That's good, I love BBC, I'll try some tn
Mike tyson
devs should really add being able to toggle if bots auto pick up supplies
arbalist has a slower dps than Veruta
Veruta is awesome
It's the rambo gun
60 rounds of brr and a fast reload
Also do shadows move slower than usual sleepers
I swear they're way slower and get closer
they do
Shadows have indeed a slower move speed and shorter range than normal Strikers
Except john cenas
is r6cx terminal uplinks better to do from top to bottom?
Yes
Is it because there's more enemies the more terminals are done?
Over Time yes
I see, thanks
Hybrids and shockers
Also top terminal is more open than mid n bottom
Only have to deal with flyers and strikers n shooters when uplink starts
mid > top > bottom to avoid tons of flyer and big flyer during mid terminal uplink
since top is quite easy to hold
doing bottom last means doing bottom with fog eh, unless they changed it in alt
but bottom is so easy that it doesn't matter
I don't remember fog in CX (DX)
Its better to do top first
Shockers wont peek much into mid one
bottom is easy + you could use fog repeller if you happen to keep one
Not outside, that is...
Fog in dimension ?!!
Yeah fog rises overtime in the final part of cx
That wasnt a thing before
it was
How Bad is it
Is it? I swear to god I never noticed.
Noticed that when me and my team where in the mid terminal cuz we were slow
Still a very simple funnel tho
Im certain there was no fog
it was a thing
it just fog update after R7 making it very visible
I am certain there was fog.
Its the thick kind of fog
Even on my failed bot run I wasn't even breathing the fumes of it at the bottom last.
pre R7 fog are less dense
Bot to top you dont see the fog at all, basically
top to bottom is very noticeable from what I remember
It still doesn't matter
Is it vanilla fog or mountain dew fog
even without fog reps I remember doing bottom last and thinking it was a breeze compared to bottom to top
just vanilla
Foggies time
Not really a problem then, probably.
Naah not really
No checkpoint is a must β€οΈ
hey guys
i have problem with game
it say net work error but already try few methods but still have issue
what should i do?
Just try reloading the game, there shouldn't be any problems with launching atm
Question what is a good tool for soloing?
I feel like mines could be but then again a sentry would be nice as well
mines for sure
I feel like burst is the universal answer. Mine or foam can come in handy in specific levels where you can really get the value out of it but generally burst is just your best friend
It can cover you, softens up targets for you, breaks waves apart...
Suddenly you're not so alone
Suddenly you feel comforted by soloing
Mines or burst sentry generally
Depending on the level
kk thank you
Can you apply ammo directly to a placed sentry
Yes
Hard to tell what's the % of it though
I believe it starts showing yellow numbers once under 50%
So just hit it until it is white again
bursts sentries are about 260 so stop when u get there
sniper 33
shotguns idk
auto sentry 550 or so
so u can just hit it off with the numbers on it
269 Burst
32 Sniper
58 Shotgun
583 Hel Auto
60 C-foam
β Bio
8 Mines
its a shame they wont remaster rundown 7, AWOL is my favorite mission working alongside Schaeffer but its so difficult even when I'm playing with a 4 man team
rundown 7 overall could use a lil ALT improvement...
just take 4 scatterguns
the average home defense method
an alt wouldnt do it much easier tbh
most alts were easier cause the guns we have are better n stuff
along with minor minor changes, sometimes buffs
oh so the ALT doesnt exactly change the level to be easier just the player equipment?
the alt changes the level, but it can change it to be easier, harder or even the same
like r2b1 which is the same
we just have better weapons now
Alt 7 would only need to happen to straight out the lore being all over... And fix the goddamn D1.
The lore somewhat barely works all together
like i was so happy at r6d1 to get schaeffers message
7 is not helping
but there are no subtitles for Schaeffers message at R6D1 and its only played around the door so its hard to hear
would be nice if they made it audible in the whole room and added subtitles like when he speaks in R7
And even this is a meh
Overall weapons are better but the strongest havent rly gotten better
Schaeffer for first 6 alt rundowns: π€
Schaeffer in 7:

yeah first mission in r7 he contacts us like we best buds but he doesnt talk to us until r6d1 and thats a pre recorded message it feels like
yeh pretty much, we dont have an r6 unnerfed scattergun or a r3 burst cannon or un [r4 r5 broken weapons]
:]
honestly dont see why remastering rundown 7 as an ALT would be too hard, if only just to change interactions with Schaeffer and for the lore to be consistent
There is a small funny possibility that R8 is just heavily derailed R7 alt
like ig id be fine with the levels as they are with their bugs and all if the story was consistent
bruh no way
that would be gross
2 R7's??
Key word: derailed
and not to mention that the R7 that isnt the same storyline with the ALT stories would come BEFORE R8(R7ALT) would WRECK my OCD
Same time line but different objectives because things changed too much for old objectives to make sense
already not having ALT on R7 gives me massive headache
just remaster rundown 7...
i feel like they are making it more difficult
Waste of time and resources.
βJustβ
so remaking a new rundown which is the same but different isnt a waste of resources?
would be easier to make a few small changes in R7 for it to make sense then make R8
i do hope it gets some fixes with R8 patches
But really changing lore (outside of maybe adding some voice logs) idk
Seems like a fairly uncharitable read of what Artek actually said.
?
someone told me they were making R8 and used a quote saying "a gruesome end to the story" implying the rundown would be a new fresh thing that is R8. Not a remastered ALT R7
so if they make this an ALT R7 where will be rundown 8?
Indeed.
Heavily derailed means not an alt, not the same levels, not the same content, etc.
Derailed.
Same time line but different objectives because things changed too much for old objectives to make sense
Yeah.
but it would still technically be rundown 7?
No.
Eh... Semantics.
a different rundown 7
Warden would have to classify it that way.
Story-wise, it's technically altR7 if they go that route.
i still dont see why giving rundown 7 a facelift and slapping alt on there then making r8 is a waste of resources
But in actuality, it's not an alt rundown, it's R8.
Because R7 doesn't need a facelift?
There's not really much they could change.
kind of does, the story isnt consistent
Bugfixes maybe, but that isn't an alt.
D1 disagrees
That's bugfixes
bug fixes, making the story consistent, making Schaeffer interactions consistent
that too
We need need giant wings for some terminals
Nobody cares. You're appeasing a subset of a subset of the community, when you could just address it in R8, and you don't have to pay voice actors for no good reason.
people want new content, not recycled stuff
why need to pay them? use the same voice messages
The story was all subtle shit until r6
Then you're not addressing anything.
I'm not sure what you mean by "addressing inconsistencies" when you aren't changing a single voice line.
it's hard to care about the story imho
What is inconsistent?
i thought the voicelines were fine, i dont see how those differ from the alt story but add subtitles for r6 interaction, get rid of/change a few logs in rundown 7
or am i missing part of the story cause i didnt see the originals
depends on the player
the game isnt really about the story its more co-op but it has a good story that it would be nice to see made whole
Why do we need an entire alt rundown for this?
(The lore so far is mostly all archived on the wiki anyway)
omg
See you in R8.
bruh
bros acting like he just impeached the president
i said facelift
i was talking about the lack of an alt label messing with ocd
What would a facelift entail?
Bugfixes are nice, but R7 is fine.
making the story consistent? idk the entire story myself but ive met dozens of players disastified with how the alt story is different?
i mean why change the story in alt at all what was the point of that genuine question
There are certainly peopel that think the story direction is dumb as fuck.
That's not because of a lack of continuity.
ive fallen through the map so many times tho
That's just how the story was writen.
Wow, it would be nice if they fixed that bug.
Which has nothing to do with R7, btw.
the story isnt dumb its that they said there are 2 different stories going on?
Yes, there are two timelines in play.
its only happened in r7. consistently r7 maps
That is stupid and contrived.
Parallel universes which may probably be overlapping now
and thats fucked lol
Yeah, it is fucked.
but why do such a thing when laying out the story is so simple?
i have a feeling the devs were just wingin it and made it up as they go
It's also not a problem that a second pass on R7 has anything to do with.
Yeah, I think winding down the game very suddenly after R7 might have resulted in a bit of "winging it"
a facelift on r7 to change the story to allign with alt rundowns? how does that not have anything to do with r7?
Because R7 is not an alt.
cause from what ive been told and seen r7 is the odd one out here
Making it align doesn't make sense.
The problem isn't R7, it's the two timeline contrivance.
If you "made it align," it would just be one tiemline.
technically the ALTs were the problem
You would be retroactively rewriting the lore.
Which might actually be worse.
R7 is at the end of R1-R6, of which the originals have their own logs.
the problem was they made another timeline with alt when they didnt need to they coulda just used original story with facelifts on the levels but now that the alts outnumber originals, and the original r7 is filled with bugs and issues and everyone ive talked to so far says it needs a facelift, just facelift r7
GTFO is filled with bugs and issues.
ive seen alot of games change parts of the lore, rewrite them, theyve all turned out better
Ok.
because if they have to change the lore its probably for the better because a discrepancy or something that doesnt make sense
so change a few logs? remove some old, add some new, doesnt require new voice acting exactly
How many expeditions do we think will be in r8?
He's got a point actually
the circle looks small
At least 6
All you have to do... Is just remove Schaeffer from the picture.
Not what I'd call a facelift. Take it up w/ #gtfo-lore.
thats... not quite where i was going lol
No more scan In front of the glass in A1, no side quest on B1 just so that he would open a door for us.
Gameplay-wise, there's nothing left for R7.
its called making the story consistent but you didnt like me saying that so i called it a facelift
Alt R6 got cut to shit Schaeffer's monologue wise.
And various Dragons are praising it as a QoL
why did they do that?
Terms are acceptable here as far as I'm concerned
Schaeffer is an important part of the story and hes the reason prisoners will escape (maybe) and some missions take place
honestly dont see why remastering rundown 7 as an ALT would be too hard, if only just to change interactions with Schaeffer and for the lore to be consistent
Also, you're just lying, but I can't blame you because your position was horrendous.
Combination of "voice acting expensive" and the fact that all the veterans get super mad about having to have their precious ears blasted with monologue while they do a minute log scan with nothing to do but gaining tinnitus
It's okay, I understand.
your taking a dicussion like a political debate
Making altR7 is moronic, and a bad idea.
the hells goin on here
I'm glad we agree.
why?
if u two r havin a discussion can u have it in private
this is gtfo related questions
i didnt lie at all? i dont get it i just mentioned that it would be nice to change things about R7 to make it fit better with the ALTS
its about the game tho?
ah well yeah but sounds aggresive tbh
im curious as to why they wont change paticular things i was looking for a reason
Your position was that they should make altR7.
i aint tryna be aggressive im just talkin but sorry if it comes off that way, i aint goin round callin me a liar lol
You then backed off of that and claimed you never said it.
slap an alt label on it after a few changes
I agree: they should. Don't have to. But in ideal world it would be preferable.
i think you misunderstood my misunderstanding of your misunderstooding
this
Then your position has no meaning.
You're advocating for a change that is basically nothing.
im not changing my story at all, im using different words cause you seem to get mad when i use paticular words
your taking it too seriously just calm down
id like to see things fit better between the ALTS and r7?
I do.
i do?
isnt the whole thing of the alts that it splits off?
i'd like to see it
Frosty, maybe.
why would R7 split off aswell?
Then go to #gtfo-lore
yeah
i found it silly they did that but now since they did do it it would be easier to change r7 to fit alts right?
It will stick out like a sore thumb.
it really doesnt
It absolutely does.
its a gtfo related question i was asking tho
Especially when we advise people to play chronologically.
the whole reason they did this alt shit in the first place is because they needed time for R8
change my mind
You frame it that way, but it really isn't.
So let's imagine
It seems entirely lore-related.
R8 is released
Alts are first-and-foremost a gameplay feature.
its a gtfo related question about r7 and the lore being different
"Alt R7" implies a gameplay remaster
Which is unnecessary, and a waste of resources.
Just make R8.
but why
And now we have a weird picture:
R1 through R6 is Smart Schaeffer.
Then suddenly in R7 he changes to half insane madman Schaeffer.
Then in R8 he's... Back to "normal"? Maybe?
i think it would be nice if the story fit all together into one big pie, i think alot of the bugs ive experienced have only been in r7
Because R7 is already a high quality rundown, there's not much you could change game-play-wise that's interesting and also cheap vs. making a new rundown, and then there's also the issue of whether you keep OG R7 or not.
i think some of the levels dont even make sense
the bugs aint gonna be fixed with an alt R7
yeah lol whut goin on
hell, they aint gonna be fixed with R8 probs
Name one R7-specific bug. There are some, but I'm curious if you actually have examples.
tbh if a level doesnt make sense thats not somethin u can quite change with an alt
the levels on em are practically the exact same
if the original story was good why change it in alts? I feel like thats the point of changing story in alts cause original wasnt good so whats wrong with replacing the original story?
story, size of map
probably for the benefit of returning players who played through it already and give a crap about the story
There's small possibility that R8 will address our concerns with, oh I don't know, time lines merging and different Schaeffers meeting each other, but we just have to wait and see.
i dont think they changed the story because it was bad, they changed it so it would introduce an alternate reality no?
bruhhhhh
i think they had a good story but with this different timeline crap its just a mess now
You don't need an alt rundown to adjust story, which you can do with logs, R8, etc. already.
the size of some maps are kinda part of it, u say b2 its meant to be long, same as d1 or c2
i dont see why they couldnt just stick to one path? does anybody know why they changed it at all?
thats why? they messed it up on purpose? lol
to drive more attention from more people who otherwise wouldn't have cared
You are also replying to
"Alt R7" implies a gameplay remaster
with lore. This isn't gameplay related.
I don't think there's the reason.
and probably allowing them to free up some manpower to get started on the cyberheist game (seeing as they haven't producing as much original bespoke content for GTFO over the past year)
ok then? thats where the term facelift comes in which i used
Alts are gameplay-focused.
lets give it a facelift to fit the lore
got no friggin clue why they changed it, a lot of ppl dont rly care about lore in the first place
this is also irritating, the game has a story it wasnt an inconvenience to gameplay
it was part of the game
you can play this game without giving a crap about story
Then you're talking about something that not very many people care about.
shotgun sway was an r7 specific bug, but they fixed it thank the lord
The alternative reality thing started pocking it's head way back in OG R6 with random logs that would change in different ways. Perhaps they always had this planned and it's just a good excuse to re-release old content.
theyre alts because theyre bringing them back with a slight tweak because they cant 100% copy the OG
D3 when
The lore community is largely fairly dedicated players, and only a subset of all dedicated players.
you can but every good game has a good story, and why get rid of the good story? i mean its still there in the backround so now its just annoying that we dont see the story at all?
i already have cleared r6 and have uninstalled the game
π§ββοΈ
sad times, see you for R8
just wait for R8 to (hopefully) conclude it
conclude one of the timelines
bring em together mby
im worried we gonna leave the other bud hangin
who knows
They're kind of ingrained in the lore.
Tetris has none and it's a 10/10 basically.
Can't really "remove" a timeline.
haha
impressive
Without rewriting basically everything since R7.
they removed the timeline of rundown 1 to 6 and replaced it with alt rundown 1 to 6?
they didnt remove
unless ofc the timeline becomes redundant (due to everyone relevant being killed off/leaving that timeline or something)
the gave us an alternate timeline
so if this game was to make sense then remove rundown 7, replace, make one timeline?
Like, there are multiple story beats that specifically involve the fact that this is an alternate timeline.
over the original 1 to 6 timeline?
And we are canonically the same quad from R7.
that would leave the original timeline hanging (what happened to the squad since then?)
and the OG timeline
i suppose
all thats left of that is r7
Not over, covering the same time period/mission set.
but with a differnent story tho right?
but that would be an instance of leave the other bud hangin
Like, you'd have to also remove Dauda and Bishop from AltR6CX
im fairly certain the goal for the alts wasnt the new lore/timeline, it was retaining players by bringing back old content
Technically, no.
and giving them a head-start on developing their next game
Both timelines exist in the same in-game universe.
so now 2 timelines, 6n rundowns for one, one for the other, seems to me if they want to stick to one timeline theyd replace r7, but if this alternate timeline is intentional then its a bit silly to me but so be it
I'm afraid you just have to swallow the pill of the fact that the ALT nonsense is a direct consequence of their FOMO rundown replacement experiment, which was a mistake to begin with. They can't fix this. Or... They can, but they'd have pull a No Man's Sky and do it for the sake of doing it and pure passion.
i think they got tired of working alts said "lets go to 6, do rundown 8 and we done here"
if they didnt do alts and R8 would still remain with its current relase estimate they have 1 1/2 years of dead silence
if they wanted to stick to one timeline they wouldn't have bothered with the "alt" malarkey
Unfathamobly, this question would have been resolved much faster if you posted in the lore channel instead of the questions channel.
there it is. "pure passion". I feel like that was lost somewhere in the making?
you're probably right lol
It's almost like this is the wrong channel to discuss something completely divorced from gameplay, especially when you disguise your question as a gameplay question.
i was told it was just a remaster of the original levels
insert change my mind meme
yeah, and they chose to introduce a parallel universe to justify it
they just didnt have R8 yet
it doesnt say gameplay it says gtfo related questions man, so i asked here, big deal you arent forced to be part of the convo but i asked here
I'm guessing that they probably do have R8
like holy hell, in a roiadmap before R7 release it was markes as 2022
Remaster is a strong word.
unneccesary mess
Do you think your average GTFO-chatter is a lore buff or a multi-thousand hour sweatlord?
Genuinely asking.
'Unnecessary mess' which they intentionally chose to introduce.
genuinely asking is what i was doing, idk this community im not active on this server 24/7 like you bro
Fair enough.
The changes are miniscule if any.
Ironically the strongest change was R5E1... A change that they fucked up the deployment of and only realized when it was reported as a bug in ALT R6 deployment, lmao.
Classic 10c moment, my eyes are genuinely swelling with funny tears.
so the devs just dont care anymore is that it? Thats a shame cause the idea of this story and this game is fantastic but its just a huge mess now innit
but point is, I'm guessing that all of this was a contrivance to buy them an extra year or so of time to get preproduction started for their next project whilst keeping GTFO somewhat alive in the meantime
it was always a mess
they couldve bought time while not messing things up haha
Don't we all.
game lore aside i think the devs have lore of their own, "why did they do this? was it because of this?"
their decisions are... mind boggling
not just lore wise
Mayhaps because noone really had a plan in the first place
part of the dev lore
yeah like why change rundowns every update? i feel like alt was a reason to introduce all rundowns at once but then why the alt remaster
so confusing
they very probably had their own idea of what the game would be like
stuff like the earlier trailers kind of make me think that
its like 5 different people had an idea and had to take turns π
technically there were 10
good point
got to something like 60 now right?
as i said above, they just needed time and it was probs just some funky idea to change the lore with it
dang.
i dont think it was planned this way before R7
Tbf, this is probably consistent with their plans for the MWP.
i appreciate the talk with everyone involved my mind has more questions than before but thats how it goes ig lol
With the release of rundown 7 they realise that the way they were continuing the game was completly unsustainable so they decided to use the memory stick shit and teleportation shennanigangs to change how the game its going be
It's possible that it's genuinely something they rewrote, but this might also just be something they already had noted down somewhere and they just never meant to implement major time travel in reality.
re-adding old rundowns with some minor tweaks here and there
Like, the original EF01 logs include all of the time-dilation stuff well before Alts.
love that word. "shenanigans"
and, of course, buys them plenty of time for starting the preproduction busywork for cyberheist
The truth is: gtfo is a very experimental project that tried some... Interesting things. Not all of them great. And it continues to be just that with the whole ALT thing. So unfortunately we just have to accept the flaws for now.
The lore was always an after thought. You can see it by reading logs in rundown release order. It was less than a skeleton for first 2 rundowns, then it suddenly started growing meat somewhere near R4 and onwards.
Today we have some batshit crazy lore going on, and barely anyone cares because all the people here are the gameplay junkies because it's hard to get involved into the lore of a game where the said lore is a rare log in a random ass terminal in the middle of an error alarm.
but as of 2024-2025 no GTFO after r8
At his point the lore is just the only writer flirting with #gtfo-lore people
Not at all experimental
lack of focus and overambition
all with a spice of mismanaging
hopefully they've learned from the mistakes
i mean we can say experimental to cover the flaws
but overall 10cc its a young company/game studio
The whole FOMO rundowns shtick was heeelllla an experimental feature.
wasnt a feature
I don't know a single other game that tried something crazy like that.
Aside from Destiny removing shit, but that was incompetency me thinks
Where is csgo cobble
when you have your own employess on stream saying "it kinda sucks that we have to delete months of work"
csgo workshop
Then again, the various co-op missions from the CSGO operations...
π»
The rundown system is very much built for content that is "cheap" and can be shat out every month or two.
But that doesn't necessarily make for interesting gameplay, and presumably the devs didn't like making content that way.
especially as each one would need to factor in a new cohort of new players
Like, R7 is probably easily the best rundown ever, and it doesn't seem like they could have made that in less time w/out their full staff working on getting it out the door.
LOL
So what you're saying is that R8 will be shit
What I'm saying is that R8 will take 6 months as usual.
Maybe my not-alt R7 theory is not that out there...
assuming they have at least 10 people on it.
r8 will probably be the best shit out there
either the worst or the best. Or anything inbetween
its gonna be like r6
Still wondering how they're gonna resolve the inevitable cosmetics issue :^)
elaborate?
its a non issue
the new stuff they add might be bad but their level design will likely continue imporving
whats wrong with the cosmetics?
because this will be the last rundown that the whole team gonna be working on
You can't earn all of them, probably.
There are more cosmetics than there are missions.
or completionists are gonna complain about not getting any unlocks
I NEED MY HATS
fun fact: there are full numbers about this issue on the wiki
petition to unlock all cosmetics with R8 completion
I spent waaayyy too long documenting it because ADHD brain go whee
ill sign dat shidd
i need muh hats
Imagine being the guy to never unlock scorpion helm because stars decided to align against you
im so glad i got that early on
Mashing X to Doubt
i needed that kovac stuff with the camoflauge cause it was awesome but i didnt get the pants i needed to finish awol with was hard af
i mean do you know what it is?
like
what it do tho
There are like 2 cut tools at least. But something tells me they will remain cut forever.
did they say theyd add a new tool but not what it is?
No.
its been know for a long time now but rather not get banned
Uh, how can i say this.
anyway there's enough cosmetics for 88 main sectors/random unlocks. There are current 71 main sectors (unlock opportunities) in the game (veterans had a total of 86 unlock opportunities)
was it that map tool that ive seen on mod pages\
R8 is going to have 17 expeditions :^)
what was the other cut toooool
or will i be shot for asking
(as in cutting stuff)
Something something flamethrower. Early prototypes of one. Never went anywhere.
even if its not good it would be cool to have
(it is a tool that serves one purpose and that is to cut things open)
Either way I think dragon's memeing. They won't add shit in R8.
i like stuff
no, more of a 'door destroyer' I think
welding tool was more of a map/objective thing
not really a tool tool
like we see in current game design
mapper yeah it kinda was
since bio didnt exist
but obviously bio its infinetly better since it actually helps on enemies
oh wait just saw an iceberg image
I see now
makes sense (both in concept and why it was cut)
yeah it was suppose to be a minigame
like hacking security doors
that got cut
many things got cut due to how the pacing was and stuff
I am 10cc biggest ally and enemy
You cant be 10cc biggest enemy
you arent banned more than 2 dozen times
and dont add a βyetβ
I would say Pitski, but he's more of a public enemy.
this is so funny
well i did say i was 10cc enemy and ally
pitsky was more of an enemy of the people
technically he was right tho
there was a bugged that it would give him that extra tool
Is that some obscure GTFO discord lore I'm not aware of.
but i dont think its gonna be a fun convo
Pitski is innocent 
extremely rare yes, likely to happen no
not saying hes innocent
man suck
big bongo
whats the hardest mission in this game?
depends on who you ask, but its between r5e1 and r4e1 generally
From what I've played so far 1&2 are generally the easiest and most straightforward. The As all seem to be generally easy throughout rundowns too.
"Easy"
R4 and R5 are considered the hardest rundowns no question
I have a question; are there any easily accesible rundowns ( in a r#ra or r#rb? ) that contain like bossfights. i kind of want to do one but dont want to look online becuase spoilers. im still kind of new ( about 30 hours,one completed rundown and one prisoner efficeny badge)
Do you want to know the specific levels to go to?
uuh
Or just if they exist?
yea if any exist in the a or b levels on any of the rundowns, i have progress on rundown 5 and 2 ( about to r#b1 on both)
not the specific levels cuz surpises are cool
but if they exist on any of the rundowns
A tier
oh
damn i mustve missed it
aight ive already done it so like, which a level and where maybe?
if you know ofc
|| R5A2 overload ||
anything i should worry about before i click it?
Its just the level and optional objective
have fun π
Pretty much all Es are contenders because they are E and some
C's and D's are pretty out there as well.
I still have the PTSD from R4C3
I don't wanna see
ever again
im enjoying shit not being easy, not tried to do a
yet
I love Dauda, the only man ill give a biotracker to
I'd say r4e1 is probably the hardest, r5e1 cell skip too, but they're different kinds of difficulty
AND THEY JUST NERFED R5E1 TOO
You have patience of an angel
I regreted my decision to give him bio after 20 minutes
ive heard the irishman and the brit too, but theres something about "this thing is pissing me off!"
that pushes me on
You mean alt version in general or it was recently nerfed?
They wanted to change it in ALT R5, but fucked it up and the change got pushed retroactively when they released ALT R6.
What specifically changed?
Begining's big angry bois got replaced with quick grabby bois
more resources
replaced 1 tank with snatcher (which is, well, you know, easier)
and then added 1 more snatcher but that doesn't really make up for anything
Well that's an F
Which tank got replaced?
More resources is surprsing. The level felt pretty good resource-wise.
Blood door giant error tank
Hmmmm. That's a bummer because that's really where the level ramps hard in difficulty (if not going for cell skip).
dumb question but how different are the alt rundowns from the OG ones?
im playing them chronologically and just wondering if the story and terminals are different in the alts
Logs are quite different if that's what you mean.
There are gameplay changes, but they are otherwise about the same.
neat
It really depends on your bar for what a change is.
ill probably find wiki stuff for OG entries after im done then
prob should do that before ALT gaming
silly question, do normal flashlights trigger the monster dudes?
yes
They react to flashlights and proximity walking.
Sprinting, breaking locks near them or failing a hack near them wakes them up immediately.
They also can sense crouching too when they go semi-aware (light up and start clicking).
ok thanks
phrog
Weapons have different flashlights
Some are stronger and make enemies react from further away
usually, the headlight one (the one you get while using melee for example) is the weakest
Sniper rifle and burst rifle have the strongest flashlights iirc
how do u link discord voice on #lfg-beginners ?
enter a voice chat, and next to the line with the vcs name (so like GTFO-2) there should be a little icon of a man with a plus
click on it and copy the link, then post it in your message
What r the best sentries for general use? I'd assume burst are best but not sure
generally burst is solid
sniper+bio requires some setups like long corridors
Not bringing a bio so burst it is. Thanks
not bringing bio should be a crime
I'm just a bad boy like that π
=(
What are the best guns to give to the bots? I just default to assault rifle and fast machine gun. Does it even really matter?
burst rifle and veruta mg
or burst rifle and revo
bots ignore charge up and they can burst cancel
but only if you play solo
dont give them heavy hitters unless you want to get heavy hitted
melee doesn't matter
Always bring bio 
If you value your life, do not give them shotguns or any weapon that could kill you in a single hit)
(I once gave vanilla bots burst cannon on r3c1 and they did very good with it but whatever)
Also, bots cheat with biotracker so give one of them that
Appreciate the answers. I usually play solo with the bots in A-B tier levels.
At this point im torn on this
Obviously they are giga broken with it pinging wise but it makes shβ¦. a meme vs beginners being suprised with it usually
Consider this: When they first got released I realized, and many others did, that the fact that they cant wake shit up, nor get infected, and can shoot even with fog or low visibility meant that some parts of some maps are so easy to do with bots that you might aswell do it with them, then call for real people if shit gets bad for them
Let me elaborate with a classic example: R6C2
in OG, to get a "easy" clear, I got to checkpoint with bots by basically giving them scraps
Then I called in people
R6D1 with reactor skip
even without infection resistance
bots absolutely carry the class 6
With a good enough group, I could have obtained the same result
But with bots I bypassed a part of the map, which gave me an advantage for the "second" part where I needed people
The mere fact that bots exist is a game changer
Class 6 is so easy with them
Actual nemesis fight is annoying tho as they like to tank the shots
Then you add the fact that they dont care about infection, fog, spitters, stealth or visibility
And yes they decimate ||shadows||
mainly because ||shadows are basically nerfed strikers that are invisible||
but they're visible for them
yeah, it took me like half an hour to do the fight
so they're just nerfed strikers to a bot
My bots just kept killing each other
Cost me the sacrifice mission
what how
My rection too
i dont think i ever had bots team kill each other
What guns did u gave them
and defo not very often
I don't know
Wave started and they came from one side and they shot into each other
Happened about 4-6 times
what mission was that?
What guns?
and yeah what guns
R2B1
Rifle and HSMG I think
oh yeah aacrat is heavy smg
special is
- Malatack HXC
- Buckland AF6
- Shelling Arid 5
are those 3 shotguns
that's HAR,Shotty,HCP
Found the issue
only the buckland
First of all don't use gun manufacturers - no one knows those.
High cal, pump action, etc
NEVER GIVE THEM STRONG GUNS
OK
so just use the name it as on top the picture
Yep
Just give bots burst rifle+veruta, really
only exception being MG because there's both arbalist and veruta
burst rifle and revo work well on solo
I am sad. You think he is Chinese. Not to mention if you don't know where he is from
I think he's from rainbow six
Harry from R6
He died
According to discord server of origin anyway
Wuxia 3: the red glass forest of flying tiger dragon jade daggers

I read that as "Harry from Rundown 6"
The name of the sticker is quite literally his last words
he's an easter egg, shhh
I feel like Diemos shot him because of that
Probably

Then again ubisoft has kinda just been "EXCEEDINGLY BORING" with story/lore/character Backgrounds etc

Many games that aren't what they used to be.
The books were alright tbh
Well those are the books
R6 Athena's sword was fun
Books in general have been better than the adaptations
The gameplay isn't boring, very entertainming watching my teamates that I swear have lost braincells do random stuff
I still remember playing Rogue's Spear
If I disconnected during a mission, how can I reconnect?
New lobby code
Fuck
I yeah I crashed
Wasnt host
Thats gonna be rough
No,only I crashed,they r still in mission
Into a more suitable host
And I wasnt host
Where do they find it? I asked em for it but they dont know where it is
They press escape and it will be at the bottom of settings
a giant red button
Alr I'll ask em, thanks a lot
ehhh
Restart game?
maybe
but if the button doesn't appear at all it's either a locked slot or something got fucked up somewhere
was it r1c1?
No r1a1
How should I find a team? Just connect to a group that is looking for players at the level I want?
Yes, and it's saying "Do not join voice channels without an invitation", so how?
Can you see a list of lfg channels in the channel list?
Yep
Cool, if you see a listing there for a level you want to play and there is space in the vc feel free to join
Ok, thanks
"Do not join voice channels without an invitation" just refers to joining voice channels that haven't advertised that they are looking for players in the lfg channels
Basically don't jump into channels that already have people without having a reason to do so in the form of an LFG message or a direct invite.
There are some people who love joining random channels with empty slots and start causing mischief, like spamming random sounds.
Or they'll join and get mad when you cannot talk
How so
I write it with my keyboard?
I forgor rule7 is
The fuq u mean write with keyboard?
Great
You have a special note dw
I don't have a answer
Dw i do not care
Iβm aware
why is r6ax called that?
noo, the x part
Extension
it's an extension level
To the rundown
came out a bit after normal r6
so still normal difficulty
Its called AX because it is lore focussed
A bit more tricky
cx it's a d level tho so b careful with that one i've heard things
I mean, it's the hardest between B1 and B2 imo.
probs cause, originally it was Bx, CX and DX
and it was like, there were already 4 D levels
and they didn't wanted a D5?
i kinda guess it's that but idk
the rundown screen looks nicer now tbf
When the extension levels released they were intended to be non-rundown related and instead focus on a side story (that was still related) with lore elements that would tie into R7. Back then they were located on the bottom left of the screen
makes sense
would u fuck the error hole
The hell is that kind of question
the one that asks
both
You dont get that 3rd choice
:[
if theres sleeping enemies around a corner
and i do a running jump
do they detect me midair or when i land
also what if i stop holding the run key while jumping
Unsure, but I believe they react to landings.
use the loot in the side zones and keep the reactor loot for as long as possible
Like wave 8 onwards
For the first 3 waves you can obv burn an ammo and a tool
Carbine/veruta, two players with choke/sniper/hel rifle for giants and hybrids
Bots or 4player?
Probably 2 wave clear, 1 sniper, 1 versatile.
also what part you mostly die?
after wave 7
first time we died at extraction
after that wave 8
after that idk
after that wave 7 because we used up all our ammo
If you don't waste to much time you should always have time to list res of every zone and ping your ammo's
You should have more than enough for the level in that case
You can pull the circle scout room and the terminal room and still pass. There's more than enough ammo n tool
also any advice on using the biotracker well for waves? It's often hard to get the entire wave
either i get 3 enemies or by the time i can scan everything they've arrived at my face and are ready to french kiss me
Are you setting up on bridge or doing the 1 way funnel
1 way funnel near doors
Yeah, it's purely luck and practice at that point. You just scan last possible second and hope it doesn't glitch.
glitch?
I think bridge is easier with pub. 1 way funnel if people reload odd it can get weird. Plus sniping easier on bridge
Can this game stop shitting itself for 3 seconds
what kinda glitch does the bio have
Bio tracker is quirky sometimes and pings all the wrong enemies
Or maybe theres a mechanic I don't understand
Low skill level?
In my experience it refuses to ping at close range.
Some enemies get skipped for some reason.
I think you are missing the bio pings
I genuinely have no idea. I hate using bio and bots utterly spoiled me.
also can i ask about how the terminal actually works
I saw on youtube some guy did like
LIST U _49 and it listed all resources in zone_49
why does this command work
how do all the shortcuts work on terminals
works cause U is a letter than is it most objective and important items
its a filter, for Utility and all that type of stuff
I assume because U is a very rare letter.
it lists keys and stuff
List is a filter
E because its ZONE, u can do ONE, NE and E with the number of the zone
and it works the same
U is in the word resources
That is why it gives you resources
so
Key_orange_999
And also U as in secUrity, which also lists keys.
never seen that happenin
We saw it the other day
u could but idk why would u ksks
just trying to understand
Yeah
ok so what about all the other type of stuff you can do with list
List U E_###
You can also type list u 690 and it will give you extra data
are there other useful filters
Yes.
Personally my commands of choice is LIST RES ZONE_123.
I know I don't have to type Zone fully, but it doesn't bother me and I like typing that word.
what data
It will catch anything that contains 690
Like if you use e_###
You get anything with that data
So if you can use your mind as a filter
You can use less characters
also how did people even figure out list resources
LIST KEY
the terminal doesn't mention that word does it
I think it might?
yes
It does
If you just LIST ZONE it will classify all the items found.
Security i think
Also the keys all contain the substring KEY in their name too :^)
oooohhh
Resources are just that.
Keys are SECURITY
And as we recently learned some items are classified as IDENTIFICATION
Which ones
PIDs and IDs
All of them
We had a guy who couldn't terminal the objective in... R2C2?
Not as cool
Turned out they were IDENTIFICATION
:D
are the burst rifle and assault rifle ok
Yeah
yeah
Vanilla AR is kinda left behind, but it's not bad. Just not amazing.
Burst if somewhat of an upgrade damage potential wise, but... It's burst.
i want something versatile for d2
i always feel out of place with an smg because the sightlines are long
Try new improved Bullpup.
really?
hm ok
the reload is still long
yeah but feels more normal
Negligible base damage difference between AR and bullpup
Or try 556 Rifle
AR is in a weird spot more so with Heavy SMG basically only having a bit less range.

Bullpup still fills a weird niche of a long range automatic main. Which isn't most scenarios. Better than before but not enough to warrant me taking it.
Wait
