[craggy pier]

So running away in a straight like is quite literally the worst thing you can do

Sleepers will hit you because their infinite range

[hardy grotto]

Yes

[native sun]

Yes. You'll dodge like 1/10 attacks by getting out of range within the window. But you'll get hit by the other 9/10. Zig zagging away probably gets you hit by like 4 or 5 out of 10. Much better.

[craggy pier]

What about sprinting through them

Instead of away, into the crowd and past

[hardy grotto]

soft collision makes that not so ideal

[native sun]

It's pretty good, maybe like 1/10 hit on the run through. But it is only good if the other side of them is a nice place to be.

And yes, if they're too grouped the soft collision will make it much worse.

[hardy grotto]

Id only ever do this if I plan on staggering the enemies before they lick

[native sun]

^ Walk away in a straight line while shooting back = pretty good

[hardy grotto]

you just have to make sure you stagger every single one that’s about to tongue

[craggy pier]

Yeah im asking because sometimes I don't have any boolets

And uh

Yeah

I have to learn that thing where you slide reload and jump so you keep moving in a speedy way while reloading

[hardy grotto]

it’s not entirely necessary

Depending on where I am if I need to reload I will walk in a circle as I reload

or I back away so I can reload

[native sun]

Slide cancel jump reload is definitely good, but it's not a magic win button, need to learn the other fundamentals too.

[hardy grotto]

how have the attempts been elbowguard

[craggy pier]

Done nothing today

[hardy grotto]

I see

[craggy pier]

Prolly wont for a while

[hardy grotto]

How much more did you try yesterday

[craggy pier]

2 more after the 4 wave

Died at wave 1 then wave 3

[civic wave]

I'm pretty tempted to give it a shot myself even though I know I don't have the time right now and it wouldn't be the most fun

[torpid token]

Does this apply to all melee attacks except tanks?What I mean is distance

[native sun]

Yup. All 'tongue' attacks have identical hit requirements - the only thing that differs is their initial triggering range (and of course the damage/enemy that does the attack).

[tropic vine]

noted

[orchid bloom]

What's the best way of avoiding/dodging ranged attacks?

[hidden ridge]

shooters? crouch at the right moment (I usually just charge at them and slide with C right before I get hit)

For tongues #gtfo-media message

red zone bad, green zone good

host bias makes it easier as host

[tardy ingot]

projectiles have so many ways

Can wiggle your camera, sway step (in 1 direction then back), sharp orb walk, crouch etc

[hidden ridge]

sharp orb walk being?

The NEO thing where you look at the projectile while strafing?

[tardy ingot]

Instead of orb walking the shooter its the projectile

[hidden ridge]

what's orb walk?

[tardy ingot]

Walking in a circle around smth

orb
Walking

[vale lynx]

How long are most of the sessions? I went into a session with bots and was in there for an hour with no signs of ending before I died, Idk if all of the sessions are usually pretty long or if I'm just new.

[latent obsidian]

Depends on the experience level of the team. For an intermediate team average level length could be something like 50 minutes

Obviously lower depth missions are likely to be longer

[vale lynx]

Tyvm

[turbid horizon]

laughs in AWOL

[tardy ingot]

r1d1

[turbid horizon]

well ok that’s R1

laughs in Teratoma

[tardy ingot]

tbh the time levels can be done in heavily varies on experience and intent

D tiers can range from casual 15 min (for some) to 3 hours (r5d1 sec for scared newbies)

[vale lynx]

wats r5d1

[latent obsidian]

Its the longest level ever

[vale lynx]

yikes

[dry pumice]

The level no one ever replays once beaten

[olive robin]

What's wrong with it

[ocean spindle]

its very very long

[tepid sand]

Just hella long and annoying

[ocean spindle]

and extreme is

annoyin

main is not as bad in annoyance but it is, veeery long

[tepid sand]

Esepcially when you have ass teammates

[ocean spindle]

haha butt team

[surreal lake]

30 mins min, 1hr30m sometimes.
Knowing the map and clearing rooms is usually the most time consuming part of expeditions, if you watch experienced players they almost never crouch unless its a giant.
I remember times when I’d spend 5-10 mins on a ||scout|| whereas nowadays I’ll sprint to those cheeks.

[vale lynx]

are the scouts the guys that sprout those tenticles al over the room?

[surreal lake]

Yup

[vale lynx]

I would just wait for them to pull the tentacles back then smack them over the head. The first mission I played, I was very cautious and never stop crouching, but the second time I did the same level, I realized the sleepers would never fully aggro before I killed them, and when I came across a giant or two in the same room, I would just close the door, lay down a sentry, and open the door guns blazing lol. Idk if that's the right way to play but I worked for me so I'm not complaining.

I only died because we walked into a room and bishop fired a shotgun shot into the middle of the room for no reason

[surreal lake]

Scouts have I think 4 ways of taking them down?
1: Loud (Shooting it, recommend a high dmg weapon because if it doesn't die in 1 shot it'll go invuln)
2: C foam + Melee (C foam will freeze it, allowing you to hit it as much as you want)
3: Quiet/Melee (Safest option, hammer/spear is 1 tap to the head, whereas bat/knife require a occiput hit (back of the head))
4: Snipe it (Unreliable, but you can oddly silently kill a scout if you shoot far enough outside the scout room).

[vale lynx]

what does C-foam do? does it just freeze enemies?

[surreal lake]

Yup

It also can reinforce doors.

[civic wave]

Yeah, when they're frozen they won't be able to alert (but if they've been damaged, they will alert after they unfreeze)

[vale lynx]

so doors arent invicible? enemies can go through them?

[civic wave]

Otherwise you can walk around them, shove them, shoot over their head, whatever, and they'll be none the wiser

[surreal lake]

Enemies can break doors, you can break doors too actually with melee or gun.

[civic wave]

Gun shots don't damage doors

Mine explosions and melee hits do

[surreal lake]

Really? Huh, could've sworn they did but I guess not.

[vale lynx]

is there any reason to break a door yourself?

[civic wave]

In some circumstances its faster than waiting for a door to open

But for most gameplay, nah

[surreal lake]

Only time I've had to is when I locked myself in with cfoam lmao

[lusty bramble]

Doors are a resource... do not break...

[dry pumice]

Sometimes it's faster if the door has a digital lock on it and something big is coming for you - but otherwise just spend extra 10 seconds to open it properly.

[civic wave]

You're the kind of person who has a FRAGILE - HANDLE WITH CARE sticker hidden under your shirt

[lusty bramble]

I have that tattood on my ass

[surreal lake]

The GTFO teammate who brought a -80% hacking power booster:

[vale lynx]

and how do I break locks on containers? I see the bots do it but Idk what they're doing, is it an item or sumthn?

[lusty bramble]

Only bots are able to break locks

[civic wave]

Point proven

[lusty bramble]

It's a weird feature

[civic wave]

Shoot the lock or hit the lock

Or use a mine to blow up the lock

Or a lock melter

[lusty bramble]

Oh lea you react to that but not the ass comment

[sturdy glen]

Have an enemy hit it off

[civic wave]

Or reset the lobby until the lock disappears, up to you

[surreal lake]

Two types of locks.
Breakable ones (padlocks) just use your melee
Hackable ones, hold E on it and play the minigame.

[latent obsidian]

Padlocks you can melee, hack locks you do a minigame to unlock it. Or use a lock melter on either

[civic mist]

picture when

[lusty bramble]

I bet you'd like a picture of my ass

[vale lynx]

so either break the lock with your infinite melee weapon or spend an item slot to break the lock??

[civic mist]

mby we can trade

[latent obsidian]

it makes noise if you melee it, lock melters don't

[vale lynx]

ah

[lusty bramble]

My dms are open

[surreal lake]

No, you can hack the lock.
Bots usually pick up lock melters, which will autobreak hackable locks.

[latent obsidian]

also makes noise if you lose the minigame, and attracts the ire of your teammates

[civic wave]

Hell yea gtfo lfg is turning into a dating site again

[lusty bramble]

I don't date women

Don't be ridiculous

[civic mist]

there goes my chance

[civic wave]

Do you date NBs

[lusty bramble]

Lea is not a woman

She is a girl gamer

[vale lynx]

thnks for da info, gonna do r5d1 bc I wanna see how bad it is

[latent obsidian]

you'll be fine

[civic wave]

You have the level unlocked?

[vale lynx]

can't wait

[vale lynx]

ill find a way to get it, my goal is getting there

[dry pumice]

Physical lock - smack it with your melee or shoot it. Hammer and bat break locks faster.

Digital lock - you do a hacking mini game.

There's also a consumable item called LOCK MELTER which... melts locks it is applied to. Quickly and silently - monsters won't even twitch.

[civic wave]

Ah, well it might be problematic joining someone else's lobby because of the difficulty of the mission and enemies that you probably haven't seen yet

[dry pumice]

Yeaaaah, people won't be happy with a new player scuffing their 90 minutes run of suffering.

[vale lynx]

only 90 minutes?

[dry pumice]

For an average squad that kinda knows what to do. Can take longer.

[vale lynx]

lightwork

[ember mulch]

90 minues is what i whould call a normal run on a map

[dry pumice]

The level is not even like HARD hard, it's just gruelling.

[craggy pier]

r5d1 is a fun level especially if you do secondary

wish u the best

[ember mulch]

Well R5D1 is long 😅

[dry pumice]

Most wipes happen just through sheer power of exhaustion combined with the game slowly losing stability over time.

As it turned when one of our guys dropped on minute 80 - lobby dies after some time and no one can join or rejoin it after that. We couldn't even add the bot because host literally loses access to relevant buttons.. We had to finish the mission as 3. It was harrowing.

[surreal lake]

Most wipes actually happen because a random shooter decided to hit me, throwing my aim a good 90 degrees and filling a choke mod round into Bishop

[wraith drum]

why can't we get to keep our active boosters for the whole run if we momentarily get disconnected during our expedition? shouldn't it be active the whole run? 😭

[dry pumice]

You will keep it if you quit the mission in first 30 seconds

Otherwise... Bad luck, it is what it is.

[wraith drum]

no I mean, if you accidentally get disconnected* during your run, so you have to reconnect to the room

But I don't have my active booster anymore

[dry pumice]

Yeah, because you basically join from scratch

[alpine fox]

hey guys, what is the meta special weapons at the moment?

[dry pumice]

Machine guns, hel rifle, uhhhh...

[civic wave]

Burst cannon/hel gun/high cal probably

[dry pumice]

Combat shotgun! I keep forgetting the stupid thing exists.

[civic wave]

But you can get away with anything so it doesn't matter that mucj

[dry pumice]

Yeah, combat shotgun and skillful burst cannon are top tiers right now.

[civic wave]

Yeah combat shotgun good too, some maps people go crazy for precision rifle too

[alpine fox]

so hel rifle/combat shotgun?

[dry pumice]

Burst Cannon. Burst Cannon is stupid strong if you can use it skillfully.

[soft crater]

"Engravings give you no tactical advantage whatsoever"

[alpine fox]

so it all comes to just using favourites?

[turbid horizon]

yeah basically

[dry pumice]

When did we said that.

Burst. Cannon.

[turbid horizon]

No gun is super bad at this point

[dry pumice]

Learn it. Rip games apart.

[turbid horizon]

In certain situations, you definitely wouldn’t want to take certain weapons

Don’t take Precision Rifle into chargers, but honestly on almost any A-C tier level you can always take any gun if you’re comfortable with it

Find what you like, get good with it, and go from there

I have friends who stick with Carbine/Hel Rifle every game, and friends who change their guns every mission

[alpine fox]

ok so burst cannon is go to for most situations, what about main weapon's then?

or maybe you guys have like favourite loadouts?

[turbid horizon]

Note: burst cannon has super hefty recoil right now

[alpine fox]

yeah

[civic wave]

I think I know who these friends are

[turbid horizon]

My favorite loadout is either Hel Shotgun/Veruta MG, and SMG or Ar/Scattergun

[arctic marten]

friends who pick hel rifle should not be friends

[alpine fox]

Scatter gun?!

[sturdy glen]

L

[turbid horizon]

Basically the mother of all shotguns

Fun weapon

[civic wave]

Hm idk if I can continue this conversation, its reminding me too much of destiny 2 weapon discussions

[arctic marten]

dont L me ive seen what you like

[sturdy glen]

like where

[arctic marten]

english, please

[sturdy glen]

do you just mean taking hel rifle constantly

[arctic marten]

something much worse

hel shotgun 🤮

[turbid horizon]

XD

[dry pumice]

Dirty non-believer

[sturdy glen]

the second best main 😄

[arctic marten]

artek how could you

i thought i raised you better

[dry pumice]

You haven't seen what I've seen

[soft crater]

[turbid horizon]

I like automatic mains as much as the next guy, but I need my shotgun/MG fix and sawed off ain’t gonna cut it

[soft crater]

Skrill issue Dak

[turbid horizon]

Mmm

[dry pumice]

Is Skrillex still alive..

Haven't heard of him in a long while.

[soft crater]

Man's is 35

[arctic marten]

this is not a gtfo related question

please take this convo to #gtfo-lore

[dry pumice]

Does he still rolls the cringe sidecut

[alpine fox]

yall know each other?

[turbid horizon]

Vaguely

[soft crater]

[turbid horizon]

[soft crater]

Let's just say. Outside of server. Dakstar Here becomes. "Unhinged"

[alpine fox]

hmmm

[soft crater]

Unless that initial message was about skrillex- Google exists.

[alpine fox]

Like Adam Sandler unhinged or Saddam Hussein Unhinged?

[soft crater]

Sussy

[turbid horizon]

[arctic marten]

adam sandler

[soft crater]

Dak ain't no father figure

[alpine fox]

XDD

[arctic marten]

its a metaphor

[soft crater]

[turbid horizon]

Well i mean…

[soft crater]

You're the pet. Coop is your owner

[turbid horizon]

what

bruhv

[alpine fox]

Pov: what GTFO does to healthy men

anyway

Is LTC5 a acceptable weapon?

[jagged shore]

use short name pls

[turbid horizon]

You’re gonna need to drop an actual generic name

like pistol

Or burst rifle

[arctic marten]

just use pdw instead

or carbine

the big mag just isnt worth the low damage

[alpine fox]

ive no idea how that shi is called

[arctic marten]

its smg

[turbid horizon]

Just read the other line

[jagged shore]

the name just below the long name dude

[turbid horizon]

Yeah

[alpine fox]

i kknow that as ltc5

[jagged shore]

the long names are just way more confusing and every gun has a unique short name with the exception of the two machine guns

[alpine fox]

bruuh

im lost man im lost

[arctic marten]

get found then

[alpine fox]

gotta start edgemaxxing

and lookmaxxing

and if that doesnt help...

ropemaxxing

[arctic marten]

do you need a doctor

[jagged shore]

what the fuck are you talking about

[alpine fox]

i dunno, do you need one?

[craggy pier]

Yes

We can go together

[jagged shore]

yeah i think i just had a stroke trying to read what you just said

[alpine fox]

go together to start ropemaxxing?

[craggy pier]

To start hopemaxxing

[alpine fox]

might as well start gainmaxxing

[arctic marten]

can you use real words

or define the fake ones

[alpine fox]

i dunno, how would you define "real"?

[arctic marten]

words in the dictionary

[alpine fox]

ok so

wait im not sure if i will get banned for definition

bro just google it

[arctic marten]

probably not

[soft crater]

Fr fr

On god

[alpine fox]

on wardenussy

[soft crater]

No cap

Anyways.

[alpine fox]

ok so, why people are hating on scattergun?

and why is it apparently "homo" to use hel rifle?

[soft crater]

Hel rifle has some dedicated lovers

Almost over hyping

[arctic marten]

i am a dedicated hater

[turbid horizon]

When… were either of those things said?

[alpine fox]

https://tenor.com/view/ohno-gif-20351800

[turbid horizon]

I mean yeah mountainman hates it

And i get that at least, it’s pretty strong

[arctic marten]

im mountainface now

[alpine fox]

mountainman XDDDDD

[turbid horizon]

Mmmm yeah sure grandpa

[jagged shore]

you will forever be chimp davies in my heart

[soft crater]

Chimpdavies

[arctic marten]

ive had so many different eras

[hardy grotto]

he’s an r4e1 lover in my heart

[turbid horizon]

truly

[soft crater]

ReturnOgChimpDaviesWhen

[alpine fox]

bro how old are you?

[jagged shore]

shoutouts to r2d1 statistics (or was that not you, am i insane)

[alpine fox]

youre talking like ur 50

[hardy grotto]

He’s 75

[alpine fox]

"oh ive lived a great life with different eras"

[hardy grotto]

oldest chimp I know

[alpine fox]

fr?

[turbid horizon]

actually 87 don’t cover for him

[alpine fox]

fr fr?

[turbid horizon]

Yeah we got some old players here

[alpine fox]

im not sure what to think

[jagged shore]

what is there to think based on this information

[soft crater]

[turbid horizon]

Imagine thinking twice, I don’t even think once

[arctic marten]

think nought at all, for it is laid out plainly

[alpine fox]

i mean is here really a granpa?

[soft crater]

I've never seen chimpdavies play. But that would mean they better than all these young newbies quitting the game probably

[jagged shore]

that's a low bar

[soft crater]

It is

[arctic marten]

a bunch of whippersnappers you all are

with your heroic hearts and such

[turbid horizon]

ok boomer

[arctic marten]

we didn't have that back in my day

[midnight tulip]

can you lower the fog in R5C2 before doing the reactor in secondary?

[turbid horizon]

[alpine fox]

XD

"No need to thank me"

[midnight tulip]

and you lower the fog in overload I presume?

[craggy pier]

yes u can get 3 cells before secondary

[craggy pier]

yes

[midnight tulip]

ok thanks, so you do overload first and secondary after

[soft crater]

Back in the day. It was a feature

[alpine fox]

bro you should start hopemaxxing

[soft crater]

I also see Azert still mocking Kaiser

[alpine fox]

what with that emoji xd

[arctic marten]

that cup has to be empty at this point

[soft crater]

The pfp and Name schlorp is a emote Kaiser used/spammed frequently before he was banned

[arctic marten]

is there one where the cup gets refilled

[soft crater]

[craggy pier]

no hes my friend

[arctic marten]

L

[alpine fox]

https://tenor.com/view/crying-cup-gif-21307769

[soft crater]

Last I recall Kaiser got annoyed by people mocking and pretending to be him in server. Because people thought it was his Alts or whatever

[arctic marten]

(it was his alt)

[dry pumice]

(it was indeed)

[soft crater]

But even then

I'm not active enough here anymore to notice

[alpine fox]

whats the best sentry btw?

[jagged shore]

generally, burst

rarely anything else

[alpine fox]

oh

[hardy grotto]

So why are you talking about this

[dry pumice]

Sniper has utility into giants, but situation where you have only them exclusively are rare.

[hardy grotto]

why are you trusting the words of a man who had 2 alts get banned lmao

If you’re friends with him on steam solace you should check his name history

one of them might seem out of place

[soft crater]

Don't have em on steam

[outer wing]

hey guys, question. just finished rundown one and i was wondering whether me and my friends should do rundown 2 or maybe a different one

[soft crater]

Messages me on discord here and then to play gtfo

[dry pumice]

2 is fine, unless you're bored.

[outer wing]

embarrassingly it took 70 hours of playtime to complete 1 💀

[alpine fox]

who are you to judge

[dry pumice]

That's normal.

[outer wing]

although i replayed a few to catch my friends up

[hardy grotto]

You lack the context friend

[dry pumice]

There was a couple of reasons.

[wind wren]

If I were to reach spawn cap, and there's an error going on, does it queue up?

[hardy grotto]

No

Reactors will queue

or smth like thunderdome queues I believe?

[turbid horizon]

[soft crater]

I've hardly heard much of the situation aside from a few messages he added when asking if I could play.

But ultimately getting himself/alts banned were his own fault

[arctic marten]

guys can we take this to #gtfo-lore

[alpine fox]

whats that poor bastart said?or did?

[soft crater]

I was either too busy/sick with fever/ timezoned often so I hadn't played with the guy since before his ban so eh

[alpine fox]

okie, youre right

wait what

CHIMP DAVIES?!

[soft crater]

Played with cheating mods and custom boosters

[narrow niche]

Le unreadable booster moment

[alpine fox]

and thats it?

[soft crater]

Was either gerz or Eva iirc streaming when he got caught and banned to my recollection

[jagged shore]

word on the vine is he had boosters that let him kill a giant with like 4 smg shots

[alpine fox]

i thought he said the n-word a million times or smth

xD

[narrow niche]

Tf

[hardy grotto]

Pdw

[jagged shore]

simplified to smg, but yes

[hardy grotto]

pdw

[soft crater]

Pdw

[arctic marten]

im back from my ban

[narrow niche]

What is this pdw is smg bullshit

[soft crater]

PDW is technically a type of SMG so eh

[jagged shore]

i meant to say "an" smg, because pdw is an smg, at least that's how i always hear people describe it generally

i am aware it was pdw

[narrow niche]

I mean

[narrow niche]

Isn't it technically the other way around

Like an SMG is a kind of personal defense weapon

[soft crater]

Look at P90/MP7

[narrow niche]

Yea but I mean

[soft crater]

It's the ammunition

[narrow niche]

Pdws can be pistols or

[soft crater]

It doesn't use a traditional 9mm/45. Or other normal caliber

[jagged shore]

i mean now you're just being pedantic

[narrow niche]

Even carbines if you're insane

[hardy grotto]

Pdw

[narrow niche]

Real

[hardy grotto]

can’t compare to the .9 king…

.91 sorry

Got my stats wrong

[soft crater]

PDWs to my knowledge essentially use pistol caliber rifle bullets

[arctic marten]

this seems like a good discussion for #gtfo-lore

[narrow niche]

Consider like ak47 short carbine version

Yes

[wind wren]

Thanks:D

[foggy ridge]

anything can be a pdw

[narrow niche]

I mean smgs only use pistol caliber

Pdws can be rifle or intermediate

Not often cause it's not a great idea to have a giant pdw but

[soft crater]

The difference is that in this case pdw might use rounds like 5.7 (like the gun. FiveSeven)

[narrow niche]

Ak47u?

Forgot the exact name

[soft crater]

And we'll I haven't exclusively looked up much for rifle pdw as

[narrow niche]

But it's a short carbined ak47 for pdw use

[soft crater]

AK 74U

[olive robin]

ngl

fiveseven pistol when

[soft crater]

But iirc that's a result of Cod

[olive robin]

give it a focus on accuracy

[narrow niche]

I mean

[olive robin]

like a hybrid hel revolver and shelling pistol

[narrow niche]

Dresse needle gun when

[olive robin]

no pierce but long range

[soft crater]

AKS-74U

[narrow niche]

Ah yes

[arctic marten]

guys i think long gun will be in r8

[hardy grotto]

Finally

What the people wanted

[soft crater]

Tbh "carbine" is more so barrel length to my knowledge than caliber

[narrow niche]

Yea

It's a

"shortened rifle"

[soft crater]

Longer than smg. But not longer than 16 inches

[narrow niche]

Oh yes ever seen the carbine garand prototype

[olive robin]

when do we get the sawed off konig

devs could stand to add a few sarcasm weapons

[soft crater]

Yes I know of it

[narrow niche]

It's so bad

Who thought it would be a good idea

[turbid horizon]

That’s what mods are for

[soft crater]

Isn't it just called M1 Carbine

[narrow niche]

No the carbine is close to pistol caliber

There's literally a shortened garand

It's like the t1e5 or smth

[olive robin]

yeah but an official would be so nice

official sawed off konig

it was sawed off to allow musket style reloading

drop the bullet in the barrel

[narrow niche]

M1985 winchester when

[soft crater]

M1E5

With a folding stock

[narrow niche]

Ugly ass mf

[soft crater]

It looks like some Obrez version of a gun from Hunt showdown

[narrow niche]

Lmao

I mean compare it to the garand

It's just

Missing sections

[soft crater]

M1 Garand at home

[narrow niche]

Real

No one during the design process said anything about the utility of a short garand compared to an SMG or smth?

[narrow niche]

Oh yes the akt-40 is great

[olive robin]

There's a lot of like

Normal and logical weapons

Where are the illogical and strange weapons

Ricochet bullet gun

[narrow niche]

What if we took an unusable full auto rifle and MADE IT SHORTER

[olive robin]

Just a machine pistol with a stock?

[narrow niche]

Myes

Oh yes full auto c96

[soft crater]

Did you just list the one from Enlisted

[narrow niche]

Clearly usable without a stock, just recoil better

[narrow niche]

:D

[soft crater]

I didn't realize enlisted used AKT instead if SVT

[narrow niche]

Oh no they have both

[soft crater]

Or SKt

Hm

[narrow niche]

The akt and skt are gimmicky premium weapons that

Suck

[soft crater]

Literally translates to Automatic Tokerev

[narrow niche]

Yes

[soft crater]

Or more so

Avtomat Tokerev

[narrow niche]

Honestly

Isn't it

It's great

[narrow niche]

Svt 38 :D

[soft crater]

I see

I searched it

And got Enlisted results

[narrow niche]

Wh why

[soft crater]

Crazy

Well AKT-40 I did

[narrow niche]

It's literally just an older svt

[narrow niche]

Oh that's even more wild

So the real message is you should play enlisted

[soft crater]

I used to

[fringe mist]

does anyone have the same problem than me and maybe has a fix? I'm trying to play gtfo with a friend but the cage drop button doesnt work whenever he is here. we tried with him making the lobby but we are stuck in an infinite loading screen. we verified game files and restarted our pcs.

[dry pumice]

[midnight tulip]

You can't skip mother in R5C2 overload anymore? I just did it with bioscan speed and finished very early but we still got waves after the scan ended

[soft crater]

Waves are fixed.

[fringe mist]

I did lmao

[narrow niche]

Was it that bad lmao

[soft crater]

nah. I didn't have anyone to play it with and I'm not one to grind large scale battlefield games like that

[narrow niche]

Fair enough

[vale lynx]

Is there any difference when shooting a giant in the back of the head rather than the front?

[past mesa]

x2

difference

1.5 and 3.0

[dry pumice]

As you get behind the enemy you can get up to x2 additional damage on any enemy.
Works with both guns and melee. Not turrets or mines.

Its based on your position relative to the enemy, not any sort of specific hitbox.

[midnight tulip]

Are Dauda's voicelines broken? I've heard multiple reports that his voicelines don't work and in all my 6 months since starting this game I don't remember ever hearing him talk. I'm currently listening to his voicelines on youtube and I'm certain I've never heard them before which is a shame cuz they're really good.

[dry pumice]

Yes, Dauda's voice has been broken for a while now. Like 3-4 rundowns probably. Notably his responses and new pick up pings do not work.
He still talks an awful lot when holding biotracker though...

[midnight tulip]

Actually now that I think about it I think he also does a voice line when bioscans start but yeah aside from tracker and scans that's it

[dry pumice]

Devs been pinged about for ages, I have no idea why is it still not fixed.

[olive robin]

Ping them again.

In fact, ping everyone forever.

[neon gust]

can we please bots not entering bioscan

or not picking up items while in combat

[olive robin]

I get why bots drop items in combat

[neon gust]

can we optimize the game

[olive robin]

But like

I can't actually tell a bot to carry anything during error alarms

That bothers me

[neon gust]

and not just making the requirements higher because you dont wanna optimize the game

[olive robin]

This too

[neon gust]

its a bug

since alt r1

they broke it

[olive robin]

Sounds like they decided to call it a feature

And just give up fixing it

[neon gust]

nah

its just that poeple rarely use bots

so they dont give a shit

super low priority

only if you used to use them a lot and actually get really far into the game where you see the issues with them

but that like a super small minority

[olive robin]

I use a bot or two like every mission

Idk the objective thing sucks

I'm more annoyed by the inability to hold fog turbines and not wander away from you

[hidden ridge]

Whichever's purple (Hackett IIRC) also has swapped lines for Yes/No during alarms

[soft crater]

Purple is Bishop

[quartz quiver]

Does the terminal hide medipacks and ammopacks within boxes and lockers without listing them?

like if an unoponed locker has ammo in it, will the ammo show up when you list ammo?

[vague bridge]

it does indeed

[quartz quiver]

what about boxes?

is it pointless to ping for boxes and lockers to find ammo if the list ammo zone command shows nothing?

[drifting walrus]

do you HAVE to have a group of 4 to play? or is it possible with 3?

[vague bridge]

if you list ammo, res, or u for a zone and got nothing you either typed wrong or theres nothing in the zone

[hazy wedge]

list re/res (zone) will show all resources in that zone

[vague bridge]

pinging lockers isnt much use except for consumables

[quartz quiver]

what's u for?

[vague bridge]

u is a useful command for showing resources, security, and unknown

fastest hands in the west

[quartz quiver]

is there a way to see chat while in terminal? can you ping it term ping indefinitely without attending to it?

or can you at least view map while on terminal? i didn't check lol

is the ping showing on the map?

[vague bridge]

you can add -t to ping indefinitely until you get off the terminal

and chat does not show up when operating a terminal

[drifting walrus]

do you HAVE to have a group of 4 to play? or could me and my 2 friends actually do content?

[vague bridge]

pings do not show up on the map, but they do show up on the screen and the compass

[vague bridge]

its highly recommended

makes the game tons harder to be a person short

[hazy wedge]

You can do 3 players. Having a bot is fine if you want one

[vague bridge]

even with bots

i wouldn't call having a bot fine

[drifting walrus]

is it doable without a bot for the fourth? or too difficult for 3

[vague bridge]

would you want a serial killer on your team

[hazy wedge]

The missions are possible with only 3 but you will be at a disadvantage once you reach deeper levels

[drifting walrus]

got it

[jagged shore]

i would
it's not ideal for sure, but it's not a complete deadweight
even 2 is okay

[vague bridge]

it works

but its not fine

they're always up to some antics

[jagged shore]

they're better than having the slot be empty (for newer players who are usually the ones asking about them), which i think makes them fine

[vague bridge]

true

[sturdy glen]

they are very rarely the problem in the team if youre not doing Ds or C tier PEs

assuming youre not doing smth dumb like giving them a high damage weapon

[hazy wedge]

I give my bots scattergun for the goofs

[sturdy glen]

but yeah they are pretty jarring to play with sometimes

I personally hate them with a passion

[quartz quiver]

Is it possible to find what direction a zone is or how to get to a certain zone via terminal?

[neon gust]

you can beat 99.9% of all levels with 2 players +2 bots

[hazy wedge]

Doors will display important information that will point you in the right direction.

[neon gust]

you will have to play some of their strenght and weaknesess

[sturdy glen]

you can ping security doors attached to your zone

I forget if querying them gives any information

[sturdy glen]

byeah this is the main way to figure that stuff out

nobody be out here pinging/querying sec doors

[vague bridge]

it does

it provides the zone it goes to and the passage to other zones

[sturdy glen]

as you can tell, ive done it plenty of times

[drifting walrus]

best loadout for my very first mission?

[craggy pier]

dont bother with whats good and what isnt

just drop in

and experience GTFO

[jagged shore]

yeah use guns and weapons that feel good, and experiment a bit. after you've done a few levels, maybe once you get kinda stuck on one, then start worrying about what things are better than others

[neon gust]

Ar, veruta machinegun

[lusty bramble]

what happened man

why did you ignore me

we can talk

[hardy grotto]

ignore beep

hes throwing

[midnight tulip]

When you start sprinting there is a short duration where your character dashes. Is this meant to be a dodge?

[native sun]

If you're talking about left/right strafing and hitting sprint, then yes. The dodge used to be much bigger, but now it is quite small.

[midnight tulip]

it's even when you walk backwards

[jagged shore]

yes it is
same thing though

[fleet jungle]

Does anyone know how to fix R1C1? Me and my 3 friends always make it to the reactor. Activate it. Then the whole game bugs out, timer freezes, enemies go invisible but still do damage. We haven't had a single problem on any other rundown. Even with a different host it still just does the same thing every time we get to the reactor and activate it. Help?

[quartz quiver]

were runs not fully available before? like you couldn't do r1 before?

[orchid raft]

yes

[quartz quiver]

so why did they change it?

[soft crater]

Moving to newer projects/games

[quartz quiver]

why'd they make the older rundowns unavailable?

[orchid raft]

there decision to dont know the answer tbh

[ocean spindle]

gtfo used to be like fortnite where for newer content the old missions disappeared and where swapped for new ones, also with new guns and tools sometimes
they used to say it was cause of newer content, cause it would be hard to balance all the guns between all the missions and cause gtfo was still early access
then with Rundown 7 game was not on EA anymore and most people didn't experienced the old ones

so they back

[neon gust]

10cc fucked up and realize its not sustainable to use fomo as a practice when it comes to actual ingame content

Because they couldnt push the story foward quick enough to recycle the old rundowns

So they decided to bring back all the old rundowns and finish gtfo to start theyre new game while they think what they wanna do with GTFO

[craggy pier]

gtfo dies 3 weeks after r8

r9 3 yrs later
no one left to play

[neon gust]

It will get resucitated 1 year after

[minor fractal]

They always come back.

[neon gust]

You dont do a partnership programs to not continue something

[craggy pier]

is this a fnaf reference?

[neon gust]

87?

[minor fractal]

It is not, but that is funny.

I am behind on my FNAF lore after 3.5 years of hydrostasis.

[quartz quiver]

am i able to join someone doing r1b2 if i didn't do r1b1 yet?

[ocean spindle]

yep!

u can join any level as long as the host has it

[soft crater]

[hidden ridge]

Yeah it's a bit jarring if you think about it

[hardy grotto]

What if I don’t wanna think

[acoustic swan]

I don't own the game, but I've been wondering if it's worth getting GTFO when I don't have any friends to play it with. I've read numerous reviews, and they all seem to suggest that it's not really worth playing as a single-player game. Additionally, I'm curious if the game's community is open to grouping up with beginner (me). I really wanna play the game because it looks very cool

Hello! If you are unaware, we have Looking For Group (LFG) channels to help users group up and play the game. They are located here: #lfg-north-america / #lfg-latin-america / #lfg-eastern-europe / #lfg-western-europe / #lfg-asia / #lfg-oceania / #lfg-africa / #lfg-beginners.

If you are unsure of how to create or join a lobby, please see the instructions here: #how-to-matchmake.

[dry pumice]

Using instructions above you can find people to play with. It usually takes from 5 to 15 minutes to fill up a squad.

[latent obsidian]

As there is a sale there are a lot of beginners joining right now, so its a good time to match up with other new players

[dry pumice]

Most levels are easy enough to be finished with 2-3 people and a bot or two.

[hexed lotus]

guy's whats generally harder, B2 or C1 ?

[latent obsidian]

Generally C tiers will be harder than B tiers

If you are talking about rundown 1 specifically this is also the case

[dry pumice]

The general rule of thumb is that higher letter is always harder or more complex somehow.
Although B3s or even B4s can sometimes rival C1 in overall difficulty.

It's not a hard rule, more so a guideline that the game breaks every so often.

[quartz quiver]

how can I matchmake for anything? i.e. any rundown and any stage where I join someone instead of hosting?

[fierce walrus]

You can use the ingame matchmaking but it doesnt really work so everyone uses this discords LFG (looking for a group) channels

[bronze stag]

what's the best way to deal with the long ranged enemies (the weak ones)?

[dry pumice]

DMR. Bullpup. Precision Rifle.

[latent obsidian]

In general target their head, its more of a weakpoint for them than most enemies

[dry pumice]

Aim for the head. They take x5 damage from it.

[latent obsidian]

And move to the side at the last second to dodge their projectile, it homes in on you

[civic wave]

As with a lot of things in this game the answer you receive is "shoot better"

[dry pumice]

Do I understand correctly that Bullpup can kill a shooter in 3 bullets from front?

[civic wave]

You can always hop in a level and test it

[dry pumice]

2 dmg
x1 prec
x5 spore
= 10 dmg

That... Doesn't feel right somehow.

And I'm the biggest BP enjoyer around here.

Huh.

[latent obsidian]

Rounding shenanigans?

[civic wave]

@neon gust any comments?

[latent obsidian]

Does BP actually have flat 2 damage?

[dry pumice]

They buffed with patch to rival AR

2.2 or something

[latent obsidian]

Ah well nvm then

[dry pumice]

2.1 actually

[latent obsidian]

Sounds like a 3 shot yeah

[neon gust]

hes not the biggest enjoyer

definetly lmao

I used to enable bp back in the og rundown 4 days

and people will look at me crazy "why that shitty gun"

https://tenor.com/view/you-wouldnt-get-it-joker-smoking-gif-15952801

[civic wave]

I mean, they're not wrong, gun bad lmao

But you get away with anything I this game

[neon gust]

i think people just forget the basics

hit more bullet than you miss

suddenly gun good

what the hell

[civic wave]

Yea, pretty much

Gun choice is the smaller part of gunplay

[neon gust]

i mean it kinda did but like

shit would get removed

😔

but its nice to be able to pick everything and anything

[civic wave]

The problem with having everything available is you can just take the same gun at every opportunity

Like there's no reason to use a wide variety of weapons

[neon gust]

If you enjoy variety then youll be picking the guns that you feel like playing

more sweaty people will just stick to their all in 1 and meta

but i think most old people just kinda run everything and anything

[dry pumice]

It is usually developers' responsibility to create such reason. Like balancing weapons for different situations and then creating those situations to encourage their usage.

Worst case scenario: balance them to be the same and then just add flavour: fire rate, etc.

[hidden ridge]

It's utopistical to think anyone could balance a system were you equally need ALL weapons to be fair

There's always going to be "what's best" or even simply what's easier to use

[dry pumice]

Yes.

[hidden ridge]

Best case scenario it becomes expedition-dependant

[dry pumice]

But you can reduce that difference to if not to zero then close to zero.

[hidden ridge]

Thermals for example

[dry pumice]

I'm not gonna cry tears over 5% less DPS.
20%, however...

[hidden ridge]

With, what, 30 weapons between main and secondary?

[dry pumice]

Yeah.

[neon gust]

you cannot have balance but you can make all things viable

[hidden ridge]

On the other hand

I get REALLY tired when someone in the lobby comments on what I pick

[dry pumice]

AR is viable. Yet we all know you might as well pick something else at that point.

[hidden ridge]

Tool-wise I can see it

But I simply don't think it's a big deal for most levels

[neon gust]

but thats not the point

[hidden ridge]

unless you do stuff like 4 snipers or whatnot

There's no reason to syndacate on which weapon I want to take

[neon gust]

you cannot cannot have a "balance" in this game that swap its design like 3 times

we were seasonal then we werent

no you have everything that suppose to be cycle out avalible at all times

[dry pumice]

Yeah, and? Redesign the balance.

[neon gust]

i often forget im talking to artek

my bad gang

[dry pumice]

Buff this, nerf that. Small changes there and there and bam.

It's literally just work. Sit down and fix it.

If in doubt - get vets into a room and do a survey.

[hidden ridge]

that's one bizzarre statement

[dry pumice]

Everyone that matters say AR sucks. Alright - keep buffing it by +1% of damage until they stop saying that.

[hidden ridge]

"We've consulted the vet council and reached a conclusion"

[dry pumice]

I'm sure some games do it like that. Dota bases its' balance changes on international tournaments. They treat their pros like sniffing dogs that naturally settle on what's "meta", and then work it from there, because surely there's a reason a bunch of competetive players keep picking exactly the same hero every match, right?

[hidden ridge]

Apples and Oranges

[dry pumice]

Exactly same principle.

It's just numbers.

[hidden ridge]

Apples and Oranges are both fruits.

[dry pumice]

Irrelevant.

[ocean spindle]

think a game thats coop its kinda very different than one that is more mission based

[civic wave]

There is no perfect balance and its foolish to think you can get a roster of guns to such a point

[ocean spindle]

also pros would probs just eliminate like 5 guns and all the melees ngl

[neon gust]

its just numbers

meanwhile multiple guns where design with different things in mind

[dry pumice]

You can get it close enough.

[neon gust]

dota have hundreds of champs

the "pros" only select the ones that are busted and usually get nerf the next patch

[ocean spindle]

tbh this is close enough as we are gettin, just need to give a slap to hel revo carbine and, idk i dont see many more problems with the loadout

[civic wave]

Close enough that what? All the guns have lost their personality? All.the guns do the same thing?

[ocean spindle]

ar is weaker but idk how to make it, not super strong better than smg or somethin

and the melees are kinda in the best position they have been with the r6 buff to spear

[dry pumice]

For all guns to have a legit answer to a question "why would I bring it with me" besides sentimental ones.

[neon gust]

because you like that guns playstyle?

or you like the utility it provides

[ocean spindle]

smg cause its simple pdw cause thermals hsmg cause the dmg machinepistol for ttk burst rifle for the range dmr for the headshots doubletap for hardest headshots but oneshot hel shotgun for the wave clear sawed off for the dmg autopiss for the stagger pistol for how easy it is and the ammo rifle for the range but not as demanding on headshots

they all, already have a somethin

[dry pumice]

Former is sentimental - doesn't count.
Second is a legit reason. But what if there's another gun that works EXACTLY the same but better?

[neon gust]

so a playstyle its sentimental

[ocean spindle]

cause theres not really a gun that, its the same to another

[neon gust]

got it

[ocean spindle]

i mean yes

but with variations

[dry pumice]

"you like it" = feeling = sentimental

Not NEED it, not OPTIMAL, I just "like it".

[neon gust]

my man its actually degrading mentally

lemme put it in rephrase that so you can actually understand

you want the playstyle the gun have to offer

there

happy

or you wanna keep nitpicking at like 1 word to refer to something

🤡

[ocean spindle]

tbh that sounds like the same sentence

[neon gust]

thats the point

[dry pumice]

Yeah, no complaints there. That's fine. I was just in the process of recreating exactly that.
And yes, I will nitpick you.

[neon gust]

hes been stupid

[ocean spindle]

idk maybs im dumb too but i see it like, idk thtas jusst preference, like me pickin smg before the buff cause it just felt nice

but idk

no english natal lingo

[minor fractal]

It's the difference between what the preference is for.

[neon gust]

english its my second leanguage too

you dont dont see me doing that

[ocean spindle]

yes but u speak it way better lol

[minor fractal]

Is it something like the look, sound, feel, etc., or is it more about the optimal play pattern for the gun, the niche it fills, etc.

[neon gust]

I mean its practice

gotta expose yourself

even then my writting its worse in english because i eat some letter here and there

[dry pumice]

Like okay...
Good example:

Sentiment - I really want a shotgun for main right now.

My choices:
HELShot
Sawed off
Uh... That's it, right?

Okay. Whats the actual choice is here?
A shotgun that shoots a lot and crowd controls...
Or a shotgun that actually just NUKES my target.

Alright, that's a real choice. And both are actually good at those roles too, thank god.

[ocean spindle]

ok, two options
smg, pdw
whats the choice
a gun that has big mag, very controllable recoil and its, normal
or a gun that swizzles around everywhere, has a smaller mag but has thermals

[minor fractal]

But then it gets a bit vacuous to say that, no?

[ocean spindle]

bleh

[minor fractal]

Like, plenty of people are probably "sentimental" for HEL Revo, the way it plays, the place it sits in the game, etc.

But it's also just one of the strongest Main weapons in the game.

[ocean spindle]

dmr, double tap, rifle, hel revo
all these guns have their own use and way to play, dmr has the range and the dmg doubletap the oneshottin potential the rifle the forgiveness of headshots hel revo the pen but not so much the others range
like even puttin aside that its very powerful, u still have choices, and they do a good job too

[civic wave]

Hel revo range is still incredible for breakpoints

Less so if you only hit bodyshots but that thing should not be underestimated

[ocean spindle]

no yeah, thats why i said puttin aside that its very powerful ksks

it is, its meta rn

but the point is u got many other choices and they do a good amazing job too

like u have reasons to choose em but still appreciate the others, theres no 'bad gun' in the game rn

so i think thats just, the closest thing to balance we have

[minor fractal]

Ehh, AR is kind of a bad gun.

SMG is just okay.

[ocean spindle]

i dont thinka r is a bad gun, its just not as good as its competition, but even so it still offers range and like good stability and very low recoil with a fast reload

u could compare it to bullpup, which is also a good choice and has less recoil, but it has a longer reload

[neon gust]

i like smg gameplay

its spammy as hell

[ocean spindle]

yeah, feels really nice defo a very forgivin gun to hold at full auto

[neon gust]

but i forgot

artek told me i use smg wrong

hes right

[minor fractal]

You can actually get that from other guns, though.

[neon gust]

who uses smg like that

[minor fractal]

PDW and HSMG fill the same niches so much better rn.

[neon gust]

nah it aint as spammy

[dry pumice]

Alright, back from dishes. Where was I...

[ocean spindle]

idk i still think it fills the niche, its not super amazin it could get a buff, but i dont think its a bad weapon per se

but its still a good auto if u need that range and quick-ness to like reload and use and stuff

[ocean spindle]

ah yeah um we were thinkin gtfo should have grenades

:]

[dry pumice]

Here's the one that bothers me: adaptable mid range full autos.

Options:
HSMG
AR
BP
(for sake of brevity and argument - wed be here a while comparing every single auto)

BP - highest range, rewards headshots, easy to control / aim, pays for it with reload. Alright, fair enough.

HSMG - a little range limited, but deals high base damage and otherwise reliable at everything else, including being notably faster on reload.

AR... Uh... Basically HSMG, but worse in almost every way?...
Let's see...
Basically same total ammo, plus-minus...
Smaller mag...
12% less damage...
Less fire rate too...
Even reloads slower too...
What do I gain here, actuslly?!
...
Extra 3 meters of range (7 vs 10).

Genuine question to all of you: is that a trade worth making? Ever? On any map, on any level, in any circumstance? Would you?

[south crow]

so i wanted to ask since you know we are not the only prisoners with gear is it possible to add sleepers with gear? or like corpses of other prisoners is it something that could pottentionally be added to the game or is the transmutation destroying any gear on the prisoners etc

[dry pumice]

To repeat what I said to Pachi previously: the answer to question "why should I take this?" here is "take HSMG, because it's literally same thing but better".

There is no "individuality" here. It's the same gun. One of the two is just clearly better.
This is kind of "balance" that bothers me to the core.

[quartz quiver]

How do you explore a dark room with sleepers? am I supposed to flash the flashlight quickly or something?

[dry pumice]

Yeah.

Flash the room quickly, sleepers will reveal themselves, then start killing.

[quartz quiver]

or are you supposed to flash the flashlight downwards where their feet don't detect it?

[latent obsidian]

If you shine your flashlight on a guy it will still take them 2 or 3 seconds to wake up

so sweeping around the room with your light isn't risky

[minor fractal]

Usually "flashing too long" is accidentally causing a double glow.

You have to be extremely goofy to accidentally wake a sleeper w/ a light.

[quartz quiver]

i don't see how people are able to kill sleepers walking around (not crouching) and in the dark

[minor fractal]

We literally just said

use your light

[dry pumice]

They glow when they start clicking. Also they click.

[minor fractal]

Also, use your ears.

[dry pumice]

You walk towards the sound, hit head.

[minor fractal]

And have a reaction time faster than 500ms

[ocean spindle]

u can also use glowsticks, they dont alert enemies :3

[minor fractal]

Like, I am usually going to stand walk and flashlight every part of the room that I haven't checked.

And I'll do that until I think I've found all of the enemies.

If stand walking causes a glow, you should also try to flash everything past that enemy to minimize downtime.

[fossil jacinth]

If you’re struggling to see enemy outlines in normal rundowns too with like.. regular ambient light, adjust your brightness a bit. Outside of the pitch black levels you can normally see the paler parts with ambient light before they glow, if only slightly

[soft crater]

[minor fractal]

Also, some of your weapon lights will be better than the default light.

Some will also be worth, so just check which is best for your prefferred loadout.

[soft crater]

Playing GTFO extensively. Other games with darkness/fog as modifiers to block vision have been easy and nothing compared to what I've dealt with in gtfo

(Namely darktide)

[minor fractal]

It is a little wild that you can have a dark corner with an enemy hidden in it, where the dark corner is hiding the enemy because it's a foot away from two light sources that fully illuminate the entire area around that corner.

[south crow]

so i wanted to ask since you know we are not the only prisoners with gear is it possible to add sleepers with gear? or like corpses of other prisoners is it something that could pottentionally be added to the game or is the transmutation destroying any gear on the prisoners etc

[minor fractal]

I mean, what do you mean by that?

As a decoration maybe.

[south crow]

i mean wouldnt it be more realistiv if the sleepers had some kind of clothes?

[minor fractal]

As a game mechanic, it could be slightly immersive, but it just doesn't add that much.

[ocean spindle]

sleppers probs would bite off their clothes

[south crow]

cuz?

[ocean spindle]

cause they dont like em

[minor fractal]

Yeah, it seems like they either find ways to lose clothing, or they are mostly clones of each other.

[south crow]

how do you know

[dry pumice]

"Yes", "depends" , and "we are past that point"

[ocean spindle]

they dont seem very fond of clothes

idk they are all naked

[minor fractal]

Like, respawns and birthers both make it seem like most of them are born clothes-less.

[south crow]

idk clothes dont jjust vanish or a a broken gas mask of the head exploding

[south crow]

ye

but i mean personell

and prisoners

[dry pumice]

It saves development resources. Can't tell you anything else.

[south crow]

i mean most of the turned used to be living humans

[dry pumice]

I would love left 4 dead style random infected. But these devs lack the budget. Or desire.

[ocean spindle]

theres some pants in the levels thrown aroundand clothed corpses

[minor fractal]

I'm not sure we know the %, but it actually might be quite a lot of them that are not directly transformed.

[ocean spindle]

idk what clothes would add to this game tbh

we already have the fashion

[south crow]

i mean its not much fashion

[dry pumice]

Realism. Immersion. World building.

[south crow]

like id love some variaty

[dry pumice]

Not happening, mate.

It's too late.

[south crow]

so there isnt anything lore related stopping it?

[dry pumice]

Games on last breath. We're getting 1 update and it's done.

[south crow]

besides that the born ones would have ofc no clothes

as a mechanic

... how do u get world buildin of puttin on some pants

theres already pants on the floor

[dry pumice]

"this guy was a worker... This one was a scientist... This one a janitor"

[south crow]

like lets say lore relevant corpse of a turned sleeper of some high ass tier general?

next to a log

[minor fractal]

I mean, we have fully clothed corpses.

But they're only partially transformed, by the look of them.

[ocean spindle]

those people probs went off to hsus or died in not the places we go to, cause those are where workers used to be, not higher ups

KDS deep maybs as the like high ground but

[south crow]

on the break out do you think every high tier ass member survived or what?

[ocean spindle]

theres just hsus they probs went on em

no but that they got infected somewhere else

[minor fractal]

Like, it's possible that the transformation is actually exceptionally rare, and for the most part sleepers just eat people and grow more sleepers.

[south crow]

not by the lore

[minor fractal]

Or there is no transformation at all, and the look of corpses is something else.

[blissful mulch]

Hello! Can anyone help me? Cant finish R6c1 because i the end of level extraction circle dont spawn. Can anyone help me fix It?

[minor fractal]

I don't think there are logs specifying the details here.

We only really know that they use human genetic material.

They seem like highly malleable creatures.

[south crow]

most of the personell turned and its most likely that the rest of the world is aswell turned since we are looking to timehop trough timelines

[minor fractal]

Did you play any other levels this session?

[minor fractal]

NAM-V doesn't create sleepers.

Or at least it's highly unlikely.

[blissful mulch]

Other levels IN R6 is working.

[south crow]

then wheres rest of humanity 7bilion ppl

[minor fractal]

Have you played other levels this session?

When you booted the game, did you launch any other level?

[dry pumice]

Dead and rotting.

[south crow]

since the outbreak happened only in the lab/mines

[minor fractal]

Before playing R6C1?

[south crow]

and then

spread

[blissful mulch]

Yes. R6b2

[dry pumice]

Namv only kills. Sleepers are a product of a parasite that is exclusive to facility and works in tandem with namv.

[south crow]

something had to lead to the first sleeper

[dry pumice]

Namv broke out. Parasite stayed

[minor fractal]

Did you by chance, when switching to R6C1, launch R6B2, realize it was the wrong level, return to lobby, and then switch to R6C1?

[south crow]

the parasyte also mooves/travels by air

[dry pumice]

Thats namv.

[minor fractal]

Yes, but that doesn't require transformation.

[blissful mulch]

Ok try It. Thanks.

[minor fractal]

No.

[dry pumice]

We don't know how parasite works, there's very little info on him.

[minor fractal]

That's not what I said.

I'm asking if that's what happened.

Because it sounds like you have uplink bug.

You do not want to launch and then immediately return to lobby on R6B2.

[jagged shore]

ahhh tech support
asking one question and getting an unrelated answer

[dry pumice]

Ask better.

[minor fractal]

The only fix is to fully restart your game, btw.

And then R6C1 should work fine after that.

[jagged shore]

ray asked a very direct question

[latent obsidian]

Help my bank account has money missing
Have you given your details to any shady websites
Yes okay I'll try that

[blissful mulch]

Ok.

[minor fractal]

Everyone in the lobby needs to do the same, btw.

It might not matter, but it's much safer that way.

[blissful mulch]

Thanks for help.

Nam-v creating sleepers?

[dry pumice]

PARASITE

[ocean spindle]

and virus

relationship

[dry pumice]

Just go to #gtfo-lore already, we'll explain everything there

[blissful mulch]

Ok!) Thanks!

[quartz quiver]

what's the point of "pulse" showing up in your hud?

[dry pumice]

Stamina.

[latent obsidian]

running and jumping around lots means you run slower and take longer to charge your melee

[lyric mist]

does anyone know a good guide on stealth mechanics?

[dry pumice]

Probably one of the steam guides. Lots of misinformation out there though, so better just ask here.
Any specifics you don't understand?

[lyric mist]

mostly how enemy detection works

[civic wave]

I think nuggies should have a good one, although it would've been made earlier when the game was slightly different

[lyric mist]

like what sets them off at what ranges

sometimes it feels like i can walk up to them without waking, other times they instantly activate

also the very inconsistent reactions to nearby enemies getting killed

[soft crater]

... you trust steam guides?.

[dry pumice]

Their detection radius is ~10 meters in all directions (my eye range detection is crap).

They immediately wake if they hear sprinting - they even skip normal wake up animation I believe.

Gunshots and melee hitting objects (locks included) also immediately wake them up, but at least they play the animation.

While fully asleep - they do not sense crouching, but react to walking and lights by going into semi-aware state: glowing and clicking. They also sometimes enter that state randomly.
In this state they can sense even crouching. They will respond to more stimuli by "throbbing" and after about 3 strikes they will fully wake up, telegraphed by an animation and a scream.

[dry pumice]

Not really. I wrote one once, long ago...

[soft crater]

Your eye detection range is ok. It's GTFOs ranging that's kind of fucked compared to other games.

[dry pumice]

Don't know what to tell you. IRL I detect range in human bodies where 1 body = 2 meters rounded.

[soft crater]

[lyric mist]

so when fully asleep i can crouch walk fine but if they glow and i'm in 10 meters crouch walk counts as a strike?

[dry pumice]

Yes.

It will go throb throb.

Stop moving.

[soft crater]

They can still detect you when fully asleep. Their detection is just smaller.

[lyric mist]

also is there a cooldown after they stop glowing?

[dry pumice]

Btw they waste time when playing "going aware" animation.

[lyric mist]

sometimes an enemy stops glowing so i start moving again but then they glow immediately after and wake up

[dry pumice]

That's weird.

You sure you're not sprinting at them?

[soft crater]

Are you host or client.

[lyric mist]

usually client

[young trench]

anyone tryna play ?

[soft crater]

Sleeper pulse/throbbing can be out of sync potentially

[lyric mist]

no, i don't sprint unless far away from them

[hardy grotto]

So killing an enemy right next to another one, they will always trigger, anything in that range will always trigger.
If an enemy is outside of that range, and they’re glowing, and you kill something, there’s a chance they can trigger. So unless you want them to wake up I would wait until everything is not glowing. However if you do want them to wake up, I’d recommend flashing them and walking into the enemy you want to kill before you hit them because it makes the long range aggro more reliable.

[lyric mist]

wait what?

how does waking them up help?

what if they scream

[soft crater]

You pseudo select which enemies you want to wake up.

Once an enemy is awake. Killing them won't trigger nearby sleepers.

[lyric mist]

oh

wait for real? is that a bug?

[dry pumice]

It's an advanced tech.

[soft crater]

It's not often used aside from vets from what I've seen

[dry pumice]

Most people don't use it.

[soft crater]

Even then. It's very few situations vets need to use it

[hardy grotto]

can help stealth clearing, and ideally you do it when you know you can kill both without any screaming

it’s smth I use a lot in stealth

[lyric mist]

i mean it solves my issues with far away enemies waking up at random

[hardy grotto]

Even if you don’t actively use it, it’s still good to know how it works because now you can avoid waking up enemies at long range yeah

[soft crater]

The only situations I've seen people do this when like a enemy is right next to a || Tank/mother ||

[hardy grotto]

I do it to trigger smalls next to bigs

[torpid token]

You can try to clear the first half of R7C3 alone, it will be very helpful for you to understand the aggro mechanism.

[soft crater]

First half.

looks at blood door

[torpid token]

there are two possible mines resource box in first c area

[lyric mist]

one more thing, walking outside their detection range doesn't set them off even when glowing right?

[dry pumice]

Just play normally, the knowledge should come with exposure unless you are reliably being exposed to some weird buggery.
