a1 always gives you stuff to prep for the class 4

unless you speedrun the level youll be 100% health, ammo and tool with consumables

[latent palm]

But if youre like us and remember the map of everything like the back of ur hands

Then RUN AWAY

[grizzled bison]

you're not like us rundown 7 player.

[latent palm]

Ye

Maybe im not

[grizzled bison]

that is not veteran status.

[latent palm]

Idm

[sharp owl]

what guns do you recommend outside the "whatever you're comf with"

[latent palm]

Shotgun do be bussin

[junior latch]

i prefer carbine, combat shotty

[grizzled bison]

HEL GUN HEL REVO

HEL GUN HEL REVO

[junior latch]

for r1a1

hel gun is pretty meh for it

[latent palm]

[junior latch]

considering how busted the gun is

[sharp owl]

what's what im running lmao

[junior latch]

usually

then get better at shooting (which isnt just "hit your shots better btw)

[latent palm]

Imo just jump to the sides when reloading lol

Always work for me at dodging 3 licks from any positions

[junior latch]

knowing which gun to start shooting with, when to reload, which scans to prioritize, how to play around sentry etc

honestly dont even jump to side, just orbwalk

[latent palm]

Slide to the left

Slide to the right

Kriss cross

[sharp owl]

orbwalk?

[latent palm]

Kriss cross

Cha cha real smooth now

[junior latch]

walk around the enemy in "circle" pattern

[tall hawk]

when normal strikers try to lick you you can just strafe to the side

[grizzled bison]

this is like getting advice for weightlifting by boogie2982

[latent palm]

Curl more lol

[junior latch]

boogie who?

[latent palm]

@tall hawk so we call funz?

[tall hawk]

meh don't feel like playing

[latent palm]

We can play roblox

GtFo roblox sounds fun ngl

[unreal crystal]

hel gun works pretty well i wouldnt discredit it that much

carbine combat shotgun is a very fun loadout for that class 4 tho

[junior latch]

true
id argue its just not as otherwordly as it will be on other missions

in a duo you can just afk hold with it if ya ignore scans. but if you wanna be on scans the sight line is scuffed for pen

[unreal crystal]

youd get pen value as enemies come through anyway

enemies would also split and it'd be annoying to hold it like u do with combat shotgun so youd have to play it differently

which is ok

[grizzled bison]

you lose value of the combat shotgun by being host

👎

[unreal crystal]

ignore beep

[grizzled bison]

i was wrong apparently

[unreal crystal]

he was

[grizzled bison]

you lose value of the combat shotgun by running it

👎

[junior latch]

oh yeah obviously you still get pen
But not like youd do if you sit by the alarm door and hold funny angle

Its definetly not bad at all. Honestly my bigger issue would be a beginner trying to use hel gun

[unreal crystal]

my bigger issue is a beginner trying to do that level solo tbh

feel like they'd have more luck on like

r7a1

[junior latch]

ye

[grizzled bison]

we all start somewhere...

better learn the hel gun...

[latent palm]

Hel gun

[quartz cape]

i hope your mom takes away your internet privileges

[unreal crystal]

lets discuss the burst cannon in r1a1 solo, however...

[sharp owl]

uh

my game is bugged

oh nvm

it wouldn't let me enter an expedition

[grizzled bison]

can i play your solo with you

[unreal crystal]

CAN I PLAY WITH YOU GUYS

[cinder ginkgo]

so new runs are out?

[unreal crystal]

next week yes

[junior latch]

now?
play it with helpp or no respect

[unreal crystal]

does it even do enough damage

[quartz cape]

yes

[desert frigate]

lets discuss the abandoned roadmap

my heart bleeds for the poor thing

last update 20th june 2022

[junior latch]

hel pp + burst cannon = 20

@raw shard lemme move this here LOL

anybody else got kicked or was it solo?

around 11 min ago?

because i also got kicked

i presume it isnt a usual game crash

[raw shard]

It was duo

[junior latch]

but probably steam related

because its unlikely that both you and me get kicked at the exact same timing

in different lobbies

[raw shard]

Yeah that's stupid

Literally the last level @shut vapor needs lmao

just trying to run through it duo

[junior latch]

F

i was nearly done with my level too

[wicked solstice]

I’ve seen this happen, it’s very rare

[shut vapor]

We were too cool

[wicked solstice]

Did you just get sent to rundown screen?

[grizzled bison]

i wasn't kicked 🙂

[shut vapor]

ye

[wicked solstice]

Yup

[shut vapor]

It took me a few extra moments

[junior latch]

yup

[wicked solstice]

Had that happen on OG R7D1 and host migration failed

[unreal crystal]

didnt get kicked from R5C2: ACCESS

THUNDERDOME LEVEL

[junior latch]

tbf steam issues arent always happening to everyone

[wicked solstice]

we were doing so damn well too

[topaz holly]

What have we to do, if someone wasn't kicked and he is not online in steam?

[junior latch]

cough the fuckin tuesday fun

[wicked solstice]

Not a steam thing iirc

Could be wrong

[junior latch]

@wicked solstice it happening to 2 seperate lobbies at the same time tho

[wicked solstice]

ohhh same time lol

Yeah

[junior latch]

actually 3, i got a dm

lol

[raw shard]

lmao yeah it's a strange coincidence

[wicked solstice]

We love to see it

[shut vapor]

My R5B2 clear

[junior latch]

ayo r5b2

[shut vapor]

Best level

[coarse grail]

server stopped us when we were gonna play it before too. Its a conspiracy

[raw shard]

even the game hates R5B2

[shut vapor]

:(

[junior latch]

honestly i like r5b2

[raw shard]

I didn't used to

[junior latch]

its a decent PE
and main is a banger speed

[raw shard]

I kinda do now

[junior latch]

i hated it in og tho

[shut vapor]

I liked it before it was cool

[wispy bluff]

What was an objective on that one again... Nvm, I'll Google it.

[raw shard]

GLPs

Secondary is Uplinks, Overload is Osips

[latent palm]

@woven coral thanks for a release date

[quartz cape]

no problem

[cobalt verge]

r8 when

????????

@woven coral

R8 When x2????

[rose nova]

yesterday

[drifting sparrow]

It’s a anti specified enemy loadout so yeah it’s funky xD. But does the job for the end

[wispy bluff]

At least 3 months from now. January 2024, at least.

[last parrot]

unless

[analog flicker]

@hollow quarry 4:00AM in which timezone again?

[rose nova]

your timezone

[last parrot]

if youre talking about the game announcement message, its automatically in your timezone

[rose nova]

the message adapts to ur timezone

[analog flicker]

I see

So you're telling me Alt R6 Releases at the same time I wake up for work

[rose nova]

:3

[wispy bluff]

Gotta ignore lore channel for a week

[analog flicker]

I can't wait to hear insane Schaeffer again.

Man is just too sane in R7

[wraith marsh]

I got class till 9 hours after drop, love EU drop times

[analog flicker]

I'm not on like 14-16 hours after release

People will have already completed the rundown by the time I'm home.

[wraith marsh]

So true

[true pilot]

Its literally middle of (work) day in europe when alt R6 drops

so its not even good here

[latent palm]

hehe

im gonna finish and spoil it all on when ur work ass is done

[soft lion]

how come so many ppl running r2 today?

[rose nova]

idk, r2 is a fun rundown :3

[soft lion]

oh nice, im almost done with r1 and then im gonna do r2 next

two more missiond in r1

[rose nova]

eyy :3 nice

good luck with em !

[soft lion]

thanks

[latent palm]

its a long leveled rundown

[soft lion]

big levels?

[latent palm]

more like long

[junior latch]

not rly on either

[latent palm]

on D tier long

[soft lion]

they just take awhile to complete?

[junior latch]

3-4 missions that will take 1-1 1/2 hours

its pretty alright honestly

[soft lion]

oh cool

[junior latch]

6 short ones

obviously depends on skill/experience

can take longer if you play it very safe for 3 of those (1 is kinda time gated)

[soft lion]

ive only ever played r1 since i want to try and beat them all in order

i did r7 by myself for fun but thats it

[junior latch]

might get hard with E1, but if that happens you could always do R3 before it

[soft lion]

first level of r7, not the entier thing

[earnest forge]

It is a good level to start a solo run. R2A1 will be harder

[rough robin]

Think the game will go on sale with alt r6

[earnest forge]

It would not hurt. I do not see why it would not go on sale for <content_complete> R8, but that is a bit further down the road :)

The last (quite successful) time the game went both on sale along with a free weekend was nice, when OG R6 came out

The only downside to that was the short notice, and a few issues mostly corrected by a patch a couple weeks later

[mint light]

you might get stuck on E1 like eva said just feel free to do R3 as its more manageable

[wispy bluff]

Yeah, don't beat against the wall too much.

Which is rich coming from me, but...

[mint light]

time for you to revisit and be amazed how easy it all was

[wispy bluff]

Too much time consumption

[junior latch]

@wispy bluff R4C3 into R2E1 clear rn?

PE obviously

[wispy bluff]

I'm not sure what you're saying

[junior latch]

gaming

[wispy bluff]

I occasionally think of joining a random squad to attempt to help them with R4C3, since now I can just chill with no stakes... But it's too much of my free time, I got better things to do.

[junior latch]

1 hour

[wispy bluff]

Yes, that's a lot.

[junior latch]

[wispy bluff]

Average dota match is shorter than this

[earnest forge]

Playing DotA in 2023

[wispy bluff]

What? It still holds up.

They've been messing with things recently and I love it.

[earnest forge]

I have played more than 1000 hours in it (mostly 10 years ago)

[wispy bluff]

I also escaped, been clear for like 4 years

Then they dropped the free arcana of your choice

[junior latch]

also has a ~50% chance to be a miserable experience

[earnest forge]

That sounds like a druglord offer you cannot refuse

[wispy bluff]

My only regret is that there is no Sven arcana.

[earnest forge]

I did have a lot of good times playing it ; I will not lie

[wispy bluff]

And paying 200$ for a sword is not my thing

[earnest forge]

But those games where you know from the start it will be a long drag to a painfull loss

...

[wispy bluff]

Such is life. You just work with what you have.

I learned to just adapt to my team's shenanigans and compensate whatever we are lacking.

Played Sniper as a support once. We won.

[quartz cape]

i played hel shotgun and we lost...

[little ridge]

...the track of time with all the fun you had?

[quartz cape]

...all my ammo staggering the enemies but not killing any of them

[kind ruin]

IS GTFO ON SALE NEXT WEEK

I NEED TO BUY THREE COPIES

[quartz cape]

you can have mine

im not using it anymore

[sharp owl]

steals your copy

[quartz cape]

im free

[sharp owl]

steals you

[kind ruin]

Oh no

Big Chimp took Davies

[quartz cape]

chimp davies will never die

[sharp owl]

imagine having more than 1 viable sentry in the videogame

that would be something

[rose nova]

shotgun sentry is nice for corners sniper for giants

idk what u blaffin about

[sharp owl]

shotgun sentry is best currently

only need 1 most of the time so u can get some else

whenever i take shotgun it does nothing

[earnest forge]

I bet it shoots, at least

[wispy bluff]

Imagine balancing your games period

[modern coral]

Or you can take double burst and to clear all wave events w/ sentries.

[sharp owl]

well yeah it shoots but

barely

[rose nova]

shotgun shoots very well on chokepoints

[sharp owl]

does it

enemies run past it

[rose nova]

and it should be more pickin with its shoots since u dont run bio

i mean u dont have bio

dont put it in a small place

[sharp owl]

oh wait

[rose nova]

let it have, some space

[sharp owl]

i forgor

bio

[rose nova]

dont put it right right right on the corner

[sharp owl]

shotgun imo is supposed to trickle/weaken enemies not kill em with how it shoots rn

[junior latch]

[sharp owl]

join the cool kids club

[junior latch]

its definetly not the best lol

unless you mean in the hypothetical scenario where it works perfectly hitting every pellet and not double shooting

[rough robin]

do you have a bio supporting it

[junior latch]

which.... never happens

[sharp owl]

yeah that was the problem

i need to try it out in a team some day

[sharp owl]

no but it does a great job of crowd control

[junior latch]

a shame that thats a huge waste of tool then

honestly

merge auto and shotgun sentry

pleaaase

[rose nova]

and lets not forget sniper sentry also works very well for big enemies

[sharp owl]

hel auto shotgun sentry

[rough robin]

yucky!

[junior latch]

wdym, that would make both sentries work

[sharp owl]

shotgun should be the doomslayer of sentry weapons

[wispy bluff]

You can put shotgun and auto sentry together in a choke point to completely lock it down. It's fun, but your tool suffers.

[sharp owl]

with the downside of stupid ammo consumption

[rough robin]

this is kind of what they're going for

but the targeting of the shotgun sentry biffs it

[sharp owl]

yeah all they have to do is make it work real good now

[wispy bluff]

Remove bio syn, we don't need it

[rough robin]

it should aim for upper-chest, not the tip of the head

[sharp owl]

r6 might do some about it

or r8

[wispy bluff]

Or put it on burst too with some nerfs, THEN we can talk

[rough robin]

bio sym is dumb imo

bad way to 'balance' sentries (read. making bio even more mandatory)

[sharp owl]

oh i thought you meant like target acquisition time

[wispy bluff]

It's a fun idea on paper and I loved it when it was added.

Bio'd sniper sentry was god.

[sharp owl]

agreed bio syn is stupid (i am NOT biased)

[rough robin]

nah it acquires targets fast but it aims so poorly

[wispy bluff]

But now... Bleh.

[junior latch]

biotracker went from "holy shit its a godly tool" to "why WOULDNT you take it basically ever"

it was an interesting idea

but didnt work out well

it made sniper sentry scuff

and shotgun sentry simply doesnt work for the game rn

[kind ruin]

I did r2e1 with triple burst sentry

[rough robin]

same

[kind ruin]

Didn’t you do it with me

[wispy bluff]

Would buffing damage by 25% do the trick

[rough robin]

wouldn't matter when it misses ~80% of it's pellets

[sharp owl]

the aim is not the best

[wispy bluff]

+5% every patch until people will tolerate it

[rough robin]

shotgun sentry should be a "Kills way better, but eats ammo way quicker" version of burst

[sharp owl]

you know

it will shoot at a wall the moment a pixel of an enemy peeks through

[junior latch]

honestly, thats just boring still (especially since range will always be an issue)

[sharp owl]

i don't know why sentries even aim for headshots

it seems like a bad plan

should def be center mass

[junior latch]

a staggering shotgun sentry makes a lot more sense gameplay wise

its unique

and would be far better to balance (since its a clear "aoe" impact) compared to auto or shotgun sentry

[sharp owl]

if it isnt a sniper sentry it should be targeting center mass

sniper users will stop getting cucked by burst sentries on big enemies

sentries will miss less

positives all around

[junior latch]

what

[rough robin]

shotgun might actually be able to oneshot enemies if it aimed for upper chest (so some pellets would hit head)

[junior latch]

also burst needs to aim for heads

[sharp owl]

why

[junior latch]

if a sniper player gets cucked by a sentry then either they were too slow, the sentry badly placed or it just wasnt ment to be

[junior latch]

killing smalls effectively >>>>>>>>>>>>> rarely trolling a sniper player thats slow

[sharp owl]

ok fair

[junior latch]

when? when they are in melee range?

[rough robin]

shotgun sentrys got better range than that

slightly

[latent palm]

@mild kettle PLAY ?

[devout girder]

Hey odd question but is GTFO possible to beat with bots alone?

Can't find a game rn and all my friends are busy. Not very sociable with strangers either.

[mild kettle]

working

[devout girder]

Like what are the chances of winning later stages with just bots alone for example

[latent palm]

[sharp owl]

yes but with extreme lvls of suffering

[latent palm]

high

[devout girder]

Ah

[junior latch]

whole game? No not rly
A lot of missions are doable but require a ton of experience of the game and bots in general
The early stuff and a lot of mid tier stuff is definetly not an issue tho if you are already good enough to get through it anyhow (tho it will be more tedious)

[sharp owl]

can combat shotgun one shot strikers from tongue range if hitting them in the head

[ivory pier]

xd

[rose nova]

think so
tho tongue range is very not a term cause strikers have a lot of range, like, like a lot

[sharp owl]

i mean like, the range where they stop running to tongue you

1 meter or so

[sharp owl]

it really isnt

[rose nova]

yeah

[rose nova]

but well yeah from like, that, distance it should

[sharp owl]

ok man, that's, pretty good to, like, hear

[rose nova]

english is not my first language and im already an idiot writin idk what u expect from me

this is the femboy consequences

[sharp owl]

you write well

[rose nova]

no es cierto callese no diga mentiras los reyes magos no le van a traer nah

[hollow quarry]

Good if we wanna catch any problems within office hours 🙂

[rough robin]

Yeah you can

[sharp owl]

so it would seem

i actually have no idea how i did this level, it is hell

harder than both b1 and b2 tbh

like christ almighty it is such a tiny area

i think i had like double cfoam and a mine

[mint light]

how long do I have to wait before playing so I do not have to rundown reset ??

[bold remnant]

What are easy rundowns to solo?

[mint light]

R1 and R3

and R6

[bold remnant]

Thank you

[wispy bluff]

I hope you guys learned your lessons and won't step into the "oops, no apparel" rake again.

[rough robin]

but what if I WANT to rundown reset for those sweet sweet cosmetics

[wispy bluff]

Man this NyQuil hitting me hard

[sharp owl]

Whats that

[rough robin]

hardcore narcotic

[latent palm]

Poped 2 monster and a nyquil

Shit gets fucken lit

It’s literally 5:51am

I just wana die

[wispy bluff]

Suddenly your hyper-active behavior makes a lot more sense

[latent palm]

Youre an ER gibe me help

[wispy bluff]

I'm very much not

[peak sand]

Is there anyway to combat Scouts not dying from fully charged hammer hits? It doesn't happen often but sometimes a fully charged hammer hit to the Scout's head or back of the head doesn't kill it. Maybe in these moments the hammer is actually accidently hitting the shoulder, but at least in the player's POV they hit the Scout on it's head directly. Maybe it's host related, user error, or something else? Also I would never consider doing something so vile to Scouts because Scouts are friends 🙂

I've not seen any issues with killing scouts with Spears, it's usually the hammer where it doesn't work out sometimes

[rose nova]

maybe the range is kinda playin with you plus the trajectory
the spear has range and its trajectory is just straightfoward, so usually u hit where u put ur cursor, most times
hammer has a bit less range and it hits from above to below, so maybe you hit beforehand, the trajectory happens, and when you hit you do a neck shot, which can happen and prevent the scout from dyin
you can try jumpin when youre gonna hit to assure youre gonna hit the head

also make sure its a full charge, extra sure

[peak sand]

Definitely, sometimes hammer charge isn't actually full sometimes. Also jumping sounds like a good idea! I know in first person games the first person animation doesn't 100% correalate to what's happening since it's a seperate pass. I'll give that a shot! Not that I would actually harm a scout... haha

[drifting sparrow]

What I like to do is full charge with hammer and lunge myself to it to get a guaranteed projectory. Does need slight good timing though

[rose nova]

in this case, this game does correlate with whats happenin
knife hits go from lower right to top left, bat from tight to left, hammer up and down

[drifting sparrow]

Don’t do what I do is do an assassins creed drop on the scout. I can do it but easy to mess up xD

[peak sand]

I've also done it a couple of times where you do it right or shortly after the tendrils extend, so when you touch them as you go to hammer them, there's still time to kill them without alerting them. Also the scout is perfectly still during this animation so that also helps with calculating where you need to hit as they're not moving

[rose nova]

yeah, i mean if u run to it while it is fully extendin its tentacles, u still have time to kill it

its just, easier as a newie to wait for it to start doin it, so it stays still and it doesnt fuck u over

or even walkin

[peak sand]

I didn't know that for the longest time, I thought touching them instantly made them invulnerable and immune to weapons
it's only until I accidently did it in R7D1 where I realized that

[rose nova]

yeh, the lil time window
technically shootin em also has that window but it is, miniscule, and hard to do

tho possible

[peak sand]

ooh yeah very true

[rose nova]

thats why u can kill em with guns like rifle or pistol n whatevs

[peak sand]

also probably why the Burst Cannon can be used to kill them in one burst fire
not that I ever tried that I did hear you can do that

[rose nova]

yep

funky

i do it for fun mostly when i have that weapon lmao

[drifting sparrow]

Bro I had a guy do a lunge hammer on a scout and mofo ducked last second when it happened. I was dying of laughter

Scout juked the hell out of him

[peak sand]

I saw something akin to that in one expedition where our teammate tried to kill the scout, but the scout jumped up a huge set of ladders and dodged his swing

[drifting sparrow]

Yeah that pissed me off when scouts do that. Learned to be very patient with that scenario

[peak sand]

I always forget they can jump up ladders like nothing
it's always funny to see when the scout has hops like that

[young stone]

jump while striking

100% time u hit head

never happened to me that i failed with jump

sometimes u can hit it in the neck and it doesnt kill it

[rough robin]

jumping does make it way easier with basically every melee except spear

but you do miss out on style points

[wraith marsh]

seeing another person not jump to melee a scout just looks uncanny at this point

[swift cipher]

Note that the hammer's hitbox/hurtbox is arced, as if you're holding it above your head and then bringing it smashing down to the ground, whereas the spear's is a straight line from your eyes. Aside from jumping, try looking upwards a bit, above the scouts head.

[wraith marsh]

arced with an *

[rough robin]

gigathads knife/bat scouts without jumping

I wonder if GTFO is gonna do that insane thing they did with alt:r5 where they release the next alt rundown, and then have a sale 4 days later for some reason

[wraith marsh]

my brain just expects to see a jump so its weird when it doesnt happen

I really hope theres a free weekend again

would be the perfect time to have it

[rough robin]

it would

[wraith marsh]

I have a few friends who are interested and I think itd be enough to get them on board

[rough robin]

im planning on gifting it to a friend as an early christmas gift and I wanna play through r6 with her

[reef cosmos]

What a sad state this game is in

[rough robin]

I s2g if they do a sale days later for no reason

[wraith marsh]

oo yay we can get this daily convo in now

[pine root]

if only they buffed the spear

[reef cosmos]

Came back here after a year and it's all the same

Just make game an open source at this point, let community fix all the stuff that the devs are too lazy to fix themselves

[pine root]

@wraith marsh is it unique yet

[wraith marsh]

no

actually its even more accurate cuz they say its the same as a year ago

[reef cosmos]

It's just sad to see a game that i've played a shitton back in the 2019 still be the same way after all this time bruh

[pine root]

i hope someone comes in to complain about r1c1

[reef cosmos]

Not here for any drama

[pine root]

now it is new

it has to be

[wraith marsh]

the boring alternative is new, this is so sad

[pine root]

do you wish to free me from reviewing math

and we could play sector 11

[wraith marsh]

sure

[turbid rover]

Hello

Is now a good time to get into GTFO?

[rough robin]

if you got friends or are okay with LFG with random people

[rose nova]

hello, well, u still can, this game has a lot of hours of gameplay

[turbid rover]

I mean is it active enough for the lower level

I'm alone so I'm fine with LFGing randoms

[rough robin]

it seems like it

[rose nova]

yeh, theres a lot of newies joinin constatly

[turbid rover]

Or is it just top level gamers that's left

[rose nova]

and even more in a week

since the game will go on sale

[turbid rover]

So...

wait or?

[rough robin]

the game will probably go on sale in a week when alt:r6 releases

maybe a few days after for no reason like alt:r5

[rose nova]

u can join now the LFG n search for a group

[turbid rover]

I don't have the game yet

[rose nova]

but there will be a lot more newies when it goes on sale

[turbid rover]

I was seeing if it was worth picking up now

[rose nova]

ah then- yeah probs wait for it

[turbid rover]

Since I'm a little late to the party

[rough robin]

sales usually about 30% off so if it's worth waiting for you

[rose nova]

yeah

[turbid rover]

I'll pick it up now and feel it out

Since steam has refunds

[rose nova]

fairs

u can do the tutorial and the first level

'TRAINING' and Rundown 1 A1

even with like bots just to test it out

[turbid rover]

Now to install

[rose nova]

waits

[turbid rover]

I love fiber optic interner

[rose nova]

:O

unwaits

itll be fast then

[reef cosmos]

jump into the training mission then do any R A1

sums up the game for the most parts

[rose nova]

ey :3

[turbid rover]

And the game is done

13gb not even a problem

[rose nova]

:D

is a very smol game for such

complexness

[turbid rover]

Not even just that

1gb symmetrical fiber optic internet

Time for spoop

[rose nova]

time for fear :3

and bat

[turbid rover]

My headset is not charged

Welp

[rose nova]

oh

[turbid rover]

The non-tutorial spoop can wait a second

[rose nova]

well is fine is the gameplay hours that matter, u can have the game for a week

[velvet atlas]

greetings friends

it si i

[rose nova]

hai

it is u

[turbid rover]

My game is stuck on cortex injection initializing

H e l p

Wait no

We're good

[rose nova]

u scare me more than the game
