who are?

#

the key bot still has keys if you haven't claimed yours yet

somber root
#

@slow sail send the GTFO Bot the following message (using your email address): !key your@email.com alpha

prime hollow
#

I think Ricardo signed up late for the ambassador program maybe? Seeing how that's a new discord account.

vital hemlock
#

They are no more key?

vestal steeple
#

There is still plenty of key

vital hemlock
#

OK because I do the command a'd I didn't see anything special

vestal steeple
#

Do the following in a single message

!key youremail alpha

change youremail for your own personnal ambassador email

vital hemlock
#

I've already done

vestal steeple
#

Could you please DM me what you wrote to the bot please?

vital hemlock
#

Ok

sick horizon
#

@vital hemlock im not sure if this is the case for you but type your email in all lower case

vital hemlock
#

No it's OK the problem is resolved

sick horizon
#

alright Cool have fun playing

flint silo
#

“We will be opening it up to play from oct 28 to nov 2nd”

...is this a typo? It’s oct 29 currently

vital hemlock
#

Thank you @sick horizon

flint silo
#

Nvm they fixed it lmfao

acoustic glacier
#

hehe

#

@flint silo I need sleep 😉

zealous crypt
#

did anyone else get combat music on a loop regardless if there is a fight?

upper stirrup
#

I got it on some try i've done, since i like it, it doesn't bother me :p

stray vessel
#

Due to the Steam-down problem I wasn't able to play it. It was the unluckiest day...

sleek ridge
#

want to talk about some points that affect the atmosphere of the game:

movement - the monsters trigger only to WASD, got up / sat and jumps, you can rotate the mouse 360 degrees, push, reload and switch weapons (the sound is such that it’s scary to yourself) and there will be nothing.

long-range flashlight - I don’t know what the guys have in stock, but why did they bring it into the game for something? (you can dazzle or some other mechanics)

microphone participation in the game - for hardcore fans you can make a setting where the volume level from the microphone is a trigger for monsters

#

😬

vestal steeple
#

There will be pitch black dark room as environmental effect (like the fog room + fog repeller) in other expedition

tepid haven
#

@sleek ridge good to know 🙂

idle roost
#

Guys, do you know if the weapon and tools we had in alpha are going to be expanded with other weapons/tools?

#

There will be other tools to choose?

tepid veldt
#

yes they know

#

😛

idle roost
#

😭

tepid veldt
#

we probably won't get anything new for next alpha

keen blade
#

They only specified it would be with lots of bug fixes. So I'm assuming it's the exact same content we've already done. Just with a longer time-limit and less/new bugs to replace the old/fixed ones. 🙂

#

But who knows, they might surprise us with new little bits and bobs here n there.

upper stirrup
#

i hope they give us more options to stealth

#

its kinda boring having to goo and melee over and over

upbeat vale
#

I would like to see distraction tactics

upper stirrup
#

yeah, that too

upbeat vale
#

Throw a noisemaker into the next room or whatever, ensure you’re all out of the path of the mini swarm

#

Close the door quietly behind em.

#

Would be risky because they’d all be alerted while they move so if you were even within any bit of sightline they’d trigger right to your group.

soft estuary
#

is the alpha over

smoky ridge
#

Hi

soft estuary
#

so has the alpha finished

hardy sand
#

Alpha has been extended to the 2th of November, but servers are down for bug fixes

glossy snow
#

This game runs on unreal 4 right?

dark parrot
#

when will the server open again?

upper stirrup
#

well yes but no

#

this current alpha is closed until the 31st

#

it opens again until the 3rd

dark parrot
#

actually ppl are still streaming it so its still up?

calm sigil
#

it was shut down almost 3 hours ago afaik

restive bay
#

If good players Get The Fuck Out, do bad players Die The Fuck In? 🤔

versed terrace
#

yup

dark pine
#

Will the next event be a differential update? Or do we need to download the entire game again? < /me shakes fist at Unity build engine >

slim lark
#

Just keep the game installed 🙂

upper stirrup
#

it will update

somber root
#

GTFO is built with Unity™

#

@glossy snow

glossy snow
#

no way

slim lark
#

Yes way!

glossy snow
#

no fucking way

somber root
#

It better be Unity! I had to find Unity’s meeting room to play the game at E3 2018!

slim lark
#

Lol

somber root
#

Okay, so Simon showed me the way there.

#

Simon actually makes for a good tour guide! Lol

slim lark
#

Haha

flint silo
#

I’m gonna guess this was already mentioned but the video gameplay that just came out says “Alpha oct 28 to nov 2nd”

dense fjord
#

Apparently that was a mistake

#

The original announcement has been edited with what seem to be the correct dates

acoustic glacier
#

I was way to tired when I wrote that.
Changed it in like a min though 😛

neon aspen
#

killed my hope to keep playing until sunday xD

acoustic glacier
#

haha, yeah.. sorry about that 😉

slim lark
#

Technically soon you literally play till Sunday 😛

Do we have any sort of roadmap anywhere for planned features? Anything like potential character customization, more weapons, weapon customization, or more tools?

Thanks boss

Its a little vague, I dont blame them tho. Hard to make promises rn.

frank igloo
#

The email stated "Once you redeem this Steam Key, the GTFO Alpha will be visible in your Steam Library, but you can’t download/install it yet."

And yet im downloading it

warm mirage
#

that’s because were after the first alpha test

frank igloo
#

Just an old text template left in the email then?

wary needle
#

I am confused. People are #lfg-ing around but my game said alpha is closed until 31th. What are they playing?

warm mirage
#

Some people still have the alpha open and useable

wary needle
#

oh because it count the hours separately?

warm mirage
#

Their games aren't updated to not allow access to the game

wary needle

Yo wtf is amba

a synonym for ambassador

warm mirage

an abbreviation*

upper stirrup

lo

mental hearth
#

God i'm stupid. The whole time i thought that its just another channel since the server is so big

warm mirage
#

it's technically another channel, but it's supposedly just for ambas

but everyone is an amba GWchadThinkeyes

Not true, i've seen a white guy somewhere

nah

#

they fired the shitheads that inserted their shitty political views into articles

#

they could possibly heal up and become a good information source

crisp osprey
#

anyone still playing the game?

warm crescent
#

didnt they already close the alpha ?

warm mirage
#

yeah

warm crescent
#

also a youtuber uploaded a video of him beating the alpha in like 48 minutes world record lol

balmy quarry
#

Hm

#

Longer videos take longer to upload. Hence why it was uploaded after it ended, and also edits if there were any

warm crescent
#

What are your guys overall opinions of the game ? How was it for you ?

balmy quarry
#

0/10, wasn’t home to play it

rugged dew
#

8/10, almost there

warm mirage
#

^

#

It’s missing something, I’m not sure what though

warm crescent
#

More levels ;)

rugged dew
#

The balance is good, the ammo is... almost right, the polish needs to be added (it's in alpha afterall)
and yeah, progression etc will be added later

sleek ridge
#

I began to read the form to fill in the team of moderators, there is so much question......., and for all of them there is one answer........ starbucks unlimited😂 😬 😜

warm crescent
#

Someone mentioned that maybe the alpha was as hard as it was cause the progression was disabled.

rugged dew
#

ehhhhh don't quite think it's that

#

Progression might make it a biiiiit easier for some aspects, but

warm crescent
#

Yeh, same here tbh. I agree with you on the ammo needs a bit more polish and health just a little.

oak rune
#

this expedition was medium tier difficulty

rugged dew
#

the health packs needs to be slightly less stingy, or the basic enemies need to do very slightly less damage ya

hollow creek
#

I had a great time with it, didn’t think stuff was too scarce. My group almost made it out but they took a wrong turn and forgot where to go when running to evac.

#

One thing I did was refuse to heal until at an alarm door since you regen up to 20%, so you can take a few ranged hits and one melee hit

bold laurel
#

Oh in fact we can still playing

hollow creek
#

So it really saved a lot of supplies

#

I think my only issues with it were that the mine layer and pistol felt bad compared to the other choices

rugged dew
#

mine layer is trash against solo enemies, but remember - horizontal mines

#

you want that laser being a trip, not a vertical stand-over

hollow creek
#

Yeah but the sentry was way more useful at the alarm doors.

rugged dew
#

I mean

hollow creek
#

I’d prefer one or two foams and two or three sentries in my teams

rugged dew
#

mine can take out a whole cluster of enemies though

hollow creek
#

And so can the sentries if in the right spot

#

Its preference, but I definitely think its stronger than the mines.

rugged dew
#

instantly is the key

hollow creek
#

Foam is without a doubt my favorite though.

rugged dew
#

oh yah, foam is great

#

c-foam grenades especially

#

"I don't want that moving, right now"

mental hearth
#

1 bio, and either 2 mines and 1 sentry or the other way around

#

But that loadout just because we found a load of c foam grenades in our runs

#

So many in fact that we wouldnt have had the use for the launcher once

hollow creek
#

In my closest run that ended at evac we didn’t even use the scanner

mental hearth
#

Well and we ended the run sucessfully and i used the thing the entire time 😄

rugged dew
#

scanner is great, but it needs a bit more power to be the 'viable choice' as it were

hollow creek
#

I mean I’m not saying its bad, just not the most optimal choice.

rugged dew
#

at least, in this mission

hollow creek
#

And yes that

rugged dew
#

There will be other missions with whole blackout sections where scanner will be CORE

hollow creek
#

Different missions may need other stuff

#

Exactly my thinking. I really like all the tools other than the mine

#

But for a lot of maps I’d just stick with foam and sentries.

rugged dew
#

you know what's fun though? C-foam a door when a horde spawns past it
set up a single mine at the door

#

Watch as it gets X+1 kills and the horde is gone

#

strats!

mental hearth
#

Exactly what we're doing during every security alarm

hollow creek
#

I feel like my mine guy just sucked with placement

rugged dew
#

oh, yah... that doesn't help lol

mental hearth
#

Just place it at the door

hollow creek
#

Its not hard I know

rugged dew
#

I had to point out to my friend that tried mines first that he could just.. put it on the wall...

mental hearth
#

Our first mine use was a double kill...

rugged dew
#

...he thought it was a trash tool because the enemies weren't WALKING OVER THEM

mental hearth
#

Killed 2 teammates 😄

hollow creek
#

Oh boy

rugged dew
#

oh, I had a laugh when I tried the mine

hollow creek
#

For the first alarm door I foam up every door with the nades since we stealthed the rest of the rooms

rugged dew
#

We got far in, I put it down then said "hey guys watch this" right next to them

#

and hit it with hammer

#

Then, when they laughed out of relief, I shot it :)

mental hearth
#

A buddy foamed the door to the first room after spawn and cleared every enemy except for 2 with a single mine

#

That mine killed at least 10 or so

hollow creek
#

I’ll give it more consideration. I just really like double sentry so I may ditch the scanner

#

So foam two sentry one mine

rugged dew
#

double sentry is gooood if you have c-foam

hollow creek
#

I love how the enemies get stuck in the foam too

rugged dew
#

you can sometimes get away with zero c-foam gun just cus of the nades though

mental hearth
#

I just love holding the scanner and playing eyes for my team ^^

rugged dew
#

oh ya

#

And stopping and being like

hollow creek
#

Hey I’m not saying the scanner is bad, it just isn’t really necessary

rugged dew
#

"0 metres, that's in the fucking room man!"

mental hearth
#

Also helps to avoid a lot of battles (especially if you dont have any fog repellant)

rugged dew
#

fog repellers are not for seeing enemies

mental hearth
#

We saw about 2 in the room but my scanner said 7

rugged dew
#

They're for the wonderful DONK sound when they bounce

hollow creek
#

I got really good at cleaning rooms with the hammer with no detection so I’m not worried about the fog

rugged dew
#

well yah, but that doesn't always work

hollow creek
#

Sure, scouts are a thing

rugged dew
#

kill the one 'solo' enemy that you can see

#

his four friends 5 inches around the corner get angry

mental hearth
#

your 3 friends behind you get angry at you

hollow creek
#

I did find that if you kill it fast enough the rest won’t wake up, so I’d often sprint and kill 2-3 at a time. It does work.

rugged dew
#

works brilliantly until one takes more than one hit to kill

mental hearth
#

I mean we did that too, but i wouldnt want to risk it 40 minutes into the run

hollow creek
#

Sure.

rugged dew
#

or a sleeper gets angry, or a big lad gets stompy

#

and...yeah

mental hearth
#

better safe then sorry

hollow creek
#

What do y’all think about gun loadouts?

rugged dew
#

pistol is hot trash, can't put down big lads for shit lol

hollow creek
#

I felt the same way. Everything else I liked other than the revolver but that is definitely preference

rugged dew
#

the revolver can actually put in some work if you place your shots right

#

panic-spraying the big lad up close did a LOT of damage

mental hearth
#

I like the pistol :c

hollow creek
#

Like I said, preference. I prefer the shotgun or sniper instead depending on what I want.

rugged dew
#

pistol is great for normal enemies

mental hearth
#

if you have it mixed up a little one guy with a pistol can be pretty good

#

but the 4 pistols / 4 revolvers squad was also fun aint gonna lie

undone acorn
#

Probably the most common loadout I saw was smg and shotgun

upper stirrup
#

hi all

#

good evening

undone acorn
#

Hello

#

hows you evening going?

upper stirrup
#

great

#

peace and quiet finnaly

undone acorn
#

aw I know that feeling

hollow creek
#

It felt to me like a sniper was pretty much mandatory if your luck was bad @undone acorn

#

Since it will 1shot the scouts

upper stirrup
#

Unless you are me, who manages to miss the headshot and shoot the Scout in the shoulder when it's literally a few meters away lmao

#

truth be told i was never really a big fan of the payday franchise so when one of my friends got me to sign up for ambassador program i was hesitant but needed games to play with them anyway

i'm so glad i like this game this time around, its very difficult and feels like coop matters a lot more and the hordes of enemies feel more manageable without reducing difficulty so danke devs

#

Happy that tomorrow i will be able to play

balmy quarry

Sad that I won’t play tomorrow

But in the weekend you will play with me!

probably discord lagging and thought it didn't send when it did

so hey there is apparently a glitch to get into GTFO? rite..?

slim lark
#

just wait for 15 hours, lol.

upper stirrup
#

ok lmao

#

but is there?

warm mirage
#

yeah there is but I'd reccomend against it

#

it's much easier just to wait until tomorrow

I’m the third. Is there any prize for this?

#

When will it go live again? Tonight at midnight, or tomorrow at 7am PDT?

#

today if its 31st already

#

for me its 31st 0:39

Thursday 7AM PDT to ack 7 AM PDT Sunday

normal wren
#

the alpha?

#

it is already live again i thought

upper stirrup
#

no

warm mirage
#

It's not live. People have found a way to get around the screen that says "The alpha is closed" and are playing it. I'd reccomend not doing that however, and waiting for tomorrows bug fixes @normal wren.

upper stirrup
#

To play we just sneak through a lobby :p

normal wren
#

ahh fair enough then haha

upbeat ridge
#

How did they do it?

balmy quarry
#

Invite I think o:

upbeat ridge
#

Well, it was till you killed the game

#

Now you can't even make a lobby, unless I am thinking wrong :thonk:

upper stirrup
#

At first, some didn't closed the game after the alpha, and then they invited some more players, thoses can invites others players and that continue :p

upbeat ridge
#

Are there still people that can play or not anymore?

upper stirrup
#

If you are invited in a lobby, you can leave and open your own lobby for your friends or others asking for a lobby

slim lark
#

Please just wait for 13 hours and 40 minutes. 🙂

upper stirrup
#

There is ^^ , some are on vocal chan below us, and many are on there own discord/vocal server

warm mirage
#

I'd still reccomend waiting for the bug patches tomorrow though.

upbeat ridge
#

Do we have any tips for now?

#

It's still fun to play with buvs

upper stirrup
#

What kind of tips ? Like be patient and wait the update for the bug fix ? :p

upbeat ridge
#

For example I want to experience ladder bug myself

#

No, I was thinking about how to get past 1st key card door

upper stirrup
#

oooh

whole terrace
#

GTFO will get an founders edition or something like that?

upbeat ridge
#

Tbh I would use ladder animation bug as a feature, when you celebrate a successful expedition for example, imagine that conga line

#

First thing I thought about when I've seen it was "spy crab" from TF2

slim lark
#

@whole terrace We have no Information about that, yet. 🙂

whole terrace
#

Im really excited to play the game, the gameplay that they released some days ago made me want to play the game as soon as possible

slim lark
#

We all are 😄

whole terrace
#

I got like 3 School tests tomorrow and more 4 tests in the friday, but i dont mind stop my studies to play the game

slim lark
#

I'm taking Unity certifications "exams" some day this week 😄

#

Ohhhh

#

Good for me that the Alpha starts right when my School ends, so i wont lose a lot of time

I will get to play when I get home from work tomorrow.

Guys

#

Does anyone know when the alpha is open again? It says 12 hrs on a countdown.. 😦

warm mirage

#

Fkkkk i wanted to play tonight 😦

I am curious to know what are the fixes, anyone know?

candid ridge

We have been blessed with a patch

slim lark
#

@random shore I think there are patch notes in the game.

pine vessel
#

didn't get update and already restarted steam 4 times

#

help anyone?

cloud kite
#

Verify game files or try starting the game

random shore
#

To increase more the performance power, is it better to use the TAA or the FXAA_HIGHPERFORMANCE?

mild wyvern
#

Well.... That would be the high performance option.

random shore
#

which one?

#

Because TAA is the first option, logic want that the first one is the lowest that gain more performance (Low > Med > High > ecc..) but since there is also the FXAA high performance... i am not so sure about THIS particular option

upper stirrup
#

where do i go to update to the new aphia

earnest orbit
#

Should update automatically. If it doesn't, restart Steam and see if that works

upper stirrup
#

ok i double check

#

should it still say 1.0

#

@earnest orbit

earnest orbit
#

Where? In steam?

upper stirrup
#

in game

earnest orbit
#

I don't think so. Are you able to start the game?

upper stirrup
#

yes

earnest orbit
#

Are you able to connect to rundown, etc when it's started, or are you stuck in a screen saying the alpha is temporarily closed?

upper stirrup
#

yeah i was in a lobby by myself

earnest orbit
#

Then the game should be updated. If you want to make sure, restart the game and check if you see the new changelog when the game boots.

upper stirrup
#

ok i try i just redownloaded it

earnest orbit
#

ok

#

Ping me if it doesn't work and I'll try to help :)

upper stirrup
#

ok cool will do

glossy snow
#

Where does game store the crashlogs

upper stirrup
#

@earnest orbit are the lobby open for anyone to join or do i need to invite people

earnest orbit
#

You can only join/invite steam friends. If you don't have anyone to play with I recommend checking one of the lfg-channels in the discord. Lots of helpful and friendly people looking to play!

rich moon
#

please help, i can't play because it says i need to have an online connection

earnest orbit
#

@rich moon That bug should be fixed by now. Make sure you have a stable connection. If you do, try restarting steam and/or your PC to see if that fixes it. If it doesn't please leave a bug report at #bug-reporting

Yes, there will be plenty more objective and different expedition. This first alpha test is but a tiny taste of what 10CC have in store for GTFO . And there is only one expedition for this alpha test with limited weapon / tool / monster / etc.... The map layout is the same, but the enemy placement, item and objective location are randomly generated. @unique creek

Question... is there a "proximity" setting of some sort, where even if you swing and one-shot the sleepers, the ones around you wake up?

#

I can't find any sort of pattern to identify why occassionally it fails.

quick glen
#

@obtuse rampart There are 2 main points to this,
1 - Yes its proximity based and hit one close to another will cause it to awaken
2 - If one is in (larger distance) and in LoS but is glowing at the time you kill, it will also awaken

half bison
#

If you kill one within like 2~ characters distance from another one it can alert them even if they're asleep. If they're "looking" at another one and you kill it they can aggro from just over the full length of one of the double wide doors.

#

The awake aggro range is biggg

tight quest
#

wake up already you damn sleepers

#

why'd you tag that man?

@half bison

no, team coordinated takedowns

If you organize right your team can basically do each room in a sweep as long as your tracker is decent

well not including scouts or whatever they're called with the tentacles for heads.

@hollow mural you came to the Security scan event last attempt, and then retried and got there again?

unfortunately we havent got back there

acoustic glacier

But the round before, how far did you come? 🙂

#

or was it the first try?

hollow mural
#

oh we had found and scanned the HSU

#

once we scanned the HSU it cut straight to the survive screen. we think it may be because we put sentry down at the extraction point before the scan

oak rune
#

Did you put it where the scan point is at the base of the elevator or further up in the hallway somewhere?

summer stirrup
#

We had 3 sentries

#

I dont know where everyone placed em exactly

#

we mostly put them at the base tho

hollow mural

i believe one was at the elevator and one was further up the hallway

#

@oak rune lenny was another team member

#

did you see the progress bar at all showing a security scan going on?

for the hsu not extraction

its more bug research

crisp grail

exactly but you have people posting reviews already!, its like DUHH!

#

oh anyone know the best way to kill a scout creature( tendrils monster)?

hollow mural
#

sniper when the tendrils are retracted

crisp grail
#

cool

#

we tried stealth mallet jobs but it a bit hit and miss lol

vapid elbow
#

Just gotta fully charge

#

And clear all the small ones in its path

young jewel
#

The scouts are so wonky to me right now

#

One attempt was with a shotgun point blank - didn't work. Another had sniper to the head - didn't work. 2x charged hammer strikes from steath? No effect. One final one, we had the entire team sneak up on it and just unload with lmgs. Still called the horde.

#

Dunno if this is lag or glitchy hitboxes or something, but in 10+ attempts, we have never managed to successfully kill a scout before it calls.

oak rune
#

make sure you hit it's head with the snipe shot, and not anywhere else. When its tentacles are out, their head tilts forward. If you don't get a kill instantly, then it will go to an immunity faze while it calls for backup, which is why it won't take any damage while blue.

young jewel
#

it will go to an immunity faze
... Ok that's bullshit. But thanks for the info, that explains a lot.

nocturne bronze
#

not bs

#

the games is easy anyway

#

where is the hardcore part if not an immume creature

slim lark
#

Hah.

half bison
#

If your really worried about setting them off just make sure someone has cfoam

young jewel
#

Yeah, when we saw a scout, we'd always set up c-foam and a pair of sentry guns in preparation. We play around that, but it would be nice to be able to not be forced to use the sniper there. You can kill the sleepers after they're alerted before they scream, you should be able to do that with the scout too.

gilded skiff
#

Considering the huge ass horde the Scout can call that can screw up a run so easily, a little more counterplay than one specific gun couldn't possibly hurt.

nocturne bronze
#

they are bosses

#

why should u kill them with no effort
0 sense

gilded skiff
#

I didn't mean to say anything about making them a cakewalk, just questioning if the current balance of Scouts is fine.

#

I could be wrong, I'm simply pondering here

vapid elbow
#

Stealth is counterplay

young jewel
#

I actually submitted that as a bug report because I can't see it as being any other way. Every other monster has a brief time between 'awake' and 'screaming' that lets you kill them, but not the scout. Additionally, the scout has a super long, visible windup animation, which has to serve some purpose. Either it's to warn you that a swarm is coming, in which case it's way too short and would be better served by just delaying the swarm by 10 seconds to let you get ready, or to let you kill it and fix your fuckup. Even the other big, tanky guys that can one-shot you don't have i-frames in their animations.

#

There's simply no precedent for it. Everything else has similar features/behavior to it, but without the invincibility. It can't be intentional, because if it was, the devs would have applied that to everything else.

vapid elbow
#

It's intentional but it could have been handled a little better

half bison
#

Nah, scout invincibility is intended design, your supposed to deal with it BEFORE setting it off

#

I’d throw that over in suggestions instead

young jewel
#

Then they need to shorten the hell out of that animation so that, even if there are i-frames, it isn't so glaringly obvious. In every other game out there, a giant wind-up animation either means "Get out of the way" or "Kill it fast". Since it agros the entire map, we can't get out of the way, which leaves us to 'kill it fast'

#

Which we can't do.

half bison
#

Again the idea is you don’t set it off in the first place. The counter play would simply be not fucking it up :P

gilded skiff
#

That's fair, and it's obvious that's the intention behind the Scouts.

half bison
#

You can 1 shot snipe it, cgun or cfoam grenade it, or sneak up and 1 shot with melee. You’ve got plenty of options

gilded skiff
#

Wait, it can be one shot with melee?

half bison
#

They don’t have much health surprisingly

#

Oh hell yeah, they’re not buff like the other two large enemies

young jewel
#

I've never successfully melee'd a scout

gilded skiff
#

That didn't seem obvious, surprisingly

half bison
#

It wasn’t to me until someone told me in chat how to deal with them

young jewel
#

whats this about the cfoam on it? Never heard that one

half bison
#

Cfoam freezes them allowing free kills

#

A grenade or full gun charge works

gilded skiff
#

And they also can be foamed without alarming them, you say?

young jewel
#

That needs to be added to the description of c-foam stuff

#

I never tried that because I only knew the 'slow-down' and 'barricade' functions of them

half bison
#

Fun stuff, you can also deal with big guys with cfoam if you have a full group, freeze him and have everyone start wailing on it at the same time. They die before the unfreeze

gilded skiff
#

Foam does freeze enemies. Didn't know there were so many ways to get around Scout besides sneaking and sniping.

half bison
#

I’m not sure if it would work with 3 people though

gilded skiff
#

That's a lot of useful information. Thank you so much!

young jewel
#

Don't even need to freeze them. A team of 3 or 4, all charged can kill the big guys in one, maybe two swings

half bison
#

I figured that a good beat down should’ve able to take them out, we’ve never had a situation where just running up without freezing would be possible

gilded skiff
#

The big boys hit like a truck, but they can be taken out without foam. That's how my friends and I deal with them

#

But it might be best to use foam if there's more than one.

#

Also, isn't sealing doors with the foam gun a little too costly? A full charge doesn't cut it.

vapid elbow
#

It doesn't actually need to be entirely foamed

#

Those little blips block attacks too

young jewel
#

Now that I think about it, do mines oneshot scouts too? If you stick on in its patrol

vapid elbow
#

Never tried it

#

brb

young jewel
#

I still maintain that there should be some method of catching a fumble, since every other monster has one, but if mines work so it isn't just 'Use sniper rifle' or 'git gud', that's at least a step in the right direction.

hollow creek
#

@young jewel I saw a guy earlier recommend doing it, but with how much more....satisfying it is to melee them I haven't actually tried it.

young jewel
#

Noted. I'll keep that in mind for next time.

vapid elbow
#

Ok so mines don't aggro enemies at all

#

But I had to use 2 to kill the scout

#

Overall 2/10, would just melee instead

#

But maybe it's a thing for taking out big un's """"""Stealthily""""""

half bison
#

Getting a good melee in feels great

mild torrent
#

1 mine is needed to kill scout but he must stand on it

Having played the game now together with some friends I'd like to give the devs some feedback :D. We made several attempts and after ~10 attempts we successfully completed the extraction and man it was a ride.

At first you think "What the actual Fuck?!?", but after some trial and error and getting better at the game, working out strategies etc. this first impression turns into a rush of emotions. Each time getting further and further.

I really hope that future work put into the game stays at the level I got to experience with my friends in the alpha. Other large companies put out "finished" games that look far worse and are full of bugs with a personal of over 500 people and you 9 guys managed to deliver a gameplay experience that was so smooth and surprisingly bug free with a technical alpha 😂 Absolutely amazing!

We four guys all agreed without hesitation that we will buy the game once it's finally available on the market. That has been the first time since years that a 4 player coop game demanded REAL strategy and teamplay other than "just run and gun".

My friends and I all played last night for ~3 hours and even though we didn't finish the mission we all had a lot of fun. Kinda curious where the alpha mission lies on the range of difficulties, since it proved to be quite challenging and most of us have played a fair number of shooter and stealth games.

I don't know how this game slipped under my radar up until a friend told me about it yesterday, ever since I've been playing non stop on the alpha, getting in as much time as I can before it closes, for an alpha. this game is in credit smooth running, the graphics and the enemy's scare the hell out of you and it's surprisingly bug free. If the game just gets more polished with more levels as time goes on, I'm definitely going to be buying it.

#

Have the devs considered changing how the fog works so repellers don't stay pointless until mid-late game?

#

Also either remove, or repurpose long range flashlights. They're useless because how excessive their effects are, and how much of a hindrance they would be traversing a facility full of light sensitive monsters.

mild wyvern
#

Maybe there's a shadow monster that only dies when properly lit up?

bleak plank
#

long range flashlight is a tool of mass destruction if your team get held up somewhere

#

Makes it easy for everyone to see them coming

gilded skiff
#

Radars and turrets already do a pretty nice job to cover that.

bleak plank
#

turrets do run out of ammo easily, and radars don't help much when you need to click on their heads for them to actually die

#

flashlights do not get your team killed, careless use of them gets your team killed

gilded skiff
#

Careless use of any of the fire arms gets your team killed. Flashlights can't kill for shit.

mild wyvern
#

Shoot one. Close the door. Cfoam it. Put up a landmine. Profit.

#

You win. Barely any rounds used. Only one landmine and one cfoam grenade. Or a foam launcher I guess.

bleak plank
#

with that said, it would be nice if those long range flashlights could be placed on the ground

yup it'd be a nice easy solution to give them a proper use

Ive noticed alot in the final room of zone 16 that the little divider between the 2 sections is still like a door where when you agro one side, the other doesn't agro with it idk if that's a bug or not but it usually makes the double scout chance more bearable

I should've tested how good/bad hammering Scouts is even if it was solo when I had a chance. Anyone that has, are there hitbox problems with them? I heard someone tried it with a fully charged swing and no cigar.

I've had exactly that happen to me twice, but other times the entire head just pops off.

Pretty sure their heads are bugged overall sometimes.

i'm pretty sure you can get them solo if you hit the head

It seems pretty inconsistent right now

What are the most effective guns against a big lad? I tried sniper and this guy eats 3 shots and just keeps walking at me, even with their head blown off

I'm assuming foaming them first would be the safer way to get them.

half bison

If you have foam yeah, you can just ice them up and safely do whatever to them

Shotgun works for me to wear down the giants.

#

I've been running the same loadout (safe for switching sentry for foam gun) up until now.

#

I foam and you can one shot melee when you foam em

#

Or 1 sniper shot. Their head hitbox is just fucked I think right now

btw it feels a little doo doo that you have to spread the foam all over the doors to seal them, instead of having a set amount of foam needed to be applied.

That's sweet, but my problem wasn't if they were soloable, I was asking how bad their head collisions are when hitting them with a hammer.

astral berry
#

next time i do a run and have a chance i'll help test that for you then

hollow creek
#

Their hitboxes aren't that bad.

#

Its pretty consistent to smack their heads even while crouched

gilded skiff
#

I'd rather test it myself since that's why I signed here for 😅 but that's lovely of you to compromise, thanks.

astral berry
#

of course and if you decide you want a hand just ping me

gilded skiff
#

Even if they aren't that bad, it's always worth checking, specially since alerting a Scout is such a big deal.

astral berry
#

for sure

mild wyvern
#

@gilded skiff Sometimes, they just don't die to a headshot with the hammer that's fully charged. Take another swing just in case.

gilded skiff
#

Are you implying you get a second chance after hitting them once? Is that a thing?

astral berry
#

if your really quick you can tap them again before they go invincible

gilded skiff
#

Huh, good to know. Still, them not dying in one hit might be an inconsistency, but I wouldn't know.

astral berry
#

yea its random it just happens every now and then with the hammer so good to keep in mind whenever going for that

knotty drum
#

is there a difference in melee weapons?

upper stirrup
#

is there any most reliable methods of killing the scout??

#

i neeeeeeds some help

oak rune
#

@upper stirrup headshot with sniper

#

@knotty drum visual looks

upper stirrup
#

got it, thank you! does that also work for the big boys?

#

when popping the scouts head does that only work when his feelers are retracted? or can you pop him either way

oak rune
#

The tentacles don't have collision so you can shoot through them

#

The big boys will take more than a headshot to kill

upper stirrup
#

a friend and i tried to double melee the big boys, didnt work

oak rune
#

I think it takes 4 people fully charged hammer

half bison
#

Big boy is 4 people fully charged and sometimes an extra hit or two. Scouts are best dealt with via Sniper, or cfoam, OR mine layer if your desperate

#

But i figure the devs will probably make the mine explosion not quite so silent in the future :P

night kernel
#

Peg the Scouts with a C-Foam grenade then crush his skull with a charged hammer.

You can peg enemies with C-Foam grenades without aggroing anything; the same can be done with the launcher. Interestingly enough, this does not cause aggro at all -- not on nearby enemies, nor on the afflicted enemy. The afflicted enemy will not aggro even after "unfreezing"/after the duration of the foam.

hollow creek
#

This is true, but most of the time it isn't really worth going for unless the scout is in an area with like 15-20 guys around him.

half bison
#

or double scout.

knotty drum
#

how many charged hammer shots to the scout head does it take

balmy quarry
#

With a team of 3-4, probably like 3 hits or so

#

I think it’s 2?

hollow creek
#

The scout? 1.

gaunt flame
#

Surely its not 1. We tried it a few times always was 2

hollow creek
#

The scout is one fully charged hit to the head, every time.

#

It becomes invulnerable to damage if it survives a hit until it calls for help

astral berry
#

yea if you hit it in the head full charge befor it triggers it'll kill

rugged dew
#

rather than 'before it triggers', don't you mean 'before it starts charging'?

#

because those few seconds of trying to melee an invul scout count

dire pine
#

Good to know that, easier to kill than me and my squadmates tought. We always set up traps for them, with sentry guns and all. We were being extra careful, matching the timing, so that 2 players sneaked up behind the big fellows for simultaneous smashing

when did they have a new alpha or beta ?

oh thank you

upper stirrup
#

How would I report a but after the alpha is closed?.. I was gonna go back for another run to take some screenshots but I couldn’t get another chance.

half bison
#

Just do it without the screenshots

upper stirrup
#

aaaa but it’s a bit hard when I don’t remember the zone I was in..

#

It was a spot where you could jump up and if you weren’t careful, you’d slip between crates and the cave walls, completely stuck with no way out

random shore
#

Sigh... no more matches... T.T i hope we can have an expanded version soon

My friend caught a little funny moment in the game where my character froze for a solid moment in the climbing position

It was hilarious

not sure about that tbh

you can join and get keys, yes

#

You can't play though.

upper stirrup
#

Ok thks

#

Cus some of my pals would want to sign up...

desert snow
#

Interestingly I had an issue that was bothering me and jsut realised it seems to vary on everyones screenshots

#

A second layer of text duplicated faded behind at different distances from the front layer

balmy quarry
#

Seems normal

astral berry
#

yea that seems to sort of be their style

dire pine
#

Like a faded 3D effect on the UI, right? That's normal.

tepid nova
#

Is it a bug if you’re in the after part of the security check and the alarm sounds the sleepers can’t hurt you at all I stood there for a solid moment tbaging the ground stupidly while my friend laid a short distance away downed

#

Last game of the night for us^ it was kinda funny too but unsure if that was suppose to happen or if it was a bug -it went back to normal after I stepped out of the circle kinda like the Sea bear lol/

#

Well, I joined the ambassador program yesterday, but I think currently are no keys available...;)

astral berry
#

the current playtest ended you were just a little too late for this one

silk gyro
#

Warning! Joining Late. No Alpha Keys. [ Unintelligible]

balmy quarry
#

They’ll probably give them out again during the uhhh Beta testing

arctic cedar
#

Yeah, I read that I was a little too late. Unfortunately I saw the hint on the Alpha test only yesterday. Too bad - I am really looking forward to the first practical impressions;)

#

Hi. How do you get a key?

I'm pretty sure you can anymore because the testing ended.

There's also the roadmap you can follow.

#

Waiting then for early in december ..

astral berry
#

there may also be a playtest again before then we don't know but looks like we have a good chance considering what was said in #the-warden

spark geode
#

After seeing that post I don't feel so bad about barely going past the initial security alarm

astral berry
#

yea for most of it was alot struggling to clear once then a few teams just clearing again and again and again

young belfry
#

well, then you also have to include the people who did a run over and over and over again just because they wanted to be able to clear it solo

#

also guilty of that, but I didnt fully clear it

#

I am fairly certain every person who did a solo run, has at least 25 runs of not making it.

hollow creek
#

I played it way more than I’d like to admit. After finishing my solo I did it like 40 times with randoms

My PC's not supposed to be able to run this game but, on low settings, my machine did quite well and no crashes!

Anyway, completely hyped up for this game; close friend and I were bored and I remembered I had more keys to the Alpha, I gifted her one and... we had a blast! She doesn't stop asking me when the game's coming out so we can play. 😅

upper stirrup
#

It’s addicting for sure

#

And well optimized for an alpha. I had no crashing issues whatsoever. A few audio issues here and there, but nothing to prevent me from loving the game.

pure canopy
#

😅

narrow creek
#

Bugs are to be expected.

#

If the game lacks bugs during the Alpha, that's a sign that the game will be quite successful in the future.

#

Perhaps.

#

Base building didn't just work. 😠

Would you like to buy a base building pack for 60 USD? It includes a single set, with 2 different walls, 2 different floors, and 2 different doors.

#

Yes,

Oh, and some shitty lights.

#

And no windows.

@sacred stump It’s possible that PCs that don’t meet the minimum specs listed will run the game fine. At this point, the listed specs are just an educated guess based on some low spec internal testing.

#

I’m running a 1050Ti with an i7-7700HQ (laptop) and I can run full settings and get over 60fps at 1080p.

shy hatch
#

Because it's only Alpha, maybe in future they will make better graphics and textures.

somber root
#

I honestly think graphically, the game already looks pretty polished (but maybe I’m biased?)

#

I don’t know how noticeable people found it during the alpha this past weekend, but the eggs/potatoes were gone, replaced by actual blood splatter.

the game looks great even on medium/low

Cool creation

Allows you to stream your steam games anywhere on your phone to play

Cons - pc must be on to be able to stream to your phone ( mine allows it to stream while on stand by mode )
Pros- play anything thats installed on your steam!
(also good for trolling people at home thinking the pc is playing on its own)
