tiny wyvern
#

Or does she wake up rooms too much?

tribal ember
#

Yes

hard nexus
#

but we dont know how badly things are so we can say expect up to 5k hrs learning i guess....

tiny wyvern
#

Or rather, has she completed it?

tribal ember
little pilot
#

u are overestimating the lowest bracket of gamers

hard nexus
#

i do

#

but like

hardy grotto
#

@tribal ember once I’m at my pc I’ll dm you a list of mods that’ll probably help

hard nexus
#

will lowest bracker of gamers even reach 5k

#

at that point they will just not launch game anymore, no?

tribal ember
hard nexus
#

at like halfway thru triple digits, or maaaaybe pushing 4digit

tiny wyvern
#

It's much better for other's to coach and introduce the ideas the game puts up

#

Or in other words, guides might actually help you a lot more than you think

#

Combine that with some mods here and there

#

And you should be good

tribal ember
tiny wyvern
#

This game teaches you nothing about that
And learning from failure will only make misconceptions bite you hard

hard nexus
#

i mean fucking up stealth is bad for like what

#

r6d3

#

thats it?

tiny wyvern
#

She's having trouble in A levels

wet bear
tiny wyvern
#

either she's got really bad connection that makes enemies essentially instant wake
or she's just reacting too slow or misjudging the situation

hard nexus
#

well he can be terminal guy she doesnt have to unless dual uplink or shes closest to reactor at 10 seconds left

#

but like there is two other people right?

hard nexus
#

we can trust in pubs?

tribal ember
tiny wyvern
#

Are you sure?
Have you done enough of this game for you to say for certain you know how it works?

hard nexus
tiny wyvern
# tribal ember No

The more I think about this, how much of this game having you gone through
Like I understand trying to help your wife
but you can't teach her or help her if you don't know what's causing her to fail

hard nexus
#

if you suck at melee i think u need to try focusing on melee crosshair see how it behaves and stuff

tiny wyvern
#

You can learn together, and you can tweak your own stats while you're at it

hard nexus
#

learn together or die together

tiny wyvern
#

^ Yep

#

The suffering is part of the failing, by suffering and failing less you're just learning for longer around here
If you're struggling with R1A1 go to another rundown's A1 and try there, R1A1 isn't the easiest level in the game

hardy grotto
#

sent u the list

tiny wyvern
#

R3A1 and R6A1 both require less knowledge and skill to get through

hard nexus
#

so many folks just rage(quit) when every attempt is basically a learning experience of what the level entails and what went wrong

tribal ember
tribal ember
tiny wyvern
hard nexus
#

its a question of are you into such amount of suffering or not

tiny wyvern
#

Yea manbaron's right

hard nexus
#

just reflect and what went wrong, its normal to fail same mission like 5 times but if u assess ahh ok lets try this instead and stuff u will make it

#

i was there when we wiped like idk 100 times on r7c3 release and we spent 7 hrs in front of computer to do it

#

if u dont have that resolve as new player or entering a new difficult level then prob look up mods that peeps suggested

tiny wyvern
#

hey calle

frail heart
#

CALLE?

tiny wyvern
#

You can come back and ask us

#

That's what this channel is for anyways

#

Hope you'll get the fun out of this game as best you could

hard nexus
#

worst case scenario press matchmake

tiny wyvern
#

or lfg here

#

Playing with folks that know what they're doing

#

And are willing to teach

tribal ember
tiny wyvern
#

Usually makes things a lot smoother

#

Alright that's over with

hard nexus
#

now what

#

may i suggest hel shotgun discussion

tiny wyvern
#

Haven't had that much stamina for a chat like that for quite a while...
Still no tech support stuff

hardy grotto
#

wow your life must be so hard

If you need other people that speak the same language, we have a russian server somewhere

Give me a minute, I'll pull that up

биотрекер не нужен с ним слишком скучно хули ты как спидраннер

grizzled patrol
#

Зачем мины когда есть скаттерган?

minor fractal
#

I'd recommend "duo mode," which is a crude 50% difficulty scaling. Plays fairly well, imo.

hard nexus
minor fractal

Unofficial Modding in highlighted communities has modding instructions, you can just search the name in R2modman.

hard nexus
grizzled patrol
#

Так с модами то, снайпа в первый слот а скаттер в вторичный

hard nexus
#

так снайпа в первом уже есть

#

slug shotgun

grizzled patrol
#

И вправду. Лучшая пушка сразу за снайпой

hard nexus
#

зачем скаттер если есть кувалда

grizzled patrol
#

Зачем кувалда когда есть копьё

#

Дохуя Сильвер по голове не попасть?

hard nexus
#

а зачем копье

fierce walrus
#

why are you all speaking enchanting table language

#

stop that

frail heart
#

Erm, refer to rule 3. 🤓 ☝️

hoary mason
fierce walrus
#

what

frail heart
hard nexus
#

i dont fish react you

hoary mason
fierce walrus
#

wait wait wait wait

hard nexus
#

right

fierce walrus
#

in what context is sniper better than scatter

#

like actually

hard nexus
#

but he explained himself

fierce walrus
#

thats enchanting table language

hard nexus
#

ye then why are u reacting even

hoary mason
#

practically none cause you realistically can't even use the only sniper advantage - range.
Only levels where it seems feasable is r6d1 and r8e2 for kraken figts

hard nexus
#

we were joking around and u took it seriously

frail heart
#

no

tiny wyvern
#

the damn drunkard

fierce walrus
hard nexus
#

sure

#

hel shotgun bad

fierce walrus
#

boring

hard nexus
#

write this on my tombstone

fierce walrus
#

be creative

hoary mason
#

Controversial point:
The weapon is as bad as it's user

fierce walrus
#

like „assault rifle is best auto”

hard nexus
#

it takes one to know one

#

so hel shotgun bad

frail heart
#

😴

past mesa
#

There is a few pre built mods that could help

fierce walrus
past mesa
#

If you haven’t already found them

past mesa
#

If you going be playing at the same time

#

The better weapons and the perfect boosters are probs the least intrusive on the game for you

soft crater
frail heart
#

sniper is just good against kraken

#

you can one mag tumors on r8e2 with 4 snipers lol

safe cradle
#

And if I recall correctly there's also a version called solomode or whatnot

#

That does that but to 1/4

#

Or you could get betterbots aimbot edition but then it really starts becoming just a walk in the park

#

It basically makes it so that the bots cheat even more than they already do

sage pulsar
#

is there any way to get into mega kite strats without the learning curve of a cliff

such as doing the first r2e1 surge by kiting back and forth to do the scans (I'll link if yall ask)

silent delta
#

also mountain goat path isnt that hard, just look into the cliff and mash spacebar

ocean spindle
#

i mean there's a difference between kiting

#

and just being in a cheese spot

#

cause u cannot rlly come back to scans unless u take fall dmg probably

silent delta
#

oh the cheese spot?

sage pulsar
silent delta
#

thats different

ocean spindle
silent delta
#

idk just get good at taking shortcuts the sleepers cant

silent delta
#

on the other side of the room where you can skyrim horse across the cliff to that raised platform in the center

sage pulsar
#

he stalls a few of them by strafing in place

silent delta
#

yeah that works too

#

knowing how licks work is helpful

ocean spindle
#

it's just yeah knowing the path, evading dmg and knowing enemy patterns

#

and managing stamina a lot

sage pulsar
#

hard to learn when he has mega FOVSantonianWhatElse

ocean spindle
#

weird i would think the fov would like be better for learning

#

cause u can see more-

#

if u don't have ur fov up u should

#

specially if ur gonna employ these kinds of strats

#

vision is important

silent delta
#

if i turn my fov too high i walk into sleepers like an idiot

sage pulsar
#

imo takes away the "oh shit it's beside me"

silent delta
ocean spindle
#

so true

silent delta
ocean spindle
silent delta
#

balance of optimization vs atmosphere

ocean spindle
#

i don't have my fov up a ton just like 70 but i never employ kiting or stuff

#

mostly cause i don't want to

sage pulsar
#

I'd still want to dodge if I know the striker is there tho

ocean spindle
#

dodging is one thing and avoiding attacks is another

#

dodging with shift and A or D is always terrible

#

it hinders ur stamina so much u just won't be able to kite if u do it like twice

sage pulsar
#

yeah not that

ocean spindle
#

avoiding attacks it's perfectly fine

#

specially cause u can just walk

silent delta
#

their one weakness: pressing a

digital mural
mossy dome
digital mural
#

Just run in circles

#

Ez

hazy wedge
#

Hanimoon mentioned 😱

#

Now that’s crazy

sage pulsar
mossy dome
#

7 months ago

silent delta
#

crazy?

mossy dome
#

the new one is on other stuff (still cool tho)

#

you can skip to the section about kiting

frail heart
#

FROSTY GOOBER PING MENTIONED

raven sluice
#

high cal pistol can one shot reg scouts right?

silent delta
#

head or back

#

yes

tiny wyvern
#

Like the other side of the room far

raven sluice
#

so just get in alittle close and blast it?

tiny wyvern
#

It's just fyi

#

Headshots should just kill

raven sluice
#

cool thanks yall

silent delta
#

if you're worried about killing scouts, hel rifle is pretty similar to high cal, does the same damage, and doesn't have the range problem

lone mortar
grizzled patrol
#

Just start speaking french and face Stab it with your knife

livid stone
#

High cal best special no diff

soft crater
soft crater
#

Probably could've worded it better

tiny wyvern
soft crater
#

8m

native sun
soft crater
#

Wait nvm

#

For a scout

#

8m is max for 30 dmg-

halcyon current
#

I double killed 2 scouts that were right next to eachother yesterday with melee, pretty happy with myself

soft crater
halcyon current
#

Back to back melee hits, regrettably.

#

I don't think I could've doubled

#

They were literally shoulder to shoulder

livid stone
#

Hmm.. i double killed 2 scouts in 2 different levels

soft crater
halcyon current
#

Me placing a mine down in the team scan to let them know I will do it even tho we've been in this level for 57 minutes

finite oracle
#

how much damage boosters does it take for the dmr to 1shot strikers?

#

and maybe the 8round pistol aswell

tiny wyvern
#

it one shots to head, occi and back

finite oracle
#

its not the high cal one its the main one

tiny wyvern
#

hel rev

finite oracle
#

yes

halcyon current
finite oracle
#

so just any main damage booster?

halcyon current
#

Yes

#

Leaves em with .3 HP or something

finite oracle
#

ok

tiny wyvern
halcyon current
#

Entirely

tiny wyvern
#

Ok I'm not going to try and calculate it then

#

Doesn't look like it's a one percent dif tho

halcyon current
#

It leaves em 1 tap from the hel pp

#

Iirc literally any main damage booster causes it to one shot strikers to the head

tiny wyvern
halcyon current
#

I'm speaking strictly for dmr here

tiny wyvern
#

scout has 42 hp

#

occi is x6

halcyon current
tiny wyvern
#

oh shit

#

my bad

#

Most of the time it's about scouts

#

my mind is faqed

halcyon current
#

You're good

ocean spindle
#

just kill scouts with a machinegun smh

indigo lion
#

your thoughts on 2 foam launchers on r4d2?

#

like 2 foam mines tracker

#

we ran 1 burst but wiped on last alarm

#

feels like turret isn't very efficient against chargers

tiny wyvern
#

Kind of need this context

indigo lion
#

we definetely can't afford overload before main

#

unless we can leave cargo lying at start, beat main and then get back

indigo lion
low radish
#

and bio ofc

past mesa
low radish
#

Yeah, you need to get back for it at the end

#

just don't open the doors to extraction, go back, get the cargo and extract

#

(because when you open the extraction door, the charger alarm starts from what i remember)

tiny wyvern
#

but if you don't plan around overload

#

2 cfoam will kill you even worse

low radish
#

I never took 2 cfoam

tiny wyvern
#

sry pinged wrong guy

low radish
#

So I got no idea how it works

tiny wyvern
#

the jewish guy wanted two cfoam

#

Oh shadows are going to be fun
considering that you knkow

low radish
#

I would say personally that sentry is way better

tiny wyvern
#

I'd agree

low radish
low radish
past mesa
#

All two does is give you 3 extra foam uses ideally you don’t use much sentry either

indigo lion
#

Alrams 6-7 are done with permafoam

past mesa
#

I think it is why double bio became popular

#

In the old days

indigo lion
#

And then foam/mine doors for last

#

And shoot

past mesa
#

How does two foam help you there

indigo lion
#

I just cant find a good place for sentry

low radish
#

there's pletny

indigo lion
#

I fell that its only draining our tool

past mesa
#

Also you can spawn block and perma pen wave 7

indigo lion
#

That can go to foam

past mesa
#

Yup

low radish
#

I mean sentry is free firepower tha drains something else than ammo packs

past mesa
#

but then the choice is two bio or two foam unless you need the 67% starting

#

Bio is probs stronger

past mesa
low radish
#

/hj

low radish
#

it doesn't even need to kill, it can wound them

past mesa
#

Ur right mb we should use sentry into mono charger

low radish
#

there is one alarm with only one door, it's a great funnel there for sentry since you are far from that spot

little pilot
#

sentry is good imo because second foam launcher is useless unless u really need that 67% foam

low radish
#

I had a 50% tool ammo booster for R4D2 lol

past mesa
#

What alarm do you go we need sentry here tgb

#

Maybe class 8?

little pilot
low radish
#

I used it for all of them tbh

little pilot
#

the higher class alarms are meh since u shoot/foam anyway

civic wave
#

yeah you can use some sentry in the first alarms in place of foam

past mesa
#

2nd and 3rd aren’t the issues?

low radish
#

at least majority, to save the ammo

civic wave
#

and then for the final alarm but like

#

it's still sorta weird

little pilot
#

but again, minimal difference

past mesa
#

You kill the 1 2 3 alarms in like one wave?

low radish
#

adn there is overload to do and extraction

little pilot
#

3 u fight another wave

#

with best rng

#

with worse rng u can fight 4 waves

past mesa
#

And you get it every time

little pilot
low radish
past mesa
low radish
#

I mean this is not R2E1, no need to run around you can just defend, the faster you do the scans the better

past mesa
#

you just kill slow tgb

little pilot
#

yea

past mesa
#

you do everything normal but just kill slow

little pilot
#

and u get a scan that splits from up top of stairs into down below twice

past mesa
#

close door spend 15% foam

#

Surely it is less than anything else?

tardy ingot
#

just dont refill it

low radish
#

Am i the only one who did R4D2 like an alien way

tardy ingot
#

LOL

past mesa
#

Don’t refill it

little pilot
past mesa
#

it is way better

tardy ingot
#

take a burst to deal with the striker alarms + shooting
Foam what you dont wanna shoot

past mesa
#

On the foam 100% because that is bad rng tgb

#

You use the res with foam on bad var else you never use it

low radish
past mesa
#

na it isn’t

#

You can just shoot the waves

low radish
#

i mean, usually yeah but there's always alternate options

past mesa
#

Like class 7 you just shoot it class 8 is nasty and kinda variance dependent sometimes

#

With shooting

#

Class 6 is just two waves everytime

low radish
#

on class 8 i would just use the sentry tbh

#

that bit of help

little pilot
#

especially since class 6 and 7 are basically free

past mesa
#

Yeah save tool on 7 then perma foam 8

low radish
little pilot
#

6 is bit hard to shoot so foaming it is kinda worth

past mesa
#

okay

low radish
#

so we did it with sentry help

#

on the worse ones

tardy ingot
#

Jish, gotta remember

#

Are they using weapons that kill

#

Or mgs/short rifle/pr

low radish
#

...I am not letting my shelling nano go

civic wave
#

not the microgun

low radish
#

I love it

tardy ingot
low radish
#

I just like playing with bad weapons tbh

#

Dunno why but i kind of really like that shitty pistol

tardy ingot
#

but ye
If they have hel rifle obviously shooting class 5 and 7 is pretty chill

low radish
#

my friend always takes it

#

or the precision rifle

tardy ingot
#

but if they dont and arent as experienced they might run into ammo issues so having a sentry help through early alarms isnt bad

Just dont refill it

little pilot
#

4 shotgun sentries, 4 sawed off 4 normal shotguns is the best loadout anyway

past mesa
#

I think if you have provisions it doesn’t matter what you take

tardy ingot
#

will be rough ngl

#

:^ )

past mesa
tardy ingot
#

slug carry

little pilot
#

ngl

past mesa
#

Just do the overload

low radish
#

take 4 shelling nanos, trust me

past mesa
#

And kite

#

Right

#

Surely that is the play

little pilot
#

nah i think that is still shootable

#

just think about it

#

u got the ammo

tardy ingot
little pilot
#

it's just whether or not u can shoot the chargers in time

tardy ingot
#

its such a boring copout

low radish
past mesa
#

yeah you can kill the waves with the loadout

#

It is not nice tho

#

Snipers killing 8 is pretty

#

Good

tardy ingot
#

killing waves shouldnt be too hard til ammo is suddenly poof

little pilot
#

tho*

past mesa
#

You have full proficiency

low radish
#

I was thinking, are there any expeditions where the shotgun sentry is like at home or really good

tardy ingot
#

A bit less than 9 kills/refill in total

low radish
#

i never saw anyone play it that much

little pilot
#

dogshit

#

everywhere

#

absolute

#

piece

past mesa
tardy ingot
#

so you get about 15 kills/refill total with full profficiency?

little pilot
#

of garbage

past mesa
#

very good

low radish
#

Yeah i heard of it's bad sides

tardy ingot
#

thats 1 wave per ammo roughly

little pilot
#

should get double ammo to be even remotely worth it

low radish
#

is it really THAT ba-

#

oh

tardy ingot
#

Whats the amount of ammo uses vs waves?

little pilot
#

wait eva, shotgun sentry with 110 bullets would even be decent?

low radish
#

give it 1 k bullets

past mesa
#

I think shotgun sentry should shoot faster

little pilot
#

if u double the ammo it gets per tool refill. So instead of 56 max bullets at 100% it goes to 110

tardy ingot
#

its the inability to hit

past mesa
#

surely that would fix its issues SantonianWhatElse

tardy ingot
#

if you make it perfectly accurate rn

little pilot
#

also mb it has 66 ammo

tardy ingot
#

It probably exlipses all other sentries

tardy ingot
little pilot
#

nah, just buff the ammo up to the point where it missing 90% of the shots is no longer an issue

#

surely it works

low radish
#

i just remembered hel sentry exists

past mesa
little pilot
low radish
#

THAT will solve everything

past mesa
#

like if we give it 1000 bullets we should have any extra uptime for the sentry

#

That would be a waste

low radish
past mesa
little pilot
past mesa
little pilot
#

with correct placement it can do work. (it still gets shit on by ladder foaming but honestly what doesnt)

low radish
#

i'd never think it would be useful in R2E1

little pilot
tardy ingot
#

Hel auto becomes more useful when you need to stop (and kill) a lot of enemies in a short choke (preferably ladder based)

but you rarely have smth like that where you dont want to use it a lot

And hel auto sentry is smth you wanna use like once or twice

tardy ingot
past mesa
#

But yeah

low radish
past mesa
#

Mom aggro manipulation goes hard

tardy ingot
#

hel auto sentry funnily enough is turning out to be a strong choice for speedruns

little pilot
#

yea people use as if it a burst sentry. which just goes hard into throwing all ur tool down the drain

low radish
#

GTFO speedruns are interesting

low radish
#

doesn't seem so useful because of it tbh

civic wave
past mesa
#

If you turn it around in tight corners it never shoots at its bad range

tardy ingot
past mesa
low radish
#

Perfect sentry

tardy ingot
past mesa
#

Yup

little pilot
past mesa
#

but in gtfr hel auto has been useful

tardy ingot
#

Problem solved

low radish
#

imagine shadow tanks

tardy ingot
#

eh boring

ocean spindle
#

me when person just say "what if enemy but shadow!"

low radish
#

imagine they can also hit you

#

like instead of vore

civic wave
#

@past mesa what is burst cannon in gtfr?

low radish
past mesa
tardy ingot
#

Snatchers are the one enemy (if slightly reworked) where cloaking being added would make for a sick variant

ocean spindle
#

nommin u is kinda their whole thing

#

if u take it away it's like- why

civic wave
ocean spindle
low radish
#

that's.... not what i had in mind at all

civic wave
#

burst cancel dtr*

past mesa
past mesa
#

mainly because we needed every gun at peak to have the levels be clearable

ocean spindle
#

i think that was the idea

tardy ingot
#

Ye

low radish
#

Hey actually

tardy ingot
#

Also cant be pinged while cloaked

low radish
#

I like that idea

#

mods do your thing

past mesa
#

Okay unironically we are missing two enemies in the game long range projectile shadow.

low radish
#

why did i think of shadow flyers

past mesa
#

you don’t understand

#

It should be hybrid with 75 health shadow

#

Same head muilt

little pilot
low radish
#

"WHERE ARE ALL OF THOSE PROJECTILES COMING FROM!?!?"
yelled someone

tardy ingot
#

ill find where your house lives jish

ocean spindle
#

r4c2 but every single enemy in the level is shadow

past mesa
#

That is common

low radish
tardy ingot
#

i think this game generally needed more mini bosses

#

snatcher/potato (sadly only shows up once)/tank and mom arent enough

past mesa
#

Are great mini bosses

tardy ingot
#

Nightmare scout in waves

ocean spindle
#

i think nightmare scouts should've been a sleeping giant

tardy ingot
#

would have been good

past mesa
#

Are so fucking scary

#

Like we have seen two end full health runs

ocean spindle
#

nightmare big shooters- they would've been practically a boss itself

#

would've been fun

low radish
#

I sort of wish the nightmare giant showed more

ocean spindle
#

maybe with a nerf of shoot delay

#

and a lick :] just to fuck with people

#

those shooter licks

low radish
tardy ingot
#

add another tumor enemy with a ribcage blocking bullets depending on where they are attacking (kinda like big flyer but less clunky and grounded + better attacks)

low radish
ocean spindle
#

an enemy with the top open and a rib cage you gotta shoot through to hot their organs sounds so horrific

low radish
#

or smth

ocean spindle
#

i love it

past mesa
past mesa
#

The shot through the mouth while it is closed

#

Is so good

#

They are so funny tho

low radish
#

i mean it is good

past mesa
#

You don’t understand

#

They are so funny

low radish
#

BUT GOD DO I HATE FLYERS -shotgun player

ocean spindle
#

it's always so funny how big flyers look huge and then u see them from the side
squish

past mesa
#

But flier comes down the ladder and just sits there

#

just hanging out

#

Seeing what everyone is up to

low radish
ocean spindle
#

they be funny

past mesa
#

Then decides 5 mins later to attack

#

After we let it live

#

Then flys into the wall never to be seen again

#

Such a fucking funny enemy

ocean spindle
#

the big flyer experience

#

disappears

low radish
past mesa
#

Clips through the wall chargers up attack kills me then leaves

#

Eva

#

They are so funny

low radish
#

I love how giants clip through stuff sometimes, just to hit me

#

they're clearly anti women /j

tardy ingot
past mesa
#

Good skill expression

low radish
#

that's what i had in mind, it's a great warning but also an oppurtunity you can't miss

tardy ingot
past mesa
tardy ingot
low radish
#

happens to me everyday

past mesa
#

It is so funny to

tardy ingot
low radish
#

they just clip, ortheir tongues

#

they hate me

past mesa
#

So stagger, scream(walk) tounge and melee

tardy ingot
#

Enemy tounges curving is always funny

in vanilla? think i've heard that yea but couldn't as they were short in time or something

low radish
#

sleepaz hate me

ocean spindle
#

i mean they probs couldn't do a ton of balance testing on how to use new enemy in new level so

#

they just kept it there

#

locked away for eternity

#

smh

low radish
#

oh my god not R8A2, i went crazy there

#

it was always one person dying

#

and then fail, like 20 times

ocean spindle
#

teehee

#

funny level

#

i tried doing it with bots and i did got to the ending but

#

funny walk back was gonna be next to impossible

#

it means i found somethine they cant speak about( kinda knew)

low radish
#

Uh, huh?

#

my brain is not working properly today 😭

ocean spindle
low radish
#

I mean why go somewhere where i don't want to

#

I would go there for my best friend though, he hasn't completed that one

past mesa
#

R8a2 secondary is a good joke

#

Tbh it doesn’t play to well

low radish
#

the secondary feels like an expedition on it's own

#

it's so different from main

  • a person who never did main fully
ocean spindle
#

i think it's a very fun different expedition, it does feel super out of the box but that's kinda the point of it

past mesa
#

It is

ocean spindle
#

and even if hard when u don't know what ur doing still nice

past mesa
#

Nightmare error in secondary to get to the door

#

Kinda sucks

past mesa
#

scatter being forced is funny

#

but I think your not supposed to kill the bosses

ocean spindle
#

i don't think it sucks- the level is very clearly wanting you to die, and it is not nearly as nauseating as d2 final error when u actually have to redo all that

ocean spindle
#

it's more forced on c2 and hell- b4

#

u just need to kill a single mom and tank and u can get away with anything for those

ocean spindle
#

since they are isolated

ocean spindle
low radish
#

i didn't set my foot there yet

ocean spindle
#

the ending for d2 it's- it's a bit ass

#

it's fun but it's absolutely a hard punch for a level that was so nicely balanced

past mesa
#

R8d2 ending is kinda just unfortunate mono nightmare waves suck

low radish
#

1 giant every 8 seconds

#

or something like that

ocean spindle
#

it didn't had to be ||a surge, it could've just been waves, or at least just fucking tell u about it kdmksmd||

ocean spindle
low radish
#

nope

ocean spindle
#

oh maybe the nerf

low radish
#

1 giant and 8 strikers, plus a surge

ocean spindle
#

idk i don't remember

#

plus what

low radish
#

surge alarm i think

ocean spindle
#

b4 was a couple nightmares if u did sec, and then an error that ramps up

low radish
#

And an error with 1 giant and 8 strikers 8 seconds i think

tiny wyvern
#

wiki says 1 giant and 5 strikers

#

not 8

#

5

low radish
#

my bad

#

i played that one a looong time ago

tiny wyvern
#

and usually you don't see it anyways

ocean spindle
#

there's no surge except in sec- and by then u don't have the error, it's just an alarm

low radish
ocean spindle
#

u probs played it before the nerf

#

it felt like a surge but it wasn't

low radish
#

when was the nerf?

ocean spindle
#

much like d4

#

uhhh

#

like february? march?

low radish
#

this year?

tiny wyvern
#

I'll pull it up

#

give me a min

ocean spindle
#

beginnings of the year for sure

#

:3 thank u

low radish
#

Nope, i played before i think

#

or did i

#

wait when did i even start the game

tiny wyvern
past mesa
#

B4 nerf was not the thing that needed the nerf. Just give us more repellers and a better holding tile on first cell grab

#

!!!!!! Insane

tiny wyvern
#

The trinkle wave adjustment

ocean spindle
#

the funny

#

i think the nerf was warranted even for the difficulty r8 has
maybe it was slightly too hard nerf, but the infection was too much of a funny to keep the waves like that

low radish
#

i remember the alarm from picking up what was it

#

data sphere?

ocean spindle
#

the alarm starts when u open the main door

low radish
#

OH i remember now

ocean spindle
#

u can grab the sphere

low radish
#

yeah

#

you're right

tiny wyvern
#

I remember doing runbacks to the term to lower fog again

#

Then getting to the end

#

And finding out you have bad rng

#

so you die anyways

#

lovely game

low radish
#

my life

ocean spindle
#

what's bad rng in b4

#

a bad cell position?

tiny wyvern
#

Did it prenerf I think

low radish
#

I once ran next to the cell and didn't realise

ocean spindle
#

idk i never thought of it being rng
not at least in the ways something like c1 ov or r7d1 can be

#

i also did it prenerf but did the command

#

so no infection

tiny wyvern
#

The run cost too much ammo for us for some reason
I was still new back then so I didn't really get it

ocean spindle
#

i think i did the level like once after the nerf and i don't remember much of it

#

i just remember being marginally easier to hand out ammo

indigo lion
#

also how fast does the fog rise in r4d2?

#

approximately

past mesa
#

168

strange jolt
#

actually im not sure if the fog rises since you just kinda go down to lower areas where the fog is

#

but infection speed is slow to clarify

whole summit
#

One of the bots is stuck in a wall, is there a way to get them out?

strange jolt
#

lock the slot in the escape menu

#

then unlock it again to reload the bot

indigo lion
low radish
#

Like that it infects you almost always

safe cradle
low radish
#

Yes

safe cradle
#

Yes it goes up 100%

#

as in basically everything (save perhaps a part of Secondary?) gets engulfed in fog in about 30-40mins or less

silent delta

high cal has 8m/65m, hel rifle has 40m/80m

Through a lot of the map

soft crater

I clarified it shortly after

silent delta
#

idk i checked my inbox for pings and went from that

#

oh i see

#

i think your goob wording excuses a bit of confusing

soft crater
#

But yeah high cal starts losing dmg after 8m

silent delta

it feels like more of a shotgun than the choke mod does

the cell spawning in a deeper spot, (also being 2 rooms in) and generally being harder to spot if you dont know about its set spawn in event rly sucks

Couple that with the mentioned worse holding/funnel spot and yikes

mighty bison
#

i still dont get how to solo giants. I hit them from the back with spear and they wake up

#

and then he deals damage even before the swinging animation

digital mural
#

you have spear
make some distance dont stay too close (this rule applies to all melees)

#

also you have to charge like 60% with spear to break a limb and stagger him

#

keep him stagger = he wont attack

mighty bison
#

it never breaks for me for some reason

#

idk is it me missing

#

or just unlucky

silk radish
#

Are you hitting the giant in the back?

mighty bison
#

also it never staggers for some reason\

mighty bison
#

then it turns around

silent delta
#

if you're having trouble, charge your hits more and aim for limbs

digital mural
#

idk how much is for spear

#

i never use spear

silent delta
#

full charge is easiest

digital mural
#

by the time you get full charge with the spear the giant will be already attacking/screaming

#

isnt that one of the first things you want to avoid when soloing a giant?

mighty bison
#

idk 😦

digital mural
#

have you tried hammer?

mighty bison
#

it just doesnt stager for some reason

#

no

#

i run knife or spear

digital mural
#

try using hammer
is a bit easier

mighty bison
#

ok

civic wave
#

if you break a giants chest, you're almost certain to have put it into a state where none of its limbs can break anymore

#

which limits your options for staggering

mighty bison
#

OHH

#

THATS WHY

tardy ingot
#

@mighty bison aim for head first with spear from behind

Its like the only way you dont trol when using spear

mighty bison
#

Ic

#

Thanks

civic wave
#

had a feeling it was chest break

#

I'm too good at this game of deduction

strange valley
#

Why does it say 'alt' in front of some missions?

digital mural
#

Back when the game released a new rundown the old one got removed

#

After rundown 7 they decided to bring back the old rundowns as "alt" with some minor and major changes

#

The major change is the lore

#

But youll see later

strange valley
#

Aah I see, so those are brought back missions

#

Is there still relevant lore in those? Or do the yellow missions matter most

digital mural
#

Yellow missions are lore focused

#

But everything is important

strange valley
#

I must say, playing through the missions in chronological order is a great way to get in contact with new mechanics and enemies.. and it really feels like it's going somewhere which is nice. Current at R2D1 so still a lot to do haha

digital mural
#

Good luck

#

:)

#

I hope R4 and R5 goes good for you

strange valley
#

oh boy...

#

looking forward to it

#

playing it completely blind so I have no idea what's in store for us still... didn't think there would be any new enemies tbh until we saw those black-spiked fckers lol

digital mural
#

Oh boy

#

You havent seen the worse yet

strange valley
#

hmmm....

#

well thanks for the heads-up haha

digital mural
#

Its the first E tier

#

And E tiers are a whole other level of difficulty

frozen kiln
digital mural
#

Yes

hardy grotto
#

if you give it a few attempts and it seems like too much u can move on and come back to it

#

but i think its fun to see the hardest tier of levels and see what the game has to offer

minor fractal
#

Getting to the objective is also very reasonable for inexperienced players.

#

Past that is a much harder section.

prime musk
#

r4d1 last code room
what pathing to take for terminals? room feels like rng right now
(true duos)

upper ginkgo
#

two terminals on the right side of the map, so it's a good chance it might be there

prime musk
#

so you go over catwalk and take staircase at the very back?

upper ginkgo
#

yeah

civic wave
#

yea i do the same, top right then mid right

prime musk
#

i see that's what i have been doing

civic wave
#

sometimes i go to the back of the room, sometimes i go up top immediately at the front of the room

upper ginkgo
#

but rng dictates if that path is gonna be a cinch or not

#

usually it's not too bad

#

and ideally you shouldn't kill unless it's necessary or you're sure you can not long range aggro

civic wave
#

there is still the possibility of pulling the room if you're confident enough

prime musk
#

we have survived (and inputted code in time) after triggering but it's rough

civic wave
#

holding bridge I'm guessing?

prime musk
#

for reactor waves?

civic wave
#

ya

prime musk
#

we're holding corridor that opens after 1st wave

#

we haven't struggled with time at all

civic wave
#

basically the same thing

prime musk
#

but alright my pathing is good enough in the room then i just got to stop being bad

upper ginkgo
#

yeah if you're not having issues holding the wave, then you can follow your current strat

#

i prefer holding in reactor just because i dislike the extremely late waves

#

reactor spawning rules get messed up if you hold elsewhere from reactor

prime musk
prime musk
civic wave
#

it does depending on where you hold

#

I mean even holding bridge on second wave can lose you a minute of code search time which is kinda significant with what you have to go through

prime musk
#

obv but where would you reasonably hold where it would be a problem

prime musk
#

i think time is way more lenient in r4d1 than other reactor missions

upper ginkgo
#

oh if you're not having too much problems, then gl on the duo runs

prime musk
#

we have gotten past the last code a few times the problem is we skill issue on secondary

#

having more consistency on main would be nice for secondary attempts but we'll get it soon™️

silent delta
#

im bad at getting them to not scream when i just have sledge

upper ginkgo
prime musk
#

the reason im saying skill issue is because we have hel shotgun and hel auto sentry

#

we have no excuse to die to double mom, ever

upper ginkgo
#

oh lol

tardy ingot
ocean spindle
#

stagger her of course

prime musk
#

hel shotgun is good against babies but when 2 moms in different spots spawn hel auto sentry is pretty good at cleaning up whatever hel shotgun doesn't get/when i run out of hel shotgun and have to reload

#

maybe it's just bad shooting with the hel shotgun on my part?

past mesa
prime musk
#

on r4d1 duo?

past mesa
#

ye

#

100%

prime musk
#

never considered it because it's kinda sucky into chargers

past mesa
#

you kill two chargers per shot and r4d1 has infinite ammo

prime musk
#

this is true

#

it's obviously going to perform worse than hel rifle during waves but maybe i can get away with it

past mesa
#

i think you can get away with it

prime musk
#

ill try it tomorrow then

#

ray says pump carries here to

#

he may be correct

minor fractal
#

Pump solos a mom

#

I took it for the streamathon.

prime musk
#

im not sure i'd rather have pump

minor fractal
#

And rushed upstairs mom.

prime musk
#

it's like, not consistent against chargers

minor fractal
#

HEL Revo is, and pump has really good chip + stagger.

prime musk
minor fractal
#

Moms are always in same spots in those zones, yes.

prime musk
#

we've been pulling the rooms so maybe that's why we're dying

#

(i have no idea where they spawn)

minor fractal
#

They auto-pull

prime musk
#

i mean yeah but what i mean is

minor fractal
#

In duo it's a little scarier to run it, yeah.

#

Because giants

prime musk
#

tbf with scatter i should not be afraid of running into giants

minor fractal
#

HEL Shotgun Scatter is very cancer on waves, though.

prime musk
minor fractal
#

And you need to solo birth

soft crater
prime musk
prime musk
minor fractal
#

If you are rushing top mom, she will always birth

#

you need to kill birth when you get there, and then DPS her

prime musk
#

not viable to double scatter and then kill what managed to spawn?

red flax
#

Anyone know why jumping while you fail a hack doesn't make a noise after you fail a hack?

prime musk
#

ideally wouldn't 1 player be carrying scatter and nuking while p2 carries hel shotty to kill spawns anyways

prime musk
red flax
#

It doesn't happen if I don't jump

prime musk
#

i think it's tied to the failing hack animation on the lock itself

#

im blind nvm what i have written

red flax
#

I can spam fail a hack and it makes noise every time unless I jump

soft crater
#

Test it next to a giant :P

red flax
#

Well the first failed hack would wake it up regardless I think

minor fractal
prime musk
#

ok

#

question about pen

#

can pen hit multiple tumors on same enemy

minor fractal
#

No.

#

One hit per enemy.

prime musk
#

unfortunate

pseudo coyote
# tiny wyvern Can I ask what the cooldown is

tbh no idea, I just know some noises have cooldowns and just assume it's the same for the hacklock based on the described behaviour

there's a high chance I'm wrong since I have not checked in a while...

tiny wyvern
#

Maybe modded will know

pseudo coyote
#

my best guess from this point is he was client and his noise packets somehow got missed on host side, whether it be bad connection or desync 🤷

tiny wyvern
#

I think him jumping is just covering up the sound of the fail

pseudo coyote
tiny wyvern
#

huh any other ideas on why this happened then

pseudo coyote
#

regardless the jump has nothing to do with it - unless he's running mods that somehow make it linked lmao

tiny wyvern
#

and either way missing the hack hard alerts things

#

while jumping soft alerts them right?

#

I know landing is a soft alert

pseudo coyote
#

ye that's right

#

tho hack lock is only hard alert within some radius and soft alert outside

#

the exact mechanism is as follows:

  • you start a hack lock which has some ID
  • u fail the hack, the status is updated via that ID (sent from client to host)
  • host receives the update, checks the ID exists and then plays sound to wake enemies

either the ID no longer existed on host or the packet was dropped by the network for the noise to not go off.

I hvnt looked at the code for how the IDs are provided but it's entirely possible that if the hacklock is unlocked by another player while 1 is still hacking it, after removal the noise can no longer be made since the lock obv no longer exists for host.

this is conjecture since I cba to read more code rn lol

#

how much damage to stagger a snatcher?

tardy ingot
#

40

#

only when its in attacking phase tho

ocean spindle
#

yeah

#

i was just

#

thinking funny ideas

grizzled patrol
ocean spindle
#

it would like crash ur game probs somehow

#

if u could force the foam into the snatcher

#

i think when u do it already like breaks the enemy kdmsk

grizzled patrol
#

Very stable Code indeed

ocean spindle
#

i mean

#

that's what happens when h force it

#

it's not really the fault of the code it's ur fault for forcing a mechanic onto an enemy that doesn't allow it kdmskd

grizzled patrol
#

Last Time i checked it does have foam health, its Just absurdly high

ocean spindle
#

i mean could be but then still it's non feasible really

#

unless u dupe foam nades infinitely or something

grizzled patrol
#

Not with that Attitude peepogrin

#

Actually, now i want to calculate how much foam you can get If you drain the entirety of R7D2

#

Prob still Not enough

past mesa
#

It isn’t I think foam snatcher just didn’t work to well. It can attack you through foam which isn’t amazing

arctic marten
#

pouncer foam health is 1000000 last i checked

silent delta
#

doesnt doggo also ignore stagger multis

#

because fuck you

silent delta
tardy ingot
silent delta
#

because we needed another reason to bring scatter

grizzled patrol
#

It applies only to melee tho, so If you have a high stagger weapon you can still do it pretty easy

silent delta
#

wait what

#

gun stagger multi still applies?

grizzled patrol
#

Yes. You Just cannot bat it

silent delta
#

well that would have been nice to know at some point in the last 700 hours

silent delta
ocean spindle
#

wasn't it instead that the snatcher got staggered with a certain amount of dmg

#

not cause of the stagger?

#

i'm pretty sure they just ignore stagger regardless of the weapon

#

it's just dealing 40 dmg
