R2E1 is like 1h 30min usually if you play it normal paced
A bit more fast paced and you go down to 1h
I remember 3h+ runs on the original one back in the days when we used to play the shotgun sentry in front of every giant shadow

you should not have a sniper on your team for scouts either so you fine there

to learn like where their heads r n how they move

i have no practice with shadows, so i have yet to find out
rose nova
yeh yet to fuck around :3
wispy bluff
Are we talking normal shadows? Just small guys?
Hammer is the winner against them. Because 20 dmg swing.
Everyone else got to aim for headshots, and... Yeah.
burnt flume
after enough practice it's easy enough to hit their heads
rose nova
yes
wispy bluff
Its not super problematic, but just another one to the list of why shadows are the worst enemy in the game
rose nova
what
hows that even???
idk
ah yeah with knife u need to aim at the heads of the enemy, 0/10
wispy bluff
Also with recent spead buff you should be able to deal 2.5 damage with a headshot. Key word: should
So you can full stab and then quick stab to the head and that should be enough
But dont know for certain, needs testing
rough robin
On spear? Yes
burnt flume
yes it can
sharp owl
30 damage
burnt flume
but you need to get the right angle

how finicky is it

which I haven't managed to do when the enemy is awake, but I haven't tried very much/played very hard

Hammer: (3 base) x (1 prec) x (5 head) x (2 flank) = 3 x 10 = 30 = instant shooter kill.

earnest forge
I honestly do not think they would create like 3 or 4 E-tier expeditions, but if they ever do, oh boy I am game :)
rough robin
would love that
earnest forge
Just 2 or an Overload sector on E tier from their level designers behind the latest expeditions would be awesome
wraith marsh
idk, I just hope they go crazy with it
we either wouldnt complain or would complain either way so
sharp owl
an r8f1 level where it's just lots of lore
earnest forge
4 zones back to back, only terminals ; make all veterans rage about it
rough robin
give me some lore dump door scans baby
rough robin
you open an apex door and a projector turns on
earnest forge
Movie level
That could be cool, in all honesty
sharp owl
make it a map without a goal
and a central chamber with one terminal on a big ass server
with all the logs available
earnest forge
Like a fully ending cinematic
wraith marsh
have to stealth through 20 pmoms while schaeffer "wakes up" another kso
earnest forge
That you can only access by completing ALL of the expeditions
earnest forge
I would love it
rough robin
have to stealth through 20 pmoms while schaeffer "wakes up" another kso
only if I get to hear another iconic maddox slapfest
wraith marsh
dialogue volume settings are set to max no matter what while in a zone event
I love r8 features
rough robin
in alt? no
rough robin
kind of annoyed they cut it
livid gulch
R8 will feature shadow tank as final boss
rough robin
turret section
sharp owl
or many a damn armory
earnest forge
Objective Stack :
- Find the BFG
- Put the BFG into position
- Fire
- Extract
rough robin
depends if it's alt or not
at the end of r7 schaeffer/henrikson control wrdn / it's objectives it gives us
earnest forge
Based on Lore, hopefully we can make it to a Nam-V free membrane and live off whatever life we can
rough robin
not that it will even really be relevant really? As long as wrdn isn't forcing us to go to certain places, we can go wherever schaeffer/henrikson need
sharp owl
like the goal is to escape
but if we do that
go outside, touch some grass, realize everything is dead, commit sepoku
rough robin
is this where I bring up my insane theory that the entire 'outside world is dead' is bullshit
sharp owl
maybe we escape in like c2 or something and then go back in because fuck it
earnest forge
You do not want to escape from the Complex in our OG dimension, or even Alt:// they are both f***ed
earnest forge
At this point the scenario feels very close to the S.O.M.A one (which I wholeheartedly recommend)
sharp owl
the ending is gonna be whacko no matter what happens i think
rough robin
im holding out hope my theory is right because it would be a very insane twist
sharp owl
unless the warden is straight up fabricating logs to tell us the outside is wrecked
rough robin
thats what im thinking
rough robin
why does a random maintenance terminal have a log from some State of Truth podcast?
sharp owl
that's a good point
rough robin
or a WHO report on the virus?
golden totem
Yeah it's somewhat doubtful the whole world is ended
rough robin
schaeffer and the 4 of us are operating only off of THIS info and what the thing in R6D1 tells him
and that thing could be lying completely
sharp owl
very unsatisfying possibility though
golden totem
More that the world WILL end eventually if we don't solve the Nam-V problem
sharp owl
this is kinda like the "it was all a dream" thing
rough robin
very unsatisfying possibility though
I think it would be similar to Dying Light : the following's ending
we get teleported / break out to the surface and regular civilization just sees four blood-soaked, bug-eyed operatives
rough robin
bonus points if our outfits are coated in NAM-V and we actually bring it to the surface
sharp owl
that would be so bad
junior latch
bonus points if our outfits are coated in NAM-V and we actually bring it to the ...
oh damn that would be evil
earnest forge
Congratulations, you just spread the virus
sharp owl
you damn well know the devs are willing to do that if they want to though
earnest forge
That would be quite evil indeed
sharp owl
everything has been so bleak so far
rough robin
it would go so hard if the four teleported out and just. ended up on like a random street in new york or somewhere
earnest forge
I get it though, make us want to fight for survival, to save whatever remains of the human race, only to condemn it. Dark, but a nice idea
rough robin
four operatives with guns, bugging the fuck out because they're seeing civilization for the first time in forever, as passerbys just silently stare
earnest forge
It would make for a nice cinematic ending indeed
sharp owl
my problem with this is that it's not satisfying, it throws so many logs in the trash
so much theorizing n stuff
it's a twist but it sacrifices a lot of pre established things about the world
earnest forge
The whole "it was all for nothing' trope is kind of overrated
rough robin
true but I don't see many satisfying endings for GTFO with the way they've taken the story
rough robin
The whole "it was all for nothing' trope is kind of overrated
I mean it wouldn't have been for nothing, our 4 were genuinely trapped in garganta
sharp owl
garganta keeps them alive
earnest forge
I would love to see a really dark one ; we survive, but only we 4 do. Everyone else is just dead, and we will be in a few decades.
earnest forge
rough robin
little HSU tubby time will fix that
untold ravine
4 zones back to back, only terminals ; make all veterans rage about it
20 zones, all terminals, need to do terminal uplink with 4 people entering codes at the same time. need to find the right terminal, and only one terminal actually has the query and ping commands on it. and immortal tanks spawning every 5 minutes
sharp owl
maybe like woods stays outside and succumbs to the infection
Dauda is scared of death and goes back in
Hackett doesn't have any personality, so he also goes back in to continue being a prisoner, it's all he knows
Bishop dedicates himself to finding out where davies died, so he can piss on his grave
rough robin
we actually escape in R8A1 and the entire rest of the 'rundown' is the gang chasing down Janson Davies because bishop wanted to
earnest forge
20 zones, all terminals, need to do terminal uplink with 4 people entering codes...
Only to get more lore logs, I see. Thank you D0c but I will pass
untold ravine
what you don't want an E+ level?
sharp owl
we want the f tier meme
because deeper = harder = better
that's how game design works
earnest forge
F would be enough for it. You just type "F" in the chat and exit
sharp owl
i actually want more intercepted transmittions, those things are awesome
it's a shame we get 3 lines
livid gulch
will R8 feature shadow tank as final boss
sharp owl
but seriously though
untold ravine
no, shadow kraken
sharp owl
deepest expedition is 1411m
There is a log that mentions that some parts have been drilled to 4000m (!!) and they were fighting down there too
earnest forge
spawning shadow flyers
untold ravine
with shadow bullets
rough robin
r8 needs a level where you get to incinerate the immortal in a giant McFuckOven that garganta has for some reason, and the next zone has like 15 of them sleeping.
earnest forge
r8 needs a level where you get to incinerate the immortal in a giant McFuckOven ...
That could be fun. I honestly thought that was what happened in R7E1. You try to get rid of it by bringing it to another dimension, but it comes back. Then the reactor overloads and you get rid of it this way
rough robin
That could be fun. I honestly thought that was what happened in R7E1. You try to...
it looks like a giant cobweb, you just KNOW that mf burns easily
sharp owl
it's basically futuristic armor piercing bullets
rough robin
i find it weird that it's immortal
I assume it relates to how the immortal doesn't show up on biotracker for longer than half a second
it's such an evolved form of parasite that it's host is basically dead
earnest forge

use the alien incinerator laser to destroy it
rough robin
if we don't get to incinerate it I will be upset
silk blade
i find it weird that it's immortal
it just has 1 billion hp
sharp owl
but can you damage it
sharp owl
how
earnest forge
You do, actually, but so slowly that it is insignificant
rough robin
there was a bug back in r3 where after the matter wave collapse it wouldn't disappear, just be left on 1hp
so you could kill it then
sharp owl
doesn't it lack uh tumours or something
rough robin
armored hits technically do damage, but basically nothing
earnest forge
They could also have made it so that it would regenerate damage very quickly, but they went for the insane HP base or armor
rough robin
to be honest you wouldn't even need to really kill it
look at those chicken legs
easy to disable
earnest forge
Push it down the elevator
sharp owl
yeah exactly
silk blade
just lock it behind security doors
sharp owl
it's still like using a human frame
we killed a kraken
just shove it and make it fall over
can't get up without arms
top heavy
silk blade
kinda true
rough robin
it'd be like a turtle on its back
earnest forge
The kraken was kind enough to expose its ballsacks to us
silk blade
put some soap on the floor and it slip n slide

gtfo level where you splash a disenfection pack on the ground and lead the immortal over it
rough robin
it just melts

start using disinfection machine like a flamethrower
sharp owl
flamethrower but with disinfection
earnest forge
Spray disinfect on it ; sound great :D
sharp owl
YES
livid gulch
R8E1 leaked
earnest forge
As long as we can keep the sound of the Disinfect Station, I want it
sharp owl
personally i would have made tanks quadrupeds
dunno why such a massively evolved and powerful infected has to use 2 legs
go the mother route and do 4 legs
faster and more stable
if all 4 prisoners shove a tank it just tips over and that's that
sharp owl
You only run 75% I heard
blissful dome
yea
livid gulch
increased multiplier on Crits and you can run
blissful dome
slightly increased walking speed
is it just me or does it kill to the head faster
spear unga bunga time

4 scouts and a charger scout

4 scouts and a charger scout

hacket just
fucking tagged everything BUT the charger scout
i dont think the charger scout likes me
its just going around the bottom of the stairs

good for you?
probably better to focus on your game instead of chronicling it in a chat where 80% of people have already played the level
glacial shard
hi
wispy bluff
Uh, rude. Let the guy went his little frustrations.
Honestly that room is not that bad. Just patience. Kill all the normal scouts and then you can just scattergun the charger one.
wispy bluff
The man is getting psyoped by scout room in CX
sharp siren
What my dude trigger a scout?
wispy bluff
No, he's literally just getting tilted by the very presence of them.
sharp owl
i think i'm underperforming due to anger
i just cannot for the life of me shoot well enough no matter the gun
wispy bluff
That means you're a human
blissful dome
Uh, rude. Let the guy went his little frustrations.
Honestly that room is not th...
yea i know but none of the normal scouts would go near me
fun
anyways
cleared the room
proceeded to take more damage opening a box for a flashlight
whoops
i probably should have cleared the giants before the charger but

That means you're a human
then how do other humans do it

and thats it. Getting the sub 10 pace is not that hard surviving is
burnt flume
i think i'm underperforming due to anger
it's important to be reasonable with your expectations, you can hurt your improvement by being too hard on yourself/having a bad mindset about how you're playing
junior latch
and thats it. Getting the sub 10 pace is not that hard surviving is
its gonna be interesting to figure out the low end of times
late karma
its gonna be interesting to figure out the low end of times
like 9:30 or something i don´t think we will see a sub 9
junior latch
you can calculate it
burnt flume
i can't just "shoot better"
it's weird, you can definitely shoot better but thinking about aiming or improving your aim won't really do anything, it's more about grinding and practice than thought
late karma
you can calculate it
yes i know
time from spawn to scan
- time to do scan
+time for apex door till teleport
junior latch
run up
alarm movement + scan time
run to tp and tp
terminal start
then each boss phase has a timer (start + 4 times tumor break) which you can theoretically do in minimal time of like +1 second if every sniper insta shoots
then run back and extract scan
earnest forge
Sounds like a fun run, albeit quite an intense one
late karma
Sounds like a fun run, albeit quite an intense one
i mean you just have to survive the class 6. Kraken isn´t that difficult
earnest forge
Will definitely watch if you guys post a video of it :)
late karma
just eat medipacks
earnest forge
I know, but sub 10 still sounds very good
junior latch
class 6 is 100% hardest part
kraken is a risk taking thing
especially with aim punch
and where tumors will spawn
pine root
class 6 is 100% hardest part
I think there is some play to bring c foam make class 6 easier
Or even double bio
late karma
kraken is a risk taking thing
kinda depends if you find medis and just eat them you don´t need to worry that much about floaters
late karma
I think there is some play to bring c foam make class 6 easier
foam not really
junior latch
if you just eat medi immediatly you will tick down too much
pine root
foam not really
Foam hallway gives free double lower scan
junior latch
the issue isnt bio pings
late karma
1 or 2 HEL shotguns can make the class 6 easier
late karma
its shooters and hybrids
true
junior latch
its also why no hel shotty
like yes we get hit by strikers
but shooters man
fuck them
late karma
you can snipe hybrids and shoters on ping
thats what we did
Hel shotgun was very usefull even in kraken fight it didn´t fall of that much
junior latch
shooters i do for the last one
hybrids arent the issue when you can see them coming and have a clean shot
but when they shoot from far way, off angles or with other enemies
earnest forge
Same on R5E1 first surge alarm
late karma
I mean thats just Hybrids in generall
earnest forge
15 Hp, whole wave coming at you and a couple Hybrids in the mix ; deadly
late karma
one of the most dangerous enemys during alarms
late karma
15 Hp, whole wave coming at you and a couple Hybrids in the mix ; deadly
you have more than 15hp up to like scan 5/6
earnest forge
True, but the visibility is much worse
It was a fun run in OG ; it still is in the current version

i can't just "shoot better"
There's loads of free aim trainers around, and, IMHO, unless you want to become Shiv, those are fine to "get better". Like with the gym, you see some improvements very fast and then it slows down and becomes a matter of being costant.
pine root
i just don't know how to improve further
There is always things to get slightly better at
It just becomes about changing what you are using to measure

R6CX confiremd not doable with bots
They are too fucking stupid for it
they lag behind by 150 meters of walking
they just cannot comprehend verticality

you gon have to remove n re add them

then they free up after that

because then we cant defend without them

re add them

its been 2 minutes
me and the other guy are down

Unfortunately couldn't salvage that one
I found at least 2 missed medkits
i'm assuming there are more left behind
can't confirm with a terminal because the thing glitched and acting like of the resources are still on the level, i can even ping it - but ping just shows me an empty locker
