[wispy bluff]

Go diverse squad

[worthy flicker]

They can only come from the right of said hole

[sharp owl]

so 2 burst 1 auto

[wispy bluff]

Something like that, yeah.

[worthy flicker]

I dunno how to articulate exactly where I'm describing tho

[wispy bluff]

Have burst meet the waves and then auto is ambushing behind the cargo truck, looking sideways

If enemies start to overwhelm you - just fall back and it will catch them.

[serene jewel]

Or just use a sniper sentry instead of auto

[burnt flume]

I'd suggest 1 burst sentry and 1 sniper sentry down all the time, and one burst sentry for a rainy day, but you can get away with a fair number of things

[sharp owl]

yeah but sniper has low ammo and will just waste ammo on strikers

[serene jewel]

Auto is useless for killing

[wispy bluff]

Yeah, that's not the point.

[worthy flicker]

Good for holding though

[serene jewel]

So wasting it on not killing even strikers is better? Lol

[worthy flicker]

It will stop the wave in its tracks for you

[wispy bluff]

Which is why its ambushing behind the truck. Its just there to prevent wipe scenarious of being overwhelmed and surrounded.

[serene jewel]

Yeah outside of niches like that

It's not great

[sharp owl]

ok im confused i know 2 burst sentries but auto sentry or sniper for the 3rd

[wispy bluff]

Enemy is too strong > fall back > it staggers the wave > you kill it > pat it on the head > back to forward positions.

Its a somewhat silly way to play, but it works.

[worthy flicker]

Whichever you prefer, tbh

My group did it with 2 burst 1 hel

[little ridge]

Not for r1c1

[burnt flume]

I would suggest sniper for the 3rd, or you can take a 3rd burst sentry, it's a flexible spot

[wispy bluff]

Honestly anything will work that is not 3 Autos or 3 Shotguns.

[burnt flume]

you can take auto too if you really want I guess

[little ridge]

NO POINT to taking autosentry for R1C1

It's a reactor you need to kill shit

[junior latch]

Only is when you dont shoot much lol

[sharp owl]

does sniper sentry priortize stronger enemies over striker

[wispy bluff]

You can even bring 3 snipers if you feel like it, but you'll have to play around with their sightlines so that they don't simultanously shoot the same target.

[worthy flicker]

I don't think the turret is gonna be the reason you lose, tbh

[serene jewel]

There's no point to taking auto sentry in most situations

[little ridge]

Just take 3 snipers, place them in tandem so they dont risk shooting at the same target

[junior latch]

honestly its not that great of a pic here unless you rly only wanna stonewall the hole and defend your teammates shooting at range

Hel revo just does it better

[wispy bluff]

Much unfortunately no. Allegedly it aims for the furthest enemy, which is very counter intuitive...

[worthy flicker]

That is exactly what I was doing with it tbf

[rose nova]

with auto tbh a bit

i mean u can but its gonna hindle ur chances a bit

specially as a newie

[little ridge]

I think it's the closest to the angle like someone told Darkeva some... hours ago? cant remember

[junior latch]

Dont take auto sentry

You will not know what to rly do with it and it will eat tool. Artek wants to go off meta all the time. A 3rd burst will just generally do more for you

[worthy flicker]

I mean, my group completed it with the auto turret, so I can say the auto turret isn't gonna be causation for loss in its entirety

I'd also believe I'm considered new to gtfo

[little ridge]

#gtfo-chat message

[rose nova]

well u shoot better than most newies then, or at least handle those situations better

[serene jewel]

Of course it won't be the reason you lose if you're not terrible

[junior latch]

Again. Low ammo doesnt mean inefficient

if a sniper sentry under bio kills strikers its more efficient than a burst sentry for gods sake

[serene jewel]

Also not the reason you make it though

[worthy flicker]

Just click on heads, it's easy

[rose nova]

...

welp

like

idek

im gonna go play

[little ridge]

For finishing R1C1 the bar ain't high, no hate to anyone

[serene jewel]

So what if sniper has low ammo? At least it's not eating tool just spraying it at max range

[junior latch]

I just prefer solokilling most of wave the second it spawns with hel rifle spam

[little ridge]

You can finish it with 4 people that can aim decently and 4 bios or whatever

[wispy bluff]

Oh yeah, HEL weapons are GOAT for this level. All of them.

Just bring 4 HEL Guns, lol. Can't go wrong.

[little ridge]

Albeit nerf to sniper's mag size will make it a bit harder

[junior latch]

You can complete the map with 4 bios and the worst weapons

Auto sentry is gonna make it harder for no reason on them

[worthy flicker]

I'm just saying in my experience it worked

[junior latch]

Sleepo

[serene jewel]

Anecdotes are worthless

[junior latch]

Yes
But we are just saying that this isnt rly a good argument (this isnt an attack on you, just pointing it out since some people do defend wacky strats with that answer)

[little ridge]

@worthy flicker Consider this, reactors dont work like alarms, enemies go in queue if you dont kill them fast enough

[burnt flume]

there is a difference between anecdotes and the observed fact that on a lot of levels you can get away with anything

[little ridge]

So keeping them alive and staggered is detrimental nearly always

Of course noone is saying he'll lose with an auto

[worthy flicker]

If you can get away with anything, equipment isn't the issue then imo, it's player skill itself, sorry if I sound like an asshole saying that though

[junior latch]

still a bad argumet unless someone thinks you NEED a specific thing to win

[little ridge]

But if someone asks me how to cut through butter I certanly won't say "just use a machete"

Rather a knife

[serene jewel]

That's an excuse to the fact that hel auto sucks outside niche cases and r1c1 is not one of them lmao

[little ridge]

Bad analogy but you get what I mean

[worthy flicker]

I'm just trying to picture spreading butter with a machete after you cut it

That seems awful

[junior latch]

This saying is bad tho

if player skill is all and equipment doesnt matter thrn why can a worse player do more vs a wave than a good one with peak weapons vs ass weapons

[serene jewel]

It's just a red herring

[sharp owl]

I’m gonna have to go with 3 bursts I don’t got a 4th man for the bio scanner

[serene jewel]

Give it to a bot

[junior latch]

Give it to the bot lol

[little ridge]

dont place 3rd sentry until wave 4 tbh

[worthy flicker]

I'm not the person who originally said equipment doesn't matter, ask them

[little ridge]

4-6-8 have hybrids+giants

[sharp owl]

Oh shoot completely forgot about that lol last time I used a bot it broke stealth and wouldn’t enter a bio scan but that doesn’t matter with reactor level

[wispy bluff]

Oh really

Its even predetermined

[worthy flicker]

Bots don't break stealth

[serene jewel]

Bots cannot break stealth so someone blamed them as an excuse

[worthy flicker]

^

[little ridge]

Never knew? I used to play that map a lot

Very relaxing

[sharp owl]

Makes sense one of my friends has a real issue with being stealthy

[wispy bluff]

I Just guessed that they start appearing after 4th round but i never noticed a pattern

[serene jewel]

The scan thing is an issue tho

But not for r1c1

[worthy flicker]

The bots are some funny mfs sometimes

[little ridge]

It's always 4-6-8 and it's always 3 hybrids

[sharp owl]

Alright any tips for what extras to bring? Load up on tool refills only or what

[little ridge]

Cant remember the giants but I think they are 2-4-6-8 and always 3

[junior latch]

nah i know beth says that and i disagree

their actual point should be (and honestly probably is) that equipment wont be making stuff impossible (with potential rare exceptions). Instead its more likely a difficulty slider

[serene jewel]

What do you mean by extras

[wispy bluff]

Tool is top 1 priority.

[sharp owl]

Tool resupply and medkit

[junior latch]

Ignore boosters

[sharp owl]

That stuff

[wispy bluff]

Sentries run out - you die, simple as that.

[junior latch]

oh

just bring the biggest ammo/tool with you from the early part of the map

[wispy bluff]

You can just gobble up everything you find in the area right after deploying, before the first scan-door.

Hitting 100% doesn't matter, you're not coming back for it.

[worthy flicker]

Yeah, there's gonna be a lot of resources

[serene jewel]

I want to make an r1c1 guide because so many noobs get stuck on it lol

[little ridge]

Someone did aeons ago I think let me check

[worthy flicker]

I think r1c1 took us 3 tries to get through?

[junior latch]

There is guides

multiple even

newbies just dont check those

[little ridge]

#gtfo-chat message

[serene jewel]

Yeah but

[rose nova]

we had a copypaste

[sharp owl]

Ok so load up on tool resupplies that should be all thanks for help

[little ridge]

Yeah Wheat Throne did I think

[wispy bluff]

Good luck!

[rose nova]

even if u werent the original person who said it the sayin its still, not good

[worthy flicker]

I'm just directing the question to whom it should be asked to

[junior latch]

im mostly just giving real context to the argument

[worthy flicker]

I just specified hel turret worked out for us and everyone lost their minds

[wispy bluff]

HEL Turret Prejudice 😔

[serene jewel]

Because "it worked for us" was your answer to everyone saying auto turret is bad

[rose nova]

yeah but still bad advice

[sharp owl]

Thanks unfortunately we failed it twice in a row on wave 4 due to the spitters that shoot 3 at a time that have massive health pools so we’re gonna try again tommorow

[junior latch]

Because saying „it worked for us“ is usually used as „this is good“

[worthy flicker]

That's not what I'm saying at all though, and it's on you if you took it like that

[serene jewel]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[rose nova]

welp it looked like it, i guess we all took it like that

[wispy bluff]

Yeah, we call those Hybrids. They are giant pieces of shit and is the source of most of the wipes. You see one - they are a top priority target and to be nuked immediately.
Countered to shit by Sniper Rifle. Single headshot pops them like a melon.

[worthy flicker]

Good, not good, it's just what we used, if it helps it helps

[serene jewel]

Those are probably the hybrids

[worthy flicker]

What exactly are the hybrids? Are they the chickens?

[sharp owl]

So basically hybrids are giants that also shoot 3 at a time awesome

[wispy bluff]

Khem khem: it used as "this is good enough"

[burnt flume]

yeah it's always the thing of you can get away with it, but it isn't the best

[serene jewel]

They don't shoot three at a time but they do just brrrrr like a machinegun

[burnt flume]

hard to fuck yourself over hard enough to the point where your tool of all things is gonna matter unless you're straight up trolling

[wispy bluff]

They are basically super shooters. In code they are called "Burst shooters" or someshit like that, which is very fitting.

[serene jewel]

They are different

[little ridge]

I mean the context is 3 newbies failing r1c1

[rose nova]

no, chickens are giant shooters, hybrids are the ones with spikes in their heads, shoot a ton of projectiles at once and punch if u get close

[worthy flicker]

Gotcha gotcha, ty

[little ridge]

Using decent tools is gonna help them

[junior latch]

thats kind of what im aiming at tho

if the discussion is „you can only do this with x“ then „it worked for us with x“ works in that way

while „x isnt that good, you should run y if you want an easier time“ into „it worked for us with x“ hits different

[rose nova]

chimkens are slow and look like shooters and dont have melee

[burnt flume]

the case I'm talking about is people succeeding on r1c1 having an auto sentry

[junior latch]

You say that YET you KNOW that burst sentry solo carries pubs shooting skills

[serene jewel]

I like r1c1 because I get to watch my cpu speed sniper go ham

[burnt flume]

oh yes I do know that, but for full team having 1 or 2 bad tools will likely be compensated by having more

[junior latch]

you should play r7d2 tbh

[serene jewel]

Oh yeah I did that too

[burnt flume]

to the point where if you fail it's a combination of factors, you made it harder on yourself taking the bad tool but a good tool wouldn't have fixed all your mistakes

[little ridge]

I mean I finished that with 3 pubs, 1 foam 1 mine 1 bio 1 sniper sentry and it went smoothly as possible

[junior latch]

then auto sentry uses too much for too little, they struggle more. They dont get the ressources to refill it all. Give out 50% to all. Repeat to 0 and death

obviously player is not good here

[little ridge]

But mines barely did anything

[junior latch]

but 3 burst dont have that issue

[little ridge]

Even placing them high to only trigger on giants

[serene jewel]

Yeah every other tool sucks ass

[junior latch]

i love „mine vs giants“ on reactor plan

especially when 1 mine does less than a sniper sentry bullet usually

[worthy flicker]

I wish the mines felt better into big boys

[serene jewel]

Trip mine damage go

[junior latch]

Eh mines already wipe out complete waves of smalls

[worthy flicker]

I know I just like landmines lmao

I want more reasons to use the Krieger

[serene jewel]

I wish we had actual HE grenades

[worthy flicker]

Everytime I see a cluster of 15 or so little dudes I think this too

"Man I'd go for a grenade right about now"

Could you imagine the grenades with FF tho?

[rose nova]

grenades would make it a lil too, easy to clear big big rooms, and even mines already make that easy

[worthy flicker]

In some of these cramped spaces

[junior latch]

Huh o.O its already like, the 3rd most used tool

[rose nova]

as long as u have a door u can like wake all rooms

[wispy bluff]

Exactly the reason they don't do that, although having a very rare consumable could be interesting.

1 grenade per level definetely wouldn't be too game breaking

[junior latch]

it would

[burnt flume]

we already have grenades, guys

[worthy flicker]

We make weapons out of junk sometimes right? Like the sledgehammers look homemade

[serene jewel]

Use it at spawn to wipe everyone

[burnt flume]

just not the ones you want

[rose nova]

foam grenades are cool >:[

enough

[wispy bluff]

Just a little "its all going to shit: FIX IT" button. Once per level. Basically checkpoints without the checkpoint.
...
Gotta hit the explosion just right though.

[worthy flicker]

GTFO pipebomb when

[worthy flicker]

YEAH

[little ridge]

🇺🇸 Aircraft Carrier consumable 🇺🇸

[junior latch]

then instead of „why no explosions -> because op“ its

„Why only 1?!? We get 1 why not more??“

[burnt flume]

there is, sprint forward and long kite

[little ridge]

I mean, I don't think it'd be a good idea to add them but

You can use that argument for everything

[serene jewel]

What's with the log

[junior latch]

yesnt?

for some things it makes sense to be added

for others it would just fuel wanting more

see checkpoint

„Why no savepoint“

was HUGE during og r6

[serene jewel]

Dodging

[junior latch]

Speedrunning joke

[serene jewel]

🤔

[wispy bluff]

It canonically has: turrets.
In one of the logs post "it all got fucked" someone mentions in bold text that people should update their bio-signatures, because sentries are gonna be online.
Too bad we never see it in the game though.

[junior latch]

No dodging they legit just fucked up stam cost

[burnt flume]

only 1 specific person was asking for dodge back

[worthy flicker]

This game had a dodge mechanic?

[serene jewel]

It's back

But no one needs to know

[junior latch]

it was bugged/broken for a while

[burnt flume]

basically if you press sprint and left/right at the same time you get a burst of speed to the side

[little ridge]

They use logs to predict if the seed has a good rng or what the codes from uplinks are and things like that IIRC, Darkeva can correct if I'm wrong

[serene jewel]

Oh

[worthy flicker]

Neat, ty

[junior latch]

but with the fix they made it use A ton of stamina

[serene jewel]

It's also broken with toggle sprint and doesn't work

[burnt flume]

logs can tell you where items like keys and cells have spawned, I don't think it does uplink codes or passwords or any of that stuff

[junior latch]

its neat for singular dodges into cover

but it cripples your movement long term (and sucks if used when you dont want to)

[little ridge]

I THINK it does for codes you get automatically like r2c1's?

[junior latch]

Uplink skip is no longer a thing since alt r6

[little ridge]

Nevermind then I was wrong

[worthy flicker]

Tbh I'm probably gonna forget to use it

Gtfo doesn't seem like the type of game to have a dodge

If that makes sense

[serene jewel]

It's borderline useless anyway and detrimental sometimes

[worthy flicker]

A lot of the stuff I actually get hit by idk if I'd have the ability to dodge

It's mainly giant swings when someone breaks stealth

[junior latch]

good movement is huge

especially if host

[worthy flicker]

Shooter projectiles I've found I can just move around

[little ridge]

eh that not really

[junior latch]

you can pretty much dodge everything (but a specific enemies attack)

[worthy flicker]

I am never host so sometimes stuff is hitting me anyway lmao

[little ridge]

I do it sometimes but I'd lie if I said I do it consistently

[serene jewel]

It's a miserable experience trying to dodge as client

[worthy flicker]

The phantom range on some of them melees do be ball busting

[little ridge]

For shooter projectiles pretend you're Neo and watch the bullet while strafing

[worthy flicker]

Sometimes client side is just going "lol okay" and accepting whatever just happened in my experience

[little ridge]

Strikers IIRC attack in a keyhole thingy

[worthy flicker]

Keyhole thingy?

[little ridge]

#gtfo-chat message

[worthy flicker]

I see, ty

[little ridge]

Thank tru I guess, I just linked 😄

[worthy flicker]

I find a lot of stuff in the game to be really fair when I'm host

But on client side not getting hit feels like a gamble sometimes

[serene jewel]

When client you just get hit by everything unless you outright sprint to the side of an attack and even then it's 50/50

[little ridge]

I find it harder to kill shit before they hit me as client but that's normal I guess

[serene jewel]

Yeah

[little ridge]

On the upside it helped so I'd cut the timings of getting something killed

[serene jewel]

Lots of "bullshit I killed staggered/killed you already how did that hit"

[worthy flicker]

It's just client side stuff, but tbh I prefer p2p for the simple fact it means as long as you have friends willing to play the game will always be online

It's why I can still play OG MW2 online

[sharp owl]

r5b4 is quite fun

im not thrilled that i'll have to do basically the entirety of R5 again because i haven't done like any secondaries

[little ridge]

I disagree on it being fun tbh

[sharp owl]

why? lots of things to shoot

not too hard

[little ridge]

It's basically get cell, get res, wait at door x3

[sharp owl]

oh yeah that timer is a bit too long

we were waiting for like 8 minutes total

it should be 25 minutes

[little ridge]

For what it's worth I remember OG's actual alarmed sec door to be MUCH thougher

[little ridge]

I just dont really like levels like that or r6c3

It's not really that I dont like rushing, I dont like being gated by the game

[sharp owl]

that's true

oh i got some amazing pants

Roughneck MDR Cargo

that's what i'm talking about

rugged and dirty with straps and pockets

[little ridge]

🇺🇸

[jade iron]

I think this is kind of the issue

it feels very underwhelming

[sharp owl]

it is a b level to be fair

[jade iron]

which maybe is fine for a B level, if a bit out of character for r5

I remember when I was a noob my crew struggled with r5b4

[little ridge]

I always considered it a "proof of concept"

[jade iron]

nowadays I have a really hard time understanding why we struggled

[little ridge]

Which is bizzarre in a game with so few maps to begin with but whatever

[sharp owl]

r5b4 crawled so r8e1 could get the 100m sprint world record

[flat perch]

duo'ing it with sniper sentry back damage was exhilarating at the time

[little ridge]

To be fair me too, but I think the alarmed door was thougher

[jade iron]

maybe

maybe also r5 distribution bug?

[little ridge]

On the other hand I remember people cheesing that map by abusing all the doors+mines

[jade iron]

can't really call door mining cheese

[little ridge]

still you get what I mean

[flat perch]

the ultimate cheese still is to wait out the ~34 minutes, then walk back the empty rooms with turbine in total silence

[nimble pumice]

door + mine is cheese?

[little ridge]

People really just cleared a zone then proceeded to spread so they spawned outside a door they could mine

[nimble pumice]

[jade iron]

they're mines, you're meant to create a minefield by laying them on the ground

[little ridge]

Abusing the spawning mechanics so they just spawn out and you mine it tbh

I mean look at it from this perspective: Enemies can only spawn behind door, I hear the scream, I close door, I mine it, goes boom, wave dead

Rinse repeat

for a good bunch of the waves

I'd say it's fair to call that cheese

Shit like door glitching would be far more than cheese

even if people call it doorcheese

that's not a cheese that's cheating

[flat perch]

why not just cconsole in and do stopallwave + killenemies

player versus environment game, let's make the environment 100% harmless, mmm

"sense of achievement"

[jade iron]

I'd just call using the environment to your advantage

I don't know why some people are so deadset on diminishing the planning and strategic aspects of the game

[sharp owl]

im so sad that we never got an inner level

[little ridge]

it feels super cheap in a map when you are... probably? supposed to run and gun a bit

[sharp owl]

like 4000 meters deep

[jade iron]

game is more than shooting things with guns

[flat perch]

exactly like riding the 2 doors 1 open 1 closed quirk of enemy pathing, u know the mechanic, u use it

[unreal crystal]

i think the map just sucks

[little ridge]

I am because some of it ain't rocket science

[unreal crystal]

shooting the enemies isnt exactly that hard either tbh

[junior latch]

yep

[little ridge]

I remember newbies calling some vets geniuses because they pulled rooms+mine

It's just that fucking easy to do

[junior latch]

its also not rly interesting to shoot

[little ridge]

I see it hard not to call it cheese

[unreal crystal]

i hope u enjoy getting off to shooting the wave then friend

instead of mining it

[little ridge]

All you're doing is mining a door

[sharp siren]

Yeah its all.about tactically crouching and timing the multikills woth your friends

[junior latch]

R8E1 (even if still kinda bleh) is just a much better version in terms of making you wait at doors

[little ridge]

Not a map I like doing to begin with

but when I did I was glad I didnt get people that wanted to minmax the doors

we mined like 2 waves when the situation was lucky enough to have it

rest we waited and shot after grabbing the res

which is boring again

[junior latch]

its rly just using a tool for its purpose

[little ridge]

but I prefer it to just mining

[nimble pumice]

idk to me shooting enemies just feels really cheesy

[little ridge]

It's harder than placing a mine behind a door

[unreal crystal]

yea, players just abuse their stagger mechanic

and get easy kills

feels cheesy

so boring

[nimble pumice]

hold m1 down, hel rifle shoot, boom

many bug dead

but to be fair both of those cheeses are not nearly as bad as run cheese

[little ridge]

On the other hand I remember people cheesing that map by abusing all the doors+mines

That's what I wrote

[nimble pumice]

abusing run allows one to get away from enemies a bit too easy imo, kinda boring

[little ridge]

I dont really know why you get "using mines and doors is always cheesing"

[nimble pumice]

okay but the funnies aside, I think its kinda goofy to say that using map design to your advantage is cheesing the game

would you consider sentries to be cheese for most reactor maps? since they make holding space much, much easier

if a map has many doors, and mines function optimally when "combined" with doors, why not use mines?

look at doors like a resource, you give up a door and a mine to clear or severely weaken a wave

[latent palm]

R4D2 but not cheese scan is fun ngl

[sullen socket]

What I've got from this conversation is

"Using mechanics in the game = cheese"

[latent palm]

That is truuu

[sullen socket]

[latent palm]

Ask @gusty burrow for more info

About what is tru and what is not tru

[jade iron]

"doors are a resource" is one of the first concepts that gripped me about gtfo as a new player

[nimble pumice]

no embed perm

[latent palm]

Embedded failed

[nimble pumice]

its pretty neat to be fair

[jade iron]

ya

[junior latch]

A lot of things are ressources that people just dont consider often (this is also true for other games)

Space is a big one in gtfo aswell

[ember cave]

@junior latch when will be new videos ?

[sharp owl]

Bruh who says that 💀

[latent palm]

Idk

But i always get the feel for it

[lost lynx]

im about to eat physical food

[latent palm]

Still on that?

@sharp owl kill him

[sharp owl]

!

[lost lynx]

i simply cant get that convo out of my head

[sharp owl]

hop on gtfo lore

[latent palm]

And for that you get shanked

[junior latch]

[analog flicker]

[rose nova]

u still will youtuber right

:]

[junior latch]

yes

[nimble pumice]

🫵 🥔

[rare stone]

hey mr strimmer can I send you a pipebomb? (in GTFO)

[junior latch]

[rare stone]

I'll take that as a yes

[analog flicker]

[rose nova]

[echo copper]

can you cfoam scout with cfoam launcher?

[shut vapor]

yes

[burnt flume]

You can cfoam almost any enemy, scouts are among those you can foam

[rose nova]

yeh!

[echo copper]

how much charge do we need?

[burnt flume]

You can always fire cfoam at an enemy to find out

[echo copper]

like full hold

[burnt flume]

Idk the specific number, probably half a charge

You can apply 1 foam at a time until it freezes

[echo copper]

ic

[jade iron]

it's probably less than 5 blobs

I never do it these days so I don't know the exact number

[analog flicker]

C foam is one of the tools I despise seeing random pubs try to use efficiently

[grizzled bison]

Put it on the floor

[nimble pumice]

put mine on floor

cfoam glob to camouflage it

ideal use

[sharp owl]

this is one of those things

i want to use mines

and just take out like 6 sleepers in a room

[sullen socket]

I am going to find you and show you clips of me charging the C-foam launcher just a few % below the amount needed to fully cfoam a door

[tepid hollow]

i have a certain set of skills, and those skills are quite useless...

[rare stone]

I can never get it quite right where the launcher uses exactly 15% with a charge

it's always a little below

[little ridge]

Just go blob by blob

I'm pretty sure it's always 9 blobs

even if the animation of fully foamed doesn't play

[rare stone]

it's slow though

I always go with like a 3/4 charge

[little ridge]

oh come on, compared to a full charge it's what, 5 seconds more?

And see it this way, you can gauge the foam hp by seeing the blobs disappear

which is a bit harder to do otherwise

[rare stone]

same reason I like lock melters

saves a few seconds from hacking :)

[peak frost]

I still kinda want to clear || R8E2 || but it's too hard

[gritty mirage]

anyone experiencing lag?

[pine root]

What r you struggling with

[hybrid cloak]

its not that bad honestly

[peak frost]

I can't get past the security scan

I usually keep waking up something cuz I feel time pressured

[pine root]

First class 6?

[peak frost]

yes

[pine root]

Do you have a team of four?

[peak frost]

Best I did was finish the scan and get killed by what got woken up

I tried bots and players

had better results with bots tho

well more consisten better results

players can do good but can also be horrible

[hybrid cloak]

how consistent is stealth before alarm

[peak frost]

I would say I get to zone with the scan in like 2/5 tries?

Those man

[grizzled bison]

Have you tried killing the scouts

[hybrid cloak]

u bringing cfoam?

[peak frost]

yea but either I wake shit up while killing scouts or shit wakes up cuz I try to avoid tentacles

And that results in also triggered scouts

or death

[peak frost]

yea but I try to avoid using too much

[rare stone]

R8E2 Scouts are worse than R5E1 Scouts

[peak frost]

I try to stealth as much as possible

But I guess I just need a break from the game

I don't even know how far u can get with bots in that mission

[hybrid cloak]

get to the 2nd terminal asap and clear that room if possible then open 2nd door and pull room

if u do it fast enough you will have 8 mins +5 to get to the bypass terminal

[rare stone]

you using an alt account bruh?

[hybrid cloak]

no main banned

[rare stone]

okay so you're just ban evading

lol

[hybrid cloak]

no thats discord

[rare stone]

how tf do you get banned on discord?

[hybrid cloak]

some photo that was part of CP and boom

[little ridge]

discord sometimes wants your phone number

[rare stone]

...

[little ridge]

If you dont want to give your phone number to discord you have to make a new account

[rare stone]

brother

[little ridge]

it ain't even technically banning

[hybrid cloak]

NTTS did a vid on it

[hybrid cloak]

it did have number

[little ridge]

When I tried to gain some knowledge with bots I basically got to the nightmare class 6 and died a couple of times then I just gave up trying with bots

[rare stone]

bots > pubs

[hybrid cloak]

u can make it farther with bots than pubs surprisingly 🤷‍♂️

[little ridge]

heh I'd say most of my tries with pubs finished before the first alarm so I guess you aren't wrong

But I dont think I could ever do that alarm with 3 bots

The scans are very long and the nightmares hit like trucks

[hybrid cloak]

you gon have to get hel shotty n scatter if u wanna do much with that alarm

i finished it yesterday but i wasted 2 mins trying to get bots to get inside the room so i can cfoam n mine so the timer ran out and i got screwed after

[junior latch]

hel shotty and scattergun for that alarm with bots is wild lol

[hybrid cloak]

well it worked

also i had to make sure i can take tanks n moms when needed and that was the combo

[lime copper]

hey how do i make my own channel so people could join my game

its been a while since i've been playing GTFO again

[serene jewel]

https://discord.com/channels/408196129470152705/1176227735501275247

add this to your channel list

[lime copper]

what nest

[serene jewel]

join it and then it'll make a channel for you, and it will auto-delete when everyone leaves

[lime copper]

oh yea

what about those long numbers

[shut vapor]

When you host a lobby, you'll get an invite button which copies those numbers to your clipboard

[lime copper]

yeah just found out

ez

[halcyon plaza]

Any tips for doors that the cfoam is clipping through consistently? I suspect it has something to do with checkpoint restart. In our last 4 restarts, the cfoam clipped through it 100%.

Super frustrating for levels where you need to permafoam a door 🙂

[tranquil crow]

Restart your game

[halcyon plaza]

The foam player or everyone

[tranquil crow]

Foam player

[lusty river]

Or just don’t use foam 😔

[halcyon plaza]

For the R8B4 level it is quite needed I think or at least we were not skilled enough to pull it off without the door. Okay, thanks. Will try to restart next time.

[upper tinsel]

We did not use foam for it 😔

[analog flicker]

4 auto sentries

[ripe void]

Put the hel against the ladder

[sharp owl]

ya'll ever just

spend 3 hours on a level

and then fail

fucken

r8c2 2 hours first attempt

then fail on the last scan at 64%

then 30 minutes from checkpoint

then we gave up because of fatigue

[lost lynx]

the GTFO experience right there

[hybrid cloak]

R8c2 was a bitch n a half to clear fkn 2 snatchers final scan

[sharp owl]

it was such bs

and not the level, the level is fine

that last scan

[lost lynx]

its 3 scans in a row right?

[sharp owl]

Tank + snatchers + enemies, everyone's at 20hp with a sledgehammer and a dream

like oh my

GOD

[lost lynx]

the level was fun
until the last part

[wraith marsh]

wtf did you guys do to take 2 hours

[sharp owl]

we uh

we made every mistake imaginable

then spent 15 minutes looting the entire map for any spare resources

[lost lynx]

B R U H

[sharp owl]

and then the terminal to shut off the second alarm was bugged btw which is HILARIOUS

i went in there and the terminal i couldn't interact with it

[wraith marsh]

how was it bugged

o

god

[sharp owl]

and because terminals are FUNNY

they're so FUNNY

[wraith marsh]

did you have to do the dc crap to fix it

[sharp owl]

you can't cancel a melee hit

when u look at it

so i accidentally hit it

and the 2 very friendly black men next to it gave me a hug

why the hell does the terminal not let you cancel or charge a hit when you look at it

this is like the 2nd time

the 1st time it fucked me over was when i sledgehammered a terminal in r2e1 and tripped a scout

absolute pain

so we messed up the first zone in stealth, then we used up quite a bit of ammo on the terminal reset, then we messed up the forced stealth zone with the 2 scouts

then we woke up half the shadow zone

literally every mistake

also we cfoamed a door and left a player just outside of it

so we had to break it

[lost lynx]

LMAO

classic

[sharp owl]

amazing performanec

[lost lynx]

top tier GTFO players

[sharp owl]

the only thing we did well is that we didn't miss too much

and i guess we lasted like 1.5 waves in hell with nothing

just stepping between objects to dodge tank and snatcher

[lost lynx]

when i doubt
melee the snatcher

👍

[sharp owl]

you can't

..can you do that?

[lost lynx]

to be honest
i have no idea

its worth to try

[sharp owl]

i don't think it's worth a try

i was just dancing with a snatcher around a pole

it tried to grab me like 3x

then it just gave up and ran away like a coward

[lost lynx]

🤨

[sharp owl]

yeah we were just 🕺 👯‍♂️

you can stagger a snatcher if you hit it with a bat

oh snatcher ignores stagger multis

that's great

[lost lynx]

oh?

[sharp owl]

nope

[lost lynx]

[sharp owl]

that's wrong

[lost lynx]

fuck

[sharp owl]

snatchers ignore stagger multis

it counts straight damage

apparently

i don't like snatchers because you can't really do much to them

they grab you so fast

[junior latch]

shoot them

[lusty river]

Scatter them

[sharp owl]

yeah but like damn man

i aint got time

i need to output 40 damage

it also feels really bad that you lose control as soon as the tentacles fly out

[junior latch]

unless he appears around a corner suddenly outta nowhere thats not necessarily an issue?

[sharp owl]

So far i've found it difficult

[junior latch]

what guns you using for it

[sharp owl]

uhh burst cannon last time

and i dont' remember

[junior latch]

[sharp owl]

machinegun

[junior latch]

burst cannon it

[sharp owl]

i did man

i shot once and then i got vored

1 bullet came out

[lime copper]

poop

[junior latch]

did you only start shooting when it was already on you O.o?

[sharp owl]

i don't have the clip but no

there was like 2 giants and a snatcher

burst the giant, try to burst a snatcher as it flies towards me

and then 1 more as it grabbed me

i need to stop deleting good clips

[wraith marsh]

gotta be more aware of the snatcher

[serene jewel]

feelsbad man

almost got R7C2 PE

but someone had to go and we kept dying at the last scan

so we just had to forgo secondary

[pine root]

Secon day

Is the fastest

Part

By far you could have 2 maned it

[sharp owl]

Do any new players wanna do the r1s in order with me and my friend?

[rose nova]

hello! u can check the LFG channels to share n join lobbies! the instructions are in https://discord.com/channels/408196129470152705/653623062964731920

just some advice!
always ask to not be carried, make sure that everyone joinin ur lobby joins ur voice channel
and in case u havent be sure to do the tutorial first [Training]

[sharp owl]

tried 7e1

was fun

and hard

[rose nova]

:D

[sharp owl]

i love how the name is just pablo

i can't take him seriously

we killed god in r6d1

i sledgehammered hm like 3 times for fun

just to disrespect him

if you do kill pablo does he respawn

has anyone like cheated a kill on him

[lost lynx]

im not sure
but the game spawns 3 different Pablo's through all of R7E1

[sharp owl]

it would take 41666 hours to kill pablo

[lost lynx]

so if you kill one he will just spawn later on

[sharp owl]

if you sledgehammer him every 3 seconds

[lost lynx]

🫃

[sharp owl]

wait actually he's armored

does armor do anything

if i shoot a tank with 1 trillion damage at the front will it do anything

[scarlet lintel]

R8B4 done!!!! Its getting easier now, isnt it?

[lost lynx]

haha

no

[sharp owl]

i mean

yes

b4 secondary is bull

c2 is easier

[lost lynx]

then there is D2

💀

[sharp owl]

pablo is stupid

i just need to roast him publically because it make-a-no sense

[lost lynx]

im gonna eat physical food in front of you

[sharp owl]

we kill leviathan creatures taller than skyscrapers

[junior latch]

Yes its just dmg reduction for a tank there

[sharp owl]

how big is the reduction

ok anyway

pablo stupid we kill a skyscraper of flesh

how touch is this magic namv flesh anyway

i can pierce pablo and hit a sleeper through him with a hel rifle probably

we can swish cheese him

but someone he has plot armor

like if you're gonna make an immortal thing make it an eldritch flesh blob with no form that just absorbs your bullets

don't make it a tank but smaller

because tanks clearly die

[junior latch]

Dependd on the enemy

[sharp owl]

and this asshole has a center of mass so high you can just knock him over and laugh at him for being morbidly obese

what about pablo

[junior latch]

[sharp owl]

i need to know how many sledgehammer hits i need, eva

without damage reduction it takes 5 years to kill a pablo

1.2 years if you have a group of sledgehammers

maybe you can do it in 8 months if you hit him in the back

I'm gonna make a pablo hater religion

or actually more accurately a making fun of him religion

literally push him over

[sharp owl]

what

you know i'm right

pablo isn't meant for this world

anime protagonist plot armor

[sharp owl]

Mods, some rando was griefing our game

[lost lynx]

dm @foggy plank

with proof

[rose nova]

u dont need it but it is recommended

if u just report it as is without a clip or somethin its fine, it can just take a lil longer to act to recompile more info or somethin but its good still

[outer lantern]

pablo has 1 billion

hitpoints

[blissful dome]

You can do it elbow

Pretty disappointed that it happened, costed us the run.

[sharp owl]

Yeah, this guy was actually hacking

spawned in like 8 giants in one r1b2 room

was just fucking with uis

[coarse stump]

Oh, our guy wasn't a hacker, just a disgruntled troll who decided he didn't want to play and wake up the whole room before quitting mid-session.

uh 4 cells, generators, bigs

[worthy flicker]

No wait

R2b2 was easy then

[rose nova]

ah b3

b4?

[worthy flicker]

One of the R2B levels is just

Vape

Everywhere

[lost lynx]

theres like

3

[rose nova]

tbh couldve been b4 or b3

[worthy flicker]

I wanna say 3

[rose nova]

b4 its green b3 its blue

which one

[worthy flicker]

B3, cause 4 wasn't that bad

[lost lynx]

oh R2B2 is the gen with 4 cells

[worthy flicker]

Yeah B2 was easy

[rose nova]

i dont think b3s that bad with the fog, compared to b4 which u literally dive into its fine, some tiles can be funny but like, 2

[worthy flicker]

Only got 5 more levels in R2 tho

[rose nova]

its more bad for being the first uplink

but idk

good luck with those 5 lol

[worthy flicker]

Then onto R3

[coarse stump]

i hate r2 so much haha

[rose nova]

ur not gonna complete r2 before r3, theres an E1

[coarse stump]

R2 is the noobkiller

[lost lynx]

at least R3 is easier

[worthy flicker]

Shouldn't be that bad, just gotta be smart, not over extend

[rose nova]

... theres an E1

lol

[worthy flicker]

I don't believe you tbh

[rose nova]

it is

by a lot

[coarse stump]

actual pain

[lost lynx]

it is

lol

[rose nova]

r3 only has a D1, not a D2 and an E1

[coarse stump]

r2e1 took 44 tries

[rose nova]

jesus

[coarse stump]

[rose nova]

q-q

[worthy flicker]

I'm sure I'll have a grand time then

[lost lynx]

good luck at R2E1

haha

[rose nova]

yeah id suggest if u get stuck at some D tier, just jump to r3

[coarse stump]

r2e1 weeds out the little kiddies from the big adults

[rose nova]

and i say D tier not even the E tier

cause the D tiers fucked too

[lost lynx]

ye

[coarse stump]

r2d1/r2d2 are brutal in their own rights tbh

[rose nova]

...

[coarse stump]

the entirety of r3 is easier than r2d1+

[rose nova]

welp

[worthy flicker]

I'm just ignoring it

[rose nova]

ill remind that person of that every time they post a message now

[rose nova]

well r3d1 holds a candle, and the end of c1

[lost lynx]

did i just saw a slur?

[worthy flicker]

I don't think I've done an E level yet

[obsidian abyss]

someone else said it actually

in meda

[coarse stump]

nah r3 was easy

[obsidian abyss]

i just asssumed it was allowed

[coarse stump]

mothers arent that bad

[rose nova]

ha ha aha ha ha a
i mean kinda but d1 its still hard

the A and b tiers are easy

[worthy flicker]

Tbh as long as it isn't as annoying as R2

[lost lynx]

[worthy flicker]

I'm going for completion if it's there, not wasting my time on stuff tho

[lost lynx]

every rundown is easy just dont do sec

[rose nova]

i think a2 its easy, took me like 2 tries, first one was to know what the fuck to do

[shut vapor]

Damn r4e1 is as easy as r1a1, i had no clue
