the Double Bop-it Rifle confirmed for R9

[neon jolt]

any advice for the main keyed security door in R1C2? 2 out of 4 runs (with bots) the charger waves have spawned on the door either with on 1 of the 3 shotgun sentries I've put down or I move some sentries to a door and the next wave spawns on the other door. the spawns of the scans aren't helping as they're going to the worst spots (half upstairs half downstairs for example)
I can get through the entire level up to that point perfectly fine

slightly frustrating tbh

[winged turtle]

Shotgun centuries are good at holding off waves of smalls, and much less effective against chargers. If you have a bought on bio tracker, then snipers entries are going to work wonders for you against those chargers

Also, you get so much tool in the last zone or two before extraction, that if you bring seafoam launcher and minds you can have a ton of mines and seafoam to spare for around the room after covering every door for the final alarm

[neon jolt]

in that room? snipers?

it's worth a shot since shotguns seem to give me more reasons not to use them more I do lol

[winged turtle]

Trippple sniper sentry is probably the way though

ya the sight lines are not perfect, burst sentries will def be fine

[neon jolt]

one funny thing did happen with a c foam nade where I told one of the bots to use it on a door I was looking at and because he was like 5 miles away he just used it there on a random wall

[winged turtle]

but with the bots on bio, and aiming sentries at the bottom of the ladder, snipers can excel

[icy cave]

Burst will also do the trick. I would just mine and foam all doors. there's like 5

No guarantee they spawn behind a new one every time tho

[winged turtle]

foam/mine def works, and spray the excess errwhere

[neon jolt]

yeah on the first alarm door I put a mine on one of the close doors but they decided to come from the door way to the left cause, idk ai reasons

[icy cave]

excess on the ladder

[neon jolt]

so I'm convinced that run had it out for me

[winged turtle]

SH!

[winged turtle]

some so!

[icy cave]

AI forced them on the ladder

[winged turtle]

just gotta try again

[neon jolt]

yeah that ladder thing is weird

[winged turtle]

ehh with bots i guess you can start doing that whenever, but when you play with humans try not to do that cheese, try to just shoot instead

[icy cave]

If you put a lot of foam on it, it wil basically stop the whole wave.

temporarely obv

[tardy ingot]

Id rather recommend mines + double sentry + bio

mines make smart setup work well

[winged turtle]

true, tho no cfoam will mean each mine only grabs 3-4 chargers that alarm starts chill and ramps up iirc

[icy cave]

Wut? they'll still gang up on the door and kaboom

[winged turtle]

i am remembering that the first wave spawn or two are reduced, minimizing the impact of mines

[tardy ingot]

nah it will kill ~7-10 enemies

they pile up quick enough

you dont need for them to wipe it all

do first alarm (or both side zones at once if you wanna do that) with open doors no mines

sentries clean house wirh 1 pathing direction

then for class 4 ending place all mines on doors and sentry split up

boom, easy

[glad grove]

What guns do you recommend for later levels? Are shotguns the way to go when dealing with the spawncapped sleepers or are machine guns the option.

[minor fractal]

Whatever guns best suit the situation.

The type of encounter and enemy composition has a lot of influence, and most guns are pretty strong.

[icy cave]

sawed off reigns supreme

[minor fractal]

Most

[neon gust]

^

[little dirge]

cant wait to try it on r4e1 🤯

[icy cave]

Can you follow @neon gust 's example and be the silent one?

[tardy ingot]

Oh boy you are gonna have fun soon

:^ )

[glad grove]

;-;

[ocean spindle]

:D

[minor fractal]

Generally, CQC best suits standard alarms due to variable terrain, and stuff like reactors favors precision weapons.

MGs can fill both roles, though.

[tardy ingot]

combat shotgun my beloved

[winged turtle]

being a MG player, trying Hel Shotgun on a random A level felt really really bad, it is definitely a sometimes food.

is Combat Shotgun a pretty versatile weapon?

[little dirge]

dunno maybe i am using the combat shotgun wrong but its so a$$

[cold quarry]

most are good choices, personally i'd say to avoid the bullpup rifle and precision rifle for harder levels

[minor fractal]

CS is somewhat difficult to play

[heady moat]

it has 69 total ammo 🙏

[minor fractal]

but it's super potent.

[little dirge]

dunno i run hel shotty almost every lvl even on e1

[minor fractal]

Its eco is a little ridiculous rn, it's the most efficient special in the game for strikers.

Its one-tap range is also surprisingly long.

[winged turtle]

hmm worth practicing with, i really need to try changing up my play style, i always want to play as a portable sentry

[little dirge]

hmm a friend of mine said just aim for the head around the range they start licking you and its one hit but dunno it sometimes is sometimes isnt even when full on head

[cold quarry]

it's a bit awkward because it has a duckbill so it's horizontal spread

[little dirge]

hmm interesting maybe i should try it out more

[minor fractal]

I tend to prefer CS in specific scenarios over others, personally. R4B1 and R4B2 come to mind. Lots of close angles or twists and turns to deal with.

[minor fractal]

The aim on it is a bit precise since you're aiming a cone and not a single point. It's not even that bad if you have to two-tap, though, that's the thing. It just turns into pump shotgun on demand.

[tardy ingot]

yep basically that

if i get the time it rains 1 taps

[civic wave]

Combat shotgun is super good, yeah

[tardy ingot]

but spamming it out to stop waves in their tracks while getting 2 taps (with occasional 1 and 3 taps) is rly good

[civic wave]

between having the ability to 1 tap, stagger a fair amount of enemies, and all that stuff

[tardy ingot]

imo (hel shotty aside) the best close range defensive weapon rn

veruta being 2nd imo

i love me some hel shotty/combat shotty dual loadout at times

very fun to stop a surge

[minor fractal]

All of the strongest Specials in general are able to do a lot situationally.

CS gives you options, MGs give you options.

[dry pumice]

guys, quick question

how many cells are there supposed to be on R4B1?...

[latent obsidian]

4 I reckon

[winged turtle]

4 exactly

[dry pumice]

3 for main objective and 4th for?...

[latent obsidian]

Extreme

Or I think for a resource zone, maybe?

[winged turtle]

4th cell is for secondary or resource zone past main bulkhead. having to choose being the tension

[dry pumice]

right

we're stupiod then

[tardy ingot]

either you do main only but get access to a ressource zone

or secondary

[winged turtle]

nah, just made an oopsie, no big deal

[cinder storm]

Hey, is there a good place to learn as a new player what rundowns are ? Me and my buddy heard they rotate with time or something but it's quite hard to get a grasp around, lots of arbitrary terminology with no explanations in-game

Thanks in advance

[dry pumice]

that's gone mate

they went back on that

we are currently in "re-release" phase of the game

[civic wave]

let's start from the top

[ocean spindle]

i got this i got a copy paste

soo this game used to work like fortnite seasons
when Rundown 2 came out, it replaced Rundown 1, Rundown 3 replaced Rundown 2 and so on, everytime a new rundown came the old one got eliminated
on Rundown 7 tho, the devs decided to bring the old rundowns back, and they did it the ALT://Rundowns, the old rundowns but slightly changed and optimized
and so next up they need to release ALT://Rundown 5

[civic wave]

A "rundown" is a set of missions
The ALT:// Rundowns are reprisals of old missions
you can currently play ALT:// Rundowns 1-4, and Rundown 7
We will receie ALT:// Rundowns 5 and 6, and then receive Rundown 8

[winged turtle]

mind if i appropriate this?

[ocean spindle]

u go and plagiarize it :D

[cinder storm]

Thanks guys

[tardy ingot]

dont forget to make it so if you read the first letter of each sentence it will say „spear is bad“

[tropic vine]

oh :(

[cinder storm]

quick questions, can bots aggro mobs xD?

[arctic marten]

very rarely, usually no

[dry pumice]

No. They are completely invisible to mobs for the most part. They can bump into them and even shoot guns on top of their heads and it does nothing.

The only condition in which they can wake up something is if they open fire and accidentally hit something else.

[ocean spindle]

but even so that happened to me once

and its super rare

[arctic marten]

they can also set off spitters which can wake things up as well

[dry pumice]

Sigh.
No, they don't. Spitters are incapable of waking up things. Thankfully.

[winged turtle]

So Rundowns used to work like Fortnite seasons. Previous rundowns got removed when a new one came out. Even some weapons got removed when rundowns changed. After Rundown 7 however they reversed that. Released after R7 was ALT://R1. Instead of removing the previous rundown this ALT only added to the game. Some changes are made to these ALTs. But they are mostly remasters of the old rundowns. And they just came out with ALT R4 so now we are waiting on ALT R5. Don't play spear.

[winged turtle]

i didn't know bots could set off spitters, that feels wrong tho

[ocean spindle]

oh my god

[cinder storm]

wait is spear bad ?

[ocean spindle]

we just

need the change the endin

OH MY GOD KSMKMKDS

[cinder storm]

cuz I'm using it rn KEKW

[ocean spindle]

um

yes :3

spear is bad

[cinder storm]

[past mesa]

Finally you are becoming based

[ocean spindle]

no shush

bat supremacy

[sturdy glen]

some progress is progress

[dry pumice]

It very unfortunately is. Hammer is just a superior option in every way that matters.

[past mesa]

One day slendo will be speedrunning

We can make it happen

Make one more toxic gtfo chatter

[past mesa]

It is perfectly useable but the game slows down a lot and you don’t have the most options once shit hits the fan

If spear didn’t use stamina to charge it would be better

[dry pumice]

Compared to hammer spear has:

• Extra attack range
• SLIGHTLY more damage on headshots

• Lower bodyshot damage
• Lower stagger
• You can't spring while charging it (Spear is the only weapon to have that downside)
• It is currently the ONLY melee weapon that consumes stamina on shove attack

[past mesa]

Bat and hammer consume stam on shove

Knife doesn’t

[dry pumice]

I swear to god Darkeva tested it and confiredm that spear is the only one to do that

Unless devs changed it

[past mesa]

Just look at the data blocks

They all have values in that box

[heady moat]

It has a slightly faster charge than the sledgehammer (like 0.05s faster)

[past mesa]

0.0 .125 .5 .5

They don’t reset stam cooldown

But they all share that trait

Just like light hit doesn’t cost or reset cooldown

[dry pumice]

Anyway.
Basically hammer can: sprint while charging AND it oneshots biters on fully charged hit no matter where.
Spear will require a headshot or backstab, enemy will survive a frontal body stab otherwise.

Hammer can also stunlock people by spamming light attacks.

Bat (Kovac Peacekeeper) is basically 2nd best melee. Its basically smaller hammer.
And knife is... Something somethihg stealth extra damage? Literally an anti-small stealth weapon. You can go on mad killstreaks with that thing.
But the second you find a big boy - you're in trouble. You'll have to call your big brothers for help, or just reach for the gun.

[winged turtle]

honestly, don't worry about it until you got a few scout melee kills under you belt, then after that, try switching to hammer. hammer has the highest skill ceiling by a big enough margin that you should practice with it

[cinder storm]

oh yeah the fucking scouts

worst of the worst lol

we just failed a rundown due to foggy rooms :C

you basically can't see shit

I remember playing a few months ago, you could remove the fog through a command or smth

but no sight of that in that mission

so I guess we just have to deal with it

[dry pumice]

scouts is the one thing spear is kinda good for - the attack hitbox is reliable and the chance of missing and hitting the thing anywhere but head is lower

[jagged shore]

aight
i'ma be that guy
and this is just pedantics
but rundowns are sets of levels
an individual level isn't a rundown, it's an expedition

[cinder storm]

Thanks senpai

jesus I'm cringe

but thanks, will remember

[jagged shore]

lmao
i didn't care until you said that second part

[dry pumice]

That depends on a mission from mission. Some missions are kind enough to provide terminals with commands for air filtration.
Majority provide you with either deployable Fog Repellers or Fog Turbines (needs to be carried by someone).
Some very edgy levels don't provide you with anything, have fun with no eyesight

[spark wolf]

senpai

[soft crater]

papa

shit imean

Wesley-kun

[vague bridge]

does IIx syringe amplify environmental damage

[tropic vine]

i would assume so

[spark wolf]

i dont think it does

[tropic vine]

well it takes 3 fully charged hammer swings to break down a door right? if it does affect environmental damage you should be able to break down a door with 1 swing

[vague bridge]

whats a hammer

whos that

[tropic vine]

yes

[verbal zinc]

Gorlami

[turbid horizon]

i read this as salami

[cinder storm]

Guys, if I list all items within a zone, and it shows me both a locker and for example, an ammopack, does it mean there are 2 different things in the room, or will the ammopack be in the locker even though it's listed seperately ?

asking cuz I got a list of lockers and supplies

[cold quarry]

everything has a seperate tracker

[cinder storm]

and dunno if I should look at the lockers

[cold quarry]

the supplies can be -in- the lockers

if you list a zone and ONLY get boxes/lockers, they don't contain any packs but might have tools like glowsticks or c-foams that the computers don't track

[cinder storm]

So lockers themselves are useless during tracking

For the most part

at least

[cold quarry]

yeah

[cinder storm]

aight thanks mate

[cold quarry]

unless you're trying to track down a locker that had a c-foam grenade or something, and you don't remember exactly where it is

[ocean spindle]

if i want u can also LIST RESOURCES/RES ZONE_ZZZ

to make it so only ammo medi n tool appears

[shrewd dirge]

spear is the only weapon i will gamble with a melee on a slope/stairs.

[cinder storm]

do alt rundowns not have checkpoints 😭 ?

we died at the extract

[noble sierra]

Checkpoints introduced since R6

[cinder storm]

yeah but I thought they touched up the rundowns when reintroducing them

oh well

skill issue

[low willow]

They have touched them up, but they said something about not adding checkpoints to levels that didn't already have them

[lost flame]

Don't need checkpoints anyway since they're so short

R7 makes sense because they're longer, and if you're still opposed to use them you're encouraged to not use them in fact

[meager grove]

are there any guides on beating R1C1? we have been stuck on wit for about 7 attempts now.

[mossy aurora]

what tool/guns are you bringing to it

and where are you holding?

[meager grove]

dont remember the exact names of each weapon but...
P1: DMR / Heavy assault rifle / Bio Tracker / Sledge
P2: Burst rifle* / Precision Rifle / Auto Turret / Sledge
P3: ??? / ??? / Burst turret / Knife
P4: ??? / ??? / Burst Turret / Sledge

We set up in the hallway before reactor, 2 sentries on the right and one on the left, 2 people to a side.
We make it to wave 7/8 and then completely run out of tool ammo / health

We might drop the bio tracker next time but then thats more tool refills we need to use

[meager grove]

I'll get the names of the other 2 when they get back

[mossy aurora]

none of the sentries you brought benefit from bio symbiosis, if you bring 2 sniper sentries + 1 burst you will get a lot more tool efficiency out of them

[amber spindle]

DMR/Heavy assault rifle ain’t great guns for the situation.

Not ammo efficient not great at hoarde clear

[mossy aurora]

and if you hold one room out, the room with the bridge with the hole in the wall, you are closer to resources, still close enough to make it to the terminal to input the command, and dont have to hold 2 sides

[amber spindle]

Try staggering turrets as well. Don’t drop all 3 round one

[meager grove]

what weapon combos do you recommended?

[amber spindle]

For me personally, I’d be going Caribine, and machine gun

[craggy pier]

Bullpup precision

[mossy aurora]

dmr/hevy assault is fine as long as you arent missing all your shots

but something to deal with the giants and hybrids would be nice

[meager grove]

hehe about that, but i never ran out of ammo

[amber spindle]

hevy assault rifle just feels like a worse machine gun idk

[mossy aurora]

the main drawbacks of those guns is ammo efficiency otherwise they are strong

[amber spindle]

^^

[meager grove]

cool i'll write all this down 👍

[amber spindle]

2 sniper + 1 burst + bio was exactly what I did to complete R1 C1 as well

[mossy aurora]

2 sniepr + shotgun sentry might be better now after the shotgun sentry buff

im not sure though

[amber spindle]

If your feeling spicy you can also have one player run near the front at the start to have the wave spawn directly behind them. Delaying it a decent 20 secs

it can result in a down, but if it works it’s nice

[tardy ingot]

shotgun sentry is good if you need it to stop something in exchange for insane tool cost

With the sight lines it will just make a heavy ammo/tool imbalance

on a reactor*

imo all of 3 burst to 2 sniper 1 burst works

Tho id probably recommend 1 sniper, 2 burst after sniper sentry nerf

[mossy aurora]

there are spots on r1c1 where it would have very short sightlines

[tardy ingot]

yeah (like the hole) but the tool cost probably isnt worth the increased stopping power

[tardy ingot]

you dont want to delay the waves. Reactors always spawn the full wave

[tardy ingot]

Also why i wouldnt recommend stagger weapons (that arent meant to kill)

[mossy aurora]

he meant stagger them like dont place them next to each other or at the same time

not staggering (autosentry) turrets

[soft kiln]

Only if auto sentry can target multiple as once

[mossy aurora]

hel autosentry next patch?

[soft kiln]

At least it could do its job properly

[tardy ingot]

oh mb

[amber spindle]

💀

[tardy ingot]

am stoopid

[amber spindle]

If I wanted stagger weapons

[tardy ingot]

hel pp, auto sentry r1c1 only

[amber spindle]

Yep xd

And batt ofc

[tardy ingot]

but you can only tap

no charging

[amber spindle]

Bonk

Honestly it is just better knife

[tardy ingot]

mmh

id rather have knife if i wanted to go fast on smalls

[amber spindle]

True

[tardy ingot]

Also

bat be the only melee that cant ever 1 tap giants

[amber spindle]

It’s all great until you see something bigger than a scout

[tardy ingot]

without boosters

while knife can

[amber spindle]

Can it?

[tardy ingot]

yep

[bleak pecan]

Knife has precision multis

[tardy ingot]

as long as enemy is asleep

[amber spindle]

One shot a giant head shot?

[tardy ingot]

occi with iix yep

[amber spindle]

Honestly

Hammer my beloved

[bleak pecan]

Bat does highest stagger tho, essentially every swing stuns

[amber spindle]

I struggle to switch off hammer

[tardy ingot]

it doesnt even do that (unless you mean light stagger)

[bleak pecan]

yeah that

[tardy ingot]

light stagger bat has the best (doing 15 stagger from 3 dmg)

[amber spindle]

Hammer lights stagger pretty good to

[tardy ingot]

charged hammer does 100 (from 20 dmg) while bat does 60

[tardy ingot]

is ok

[amber spindle]

It’s enough to solo a giant

Enough for me

[tardy ingot]

yea nah you wont be able to solo a giant when tapping it with a hammer

while keeping it staggered

[amber spindle]

We’ll Charge Light Charge Light

Back off on charges and use cover

[tardy ingot]

why would you light hit

just keep charging to ~70%

[bleak pecan]

hammer charges fast enough to keep giants permastunned so long as you target unbroken limbs

[amber spindle]

For the bonkies

[tardy ingot]

until game decided you broke 4 so now you cant do it anymore

[amber spindle]

4 limb shots kill a giant at roughly 70%

First being 100% ofc

Right?

[tardy ingot]

only with back dmg

[amber spindle]

Head :0

Pop

[tardy ingot]

50% bonus on first hit

from front thats 10

[bleak pecan]

hitting back breaks head also

[tardy ingot]

more like neck

and iirc that makes an invisible unbreakable head

@past mesa you know more about this than i do

[past mesa]

yes

[amber spindle]

I just wish there heads wouldn’t pop xd

[solemn flint]

1 question

how do u perform a reload cancel and a gun switch but gun still aim?

[mossy aurora]

what do u mean "gun switch but gun still aim"

[weary mesa]

Do you mean shoot right away after switch

[solemn flint]

yes

[weary mesa]

ads cancelling

[solemn flint]

how to do that?

[weary mesa]

you left click

[solemn flint]

just left click?

[weary mesa]

damn

I don't know directions

it's right

[mossy aurora]

normally theres a slight delay between when you pull out your weapon and when you can shoot. you can shorten this delay by adsing (right clicking) after you pull out your gun

[weary mesa]

Don't do it on shotguns tho

[mossy aurora]

[solemn flint]

do u use scroll wheel on the mouse or u press the number to change guns?

[mossy aurora]

i use shove

so for hel revolver, the sequence i press is r -> c -> 2 -> right click -> shoot

[solemn flint]

this is harder than i expect

[weary mesa]

Also depends on what you want to do you can switch to another gun to use that one's ammo or do what Ryk does to continue fast use of the one you're already using

[solemn flint]

especially im not use to pressing number to change weapon

[weary mesa]

Reload into shove then back to gun is the fast iirc

[mossy aurora]

i used to reload cancel by scrolling down then up again that was quite tedious

[weary mesa]

Switching to other equipment is slightly slower

[solemn flint]

also, how do u manage statima while in combat state?

[mossy aurora]

dont jump, walk around corners when you can

also if you dont have any terrain you can use and you are out of stam, just turn around and walk backwards, some enemies will get intimidated and you can just shoot to stagger the ones that run up to attack while you regen stam

[solemn flint]

thanks alot

[tardy ingot]

to remember

Sprinting, jumping and doing any kind of charged melee hit (not knife) stops your stamina from regenerating

Oh and shoving with spear

[solemn flint]

so i just need to be efficent with my pathing and no excess runnong right?

that sound hard enough

[tardy ingot]

also try to not go above 145 if you care about going fast

[dry pumice]

So, what's general consensus on buffed shotgun sentry?
In my experience it seems to finally work somewhat properly, especially with bioping.

I can trust that thing with my life.
...
Until i take a wrong step and receive a shell up the ass.

[icy cave]

It kinda works. still sucks tool as hard as a Mountain goat

[solemn flint]

dont trust the sentry

it is evil

[signal radish]

uhhh guys how do they get the orange colour of HF Pather 90?

the black is not good looking to me

[lusty bramble]

There's a color setting option when you select the mask

[dry pumice]

Advice: ignore Beep and D1 creep face guy. They always say something insane.

Are we talking about the new gasmask? The one you receive from beating the whole rundown?
... Then you can't. The orange tiger variant was an event exclusive reward during the year of the tiger back in R6. Unless they bring it back - you'll never get it.

For what it's worth I think the tigris variant is edgy as hell and I can't stand it.

[ocean tapir]

Is the hsu pod alarm infinite or just really long?

[dry pumice]

Which one of the many

[fierce nebula]

there are error alarms you cannot turn off

[dry pumice]

Some alarms are indeed infinite. Run for your life, shoot everything that moves (except teammates, unless they bunny hop).

[ocean tapir]

The pod on R1A1

[dry pumice]

Infinite then. Run.

[ocean spindle]

it is infinite once u pick it up

[dry pumice]

There's no pick ups in R1A1, you scan near an HSU

[ocean spindle]

u pick up a dna sample u plateface

[dry pumice]

Me confused

[solemn flint]

hehee

shoot ur teammate hmm

copy that

[ocean spindle]

Security clearance for section B needed. DNA sample will suffice.
u go to the hsu to pick a dna sample

[dry pumice]

Technically I guess? You don't actually carry it in your hands.

[solemn flint]

i now have insurance for shoot ur team butt

hehee

[latent obsidian]

you just put it in your jacket pocket its not very heavy

DNA is really small its even smaller than a glowstick

[dry pumice]

Unless I forgot

[ocean spindle]

no u dont grab it like a cell but u pick it up

[dry pumice]

Semantics then.

[solemn flint]

dna sample is store in glass vial

really delicate glass vial

with 1 bullet shot in the butt

hehee

[latent obsidian]

if a sleeper breaks your vial you should have to go back and get another one

[hardy grotto]

It’s true

[arctic marten]

artek called me a creep face

[hardy grotto]

maybe he wouldn’t be so insane if people would teach him how to use the precision rifle

it’s always been his life goal

His dream

[arctic marten]

I already showed him tho

[hardy grotto]

But because he can’t use it he has to be a shotgun user

[hardy grotto]

You’re bad

[arctic marten]

no, I just showed him how to switch to the shotgun

[hardy grotto]

Then you’re part of the problem

you know you’re crushing his dreams like

Breaking his heart

[arctic marten]

I had to

he was spawning hunter choppers and bouncy balls

and it was lagging the server

[hardy grotto]

He was just trying to have fun

[arctic marten]

he was abusing admin privelages

how do i solve this problem

[arctic marten]

yes

very much

[limpid tulip]

it's really annoying having half my screen covered

It goes away

[limpid tulip]

nah it sticks till the end

even after i restart the game

[vague bridge]

wha

[ocean spindle]

we cant see the image but i guess its liquid bug right

it should fix itself after 5 minutes

[limpid tulip]

idk is it a FOV problem or what but what ever i do it just wont go away

pretty much my equipment and literally everything that is attached to me just clipped right through my camera

like my hand is floating waaaaaaaaay out of place when i hold my melee

[spark wolf]

its your apparel

use a different torso

[limpid tulip]

aight hope that will help

oh yeeeeeeeeeeah it is lol

thanks

so SMC cut model I is the problem

[dry pumice]

Yes. New apparel was undercooked - they forgot some scripts. They will fix it next patch.

[limpid tulip]

aight so it's all good now let's just hope there won't be anymore bugged clothing in the future lol

[cloud fox]

There will be, don't you worry :^)

[fierce nebula]

hello everybody

Hello again. Need something?

[fierce nebula]

no

[craggy pier]

he's so real for that

[frigid carbon]

What's the proper way to type that I'm brand new and lookin' for a group? "LFG Brand New(No Unlocks Yet) doesn't seem to get any bites.

[craggy pier]

say "lfg I have 1k hrs in the game and have cleared every level solo"

[fierce nebula]

2k hrs*

[craggy pier]

even better

[past mesa]

Link your discord voice chat level you are playing and lobby code

[frigid carbon]

That was all greek to me.

[fierce nebula]

yeah it is usually
LFG [level] [vc chat link] [lobby code]

[past mesa]

Are you in a voice chat

[frigid carbon]

no

[past mesa]

Join one

Doesn’t matter the number just make sure no one is there

[frigid carbon]

alright. Joined one. What's level?

[past mesa]

On the discord voice chat there will be a little plus person thing

That is the link to the voice chat

[civic wave]

The expedition/mission/level you're going to host

[past mesa]

Pretty much what your playing

[frigid carbon]

ah

[past mesa]

So r1a1 is the first level of the game

[civic wave]

If its A1 from rundown 1, it would be R1A1

[past mesa]

You can probs start with that or

[frigid carbon]

For some reason I was thinking level as in like operator rank or something

[past mesa]

R7a1

No worries

[past mesa]

So if you type the voice chat your in and the level you want to do it will probably get players

So lfg VC 32 r1a1

[frigid carbon]

are there any levels or level groups people tend to stay away from/play the most?

[past mesa]

Yes but for now you need to start at the a teir levels

You will not enjoy yourself in anything higher tbh

[frigid carbon]

doesn't look like it'd let me play anything else until I completed all the tier 1 stuff

[past mesa]

You can get taxied into the level

But it won’t be fun

[frigid carbon]

So say people join my discord channel, how do we match up in-game? Just queue for the same level through the in-game matchmaking?

[jagged shore]

no
they can join you with the lobby code you post

[past mesa]

They will show you how to do that in voice

Dw

[frigid carbon]

okay. And do I need to be a certain level in the discord before I can see other lfg channels? Beginner is all that's available to me

[past mesa]

Umm idk tbh didn’t go through the new on-boarding system

[fierce nebula]

not entirely sure either, too OG myself

[civic wave]

Scroll to the top of the channel list

[winged turtle]

uhhh you Have to go to the very top of the channels list to Channels and roles, and you either have to unselect all of the interests, or select all of the interests

[civic wave]

There should be a roles and channels menu or something idk

[winged turtle]

If you leave some unselected, they will not show up for you at all in anyway no matter what

[civic wave]

Click onto it and scroll into there, it's a funny thing

[dry pumice]

Is there any main at the moment capable of oneshoting a scout?

Under realistic condistions of course.

No stabbing the barrel down scout's throat.

[civic wave]

I think hel shotgun is the only one that would have the damage to one shot without boosters, but I'm not sure

[winged turtle]

is inserting the barrel into the scouts mouth not realistic?

there was a couple, someone else listed it out

[upper ginkgo]

most reliable main scout kill is probably dmr double occiput shot, but that's not one shot

[past mesa]

Everyone forgets about hel shotty

😭

[dry pumice]

What about auto pp

Tips for R2D2? (I hate reactor missions)

[upper ginkgo]

shoot the bad guys and don't let the bots take your ammo

[next socket]

The bots are more ammo efficient than I am 🥴

[cloud fox]

I never played much of OG R4/R5. Which was harder?

[civic wave]

all I can really suggest is to take sentries + bio, know where you're going, and don't fuck up

[next socket]

I think my problem is that I am putting down triple sentries and running out of tool ammo very quickly

[winged turtle]

defending north or South of the reactor puts your back to a wall, but means nothing is sneaking ip behind you

[verbal zinc]

take a 4th sentry

[civic wave]

yeah you definitely don't need 3 sentries down all the time

or yeah take a 4th sentry to effectively have more tool ammo

[verbal zinc]

🧠

[next socket]

Each time I run out of tool ammo and we immediately get overrun

I thought we were getting overrun because I wasn't using sniper to get rid of bigs

But that wasn't it 😛

[winged turtle]

its aprox. 2 additional tool uses, big gains

[verbal zinc]

try 4 auto sentries because they have the most bullets

[next socket]

But the bots cheat with bio track 😛

[hardy grotto]

u should run sniper sentries, they dont use any tool

[civic wave]

well if you need cheats to win a mission then you shouldn't be playing

[winged turtle]

and stagger is good for big waves, gives the bots more time to shoot

[verbal zinc]

i found out this cool new trick where you can save resources by knifing the waves

[winged turtle]

autosentry is 👑

[verbal zinc]

i can highly recommend

[dry pumice]

quadro auto sentry

[winged turtle]

might only work with the flame buff tho

[dry pumice]

they dont waste ammo and your bullpup has time to reload

yes, iam insane, thank for asking

[next socket]

This works great until the bots run with you and melee standing still, ultimately getting absolutely fricked

And then as soon as one takes damage they all immediately start healing each other in the middle of the wave

[civic wave]

how did you clear r4d1 again

[past mesa]

What is we knifed all reactor wave’s together

🥺

[next socket]

I used pmother skip by backwards bhop through the zone door

Can we play r4d1 melee only

With secondary

Pls pls pls

[civic wave]

what could possibly go wrong

[ocean tapir]

What is precision damage?

[past mesa]

Headshot dmg

[ocean tapir]

Guessing it stacks with the enemy headshot multiplier

[past mesa]

Yeah

[civic wave]

yeah, precision damage is a result of the base damage, precision multiplier of the gun, and the headshot multiplier of the enemy

dmg x precision multiplier x headshot multiplier

[past mesa]

• base dmg

For the total dmg

[sage knot]

I wouldn't do R2D2 with 3 bots, it's doable, but annoying coz you have to do all the looting and running back and forth. In terms of tools, 3 sniper sentries and one bio is no brainer. Sniper sentries one shot hybrids and chip big strikers heavily and they benefit from bot bio as well which is OP. Defend in 196 closing east/west door and leave mid open, place sentries accordingly

[minor fractal]

Leave every single box and locker in the reactor closed until you actually need it.

Pulling rooms for speed is probably the play much of the time.

[past mesa]

R2d2 with bots sounds miserable

[next socket]

You underestimate my ability to have fun playing GTFO

(Except reactor missions, FUCK reactor missions they can eat my booty)

They follow you around, they consume resources in a weird way, they block shots at times, etc.

I just don't like them.

[winged turtle]

they switch between Melee and ranged seemingly at random at the worst times

[past mesa]

They bait out giant melee

Don’t get in scans

Honestly actually

Pubs are a lot like bots

[next socket]

Bot pros: They cheat with the bioscanner and have extremely good ammo efficiency with the right weapons

bot cons: suicide

[minor fractal]

Some pubs are a lot like bots, that is true.

[ocean tapir]

How do they cheat with the bio?

[past mesa]

They just ping everything on map

[minor fractal]

Especially if you get 3 people that are moving around as a blob.

[next socket]

They ping with perfect efficiency

[main dagger]

the player bioscanner ping is directional, the bot's ping is every direction

Do you guys think Heavy Rifle's description of "medium to long range" still fair?

[noble sierra]

Hel gun is described as "medium range" and it out-ranged HAR, so no

[dry pumice]

yeah, that's my thoughts too... Ever since nerfs its basically close-to-medium range more like. You spray at close, you tap at mid... I guess you can try tapping at long, but really - might as well just get closer

[cold quarry]

i swear i heard this af ew days ago

Does anyone know what the Audio buffer in R3C1 does? I believe its in zone 10

It's not limited to R3C1. I think I heard someone say once that it means the terminal has an audio log on it.

[rustic kestrel]

Thoughts on auto sentry vs burst?

[ocean spindle]

auto sentry and burst arent really comparable
auto sentry has big stagger

[low willow]

Auto sentry is purely for stagger

[ocean spindle]

its made for trickilin down enemies from a wave and not really doin dmg

[low willow]

Burst sentry is more or less a solid sentry for any purpose

[rustic kestrel]

Tysm

[low willow]

The auto sentry will deal an entire 0.71 damage or so (I don't think they changed that) while burst sentry will deal 2.01 each shot

The auto sentry does do like 8x stagger damage, which is nice, but you're probably better off with a burst sentry

Especially because the auto sentry constantly shooting but rarely killing anything will make it burn through tool refills

[past mesa]

Especially cause killing sleepers is just staggering them for a longer time.

[low willow]

Yeah I've never actually seen the end of that stagger animation

[gusty aurora]

this may be a dumb question, but what does it mean when it says ive completed "main" on a stage but not "secondary" or "overload"? I'm very new, only done one stage. if this is on a wiki page somewhere I can go read that, but it didnt come up on google lol so links appreciated

[ocean spindle]

so in a missions theres always the Main objective, but there could [not always] be a Secondary objective, an aditional mission to put it in a simple way
there could also be a terciary mission! another optional missions called Overload
they only appear currently in rundown 4 and 7, so if ur startin out u dont have to worry about em

but basically they are just extra stuff u can do on a level, they give more difficulty since they make the level harder or longer or somethin

[tender pond]

hi everyone quick question can knife one hit kill a scout ?

[gusty aurora]

okay cool. Thank you! I assume its obvious when these are present? like you get the same MSGCAT message as a main objective

[gusty aurora]

thoughts on burst vs sniper?

[ocean spindle]

it can it the back of the head, but its a bit hard to pull off

[tender pond]

i see i thought someone was using hack @.@

thanks

[ocean spindle]

sniper is a lot, slower, it has way more dmg and can oneshot smalls, but generally needs long corridors and a biotracker to really be worth
burst even if it doesnt have a lot of range n stuff it does good dmg to smols, even if it does struggle a bit on big ones

both are good, burst is generally just more useful cause

[gusty aurora]

👍

[ocean spindle]

there isnt a lot of levels where u get long range or a lot of big guys to do dmg

[ocean spindle]

ah uh pls report em to @uneven gulch with all the details if u would b so kind
and if u can get proof itll b appreciated

[tender pond]

sure thanks for the detail, that why i want to ask first is it possible

[silver fable]

15m is long range in practice in gtfo, so more-or-less yes

recoil can be a mitigating factor in range, but current har recoil feels like more of a skill issue than a meaningful range impediment

[sturdy glen]

you can tap it pretty fast at any range

theres not many spots where going full auto is necessary

[silver fable]

I probably only feel the need to spray into bigs or hordes at range with har anyway, both of which make for large targets that are easy to spray into

to the point about hel gun, game can say whatever the hell it wants, but its dropoff starts at 15m and in practice it's highly effective at long range

[sturdy glen]

the in game stuff is overall just kinda

not good?

its WAY too generalized and range in literally every game is always dumb

[storm flint]

ok so

i picked up cargo for the first mission in rundown 2

[heady moat]

Okay, so serious question: did Rundown 7's non-main sectors actually grant cosmetics or not? And, if so, does anyone remember how unlocks worked for non-main sectors in R7?

I've found out how R6's unlock system worked (with a total of 60 cosmetic unlocks counting the current R7 system (one for each main iirc) and all of R6 under the old system). However, if R7 worked on a 'cosmetic for each main and non-main sector' thing, that brings the current cosmetic unlock opportunity count to 68 - which poses a bit of a problem, seeing as the current expanded random drop pool (as of now) only has enough cosmetics for 61 ~~or 62, depending on the actual status of the Twin Barrel Blade Visor Mark I) unlocks.

so yeah if anyone does remember, mind letting me know? thanks.

[silver fable]

they did grant cosmetics previously, but the system was changed when the alt rundowns came out

memory's hazy, but I think it used to be milestones like "complete 3 secondaries" and whatnot

[heady moat]

I have found out what the R6 old system was, but not the R7 old system.

[minor fractal]

There might have been stuff for 2 Secondaries and stuff, but the main unlocks were specific items from a special lab set that were associated w/ all Mains, all Secondaries, and all Overloads.

[silver fable]

apparently a number of the past rundowns not having optionals inspired them to change the drip goals to just level completions

[fierce nebula]

doing secondary and overload did grant cosmetics
but when Alt R1 came out they changed their mind

[heady moat]

Do you remember what the names of those cosmetics were?

[minor fractal]

I'll check...

[heady moat]

ty (also lmk if they're on https://gtfo.fandom.com/wiki/Apparel or not)

[silver fable]

To my knowledge, when they changed the r7 system, they preserved the amount of cosmetics attainable for r7 completions

[heady moat]

makes sense (and the numbers would check out if that is the case)

[minor fractal]

-Storax Kimble Mark I (Mask)
-Kovac Dragonscale Model I (Torso)
-KDS Ray Proto Cage (Backpack)

[silver fable]

though thinking about what you might need to do to ensure that, I'm not sure how they managed it

I believe there was always a cosmetic rewards menu, I guess they would've just changed the objectives written in the boxes

[heady moat]

dragonscale is definitely in the random drop pool nowadays (I know from experience), so I guess that the KDS ray probably is as well

[minor fractal]

Is the 61-62 pre-patch or post-patch? Because I believe this issue is at least supposed to be resolved.

[heady moat]

current pool is 61-62 (post-patch), assuming that we have everything on the wiki now

[minor fractal]

For context, the old pool ran out at exactly R4A1.

[minor fractal]

Ngl, I'm pretty sure this was a cost saving measure.

[heady moat]

48 unlock opportunities with that one, 33 (R7-R3) + 15 (R6) checks out

welp, that probably solves it I think

ty

[silver fable]

less bespoke reward system coding to write?

[minor fractal]

P much. They'd have to implement two separate reward systems that work in the current Alt setup.

But it's a lot easier to just scrap the R6 and R7 mechanics in favor of a catch-all "every Main + a full rundown reward).

[silver fable]

makes sense

Matchmaking is dead because nobody uses it except new players who are unaware of how dead is.
Local LFG channels is the only way to properly experience this game. Aside from having friends.

[gentle pilot]

Does it make sense to remove my progress for r4 if I didn't get only 2 items?

[dry pumice]

How much bodyshot damage spear deals again on full charge? 17 or something?

[craggy pier]

17.5

you'd know that if you were a trve spear enthusiast

[icy cave]

reset, get the two you missed and redo the rundown

[dry pumice]

I prefer to avoid getting into numberjerk, but I need to know how much boosters I need to unfuck it

[craggy pier]

use hammer dumbass

[icy cave]

why you torture yourself m8 😦

[dry pumice]

Im a metaphob

[icy cave]

how far you at now in R4?

[dry pumice]

I hate using "the best" tools. Feels dirty.

Attempted B2, yesterday. Didn't work out.

[icy cave]

you'll be glad to hear that on R4E1 PR was actually good

[craggy pier]

its def not bad

[icy cave]

cause you needto run AND charge your shot :/

[dry pumice]

We put the cells in, had 2 daggers and no biotracker.

[craggy pier]

dagger

[icy cave]

ah no, no cells. do ovl THEN plug in all cells at the same time

[craggy pier]

what he said

[icy cave]

but if this becomes the go to? is it then meta for that map? and then @dry pumice suddenly will refuse to use it?

but then use it on other maps cause its out of meta ?

[dry pumice]

Niche =/= meta.
If it works that one time, but is utter shit all other time compared to some godly jack of all trades who doesn't care either way - then its acceptable.

[icy cave]

ok so not going to those lengths

[dry pumice]

Yes. Just irrational hate for the golden boys.

[icy cave]

fair enough

I respect that

[dry pumice]

M16/ak47 pair in CS.
CAR in Titanfall.
Daedalus on Sven in DOTA 2.
Large aoe weapons in warframe (they got nerfed thankfully).
Uh... What else is there...

[icy cave]

my dear Ak 😦

[weary mesa]

Didn’t mention AWP

[dry pumice]

Eh

Doesn't work in my hands. Same as titanfall's kraber. They deserved that one.

That's more so me not playing what I can't play to begin with.

My favorite sniper rifle in TF2 is a goddamn Sydney sleeper.

That says it all, really.

Heavy/Assault cross class with Vengeance torso in Phoenix Point.

That's an obscure one.

Sol in Guilty Gear. I never played a fighting game on my life, but I already hate him.

[next socket]

Can the spear still hit multiple enemies?

[craggy pier]

no

🥹

[next socket]

L

[craggy pier]

well yes but not like it used to

[dry pumice]

Too much effort to pull it off. Couldn't do it once.
...
Still worst melee.
Balance be hard.

[next socket]

idk spear is still bae for scouts

[dry pumice]

And just for chill

Forget SHIFT supremacy - just power walk around with kill after kill. It's cathartic.

[next socket]

I could be 6 drinks in and still have no problem with scouts

[next socket]

Knife for when I am out for blood

Spear for when I am trying to roleplay a walk on a beach

[dry pumice]

The weapon of the civilised

[ashen frigate]

An elegant weapon for a more civilized age

[silver junco]

Hello! Is anyone else having problems connecting with their steam friends in the lobby with the latest update. We've tried inviting and accepting both with the code and by "Invite" in the lobby and even though we get the steam notifications, nothing seems to work : (

[stuck charm]

How do I put a power cell in a generator?

We are stuck on r4b1

[jagged shore]

hold the cell in your hand and go up to it, you'll get a prompt to enter it
haven't played that level though, might be possible it's like another level where there are a lot of generators and only certain ones are open that you can put them into

[stuck charm]

we're not getting a prompt to put them in the generator. only to drop them

[cold quarry]

make sure it's the right generator. some have sealed ports

to indicate you're at the wrong one

[jagged shore]

yeah wrong ones have a grey covering on the front

[stuck charm]

appreciate it

[winged turtle]

you should not be able to put the cell into the incorrect generator.

but bugs can happen, double check the number matches the objective stack just in case

[feral cliff]

question

can u softlock urself in r4b1

if u use a cell on the wrong gen?

[past mesa]

Yes

But you shouldn’t be able

[winged turtle]

you shouldn't be able to. You should have three for Maine and then the fourth one you either use to complete secondary, or get a resources zone in Maine.

[feral cliff]

yeah we used one in secondary

and then used two in 54

on the wrong gen in 54

[winged turtle]

but, if it glitches, unless you put a sell into an incorrect generator, you can soft lock

[past mesa]

Yup

Gg aero

Gl for next run

[feral cliff]

;-;

[solemn flint]

Jish

Do you know how to get the wood cult certificate?

[past mesa]

Do you know how to use logs

[solemn flint]

what is that?

[past mesa]

It is the way

[solemn flint]

the only thing i know about logs is smack everything with it

[past mesa]

Interesting

That isn’t logs

I am pretty sure void has a vid on it

Then once you understand why we use logs

[vague bridge]

how do i join the timber clan

[past mesa]

Use gtfo logs

Pretty simple

[solemn flint]

is it the speed run logs to prevent rng?

[past mesa]

Prevent is a strong word

[solemn flint]

reduce?

[past mesa]

Better

More like determine rng

We don’t change anything in the game just read what the game gives in a text file

[vague bridge]

is there a joining ritual

[past mesa]

Get the wr in r1a1 🤮 or at least join for a lobby attempt

[vague bridge]

what does this have to do with logs

[wary linden]

aka sell your life to rng

[civic wave]

which r1a1 wr

[past mesa]

It is only a 1/10000 chance

[civic wave]

solo, solo logless, full team, something something or other

[sturdy glen]

I gave my soul twice

a small price to pay

[past mesa]

Full team

Logs

Restricted

[vague bridge]

the one percenters will never let me in their lobby

[past mesa]

We post for 4ths quite often

[wary linden]

A tier speedruns are all about rng because the skill level require to beat those level is so low that it becomes just about rng

[civic wave]

i've just done solo logless restricted, it's not like anyone else is doing it

so therefore I hold the record

[past mesa]

Nice

[civic wave]

eh kinda, always end up being a bit critical of the run after it's over

[vague bridge]

i can do r3a2 speedrun

[past mesa]

It isn’t just the low skill. it is also they are short

[civic wave]

the only way you can really save time is by better rng

or rather, RNG is the biggest time save

[wary linden]

which cost you more time to constantly reset

just run seeded at this point

[civic wave]

if you're chasing WR, logs will save you more time

because you're being selective

[past mesa]

Honestly I am for seeded run

We could actually do gtfo races

Would be fun

[wary linden]

again at this point running seeded would be the better way since it would save you more time out of your life

[past mesa]

I don’t disagree I don’t run heavy rng levels I just move on to the next

[civic wave]

running logless r1a1 I can tell you that I've reset quite often about 1:30 into runs because of H key, and 4:30 into runs because of E HSU

[civic wave]

and that defeats the point of what you're going for unless you're specifically wanting to do a seeded run

[past mesa]

Go ahead that run is fucked

The fog diving in crazy

[vague bridge]

ill be spawn zone cell guy

[past mesa]

😭

[wary linden]

then find the 10 best seeds and put them in a pool that select one of them randomly. you are searching for those 10 seeds anyway to get WR to begin with. Save yourself 99% of your time

[civic wave]

I really do not get your argument

fastest theoretical time, sure, do that
