[supple kiln]

but honestly dauda is such a better friend

[past mesa]

Yup well good luck ping me if you need help

You probs got this tho

[supple kiln]

yea yea i will

i sure hope so

[past mesa]

Have you played the other rundowns ?

[supple kiln]

thrid night in a row we’ve been doing this and all we’ve done is been screwed by the sleepers tounges

[supple kiln]

yea actually i’ve beat r1

with only one other friend

[past mesa]

Nice

[supple kiln]

and gotten to like

[past mesa]

Did you end up playing r1-5

[supple kiln]

d or mid c tier for the rest

[supple kiln]

haven’t finished them all

and haven’t started r8

we’ve been trying to finish r7 so we can get the lore before we do r8

[past mesa]

Good idea

Well you have the skills then to beat this

I think you will have it soon

[supple kiln]

yea i think it’s mostly we added the third player and he’s pretty new to the game

like

we took him thru the first like 4 levels of r6

and r1a1-b2

so he gets the gist

[past mesa]

XD

[supple kiln]

but he’s good enough at fps games that he could prob do r7d2 anyways

[past mesa]

Oh btw you can c foam tanks

With c foam trip mines

[supple kiln]

oh shit

def

[narrow niche]

and moms :P

[supple kiln]

mothers are an absolute no

cuz we can’t stop every baby from getting past us and screwing our sneaker

[narrow niche]

bring someone with mg or hel shotty or smth

[supple kiln]

trust me we’ve tried i think it’s better for all parties for a tank

[past mesa]

I agree

[supple kiln]

i’ll def have everyone stock up with c mines tho

[past mesa]

Just don’t let giants eat the c foam trips

[narrow niche]

r7d2 meme cfoam tripmine when it cfoams a tank instead of mom

[supple kiln]

yea yea good idea

can i use a c foam grenade

[narrow niche]

idts

[supple kiln]

or does that not have enough foam

[narrow niche]

?

i think you need like 2

or 3

[supple kiln]

damn

alr alr

[narrow niche]

i could be wrong

[narrow niche]

what does this mean

plea

[supple kiln]

this is literally my favourite game so i feel so dumb being stuck on a stupid level that isn’t even indicative of the main mechanic of the game

[supple kiln]

think it was a typo

[narrow niche]

ah

[supple kiln]

but could also stand for facebook

[narrow niche]

yes

:P

[supple kiln]

which no i wouldn’t give out my facebook xD

all i have on that is repost of my paper engineering college page that i did for some extra credit stuff

trust me it’s not interesting

[narrow niche]

yo free answers?

[supple kiln]

not even

it’s literally

[narrow niche]

plagerism?

🙏

[supple kiln]

it counted as extra volunteer hours if i shared a couple of the organizations posts

jokes on them i don’t use facebook i have literally 5 friends who also don’t use facebook so like no one will see it

but whatever

anyways heading out i got sidetracked

adhd man it’s killing me tn

byee

thanks <3

[upper ginkgo]

@past star wtf i thought paper engineering was a joke

[narrow niche]

LMAO

[past mesa]

Is this breads friend bread was kicked out of the group

[sturdy glen]

THERES ANOTHER ONE?

this isnt real

[past mesa]

Paper engineer isn’t real

[past star]

Paper engineering 🔛 🔝

[past mesa]

Stop being so stupid

[past star]

Stop being so unavailable

We aren’t going to get lethal company quota WR

[past mesa]

Find a fourth

[past star]

No

[past mesa]

If I am the issue

[past star]

You are not replaceable

And we love you

Sorry it was a low blow

[past mesa]

Go back to your paper macha

[past star]

[craggy pier]

How do i do the groups vc?
i havent done it before so im not sure how the vc invite thing works

[topaz anvil]

Click on "Create a team of X" where x is how many players you want in your lobby

Then when it moves you, you can copy an invite link to that new voice channel

[craggy pier]

thank you

oh do i do looking for group beginners since ive only completed r1a1?

[atomic copper]

Anyone know what primary and special weapons i should give the bots that aren’t shotguns because they have been using them like medium range rifles

[jagged shore]

there's a steam guide for that
gist is, main: burst rifle or carbine, special: machine gun (either)
i've heard burst cannon is also decent depending on situation (but try not to get friendly fired)

[jaunty latch]

give them AR they are more reliable with it then br and carbine

and if the level is entirely close quarters you can go further and give them pdw

for special give them veruta for smalls or burst cannon if you want them to kill gaints

[light cradle]

The green fog has the virus ?

[tardy ingot]

That is …. concerning?
If you need 4 sentries down then no wonder tool goes empty like nothing else.

Plus without a bio the level overall just becomes a lot harder (and shotgun/sniper sentry a lot worse)

I feel like if you „feel“ like you just die with bio instead of 4 sentries then its

1. the bio not actually pinging for the sentries/players
2. the players not shooting well
   (Something line the actual sniper rifle makes this whole thing a lot harder for example since its quite a bad weapon rn)

[cobalt fossil]

Huh, did anyone do the hammer(dont kill mobs with main/secondary on any A level) and bio tracker(mark every ennemis on the map) achievements and dident received them? I guess its my fault for doing them in the first place but still

[upper ginkgo]

i got them, but i'm unsure of the exact parameters required to obtain them

[cobalt fossil]

I did them both solo on R7A1 but dident get them

[upper ginkgo]

did you ping extract alarm enemies?

[cobalt fossil]

Yes yes everything was ping during the whole level

[tardy ingot]

did you have bots that shot?

[cobalt fossil]

No I was solo

Maybe you need 4 players?

that would be pretty dumb tho

[tardy ingot]

did you shoot anything? Even walls/locks

[cobalt fossil]

well it says to not kill anything with main/sec, dosent say you cant even fire them in the air or on locks

[tardy ingot]

you cant shoot at all

and you have to ping and kill everything that spawns

[cobalt fossil]

Ending is an error alarm that spawns 3 mobs so its impossible to kill everything but everything was scanned

[tardy ingot]

yea if its an error alarm then you shouldnt do it there

[cobalt fossil]

Ennemis were capped they were not spawning anymore

[tardy ingot]

.

[upper ginkgo]

you did both side rooms for r7a1 right?

[cobalt fossil]

?

Yes, the whole map was explored triggered and scanned

[light cradle]

Can I ask the existence of a level ?

[cobalt fossil]

If the bio achievement cant be done on a level that ends with an error alarm, and if you really cant even fire a shot doing the hammer one it should def be specified somewhere because this is pretty stupid lol

[jaunty latch]

ask in spoiler chat

[somber radish]

for the biotracker achievement, do enemies from alarms count?

[tardy ingot]

All count

[somber radish]

does it need to be tracked by player or do bots count?

[cobalt fossil]

Pretty sure the player has to do it. Tho I did it on r7a1 and dident get the achievement so who knows

[tardy ingot]

they just need to be pinged and then killed while pinged

[somber radish]

so bots can track too

[tardy ingot]

Yes

[somber radish]

nice

[cobalt fossil]

Dosent say on the achievement the ennemis have to be killed tho, only pinged🤔

[lilac fulcrum]

actually this. shouldn't need a kill.

[cobalt fossil]

Is it possible that an error alarm at the end of a level prevent the achievement?

[lilac fulcrum]

it could if you don't manage to ping all of them before extracting

[neon gust]

No

I tried the achivement yesterday

[cobalt fossil]

They were all pinged and capped even

[neon gust]

Bots do not count for it

[lilac fulcrum]

weird, I don't believe we specifically exclude bots

but possible bots do something different so it doesn't count which would be unfortunate

[cobalt fossil]

Ya I dident use bots for it

Was expecting it would do weird shenanigans

[jaunty latch]

I thought they used a seperate biotracker system then the player

[neon gust]

Not really

[tardy ingot]

weird

I did it with 3 bot bios tho?

[neon gust]

I did r2b2 wiped the map clean

[tardy ingot]

hm

[neon gust]

No achivement

[tardy ingot]

i did r1b1

[cobalt fossil]

Also, for the hammer achievement, you're supposed to be able to shoot main/secondary if it dosent kill right? Like if you shoot a lock it should not prevent the achievement?

[neon gust]

Bot tracker ping absolutetly everythinf

[tardy ingot]

not necessarily

[neon gust]

Ok eva

[tardy ingot]

i had unpinged enemies sometimes

due to being out of range

and the bots not repinging immediatly

[lilac fulcrum]

yeah i've seen some feedback about the wording. but using the weapons at all will invalidate it.

[cobalt fossil]

Ok yeah, should def change the wording then

[lilac fulcrum]

will take that feedback internally with some other wording adjustments i've seen

[light cradle]

How you discover the secret message of Schaeffer

Wasn't it some morse code?

[dry pumice]

Were the specifics of "Don't use activate ability of tools" achievement figured out? People were reporting not getting it with bots

[lilac fulcrum]

it was invalidating due to using a consumeable tripmine. we fixed that.

using bots is fine, as long as they don't use the active ability

[dry pumice]

Perfect

Might be able to get a 3-in-1 with this one... But it'll be brutal

[lilac fulcrum]

what about a 57-in-1?

[dry pumice]

A waste of perfectly fine boosters...

Class IV alarm with bots and no tools... This is gonna suck.

[light cradle]

one question

the voice of the truth and the secret scaeffer message

how do we get that?

[dry pumice]

Beat R1D1

[light cradle]

voice ot the truth

what does it say

I mean I beated r1d1

well I have a doubt

with the deep of the complex

techically kds would be the depeest

but

in the mission information

it says that it is only 1000 m

where as there are other levels wich are 1400 m in deep

[somber radish]

you know you can put al these words in one message right

[light cradle]

yes

but

I dont know

[dry pumice]

What does the achievement say? Its one of the hidden ones, right?

[light cradle]

yeah

wait a sec

hear the emision "voice of the truth " for the first time

sorry If I make it up wrongly I translated it by myself

[dry pumice]

Yep, that's a wipe

There go my boosters

Alright, fuck the "no tools one"

i can't do it with bots any time soon

Also i fucking hate close range shotguns, it turns out

I like me some range

Never using combat shotgun again

[tardy ingot]

Huh

[narrow niche]

L

artek take

[tardy ingot]

eh i mean never using a gun doesnt mean that artek thinks its bad

[narrow niche]

:P

fair

im sorry artek

i take that back

[dry pumice]

I don't know, maybe if i combined it with something long range

I tried HEL Shotgun + Combat SHotgun

[narrow niche]

combine it with hel shotty

yes

[dry pumice]

On fucking R1D1

[narrow niche]

it works

[light cradle]

what is the easiest d1

[narrow niche]

ok

[dry pumice]

It does not work

[narrow niche]

it doesnt work

maybe

not

a level like that

[tepid sand]

R1D1

[dry pumice]

I got peppered by like 20 shooters

Just standing there

While i scan

I cant do jackshit to them

[narrow niche]

r5d1 uwu

[dry pumice]

I don't know - spit maybe

[narrow niche]

:P

[dry pumice]

About as effective too

And then the hybrid and like 3 giants came around

[narrow niche]

thats like taking double shotty for r1b2

WHY

[dry pumice]

And WTF am i supposed to do with that

[narrow niche]

although i have taken it on r1b2 so

:P

[light cradle]

artek

[tardy ingot]

Move at them

[light cradle]

maybe you dont need primary and secondary weapons as shotgun

the achievement says with shotguns can be in primary or secondary

maybe you dont need both of them

[dry pumice]

I did. I got punched.

[tardy ingot]

how

[light cradle]

what how do you do a level A without killing anyone

[narrow niche]

does it?

[dry pumice]

No wait, that's al it... Not punched.

[narrow niche]

wdym?

[dry pumice]

I got kissed and peppered by approx 15 shooter projectiles

[light cradle]

there is an achievement

[dry pumice]

HP goes woooooooooooo

[narrow niche]

use tool

unless im thinking of another one

[light cradle]

that says complete any a level without killing enemies

[narrow niche]

oh

huh

well its possible

[dry pumice]

WIthout killing with weapons

Or rather the ach is incorrectly worded

[narrow niche]

oh

yea

[light cradle]

yes

[narrow niche]

i am thinking of the right one

[light cradle]

forgot that part

[dry pumice]

The correct meaning is that you're NOT SUPPOSED TO SHOOT YOUR GUNS

[narrow niche]

just use tool

[dry pumice]

like at all

[narrow niche]

mines

melee

[dry pumice]

shooting a pistol at a wall will deny it

[light cradle]

well

[dry pumice]

So just perma switch to melee

[narrow niche]

r7a1 has a distinct lack of giants

[dry pumice]

And use tools as much as you can

[light cradle]

the shotgun d achievement

[narrow niche]

you can literally duo it

melee and tool only

probably solo but

im shit

so

[tardy ingot]

The achievement translations are pretty bad sometimes

[narrow niche]

that aint happening

[light cradle]

did you get the hidden achievements

[tardy ingot]

the german ones make no sense

[dry pumice]

R1A1 or R7A1 should be mega easy, but you need an actual squad of players - bots can and will use their guns

[light cradle]

XD

[narrow niche]

or just

leave the slots empty

:P

[dry pumice]

Solo without guns? You insane?

[narrow niche]

get one other person

easy

[light cradle]

do you have the hidden

achievements

?

[narrow niche]

at least for r7a1 cause

fkn

extract

uwu

i aint carrying a neonate while fighting with only melee

[tardy ingot]

„Finish an expedition without anyone getting shot“

(Translated from german back to english)

What do you think this achievement is?

[narrow niche]

hmmm

[light cradle]

reciving no damage

[narrow niche]

without anyone getting downed

?

[tardy ingot]

yep

[narrow niche]

uwu

:P

[light cradle]

what

that is translated

[narrow niche]

shot isnt translated wel

ofc

[light cradle]

very bad is very easy to misunderstood

well

you guys have the hidden achievements?

[tardy ingot]

some of them

[light cradle]

which ones

[narrow niche]

arent they all story achievements?

[light cradle]

yes

but there is one that says something about hearing a transmition

" the voice of the truth"

[narrow niche]

its in ||r7a1|| i think?

||its a log||

[lilac fulcrum]

make some bug reports and we'll look into them

[light cradle]

what does it say?

[narrow niche]

:P

some shit idr

[light cradle]

i mean thoguht

taht It would be the revelation

[lilac fulcrum]

that shoukd be r2e1 iirc

[narrow niche]

oh

huh

im throwing

[light cradle]

thanks

[lilac fulcrum]

it's mr truths first broadcast

[narrow niche]

ah

[light cradle]

the morse message of schaeffer i think it was in r5

and the data cube of schaeffer

[narrow niche]

r1d1 r4d1?

[light cradle]

maybe also in r5

[narrow niche]

:p

i know both have it before reactor

i think

is it in alt?

or was it removed?

[fierce walrus]

Schafer morse code is in ALT R1D1

[narrow niche]

i know i meant alt r4d1

[fierce walrus]

Ah

[narrow niche]

:P

[modest monolith]

Schafer is a nice guy. Warden is also a nice person...

I don't know who should i follow 😦

[narrow niche]

follow woods

🙏

[modest monolith]

Dauda disagree

Hackett says nope

[fierce walrus]

Nah follow bishop straight of a damn cliff

[narrow niche]

real

the bots can float down

[modest monolith]

^

[narrow niche]

can you?

[fierce walrus]

of course

[narrow niche]

:P

[fierce walrus]

Except ill shatter my bones =)

but thats a small price to pay

[modest monolith]

myth

warden is a female

☕

[fierce walrus]

warden is a cup of coffee

change my mind

[narrow niche]

warden is a fucking program

[fierce walrus]

no u

[narrow niche]

so real uwu

[modest monolith]

UwU ?

[narrow niche]

[silver fable]

I nearly pulled this off yesterday, but copped a double giant wave during extract

[narrow niche]

yea

thats why

its a no from me

[silver fable]

single giant would've been fine

[narrow niche]

duoed with yuki and instant giant

like the first wave

giant

:P

[silver fable]

or even just if the level had've given me a foam nade

[narrow niche]

also

we pulled all 4 giants in the first room

it was so bad

yuki brought fkn knife 💀

[silver fable]

I kinda want to do it with knife

[narrow niche]

:P

gl killing giants

without just pulling

and mining door

[silver fable]

so much better into waves

[narrow niche]

fair

but

mines

neither of the alarms are hard enough to warrant actually fighting

you just

mines

and hopefully pull a cfoam nade but

:P

[silver fable]

I don't want to set up some laser show tbh

[narrow niche]

hm

like a single mine

on the door?

:P

it worked

idk

[silver fable]

sure but if I don't find foam then I'm either setting up the laser show to hold the second half of scan or I fight melee with no tool

[narrow niche]

just do it duo smh

[silver fable]

duo is a copout

like who the hell duos anything

[narrow niche]

:P

:<

[silver fable]

also I solo hammered both alarms with just a burst sentry, it's doable

[narrow niche]

so much work when

mine

[cerulean falcon]

is it possible to do rundown 2 solo

[narrow niche]

yes

[digital mural]

yes

[narrow niche]

technically

:p

[cerulean falcon]

:D

[digital mural]

techncially you can solo the entire game

[narrow niche]

yes

[digital mural]

but some levels would requiere 🧀

[narrow niche]

bug moment

[cerulean falcon]

welp I need to solo rundown 2 and 3

[digital mural]

why?

why solo

[twin apex]

so about cosmetic, does finishing every single main rundown in the game eventually get u all of it ?

[narrow niche]

uhm

i think there are more

than you can get

rn

at least

cause you cant get the apparel from old rundowns

:P

[hidden ridge]

The "limited edition ones" like the tigris mask and the ones of OG R6

That's all

[twin apex]

yee ik about those

[narrow niche]

wait but like

[twin apex]

what about the one that are in the game itself

[narrow niche]

idt there are enough levels

:P

maybe im wrong

[hidden ridge]

Yeah there are not

[twin apex]

yee thats what I ment

then how would u get the rest ?/

simply dont ?

[narrow niche]

:P

[hidden ridge]

I've no idea what the devs want to do about that, nor if they care tbh

[narrow niche]

lmao

[hidden ridge]

I think (not sure) there's a mod that unlocks all the cosmetics anyway

[twin apex]

Im aware but wouldnt that affect the official game

[narrow niche]

appearance mod uwu

[twin apex]

we're not planning to run mods

[hidden ridge]

Perhaps the devs one day will just put flags on completion that will give you what you miss just as along as you complete 1 level, like it happened for most (or all?) limited cosmetics

[twin apex]

if it mean we're gonna have to run on a different launcher or whatever

[hidden ridge]

I dont think anyone would care, that being said, unless you REALLY like one of those cosmetics, it shouldn't matter

[narrow niche]

no arm gone

:C

[hidden ridge]

Maybe the only really "unique" thing in that pool is the Lugubrious cosmetic (pink palette)

[narrow niche]

arm prosthetic

[hidden ridge]

Consider that I'm permanently missing like 5-6 cosmetics because of the rundown completion bug of the beginning of alt r4-5

[twin apex]

here's the thing I dont like shotrt cutting my way thru the game, me and my crew enjoy unlocking things
so Im just simply asking if there's enough level to unlock all cosmetic

[hidden ridge]

So it's not like I can't emphatize a bit

[hidden ridge]

No

ALL of them, AFAIK no

[twin apex]

I read somewhere they said completing secondary also give cosmetic

[narrow niche]

shoulda reset

[twin apex]

so thats not a thing ?

[narrow niche]

:P

[hidden ridge]

old info from OG R6

Nowadays cosmetics are only granted on Main sectors

[narrow niche]

no longer the system

:P

[hidden ridge]

Secondary/Overload/PE are just for Achievements basically

[narrow niche]

and a helmet on rundown completion

[narrow niche]

wait did r7 not have it too?

:p

its been a while

[hidden ridge]

I dont think so

[narrow niche]

i coulda sworn random apparel only started with alt

[hidden ridge]

Oh no wait you're right

It DID

then they changed it on release of Alt R1

[narrow niche]

:P

yea

[twin apex]

91 random mission completion rewards.
88 if we exclude the random free helmet, torso, and legs granted to new players - leaving 87 opportunities to earn cosmetics from mission completion.

this was from wiki

so I would miss 1

[hidden ridge]

I think that count doesn't take into account og r6 cosmetics or limited edition stuff like Tigris Mask and the Black Friday palette (which looked identical to another palette but whatever)

[twin apex]

did R8 added any new cosmetic

[narrow niche]

yes

[twin apex]

cause I got a color pallete and a helm that wasnt on wiki

[narrow niche]

theres like 12? cosmetics you cant get

[twin apex]

anywhere I can check that out

[narrow niche]

that are random

[hidden ridge]

12+1 from R8, yes

[narrow niche]

:P

[twin apex]

so only 1 new helm from R8 ??

12 being the limited right ?

[narrow niche]

no

r8 has levels

so more chances

but also came with cosmetics

[twin apex]

how many cosmetics

and where

can i check them

[jaunty latch]

check if the wiki got update yet

though you might as well just go in blind since the drops are randomized

[twin apex]

jc guys I just want to see what they look like-

[latent cedar]

https://gtfo.fandom.com/wiki/Apparel

Updated for the newest update

hope it helps

[twin apex]

been checking that one already

pretty sure missing some items still

[latent cedar]

you or wiki?

[dry pumice]

Wiki.

It definetely does.

I have like 2 or 3 new helmets that are not there.

[dry pumice]

(not recolours either - like actually new models, one in particular is very cool looking)

[hidden escarp]

Hi! I have a question - is there 'achievements' like channel for discussion and/or hints regarding those?

[dry pumice]

No, no achievement-related channels yet...
Hey @lilac fulcrum , @shadow flower , think we can make it happen? It would actually be very useful, i think.

GTFO

gtfo-achievements
Something like that

Actually "gtfo-steam-achievements" would be more correct

[hidden escarp]

that would be amazing 🙂

[lilac fulcrum]

Message @uneven gulch and ask the admins

[dry pumice]

Done.

[craggy pier]

are you just supposed to kite in r8c1

instead of killing

[dry pumice]

Shrug, i doubt it

[hardy grotto]

the kiting level

no u just shoot

[craggy pier]

wait if you do the 2nd command you don't have to do main too?

you just extract

and that's PE?"

[dry pumice]

From what i understand the overload REPLACES the main

As i previously said - they are basically same thing. Roughly same room layout, just different enemies and more intense codding.

It'd be crazy to ask people to do the other one too. Just overworking your players.

[craggy pier]

yeah also after OV

it's a regular ass error alarm

you can just clear them out

it's like 3 strikers error

i thought it straight up didnt stop

some youtube comment says that if you do secondary first then overload is harder because enemies don't stop spawning inbetween terminals!?

wtf

[dry pumice]

that.... Sounds interesting.

Will keep that in mind.

Although wait... Then you'll have to do secondary with error alarm on the tail.

[craggy pier]

and the ov alarm is easy asf

[dry pumice]

Hm. Weird.

[craggy pier]

yeah let 1 guy deal with them

it's like 4 strikers

sledgehammer em who cares

[dry pumice]

Honestly just pain in the ass either way.

But i'll consider the alternative route.

[craggy pier]

why does that even happen like

[dry pumice]

Either some oversight or its the intended quirkiness of the level.

The theme of R8 seems to be "choices"

Levels give you options how to do them, and you can pick the poison that suits you more.

[craggy pier]

this isn't much of an option

either get curbstomped in overload or let 1 guy deal with the error in secondary

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

which one is better

[dry pumice]

Well, said guy better be cracked

Because 4 strikers are definetelly gonna kill me

(i'm a spear main who doesn't aim good)

[craggy pier]

bruh

come on they're 4

equip shotgun

[dry pumice]

I can kill them 1 by 1 if they're spread out

But if they bumrush the room i can kill one and get immediately bitten by other 3

[craggy pier]

Jarvis, type out skill issue and hit enter

[dry pumice]

Wait...

Is that why air filtration restart doesn't actually do anything

Because that's the point of the secondary

And what it seems to supposed to be doing is fixing the whole fog problem

But it doesn't actually do that

Air filtration is having techical issues all the same

What is this ass-backwards design

Inb4 its confirmed to be an oversight and is fixed in next patch

Get your PE clears until its too late, people

[hazy wedge]

The filtration does work, it’s just inconsistent

Probably intentional

[timid grove]

how long dose R8E1 take with secondary?

[upper ginkgo]

less than 30

[civic wave]

most runs are around 90m

which is a bit short when you consider that competitive events are normally 100, 200, 400, or 800m

[timid grove]

what is kds deep?

[dry pumice]

The storage sight for people in hydrostasis. Allegedly there's like 10.000 people or something stored in there.

[waxen jetty]

kds deep = r5e1

[dry pumice]

technically correct

[wind wren]

If I kill a awake enemy via meele, can that trigger sleeping enemies to wake up?

[supple kiln]

omg i’ve never seen another wild paper engineer outside of my college

hell yea 😎

[supple kiln]

you have a few seconds after waking up an enemy before it alerts everything around it, if you melee it before it screams then you can keep everything quiet

at least i’m pretty sure that’s how that mechanic works

[wind wren]

That's not exactly my question. What I'm trying to ask is if kills on awake enemies can trigger long-range aggro/short-range aggro or whatever its called when 2 enemies are standing less than 4m apart (or 5? Idk)
I've heard smth abt it b4 but idk if it's true/how it works exactly

[civic wave]

it should be able to, yeah

[wind wren]

It'd make stealthing quickly a lot easier since the (imo) bs mechanic that long-range aggro is wouldn't matter anymore and groups of 4 wouldn't be a problem anymore either

[civic wave]

it depends on proximity/long range aggro I guess

if the awake enemy is right next to a sleeping one I think it'd wake up

and you could also get long range aggro from it I guess, an enemy killed is an enemy killed

[wind wren]

I see, unfortunate.

It was too good to be true ig
Thanks : D

[hazy wedge]

If the awake enemy woke up from killing a sleeping one, it shouldn't wake up any others unless you don't kill it fast. 90% of the time, the others don't wake up from my experience. Other 10 is just me being an idiot

[olive robin]

no theres this thing called long aggro

if you kill an enemy, and another is within 15m, has line of sight, and is glowing, theres a chance it wakes up

knife allegedly makes that chance lower?

[dry pumice]

In your humble opinion lads: which level would be best for beating without using guns?

[olive robin]

that one where you speedrun to the matter wave projector i guess?

[dry pumice]

R1B1 again, i suppose? Only gotta do 1 alarm and then just stealth forever

[olive robin]

since you just go in and out

[olive robin]

that too actually

[dry pumice]

I guess i could try like... Soloing that level without bots... But dear lord, how the fuck am i supposed to do that scan with melee only

Kite them around to say hello to sentry again?

[olive robin]

actually

use auto sentry maybe?

take advantage of piercing

[dry pumice]

Nevermind

It says SPECIFICALLY an A-tier level

[olive robin]

oh

then do r6a1

[dry pumice]

Any A-tiers out there that have like NO extraction or error alarms?

Imma about to start posting LFGs specifically aiming for achievements

I cannot remember for the life of my what R2A1 is

[olive robin]

try r6a1

[dry pumice]

I don't know man

Whole 3 alarms

[olive robin]

oh

hmm

i mean

[dry pumice]

First one i'll survive

[olive robin]

you should prob get 4 people right?

[dry pumice]

I probably should.

[olive robin]

OR

[dry pumice]

Doing this alone just looks like pain.

[olive robin]

they let you give bots no guns

[dry pumice]

okay, i'm gonna do a test drop into R2A1, see if i remember the objective.

Its only collecting some stupid samples, surely no extraction alarms

[olive robin]

whats the worst that could happen?

besides your death

[cloud fox]

r2a1 has alarm once you start extracting

[civic wave]

you can do any a tier if you take mines/foam/sentry

[dry pumice]

Oh yeah, if only i could carry 3 fucking tools at once

You people don't seem to understand that i'm trying to limit my social exposure as much as i possibly can while i get this game done. Any actual teamplays are for real actual levels only.

[civic wave]

if you really wanted, I could join you for a quick duo r1a1 with 2 sentries or mines/foam

no vc req

[dry pumice]

I'll ping you if i fail this R2A1

But i might, because memories are coming back to me

This is where devs realized their game is too easy

I especially love that scan speed is the same for one person

Very fair and balanced

Oh shit

I just performed the new dodge

Its a lot stronger than i remember

[civic wave]

don't worry, the stamina consumption makes it awful to use

[dry pumice]

never cared for it much

why start now

[worldly perch]

in e2 I get 1 minute timer after the drop. is this normal? I watch a video and people there have 5 minutes timer

[sturdy glen]

read the warden text

[worldly perch]

[Status Unknown]

[sturdy glen]

no the stuff thats on the side of the screen when playing the level

[dry pumice]

Is that a class IV in my fucking A level

Cringe

[worldly perch]

got it, thanks

[sturdy glen]

gl hf

[dry pumice]

Yep, there i go

Not only its a class IV but its a class IV with giants

No sentry is gonna save me from that

@civic wave I'm ready to take your offer.

[civic wave]

alright, you wanna host or should I?

[dry pumice]

Your prefference

I can just send you code right now

[civic wave]

sure

[finite oracle]

does the hammer and the bat have a lingering effect when swung, or is it just the knife and the spear?

[sturdy glen]

all the melees do

[dry pumice]

C-tier expedition without using tools...

Hmmm...

[civic wave]

for that I did full team r1c2 last night, took 25 mins

bit awkward though

[sturdy glen]

r2c2s what we did

[dry pumice]

R1C2... With bots... That's chargers, right?

[civic wave]

yeah, some chargers

[dry pumice]

Was that the one with mega-scan in a large warehouse or something? Warden door?

[sturdy glen]

just a class 4 but yeah

[civic wave]

r2c2 is the error alarm ID level

[dry pumice]

Hmmmmmmmmmm

[civic wave]

where half of it is under infectious fog

[dry pumice]

I dont trust bots to handle chargers

[ashen frigate]

I mean, you can just shoot

[sturdy glen]

do you mean 1 zone pachi

[civic wave]

yes, but I like to scare people

[dry pumice]

What other potential ideas are out there

R6C1? Some of the scans are scuffed though... Also the error alarm, fuck that.

R6C2 main only? I do NOT remember anything prior to the security door where hybrids spawn

Hm, R1 seems to just universall the be choice. That RUndown 1 difficulty showing through.

But damn, chargers with bots... That's gonna be cringe

Remind me what's the interaction between Bots and HEL weapons?

It doesn't work on them or?

[civic wave]

it should work on them, might hurt you loads though

[dry pumice]

Theyt surprisingly don't shoot me that often

[hazy wedge]

Ik there is long aggro, just saying killing the awake one shouldn’t alert any more unless you goof the melee

[hidden ridge]

To my experience it used not to update well for clients

But yeah basically just ||use ADMIN (press tab) on nearly any terminal in the map to gain 5 mins||

[sturdy glen]

yeah ik, but someone in the lobby will be able to see it prolly and I dont wanna just tell them straight out

[midnight tulip]

I've done the moving scans in R8B4 a few times now and I never encountered a snatcher but this time we did, is this normal?

[twin apex]

am I using the burst cannon wrong

dont think u suppose to aim for the head right

I saw people saying its a giant killers but

not getting the dmg I imagined

[civic wave]

giant has 120 hp
burst cannon deals 22 damage per bullet
you kill in 6 bullets

it is one of the better giant killers out there

[narrow niche]

2 bursts to body is a kill

one to back

[light kestrel]

Should be there every time

[midnight tulip]

perhaps I was just always skipping it with bioscan speed before

[twin apex]

I went to watch some vids

people 1 burst and then tap them w whatever weapon once after that

and its a kill

was it nerfed

[civic wave]

they changed how many bullets it fires per burst in r8

[narrow niche]

its a 3 shot burst now

can you not tell?

[craggy pier]

(which is based)

[civic wave]

3 burst is not the worst thing imaginable but like

slower output and way more approachable to use

it makes me sad

[narrow niche]

hm

no more speed on boss kills

:P

[craggy pier]

it is so comfy

[narrow niche]

scattter uwu

[civic wave]

worse in every situation where I'd want to use burst cannon

well, new 3 burst vs 5 burst anyway

[craggy pier]

yeah but more versatile

and it perfectly kills giants now

[narrow niche]

i mean

one headshot before

:P

[civic wave]

I'd say it's more economical, not more versatile

[craggy pier]

both

the recoil helps it in general

it's usable now

[narrow niche]

if there are exactly 3 strikers approaching you

[craggy pier]

even long range

[narrow niche]

the new burst is better

:p

[civic wave]

it was always usable, just had to work around the recoil

[narrow niche]

mag no longer lines up with burst numbers

you can get a one shot burst

[craggy pier]

thats good

you get a 2 shot burst now

[civic wave]

only if you assume 100% accuracy and hitting perfect bursts

[craggy pier]

for those pesky 2 strikers

[civic wave]

which is unlikely to happen with a burst of 3

[craggy pier]

very hihg ammo efish

[narrow niche]

i mean

idk

[twin apex]

oh shoot, true I didnt notice actually

[civic wave]

good luck if the strikers are side to side instead of running towards you in a line

[narrow niche]

bruhhh

[narrow niche]

swipe left :P

aimin.

[twin apex]

what about scatter

seem like a meme gun

[narrow niche]

scatter does 152 damage

you will kill the giant

[civic wave]

you're talking a lot of burst cannon for someone who I've never seen using burst cannon

[narrow niche]

have you ever seen me?

:P

[civic wave]

once or twice, but still

[narrow niche]

how is that

[tardy ingot]

Dw its only a top 2 special weapon

[narrow niche]

ok

scatter against anything big is so real

2 shot ||mom||

[civic wave]

I'll maintain that 5 burst is better for killing multiple strikers, and killing bosses

maybe less economical for killing giants, but whatever, you can swap to primary to finish them off

[narrow niche]

hm

[civic wave]

would rather fire 3 hel revo into a giant than spend the time having to charge a second burst of 3 (comparing old 5 burst to new 3 burst)

[narrow niche]

they shoulda lowered charge time

uwu

just make the gun automatic

trust me

[tardy ingot]

Unironically more so as a 5 burst

finishing off with main > 1 extra burst cannon bullet

[narrow niche]

tbf it perfectly kills to back now

and thats important

trust

[civic wave]

I'd rather have the speed of spreading 3 bursts across 2 giants I think

or just 1 burst into each into primary

like I know burst cannon is still one of the greatest guns in the game, but boy would I take 5 burst any day

even if it was 19 damage tbh

maybe I'm just stupid though

[narrow niche]

eh i mean 19 dmg would make it kinda ass for strikers

[worthy remnant]

Hi, I'm sorry, I don't speak English well, there may be spelling errors
In 7th rundown we interacted with a child
Why?
Is Warden more than just a Biocom protocol?
Warden wants to make our planet habitable again or does he have his own plans
Where did Schaeffer go and what happened to him?
Where there any plans for other ending apart from this one?
What happened to main characters behind the scenes?
Will there be any document?

[narrow niche]

check #gtfo-lore

[dry pumice]

There is a pinned summary document located in #gtfo-lore

[fickle mulch]

the 7th rundown thing was to create another clone

its never explained why we do it

[midnight tulip]

can you save the wales in R8B4?

[sleek fog]

What level is the first error alarm? Too lazy to load into the game to check lol

[past mesa]

R4e1 only tank error

[ocean spindle]

wha

[sleek fog]

I thought it was earlier than that

[sturdy glen]

r2c2

[digital mural]

its earlier

[sleek fog]

Thx

[ocean spindle]

first error its c2 yeah

what was that

[past mesa]

Mb

I can’t read

First error is r1a1 ?

[tepid sand]

Jish is correct

It is R1A1

[ocean spindle]

no its training isnt it

[jagged shore]

first alarm labelled error is r2e1
first alarm that goes on forever is r1a1 extraction
first non-extraction perma error is r2c2

[past mesa]

It is training but that comes from r6

[tepid sand]

I didn’t play training first

[past mesa]

So it isn’t first

It also isn’t a level

[digital mural]

thats extraction alarm

[tepid sand]

Wrong

It is HSU alarm

[ocean spindle]

doesnt it come from r7

[tepid sand]

Still an error

[past mesa]

Idk

[digital mural]

same thing
you are basically at the run for extraction

[tepid sand]

Not the same thing

[digital mural]

but i guess it can be considered error alarm

[tepid sand]

You can say that stepping on extract and something spawning afterwards is an extraction alarm

[past mesa]

It really isn’t it is an alarms that doesn’t end it is an error

[tepid sand]

Also I’m pretty sure there R4C3 overload is an HSU error

Which isn’t extract

[digital mural]

i got it now

[ocean spindle]

whats an SMG dmg booster, wiki says short rifle benefits from it instead of 'rifle dmg boosters'

[lunar jewel]

do some logs count as one?

[austere cloak]

i cant see the silhouette of the shadows enemy when i use my flashlight. is it connected at settings?

[native sun]

Yes. If you find out which ones count as duplicates/require multiple to count as one I'd love to know

[lunar jewel]

Im going to assume so since I've done 33 logs, only have 31 from the achievement and 2 sets have only a one number difference

[native sun]

No such thing, just some random misinfo, now removed from the wiki

[austere cloak]

help me plz im so having trouble

[tepid sand]

Putting shadow resolution at max helps

Otherwise sometimes level lighting is ass

Heard sometimes turning up contrast helps as well

Though I believe it only applies to HDR monitors?

[hazy wedge]

How much does this affect performance because mine has always been high, but never set to very high

[tepid sand]

High should be enough, but you might have to compensate for it

Or tank the frame

Each person’s rig is different, so it’s best to experiment and gather your own data

[hazy wedge]

[gleaming salmon]

i like to max everything for eye candy

[austere cloak]

my situation is i cant copletely see it. praying hard this works thanks

hm

i want to send my scrrenshot but i cant

sadge

[austere cloak]

wich stage can i find shadow monster fastest?

[tepid sand]

R5D2

You can send a screenshot in #gtfo-media

[long osprey]

can anyone help with r1c1

[tepid sand]

Try the LFG channels

[austere cloak]

someone having shadow non silhouette bug? me and my 2 friend are having same problem. we cant see any literally any silhouette from shadow even we use flashlight to them

[rose stirrup]

is there some gun tierlist or smth?

[tepid sand]

Mains: #gtfo-media message
Specials: #gtfo-media message

[hidden ridge]

Dont know if it's ok to ask this here and not in spoiler chat, so i'll spoiler tag it ||any particular strategy for doing the last two class 6 in R8E2||?

[tepid sand]

Foam helps a lot

If you’re lucky you can permafoam one part of the alarm

Also closing/mining doors 2 away from alarm

[dry pumice]

Do you guys think bringing scatter into no-tool-expedition is a good idea? To nuke those waves when they open the door (in case i don't have a mine available)?

[narrow niche]

hel shotty?

[dry pumice]

You're gonna laugh, but i found shooters to be the absolute bane of my existence

Bots don't do anything about them and i can't land a headshot from 15m if i tried

[narrow niche]

bruhhh

hm

[dry pumice]

So they just pile up until there's like a squad of 7 of them just peppering my whole squad and i can't do shit because i'm too busy staving off the 10 strikers plus giant that try to eat me

[narrow niche]

you could...

bring a secondary?

special

whatever

[dry pumice]

Every day i play anything but the bullpup is a day of suffering

[narrow niche]

wh

[hardy grotto]

You could’ve just said every day is a day of suffering

[narrow niche]

LMAO

[dry pumice]

HEL LMG, HEL LMG, i demand a HEL LMG

i need it

[narrow niche]

thats what i said

i was joking

but

[dry pumice]

maybe i should try HEL PP...

[narrow niche]

its good now

:p

[jaunty latch]

bring AR then

[dry pumice]

I might unironically start using Short Rifle at this point

Then i'll just bring some OP main that can nuke giants and work with that

[narrow niche]

just use revo or smth

[modest monolith]

short rifle is like the Veruta machine gun, but in semi-automatic version

i kinda like it

[narrow niche]

its like har

but not har

hsr?

[modest monolith]

fast reload, decent damage (headshot strikers at short range)

[narrow niche]

hsar?

[modest monolith]

easy ADS

[dry pumice]

I thought Bullpup comparison is more ampt

Comfy sight, almost zero recoil, great sight picture - very easy to switch targets and tactically deliver pain where its needed

What's the prec on that again...

0.7413x
that's an oof

Would it really be that broken with 0.9 or even 1.0 or something?...

They gotta buff that thing, man. 4.5 for a gun of that size is not it

[hidden ridge]

oof backwards is foo

[narrow niche]

fooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooor fucks sake

[narrow niche]

i mean

its the size of the hsmg

[dry pumice]

It should've been burst

x3 slow type

[craggy pier]

HEY GUYS DID YOU KNOW THAT IN TERMS OF FEMALE SLEEPER AND MALE PRISONER BREEDING THAT THE SCOUT

[jaunty latch]

I mean if you cant aim thats not going to help much lol

gun itself is decent if your fine destroying your hands though

[dry pumice]

My performance is linked to the comfortability of the sight. For some reasons i just do not understand Prec Rifle's [^] thing and i just do not vibe with iron sights like on High cal and what not since the gun itself blocks my sight and i pretty much shoot blind.
This is one of the reasons why i like bullpup so much - the little yellow dot in the middle is all i need to know where my bullets are going, and the 0 recoil of it helps even more. I don't even remember what the rest of the sight looks like - i just know there's a dot in the middle.

[jaunty latch]

ah then it will work fine then

[slow stone]

Ik shadow resolution has an impact for shadows, but does shadow quality do anything special?

[tepid sand]

It changes shadow textures

[slow stone]

does it really have much impact? (meaning the enemies)

[dry pumice]

I do seem to see shadows ever so slightly better ever since i upgraded my GPU and slightly cranked up the shadow quality

[hidden escarp]

I have a question - what does rundown stages color mean? some of those are white, some green and some orange? (dunno, im a little colorblind)
Like r6a1 r6a2 r6b2

[ocean spindle]

uh theres no greens, only oranges and whites
whites are normal, orange missions are story missions, a bit more loreful either by dialogue or uh the objective or what u do in the mission

or maybs even some logs

[dry pumice]

He's reffering to the fog on the rundown hologram

And yes, they are different

For the most part it means nothing. I guess green ones tend to have lots of infection in it, but then non-green ones do too, so... Seems to be just raw aesthetics.

[hidden escarp]

hmmmm... so only r6 r7 and r8 are having story/lore oriented missions?
there are logs on almost every stage on every rundown
still kinda confusing for me, but thx for explanation 🙂

[hidden escarp]

for real there is different fog at the bottom of rundown hologram

[ocean spindle]

yeah i mean orange missions usually have more, like direct lore
for example on r7 and r8 u get dialogue spoken to u
on r6 u get a very important thing for the rest of the lore

logs, are everywhere but some of r6s are the most like telling about the future

[hidden escarp]

ok, ok, now i get it

[ocean spindle]

also yeah the fog its just aesthetic i i didnt thought u asked about that but yes it is just

funky funky

[hidden escarp]

hehe 😄 also good to know 😄

50h in the game and still asking newbie questions 😄 thx @ocean spindle and @dry pumice for info

[ocean spindle]

its okiii !

[torn slate]

how do you beat r8b4 man

that extraction sequence is literally impossible

[raven oar]

hey does anyone know about progression reset? i completed R1A1 & R1B1 last week, came back on today and found out my progress is reset lol. I still have the cosmetics from these levels though

[twin apex]

knife cant one shot scout from the front ?

[slow stone]

Front doesnt do enough damage, back of the head works

[digital mural]

nope

[solar portal]

do all melee weapons of the same type function differently from each other or are they just reskins?
