Yeah, range is about as far as you can comfortably aim with the pistol
if closer than like ~29m
(for reference it kill strikers with bodyshot from ~27m)
it doesn't kill body or I'm misunderstanding
you are misunderstanding
am saying based on the logic that high cal is close to killing on bodyshot, killing on crit is easy
it's not really close but fine
isnt it 30 damage out of 37?
back and head work ye
42*
yes
where's the 42 coming from
scout hp
oh theyre on abt scouts not nightmare strikers
yeee
been a long time since ive seen anyone not just call them scouts
everyone talks about their tentacles smh
ye fair
Ofc they do what else do u expect
Imean. I figured it would be scouts given nightmares basically don't have a head. (Technically they do but meh. Funny shrunken headass)
does that mini head have a multiplier
Probably not and even if it did you ain't hitting it
Even then. It's probably counted as body dmg like chargers
Iirc
Nightmare Giant has a small one on top
.
At least from what can be seen with the hitbox models mod
nightmare scout does as well
While funny. I didn't manage to hit the N.Giant head :P
Well at least they aren't cursed looking like flyer hitboxes
30 out of 37 isn't close, and scouts have 42 HP.
If it were close, you'd expect one-shot on slight back damage, which HCP doesn't have
Sniper is actually close, and should one-shot from basically the side (1.05x multi).
with crits it is
It's not close on bodyshot, which is what you said.
i think you missed my point
i said that as in you can easily get the kill if you get crit
cuz more than enough damage
Your justification for your "point," that HCP overkills on HS, isn't very good justification of that fact
since HCP isn't very close to killing on body
what is close then?
30/37 is 81% of the way there, so really you'd need a ~25% increase (specifically 23.3(recurring) %) damage increase for the kill
can you sniper bodyshot and quickdraw knife to kill a scout
maybe if you roll 0.5? no idea
if we'd tlak about boosters yes that is al ot
couldn't do it must've been a bad roll
To be clear, you need a 1.4x multi to one-tap scout w/ HCP.
Ah right yea for scout
which isn't too hard to get, but it's a lot tighter than 1.05x, and it certainly requires some effort to obtain.
whoops, i am not a smart lady
+7 damage is just short of a DMR shot, +12 is just short of a precision rifle shot, if that reference is any helpful, so the base damage increase you'd need disregarding any multipliers would be akin to you firing from a 2nd gun
so true
whatever it's a stupid question to begin with
will i have any issues with not unlocking achievements/cosmetics if i install QoL/bugfix mods?
no
no
Is there any weapon that I shouldn’t use? Or are they all pretty balanced compared to each other?
Assault rifle, bullpup, burst rifle, short rifle and slug shotgun are the only ones i don't recommend
They are just
Straight up bad
Short rifle
Sniper is fine against big guys
BUT
It got nerfed hard
It still is fine but theres better options
This gun is so bad
Low damage and really low stagger
No reason to bring it when everything else is better
(especially since its the special slot)
Those are really decent picks
just wanted to make sure I wasn’t throwing lmao
You can make the bad weapon works
if a team still struggling killing wave sniper is bad.but if a team good at killing wave and make playspace sniper gonna make the game easier
People cleared the hardest level with worst guns in the game
And honestly
Run whatever works with you
True true
No more Pablo pfp?
Sadge :(
We got a divorce
WHAT
Now I have to find someone else to babysit him now
Fuck
Burst Rifle is better than literally any auto
Than doesnt really mean much anyways
Everything is better than Autos
And i didnt mentioned Autos specifically :b
but you did mention burst rifle specifically
damn did not realize you were a baiter, mb
Burst rifle???
Yeah
The one that goes brrrbrrrbrr and not brrrrrrrrrrr
burst rifle is decent
I have no one
Even new people
Use that gun
Absolute no one goes and says
"Oh yeah burst rifle time"
I use it to punch things that are too far away for me to use melee
It's pretty good at doing that
Punch?
Ye
id rather use burst pistol
doesn't burst pis have less ammo
Hey, is gtfo peer to peer?
Yes
It shoots faster so its easier to spam
Yes again
Oh does it use steam routing?
@digital mural burst rifle is unironically good
Not the good of „broken“ or good of carbine/dmr etc
But its very much a good main
No
Yeah
Steam to connect to other people
Playfab to save progress
If it's good
Then why i don't see people using it
I was about to say not even newbies touch that weapon (they prefer bullpup)
pickrate is a shit metric
Vets rarely use burst rifle cuz they pick the actual strong stuff
Beginners/meh take the shit high pickrate stuff
Burst rifle feels awful to shoot and the damage is mid and it's only decent against smalls
At least it has range
But thats about it
so it also uses steam feature to route my data to hide my ip?
I am asking because usually when I open the overlay it says that it is routing. (in other p2p games like drg) but not this game.
Yeah just as a precaution tho
Dw
Oh yeah i see this often in some games
But i don't think it's something to worry about too much
Just no
Its a slightly worse carbine with more range
And carbine isnt rly known for being bad lol
I definitely suck with burst rifle if its almost the same as carbine
I think its time to become a burst rifle main
BC is going to carry me
mhm
yeah but not on gtfo lol
im sorry but burst rifle its literally carbine but u can oneshot a striker as client
so idk what ur going on about lmao
it's a fine gun, but feels a tad sluggish with the reload
good range, good damage, good sight, good gun
mostly a problem of unfamiliarity probably
gun has a big body it is automatically amazing omg
i was the only burst rifle player in any of my runs
sad
Better than being the guy with a machine pistol and burst cannon
that would also be me
whats the best gun to use in a run
just a normal run of like
in general type beat
uhhhh probably sawed off and hel rifle, hel gun or scatter
alright thanksies
slug shotgun and short rifle
I'm pretty sure you cant get someone's IP even with massive amount of trickery
What I KNOW is that there was a way of getting your STEAM ID but steam never really hides that.
high cal and smg
With gtfo or with steam routing?
It's not that easy, for one, when steam crashes badly enough, the game boots lobby back to rundown menu.
You also dont really connect directly to a client anyway, it goes through nodes
Try to get like a site close to you and tracert it
it's not going to be a single jump but way way more
I'm sure there's people who are way more qualified than me in this server to talk about it but AFAIK it's not possible
How do I take out scouts without setting them off and waking up the room
Heatshot with certain loud weapons will wake room, but kills scout
Full charge hammer and spear melee to head kills scout
Full charge bat and knife melee to back of the head kills scout
precision rifle, choke mod/ special shotgun, hel rifle... we can go on
Awesome thank you!
Can giants be taken down with a full charge of the hammer to the back of the head
No
The strat is to break the head by hitting it with full charge melees and then break limbs
That will usually stagger them, making sure they don't hit you while you try to stealth them
Got it
If you have drugs!
Yellow Syringes. 3x melee dmg for 1 hit within 8 seconds
how many different end screens are there again?
og, normal, r8e1, r8c2, r8e2 ?
r8a2 as well
how is r8a2 different?
it says "expedition completed" instead of "expedition survived"
for secondary
i never noticed it
Team was just built different. They ain't struggle to survive. Kso objective stack completed.
how does key distribution works?
i tried several times to parse key spawning area with log
but i still dont understand
parse?
are you trying to figure out how it decides where to spawn keys?
for that id ask, why 
i have some basic understanding due to cell spawns. But It probably wont help much for that
actually which area like a b c
oh just where stuff spawns?
theres maps for all of that and a guide with explanations on it
for figuring stuff out for keymaps, using a DLL/file to spawn all boxes and output text correlating each box to an ri: number
ri:
is what you search to get a number for a key spawn
there is also spawn weight, which affects distribution a bit but i'm not sure that's what you're after
yeah but to get a actual area like a b c and location you need specific location data like json
o.O ?
like warden mapper
wardenmapper just takes known things from logs and puts neat little markers onto screenshots of maps
yeah that's it i also making other mapper
we know ri: 47 in r1a1 is the first key in G for zone 50
and we know area: 15 is hsu in B
that would then get projected onto the screenshot
its just a unique thing for whatever you wanna find
yes but you need r1a1.json to get area
my goal is find area without json. that's why i was asking
uuh im a bit confused
why do you need an r1a1.json
the game itself doesnt give a top down info for where a key spawns in the level
in the logs
what exactly do you want to do?
cuz the area G is in the json
without json it doesn't know the area
trynna get specific area with only log
You could probs ask a plugin dev whether or not that's possible
Around modding general
why do you need the specific area?
for key the area doesnt matter, just the specific locker (as frosty has said)
it shows the weight of each area in the logs
ya
and it shows the random value from 0-1 to determine which to pick
that is all you need to know the area
if A is a weight of 1 and B is a weight of 1
then < 0.5 is A
rest is B
i was thinking a while, that's right haha
i tried it but sometimes right and sometimes wrong
gonna check it again
is the game possible/fun co op?
2 players can still be quite fun yes
u can do 2 players too
the difficulty doesnt scale tho, so (i presume you are taking bots for at least a while) it will become a good bit more difficult on harder levels
you can work around this by learning more about the game
this game is pretty knowledge heavy for many levels
as in you can beat them with pretty meh mechanics
how punishing are the respawn mechanics?
but in return you can also go through with less knowledge (if at least basic) if you are insane at the game
GTFO doesnt have checkpoints until R6
respawn?
That means until then if You die You DIE
if you as a player die then you can get revived tho
unlimited times
its just if the whole team dies
and there's bots to fill the other 2 spots but they suck?
Bots are decent in early levels
ah
but bots will perform better than most beginners for a good bit if you let them
again, knowledge of what to do will win levels quite easily
how much levels are there?
Bots are good at 2 thing than any other players
Biotracker
Stealth
84
well
83 + tutorial
theres optional objectives for a lot of levels tho, with some being entirely different ways to play the level
easily hundreds of hours that you will need to go through to beat it all
depends on your pace and skill level
For new people anywhere from 30 mins to 1 hour 30 mins
Some levels 2
for new people
generally yes
dang
a good example for pace mattering is the first level tho
beginners often take 45-60 min on it
well would yall reccomend it for 2 players?
r1-r5 yes
.t lfg
when its a 5-10 min level, when crouching
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 / #lfg-middle-east.
If you are unsure of how to create or join a lobby, please see the instructions here: #how-to-matchmake.
if you like the idea of the game, yes
but you can also always try and find other beginners on here
or grab more friends for it
I recommend trying the game first with a full team if possible
Just to start getting used to it
GTFO needs a lot of dedication, time and learning
So good luck
they certainly sound alike
i cant come with anything close to gtfo tbh
they are pretty different
Welp
They are not alike in any way really
hard levels, lots of gunplay
they also play very different
the stealth is just not the same, with it being a pretty appearant thing in gtfo to play around
GTFO is a mix of stealth and action
is the stealth hard? i kinda hate stealth
If You make it hard yes
You don't have to crouch all the time
Or move slowly
nice
People that complain about stealth make it hard for themselves
(i Say this because i have seen ton of people saying GTFO is a crouch simulator)
0 xd
I have my team
damn
so 4 players?
Ye
0-3 lol
or if actually different people, like a dozen or so
eh
bruh
But it's really fun
its a preference thing in the end for that
i heard that dl 1 > dl 2
yes
Yes
DL2 isnt a bad game
It didnt deliver what they promissed :b
But overall
Fun game
for me it got boring rly fast ( dl 1 )
getting into the main character is what I enjoy for stuff like that
🤨
wait, is it true the game is shuttiung down soon??
i read on steam articles the devs abandoned it and its gonna shut down
no lol
tho id love to see that linked xD
the devs have stopped updating the game (its basically finished, with some glitches obviously) and theyll do patches for when major stuff breaks
they are working on another game currently
oh thats neat
shutting down? nah its still running. just not being updated anymore
Bruh
thats an article from when we didnt even have R8 yet 
as in there were still like 3 of the currently available campaigns not even in the game
oh yea
ingame matchmaking is pretty iffy tho (for multiple reasons)
you either host lobbies with friends
or host/find lobbies on this server via the lfg system on here
1 1/2 year old
i think it was written during the times gtfo had problems with the playfab servers. it was their fault tho, not 10C
that does fit as that happened while I was in canada (which fits with the time frame)
Hi, its been a year since I last spoke here, I've encountered a very very teeny tiny problem though, a work related accident involving a certain very fancy welder has left me with head trauma and permeant hearing loss in my right ear! Any mods or anything to add like indicators to where sounds are coming from?
i dont believe so, but deaf gtfo gaming still is possible as demonstrated by a player called wyvernking, u could ask him about some strats and stuff :]
he be real cool at the gaming
Oh sick!
There is a bio indicator mod that tells you when enemies are in the second phase
but realistically it is just a take bio tracker angle
bio gives you a lot of info
Which is sometimes better than sound
Sometimes worse
Not a legend here but I’ll take it
No worries! I can help ya out with some methods of soundless madness XD
Most of the strata usually involve being the Bio-guy
Lmao that makes alot of sense
I mean, being deaf means you need as much visual info as possible. (Shadows are a real PITA tho)
I usually take a thermal wpn for it unless someone can be the “follow this guy” during shadow parts
I do have a soundless guide on steam
It’s still under the same name as I have here but look up Soundless as the text and it should be there with a no-sound icon
It kinda details my line of thought process in a robotic way
Deaf strat bring pdw
Used to be viable when R7 first came
Right now, it’s whenever if you feel like it
Thank you I will take a looksie
It would be cool if there was some sort of mod to visualize sounds
Like that one fuckin game uhhhh
Lurkers?
Idk
It makes sense but since I’m able to finish the entire game without sounds, I’m not really interested in sound visualization mod
Takes away a lot of the hard work and effort
Were you a codehunter or a defender on r4e1 secondary
I don’t remember
Oh no I'm not meaning to discredit you, what you've done is fuckin insane lmao
I'm just saying it would be interesting in addition to soundless madman
Well, a sound visualization was interesting back then but post completion: not so much but could be ideal for soundless noobies
and it would enable slightly less mad soundless people to do still experience stuff yeah
I ran all the tools while soundless (takes awhile without bio tho)
What I’m trying to say is: if you’re running soundless, BE PREPARED to treat your own hearing as your own liability
Maybe something simple
Like when a shadow is clicking there's some sort of visual effect
To make shadow stealthing slightly less hell
Well the other guy still has one ear I think
There is a mod on bio for this
It's not going to be THAT bad
Shadows are already hell, regardless if mods are involved. If they’re clumped together. It’s nearly impossible
to show clicking
I’m referring Full soundless
There is a bio mod that shows clicking as a visual indicator
There was a level that waking up a shadow room is a very bad idea and is a run ended
Betterbio
Which one?
I forgot which one. It’s been awhile for me too
R8e2 is probs the only one
ngl
But you making it there
You have another buddy who can do the stealth
Or you can do scream cancel tech
It wasn’t R8
R5D1
Yeah you can shoot this up
Rlly?
The last zone in r4e1 secondary?
you shopt it up
Everytime
Stealthing it is troll
I meant more if you get shit rng and multiple scouts spawn in the first room
I had a run where all four spawned in the first room
R4e1 secondary last room
Lmao shadows are bad enough when you can hear
Rn only has 2 scouts
Doesn't the zone for the sixth code have like 3 rooms and four scout?
Idk I have literally never codehunted all I've heard is what my overstressed and tilted teammates told me
Double bio level
Ah
Most of my crew i run bio so often I'm the best at it
And one of em just tosses it on so they can ping scouts/the Fuck You Blood Door
I am the 3rd worst player on my team so I get the bio
We did have a run that made it to the sixth code, reactor waves were under control, everything was fine
My friend turns around to go put in code six
And then suddenly goes down
Jumpscare shadow giant from the codehunters no one noticed
LOL
Run died :(
But actually
Hm?
Almost every room
In the game with shadows
Can just be shot
Like you ping scout
Shoot scout
Then kill room
Silent shoot the scout 😇
No shit. But it’s the fact that shadows provide as little to no visual support that makes it rough. Thermal works but ONLY if it’s isolated
I’m a room full of shadows, it’s both pray, carefulness, and pray again
Wdym only if isolated
If it’s clustered and blocks your path, while others are around you
And wakeups are not ideal
oh just force the correct wake ups
And give it a chance to wake up the room? No
forcing the correct wake ups
Is the safest stealth
in the game
Double kills are just safer than single kills because of long range
And controlled long range is the safest method in group setting above 3
Because it controls the only issue of single kills
Not if it Bs long Afro
No
You can fully control
Long range
With these two methods
Assuming you don’t ever hit an enemy twice
Back now. Was driving home
I won’t deny that. But wouldn’t using spears make that far safer to make that happen?
If you hit head/back every time
Yeah
but hammer has sprint which makes it better for saving broken stealth
Spear has sprint now tho? (Slower yes)
spear sprint should mostly be considered worthless
Gotcha
The most useful part about it is alerting scouts
so they stop moving
Or small extensions of the swing
Spears makes scouts easy unless it’s Chargers
The room that I had the most issues beforeR7 was d3 overload
Trying to snipe that shadow scout was a 50/50
r6d3 overload?
Yea
We had this discussion
There is a line up with sniper
to make it more consistent
3rd line on the bio ping
then small adjustment due to height
Yea. But that’s why I say it’s still 50/50 cuz based on where shadows are in that room, you can either try it and end up hitting the shoulder that’s blocking that line of shot
HEL Rifle moment
I was referring Pre-R7 where Hel Rifle wasnt in OG R6
Can the first level of the game have cfoam?
Or is it unable to spawn
Nvm I answered my own question
it can have foam nades in the res zone
not sure if before
I know for a fact that tripmines can spawn in the starting zone
starting zone can spawn c-foam
Yeah, I just got 2 trip mines but no foam
I’ve gotten 2 foam on one attempt
Died to a scout
Two scouts spawned at the same time
It's always two there
They either are in different or the same room
If you're doing it 100% solo no bots you can cheese the clear by just stealthing shit, bringing foam and luckshit 2 tripmines, 1 for each alarm.
Btw, is the hell gun any good? I’m running spear, smg, and hell gun right now
I’m doing complete solo
It's fine if you're good at aiming
Oh and I’m using the shoty turret
HEL Rifle's more lenient since you can bodyshot most shit
That depends a lot on where you place it and the situation, I'd just take burst sentry tbh
Just so you know, if you're doing this because you think it's easier without the bots, it's not.
Yeah, but I just watched markiplier and so now I wanna try
The extent of my knowledge is the first 7 episodes + both solo episodes of mark
So far the furthest I’ve gotten was the alarm of the key door
Died to that
I wouldnt take what markiplier does/uses as them being good
That was OG
And also they didnt have gun knowledge
Oh, I didn’t take what guns I thought were good from them, I looked up “what are the best guns in gtfo”
By the knowledge from mark, I meant the stealth knowledge
And weak point knowledge
ah nice, what'd you find?
Smg was the main one
Said it was probably the best gun in the game
The Van Auken LTC 5 SMG
it's the gamerant article isn't it
i'm so sorry, but that article is complete garbage, you may ask players in the community what the best guns are - there's a consensus, or you may read one of rayalot72s reddit posts, or a podcast style video by d4rkeva which is a tad outdated but still relevant
its not a bad gun by any means but definitely on the weaker side
What would you recommend as a main gun?
Sawed off
I had forgotten about it until now ngl
Depends on a mix of comfort and strength
Sawed off is indisputably the best
Hel autopistol if you want an automatic gun (or perhaps pdw for the utility of thermal scope)
Hel revo and dmr if you like single shot weapons
Hel shotgun is probably a bit too niche
What is good for solo running?
Sawed off
Ok, I’ll give the sawed off a try once I die (cause I’m definitely gonna die again, this run isn’t going well at all)
Gl
Thank you
i guess carbine is also a thing, easy to use and relatively strong for the basic weapons (by which i mean the "standard" guns that have no special quirks or features)
I’ll give the sawed off a try, and then if I die again, which is likely, I’ll try the carbine
Recommending hel auto pp is insane ngl
Is it not good?
Ah
and it’s also not good
That’s fun
mhm guess so, remember hearing "best automatic weapon" a bunch which would be the explanation
Gotta love 4 dudes sitting together in a scout room
Worth mentioning, while good guns are generally going to be good in most situations (this is generally what makes them good), there is still some amount of picking the right weapon for the situation
Bonk scout and come back for them
Probably should’ve done that
Died already tho
Is shoty turret good or should I swap it?
Oh
For R1A1, burst is generally going to be your best option
Guess I shouldn’t have trusted mark
Mark is a capital G Gamer, but he also played ages ago and was very insular, by which I mean he developed his own opinions about what was good which don't necessarily reflect what the community settled on being good
Ok, so burst is best?
For R1A1, yeah
for what you're doing, yes
And is it a good idea to place turret outside door facing across it and then foam the door
If you just want the clear though, you can also permafoam the alarm and rely in finding a consumable tripmine
No
Ok so what do, it has gotten me through the first alarm pretty well
Enemies will stack up on the door faster than turret kills them, and then when it breaks you'll have to fight 10 at once and die
Place turret inside with you, leave door open, you can close door if there is a terrible scan that is by the door
But still this though
Ok
So what do I do for the key door afterwards though?
Without a turret I think I’d die pretty quick
I don’t think I’d have enough foam for 2 doors
(You also don't need to permafoam the first alarm, it is doable with just shooting, you can even ground foam to make it easier)
You bring the foam launcher
And you use the tool refill packerinos
So just kinda pray I get trip mines with that strat?
Ye
Trying with sentry is very cool, and you'll learn a lot more trying to hold with sentry
But it is a lot harder (I remember needing many many hours to be good enough to do it)
And you don't want to bash your head against the wall
Yeah, I’ll probably actually play with friends once they actually have the game and then all my problems will be both solved and multiplied
If you've beaten the first alarm true solo then you'll be big chilling with team mates
Yeah, but brain cells go down when playing with friends, so that’s the problem multiplier
The more I use glow sticks the more I like them
Glowsticks are unironically very good in solo
make glowticks permanent, not 1-2 mins 
i dont think they need to be permanent
but they def need to last an actual amount of time for their value
I kinda agree even thought I like HEL autopistol
It's certanly not a weapon I'd use soloing, especially
On the other hand I also wouldn't recommend sawn off either
Mainly because of all the newbies I've seen picking it and using it like shit
It's just NOT as intuitive as Carbine and that's why Carbine's my go to whenever someone asks me for a good/reliable main
Yeah but consider missing
I mean that can happen with any gun
If you’re expecting a beginner to be good with any gun it’s a little weird
If you miss with sawn off that's 25% of the mag down the drain
with a really fast reload
with sawed off you can still get partial hits and stagger
so in some ways it's more forgiving
It’s just a massively overtuned gun that you can’t really go all that wrong with
but carbine isn’t a horrible recommendation either
of course missing will hurt a bit more than a gun with more in the magazine, but that's just how it goes
misses should be considered by how much they threaten your stability than how big of a % of a magazine 1 bullet is
Dont really know if this will make sense but my take is as such: if you dont know most or nearly anything about the game, you'd be better off with Carbine.
I mean you don’t really have to know about stagger to get use out of it
It's not really an hill I want to fight on since I agree using sawn off decently ain't rocket science
yes because you won't know about engagement ranges or avoiding attacks which will likely make a gun that lets you blanket an area with bullets more effective than a shotgun
you’ll either shoot from too far and get stagger or you’ll whiff half the pellets and probably still stagger
Coward smh
Oh come on!
it’s not really a gtfo discussion if we don’t argue for hours and hours
come down london right now mate ill fight yous instead
Both weapons are just very simple to use
gerz wins every time btw
Which is good for beginners
I think a beginner would be better at using Goat, but once you understand how to dodge then Gerz gets a lot better
I think Sawed Off beats Carbine in a fight as well
How hard does sawed off beat carbine by
is it worth going to watch or is it over instantly
Sawed off kills on the first shot, dumps the last 3 for fun, then tbags the corpse
sounds about right
I loved reading the first sentence of this
Cuz it was my exact thought when i read smg xD
gamerrant my beloved r5a1 top 10 hardest levels of the game
What do the tiers of matchmaking mean? Is A or E the lowest?
A is the easiest, E is the hardest, u can check by clickin a rundown how they go top to bottom
Oh
mm is still not recommended tho
It refers to the tier of level - but you are advised not to use matchmaking
much better to use the LFG channels here
I used matchmaking and assumed E was the lowest, makes more sense why I got put in a team of people who didn’t stealth at all and just ran through
the funny
can you even matchmake for E tiers when you are new
?
Yep
matchmaking has 0 safeguards
my first mm was r2e1 💀
Mine was (just now) R7E1 I think

Thoughts on the Hel Auto Sentry?
Niche
Not bad not good
It's not something i would always carry
Burst and sniper are just better in every single way
Bad
Auto sentry isnt made to kill hordes
Trying to solo the first level with no bots
its either pretty bad or situationally goated
its the only sentry that does extra dmg if it hits enemies from behind (this is a bug, sentries arent supposed to do this) + pen
so if its placed in a super tight choke it can do well at killing. its just neither efficient nor otherwise consistent, so burst it is
Ok
clearing? no
is sitting in one of the dumptrucks considered cheese?
need an opinion
like sitting in the back
ummm which trucks? like the one in r1c1?
i mean not really, tongues can still get to u from what i remember and shooters are the exact same
plus theres like so few of them that are useful, the one in r1c1 is just to see enemies better
but i dont remmeber if u can get hit on one
ok
depends
its a cheese spot if tongues cant get you
but it also depends on if ur sitting there to avoid tongues
if ur just sat there to get height and shoot enemies from a distance then its probably fine
sure
Who wins?

Gerz
It kinda depends, I usually get down from there if enemies get really close, but the elevation helps kill shit with PR and DMR from that height
If you stand on that just some further back you cant get tongued by strikers
Giants I think can still hit you
And unless you're shooterbugged so can shooters and hybrids
i can't believe that this was 50/50 if you disregard my vote for gerz, she'd kick my ass every time idk why people expect me to be able to do anything
The E-tier records are calling
that reads ominously
not sure whether an inside joke, trying to recruit me for speeds, or input on why gerz would beat the shit outta me
D - all of the above
Is there a list explaining utility and usefulness of all of the weapons? That's up to date?
I've been pretty stuck with the Shellings, both. Fantastic guns, the pistol and heavy pistol.
Tru has a spreadsheet
Does that count?
The numbers don't really mean a whole lot to me.
Something like "Gun good at crowds bad at giants" and "Good at Giants bad at Crowds" type deal.
Both pistols are fine enough in practice, when you get overrun it hurts slightly
The burst pistol can work fine in crowds, machine and hel pis both do well against the crowds
And I was hoping if there was a defining list for.. everything.
Crowd control: shotguns, hel pistol, Hel shotgun, hel revo, carbine, MGs, hel gun
Giants/bosses: burst cannon, scattergun, sniper, hel rifle, Hel gun, sawed off
Yeah that one you shared is fine
Yeah, yeah. Like that steam link you posted.
Thank ya.
Question. Folk don't like the bat?
I really do not find myself liking the hammer.
The only good thing about it is the stagger
And being able to break locks in one hit
And thats about it
You can use it for quick clear like the knife if you really want to
(Im talking about the bat)
We don't talk about spear
(You need either that or spear for hybrid stealth effectively)
Why not Spear?
Spear sucks
and the speed
and the animation :D
So against crowds you're a sitting duck
Can't run
Mediocre damage
Long charge time
I keep hearing about Spear being a great thing..
No
Waiting to get triple licked to death
u in the wrong circles :[
ermm ermm
the stinger is cool
design
wise
Aside from sniper and short rifle
This game has very little "bad" weapons
Hell, the pistol can stick around until late R8 before you need to take something else
Whoever designed the spear clearly knew what he was doing
pistol my beloved
My experience with the Spear is that it's been fantastic for safe giant clear.
Yes
But that's... about it.
Then you get swarmed and die
thats fair but with people u dont rlly need it either
You can do the same with hammer
Does C-foam do anything to enemies while its layed on the ground? Like does it slow them or stop them?
freezes them
Yeah
Sorta, the blood freezes them
Hammer's not as safe for quiet Giant clear.
depending on the enemy it might do for less or more time
gotta full charge and hit a limb, same as spear
but with a team it gets easier
u dont rlly need to go by soloing bigs
Yeah, but it's not that bad
compared to knife stealth ginat
unless achievement
Knife vs Giant scares me.
silly :3
[[c-foam]]
I love Knife. Feels very good.
RIGHT i need to use this
Knife feels like a constant safe experience for me.
[[C-Foam]]
There that one works
it the fun weapon
but i am a bat
The sniper isn't bad, its really good to use it as a anti-tank weapon, it can one shot giants, hybrids, and scouts
Scattergun
yes but also others can do so
Burst cannon
Bat has saved the party a few times, knife has kept me alive more times than it should have being able to quick swipe with low stam costs..
Sawed off even
i mean 30 dmg u couldve said any 30 dmg
Its has a scope though, you can snipe shit while outside the room so you can lead enemies that awaken into turrets
i mean so does the hel rifle tbf ksks
Burst cannon
Hel rifle
I mean you can precision rifle
You are a bat?
Does the hel rifle instantly kill bigger enemies?
Yeah so you lose damage
No
no but it does pen
like hit through more than one
i am a bat :3
Bat.. main?
You get more use overall with Hel rifle compared to sniper
?????
bat
I like the bats.
:D
Their design is nice.
I like being able to snipe the bigger stuff and instantly have them dead, over penetrating doesnt really matter if you are aiming far above everyone elses head
Except bbcs exist
i mean it kinda does tho but well
theres also other options as burts cannon but shure
sniper is like, fine until the deeper missions
And all the other bigs in the game
Idk its just what I've been doing and its been working for me
i mean it is not that fine but
Or a mom
a
maybs in the later levels u need sumn more flexible but just have it there
in the back of ur head
Sniper works with a team that can crowd clear for you
And if you can manage the ammo balance
On normal missions without large crowds you don't suffer much, 2 rounds per mag still hurts though
That and the reload
(I mean I use revolver and machine pis as an actual build, it's inefficient as hell but it still works, sniper would too)
ah the piss
yeh
oh right it exists the other
I think sniper into normal moms is dumb tho
Shoot your 2 bullets and honestly just leave it at that
unless you need to balance hard
i figure this is partially what you are looking for
also bad dmg for its charge time aswell as uncharged
bad stagger
so can scattergun
(and for scout so can 10 weapons xD)
sniper def isnt good, considering that unless you face hybrids or ||kraken|| its just a liability most often
litteraly the slowest weapon to kill one solo 
but ye its quite decent into pmom, especially with how pmom usually shows up when you fight it (somewhat far away)
im moreso a knife guy into pmom ngl
okay scaler
nah knife unironically the pmom melee goat
scaler wouldn’t last a second in London tbh
does this mean im better than scaler
well I can’t know
Guns aren't allowed typically in the UK
wait gerz is a brit?
shocked me too tbh
I thought you were american
you dont run around with knifes all day
I heard no accent
smh beth
wtf
the americans can claim you :D
tbf i think i just compare all people to goat
honestly the only thing pointing to american is beths sometimes absolute wonky sleep schedule
and no one has an accent compared to goat
Goat is built different in accent i swear
dialect more like but
id never heard that dialect before tbf
im surprised isolated towns in australia dont speak a different language
you are from down under tbf
just go to germany (again)
theres a fuck ton of differing ways to speak german
or go to belgium and understand nothing
me when our country has like some of the most diverse dialects/languages in the entire world if not the most
I live in china
speak chinese
you live in duckburg, dont lie
Wo de zhongwen ren
bro thinks hes fooling someone
ive heard this before too
i think ive also been molded by the people i hang out with to pronounce stuff the way americans do
chewsday is erased from my vocab

it is quite tragic
I will weep for you
Shooting guide pls 🥲
soon
^
how to line goobers for hel gun shots guide
Word. Someone tell me this and I'll finally use hel revo
with hel gun* smol eepy typo
Hel gun is unviable you see. Anything other than 0.1 chargeup is unplayable
your reaction time is slower than 0.1
i mean same as for hel rifle? except also aim for head?
its supposed to be like a joke yt title
and i was gonna say hel rifle instead of hel gun but i wanted to not
why u wanna line up me smh
test pen :3
wanna see if it goes through walls testin on chairs smh
does the game have destructable chairs ( destructable anything (no) )
Padlocks
omg so true
your team8s bodies that u use as a chair at 3am
the
I've played recently with a person who had an axe as a mele weapon. If some one could tell me more about this weapon i would be grateful.
#hc-modded people there know
Its a custom weapon
You have to mess around with the files of the game and stuff
It is a essentially a hammer skin probs
Yes it is
thanx yaall
Quick question, cause I have no idea about og stuff, when was the light system reworked?
