gtfo-chat

[little ridge]

without alerting room? Sure especially if they're all facing the same way and one of them is a shooter

[serene jewel]

wasn't that like the very beginning

[wispy bluff]

Yeah, the game had 4 different hammer reskins

Then they added the other melees in like OG R6 or something

[serene jewel]

hm, I'll give it a shot

[wispy bluff]

They've been the laughing stock ever since

[junior latch]

hammer does more instant stagger than bat :>

[serene jewel]

I just like the speed of the knife but maybe it's not as big of a pro as I think

[coarse grail]

it doesn't really matter

[wispy bluff]

I mean they do provide different vibe, so it has to count

Hammer is fucking ugly

[coarse grail]

If you think its fun, use it

[serene jewel]

also wow it's impossible to find games via matchmaking

[coarse grail]

but thats about it

[junior latch]

knife has a niche, which is killing smalls (quickly)

[serene jewel]

yes

[junior latch]

if you want that for a level then take it

[mint light]

not

[wispy bluff]

Yeah, that's normal. No one plays in matchmaking - its all about that discord LFG

[mint light]

lfg

[coarse grail]

also use this servers matchmaking #how-to-matchmake

in game matchmaking is ass

[queen galleon]

TY very much.

[serene jewel]

ye

[coarse grail]

Oh also one last thing, machine pistol is a bit of a weird weapon, probably esp weird in solo when you want to start removing enemy threats ASAP. Its hard when that weapon has an effective range of like 5-10m

[queen galleon]

okay

[glacial shard]

is R1A1 good stealth practice map?

[vestal crystal]

no

[glacial shard]

R3A1?

[vestal crystal]

r6d3 r5d1

[burnt flume]

A newer player looking to avoid waking enemies up could probably do any map tbh

[wispy bluff]

Define stealth practicing

Stabbing sleeping enemies? Almost any level is good for that.

[glacial shard]

sneaking around for majority of the map

[last parrot]

r3c1 is a decent level at that

[opaque folio]

R7C3PE🤫

[wispy bluff]

I don't think they have that unlocked.

[burnt flume]

Yeah sure just throw the new player into r7c3 with optionals

[opaque folio]

XD

[vestal crystal]

i think he's just playing the wrong game

[coarse grail]

Do you mean to practice solo or with a team?

[glacial shard]

solo, with bots

[burnt flume]

You may have a point

[glacial shard]

what? I love this game, its just hard

[burnt flume]

The game isn't that much stealth once you really get going

[coarse grail]

Most levels are fine, R1B1 maybe?

If you want to practice killing regular enemies in stealth

[analog flicker]

4 prisoners armed with sledge hammers running full sprint are on a massacre in the complex

[glacial shard]

isn't R1B1 personnel id's?

[analog flicker]

Yes

[vestal crystal]

you say you dislike going loud, and are looking for level that is mainly stealth when in reality this game is a horde shooter with stealth elements, not a stealth game

[analog flicker]

Get 12 IDs. 7 different Zones with varying ID counts up to 18 total

[mint light]

He means you still think this is a stealth game

[mint light]

R1B1 might be just wat you look for actually

[analog flicker]

R1B1 does have some alarms but none of them are particularly difficult

[strange vine]

Tips on r1d1?

[analog flicker]

Preferably stealth rooms to the best of your ability.
If you end up needing resource after the first alarm you can open the side doors for more (these will be filled with enemies)

[true pilot]

dont open side zones till you do the alarms

dont die

[mint light]

Solo hold first class IV with 1 or 2 sentries. clear next zone. have 2 sentries clear the class V waves. clear next zone. have 2 sentries clear class V waves or shoot em. (for real easy, foam ladder. alarm is free)
Go to reactor, grab resources l, have bio be on his A game. when last scan is done: run

20 min +-

and you done

This should be without going into resources. if you go in them, well ... never been there so no clue

[true pilot]

if you open the side zones before doing alarms it gets really hard

The zones themselvrs can also be tricky

[mint light]

Well luckily I do not suffer from these issues 😏

[true pilot]

yeah

[little ridge]

I wouldn't go as far as to call it an horde shooter

but yeah, kinda

[little ridge]

Point is, you sneak around to kill stuff, not really to avoid it, save for some particular cases (R6D3 and even there you COULD technically wake everything up)

Or for when you really cant be bothered to clear room X because it's more than 2 rooms away so no wave is gonna spawn there and wake shit up

Still, I'd start with R1B1

Try to kill as many as you can (no bots, just you) without waking the room up

First room has a good bunch

Then try to do it faster

Then try to wake the room up and kite around

Then try to do 1-2-3 together and see how fast you can clear without taking damage or taking as little as you can

[gray pilot]

dont make them angry!!

[little ridge]

Make them angry and bonk them

[gray pilot]

are you going to stealth your way through r2d2 now, lord luna?

[glacial shard]

only the starting bit

[gray pilot]

i believe in you

[glacial shard]

just had a guy dip on me in LFG for picking R2D2

[unreal crystal]

I’m excited to see your progress

That level is a hard stealth, but I think you’ve got it in a few tries

[radiant ether]

I hope you'll get the completion that you always deserved Lord Luna! ❤️

[vestal crystal]

going to stealth the first room before the blood door? thats pretty sick

[glacial shard]

first run failed cause friendly heard "warm" and not "worm"

[coarse grail]

put it in chat 🙂

[mint light]

Ellda is right, always type it in chat to be 100% on the safe side

good luck

and put in the code at the last 10 seconds so you have more time to loot side zones. you want to touch the reactor resources as late as possible

[green rivet]

Pub

[unreal crystal]

Shut the fuck up

[wispy bluff]

Or you can always do "can you spell" thing and provide examples like "WORM as in WORMS in my backyard"

[glacial shard]

lost the game cause someone fucked stealth with a room with 5 giants and a bunch of shooters

we had no ammo

[cedar wing]

out of curiosity, what was the run?

[wispy bluff]

People should really lay off the sprint button...

[glacial shard]

R2D2 stage 3 I think

[cedar wing]

rip, gl next time

[glacial shard]

I hate mutes

[cedar wing]

:(

[glacial shard]

only 3/4 people talked

[vestal crystal]

Problem is not the talking brotherman

[wispy bluff]

Mutes are fine

They usually play better. Usually.

[mystic moss]

surely if all 4/4 people talked you would've gotten the clear
communication is key !

[glacial shard]

also sleepers kept spawning way after the wave was over

[mystic moss]

r2d2 do be like that

[glacial shard]

or more precisely kept coming

[cedar wing]

Yeah they can lag behind, best to run back 2 rooms just to check, especially on levels with very large rooms

[wispy bluff]

One guy should always stay behind and watch out for them stragglers. Maybe even close a door.

[coarse grail]

exclusive missions for big content creators? 🥲

[junior latch]

im not big enough

am smol

[vestal crystal]

I love exclusive content!

[mystic moss]

mom i wanna be a gtfo influencer

[glacial shard]

not even gonna try to make content creation for GTFO with my bad skill

[coarse grail]

Maybe Markiplier will invite me to play R9A1 with him

[unique comet]

exposure of the game > fixing bugs
apparently

[coarse grail]

I don't really get it

If they are gonna make new levels to incentivise creators to promote the game

why not just promote the game with new levels

[hollow quarry]

That is not in the plans

[unique comet]

at least GTFO has more viewers than Diablo 4

[junior latch]

because those exclude each other?

[coarse grail]

2. Once accepted, you will have access to exclusive missions, rewards and organic campaigns
   What does this refer to?

[glacial shard]

I heard some bugs are here from day 1

[cedar wing]

weren't some of the bugs hard to reproduce due to network issues?

[junior latch]

might be old info still?

[unique comet]

🚪

[coarse grail]

Is this not a new thing? I assumed as it was just announced it was new

or am I tripping something

[vestal crystal]

If they are spending developer resources on making exclusive maps for content creators instead of working on the existing game then they aren't necessarily exclusive

[hollow quarry]

Ah, missions within the Lurkit platform

[junior latch]

i can not believe @hollow quarry would PERSONALLY hate all content creators below 25 viewers avg on twitch and below 1000 subs on youtube smh (jk, love ya calle)

[coarse grail]

I see, and those missions are like bounties for content creators to hit

I saw something like this before, okay

[mint light]

Did not loot the side zones well then. you should be stacked through

[burnt flume]

99% of gtfo players will never be this big

[unique comet]

you should be worried about the stream snipers, who play as sleepers

[glacial shard]

someone kept typing codes too soon

I think it was the mute

[hollow quarry]

If you are a dedicated GTFO creator, reach out to me, we will be making exceptions in those cases (and deny people that go above those numbers, if they don't fit)

[raw shard]

I feel like the twitch and youtube thing is very one or the other in this community

[mint light]

well that's just rude then

[raw shard]

you're either big on twitch or on youtube

[hollow quarry]

In that case, create a lurkit account, ping me personally and I can invite

[glacial shard]

we had 30 seconds to Type a code

[cedar wing]

Would be awesome if Bricky made another gtfo series tho

[glacial shard]

it was the mute this whole time

[vestal crystal]

Stop blaming the mute lol

[burnt flume]

he was streaming a few days ago so he might, idk

[coarse grail]

I don't think you need to be big on both, just one or the other

[modern coral]

I am sure that there are no other factors involved in your R2D2 loss.

[raw shard]

Oh I see

[mint light]

Especially his team was feeding him disinfo the whole time

[raw shard]

Don't specify if it's either or but I assumed it meant at least both

[glacial shard]

popular youtubers make poor reviewers

[burnt flume]

the mutes can be crazy but it's stupid to blame them for everything, that being said, I can blame a mute for losing a different r2d2 run

[cedar wing]

That adds to the fun xD

[unique comet]

any plans on adding community-made rundowns to the game? the same way Killing Floor 2 made some custom-made maps official?

[modern coral]

I only blame mutes when they take bio on R7D2 and then refuse to clear waves.

Which has happened like 3 times.

[mystic moss]

a good gtfo player would adapt to the situation !

[glacial shard]

adapt with fuckin what? 5 bullets?

[unique comet]

a knife

[cedar wing]

glowsticks

[unique comet]

introduce a new tool: glow-stick gun
uses glowsticks as ammo

[burnt flume]

finally, I can fire off glowsticks somewhere I'll never have to see them

[unique comet]

this tool counters moths

[mint light]

mêlee the mobs

[hollow quarry]

Probably not IN the game, no

[unique comet]

I'm just thinking of the future of GTFO after R8

[vestal crystal]

lol

[mystic moss]

probably the biggest factor in your wipe imo
not really an incentive to go fast and you'd probably have time to loot

[hollow quarry]

Ofc. If it happens, it would probably be not IN the game, or Steam Workshop or anything

[unique comet]

[glacial shard]

show me speed stealth

[raw shard]

hold w

[vivid panther]

or big rooms with 8+ scouts

[vestal crystal]

Voxy teaching arc

[glacial shard]

like clearing a room in under 2 minutes and get the code

[mystic moss]

nah i'm relegating this to @modern coral

[coarse grail]

Run around charging your hammer part ways then cancelling, if you see an enemy don't cancel and hit it

if you see 2 enemies walk and hit the first one then hit the second one

[mint light]

enough vids on this

[wispy bluff]

It's literally just about being confident and Agressive

[vestal crystal]

😳

[wispy bluff]

As long as you don't sprint you can just chain melee everything you see minus giants - they usually force you to slow down, but smalls are free game.

[hollow tendon]

I don't get it

[unique comet]

what seems to be the issue

[hollow tendon]

The game is about to end with R8 (which is soon assuming the devs actually work on their game), but they start a creator program right now ?

Wouldn't it have been better to do that earlier to promote the game ?

[unique comet]

I wouldn't bet on "soon"

[hollow tendon]

Well

[swift wyvern]

Proximity wake mechanics decreases the trivial nature of "just chain melee"

[hollow tendon]

"assuming the devs actually work"

which is not a thing

[swift wyvern]

The challenges of the game moves on from clearing rooms by C levels anyway

[wispy bluff]

The one true value of LRF... It is what it is.

[hollow tendon]

The challenge is to actually get 25 viewers with GTFO only

[raw shard]

it really doesn't if you know which ones to prio and have your team with you

[coarse grail]

if you have 4 people you can kinda just do whatever

[burnt flume]

why would I use LRF to sync rooms when whatever light I have on my gun does the same thing

[unique comet]

oh, they do work. just not on GTFO

[burnt flume]

like you don't quite need the LRF's whatever the hell

[hollow tendon]

Shoulda made a 10C content creator role instead

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/834497807007350854.webp?size=48&name=catWut&quality=lossless

[wispy bluff]

Better, bigger... I can actually fucking see...

Lights up lockers and crates real good too while at it.

[swift wyvern]

Can we make spear balanced by making it so that I can just fuckin' yeet it like a javelin???

[unique comet]

for anyone who is learning the game, play solo with bots. no one will make decisions for you, giving you an opportunity to learn GTFO fast
it takes a few fuck ups to learn a lesson

[hollow quarry]

Yes, but we had the opportunity now, and hopefully GTFO will have a life after R8. The amount of content available will be massive, and we are not stepping away from it in a community sense

[shut vapor]

Wrong, get carried 😎

[mystic moss]

reall

[swift wyvern]

I don't know how "allowed" this comment is so feel free to delete it but: The best way to ensure a game's longevity is to open up community tools 😉 What are 10ccs thoughts on this post R8?

[modern coral]

MONO BUILD

[hollow quarry]

I think we can agree to that but nothing to announce/promise right now

[unique comet]

a lot of meaningful content is better. there's so much asset reuse, we see the same tiles over and over, just rearranged differently. R8 really has to be some unique shit as the finale of the campaign

[hollow quarry]

Or we accidently just release the dev build again 🙂

[raw shard]

oopsie

[glacial shard]

real Chads put dev build in public build as optional

[vivid panther]

I want a list of most used tiles

[hollow quarry]

I mean, you are still having a bit of fun, even if the room layouts are shuffled?

[hollow tendon]

No actually

[raw shard]

The game could definitely do with a couple more normal tiles for variety

[hollow tendon]

There's no form of "exploration" once you've seen all of the assets over and over

Which is what interested me in the first place

[coarse grail]

walking around on similar tiles doesn't seem like a big deal to me

[swift wyvern]

Please don't listen to this person we don't all want devs to break their backs to create new content that won't ever get as much use so that the tileset can be different
I just want the lore of the game to conclude

[coarse grail]

As long as the objective and challenge in the level is interesting

[hollow tendon]

Some maps are literally the same asset used twice & mirrored

[raw shard]

It's by far not boring for me yet lmao

New tiles are just exciting though

[unique comet]

there are some rather memorable missions but even after beating them all ten times over, I struggle to remember all the mission by name. the objectives are fun, the cooperation with players is fun. but seeing the same tiles gets dull

[swift wyvern]

People will have 14389 hours and be like "wow everything looks the same" 🙄

[hollow quarry]

I can see that, if one of your driving forces is exploration

[visual lily]

@hollow quarry ngl that was one of the best best announcements after a while

[shut vapor]

💯

[hollow tendon]

"we don't all want devs to break their backs" well you can be sure that even without your comment they won't do it

They're very well known

[hollow quarry]

Which one, the Creator Program?

[visual lily]

yep

[vivid panther]

Maybe consider making more unique props which can be placed in existing maps
and have them drive a narrative

[glacial shard]

R2D2 is too hard

[shut vapor]

When are they remaking the route i take to go to work so I can see new stuff

[raw shard]

I mean, the recent patch notes have been pretty baller too. lost of annoying things fixed

[mint light]

it aint

[hollow quarry]

Love hearing it, it has been in the works for some time

[modern coral]

Shoot good, loot good.

[mint light]

it's not even the hardest reactor

[swift wyvern]

Move from A levels (car transit) to B levels (public transit)

[burnt flume]

hearing from some people applying that the bar to even be able to apply/sign up is a lot more than you can get from being a dedicated player/streamer in this space

[shut vapor]

R3a3 hardest reactor

[burnt flume]

because well, it's a niche/smaller game, not as many people to build a community from

[hollow tendon]

That & difficulty

[mint light]

don't talk to me bout that level

[hollow tendon]

Since you obliterated the difficulty side of the game, the only thing left is exploration

[vestal crystal]

Maybe you can ask BLACK_DRAGON to help you again

[shut vapor]

It's so difficult to stay awake wym

[hollow tendon]

which only existed in the first 100h

[vestal crystal]

[hollow quarry]

It's interesting how different aspects of the game gets different type of people excited. Exploration, lore, co-op, the hardcore aspect. It's hard to accomodate all of them

[mint light]

It's so f in boring I can't stand it

[shut vapor]

Buses don't run at 11pm

[hollow quarry]

Haha, man, some perspective may be good here

[hollow tendon]

I was interested in lore but not to the point of obliterating gameplay to make purely lore-related levels (cf R6 ext)

[modern coral]

Eh, we've had the R4+R5 replay.

R7 is just better.

[swift wyvern]

Try a C level (walking home at 11PM)

[shut vapor]

I'm not spending an hour and a half walking home

[hollow tendon]

In the end that makes 3 rundowns out of 7 that are "worth" difficulty wise

[shut vapor]

After driving for 8 hours

[modern coral]

R4 and R5 are basically only their E-tiers.

[hollow tendon]

Well

[modern coral]

if I'm being honest.

[hollow tendon]

3 out of 6 since R1 was to introduce the game anyway

[unique comet]

you gotta really feed your writers now to finish R8 and the game, Calle. let the Warden save the world or let the prisoners get a taste of freedom that is even worse than being the prisoner because Earth is a freaking wasteland
feed the writers

[hollow tendon]

Even R4E1 is piss easy now

[shut vapor]

Fuck the warden

[modern coral]

The changes are dumb af, but it is also largely just the same.

[swift wyvern]

Can R8F1 have the Portal Gun please

[unique comet]

if you are into sex with machines, go for it

[visual lily]

@hollow quarry so just to get this straight do gtfo vets also get access to these missions?

[shut vapor]

How i want the game to end:

The prisoners escape and find an island to leave peacefully, in the ending cutscene: shirtless hackett

[modern coral]

R4 mostly had a terrible weapon roster, and that's assuming you didn't play the true mega-sweat loadout.

[raw shard]

gtfo cutscenes when?

[mystic moss]

its called the drop sequence

[raw shard]

so true actually

[hollow tendon]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[raw shard]

my favourite cutscene

If you're playing on gardens you get the feature length edition

[modern coral]

Naw, half-life taught us not to need custscenes.

[swift wyvern]

Bishop instead, but I agree

[hollow tendon]

You know it would've been amazing if the trailers summarized the lore of the previous rundowns

[raw shard]

I think cutscenes would be kinda cool in this game ngl

[modern coral]

Hunt Down the Freeman taught us to really not need cutscenes.

[unreal crystal]

oh god

[raw shard]

Not excessive amounts

[vivid panther]

honestly I want #game_suggestions channel back so I can have my popcorn to eat

[shut vapor]

Imagine we playing r4c1 for the first time and we open the door towards extract and a tank cutscene plays with it roaring

[hollow tendon]

game suggestion is a good explanation of why the game is artificially hard for people

[gusty burrow]

Calle explained that they have no plans for actual exclusive expeditions, the 'missions' referenced might be a lurkit term

[shut vapor]

Shame it would break the flow

[swift wyvern]

The game does have cutscenes, but instead of showing you the content with a programmed camera, you get to explore the cutscene and look around yourself

[hollow tendon]

They're so damn stupid you'd wonder how they can still walk with their 2 legs

[visual lily]

[hollow quarry]

I'll feed them Swedish Fika!

[swift wyvern]

interested

[unique comet]

do it

[hollow quarry]

It's not GTFO missions in the game, it's what Lurkit calls their challenges. The first one is for example "Mention that you are part of the GTFO creator program" and you are rewarded

[glacial shard]

is it me or Burst Turrets feel like they shoot bb's?

also sleepers run past them no issue

[visual lily]

I see

[swift wyvern]

auto turret shoots bbs

[modern coral]

USE YOUR GUNS

[unique comet]

sentries are not meant to do all the work for you. they assist you

[swift wyvern]

burst turrets use bbs (faster)

[fading magnet]

Heard your looking for a streamer that is clinically scared of horror games to play live and wake up his entire house making content ?

[radiant ether]

You need to use booster. Skill efficiency +99%

[modern coral]

Also burst sentries are kind of OP these days.

[swift wyvern]

Where do I get that booster from? Never heard of it 🤔

[wispy bluff]

I brought 3 bursts for class V scan in R2B2.
I saw exactly 2 biters after finishing the scan.

[unique comet]

unavailable to you, sadge

[vestal crystal]

Idk how you're saying this when you saw one burst sentry solo hold the 1st alarm of r2d1 yesterday....

[glacial shard]

when?

[vestal crystal]

Yesterday

[gray pilot]

gtfo content creators unite

[unique comet]

🦗

[vestal crystal]

Maybe you forgot it was an alarm because we didn't have to shoot anything

[wispy bluff]

It takes 2 bursts to kill a biter

[visual lily]

Calle

[glacial shard]

and in R2D2 3 bursts can't kill anything

[visual lily]

That minimum requirements

Why

[wispy bluff]

Probably same for shooters if it aims for the head

[modern coral]

That is because there are more enemies.

It would be much worse with no sentries.

[visual lily]

@hollow quarry should have removed the minimal requirements

[knotty bobcat]

Burst sentry goated
1 burst to stun
second burst to kill

[hollow quarry]

On the creator program? Then we would have Mr and Mrs Rando applying, we don't want that

[swift wyvern]

I also agree, requiring YouTube subs and Twitch viewers doesn't apply to people who are making fan art or Steam guides?

[fading magnet]

Where do we sign up for the program. I have around 60 ccv and could def make some hilarious fun content with this

[swift wyvern]

Sure it's a good way to weed out randos (like me) but what about people who contribute lots to the community but would never utilize those platforms?

(unlike me)

[gusty burrow]

"If a creator is an insanely good fit for GTFO, we reserve the right to make an exception."
Literally right after the requirements.

[mint light]

You guys need to shoot. there is no magic that gon happen

[hollow quarry]

Yea, but we are also saying that you can reach out. Lurkit as a platform is mainly focused on Twitch and Youtube (video) but we can probably work something out.

[glacial shard]

won't have enough ammo

[unique comet]

@MrRandom no luck, mate

[knotty bobcat]

Wdym I can't have turrets just kill everything for me?

[mint light]

there is more than enough !!!

[glacial shard]

nuhuh

[mint light]

you can, not on R2D2

[swift wyvern]

That's not an answer

[modern coral]

Then you're not looting very effectively, lmao.

[junior latch]

you can skip a lot of ammo in the level and still be fine

[wispy bluff]

Bring supply efficiency then

[modern coral]

Don't bring supply efficiency, it teaches bad habits.

[wispy bluff]

Invalidates half the levels in this game

[mint light]

There is enough ammo to do the whole map and still be stacked at the end.

[knotty bobcat]

Bring supply efficiency, and then grind for more supply efficiency when it runs out

[modern coral]

Loot every side zone fully when you go there.

[vestal crystal]

voxy pls help this poor soul 😭

[unique comet]

spoiler alert: there is enough ammo to finish every mission in GTFO

[coarse grail]

Something is going wrong in the shooting perhaps

[glacial shard]

on what timer? No time to loot

[mint light]

bruh

[wispy bluff]

Not alone.

With a team though...

[hollow quarry]

This is the first step of the creator program. I also had a meeting with another platform yesterday that has more options for creators outside video. And, again, reach out if you are interested in collaborating

[modern coral]

Even alone, lmao.

[unique comet]

which mission are they doing?

[wispy bluff]

One guy pings, the rest B-line for the package

[coarse grail]

R2D2

[hollow quarry]

But if I want to shoot all the time, on everything?

[swift wyvern]

I'm not, I have no skills to contribute with (skll issue)

[severe trench]

If I happened to be “accepted” am I allowed to create a SEPERATE yt account for gtfo content creation instead of my main?

[modern coral]

Unironically a good strat on that level, though.

[severe trench]

Cuz it just seems so different unless it’s required to stay on the main acc

[glacial shard]

no 1000 subs

so gotta be main

[unique comet]

R2D2 is tough, gotta try over and over if you are new. that's pretty much it

[cinder pebble]

F

[modern coral]

If you're struggling to make progress quickly, you can shortcut a lack of stealth skill by shooting through rooms.

[swift wyvern]

Or meta game it 😉

[modern coral]

Really only the scouts are a bit spooky there.

[severe trench]

I could just go into the creative art category for gtfo rather than gtfo gameplay content

[modern coral]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RmBFueQBVE

This is much easier with 3 other humans.

[swift wyvern]

Idk if you've gotten as far as R2D2 without knowing this, but just in case: You don't have to put the code in as soon as you find it. You can run down the clock and use that time to restock and reposition

[modern coral]

Omg, 0.1s HEL Gun is so fast...

[cinder pebble]

Good old days 😭

[swift wyvern]

That gives you some time to communicate and distribute resources during R2D2, but you need good comms and people need self sufficiency

[glacial shard]

I know that, a guy on my team wasted 30 seconds by putting it in fast

[swift wyvern]

L

[coarse grail]

are you holding on the bridge?

[modern coral]

I know we've been joking about that, but that genuinely should not matter.

[coarse grail]

If you defend in some crackpot corner you might get delayed waves

[modern coral]

The free codes are just ZZZzzzz downtime.

[glacial shard]

First few waves, then by the door

[modern coral]

You don't have time to loot the actual side areas.

[coarse grail]

wdym by the door

[glacial shard]

the door that opens on the side

[swift wyvern]

Don't take any resources with you when you go to explore the side areas, too.. immediately gobble anything you find when you're not in the reactor room

[coarse grail]

I think that might be bad

[vestal crystal]

whos idea was that?

[coarse grail]

but idk, just hold on the bridge

[modern coral]

Also, reactor is so trivial to loot, that insta-coding shouldn't matter at all.

[cinder pebble]

That is one of the main issues with defending in one of the side zones actually, never realized how delayed the waves are.

[modern coral]

^

[cinder pebble]

Bridge is optimal, just put sentries on each side

[modern coral]

You can have 1 person not at the front

grab an ammo

and come back

If missing that one person is a big deal, either it isn't and you're just blaming them or they were hard carrying the wave clear.

[thin dawn]

not to my group 😭

[swift wyvern]

People having 574839 hours being like "Game is easy" 🙄

[cinder pebble]

Our group still hasn't attempted e1 yet

[modern coral]

AltR4E1 is just a clear demonstration that most R4 players were hot garbage.

[cinder pebble]

Lol

[wispy bluff]

R2D2 is quite hard, but far from the worst the game has to offer.

[cinder pebble]

R2D2 best reactor IMO

[wispy bluff]

It could be.

R4D1 was okay too.

[cinder pebble]

Actually idk anymore

[thin dawn]

my group actually beat r2d2

cant clear an e level yet tho lmao

[knotty bobcat]

Actually tho
New player going through a mission for the first time, completely blind, and obviously going to struggle because this game is brutal.
''oh wow lol you're stuck on that mission? it's so easy''

Finally got around to beating R2E1 a few days ago, after maybe 5 failed attempts total.
''Lol lmao but its the easiest E level''

[wispy bluff]

Classic gamer moment

It's sometimes true but like...

Some people are just... Uh... Dare I say inferior?

[thin dawn]

the EASIEST??

[knotty bobcat]

Skill issue ☝️ 🤓

[knotty bobcat]

Apperantly. It's the only E i've done so far though.

[surreal plaza]

Wish I can buy the model w hyperseal irl man when it rains my backyard literally becomes Louisiana

[thin dawn]

my group just falls apart at the final surge alarms

and all the damn fog

[knotty bobcat]

Also super fun when they say ''oh it's easy just c-foam stall the ladder''

oh so, it's easy if you just cheese the entire thing?

Who would've thunk

[visual lily]

Lmao love these type of players

[thin dawn]

weve tried out chaos a few times but having someone have to babysit the immortal is so boring

[visual lily]

Guy said r5e1 extreme is easy and bro cheesed p mom fight

[thin dawn]

(and we also died)

[wispy bluff]

Was I there?...

[visual lily]

Nope

Or maybe

Not sure

[knotty bobcat]

This game is only as fun as it is hard.
I feel like once i've played through all the rundowns, and know them well enough to do em all easily because I know what to expect and what to do. Aka having foresight and not being blindsided by that fucking 3 Hybrid error alarm.

I'll probably stop playing the game

[wispy bluff]

What does cheesing a mother looks like. Door bug?

[visual lily]

Dont know if its patched but you could get to a spot where babies couldnt get you and you could shoot mom from above

There was a little metal railing where babies would get stuck

[cedar wing]

I've forgotten which rundown it was, maybe r3 5 or 6 c2 but there's a spot you can stand to bypass the entire sustain alarm, takes a lot of the challenge out of the following 3 hybrid error lol

[vernal nebula]

Prisoner efficiencies, challenge runs, and speedruns are a fun way to increase longevity but if you’re only interested in casual pug lobbies I understand.

[knotty bobcat]

We're challenging ourselves by doing PE from the start.
We're not going main first, then PE:
It's PE first, no exceptions.

[outer gull]

Doing dumb shit keeps the game fun too, once you reach a high enough skill level, you can take dumb loadouts and have fun running through old levels

[vernal nebula]

Sounds like fun

[outer gull]

Good shit 😤

[knotty bobcat]

Makes it especially fun when every mission takes nearly 2 hours

[visual lily]

Tru

[knotty bobcat]

We don't fail alot though.
We fucking struggle and barely get by the skin of our teeth, but we somehow manage in the end.

And that's with 2 bots as dead weight

[ionic pollen]

It took my crew about 12 hours worth of tries to get r2e1, with the first surge in the big foggy area after the error alarm starting being the pressure point.

The thing that made the difference eventually was having an auto sentry that i carried with me and plonked down on every scan

[visual lily]

Have you beaten everything?

Or are there still some levels ?

[outer gull]

Yeah thats fair, eventually once you get a comfy feel for the enemy mechanics and levels you can usually cut out 30-45 mins without being uber sweaty

[knotty bobcat]

The only 2 missions I remember failing at right now is the 3 hybrid error and R2E1

[knotty bobcat]

Lots more levels.
We're done with R1 to R3.
Halfway through R4, 5, 6 and 7.

[visual lily]

Ah

[knotty bobcat]

7 We actually got a bunch of challenge zones left cuz we Did R1, then R7 for the lore, so we were noobies going through R7
And the bulk doors intimated us too much to go into them

R4 we went halfway with a trio friendo, they stopped playing, and we decided to do R5 while doing R4 with them to keep things fresh for us all.
And we went into R6 because it just launched so obviously we had to touch the shiny

Our plan of going through each Rundown 1 by 1 went out the window

[mint light]

yes

[thin dawn]

my group does that but not all of them are as dedicated as others so sometimes they leave halfway through because its too hard or draining

we tried out r5b3 i think? diversion. we tried it and got wiped like 3 times, how is that a b tier level 😭

[torn grove]

Mine is well past 12 hours LMAO

Today is the day tho

[thin dawn]

no way we can get our r2e1 any time soon

[torn grove]

And that's one of the problems with my team. I'm like the only one that places sentry reactively

But I main bio

[thin dawn]

rough

[mint light]

you playing R5

it's the hardest rundown

[thin dawn]

ah

[mint light]

there ya go

[torn grove]

R5 is a step above every other rundown

[thin dawn]

yeah i could tell with all the PEs

[torn grove]

I still need to clear C3-E1

[coarse grail]

I still say R7E1 is easier than R2E1

[mint light]

R4 has more PE's tho

[coarse grail]

I guess its a little close

[torn grove]

The only other missions I haven't beaten r the E's

[thin dawn]

r2 was a pain, the infection is very annoying lol

[torn grove]

Annoying but not hard

Relatively

[thin dawn]

this is true

my team has yet to beat an e

[mint light]

R2E1 is easier than R7E1 imo

ofc it depends on the team

[eternal maple]

R7E1 is way too RNG based

If you get bad pmom/mom spawns the run is bascially over

[mint light]

It's not. never saw an RNG that made the level impossible. Just harder

[mint light]

That's just cope

[eternal maple]

Highly disagree

I had the final room have both pmom and charger scout

[mint light]

I had pmom, charger scout and babies in the tunnel

still made it

it's just a stealth thing

[torn grove]

DJ is right. It comes down to skill

[mint light]

it's NEVER IMPOSSIBLE

[eternal maple]

Nah its luck

[torn grove]

Rng won't make anything impossible

There's very few instances where luck is the deciding factor

[eternal maple]

I mean sure that goes for 99% of levels

[mint light]

stay on copium

[torn grove]

It's all skill and understanding of mechanics/how to abuse them

[mint light]

It will just make it harder, never impossible

[torn grove]

Maybe not abuse, but use them to ur advantage

[eternal maple]

and rarely does it ever happen

[swift wyvern]

E levels have like, a 95% failure rate, and that's of the runs where people manage to even get there

Beating an E level is an accomplishment, no matter what E levels

[eternal maple]

But unless you get lucky with how a charger scout decides to behave with a pmom in the room, chances are you are gonna get got

[steel marsh]

no matter how you do it

[swift wyvern]

This was a hot take last time I said it and I'll say it again:
Perma foaming doors and ladder foam is not cheese because they're intended game mechanics

[torn grove]

Patience and timing. Sync melee kill charger scout or cfoam if u have it

[steel marsh]

when i was trying to do R2E1 someone in the squad was losing their mind that we wanted to rush the alarm door for the baby haha

[knotty bobcat]

I see you've commissioned ArtzyTea x3

[steel marsh]

it was a little raffle gift!

[latent palm]

[swift wyvern]

Cheese is using hardware enforced spawn limits to beat a level, or use pathing errors, for instance

[torn grove]

It's not cheese, but it is an abuse of mechanics

[knotty bobcat]

What's permafoaming a door?

[torn grove]

Which some people would consider cheese

[steel marsh]

wait then i have a question

[torn grove]

Constantly cfoaming while other do scans

[swift wyvern]

Funnelling enemies to a single door, and having someone just sit there and foam it while everyone else scans

It's doable on the last few zones in R2E1 during the error alarm scans

[knotty bobcat]

I've heard that referred to C-foam stalling.

But C-foam ladder is definitely cheese

[last parrot]

that is a strategy

[latent palm]

u dont know perma foam?

[last parrot]

youre using up tool in exchange for less shooty

[swift wyvern]

I think that enemies should have stall and half repath

[knotty bobcat]

C-foam stall c:

[swift wyvern]

But as it is right now, that's how the game works and it's clearly intended (not a bug)

[steel marsh]

so after the surge wave where you plug the ladder, if you rush the class four alarm for the neonate, that wouldnt be a cheese cause even though you might be maxing the spawn, the enemies would still not be able to get to you cause the ladder is foamed

[rose nova]

cfoam ladder is not a cheese, and i defend it cause 10c got a video tellin people to foam a ladder, so they accept u can foam the stairs

[swift wyvern]

So I wouldn't even call it abuse

[steel marsh]

yeah

[silk blade]

If you have 4 people with foam you can foam delay for a long time

[knotty bobcat]

Ah nice.They're a friend of mine-

[silk blade]

It's very inefficient but also funny

[torn grove]

I mean ya but it's not a vital resource in the middle of an alarm

[steel marsh]

tell them i said hi :3

[torn grove]

And ur not shooting when everything is stuck behind a door

[silk blade]

If you do the foam delay and have a mine down it's good

[last parrot]

but you're draining a cfoam launcher

you're basically trading your tool refill to keep your ammo

[knotty bobcat]

Isn't c-foaming a ladder forcing the enemies to go up the ladder 1 by 1, since they can't climb the ladder while is foamed on it?

[silk blade]

Yea

[latent palm]

any one that says perma foam/ foam ladder is a cheese/abuse can go design a level then

[torn grove]

I don't really see what point ur arguing. Permafoaming being cheese or what?

[junior latch]

perma foaming doors isnt, its kinda boring at times but its an intended mechanic to foam doors

ladder foam definetly isnt intended and is cheese lol

[silk blade]

Foaming the door to save bullets is good

If you finish all scans and have a mine down when they break in they all die

If you have a surplus of tool but less ammo then it's def a good option

[torn grove]

R u trying to argue that permafoam being cheese or what?

[unreal crystal]

so what argument are we having today

[last parrot]

im arguing its perfectly legal

[junior latch]

if you foam the ladder and run to the class 4 it breaks them even more. They legit take until foam expires if foam is left to get through

[torn grove]

Nobody said it wasn't

[last parrot]

nobody?

[junior latch]

foam on ladder =/= permafoaming a door

[latent palm]

good stream yesterday

loved it

[torn grove]

Ok that's definitely cheese

[steel marsh]

i know thats why we did it :3

[torn grove]

I'm aware

[junior latch]

when you are 2 rooms away from a foamed ladder only 1 enemy can get on the ladder at all. But he wont go up/down until the foam is gone, hell just refreeze every 8 seconds (i think) effectively wasting time until the foam vanishes after 4 min

[swift wyvern]

Idk how it's not an intended mechanic at this point

[junior latch]

"at this point" how would it ever change lol

[torn grove]

[swift wyvern]

It's been in the game for as long as I can remember, and would be trivial to change pathing mechanics

[junior latch]

you can stall for 1 min with 20% foam on a ladder lol

[latent palm]

best foam cheese is the smol ladder to a smol door and 1 big blob gets 1 guy => the rest cant climb up lol

[junior latch]

that 20% foam doesnt even last 20 seconds on a door

[wispy bluff]

Better enemy pathing, make foam ricoshet of ladders, make foam not work while on ladders...

[swift wyvern]

Sounds like using knowledge of game mechanics and the environment to your advantage then..

[junior latch]

it already does, you only need 1 shot to land and stack the rest on that (until a certain amount, then its better to do more blobs)

[swift wyvern]

Which is not cheese

[knotty bobcat]

You can't cheese a game if you dont know the game mechanics
Cheesing is by definition exploiting game mechanics

[junior latch]

door bug is not an exploit then ?

[swift wyvern]

Cheese has to be unintended by the design of the game

If it's intended, it's not cheese

[junior latch]

ladder foam in how it works IS NOT INTENDED LOL

[swift wyvern]

How? Show me

[junior latch]

???????

[swift wyvern]

Its been in the game forever

And would be trivial to change

[junior latch]

because how would you fix that shit

[rose nova]

idk how u would change it

at all

[torn grove]

"show me"

[swift wyvern]

Pathing is one of the most understood and commonly implemented AI functions

[rose nova]

not havin... collisions for 2 meters when enemies go down ladders?

[swift wyvern]

It's trivial to calculate a path

[junior latch]

enemies not breaking doors shurely is intended aswell then right? cuz theres a chance they dont break doors when you far enough away :>

[rose nova]

sometimes the only way to go through a room is with a ladder

[swift wyvern]

If they couldn't calculate the path, then they wouldn't ever use the ladder in the first place

[vestal crystal]

ladder foam only works due to collision, its not intended for 1 foamed enemy to block a whole spawn cap's worth

[junior latch]

yea but where the fuck does calculating a path help with that

L opinion

[wispy bluff]

@hollow quarry @untold ravine is foaming ladders and the massive value you get out of it an intended / approved mechanic

[rose nova]

if theres a room with just the entrance of a ladder

how do u path

how do u path away

have enemies just, drop down and get fall damage?

[glacial shard]

guys, I did R2D2

[torn grove]

Congrats!

[rose nova]

nice

[torn grove]

We're having a pointless argument in here :3

[rose nova]

sorry :3

[torn grove]

@rose nova oh hi slendi, didn't realize that was u

[rose nova]

nono its, jeff

[torn grove]

@rose nova

[rose nova]

_>

[swift wyvern]

If that's the case, the level design reflects the games mechanics as a pair. Therefore intended

[knotty bobcat]

From what I've heard.

Foaming a ladder uses so little resources, for such a massive effect, it basically breaks the game and makes it easy.
I'm just gonna call it cheese cause that's what it feels like, and stay 2 yards away from anyone suggestion to do it if I struggle with a level.

Vaguely gesturing at everyone ''helping'' me with R2E1. ''It's easy if you just c-foam ladder''

[latent palm]

where slendi

[swift wyvern]

If there is another path they could takez they could be programmed to take different paths.. like they already do in other areas of the game

Like with doors

[rose nova]

idk

[latent palm]

what did u do to the funni mexican

[junior latch]

oversight =/= intended

:>

[swift wyvern]

It's not an oversight...

It's been in the game for years bro

[rose nova]

u know that cant be changed right if they got rid of that room

[junior latch]

DUDE

[rose nova]

they wouldve been FLAMMED

[junior latch]

you do not understand

[swift wyvern]

If they wanted to fix it by now they would have

[torn grove]

That's not justification

[swift wyvern]

And because they have not, that makes it intended

It's a trivial fix

[rose nova]

no if they wanted to fix it they wouldve get annihilated by the pros

[mint light]

did you learn anything?

[rose nova]

thats such an iconic room

[vestal crystal]

they fixed one way of door bugging but left the other way in the game, therefore its clearly intended to be able to door bug without cfoam and a legit way to play the game!

[junior latch]

you think the "fix" is for them to not path towards a ladder if another enemy is on it? GREAT now only 1 enemy will take ladder and the rest limbo between ladder and another part

since the ladder blocks other enemies from going up/down even without foam for a short moment

[junior latch]

KEK

[junior latch]

yes

man great that door bugging is appearantly now intended

[rose nova]

what do they do with that tile then? never use it again?

it has a ladder guys, we cant let community ladder foam

[swift wyvern]

Wdym limbo

Idgi

[rose nova]

lets never use it again

[swift wyvern]

Idk what this means

[junior latch]

if an enemy would change path because another enemy is on a ladder (blocking it) then theyd rechange again ... and again... and again

[swift wyvern]

Who are the pros and how would the devs get "annihilated" by them

[torn grove]

I don't think people realize that fixing anything like this isn't always so cut and dry for devs and how something small can completely break other things

[swift wyvern]

They literally don't do this already in other situations where enemies repath

[sharp siren]

Whats the conversation about

[rose nova]

idk if u know of a certain level where people ladder foam a lot, r2e1
one of the most funky tiles it has is a room which only entrance is a ladder
if they changed it, they wouldve recieved a lot of complains

[swift wyvern]

There are examples of game mechanic repathing where this doesn't happen

[vestal crystal]

someone saying ladder foam is intended mechanic and not cheese

[sharp siren]

Lmao

[wispy bluff]

Ladder foaming: yay or haram

[swift wyvern]

Idk why you created that limitation up in your head that enemies would do that and then agreed with yourself

[junior latch]

try opening/closing a door they are closer to very fast :>

[sharp siren]

They dis tried to patch it tho lma9

[junior latch]

theyll fucking spaz

[sharp siren]

After r5 since my stupid friend largest did

[latent palm]

Real Ryk

[junior latch]

man thinking ladder foam is an intended mechanic

LOL

[sharp siren]

They did something with collision

[junior latch]

R5C1 is designed with ladder foam in mind 🤡

[sharp siren]

In i dont know wich patch

[swift wyvern]

That's just the AI responding to a change in pathing?

Of course they'll spaz

[knotty bobcat]

Oh so it's intended and not cheese

[swift wyvern]

I fail to see how that's relevant

[sharp siren]

My man you bait us really good

[knotty bobcat]

Just spam the door open and close, keep them there forever, it's not cheese, it's intentional

[sharp siren]

That shit a 10/10 bait

[swift wyvern]

You wouldn't be able to continue the mission if you did that..

[last parrot]

other people

[swift wyvern]

It's not a viable strat lol

[knotty bobcat]

There's 4 fucking people in a group you twat

😂

[swift wyvern]

You have to scan further up eventually

[sharp siren]

Bo' a wa'a

[knotty bobcat]

At that point you've completed that section of the map and can move further up

.. and do the cheese again
🤡

[latent palm]

its not? (lol)

[swift wyvern]

Also that strat does technically violate my earlier definition of cheese where you abuse hardware limitation mechanics

So.. again not a viable comparison

At all

[knotty bobcat]

oh so like Cfoaming a ladder?

[rose nova]

run away with a pack of enemies and spawn cap em, is not cheese it is technically made so more enemies dont spawn

[torn grove]

I love arguments where the side that's clearly wrong and everyone is against doesn't actually consider anything said !!

[swift wyvern]

During a surge alarm I think it would constitute that, but obviously there's no good way to check for that

[torn grove]

Anyways, what's more preferable for R2E1 sentries? 2 bursts or 1 burst and 1 auto

[knotty bobcat]

Tbh if you can kite 25(?) enemies without dying, you deserve to ''cheese'' it that way.

[rose nova]

lmao

[knotty bobcat]

is the cap 25?
I forget

[mint light]

2 burst prolly

[junior latch]

dunno how well current auto works tbh

it might actually fully stop a brunt of a surge wave for some of them

[torn grove]

I figured

[swift wyvern]

We did foam + mines + burst on our completion

[knotty bobcat]

I went 2 bursts, 1 auto, and a bio tracker 💀
Got told I did it the hardest way after completing

[junior latch]

could try 1 burst 1 hel auto

[rose nova]

the one i tried got a shit ton of hitmarkers but got from 87 to 20 before buff so i have no idea

in a class II

[torn grove]

We've switched between 1 burst, 1 mine, 1 cfoam, 1 bio and 2 bursts instead of foam

[rose nova]

now it has 700 top or somethin but

[knotty bobcat]

From what I noticed.
It significantly slowed down the surge wave, to where it was a near complete halt (some 2-3 slipped in every now and again)

Until it ran out of ammo like a minute into the alarm

[rose nova]

still unsure

problem is just those things eat the tool so fast

[torn grove]

I think auto might be pretty helpful with the first surge after error. That's where we fail the most

[knotty bobcat]

100% to 0% in 1 minute is an impressive waste of ammunition

[rose nova]

i guess its just super super dependant on positionin

unlike burst where u can just aim at door or somethin

with that one u have to take how many enemies can it target and how to take advantage of the pen

[last parrot]

auto sentry dumps too fast

[silk blade]

A minute of fire is insane

Just one minute! For but a minute you too can watch 4 tool packs disappear

[last parrot]

auto pistol could be worth it though

[torn grove]

Aeons gave me a pretty good recommendation for sentry placement for first room. Could ask about 4th surge. I can think of 2 good placements where it'd help quite a bit

[knotty bobcat]

I mean
It let us do 1-3 scans right away and we got enough tool for every surge

[torn grove]

Placing reactively could help too

[knotty bobcat]

5*

[silk blade]

Simply wonderous

[vestal crystal]

biggest thing that can help with that surge is mining in a way that you get 2 doors

[torn grove]

True true

[silk blade]

Auto pistol is better for sure

[rose nova]

autopiss

[silk blade]

It does good at stagger, you can choose when to shoot it

[knotty bobcat]

R2E1 gave us enough tool to completely restock all 3 of our sentries, basically

[torn grove]

How would u do that?

[silk blade]

Also it still pierces so on a crowd it isn't a complete ammo waste

[mint light]

Save the 3 doors outside the room

[torn grove]

We've really only cared about the wide door leading into the room up until now

Idk y we never thought to go to the far side and save that door

[junior latch]

which alarm?

[torn grove]

First surge after error

[mint light]

well they spawn behind the other 2 smalls on the side so that's anextra mine to place and an extra wave to die

[torn grove]

Right right

[junior latch]

and you can even push their spawn out 1 further while pulling

[mint light]

So you blast 2 waves before they enter. you'll be done with the alarm

[mint light]

true

[junior latch]

its also how you fast setup

[torn grove]

Bio and mines can hold entrance while sentries set up for the surge

Then sentry people pull door while mines r being set up

[torn grove]

That's pretty much our biggest issue

I'll forward this to the team

[jade iron]

not to dogpile, but pathfinding is easy in a static weighted graph with one actor and with a simple optimization goal (minimize total distance or maximum cost of any individual edge traversed or whatever)
it starts to look less tractable when you add multiple actors, impose multiple criteria to optimize over, etc.

[mint light]

Keep one guy on the alarm door

He pulls when you playing last mine

[vestal crystal]

throw a fog repeller down for the mine deployer holding the error, then pull the door when he's ready

turbine can go in with cell/baby and drop stuff off

[torn grove]

We did do that last time

[untold ravine]

nah we just remove all ladders. or add more ladders? so many laddres you can't foam them all

[rose nova]

nom the ladder

[junior latch]

1 ladder to rule them all

[swift wyvern]

Luckily the AI in GTFO is limited to a ceiling of actors, and currently have very limited path choices

[sharp siren]

You shohld definetly replace ladders with gravity pads

[swift wyvern]

Also they don't constantly calculate new paths, if I remember the path code correctly. Game state triggers the path updates, not steps

[wispy bluff]

So is it approved or not, yes or no

[swift wyvern]

(Might be having a false memory for a different game though)

[untold ravine]

and ladders that move

[swift wyvern]

Make the player a ladder

[knotty bobcat]

Your take on checkpoints? 👁️

[swift wyvern]

And make it so I can seafoam myself

solved

[latent palm]

become based and DEPLOY A NEW TYPE OF ENEMIES THAT SERVES AS A AOE DENIAL

[knotty bobcat]

Become based and give us a new type of enemies, pls, i beg

[untold ravine]

Maybe an auto ||laddder|| sentry

[rose nova]

just add enemies that dont go down ladde- ahhhhh wait

[knotty bobcat]

A new type which is not a boss/mini-boss

[latent palm]

SENTRY EVERY WHERE!???!

[untold ravine]

it just shoots ladders

[pine root]

In our blind r6c1 we jumped in the hole at 60 and was just hoping that fall damage didn’t get a buff

[wispy bluff]

Alright fine ill best it again

...you sons...

[untold ravine]

Sorry, I'm just here to shitpost, my workday already ended

[latent palm]

back when i played no fall dmg

[pine root]

Boy you have double jump on 24/7

[knotty bobcat]

Love that you imply by this message that you can't give us an actual answer because it's outside work hours

[glacial shard]

Yeah, I am still glad for the help

[vestal crystal]

what did you learn?

[latent palm]

bro

i do not lol

this i deny

every other typo shit u can think yes

but double jump?

[untold ravine]

Thing is, I'm lazy right now, already at home, and I'd have to check some things internally before giving a proper answer, so I'd rather let calle bring it up tomorrow since he got pinged about it too 😄

[wispy bluff]

But what's your personal company unrelated opinion on it

[outer lantern]

GTFO should become woke

[untold ravine]

Can I interest you in a picture of my dog?

[rose nova]

i want a picture of ur cat

[wispy bluff]

Actually I got a better idea

[latent palm]

based

[mint light]

yeah but what 😅

[wispy bluff]

Where that shit

[outer lantern]

hello good sir dev

[wispy bluff]

#community-polls

[untold ravine]

hello marlowe

[outer lantern]

with r8 y’all should add a poker minigame

[wispy bluff]

Poll us in foam ladder situation

[outer lantern]

just consider it

[wispy bluff]

Coke on, do it

[rose nova]

cocaine on

[glacial shard]

resource conservation, swaping guns when empty and spaming reload

[untold ravine]

we already have a secret hidden minigame on a terminal.

[outer lantern]

oh shit

[glacial shard]

also how to look for the codes, but will need more terminal time

[untold ravine]

there's also the secret game in the training expedition

[pine root]

Which level

[glacial shard]

R2D2

longest run yet

[pine root]

What code?

[glacial shard]

the reactor codes

some are not free so need to look

[pine root]

Yeah like code 2 4 5 6 or 8

all the rest are free

[glacial shard]

isn't 5 free?

[pine root]

No

5 is donut room 6 is scout 7 is free and 8 is key hunt#2

[untold ravine]

mnhmmmm donuts

[mint light]

And fast stealth?

but good, learning is important

[glacial shard]

I can do it a bit but still got to learn

killed 3 sleepers in a chain

[mint light]

especially with R2E1 around the corner

[pine root]

Which code

Are you struggling with

[junior ridge]

How does one obtain a code to share for others to join in-game?

[glacial shard]

Codes hidden in terminals

[mint light]

well hammer will be ideal, that's kinda a thing

[pine root]

You are help less

Gl

[mint light]

he finished 🤦

[rose nova]

u click the mission u wanna do, 'Host lobby'
then at the very right side theres a button that says 'Copy lobby code' or somethin among those lines

u click it

and u can paste it

in a chat or somethin

[glacial shard]

[rose nova]

:]

[junior ridge]

Oh-- weird.. I don't see that..

[pine root]

The why does he need to work on terminal time

[junior ridge]

I'll look again.

[vestal crystal]

#gtfo-media message

[sharp siren]

Go to settings

[rose nova]

put the cursor to the right of ur screen

[pine root]

Literally if you pass the check you pass the check

[rose nova]

it moves

[visual lily]

[sharp siren]

Go to settings

Bottom left

[junior ridge]

I see that...

[vestal crystal]

for 6th code he hopped on the terminal then asked me if i got the code....

[sharp siren]

Youll have the loby code to give

[junior ridge]

it pans with the cursor.. I forgot that was a thing..

[pine root]

XD

rYk

is he ready for r2e1

[sharp siren]

He lucky i wasnt the burst canon user in that r2d2

[vestal crystal]

💀

ngl i thought about it

[sharp siren]

Knaw i mean

[vestal crystal]

shieeeeeet

[vestal crystal]

he's not, but im ready to read #gtfo-chat after he tries a couple times

[wispy bluff]

Aside from that did it went smoothly or

[vestal crystal]

yeah it was a normal run

[mint light]

because carried, so he knows he need to work on stuff

[vestal crystal]

i dont think he knows how to read logs

nor did he ask how

[burnt flume]

I love going to my app data folder

[pine root]

Trueeeee

[ionic pollen]

I believe in you fellow complex dweller! Getting it finally done was probably the biggest kick I've ever gotten from gaming

Funny thing was that we got the bug where the cell and turbine spawn into different zones in that run, not to mention waking up a scout right after the critical surge

Made it even sweeter that it wasn't like a textbook perfect run

Weirdly starting to feel like playing it again now 😮

[pine root]

You have more e tiers to do

R4 be waiting for you

[torn grove]

We usually wake up 1-2 scouts from rushing the early part of the mission LOL

[thin dawn]

i would need all the tips in the world to finish r2e1

[pine root]

Ladder foam is pretty good

[visual lily]

you guys have a full team ?

[wispy bluff]

There are no tips.
Get a carry.

[torn grove]

We woke up 3 when I was playing with Dak, lurker, and gerz

[thin dawn]

...sometimes?

[torn grove]

Died on first error surge tho

[visual lily]

so you dont play with a fixed set of people

[pine root]

And you didn’t clear?

[sharp siren]

shoot

[thin dawn]

3 of us are dedicated, we have a couple 4ths who dont play too much

[sharp siren]

shoot a lot

[thin dawn]

real

[sharp siren]

might seem like a joke

but its truth

[visual lily]

need help let me know

[pine root]

What are you struggling with

Which part

[thin dawn]

the final error alarm stacked with all the surge alarms

carrying all the cells and neonate and turbine

moving so slow

[pine root]

1st auger in error or second

[torn grove]

U just gotta drop and clear before moving forward

[sharp siren]

Most likely fog pit surge

[pine root]

So are you carrying the two cells or one

[pine root]

Yeah most likely

[thin dawn]

yeah i figured they just catch up so quick and my team doesnt speed clear besides me

one cell

[pine root]

Okay that is good

[thin dawn]

we havent tried in a while either

[pine root]

So what you want to do

Is pull those rooms and slow push keep the fog repellers from the start and use them here

You should get like 6 uses of fogs and this is where you want to burn them

[thin dawn]

i think we tried pulling, we just got sandwiched

[pine root]

Sentry on the door and mine it if you want to can do some odd spwn blocking strategies

[pine root]

You shouldn’t be getting sandwiched

You probs are clearing really slow

[thin dawn]

yeahhh

we need to grab more repellers

[pine root]

There is only 3 repellers at the start of the map

Max 12 uses min 9 uses

They are literally gold in the level

[thin dawn]

😭

[ionic pollen]

Yas, and i it! We just did r4d2 so it's actually gonna be our next group effort

[pine root]

Gl do secondary in the same blind attempt

[thin dawn]

i think whats so discouraging is the no checkpoints. after one run my group just gets absolutely discouraged from trying again

i mean, i want to keep trying

[visual lily]

welcome to OG gtfo

[ionic pollen]

Sadly though we opened the last door before doing overload so have to get back to that one for the PE collection

[thin dawn]

yeahh i know

been here since r3, watched since launch

[sharp siren]

gotta strategize

keep pushing

funnily enough GTFO rewards more messy and steady gameplay

be messy

[thin dawn]

is r2e1 one of those levels where you need that quad variety?

tools i mean

bio cfoam sentry mine

iirc theres a use for all of them

[sharp siren]

I mean "classic" tool setup its really good value in all levels

[wispy bluff]

Mine was pretty worthless

[sharp siren]

but if you want to optimize you can bring an extra sentry

[ionic pollen]

Yeah I'd say two sentries, foam and bio

[sharp siren]

instead of foam

[shut vapor]

Aren't there a couple blood doors in r2e1

[thin dawn]

yeah

[ionic pollen]

We even tried double foam at some point 😂

[sharp siren]

3 total

you go trough 2

[shut vapor]

Foam doesn't seem worth it against surge alarms unless the door you are foaming is right next to you

Or ladder

[ionic pollen]

For the ladder it's gold

[thin dawn]

wouldnt mines be super helpful in the end sequence

[sharp siren]

it is worth it

[sharp siren]

if your struglling with speed

[ionic pollen]

Mines not so much really

[vestal crystal]

they can be good if you know how to use them

[sharp siren]

then its not worth it
