[blissful dome]

interesting

also mb

i think they were i saw like dauda take 2 damage and then heal and continue running

[sharp owl]

ikr

like damn

it's so much more immersive without out of game comms

[blissful dome]

its not that immersive without sound at all :[

[sharp owl]

yeah i just mean like

[wraith marsh]

banter and complaining go hard tho

[sharp owl]

no poopy jokes in comms

[blissful dome]

no like im playing muted

💀

[sharp owl]

why

[blissful dome]

uh

someones asleep

my headphones are probably somewhere

[rose nova]

now ik 3 deafen players but u do it by choice

[blissful dome]

i dont

its just

for now

i usually play with sound

please

trust me

im sane

[rose nova]

no :3

[sharp owl]

they should add subtitles for accessibility

like in team fortress 2

[wispy bluff]

On one side: yes

[sharp owl]

[Sleeper Clicks]

etc

[pine root]

(Sleeper noises)

[wispy bluff]

On another: there's 12.000 of them

[blissful dome]

me when there was a giant behind the stairs and

[wispy bluff]

Also it does explain why he kept going for the kill while another sleeper is glowing

[blissful dome]

oops

[blissful dome]

mbmb

[rose nova]

theres rooms with 70 sleepers, and u have to calibrate when does the noise appear on screen and when it doesnt and when u know which enemy it is or somethin

[blissful dome]

im also blind

[wispy bluff]

Got a whiff of how the other dragon guy plays

What was his name...

SleeperKing or something

I can't remember

[blissful dome]

what about it

[wispy bluff]

There is a guy here who's deaf

He beat most of the game by himself with bots, somehow

Actually insane

[blissful dome]

goddam

[rose nova]

wyvern, and i knew another player that was partially deaf, gothy

wyvernking

[blissful dome]

anyways

deafened scout clearing was fun

[rose nova]

very scary i suppose

[blissful dome]

m

yea

honestly without the sound

the giant leaping off the ladder just looks ridiculous

[rose nova]

i mean with sound or not looks funky tbh sdkmkm

is scary seein it fall in front of u

or appearin in top of u by jumpin

but seein the whole animation is weird

[wispy bluff]

Also learned a new good reason why you should do terminals backwards

[blissful dome]

lmao

ah

[wispy bluff]

If you do the first one off the bat - you get caught midway by an army of sleepers

2nd terminal was fucking SWARMED

[blissful dome]

i should not have brought scatter

[wispy bluff]

Something about the pathing of this level causes sleepers to go insane

They are like 5 minutes too late

So anyway now that you've seen the finale

Basically there's 3 terminals in there that need some uplinkin'

Always prefixed positions

[blissful dome]

interesting first experience of cx

i hate it

as usual

[wispy bluff]

Save the first one, do other 2 and then rush back down

That 1st one against the wall is stupid easy to defend

The key is to survive that long

There's resources everywhere, so actually bringing some lock melters is a great idea

[blissful dome]

ight

wait after

is it a silent scan or

[wispy bluff]

If you survive the Staircase of Hell - that's it, you've won. No more scans, alarms and not even enemies i believe.

[blissful dome]

ight

[wispy bluff]

You get warped back like 20 seconds after finishing the last uplink

[blissful dome]

also i really think scatter is a great choice for flyers

idk

[wispy bluff]

eh

if they get close

[blissful dome]

no its

its SO good

amazing

[wispy bluff]

That part of the level is all about mid range fighting

[blissful dome]

i shot at one two feet away

it entirely missed

amazing

[wispy bluff]

High Cal, HAR, Precision Rifle shine here

Except for 2nd terminal, that one is kinda fucked

So its good to have 1 guy with close range guns

not a scatter though

[blissful dome]

hmmm

nooooo

scatter sawed off

[sharp owl]

alright i just made a death compilation of me eating dirt

so you can see what i am doing

[blissful dome]

lets go

its probably better than whatever im doing

[sharp owl]

will upload soon in media, just compressing it so it's not 300 terabytes because editing software likes doing that

[wispy bluff]

me sitting on 400 GBs of elden ring footage...

I'm starting to realise why people never play these games and just stream them

[blissful dome]

lmao

oh you know what is a great clip

ok

#gtfo-media message

[sharp owl]

i don't get it

[blissful dome]

its a bunch of shadows

they cant hit you from there

[wispy bluff]

Goddamn, the game looks great on a good PC

[blissful dome]

also pristine loadout

[wispy bluff]

Me playing fucking Half-Life 2 Extra here

[blissful dome]

rip

got those ps2 polygons

[sharp owl]

oh ffs its still too big

[blissful dome]

rip

[sharp owl]

need to upload to youtube

[blissful dome]

lower it to 320 p

280 p

[sharp owl]

no

[blissful dome]

10 p

[sharp owl]

i'll just upload it to youtube

[blissful dome]

ight

[sharp owl]

and post it tomorrow

[blissful dome]

that works

[sharp owl]

why is everything so slow when i need it

my pc is running at like 10% of it's normal speed and so is my internet

[blissful dome]

It has to be “NUH UH” to work

[blissful dome]

NUH UH

[latent palm]

[knotty fiber]

how do checkpoint works

[grim leaf]

if u die, u go back to it

[blissful dome]

ight

mb

[fickle aspen]

Are there any region-based LFG channels? 👀

[rose nova]

yes, u can activate em in id:customize

u can also pick ur pronouns n fav melee there !

[fickle aspen]

there's a favorite melee?

Completely new to the game AHA SORRY

[rose nova]

kmdkmk its oki
well um roles yeah u can pick what ur fav melee is

if ur askin like whats the community fav

hammer ksmdk

[fickle aspen]

Is one or the other better for tasks? I was reading up on the basics and Hammer seems to be brought up a lot but what's the use for other melees then? :0c

[rose nova]

um knife is super super fast, very nice for combat n stamina save, but its high skill ceilin since it needs headshots and kinda more experience not gettin licked by enemies

spear is big damage, slow, u dont run full speed while chargin it, and it does need headshots too for max dmg, but is nice n powerful for big people

bat is goblin, is fast, requires headshots too but every hit is a stagger for smol enemies, and its a nice coop weapon; it also does weird things like breakin locks with one click and staggerin bigs with a full charge

[fickle aspen]

ooo
thank you! Hopefully first session ain't too bad 🥴

[rose nova]

good luck !

[livid gulch]

some people suffer from skill issue and that is fine

[rose nova]

just shoot awoken :3

or not

depends

[rose nova]

so me

[latent palm]

real bat enjoyer

AYO @true pilot

Welcome your new cult member

[grim leaf]

gg thx for helping me XD was i a good turret? lol

[latent palm]

[fickle aspen]

I haven't even started Ima just hope it works for how I play 🤣

[grim leaf]

arbalist did good i think

[latent palm]

i can help

if u want advice or advance

[fickle aspen]

I'm starting the first game much later than now sadly 😔
but thank you! 👀

[latent palm]

aight

[blissful dome]

sorry for clowning

mb

[latent palm]

ping me whenever you play Pim

ask @junior latch

lol

i didnt think youd fall for that

as a "JOKE"

[merry sluice]

Warp ;p nice job

[latent palm]

yeah

[latent palm]

hmm?

[merry sluice]

I was surprised that he @ eva also made me laugh

[latent palm]

kek

[merry sluice]

Just gave me a giggle

[latent palm]

now eva will wake up due to 2 pings

oh how much trouble will i be

lel

[merry sluice]

CX is a great level though wont lie

[grim leaf]

im down to help :o i can shooty shooty bang bang

[blissful dome]

m

let me get the code

[rough robin]

god's most trustworthy random link

[glacial shard]

ah yes, 50 Russian dollars

[regal mauve]

you gotta trust it. it got sent to every chat afterall

[rare stone]

lol

[rough robin]

that means it's extra trustworthy

[glacial shard]

can moderators take care of this guy?

[rare stone]

mods

[glacial shard]

some poor soul will actually click

[rare stone]

crush his skull

[regal mauve]

mods, can we ban this guy

[glacial shard]

hmm I noticed I take significantly longer with bots

[earnest forge]

Well, you do have to babysit them

[glacial shard]

R5A1 Floodways took an hour and half with bots

[mint light]

That's typical bot gameplay

You're the only one pushing stuff forward so it takes longer

[glacial shard]

did go for secondary

[mint light]

Ofc main only does not exist

[glacial shard]

first run around I only did main

[mint light]

You can, I just want my numbers to align

If someone wants main only, I don't play or quit on extract scan before it's done

[glacial shard]

[livid gulch]

DM for no response back

[junior latch]

Wait…
3 hours @rustic hinge woa

[rustic hinge]

yeah it took us a while lmao

we spent a good bit of time planning and searching the whole map for resources after main before we grabbed cargo

[latent palm]

HOLY shit bro

honestly

[rustic hinge]

i have no idea how we pulled it off it was so close

[latent palm]

idk how yall pulled through mentally

[rustic hinge]

it honestly wasnt too stressful until we got to planning the run from overload to extract

we used almost every bullet we had

[earnest forge]

As many of us did on our first completion of this expedition

Ahh, the memories...

[rustic hinge]

This rundown has had some of the most tense endings so far for our group

[junior latch]

R4E1

[sharp siren]

R4e1 waiting

[rustic hinge]

Cant wait tbh

[sharp siren]

Hope you like shootinf

[rustic hinge]

Definitely wont be getting past that level first session

[sharp siren]

Very few did

But who even gives a shit

As long as you have a good time with friends

[rustic hinge]

Exactly

[mint light]

would be huge !! enjoy the drop 😏

[ionic pollen]

Can confirm, r4e1 = fun times

[latent palm]

u cleared this?

what a Real Cho move

fr fr

[topaz ridge]

hooooo

thats r3a1 done

[rustic hinge]

nice

[sharp owl]

why not r1a3

[topaz ridge]

too easy

too many sleepers and i have a knife

[little ridge]

solo I assume, gj

[glacial shard]

lost R4A3 on overloard last gate

[rustic hinge]

quite unfortunate

[little ridge]

like in r4a2 overload, they can spawn inside

[topaz ridge]

knife is pretty good for me bc its speedy charge up is really nice

useful when clearing out a room

[little ridge]

So if you've someone with a sniper rifle just tell him to get in and snipe, it works unless scout is in the last room

[glacial shard]

also the two mines we had planted killed 3 whole sleepers

[topaz ridge]

hehe i put mines under the big sleeper

sleeper go boom :)

ive mostly been replaying the 2nd and 3rd rundown to get all the artifacts

im running low

[sharp owl]

lotsa smackers

[mint light]

Farming artefacts is kinda a waste of time tbh.

[mint light]

Sometimes they just... don't want to

[normal lake]

clearly the artifacts they spent several hours grinding will give them the tiny edge they need to beat the level and definitly will not be wasted by a failure to a stupid mistake that came with overconfidence because of boosters

[mint light]

👌worded perfectly

In all seriousness tho. If a player relies on artefacts for the clear then yes the player is not ready for the level and certainly not for the next ones

[normal lake]

yeah that is 100% the case

the whole point of boosters is to horde the best ones for "when you need them later"

and never use them

[latent palm]

@earnest forge how did u get my shlorp emoji?

[mint light]

Dunno I never used a single booster, so I still got some of those weird OG R5 ones

[normal lake]

i sometimes use the spicy ones for meme runs but rarely ever use them to actually make a level easier

[tender path]

anyone willing to handhold me my first time playing gtfo

[surreal plaza]

How am I supposed to use one of those “enemies further than 20m” boosters

[tender path]

i have zero idea about this game aside it being horror - shooter fps game

[surreal plaza]

or <5 for that matter

[tender path]

[mint light]

That's the neat point you don't need to use any

[mint light]

#lfg-beginners

Might find some people there

[surreal plaza]

Yeah I just dump all of my adroit boosters when I need to make room

[tender path]

thanksies

[normal lake]

I would but I dislike pubs kek

[mint light]

rude

[normal lake]

honestly the >20 meters one might aswell never proc but the <5 can be pretty good for close range combat

i dont really understand how they work tho

[topaz ridge]

uh hello?

bioscan speed??

[mint light]

Yeah. don't need it

[topaz ridge]

i do lol

slow scans are a waste of time

and ammo

[surreal plaza]

24% bioscan

[sharp owl]

one person having a faster scan isn't too much of a buff

when you have 4

[mint light]

Farming them is a bigger waste of time like bruh ......

[topaz ridge]

it is if its solo

[sharp owl]

ah another soloist

hello brother

[mint light]

Cfoam

[topaz ridge]

helloo

[normal lake]

but you dont need it since the levels are never that bad

[mint light]

another player never finishing the game

[topaz ridge]

clearly youve never beaten r6d1

[mint light]

I have more than 12 times and never needed one

[surreal plaza]

[mint light]

Like what's the point

[topaz ridge]

facepalm

[surreal plaza]

vine boom

[normal lake]

huh i dont even remember r6d1 having long scans lmfao

[topaz ridge]

ah fuck im just gonna get my bioscan upgrades and not talk to u

[mint light]

It doesn't have very long ones

[surreal plaza]

stack 3 bioscan artifacts and hustle up

[mint light]

Like meaby R5C1 scans can count as long??? but even there ...

[normal lake]

you are just better off developing a better strategy and improving at the game then ever farming boosters

[mint light]

Point is: no level needs boosters to complete. farming them is a waste of time

[topaz ridge]

i have nothing else to do except farm artifacts now...

[coarse grail]

I'm trying to get a full screen of muted bioscan boosters

[mint light]

Use whatever you find by playing if you want, it's in the game socwhy not. but actively farming......

[coarse grail]

I've got like 7 in arow

[mint light]

There is certainly a level you haven't done yet .

[topaz ridge]

does it matter to farm artifacts if ive already beaten the game twice?

[mint light]

go beat that way more fun. new stuff to see

[normal lake]

i just dropped 5 the other day

[burnt flume]

depends on the kind of scan

[mint light]

That would be even weirder then

[topaz ridge]

worth it tho :)

[burnt flume]

any bioscan speed booster makes a big difference unless you're talking about like, small red scans

[mint light]

But in the end: you do you

[mint light]

Nope, waste of good time

[topaz ridge]

mostly extract scans and security m alarms

those are the big ones

[normal lake]

only boosters i ever use are melee and projectile resist or funny boosters like glowstick power

[topaz ridge]

mine power is funny

[burnt flume]

depends on what extract alarm it is

[coarse grail]

R4C3 💀

[burnt flume]

but yeah, makes a big difference for s1 scans and surges

[normal lake]

waste of time if you askme

[topaz ridge]

purple boundary alarms take a really long time

[surreal plaza]

charjars

[topaz ridge]

worth the effort tho
more practice for me

[burnt flume]

r4c3 isn't too bad

[normal lake]

gonna spend a hour or two farming bioscan boosters to save 30 seconds to a minute scanning on a level max

nah

id just rather play the level

[mint light]

And you haven't beaten the game solo

[burnt flume]

that's the mindset to have

[coarse grail]

R4C3 has the most dangerous extraction scan in the game imo

[mint light]

That would be a straight up lie

[burnt flume]

ah yeah r4c3 extract is funny as shit

[topaz ridge]

bitch ive gotten 4 PEs

talk less, game more

[burnt flume]

scans taking longer isn't too bad anyway

[normal lake]

This concludes this conversation

[coarse grail]

Dj he said he beat the game twice

[normal lake]

back to valheim

[burnt flume]

oh no, you have to shoot for 15 more seconds which makes you better at the game

[coarse grail]

so 2 clears every level

[crimson oriole]

waw

[surreal plaza]

incredible exchange of nuh uhs and yuh uhs

[topaz ridge]

just bc of my boosts lol

[mint light]

My man, you too good

[mint light]

Not solo. is what I am saying

[coarse grail]

Yeah thats unlikely

[normal lake]

"unlikely" doesnt even begin to describe it

[mint light]

Is that game still alive?

damn

[coarse grail]

Hey you never know, don't want to underestimate people

[mint light]

Straight up impossible

[coarse grail]

I've not seen him play, he might be the next Hinoki

[surreal plaza]

I only wanna play the r6 levels with my buddy who doesn’t get to game often so we can share the “WTF is that” feeling together instead of him coming back to me handholding him through the levels like I did other rundowns

[mint light]

Like at some point gotta stop Huffing other peoples copium

[normal lake]

doing a modded run with a friend since its been about a year since we last played

[surreal plaza]

So far we’re in c tier

[normal lake]

yeah and im the next coming of christ

[mint light]

Enjoy C3 man. very fun

[mint light]

Even Hinoki can't do it

THATS the part you missing

[normal lake]

this r6c3 is a banger ass level

[surreal plaza]

[topaz ridge]

and im the fucking president of the usa

[surreal plaza]

Something is cooking

[coarse grail]

Oh I'm not up to date with whats been done and whats not really

I thought he did R4E1ex but I guess with bugs on some

[mint light]

Very much so

[normal lake]

That aint a good thing

[surreal plaza]

Yeah and I’m homelander

[topaz ridge]

[mint light]

Heavy cheese

[crimson oriole]

cheddar, if you will

[coarse grail]

all low tier solo has to involve cheese though

[topaz ridge]

homelander is such a goofy character imo

[mint light]

Same for R6Cx

[coarse grail]

lets be realistic

[mint light]

And R7E1

[coarse grail]

eh we've been over this convo before I think

different flavours of cheese

some prohibited, some not

[topaz ridge]

i prefer mozzarella

or swiss

[mint light]

Yeah but door cheese is just not legit however you try to spin it

[surreal plaza]

all what!!?!

[mint light]

So in other words these levels are yet un soloed

[topaz ridge]

oh youre talking about door glitches

i thought it was actual cheese

fuck im dumb

[coarse grail]

keep yourself safe

[glacial shard]

Add the cheese

white cheese to be precise

[rustic hinge]

i still have no idea what door glitch even is lmao

[normal lake]

nah this is the average ability to read of this server

[coarse grail]

door glitch is a myth

[mint light]

Keep your soul clean

[crimson oriole]

snoozefest button

[coarse grail]

and you shouldn't search for it

[topaz ridge]

does the turret door glitch still work or was it patched?

[rustic hinge]

not like i would ever use it

[coarse grail]

its a memetic agent

it will hijack your brain

[glacial shard]

someone did the door glitch in my lobby, still no idea how

[rustic hinge]

my squad has integrity

[crimson oriole]

door bug has been contained by the SCP foundation

[mint light]

Well that's a run you can throw in the bin

[topaz ridge]

containment level: pickle

[normal lake]

Was fuckin around r2d2 as a duo and had a bug where shooters and hybrids couldnt hit me happen multiple times

[glacial shard]

I think it was R1D1?

[mint light]

There is no door to cheese tho

[topaz ridge]

i would put that down to desync

happens sometimes

[glacial shard]

I forgot the level then

[normal lake]

nah once it happened the entire level would be like that

[mint light]

unless you went into side zones???

[crimson oriole]

side doors could have been opened before alarms

[topaz ridge]

oh damn

[mint light]

Yeah what I just realised

[normal lake]

someone said mem leak so ima assume they right

[gusty burrow]

Projectile bug. Shooter targetting slowly drifts to a point above the player, likely due to a memory leak (happens more quickly on systems with smaller memory).

[mint light]

I never go in there so it's not first reflex for me

[crimson oriole]

understandable

[normal lake]

its just strange that it only happened on r2d2 cus ive never had it happen before

[gusty burrow]

It can happen on any level, it might have happened faster since R2D2 is a pretty big level and also a reactor, big levels and reactors always make any kind of weirdness weirder

[normal lake]

by memory you are refering to ram correct, my old rig had 32 gb but decided it wasnt really necessary in my new rig so ive only got 16. This never happened to my old rig so i wonder if that may be the reason this is only happening now for me

[rustic hinge]

r2d2 as a whole is just a hellscape

[mint light]

It's a nice reactor

good blueprint for what's to come

[rustic hinge]

Its fun but so painful

[mint light]

And you about to hit R4E1 right??

😂😂

[rustic hinge]

With a different group lmao

[mint light]

Man you gonna have the time of your life

Enjoy tho, I really really like that level

[rustic hinge]

Im looking forward to it i know my squad can do it

[mint light]

Absolutely, it will involve a lot of retrying but when you got it down it's straightforward

[rustic hinge]

First e tier completion for me

[mint light]

One of the better levels. would play it way more if it was not also on the long side

[mint light]

Oh. might want to do R2E1 then, it's the easiest E

[coarse grail]

@sharp owl #gtfo-media message

1. Prioritise killing enemies and evading hits over scans. Also machine pistol aint gonna do shit at that range, especially not stagger a giant
2. You handled it well so gj, but the 2nd guy woke up quick cos you were walking a lot before hitting
3. See 1. You need to kite away and kill those guys before scanning, or kill them quicker as they enter
4. smg is not great for solo cos its damage output is low. Also see 1
   Just noticed you are taking cfoam every time, why? A sentry or mines would help way more
5. You maybe could have run away instead of reloading at the end
6. This was a LOT better. You focussed on killing the enemies and just fumbled the ending

[gusty burrow]

Yeah memory = RAM. That'd definitely contribute.

[mint light]

R4E1 is a couple steps higher

[rustic hinge]

I got to the first surge in the error with my old group and they stopped playing after a few weeks of fails

[mint light]

Well as my message above says, this will be a couple jumps in difficulty higher

[sharp owl]

Taking cfoam cause i was tilted and was doing this without any sentries to train my aim

[rustic hinge]

Im expecting it

[mint light]

Hardest level in the game

[normal lake]

was just making sure i was on the same page, its only like 70$ to throw another 16gb in my pc and prob will in the future

more than anything i wanna drop a few hundo on a cpu upgrade

[rustic hinge]

When i was on rundown 2 we had one experienced player with me and 2 of my friends who were much less so

[normal lake]

that and its not like this glitch negatively effects my experience beyond making the level easier id still rather it not happen

[rustic hinge]

Like they played og r1 up to c1 and then didnt play until alts

And i had never gone past b tier until we got together again

[coarse grail]

I wouldn't say playing R1 to C1 is experienced

[mint light]

I am not saying you can't do it, you will Def do it. Just expect more than R2E1. and after that you know you had the hardest the game has to offer (Plz R8)

[rustic hinge]

Yeah im saying me and my friends were quite inexperienced when we were in r2

[mint light]

And enjoy, that's the most important

[coarse grail]

👆 Making a little more progress each time is the sweet cycle of pleasure this game should bring you

[rustic hinge]

Very true

[mint light]

Exactly. Figuring out the start, figuring out the secondary etc etc. step by step

It's a good challenge

[rustic hinge]

It will definitely take multiple sessions but we are ready for it

Current group is all pretty experienced and we went into d2 blind and beat pe third drop

[gusty burrow]

@sharp owl Honestly your last attempt with carbine combat shotty looked good. Prioritized living a bit more, playing the corner well to avoid striker licks.

I think the big things you could do to pretty quickly see some improvements are:

1. Take slightly more time to aim your shots before shooting. When you're host you really do have longer than you think before the enemy actually attacks. Of course when there's 5 in front of you just keep blasting.
2. You can walk to the side in a semi-cricle while facing an enemy/a few enemies and you'll dodge their attack(s). But you also keep them in vision and can shoot them the whole time. This is a good go to when there's enough enemies that you can't just shoot and stagger them all, but not quite enough to warrant a full reposition.

[mint light]

Good spirit

[mint light]

Nice. But this is uncomparable

[rustic hinge]

True

[mint light]

But you'll see very very fast.

[rustic hinge]

E1 is another kind of beast

But we can do it

[normal lake]

yeah for the first clip he just got mowed down by shooters in the back while being way to tunnel visioned on the strikers and the giants

[junior latch]

Fuck shooters

All my homies hate shooters

[rustic hinge]

Free melee kills tbh

[junior latch]

in a solo shooters are pain

[wispy bluff]

Not when they actually support a wave of strikers with suppressive fire

[junior latch]

have fun melee killing them during alarms

[gusty burrow]

I mean you are definitely supposed to shoot the giants and strikers there.

[wispy bluff]

This is where the importance of dedicated sharpshooters popping those sporeheads comes in

[burnt flume]

it was nenpi who did r4e1 ex solo, but it still required long kiting, boosters, and manipulating mother dearest to birth her babies on a spot they'd be stuck for enemy capping

basically you don't r4e1 solo without enemy capping in one way or another

[normal lake]

absolutely but ignoring the shooters completely like he did really hurt him there

gotta get cover or at the very least be moving a bit to dodge some shots

[rustic hinge]

Im kinda ass at soloing i havent really done it

Group strategizing has always been one of my favourite parts

[junior latch]

try starting with a chill A (r5a1 main, r6a1/r7a1) tier or smth like R1B1

[normal lake]

i finished the class 4 alarm in r1a1 while cleaning up the last wave and thats where that run ended for me

alarms in solo are fuckin rough

that was a long time ago and i wonder if i could do it now

[rustic hinge]

Yeah thats the biggest turn off for me on solo tbh

[junior latch]

its fun

[normal lake]

its a really fuckin good way to learn how to manage waves and deal with alarms

[junior latch]

r1a1 class 4 is hard af for an a tier solo tho

[rustic hinge]

I have tried it a few times but never enjoyed it nearly as much as multiplayer

[wispy bluff]

It's a fascinating challenge, but ultimately you are playing the game in a way that was not intended, so you know what you subscribe to.

[normal lake]

yeah i would never take it past an A tier level personally

[burnt flume]

idk how far I could be bothered to solo

[wispy bluff]

R7A1 is piss easy I heard.

[burnt flume]

I mean I've done some half hearted attempts at r4d1 (in the og)

but for the most part solo is just dead boring

[wispy bluff]

Although carrying da baby might be a chore.

[normal lake]

r7a1 could be done solo by a complete beginner at the game lmfao

[burnt flume]

if it's a test of skill/shooting ability it's kinda cool tbh

like og r4b3 overload is quite the thing to be able to hold solo

2m20s of a brutal scan

[junior latch]

personally i stop at D tier with serious attempts

ive done r6dx (now cx) until the trip uplink that i cheesed

ive done r1d1 (but well lol)

[normal lake]

but at what point do levels turn into endless kiting and abuse of mechanics

[junior latch]

that mostly happens if you dont want insane stuff to spawn

[normal lake]

ive seen a few vids and it looks exhausting

[junior latch]

see r6d3

[burnt flume]

giant kiting is kinda the "work smarter, not harder" of soloing

[junior latch]

or during surge alarms

[burnt flume]

but then again some stuff you really don't want to solo without being cracked/having boosters

hinoki almost died in his r4c3 solo, but didn't need to kite at all so massive props

cpu speed sniper sentry + provisions does some funny stuff

[normal lake]

i wanna do r1a1 solo but other than that i have literally 0 solo goals

[rustic hinge]

Holy fuck

[rustic hinge]

Pe?

[burnt flume]

of course

[rustic hinge]

Jesus

[burnt flume]

it's hinoki we're talking about here

[normal lake]

hinoki is built different

[burnt flume]

tbh if you can consistently hold r1a1 chances are you can shoot better than like, 70% of the players in this game

[normal lake]

might give it a attempt today

No clue what loadout to use since last i attempted that was alt r1 release

[rustic hinge]

R4c3 was hella stressful

[normal lake]

times have changed

[burnt flume]

most people use combat shotgun still, and then a strong primary

but you can get away with a lot of stuff tbh

I'd always use DMR combat shotgun because I hate shooters

[rustic hinge]

Was honestly harder than both d tiers for my group

[burnt flume]

well tbh all of my r1a1 solos bar one have been speedruns so of course I'm taking weapons that let me do funny stuff

[wispy bluff]

Chargers do be like that

[burnt flume]

in some situations I want to stagger instead of kill to manipulate wave spawns

[wispy bluff]

Bastards

[rustic hinge]

Charger error plus scout and 5 giant charger room

Free wipe

[burnt flume]

I did r4c3 pe the other day, wasn't too bad

[normal lake]

With my recent practice using hel shotgun i actually feel significantly more comfortable with combat shotgun so not a terrible choice

[burnt flume]

but then again I have pushed myself to get very good at this game

[normal lake]

dmr is a weapon im to fucking incompetant to use

[burnt flume]

you'll probably do fine with something like smg which has decent output, large mag, quick reload

[rustic hinge]

I wouldnt call myself super cracked at all

[burnt flume]

carbine also there

[normal lake]

carbine would prob be my first choice

[rustic hinge]

Carbine/choke mod my beloved combo

[normal lake]

chargers can and will fuck you up for just existing

[burnt flume]

tbh I still miss every other shot with DMR

or I did when I last ran

[normal lake]

what tool should i run, im considering cfoam since delaying a alarm is great but then id be fucked once that door comes down

mine deployer allows me to kite through doors

[burnt flume]

if you want to get better at holding, burst sentry 100%

[junior latch]

cfoam if you find a tripmine is the cheesy way

burst sentry is most consistent

[burnt flume]

if you want alternative strats/an easier time, mines or foam

[junior latch]

as you can still find tripmines

[normal lake]

there is also a class 3 alarm right at the beginning correct

[rustic hinge]

Just 2 if its r1a1

[burnt flume]

Class 2 alarm to key zone, then class 4 alarm to hsu zone

[normal lake]

ill do a few attempts with burst and see what i come up with

[normal lake]

gotcha so not a major worry since there is a door for the class 2

[rustic hinge]

Im burnt out on the game one 5 hour session was enough lmao

[normal lake]

well idk if ill even use the door in that case tho

might be easier to deal with them if they file in slower rather than all at once

[near gulch]

Yoo whats up everyone! I just downloaded this game. Am I in for a treat... 😄

[rustic hinge]

Ohh yeah

[latent palm]

@sharp owl

[rustic hinge]

It gets crazy

[latent palm]

i like your style

but i think

you should not be contesting a scan

while 7 of them start to gang up on you

better yet

you can long kite them

which R2A1 has alot of pathing of

[near gulch]

Awesome! Can I play solo or can I find ransoms online 😇

[normal lake]

well ill give r1a1 solo another attempt and find out if ive improved at the game

[normal lake]

play with bots or better play with randoms

best is ofc play with people you already know

[rustic hinge]

Pretty much yeah

Full squad of real people is the intended way

[near gulch]

Literally nobody I knows plays this haha 😄 I guess randoms it is

[coarse grail]

.t lfg

[foggy plank]

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

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

[rustic hinge]

Best of luck

[coarse grail]

This is the best way of finding people to match up with

Don't use in game matchmaking

[normal lake]

was gonna do this but didnt remember command kek

[sharp owl]

How does one long kite them

Do you mean walk backwards in a circle and shoot

[coarse grail]

long kiting is trailing enemies across the whole map and then returning to scans with enough time to finish them or res your team

[sharp owl]

But i can hardly outrun them, how is that possible?

[coarse grail]

use of terrain normally

[latent palm]

U run lol

[coarse grail]

shutting doors

[sharp owl]

But I skipped leg day

[latent palm]

Run a semi cirle to avoid hits from anything

Push spawn away

And secure vantage point which is a tail you have behind you

[near gulch]

Oh why not

[latent palm]

Just imagine the wave being a tail

[sharp owl]

Doesn't work cause nobody uses it

[latent palm]

They’ll follow you on the path you ran

[coarse grail]

its slower to find people, and you're more likely to get hackers and other unsavory types

[sharp owl]

They will?

[latent palm]

Yes

[sharp owl]

Won't they like

Tske the shortest path

[latent palm]

Especially when ur solo bolo lol

[latent palm]

Ur alone

Which way they take exception is doors closed

Will result in them walking over your path

[coarse grail]

On discord people can see what level you host and join it rather than hoping that you both matchmade for the same level at the same time. Also people can get banned on the discord for inhumane conduct, so theres generally a higher level of courtesy

[near gulch]

I See! Perhaps I find some teammates on discord or then Reddit

[latent palm]

So youll never encounter the fact of being sandwiched

[coarse grail]

Is the reddit not blacked out any more?

But yeah I recommend discord for lfg

[sharp owl]

Okay, so the new plan is to like

[coarse grail]

Oh cool, the reddit is back up

[latent palm]

Just tun away lol

[burnt flume]

Yes, but they have to navigate around geometry while you can jump over it/cut corners, or abuse their AI in other ways

[latent palm]

Dont content scans

[sharp owl]

Do scan 1
Run around the entire map
Do scan 2

[latent palm]

2 rooms

[coarse grail]

Its not a fun way to play the game

[latent palm]

Do the math genius

[coarse grail]

But if you're playing solo and kiting around a horde of giants 🤷

[latent palm]

You can however kill the giants and let smols spawn

I mean

U are solo boling

[wispy bluff]

Basically long kite is abusing enemy AI, specifically their inability to move like you do - they can't just of random ledges nor jump onto them.

[sharp owl]

It would be funny if waves were 20 giants

[latent palm]

All the resources go to u

I dont see a problem of running out of anything there

[sharp owl]

That's still less

You start the game with around 8 ammo pack uses of ammo

2 on every guy

Alone you start with 2

And less tool

The resources all go to you but you need to shoot more enemies and you start with less

And when i say more i mean that because scans take longer there's literally a bigger number, not that I have to shoot everything

That all being said I've never ran out of ammo

[coarse grail]

when multiple people are shooting a lot of ammo will be wasted on overkill

[sharp owl]

That's true

I'm very guilty of that

[gusty burrow]

I love when you're playing and hear 4 high cals shoot every time a single enemy comes around the corner

[coarse grail]

But it was me who got the orange kill marker!!

[gusty burrow]

I killed the enemy idk why everyone else is wasting ammo

[true pilot]

do people run 4 high cals???

[coarse grail]

saddle up pardner we're on the hunt for some chargers 🤠

[true pilot]

Ive never actually taken high cal for chargers, hel rifle seems better

[gusty burrow]

Generally not, but I don't think my comment is funnier if I said "a high cal a choke mod a hel revo and a precision rifle" or something like that

[true pilot]

i suppose

but hel revo isnt much of a waste anyway

[wispy bluff]

It's still insane to me that it's 8 raw

[sharp owl]

8 what

[wispy bluff]

Dmg

[true pilot]

oh yeah the buff

[sharp owl]

Did they buff thr hel revolver

Wasn't it already good

[true pilot]

They nerfed hel revo

[coarse grail]

they nerfed its reload

[true pilot]

high cal got buffed

or rebalanced i suppose

[sharp owl]

So what buff

[wispy bluff]

25 > 30 dmg

Slightly reduced ammo

Still got away with 1 extra bullet it used to have when released

They basically just reverted the post release change

[coarse grail]

I don't see an issue with it having 30 damage

not sure why they nerfed it really

[true pilot]

yeah i like the change

[wispy bluff]

Too many 30s I suppose

[coarse grail]

Choke mod -> Hical -> Shotgun is a nice scale of burst to wave clear

[sharp owl]

Choke mod is awesome in a team

[coarse grail]

I very much like the choke mod

[sharp owl]

Such an easy time killing stuff

[wispy bluff]

It's been a topic of hot debate recently

High cal basically outperforms it somewhat

[coarse grail]

at a certain range

[sharp owl]

Well not when it comes to magdump
