dry pumice
#

It needs more bullets. Like a lot more.

#

I think another 400 should so the trick.

craggy pier
#

Might be too much

latent obsidian
#

Probably the maths and testing on this has been done already

icy cave
dry pumice
#

Just make it exactly 1000 bullets at 100% and we can start experimenting from there.

latent obsidian
#

But I wonder how 2 burst compares to 1 burst one auto for holding a wave

dry pumice
#

What is it right now? 700?

craggy pier
#

701 or something

#

750?

#

Somewhere round thete

dry pumice
#

751

craggy pier
#

Hah

#

I was half right twice

dry pumice
#

1000 bullets is an exactly +33% improvement.

craggy pier
#

One thousand bullets in a single gun sounds fun.

icy cave
dry pumice
#

Big enough to get close to fixing it, and then we can experiment more from there.

craggy pier
#

+33 is a big percentage

dry pumice
#

And even then Mr Chill said he wouldn't use it even if it was infinite, but I don't think he thought it through.

craggy pier
#

Then again burst consumes like 3x less ammo because hesdshots

latent obsidian
#

I'm gonna go off half dick here but the problem with auto sentries is that after they can't stagger the wave any longer enough enemies will pass them almost as if they weren't there. With an extra burst sentry it could help reduce enemy numbers enough for the auto sentry to stagger a larger amount of enemies, PERHAPS while being more tool efficient. This will also dribble a few more enemies towards the team who can spend some ammo to get the tool/ammo more on par than if you had 2 burst sentries doing everything

dry pumice
#

Doesn't matter

#

HEL sentry works best in a tandem with other sentries.

#

It holds the wave and the other sentry massacres it.

craggy pier
#

X

dry pumice
#

But in return for such a niche function it really should use like no tool at all

icy cave
dry pumice
#

I did that in... R3B2 I think? Spread the cells.

#

One or two guys made it past.

latent obsidian
#

Really bringing auto sentry is only gonna make you spend more ammo and maybe less tool, in theory? But there aren't really many times you are actually rationing tool like that

craggy pier
#

Wait guys holy shit idea

#

What if we lowered the fire rate instead

It can easily stagger due yo the massive multi even at a lower rpm

#

And it won't use up as much ammo

#

But it will still stagger perfectly

dry pumice
#

Eh, I guess it could work.

#

But personally I just really like the sound it makes.

craggy pier
#

Lie to us

dry pumice
#

I feel safe when i hear the brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt.

craggy pier
#

Reduce rpm keep the sound

icy cave
craggy pier
#

I think this could work

#

Lots of stagger gets wasted rn because it keeps shooting tons of ammo while the enemy is already in soft stagger

#

Reducing fire rate will allow it to use the stagger more efficiently

latent obsidian
#

It should rotate its firing angle back and forth like a garden sprinkler

craggy pier
#

I also like that idea

#

I think i suggested it before

#

Artek told me no because he's a meanie head 😑

dry pumice
#

Did I? I like that idea too, although it might have some issues.

#

Does it still do that when there's only one enemy? What about fliers? Does it lose ability to shoot vertically?

craggy pier
#

You said something like

#

"We aint getting more reworks, this IS the rework"

#

Talking about hel and bodyshot

icy cave
dry pumice
#

I'm just saying devs are not putting more work in

craggy pier
#

I think it should have a 0.01s lock on time and switch targets when they stagger

#

Code it in

#

Ship it to live

#

Easy dub

#

(clueless)

icy cave
craggy pier
#

Like make it unable to target staggered enemies

#

That sounds simple enough

#

I think

#

As a non programmer this sounds like an elegant solution

latent obsidian
#

I mean they had a problem for a while where the burst sentry just missed chargers, right

#

when their head got blown off?

craggy pier
#

Idunno

latent obsidian
#

Maybe both, I recall seeing a video where the burst was missing on a charger wave

#

but it might be cherry picking an elevation thing idk

icy cave
#

I mean it could be. nothing surprises me at this point

icy cave
#

checkpoints are also still not fixed

#

Almost 2 years now boys!

latent obsidian
#

checkpoints are worse in some respects

#

I've had way more desync and late opening issues with them recently

soft crater

#

With those issues the "just ignore them" argument doesn't even work any more. You don't need to use them to get screwed over

icy cave
#

people need a kick in the nuts sometimes

craggy pier
#

Believe me

#

I get it

hidden ridge
#

And I also kinda agreed

craggy pier
#

It would make sense

#

Shotgun is also kinda shit

#

It misses a lot

hidden ridge
#

so that you're sure that it's gonna slow nearly all of the wave if placed correctly

craggy pier
#

i think the idea of not allowing it to target staggered enemies is the best possible thing they could do to it

#

it would solve basically everything about it
No more ammo wasted trying to stagger already staggered enemies
Can hold back the wave substantially better because it staggers many enemies and not one

#

and the speedy lock on time i suggested would make it so nothing could get past without catching some lead

#

probably really hard to code it though

olive robin
#

Replace auto sentry with radial sentry

#

It just shoots 360 stun

dry pumice
#

Just copypaste stagger, hel and body aim to shotgun and its a win

meager lion
# craggy pier probably really hard to code it though

Depends, you could just code that it looks at "Agents (enemies) that are not in stagger animation" in it's field of view and targets an unstaggered enemy at random (or closest) until that enemy staggers which then resets the targeting and the cycle repeats. Doesn't seem that hard to me from a programming standpoint, but hey, I'm no game dev πŸ˜….

ocean spindle

...

#

i just arrived

#

it is about auto right

spark lodge
#

hi, must we clear all other maps in R4 to be able to play R4E1?

ocean spindle
#

yep

#

u dont need all sectors but all maps completed

meager lion
spark lodge
#

thanks

ocean spindle
#

:3

meager lion
ocean spindle
#

theres a reason all sentries dont just keep aiming at corpses

#

same happens with auto but, harder cause it doesnt kill a lot

#

and u never see it with sniper or bursts cause those shoot not so fast its a problem

meager lion
#

Hmm I see, so the command to fire a shot comes after the check if its alive but if it dies in that time the shot still goes through. Is that correct?

ocean spindle
#

i idk the specifics i mean i talk from what i see ingame
i woul guess thats the case but shottie sentry is really the only one i see it happenin to

meager lion
#

Again, im no gamedev but its interesting to me xD

#

Ah yeah

dry pumice
spark lodge
craggy pier
icy cave
#

no matter the rundown

#

But if other maps are a problem... you not ready for E1 tbh

wind wren
#

I just had a giant striker go for the tongue attack and then immediately melee smack me when I went in for the hit, can they actually do that or did I misread the animation?

ebon jolt
#

happens all the time

#

I am not sure if they are supposed to do so tho

wind wren
#

Thanks for confirming : (

#

So is there even a actually safe way to 1v1 them w bat if I cant stay behind them? Softstagger doesnt seem to last long enough for bat to recharge

dry pumice
#

Bait the melee and strike between animations.

wind wren
tardy ingot
#

@civic wave

civic wave
#

you

wind wren
#

I've never had this issue w hammer cuz limbbreaks but w bat I'm not good enough to get limbbreaks on all hits

dry pumice
#

No, not tongue animation.

#

Bait the melee.

wind wren
#

Oh

dry pumice
#

You bait them into going for a punch and dodge by pixels of hitbox.

wind wren
#

I read it as bait then melee my bad

dry pumice
#

Then you just wait and go for a smack when he stops.

wind wren
#

Alr I'll try that instead of baiting tongue

dry pumice
#

I did that once, I think.

#

It's a lot of work and not worth it.

wind wren
#

So Im better off baiting tongue and just hoping?

dry pumice
#

No, you're better off not using bat.

wind wren
#

Damn

dry pumice
#

You pick bat or dagger and you're excluded from giant parties, unless as a backup.

ocean spindle
#

lol

sturdy glen
#

Pretty sure you can still play chicken with bat

ocean spindle
#

u can play chicken with knife

dry pumice
#

You can, but it's risky.

sturdy glen
#

Just need to swing early

dry pumice
#

Dodging that 40 dmg by pixels.

sturdy glen
#

Client is always funny

#

Nah

#

I mean just hitting them

#

Never bait melee

#

Even as host it's a waste of time

dry pumice
#

So just stunlock them, you mean?

civic wave
#

melee bait normally only happens if you're fucking up

#

otherwise you can just hit and run with staggers (if needed)

sturdy glen
#

Not exactly stunlock

#

Just spend all unstaggered time out of melee range

#

and smack them everytime they try to do something

dry pumice
#

Well, that's what the guy was trying to do, and he gets punched anyway.

civic wave
#

that's probably not down to the big striker, tbh

sturdy glen
#

Failed execution

dry pumice
#

Because kiss cancel is a thing apparently

sturdy glen
#

It is easier with hammer cuz of range

#

But if you swing early it should never be a problem

dry pumice
#

Early relative to what

civic wave
#

there are times where you can have an enemy lick and punch at the same time

#

but it's quite hard to do

sturdy glen
#

The timing with hammer

#

You can play chicken in this game

#

And always win

#

That's just how it works

wind wren
sturdy glen
#

I can show you what I mean in like 2 hours when I'm out of class

#

It's especially noticeable with bbcs

ebon jolt
#

baiting meele as client is kinda fucked you have to get used to it. But as host it isn't that hard

sturdy glen
#

Just

#

DON'T

civic wave
#

there isn't really a circumstance in which you're forced to bait melees

sturdy glen
#

I swtg this is how you get your teammates killed

#

Exactly pachi

#

The only time you do it is hybrids

civic wave
#

I mean sure if you're playing OG r4e1 and need to kill a giant right by a door while code searching in zone 515 and mess up your hammers, go bait melees to avoid scream and room wake

sturdy glen
#

Because they're little bitch babies

civic wave
#

Otherwise wtf are you doing

sturdy glen
#

And even hybrids it's just for solo no scream

#

So niche

civic wave
#

I still melee bait hybrids because it makes it easier to hit occi/kill them faster

#

also stops them from spewing

sturdy glen
#

Faster is fair but it's still unnecessary

#

Can already do the same thing as giant melee

civic wave
#

100%

#

you go in, get a hit, go hide, run in when it's safe

sturdy glen
#

Byeah, idgaf if ppl want to be right and say it is useful (not directed at you pachi), but please never make the advice to a new person trying to melee a giant be bait melee

#

It's just horrible advice

civic wave
#

I'd never suggest anyone go melee bait a giant

#

terrible idea if you're going for a kill, you only do it if stuff is going wrong and you need to stop scream

ebon jolt
civic wave
#

idk that sounds like being prepared to die to a vending machine when getting a snack

sturdy glen
#

How

civic wave
#

in normal circumstances the giant won't get to punch

sturdy glen
#

When tf does it save you

#

Just don't be in melee range??

dry pumice
#

The mans using a bat, so...

civic wave
#

where's badger when you need him

#

the man would have a solo 2 giants in a row clip with every melee

upper ginkgo
#

anyone melee bait giants so they can reposition to shoot their back?

civic wave
#

no, i just shoot them because there's enough ammo in the mission to shoot everything πŸ‘

upper ginkgo
#

i'm not spending an extra bullet for long stagger

#

add it to the style guide

sturdy glen
#

I only shoot the giant hips

civic wave
#

stop repositioning to the back, too fancy

sturdy glen
#

So I break no limb

upper ginkgo
#

shooting giants w/o back damage physically pains me

soft crater

Section 14a will be this

ashen frigate
#

The stagger-machine

dry pumice
#

Feels risky

#

But apparently works, so...

ocean spindle
#

and with no back dmg

#

cause i think u break limbs with one hit with back dmg

dry pumice
#

Bat doing bat things.

sturdy glen
#

if you swing early

#

it will always work

#

its scary yea

#

especially as client

#

real answer is just not bringing bat

#

hammer you dont even get fucked over by being client/is a lot less scary

neon gust
#

but its a sidegrade from hammer

sturdy glen
#

spear you dont have to be in range period

#

just gotta aim for limbs

#

I would showcase playing chicken with giant chargers sprinting at you

#

but I cant think of any levels with early ones

wide mirage
#

yo we have a guy whos been afk for like 20 min any ideas of what we can do to continue the mission without leaving

#

or ways to kick him

dry pumice
# wide mirage or ways to kick him

Unfortunately not a thing without a mod.
If he's really gone - your best bet is to restart the mission, really. Nothing you can do otherwise - door scans require full team always.

#

Can you shut down the ||overload error alarm|| on r6d3?

ashen frigate
#

Yes

slow stone
ocean spindle
#

dyin :D
jk

ashen frigate
#

Well, you are supposed to type in a DEACTIVATE_ALARMS in a terminal

#

There are two such terminals in this expedition

#

But one of them is a bit faster to get to :)

slow stone
#

Alright, which ones are they?

#

Or where are they located ^^

ashen frigate
#

Well, there is one three zones inside the Main security door

#

and another one two zones inside, but you need a key to get to it

#

(the key being further inside :) )

slow stone
#

alright, thanks for the help!

past mesa
#

Has two security doors

#

A class 6 shadow and a free door if you have done overload

#

The free door has the deactivate alarm terminal

slow stone
#

Do you know the zone numbers or is it possible to go wrong way? were running this first time with a frind so dont want to completely go wrong :D

ashen frigate
#

What Jish said, basically

#

Once you get through the big sleeping room, keep on further. On your right you will find a door with an alarm, but push ahead. Then on your left another one should be unlocked at that point

modern bane
#

Anyone know if theres a fix for bots not entering a scan?

#

I play with 3 people and 1 bot, and occasionally we get a 4th person in

#

But we can't do R4C1 because the bot keeps refusing to enter the Class V alarm scan

#

Happens randomly- sometimes the bot functions and sometimes it doesn't. Seems 50/50

ocean spindle
#

the host press ESC, puts the option to 'players only' or 'locked' kicking the bot, and then do the scan as is or re-add them puttin the option back to 'players and bots' or 'bots only'

#

it like resets em

slow stone
ashen frigate
#

Zone 292

#

Has the other Terminal

#

It is initially locked, when you start the Expedition, but if you complete the Overload objective it unlocks, and allows you to stop the ongoing Err://Alarm

remote crest
#

coming back after a long break, what are the rundowns that can be finished solo with bots and what aren't?

ocean spindle
#

with bots... only r1, maybe r3 but c1 its hard as fuck

#

and, thats it i think

past mesa
hidden ridge
#

r3d1 IMHO ain't but whatever

ocean spindle
remote crest
hidden ridge
#

vanilla bots I think it's r2 until r2d2 (I think someone did r2d2 with vanilla bots, still have to see a r2e1), all of r1, r3 until r3d1, r4 you can pe everything up to r4c3

#

I assume r4c1 extreme and r4c2 pe are doable with vanilla bots but I never tried

ocean spindle
#

problem is some levels are doable, but not hard, the next thing after

#

specially w/o full knowledge of gtfo and a lot of skill

#

R1 with bots its, fine enough, u can do it, c1 is gonna be a challenge but u can do it

hidden ridge
remote crest
#

I'm still going to attempt all solo with bots but I'll be more careful on the suggested ones that are hard thanks!

hidden ridge
#

Basically if Url wants to do all of the game with vanilla bots, yeah no.

kindred storm
#

Heya
4th round and we didnt win yet
what do artefacts do?
what are some base tips of you guys?

tardy ingot
#

It rly depends on how good you are personally, how much you know bots and if you intend to do minor cheese

remote crest
#

my main problem right now is how to handle Tanks solo if you guys got any experience about it

tardy ingot
#

cuz most levels can be done with bots

ocean spindle
#

and some base tips
well practice stealth, if u see ur wakin up a lot of rooms

#

do the training of course if u havent

#

um try out every gun cause they all got uses

#

and dont try to go all guns every room, cause that usually leads to death

kindred storm
#

the first one should be R1A1 ?

craggy pier
#

if you want you could just bring cfoam and mines for the alerts and deal with them like that

hidden ridge
#

Scouts die with full bonk to the head (if hammer jump before hitting) if you dont want to test your chances you can stealth kill as many enemies you can then sniper the head off

kindred storm
craggy pier
#

yes

hidden ridge
craggy pier
#

also you do not necessarily need to kill sleepers

hidden ridge
#

For the second alarm they're only going to come from the very big door, so foam and mine that door (you can do the first scan with all the team, then foam guy goes to the door they're breaking and keeps foaming it to earn even more time, while the other 3 do the scans)

#

Near to the key zone there's a zone with no enemies and some extra resources, go there if you're dry on shit

#

Afterwards ||get to the HSU, scan, then go back to the start while fighting the enemies that spawn||

craggy pier
#

also terminals

#

i hope you know how to use em cause they help lots

#

the best command in this game is "LIST U [ZONE]"

kindred storm
#

not rlly

#

we only play 1h

craggy pier
#

It'll show everything that's usable in a zone

#

you should spend some time learning the commands

#

they cut down on searching a lot

#

and that means you need to go in less areas, kill less sleepers, less chances to mess up

kindred storm
#

do enemies get stronger the mroe ppl are in the lobby?

craggy pier
#

Nope

ocean spindle
#

no

craggy pier
#

QUERY [ITEM] will show detailed information about an item regardless of where it is
LIST [FILTER] [ZONE] will list all the items that fit the filter in a zone
PING [ITEM] will show you exactly where an item is, if you're in the same zone as it

#

these are the three golden commands

kindred storm
#

whats the filter?

craggy pier
#

anything you want

#

RESOURCE, DOOR, PACK,

#

SECURITY

hazy wedge
#

Like if you want to list something specific like List Key or List Cell

craggy pier
#

Any tag that an item can have like security, passage, resource

#

or any part of an item's name

hazy wedge
kindred storm
#

idk the names we to new xd

craggy pier
#

So if you do like
LIST RESOURCES
It'll show you all the resources available during your current expedition

#

it used the filter to show you only consumable packs like ammo, health, tool

#

you can also shorten filters. LIST RES is the same as LIST RESOURCES

hazy wedge
#

You can also shorten the word Resources to just Re for faster output

#

What he said lol

craggy pier
#

πŸ‘‘ LIST U E_XYZ πŸ‘‘

kindred storm
#

whats that

#

oh damn so much "hacking" xd

craggy pier
#

LIST U(anything usable like resources or keys) in E(short for zone) with whatever number

sturdy glen
#

list will filter anything that has an exact match to the string you entered

#

this goes for as small as you want it to

hazy wedge
#

It also works on objective items. If you are looking for personell ids, you can do List PID zone_#/e_#

sturdy glen
#

so typing a single letter will filter anything with that letter in it

#

however this goes for every part of the item, which items have a couple parts in the terminal

hidden ridge
#

list E_201 will also list key_purplE_201 and so on

sturdy glen
#

item name, type of item, location/zone_number

craggy pier
#

also press tab to autocomplete commands or item names for less time spent typing and less typos

hidden ridge
#

rare but can happen

sturdy glen
#

it will try to match from all of the parts

hidden ridge
#

If you want to be 100% sure you can LIST RES ZONE_XX (instead of XX put zone number)

sturdy glen
#

so you can combine things, like they are saying

hidden ridge
#

like LIST RES ZONE_11

sturdy glen
#

ie you can search for a specific item type inside a specific zone

hazy wedge
sturdy glen
#

or you can search for any item with a specific letter in it in it in a zone

#

basically, its very open ended

#

query and ping on the other hand are not

#

they require exact match of an items name

hazy wedge
#

And if you forget any of those, just type commands/cmds into the terminal

craggy pier
#

query also shows a bunch of information

#

foooor example

#

You list the resources in a room with a bunch of sleepers. There's ammo there. Is it actually worth it to try and grab it?

Querying the ammopack will show you how many uses it has, which can greatly improve your decision making

#

Could be a 1 use or a 4 use and you have no idea, but the terminal knows

#

if it's 1 use, might as well leave it alone. If it's 4, definitely worth it

hazy wedge
#

And when you ping the item, it will show you the area letter, and if you add a space and β€œ-T” it will do a continuous ping of the item

hazy wedge
craggy pier
#

id argue list is just peak terminal hackerman

past mesa
#

def not annoying to use

jagged shore
#

I wish so much that it would continue pinging after you've left

hidden ridge
#

I NEVER teach that shit to people exactly because I dont want anyone to use that

Drop in, list U, query everything, you now know where everything is

past mesa

#

Ping -t

craggy pier
#

ping t sucks

#

you need to stay on the terminal and it's boring

hidden ridge
#

I had a guy in og r4c3 ping -t while he wanted me to stealth the zones and get the key

past mesa
#

it sucks to use it sucks to be on the reciving end

hidden ridge
#

was like 4 rooms of me hearing a distant ping while hacking locks

#

for fuck's sake

past mesa
#

^^^^^^^

sturdy glen
#

idk why they made -t require you to sit in the terminal

hazy wedge
#

That must be lovely hehe_FB

sturdy glen
#

terminal storage would be so fucking funny if it didnt

hidden ridge
#

I woke up the last giant

sturdy glen
#

you would HAVE to return to the terminal to turn that shit off

hidden ridge
#

and I was "nice so we can wipe"

past mesa

the only time i have used -t is to annoy the fuck out of my team mate by constant ping a cell they are carring

craggy pier

it makes sense for terminals in general

Ohh that's different from the you have to be at it that -t has to me

is what we are referring to

i really like the touch that far away objects drop pings sometimes

#

can i somehow locate it better then just the zone?

hidden ridge
#

so no, either get on a terminal that allows you to ping it, otherwise query is all you can do

kindred storm
#

is there any sort of leveling?

hidden ridge
#

you get boosters but they go away when you use them, whether you finished the map or not

kindred storm
#

we did it
r1a1
it says completed 1, - ,- ,

#

whats that

hidden ridge
#

sector completions [MAIN, SECONDARY, OVERLOAD, PRISONER EFFICIENCY] but only rundowns 4-5-6-7 have sectors

#

up to 0.15 (15%) per picked up articact of that type

craggy pier
#

The closest thing to "leveling" this game has are boosters

#

They're one time use (usually) and give some sort of buff

#

They can get quite strong

#

I was actually shocked when I first opened the game and had access to everything

#

I thought you'd unlock guns through gameplay

#

I also expected levels to be randomised

#

Im new, where is this code im supposed to copy from the matchmaking screen?

ocean spindle
#

then theres a button to copy it at the very right of the screen

craggy pier
#

Oh ok

#

Thanks

ocean spindle

if u wanna join a lobby from a code, just copy it and go into gtfo, there, under TRAINING the button to join should appear w/o needin to paste it anywhere

why do my sniper rifle headshots not instakill regular big strikers occasionally? not sure if the falloff range can affect it but they were definitely within 60m

latent obsidian
elfin lava
#

oh, that could be it, the head being gone made me unsure whats the issue

#

also, i just got a mod that lets me see the actual stats of the weapons, the sniper has penetration on it like the hel weaponry?

latent obsidian
#

No, the sniper doesn't have pen

elfin lava
#

huh, shit mod

#

wait nvm im just confusing the abbreviations it uses lmfao, my bad

#

thanks!

latent obsidian
#

np πŸ™‚

craggy pier
#

It's one of those game logic things

latent obsidian
#

A bullet through the brain is more damaging than simply severing the brain's connection to the body PirateSimon

craggy pier
#

Additionally

#

The head hitbox is still there

#

If you wanna take a blind guess and try to hit it, you can

#

It's a good thing to have in your pocket as a skill when using sniper

elfin lava
#

but i got the hitmarker

#

in the same mission i came from with the first question

#

thats crazy lmfao

craggy pier
#

Yeah

elfin lava
#

also, i saw some stuff in patch notes about spear so was trying it out that mission, it seems it has "active frames" of the hit, can you position yourself next to two enemies and swipe them both at once?

craggy pier
#

Yes

elfin lava
#

like it can hit for a very long time after you actually release it compared to other weapons

craggy pier
#

Ye

#

Same for knife

elfin lava
#

damn, im discovering this stuff after 50hrs

elfin lava
#

like youd need two dudes doing some human centipede shit to get that doublekill xd

craggy pier
#

I have never heard of knife killing two things per swing

elfin lava
craggy pier
#

I meant the knife also hits late

#

Almost by a second

elfin lava
#

yeah ik, noticed after failing to knife my first dozen scouts

craggy pier
#

Knife hitbox is also funky

#

It originates from your side

elfin lava
#

its kinda satisfying now that im used to it

#

but its such a shit melee weapon πŸ’€

craggy pier
#

Its held back by the hitbox imo

#

It's a fine choice

#

Fly through smalls and go afk for giants

elfin lava
#

you might be right, it just feels like shooting yourself into the leg if youre knifing in a duo team, i dont have much premade experience

#

mostly on discord to lurk out info lol

craggy pier
#

Usually one guy will take knife and the rest take sledge

elfin lava
#

chargers risky in clumped rooms

craggy pier
#

Yeah

elfin lava
#

did those spear buffs change any breakpoints btw? i rly dont like the feel of the sledge for some reason and i dislike the changes to bat somewhat, the light stagger was the thing that kept it interesting

craggy pier
#

Nop

elfin lava
#

xd whats the point then

craggy pier
#

Spear's still the spear

elfin lava
#

gotta charge 0.5ms less, finally

craggy pier
#

With some additional small buffs

elfin lava
#

ig, its prob hard to make every weapon interesting in its own way

#

when its just 4 flavors of stick

craggy pier
#

They're pretty unique

#

But lets not get into spear balance discussion #736183

elfin lava
#

yep, deadass

#

nothing is being achieved in that

#

anyways tyvm for the answers

#

the invisible head thing got me fcked up xd

latent obsidian
#

People using spear?? 😑 😑 😑 essay time

hardy grotto
#

Someone tell them hammer is better

native sun
dry pumice
# elfin lava xd whats the point then

Mostly just more reliable charge kills on smalls, slightly better damage on quick tap headshots (you can do full charge to body then do one quick tap to the head and that will finish a striker).
Giant occi is ~78 dmg, which means a hammer buddy can do flanking 40 and then its 1 quick tap to finish the job.
Reliable Occi + Headshot kill against giant shooters and maybe hybrids?
Locks break at 60% charge and not 100% like they used to.
The pseudo-sprint just gives better control of your character's movement states more than anything.

Overall just quality of life improvements across the board, but nothing ground breaking.

native sun
#

Spear changes have it bodyshot + light-tap headshot on strikers, which is pretty nice, but when hammer has bodyshot already kinda meh

Could've sworn it didn't require back, but maybe I don't remember the goofy tech.

native sun
craggy pier
#

I wanna be a knife main because I'm quirky like that

#

But hammer does what knife does with so much less effort

#

I guess knife is better in a panic if you're very gamer and keep landing headshots every 0.5 seconds

native sun
#

Knife is cool and fun, just gets rough on later levels where stealth killing giants becomes a soft requirement

hidden ridge
#

I'm pretty sure you need 2 backstabs, yes?

native sun
#

Ye, it's doable, but definitely reduces the scenarios in which it is safe to go for it

hidden ridge
#

Yeah I imagined so

soft crater
hidden ridge
#

So if something else wakes it up and it's mid-waking up animation I'd need 3 backstabs? πŸ€”

native sun
#

Yup, pretty feels bad

hidden ridge
#

I'm not familiar with how it's stealth hit bonus works

craggy pier
#

Btw

hidden ridge
soft crater
#

Stealth bonus is basically another back bonus stack

#

But not exclusive to back

#

Iirc

#

Another 2x ( this is for charged hits exclusively)

craggy pier
#

What's the deal with aggro not happening after i bludgeon a sleeper that woke right next to others

#

Why don't they wake

native sun
# craggy pier Why don't they wake

Close range aggro only applies to hitting a sleeping enemy, not to killing awoken enemies. So if they're already awake, you can bonk em as much as you want.

craggy pier
#

Now that is some dumb shit

#

But highly appreciated

soft crater
#

It's a funny mechanic some people make use of to kill baby strikers right next to mothers
Or just nearby other enemies in general.

hidden ridge
#

I remember someone explaining to me that the proxy aggro only triggers once or something like that

native sun
#

Can definitely result in some goofy scenarios, but the alternative of straight up not being allowed to clutch if you get an unlucky aggro would not be fun

#

Why did mars havebnuckear weapons

hidden ridge
#

A long, long time ago

#

Like in Alpha

#

Even falling from a minuscule step from the stairs

#

was basically room up

native sun
#

First alpha had enemies insta scream and guaranteed long range aggro, and guess what, very hard core, also very not fun

craggy pier
#

That's dumb

#

Guaranteed long range aggro

#

Wow

hidden ridge
#

I said falling but I meant literally moving to the side of the staircase to skip, like 2 steps

craggy pier
#

I gotcha

#

Landing was noisy

hidden ridge
#

Then it became bunnyhop season

craggy pier
#

Maybe it wasn't a mistake after all

native sun
#

I think current jumping/landing interactions with stealth are very fair

hidden ridge
soft crater
hidden ridge
#

As in, very few enemies, super few ammo, they wake up easier, big ass maps you get lost in

soft crater
#

As a host sprint jump landing always Wakes up enemies

With a team

hidden ridge
#

No tool other than biotracker, only weapons are Pistol and Shotgun

native sun
#

@hidden ridge You may be interested in time's hardcore mod, though most of the hardcore part comes from hud and player changes - not a rundown mod

soft crater
#

But for whatever reason. As a client. Sprint jump landing from outside detection has consistently only put sleepers into throbbing state for me

hidden ridge
craggy pier
#

With a team a solid 50% of the match is banter

#

Instead of being spooked

#

You're clearing rooms while talking about what gun is your favourite or about the socioeconomic status of South Africa

Ngl as host

#

Guns just feel better

craggy pier
#

Jee i wonder why

hidden ridge
#

As Host I can slide behind a striker and occiput before he hits me

#

As client much, much less often

soft crater
#

I guess stealth is more reliably accurate ( some people don't like that sleeping states aren't as accurate if you're a client)

hidden ridge
#

What I hate the most about not being host has to do with kiting/not getting hit

soft crater
#

Some friends of mine only ever play host and they hate sleeper states not being consistent when they're client

minor fractal
#

What I hate most about not being host is the tiny amount of sniper melee that lets shooters dodge DMR shots.

hidden ridge
latent obsidian
#

I've been spoiled with consistent host in my static so any desync as client really throws me off now

hidden ridge

And I refuse to stealth kill shit if I full charge and get no feedback

Approximately how big is the radius where sleepers can get triggered by walking/killing other sleepers etc?

tardy ingot
civic wave
#

Long range aggro is very long

#

Walking is not as long, you can generally feel it out

dry pumice
#

Walking is like 5-7 meters, long range wake up is like 15+, maybe 20.

Spoiler: my ability to measure distance with my eyes is crap

I don't think you can really be given a specific measurement and your fov will make you perceive the distance as shorter or longer

Almost everything is placebo except 99% infection resist and stacking supply efficiency.

And +5% on DMR.

dry pumice

Maybe, but HELrev is already low key busted.

elfin lava

high key, true

native sun
elfin lava

like should i be the person applying all the supplies ig is the question

#

or whoever has the booster that is

native sun
#

It applies to supplies you distribute, not ones you receive

dry pumice
native sun
#

So the person with supply efficiency should grab the packs and give em out

elfin lava
#

lmao

dry pumice
#

Including.

native sun
#

It applies to ones you give yourself too

dry pumice
#

Every supply you give to anyone with a pack gets boosted.

icy cave

Just don't go too far with it. if you can grab something just grab it

If you plan your route in R2D1 you can do the level with minimal fog diving, but it kinda requires knowing which zones are the ones with deep fog

I think R4C2 might be the only level I remember the zone numbers of due to listing the collectibles in each one
