Door is there wubCat

craggy pier
#

and a bat

craggy pier
lone mortar
#

Hel revolver and combat shotgun?

craggy pier
#

yes

lone mortar
#

There’s literally nothing that can alert the 2nd room

craggy pier
#

alright..

latent obsidian
#

If you shoot from as far from the open sec door as possible then its less likely things will hear you there

#

if they are 30m or closer they will wake up

lone mortar
#

Even when dmged

latent obsidian
#

not sure about that last one

#

and pretty sure its 30m

lone mortar
#

Nah

#

Asked mushroom a while back

#

He said 25

latent obsidian
#

I don't know who that is

craggy pier
#

im dead

#

the other room woke up you dick

latent obsidian
#

But everyone I've spoken to here has said 30

lone mortar
#

But utilities the security door as well

craggy pier
#

whyy

past mesa
#

50 30 10

craggy pier
#

you baited me

lone mortar
#

Could have been that (R7D2 maybe)

lone mortar
lone mortar
craggy pier
#

at this point i think i just need to avoid that area of the map

latent obsidian
#

how can you say nothing is gonna wake up if you don't know the map layout 😕

craggy pier
#

or i should use the knife so i can get that stupid lock

latent obsidian
#

Maybe just shoot the whole zone up from the start

#

giants are slow and not very threatening if you are prepared

craggy pier
#

maybe it's a good idea to bring a sniper?

#

but then i need to 100% rely on my primary for swarms

latent obsidian
#

Sniper would be excellent for dealing with them but not necessary

#

would make the alarms harder as you say

#

anything is fine as long as you get behind cover when you are reloading and can't stagger them

fierce walrus
#

you can also skip the giant zone?

raven owl
craggy pier
#

it happened twice in a row

fierce walrus
#

if that zone is yout major roadblock just go to the other ones

craggy pier
#

yeah

#

can i stealth kill a giant with a bat?

fierce walrus
#

technically yes

craggy pier
#

the wiki says i can keep them staggered forever

fierce walrus
#

yes

#

but it is risky

craggy pier
#

what aspect of it is risky

fierce walrus
#

getting slapped

#

if you mistime stagger

#

and the giant hits you/screams

craggy pier
#

once it hits it screams?

fierce walrus
#

no

#

it either attacks or screams

#

if it hits you thats a problem

#

if it screams its also a problem

craggy pier
#

so how do you kill it

fierce walrus
#

time your hits

craggy pier
#

full charge or 75% or what's the strat

fierce walrus
#

so you wanna go for full charges most of the time

#

unless you see that its no longer staggered

#

then you just hit him so he gets staggered again

#

(cause bat always staggers)

craggy pier
#

how much do you need to charge for it to stagger him

#

wait if it always staggers can't i just.. spam

#

who cares about timing just keep hitting the guy

#

or do like small charges

fierce walrus
#

well regular taps will light stagger it

#

and you will run out of stamina

craggy pier
#

oh you're right stamina

fierce walrus
#

so i wouldnt risk it

craggy pier
#

gonna try this out

#

sounds simpler than the hammer

fierce walrus
#

hammer kills it way faster

#

but yeah it is harder to screw up with bat

craggy pier
#

fantastic

fierce walrus
#

also

#

when starting it make sure to go for back of head for maximum damage at the beginning

#

and then go for back so you get slightly more damage

craggy pier
#

yeah

#

if this actually works

fierce walrus
#

you are doing R1B1 right?

craggy pier
#

yeah

#

i know i don't need to kill them

#

but it would help

craggy pier
#

HOLY SHIT I FOUND A LOCK MELTER AHAHAHA

fierce walrus
#

yay

craggy pier
#

shmelters 💦

fierce walrus
craggy pier
#

this is probably the run

#

i also have a mine

fierce walrus
#

well good luck

craggy pier
#

does the bat require back of head for scouts

crude mauve
#

Could I get any tips for R4D1?

fierce walrus

hazy crater
craggy pier
#

Is there a final big endless swarm in every mission or only some of them

#

Once you've completed the level

#

Or main objective i mean

#

I have 11 IDs

civic wave
#

only some missions

raven owl
#

Only some missions

#

R1B1 is a silent extraction

civic wave
#

and no alarm triggers from completing the objective

craggy pier
#

wooooooooohoooooo

#

r1a1 r1b2 r1c1 r1d1

#

i wonder why its only some missions

vague bridge
#

is r5c2 extraction silent

#

we never figured out because we kinda woke a guy up

civic wave
vague bridge
#

its more scary than it is difficult

#

because of how quickly the extraction actually is

fierce walrus
hazy crater
#

It’s fun having error alarms at the end of some levels

#

Like NICE we scanned the HSU sample here’s the error alarm go run

#

🏃

raven owl
#

The GTFO feeling...

hazy crater
#

Some times it catches me off guard

#

Like yeah it’s probably a good idea to do the warden door alarm before finishing the objectives but sometimes you don’t and you’re doing a level five scatter alarm while an error is going on

craggy pier
#

whoopsies

dusky gorge
#

i was playing with some beginner players yesterday trying to teach them the basics but we were encountering really hard enemies in R1B1 (which i think is one of the easier levels), does difficulty progress with more players? I didnt think so but i find it odd we encountered a birther and a snatcher in the first room of R1B1

ocean spindle
#

um someone in ur lobby was hackin

dusky gorge
#

if not im sure something happened with our server because we kept dying and getting revived

#

damnn

ocean spindle
#

yeah, if u like maybs know who it was, cause they were silent or somethin
report em to @uneven gulch

#

with all the details

dusky gorge
#

alr thank you!

raven owl
#

I've seen some people use flash lights in a way that seemed strategic. Is there actually some strategy behind using flashlights to clear a room?

craggy pier
#

not much really but u can flash a sleeper to force him to click so u can kill something afterward

topaz anvil
#

Use them to quickly sync up a group for easier movement

craggy pier
#

or flash something nearby and kill a sleeper to force that first sleeper to wake up and kill that as well

past mesa
#

In Uber packed rooms the only safe kills become double kills when solo.

minor fractal
raven owl
#

Interesting

#

I'll take that into consideration the next time I play. Thanks

past mesa
#

I mean

#

You have to practice this one

#

You have to bump sleepers to make it consistent

raven owl
#

Lol

soft crater
#

You do that but then a teammate starts sprinting in

soft crater
#

This happens to me whenever I commit a sprint jump

#

Just outside of sleeper radius at its lowest.

#

Not ethical really and something I shouldn't make a habit of

raven owl
#

Does walking produce the same noise level as crouch walking?

topaz anvil
#

It's louder so to speak

raven owl
#

But does that matter as long as you stop right before they awake?

topaz anvil
#

no

tardy ingot
#

btw, does anyone know levels where you can potentially soft lock (without desync or it happening due to a missing spawned item?)

#

i got r4b1 for main and r4a2 for secondary NOTED

topaz anvil
#

r5b3 secondary maybe with the props you could get stuck inside in the original

tardy ingot
#

oh i shouldve clarified

#

level gets impossible to beat for that
not a player getting stuck

#

since players that are stuck could just leave (and if needed rejoin)

topaz anvil
#

if you are solo you cant

tardy ingot
#

with that you could still just have someone join and spawn in

#

i mean situations that cant be cleared anymore basically

mossy aurora
#

Are you counting tile soft locks as well?

tardy ingot
#

tile soft locks?

past mesa
#

Jump inbetween things and get stuck

tardy ingot
#

since those players could always theoretically leave i think excluding it makes more sense than including

#

i semi added r4d2 btw (if you get double bulkhead scan you can soft lock extreme lol)

tardy ingot
past mesa
#

Take overload cell to main and plug it in

#

Or bulkhead key doesn’t spawn

past mesa
#

Few levels like that

#

R4c3 cell doesn’t spawn

craggy pier
#

How the fuck do we beat R7C1 Class S alarm

tardy ingot
#

not stuff that is inherently soft locked jish.
Stuff that you have to personally soft lock

craggy pier
#

😭

tardy ingot
tardy ingot
craggy pier
#

Yeah

tardy ingot
#

Do you know how spawn rules work for alarms?

craggy pier
#

By the time we lower the fog, and get back to the alarm, we're out of resources

#

No i do not

#

How does the spawn rules work?

tardy ingot
#

the general rule is 2 rooms away (your room being room 0)

craggy pier
#

That's where they will spawn?

tardy ingot
#

specific advice for that alarm. Mine the doors they spawn behind (no random mines in the open)
Then place 2 sentries (preferably burst or sniper) on the path they take in the actual alarm room

tardy ingot
craggy pier
hazy crater
#

Pooping at work

#

Can’t wait to play gtfo tonight

halcyon mango
#

what's with some precision multipliers being < 1

#

decrease headshot dmg?

turbid horizon
#

kind of

#

it multiplies that with the headshot modifier

#

So .77 x 2

#

Just so some weapons do less/more damage on a headshot, they’ll never do less damage on head than on body

tardy ingot
#

nod its simply for breakpoints

soft crater
#

I often forget Daky multiplies the Precision multi against the weakpoint multi rather than the dmg

eternal bridge
#

As in 0 and 1

tardy ingot
#

hm?

eternal bridge
#

Some room designs creates odd sound barriers which in turn is counted as an additional room

turbid horizon
#

I’m cool and quirky like that

eternal bridge
#

Despite the room being “seen” as 1 room on the map

tardy ingot
#

thats just open room dividers

tardy ingot
#

which basically always haev room signs

eternal bridge
#

Always have room signs?

#

How?

soft crater
turbid horizon
#

It helps me see that the damage isn’t actually being lowered

eternal bridge
#

Is it possible to see that visually?

soft crater
#

Wiki also states precision damages after the multiplier

tardy ingot
#

:I

eternal bridge
#

😐

soft crater
#

Hel rifle for example.
Base bullet damage 30 x precision multi 0.73 = 21.9 applies to all precision shots

#

Daky's requires you to get the head multi of Individual enemies

#

It changes the enemies head multi to like 1.095

#

Giant 1.5x head x hel rifles precision 0.73x = 1.095

#

Vs 21.9 x 1.5x

tardy ingot
#

i still prefer explaining it with precision multi x head multies

#

cuz sometimes beginners ask why it does less dmg

#

which the dmg to precision doesnt explain

halcyon mango
#

I'd rather do 30 x (1.5 x 0.73) than (30 x 0.73) x 1.5

#

of course headshot multi being non-standard across enemies is pain

soft crater
#

It makes sense but it gets more complicated

craggy pier
#

is there a method to kill big shooters stealthily

halcyon mango
#

inconsistent

soft crater
#

4 hammer full charge back

halcyon mango
#

with whether they scream or not iirc

soft crater
halcyon mango
#

oh I was talkin about solo

craggy pier
#

you can't break limbs off n stuff right

#

to stagger it

soft crater
#

You can.

#

You would want to actually

#

Limb stagger is a bit longer than just a damage stagger

tardy ingot
#

eh, simply give it an occi full charge with hammer. then you only need 2 more hits to the back or 1 more to the occi

#

chickens are so harmless

soft crater
craggy pier
#

okay

#

so wait you can stagger a chicken with limb hits?

soft crater
#

All giant variants yes.

#

Charger giants ofc being the hardest.

#

Idk about stealthing tho

halcyon mango
#

oh yeah, why was r6 easier than other rundowns. good guns, lack of enemies, or?

past mesa
#

+shorter levels

halcyon mango
#

makes sense

tardy ingot
#

"easier than other rundowns" is very general statement

#

R6 is harder than R1 and R3

halcyon mango
#

oh

tardy ingot
#

while being around the same general difficulty as R2

past mesa
tardy ingot
#

checkpoints are basically not considered for difficulty (same for boosters)

halcyon mango
#

from what I heard it sounded like a steep drop from r5

past mesa
#

Same as r4

halcyon mango
#

so you are massochistic for doing r4e1

soft crater
#

Iirc someone was telling me R6 would be harder since the meta shifted but idk

tardy ingot
#

the reasons R6 was easier:
Strongest gun loadout to date yet (Alt R3 and R4 (only peak) is arguable maybe)
Strong tool loadouts (burst sentry works, sniper sentry and mines strong. R7/alt r1 is strongest total tho)
Lack of optionals (only 2 PEs and 3 extra secondaries)
Priority/story expeditions were toned down difficulty wise

soft crater
#

Not meta shift but gun/tool balance has shifted

past mesa
#

Sniper nerf might be big

tardy ingot
#

R6 is gonna be the first and only rundown where we will have an overall loadout that will be weaker than when it was out originally

tardy ingot
#

so lol

past mesa
#

Na hel fun is just to strong in general

soft crater
tardy ingot
#

it didnt

#

but hel rifle isnt better than hel gun (especially not than r6 hel gun)

#

R6 had 3 of the 5 best weapons ever

#

actually, 4

soft crater
#

Scattergoon

halcyon mango
#

gtfo lor

tardy ingot
#

R6 sniper and hel gun, scattergun (pre nerf) and hel revolver (with r4 hel revo being even better than it then)

#

only burst cannon is missing

soft crater
#

Didn't the reload animation for hel revo

#

Make reload cancel even faster?

tardy ingot
#

now we go into it with a nerfed burst cannon, nerfed sniper, nerfed hel gun. And scattergun MIGHT get nerfed aswell

tardy ingot
past mesa
#

Scattergun gets buffed

soft crater
#

Nah

#

Not that

past mesa
#

I am calling it

soft crater
#

At somepoint hel revo got a reload animation change

#

And it's reload cancel was seemingly faster

#

It wasn't the recoil one

tardy ingot
#

@civic wave you play lots of r4, you should be able to tell this right?

#

i dont think they changed its reload cancel

#

but pachi should know better

civic wave
#

I don't think the reload ever changed, or if it did I certainly haven't noticed or felt it

#

I shouldnhave footage of both somewhere so gimme a few mins to go frame by frame in editing software

hazy crater
#

Day 98: still attempting r2e1. Hopefully if I die in the game I die in real life

upper ginkgo
#

have you tried cheesing it yet

civic wave
#

reload is exactly the same

hazy crater
past mesa
#

C faom

#

On ladder

hazy crater
#

I have 1hp and no dreams only night mares

soft crater
#

Hmm

#

Mightve not changed the reload itself

#

But I believe they added the bullets flying out to the reload

halcyon mango
# hazy crater What cheese

besides the ladder thing, there's also a roof you can get on top of in the first room to camp on while someone else pulls all the first few rooms over.
of course can just stealth all the rooms with shadows if it's doable for you and save ammo.

#

I assume c-foam also has the 5-min time limit when sprayed on ladders?

past mesa
#

Correct

halcyon mango
#

weird, cuz the c-foam ladder cheese lasts much longer than that

#

feels like the enemies just despawn or something

past mesa
#

Na the enemies just don’t update

soft crater
#

They can't get past the enemy going down the ladder (who has been cfoamed on the ladder)

#

Since they can only go one at a time

halcyon mango
#

yeah, but strikers stay c-foamed for like 8s, and c-foam expires after 5 min

#

so after it expires, it should be free no

past mesa
#

Na they still need to finsish updating

#

That could take a second as well

halcyon mango
#

what's this "updating" thing

#

my thoughts are c-foam expire -> striker has 8s before being free again -> comes down the ladder with co

past mesa
#

All Sleepers are allowed 20 updates per a frame

#

12 updates on network

#

These vaules go down the further they are away

halcyon mango
#

I see

#

so it takes longer to be un-c-foamed the further they are away?

past mesa
#

Yeah 2 rooms away

past mesa
#

You can see it with bio if you really play attention

halcyon mango
#

more cursed game mechanics

past mesa
#

Na this one is to help performance

tardy ingot
#

jish, they are talking about enemies coming once cfoam is gone

#

unless im missinterpreting what you are saying jish

past mesa
#

Maybe the updates is why this be happening

tardy ingot
#

you are explaining why ladderfoam cheese is so insane

halcyon mango
tardy ingot
#

once the foam is gone the enemys will slowly come up the ladder (since its usually a stacked wave they will come as small chunks)

#

4 (its actually under 5) min is a LOOONG time

#

you can do entire levels in that duration

halcyon mango
#

I guess. but surely doing an alarm and going all the way to the last surge alarm takes longer than 5 min considering normal levels can take like 45min+

halcyon mango
#

r2e1

#

or the part where you're bringing the cell, neonate, and turbine over

#

I never cleared it fully, so it might be the second to last or third to last or something

#

but the error alarm part

tardy ingot
#

considering that we did it in ~4 min quite a lot florkShrug1

halcyon mango
#

I see

#

time dilation under intense situation I guess

tardy ingot
#

also gotta consider

#

when you get further away from them

  1. they gotta path to you
#

and 2. (basically going of what jish said) their movement gets a bit messed up slowing them down

tardy ingot
halcyon mango
#

oh well, if we lived a minute or two longer then we wouldn've been fucked anyways it sounds like

tardy ingot
#

yea we had that happen before in some attempts on it

#

took too long and suddenly had spawn capped wave say hi

does ads with bio actually improve getting pings or is it just a placebo

Placebo

halcyon mango
#

my life is a lie

compact rapids
#

is bio generally a good tool to bring? I've been using it and liking the utility, but is it just better to bring a different tool?

sturdy glen
#

always bring bio

craggy pier
#

Yes always

#

It offers lot of information

#

Also some buffs to sniper and shotgun sentry

compact rapids
#

nice

halcyon mango

so you can be proactive instead of reactive if that makes sense

also some scenarios like ||shadows|| practically require it

tardy ingot
# craggy pier A better question would bé Do people's opinion matter on how i play the game

Mmh, i get what you are going for

But theres lots of communities where some simple mods are basically accepted as standard gameplay and a newbie could be overwhelmed and not know, leading to either not using them (worse experience) or using some that are basically just seen as cheats (usually far worse experience)

Imagine a new guy playing gtfo but with unlimited ammo, no recoil and endless mag

sacred dew
#

that's where the kick function comes in

mossy aurora
tropic vine
#

oops my bad

#

i guess that isnt too bad if you have like crazy bad memory

mossy aurora
#

It definitely makes things easier, the disagreement over that mod mainly comes from how important resource identification and memory is to the game experience. Is it something that's ok basically having done for you via the mod or is it ruining a part of the game

#

A good example of this is the mod that lets you move packs around too. People who like it say it's just for convenience, those who don't recognize that the ability to stack 5 ammo packs in the same locker for a reactor hold is a bit op

tropic vine
#

aaaahhhhh i see

sacred dew
#

or just use mods responsibly and tell your host if they're ok with it

tardy ingot
#

personally

Moving packs is oof
Just knowing the information is smth i wouldnt use but would be fine with

tropic vine
#

yea i gotta agree with eva on this

#

i just dont like the resourse helper

#

it might be fine for solo runs but i wouldnt use it with others

#

When you check mod list and see aimpunch adjuster

tropic vine
#

wait what?

#

what does that even mean?

mossy aurora
#

U know what aim punch is?

tropic vine
#

nope

mossy aurora
#

You know how if you're trying to shoot something but you get hit right before your aim flinches

#

That's aimpunch

tropic vine
#

bruh

latent obsidian
#

Does "adjuster" mean "remover"?

tropic vine
#

i would assume so?

mossy aurora
#

I think you can increase the value too

#

But its always on people that are also using jump and shoot, heroic heart, etc

Most people ask me about them because I use the Axe head on hammer

craggy pier
soft crater
#

Maul Mod?

#

Or at least it's called that and defaulted to Maul head part on Hammer

craggy pier
#

imma head to the lab and apply this hypothesis

soft crater
#

Some people asked me how I got it to use axe head part instead of Maul

#

You gotta edit the config file for MaulMod and change the persistent ID

#

To which melee head part you want on it

dry pumice
#

Fireaxe Skin DLC when

#

I'd buy that

#

...probably

#

No, that was most likely some sort of mod

#

Like biotracker ping or an objective ping?

#

Like we can ping doors and lockers

#

Then its most likely "ping everything" mod

#

Wonder if its considered QoL or cheating by local standards...

#

I mean, it is pretty harmless all things considered.

But some people abuse the shit out of it by going PING PING PING PING PING in a span of a second

What is a good weapon combo for dealing with surge hordes? I want to run hel shotty and a machine gun but will it eat too much ammo/long reloads?

There is a spreadsheet. For HEL shotgun to get to 1/2 dmg in absence of any multipliers (headshot, etc.), it would have to be shot at 22 meters from target. The spreadsheet I found on reddit by a user named RandomKenny called weapon analysis or something.

Tutorial/training/eval % stats still goated

#

Steve McSpeedrunning-Resets is an outlier and should be ignored

tardy ingot
#

Imagine if r1a1 resets in drop would count to completions LOL

#

the %rate would be fucked

civic wave
#

R7a1 was around 39% even with being easy as hell and checkpoints

tardy ingot
#

Oh god tru is turned
No longer our tru Sadge

native sun
native sun
tardy ingot
#

Makes a lot of sense as always

#

R7A1 is the easiest non training mission up to date (and training wouldve had a higher completion% if it wasnt for the mentally deranged speedrun community)

B1/C1/D1 having lower% than their counterparts even tho they are similar or even easier because beginners get stuck on them

E1 standing out generally (tho probably having a slightly inflated % even because you need to do all levels to play it)

#

C1 being the biggest roadblock overall for beginners specifically is quite well shown

#

And C3 most likely is a mix of beginners having no or little clue on giant stealth and vets yoloing it

native sun
#

C2 having a relatively easy first checkpoint I think also contributes a lot to its high completion rate.

tropic vine
native sun
#

aw man you gon make me scroll again

#

sorry mate :(

native sun
tropic vine
#

epic, thank you

tardy ingot
#

Btw as everyone should know, my opinion is always tru kappa

tardy ingot
native sun
#

tbh I don't know how the the completion % handles checkpoints, if it counts resets to checkpoints

#

Though I think generally C1 and C3 have hard short sections between checkpoints, while C2 has long easy sections between checkpoints. So you might retry from C3 checkpoints several times, while you'd generally only retry from C2 checkpoints once or twice before getting it

bold epoch
#

what is the [1,1,-,-] in this "COMPLETED: [1,1,-,-]" mean ?

latent obsidian

If there is a - it means that completion isn't available on that level, (it only has main and secondary)

So for your example you cleared it with secondary once, no overload was available

what is the different if i only do main obj vs do all obj ? only some extra booster and exploration ?

because back damage is a spectrum for some reason
