@vital sierra so something was weird in my mind about your 20A/20C strat and how "they never spawned on you", well that's duh cuz 20A and 20C aren't 2 rooms apart, they're connected

#

why was that part of the argument in the first place

#

i mean it's a working 20 strat but it doesn't have anything to do with the 2 rooms apart rule

yes

Either shoot it Bhop or Slide

Lol if Bhop gets taken out a lot of people are screwed

Some people have just forgotten stealthing

will rundown-specific weapons still be a thing when customization/progression comes out

weary relic Jul 17, 2020, 6:42 PM

I bet so

humble marsh Jul 17, 2020, 11:27 PM

#

@restive reef ppl haven't forgotten how to stealth, b-hopping is just more efficient then crouch walking everywhere

#

red-light-green-light isn't a game people forget how to play

spark wolf Jul 17, 2020, 11:48 PM

#

for some reason people can't understand that the only benefit of it is approaching and/or sneaking past enemies faster

#

it really doesn't make things easier

#

It's already very easy to stealth just about anything

#

Any exceptions to that, such as clusters of enemies or giants are still just as much of an issue when b hopping

#

It would probably just be really annoying if it got removed for players that have gotten used to it

neon gust Jul 17, 2020, 11:55 PM

they could add a new enemy to counter it instead of fixing itWINK WINK WINK WINK

:[

spark wolf Jul 17, 2020, 11:59 PM

#

The reason people want it gone is because people make the game look like a joke when doing it

#

But you can say the exact same thing about people walking to stealth

#

Which is just what players will switch to

#

If stealth gets to the point where it becomes incredibly slow and there's no way to stealth faster

#

it would just result in people not even caring about stealth anymore

#

and then you've once again missed the point of getting people to stealth slowly

humble marsh Jul 18, 2020, 12:05 AM

restive reef Jul 18, 2020, 12:40 AM

I’ve just noticed some people are really reliant on it

#

Mainly just a joke tho

#

sleepertwerk

flat rock Jul 18, 2020, 3:20 AM

#

I wouldn't say reliant even. It's simply for the fact it's faster.

#

Once you get used to playing faster, slowing down can be a drag

minor fractal Jul 18, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

I don't even use it very much because I don't find it versatile enough.

#

I just use it to rush single enemies that have nothing in LoS.

Makes sense lol

What's the point of bhopping? I see people do it from time to time.

Isn't it just as fast as walking?

It is just a faster way to get around without making as much noise as walking from what I know

quieter and faster

#

makes about the same noise as walking but is at sprint speed

hazy oak Jul 18, 2020, 7:13 AM

Is it something that's intentional?

weary relic Jul 18, 2020, 7:13 AM

kind of

hazy oak Jul 18, 2020, 7:13 AM

#

I guess sleepers actually pay attention to the footstep sound?

weary relic Jul 18, 2020, 7:13 AM

#

It is but not to the extent it currently works

#

its supposed to be a bit louder

hazy oak Jul 18, 2020, 7:14 AM

#

It looks awful lol. Is it kind of a place holder for some other kind of mechanic?

#

Or is that really the intent?

weary relic Jul 18, 2020, 7:15 AM

#

well, its not supposed to be a full on be all mechanic

#

but a very specialized playstyle, like kiting

hazy oak Jul 18, 2020, 7:17 AM

#

I'm not sure I follow.

weary relic Jul 18, 2020, 7:18 AM

#

itll make more noise in the future, its not supposed to be the main experienced player playstyle

#

it is just so op right now for covering long distances very quickly

hazy oak Jul 18, 2020, 7:18 AM

#

I was wondering if they were gonna add some kinds of movements mechanics. I thought that might be one.

#

Like sliding.

restive reef Jul 18, 2020, 7:19 AM

#

bhop = sprint without sprint sound

weary relic Jul 18, 2020, 7:19 AM

#

hmm?

restive reef Jul 18, 2020, 7:19 AM

#

jump makes no sprint sound

#

fast move no big noise

hazy oak Jul 18, 2020, 7:19 AM

I mean, that just sounds like an exploit now. More of an oversight than intentional.

It's a nice way to dodge sleepers when in alarm or alert situations

#

or stealth with no stealth

craggy pier Jul 18, 2020, 7:20 AM

#

But not for stealthing

#

Bhopping is the quickest way to stealth as of now

hazy oak Jul 18, 2020, 7:21 AM

#

Yeah, I was wondering about that, too. What is it about jumping repeatedly that makes striker accuracy drop?

#

does anyone know the mechanics of the boss in D1?

#

upon opening the door, sometimes it stays asleep, other times it wakes up

#

we're really struggling dealing with it

#

once the fog is out it feels impossible

restive reef Jul 18, 2020, 7:32 PM

#

well ive found that you can get a good head start on it by starting to shoot and walk through the door before its fully open

#

and then just rush it and shoot the nests a lot

#

to survive fog, kite babies back past the door that let you into the double scout zone in the first place

#

mother will follow, then you can kill her

#

Id just try not to let it get to that point in the first place

#

just always rush it, dont stay back and give it time to get up and fight you

#

(im sure there are better strats that is just my experience with it)

flat rock Jul 18, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

does anyone know the mechanics of the boss in D1?
@crude stream It's always awake to my understanding so don't try to stealth it. It just activates once the door is fully open. You can use a sniper to rail into it before the door fully opens by standing on the door and shooting through the top crack of the door opening. Rush after door opens, kill babies with 1/2 people, have others shoot mother, kill her before she spawns again.

#

Always focus babies first. They do the damage to you, not the mother.

humble marsh Jul 18, 2020, 8:27 PM

full sundial Jul 18, 2020, 10:43 PM

#

if you get 8 fog reps though total uses, try to look around in the fog zone for extra resources

#

as long as you aren't trying to speed run lol

spark wolf Jul 18, 2020, 10:45 PM

#

on normal runs you can also sacrifice one person

#

to loot in the fog

flat rock Jul 18, 2020, 10:56 PM

#

Yep, it's usually easier too since fogs aren't really entirely common to come across in C1 in most cases

#

You get plenty enough disinfect to fully disinfect someone who goes to 85, so it's just a lot faster to pull rooms and clear them outside fog

Hi guys, i tried R3 solo briefly... what is with the syringes? do they all cause infection which seems to slowly damage health ? are there any other major changes?

how about body?

distant ice Jul 19, 2020, 10:23 AM

I can tell stupid what to do but I can’t fix it or play the game for them

rustic geyser Jul 19, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

@native sky 1-2 people go search for key, 2-3 people guard the entrance to it. For searching key, it usually spawn in the same places, so learn those places. And also take something that can deal with giants if something goes bad... which it will... it always does...

@rustic geyser usually we do 2 search 2 defend. ⅓-½ of the time, it'll spawn inside the search area rather than the outside and they get overwhelmed. We go in to clear and help them up. Either we succeed and make it to the big area or we down during key

rustic geyser Jul 19, 2020, 7:10 PM

#

hmm we did 2-2 as well but usually when the rooms got triggered we would re-group near the entrance or A room of the keycard zone, after that same plan again. I suggested 3 guard and 1 going in cause I think it might make the chances of enemies spawning in that area much lesser but not guaranteed about it.

flat rock Jul 19, 2020, 7:57 PM

#

I see no reason to not have everyone go into the zone to get key. The enemies are bound to spawn inside the zone and wake shit up anyways, so having the team present to assist in defense is very helpful.

#

Regardless of whether there's one person inside or not they will more often than not spawn inside the zone you opened, there are more rooms for them to spawn in within the key zone.

Just a few questions relating to scouts:

When do they go invincible?
What is the best way to hammer / rush and shotgun them?
Do they stand or crouch when shooting their feelers?

fleet fiber Jul 20, 2020, 5:33 AM

#

3 is easy. If you’re host they always go down but if you are client it varies.

swift reef Jul 20, 2020, 5:34 AM

#

when they first shoot their feelers they usually bend over shortly after

fleet fiber Jul 20, 2020, 5:34 AM

#

They don’t bend over sometimes on non-host

swift reef Jul 20, 2020, 5:35 AM

#

they go invincible when you either bump into them, hit them but not kill them, or when another sleeper alerts the room

fleet fiber Jul 20, 2020, 5:35 AM

#

They go invincible when alerted. Gunfire and running into them will instantly alert and put them into their invincible state. Hitting a feeler gives them about 1.5 seconds before the signal reaches their head so if you’re fast you can dispatch them without getting their wave

digital gate Jul 20, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

I've touched a tendril once and they went invincible

#

instantly

fleet fiber Jul 20, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

Sniper/hel rifle will dispatch them with a headshot

#

But will alert the room

#

Pump Shotgun works only up close

swift reef Jul 20, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

you can also use c-foam if you want, but it's kind of a waste

fleet fiber Jul 20, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

Yea^

swift reef Jul 20, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

hammer is usually the best option if you can be agile in the room

digital gate Jul 20, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

I tried to use the hammer but failed because of the incident with the tendrils I mentioned before

swift reef Jul 20, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

hel/sniper is good for when you can't move that much and if the scout is in a place like the fog

#

You have to hit them while they're walking around

digital gate Jul 20, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

oh

swift reef Jul 20, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

ideally you want to be standing up or have the highground

fleet fiber Jul 20, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

Clear an area of sleepers when the scout is away so you can move freely when it comes. Full charge hammer to the head is nice and is easier to hit if you are standing and they are walking towards you. Try to stay around corners so you can get closer than feelers would usually let you

fallen tide Jul 20, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

you can close the gap between you and the scout when the tendrils are out and going from cover to cover

swift reef Jul 20, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

don't go for a hammer swing if the scout has an elevated position

#

sometimes the scout can tell that you're going to hammer him and will change paths or put out its tendrils, so you want to keep some distance and be agile

craggy pier Jul 20, 2020, 5:39 AM

#

Just a few questions relating to scouts:

When do they go invincible?

What is the best way to hammer / rush and shotgun them?

Do they stand or crouch when shooting their feelers?

Is when you touch the feelers and not kill it after roughly one second, or you touched it's body (sounds weird ngl)
The best way to hammer a scout is when it's waking towards you, Shooting it with a shotgun to the head also works as long as its dead center to the head nearly point blank
They can do 1 of each, you just want to be observant when trying to hammer it as you might miss

#

Fk that's a big message

digital gate Jul 20, 2020, 5:40 AM

#

so should I charge hammer while the tendrils are retracting then run up and hammer or wait for them to fully retract?

fleet fiber Jul 20, 2020, 5:40 AM

#

Don’t sprint

craggy pier Jul 20, 2020, 5:40 AM

#

You can kill the scout even when it's feelers are out

fleet fiber Jul 20, 2020, 5:40 AM

#

While they retract is fine

swift reef Jul 20, 2020, 5:41 AM

#

it's safer to do it while it's walking, just be prepared for unexpected movement

craggy pier Jul 20, 2020, 5:41 AM

#

You can do the sprint aggravated way to kill a scout to force it's feelers out

#

Or if you shine your light long enough on it, it will also force the feelers out

digital gate Jul 20, 2020, 5:41 AM

#

do they have a cooldown on tendrils or no?

swift reef Jul 20, 2020, 5:41 AM

#

no

fleet fiber Jul 20, 2020, 5:42 AM

#

Nope. But they are periodic unless interrupted

craggy pier Jul 20, 2020, 5:42 AM

#

No, you can force the feelers out by sprinting towards it or shine your flashlight on it for long enough

#

Only sprint towards it if you know there's no other sleepers that can detect you sprinting

digital gate Jul 20, 2020, 5:45 AM

Smg and revolver

warm spruce Jul 20, 2020, 7:39 AM

The revolver is great if you land headshots
And the smg has a high ammo count

The pump shotgun is also great for specials and has a higher dmg output (per shot) i think

silent hound Jul 20, 2020, 8:54 AM

#

I just like the fast reload and spammability of the combat shotty

#

plus it seems to stun stuff to help teammates

#

I like the carbine a lot, and it seems like it might be somewhat more ammo-efficient than the SMG

distant ice Jul 20, 2020, 9:15 AM

#

Fast reload GWseremePeepoThink

#

More ammo-efficient GWseremePeepoThink

silent hound Jul 20, 2020, 12:08 PM

#

Faster than the other shotgun, I mean. I didn't like the revolver much.

#

And it really seems like the carbine does so much more damage per shot that I end up using less ammo to kill the same stuff.

distant ice Jul 20, 2020, 12:12 PM

#

it ain't faster than semi shotty either

#

and the carbine needs at least 2 bursts, automatically wasting more ammo than smg needs to kill

#

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TLAEQjYkB8eT67iz2PejtbGBe83YTjUNsf5DlAixegs/edit#gid=812794995
here's all the ff numbers

silent hound Jul 20, 2020, 12:36 PM

#

So the combat shotty is more ammo efficient, and especially if you're not getting 100% headshots the carbine and smg are close.

#

Well, more ammo efficient for what I use it for, killing big groups of melee boys.

distant ice Jul 20, 2020, 12:37 PM

yes, as for smg vs carbine, subjective so whatever

weary relic Jul 20, 2020, 6:52 PM

Ahh. So with me I kite back to spawn room after looping the scan 251 room

#

Loop around the tree exhibit things, good for cornering preventing you from taking hits

flat rock Jul 20, 2020, 7:24 PM

#

You shouldn't need to kite the first alarm at all really. 4 mines, 3 outside the room and one on door, and your guns should do the work you need them to do to get scans done in time to prevent a second wave.

elder talon Jul 20, 2020, 7:32 PM

When I did that we just set up all most of the tools we had outside the room that led into the error door then we all went in shot the scout as quick as we could and then killed the alerted chargers, I ran and pinged the hsu and then we just did the scan and ran back

can you c foam doors again once it's clawed off a first time?

Yes it's sometimes a good idea to have one guy c-foam over and over the same door to gain time

unreal epoch Jul 20, 2020, 10:07 PM

#

thanks!

swift plover Jul 20, 2020, 11:00 PM

@unreal epoch it's also good to c-foam right before the foam breaks, because it actually takes less c-foam from your launcher to reinforce a door that still has foam than it does to fully reinforce a door that has no c-foam at all

snow helm Jul 20, 2020, 11:14 PM

Hey folks, not sure if this is the right channel in the discord but have any of you had issues with scans not showing up in proper locations. We're chalking it up as a net issue on our side, but everytime one of us hosts the lobby, we keep having issues with a handful of specific doors generate scans in the wrong location. We first noticed this on the security door leading to 432 in R3A3 , but it seems to have popped up again on the door to 396 in R3D1.

Also do shooters use their own flesh as projectiles? My friend pointed out that kiting their projectiles produces an audible "woosh" sound, implying that the little balls of light are physical objects (possibly the bulbs on their heads)

@lusty bramble Shooting back of head with sniper will kill anything in one shot outside of mother

minor fractal Jul 22, 2020, 12:34 AM

#

@lusty bramble Head hitbox. The back is not a hitbox, it's based on whether or not the game considers you to be behind an enemy.

#

So try to be somewhere behind the titan.

lusty bramble Jul 22, 2020, 12:36 AM

the hitbox seems to be a bit inconsistent, would definitely have more luck client-side with game "position-recognition"

Dunno, I must be lucky then. I've never had anything I am standing behind not die in one shot

Do shooters generally have a higher detection range than strikers? I noticed that a shooter could be glowing across the room and still might get detected by a sleeper dying

faint patrol Jul 22, 2020, 1:01 AM

#

No, glowing sleepers are just significantly more alert. You have to time your swings just right and do flashlight “syncing” to guarantee a safer kill

south hound Jul 22, 2020, 1:01 AM

#

We've also seen a few of those detections that are outside radius. Chalked them up to bugs.

minor fractal Jul 22, 2020, 1:01 AM

#

Should be 12.5m for all sleepers ^^

south hound Jul 22, 2020, 1:03 AM

#

We're a two man team normally, what's frustrating is the random allocations that require 3 or 4 person tandem to successfully stealth kill. Mostly we try to leave those groups for last and stealth kill 2, then shoot the others.

gilded jolt Jul 22, 2020, 1:03 AM

You can take out 4 with two people

Kill 2 and then each take out the other 2

#

south hound Jul 22, 2020, 1:04 AM

#

when we get a room that's overloaded with 3-4 sleeper groups we try to kite them to a choke point with a turrent

gilded jolt Jul 22, 2020, 1:05 AM

#

Eh in a situation like that just try to kill as many as you can before alerting

south hound Jul 22, 2020, 1:05 AM

#

but we're just getting started. I think we've played about 8-10 hours. still loving the challenge

#

agree. We've had some unfortunate spawns in R3A1 in the room that leads to 252/253 where there were 3 groups of 3, and a big striker with a sleeper next to it and no yellow syringes... sometimes the RNG gods are cruel.

@shrewd dirge I would honestly love to see someone who has perfect control over cfoam recoil and can have seizure in the exact perfect way to get every glob to have the same trajectory.

#

@shrewd dirge Please tell me that's what you mean.

weary relic Jul 23, 2020, 12:50 PM

#

Prob single/ 2 hits

#

Instead of a full charge

shrewd dirge Jul 23, 2020, 2:09 PM

#

The lower the charge the lower the spread

#

You can start charging again immediately after firing

#

So, charge to 3 clicks, then to two clicks

#

3 foam is all thats required for a scout, no foam seizure required

#

All fairly accurate at 45*

#

Worth stating, that a full charge is only really ever worth being used an a contested door

#

Or for covering floor

#

Any extra foam shot at an enemy is generally wasted

#

Interestingly enough, i think if you're frame perfect, you can foam a door with 9 foam, rather than 10

weary relic Jul 23, 2020, 2:28 PM

#

yes, you can with single hits one a single spot on door

vital sierra Jul 23, 2020, 2:29 PM

remember this

#

with 9 foam in 1 spot

shrewd dirge Jul 23, 2020, 2:29 PM

Oh, is that how that worked? Cool, wheres best to put it?

vital sierra Jul 23, 2020, 2:29 PM

#

there is a bug that make the enemies slurp up all the foam and break door instantly

#

so beware of where you shoot the foam

shrewd dirge Jul 23, 2020, 2:30 PM

vital sierra Jul 23, 2020, 2:31 PM

#

the big foam gu clip through the door

#

no

#

it's worked as intended

#

until it called a bug

#

they sucked the giant foam through the wall because it clipped through door

so if you want it to not occur

foam the top layer

Which weapons can single shot a scout in the head other than the sniper and the hel rifle?

minor fractal Jul 23, 2020, 8:17 PM

#

Almost every special weapon can kill a scout.

#

Anywhere: Sniper and burst cannon (4 chest or 2 back or 2 head or 1 occiput)
Back or head: Shotgun
Head: HEL Rifle
Occiput (head from behind): Revolver, HEL gun, and combat shotgun (4 pellets minimum)

#

Combat shotgun is finicky but possible. Get the first shot with all pellets to head and no damage dropoff, and hold down so that you fire a second shot in time.

#

As long as two pellets hit on second shot, it dies.

lavish reef Jul 23, 2020, 8:25 PM

#

Ok thanks

fair mauve Jul 23, 2020, 8:40 PM

#

I didnt know Hel gun can 1 shot scout. Never tested it

#

That's unexpected and cool

distant ice Jul 23, 2020, 8:40 PM

Occiput

fair mauve Jul 23, 2020, 8:41 PM

#

Yeah I saw. I just didnt think it could, it shows much I didnt use hel gun

distant ice Jul 23, 2020, 8:42 PM

#

I forget the multipliers on scouts but i think if a weapon can oneshot headshot a striker it can oneshot occiput a scout

#

Or maybe there's a tiny gap

minor fractal Jul 23, 2020, 8:42 PM

#

No, because scout doesn't have exactly 2x health.

#

40 striker 84 scout.

#

40 damage w/ 3x vs 42 damage w/ 3x

distant ice Jul 23, 2020, 8:43 PM

#

Right

#

I wonder if we'll see a weapon that goes in that gap

#

Some sort of heavy rifle special

minor fractal Jul 23, 2020, 8:44 PM

#

[13.4, 14) is the range.

#

DMR is very close.

distant ice Jul 23, 2020, 8:44 PM

Probably as close as any primary will be

minor fractal Jul 23, 2020, 8:49 PM

warm spruce Jul 23, 2020, 9:06 PM

warm spruce Jul 23, 2020, 9:08 PM

I shot the back of the head with a combat shotgun

#

The hit marker showed alot of pellets hit, but the twat still went blue and we had to kill a wave

minor fractal Jul 23, 2020, 9:09 PM

#

You need at least 4 pellets assuming no damage dropoff

humble marsh Jul 23, 2020, 10:42 PM

#

w the combat shotgun or the pump? because I know the scout takes 2 combat shotgun shots to the head to kill and the pump takes 1 head/body assuming all pellets hit

Combat can't OKO scout with one shell iirc

pliant herald Jul 23, 2020, 11:46 PM

vital sierra Jul 24, 2020, 12:36 AM

#

it could 1 shot scout

#

but kinda rng-ish

#

when the spread don't hit the scout

#

that's why i put 2 shots just in case

toxic fog Jul 24, 2020, 12:48 AM

#

can you kill the scout with multiple shots before it screams?

#

i had no idea

craggy pier Jul 24, 2020, 12:51 AM

#

There's a brief time window before he turns invulnerable

fluid osprey Jul 24, 2020, 1:02 AM

#

^

#

You can double tap a scout at the back of the head with the DMR to kill it

#

If you didn't kill a scout with a melee swing, theres an extremely small time lapse where someone else can come in and hit the scout with another melee hit

#

before it goes invulnerable

#

But shooting it with most weapons require you to land consistent staggering blows else it stops the stun chain and results in a scout scream

gilded jolt Jul 24, 2020, 4:10 AM

#

1 shotgun sentry, 1 burst sentry, 1 mine deployer, and 1 cfoam launcher

Thats waht I usually use if I go that level

neon gust Jul 24, 2020, 4:18 AM

#

bring a hel gun

full sundial Jul 24, 2020, 4:21 AM

#

I'd recommend a mine deployer and two shotgun sentries, but a c foam launcher works too instead of the mine deployer

#

the main thing is how you use them, all the tools can be effective

weary relic Jul 24, 2020, 4:30 AM

id say mine, foam, and 1 burst if 3 manning

Is that the flashlight range or something

distant ice Jul 24, 2020, 9:10 AM

meters

wispy plume Jul 24, 2020, 1:50 PM

#

Melee flashlight range is 11.0 meters

minor fractal Jul 24, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

@chilly kelp I would run 1 c-foam 2 burst.

#

Should make it fairly easy.

#

Use 1 burst for waves 1-2

#

2 burst for waves 3-6

#

Make sure to use guns as much as possible when titan waves spawn, as burst sentries will waste tons of ammo killing them while most special weapons annihilate titans.

#

Your c-foam launcher can keep the middle door sealed for the alarm as long as possible.

#

And mines on the other side of that door (you find tons of consumables) can annihilate them after you're ready.

when your kiting for an alarm (solo) should you be looping around the whole map or just like in a small loop, eg around the room

faint patrol Jul 26, 2020, 12:00 PM

Bugged enemy speed makes kiting kind of impossible right now cause enemies are as fast as you

ivory pendant Jul 26, 2020, 1:20 PM

#

its that the gunplay feels bit off so aiming was a bit harder than other games

flat rock Jul 26, 2020, 1:21 PM

#

C-foam reinforces doors if you shoot it on the door directly, which helps. The mines if placed horizontal with the ground across a door frame on the side you defend from will help blow enemies up when they come through.

#

Weapons themselves are really quite interchangeable with whatever you find comfortable to use. There are weapons better than the rest for certain things, but generally speaking there is no end all be all for weapons

craggy pier Jul 26, 2020, 1:22 PM

The crosshair when using ADS actually fire in the direction you're firing at, and the only thing keeping you from hitting sleepers is recoil

Scouts.
They often change their route when you opened a door to the room, but will they revert their path if you reclose the door?

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 12:52 PM

#

You can take a bio and play around with it but i haven't really noticed this

#

Never paid attention to it

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 12:53 PM

#

Scout pathing seems semi random, as in they have a specific route they are allowed to take, but they will change direction on a coin flip most times

#

So really if you are patient enough they will walk back up to the spot you saw them at before opening the door, what closing the door will do is that they won't send out feelers until you open the door again

#

Can speed up their route a bit

keen junco Jul 27, 2020, 3:49 PM

#

It’s my understanding that in the future the Devs plan to add weapon customization, ie: Instead of having a normal pistol and machine pistol you can change out parts on the base pistol design to customize it more to your liking. Or is the plan for the devs to make it so that the weapons will be more customizable on their end to make weapons for each run down more unique?
I’ve seen the system talked about in interviews but maybe someone here can clarify that for me?

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 3:49 PM

#

you'll be able to change the weapons yourselves to some extent

#

i think i've seen them say we'll get a part of the system they use to make guns

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 3:50 PM

#

I'm going off mainly what I heard in interviews and dev answers, but it does seem weapon parts will be a thing

#

What I don't know, is when they mentioned "permanent upgrades", if these will just be say upgrading a base gun stat with no cosmetic change

#

So there may be a combination of both

keen junco Jul 27, 2020, 3:51 PM

#

Yea this is all the same of what I’ve heard I just wanted to double check. I don’t expect it to be like Tarkovs level of weapon customization but it would cool to change out the Stock, Sight, Barrel and Mag type

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 3:51 PM

#

I imagine that will be more or less the idea

#

Different sights

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 3:51 PM

#

looking forward to removing sights overall kek

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 3:51 PM

#

Maybe even the choice of what flashlight is on the gun

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 3:52 PM

#

will we get laser sights though

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 3:52 PM

#

With the way hipfire bloom works I'm not sure if it will add anything

#

But

#

If say a laser sight is a tighter bloom, that could be for instance a "permanent upgrade"

#

There were some concept art of guns like the Bullpup that have some different grips and overall looks, so it's likely it will be something along those lines

#

The concept picture shows the Bullpup with the AR mag for instance, which is a drum mag

#

Currently AR has a 30 round Drum and Bullpup has a 40 round I assume quadstack in a way? Or at least some form of multistack but it looks a fair bit like a normal stick mag so

#

May also be that later on mags will be interchangeable among similar weapons, and that drum will have a bigger bullet count in the future and counts as an upgrade

keen junco Jul 27, 2020, 3:58 PM

#

Excellent; now I get to make a very long winded game suggestion that may get downvoted into oblivion 😂

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 3:58 PM

#

Won't know until you try right?

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 3:59 PM

#

you can say it here first to fish for reactions

keen junco Jul 27, 2020, 4:05 PM

#

Basically writing out a system for the guns that would basically include how adding a stock to a pistol (or other gun) would make it more stable and reduce recoil when firing but would increase the time to ads and increase bloom on hip fire.
Add a system for different barrel lengths where the shorter barrel does less damage over distance but decreases ADS time, medium barrel for medium ads medium bullet drop off, and long barrel for larger reduction on ads time but further the bullet drop off is much further off.
Probably also include a system for how more weapon mods would decrease your movement speed but going in with a lighter load of weapons would increase your movement speed stuff like that

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 4:06 PM

#

basically some preemptive balance ideas

#

i'd say we need to see what it looks like when it comes out first

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 4:06 PM

#

Ideally this would perhaps be better to suggest once we see what they want to do for weapon upgrades

#

Yeah

#

Because for all we know these may all be points already in consideration

#

They do want to let us play around with upgrades before 1.0, so it should be not too far in the future

keen junco Jul 27, 2020, 4:08 PM

#

That’s fair tbh

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:28 PM

I do believe there will be room to tailor a weapon as your ultimate tool of destruction

#

I wouldn't mind getting the option to decide how many shots are in a burst on the Carabine

#

4 feels like a lot at times

craggy pier Jul 27, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

I've been more accustomed to 3 shot bursts myself

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

I only dabbled in the weapons of R2 so I only really tried them out briefly before R3 happened

#

But the Burst Rifle was indeed real nice

#

It's why the Carabine caught my interest

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

the 3-shot burst damage was almost exactly the same as carbine 4-burst

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

Carabine does seem to share the same or similar platform as the SMG, so the extra burst and mag size offsets the lower damage

#

The extra ammo is also nice

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

honestly i'm not quite sure how carbine is supposed to be better than burst rifle was

#

in what way

#

cuz it seems to have absolutely nothing over rifle

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

I don't know, I actually don't know if it's better

#

What I did hear was that the ammo refill gives a better ammo to kill ratio

#

So perhaps that's the strong point, efficient refills

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

2 bursts vs 2 bursts

#

8.33 kills vs 8.75

craggy pier Jul 27, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

Idk why the 4 shot burst of the carbine feels odd

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

nothing really changes

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

I mean one number is already higher so something does change

#

The question would be more so if it has any direct impact while playing

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

it's a perfect world number and it's not an extra kill so insignificant

#

also note that rifle has better range

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

And 4 shot probably feels weird because let's face it, most burst modes on guns are usually a 2 or 3 burst

#

So it is a little unconventional

#

Burst Cannon at 5 is also peculiar

lilac fulcrum Jul 27, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

a new weapon doesn't necessarily need to be better, just different stuff (allowing the devs to play around with their weapon customization tool, and give us fresh stuff instead of same weapon choices)

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

yes but it seems like a downgrade in all aspects

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

I wouldn't say that

#

I've found it holds up pretty well even against a bullpup

craggy pier Jul 27, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

Carbine?

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

Yes

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

talking carbine vs br here

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

Oh

#

Well we don't really have it this rundown so I wouldn't know

#

Hard to compare what isn't there anymore properly

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

we still have the on-paper stats

craggy pier Jul 27, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

I'd rather fire 3 shots with the smg rather than 4 with carbine

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

And realistically, even in the future, it may change where it's strong based on expedition layouts

#

Like the HEL guns

#

If expeditions have long hallways levels then longer range guns will be more comfortable and effective

#

A CQC map layout would favour shorter range options

#

Carabine likely falls into short-mid VS the BR's mid-long(?)

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

br and carbine are both burst fire modes with rifle being better at range

#

what advantage does carbine get at short range

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

Larger mag

#

The extra quantity over quality of fire may also provide some better crowd control in smaller spaces

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

10 bursts vs 9 bursts

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

Still an advantage in a way, a quick reload too

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

br had an absurdly fast reload iirc

craggy pier Jul 27, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

Especially when you know when to cancel the animation

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

Obviously right now with fixed weapons to play with some may shine a bit more than others, but that's why I imagine weapon mods will amend the differences somewhat

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

true point

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

As it is currently though the available weapons for the most part all feel viable

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

but that's more an SMG vs AR debate i'd guess

supple skiff Jul 27, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

Carabine definitely seems to be more on the SMG side of things, so maybe indeed

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

i assume the firing modes will merge into one weapon

#

that's why i say SMG vs AR

#

gotta see what they'll do with AR when head bug gets fixed cuz things aren't looking too good for it right now (if it stays as-is with heads fixed)

fleet fiber Jul 27, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

Idk about br but carbine also has power in the shots. A burst is enough to stagger even hybrids (it may take a few for those)

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

already said, the damage of one burst is almost the same

fleet fiber Jul 27, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

Is stagger based entirely on damage?

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

damage and limb destruction

fleet fiber Jul 27, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

Hm

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

ludvig said they'll separate it next rundown

fleet fiber Jul 27, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

Separate note

#

My team is about to start c1. Is it harder than r2c1?

minor fractal Jul 27, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

Subjective.

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

i think i'd say yes

#

at the very least it's buggier than r2c1 GWcorbinTopKek

minor fractal Jul 27, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

They are a similar difficulty.

fleet fiber Jul 27, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

Lots of scouts I know that. Atleast it isn’t objectively harder

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

scout spawns might be easier this rundown? r2c1 had multi-scout rooms more often

#

what's the right word

#

r3c1 is unstable(?), you might only have to go through 1 scout per zone you cover, you might see a room with 3 scouts in it

#

or apparently someone said you can have 4

weary relic Jul 27, 2020, 6:51 PM

#

Or 5 in z13H in one of my run thrus

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

5 in a room?

weary relic Jul 27, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

Have heard of 6, tho I’ve never had it

#

Yeah

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

i'd like to see that in a video

weary relic Jul 27, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

It was day 1 so it could have been fixed

#

Had 4 plenty of times

minor fractal Jul 27, 2020, 8:12 PM

#

R2 had a lot of scout-heavy zones, but R3 doesn't really have that.

#

I think multi-scouts are about as common in zones with similar setups between R2 and R3, though.

#

A2 has the potential for multi-scouts but it's rare since scouts are uncommon, B1 has the potential for multi-scouts and actually gets them every once and a while since zones have few areas, C1 has the potential for multi-scouts but only often gets them in 13 since that's where the most scouts spawn in one zone, and D1 has a fairly high chance of a multi-scout since there are always two scouts in a zone with only two areas.

distant ice Jul 27, 2020, 8:25 PM

#

I don't remember a heavily populated room with more than 2 scouts in r2

#

Here 13 can have pretty much spawn cap in sleepers and multiscouts on top of that

#

Having one with 5-6 is jfc

#

Waiting for that r4 map that's got no alarms and multiscouts in every zone

how do you deal with the big guys in the starter room in R3A2?

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 9:44 AM

get to the 2nd zone first, clear it out after

#

honestly you can do what you want there's enough resources to recover

crystal shell Jul 28, 2020, 9:45 AM

not by the alarm but yes

weary burrow Jul 28, 2020, 1:15 PM

#

Does taking less than 4 people effect spawn rates or game mechanics in any way?

keen solar Jul 28, 2020, 1:15 PM

#

Well, I mean I saw a streamer who used cheat on Twitch once lol

gilded jolt Jul 28, 2020, 1:16 PM

#

@weary burrow No the game does not change to accommodate how many people you have

#

If you have 2 people you will still get the same amount of enemies that there would be with 4 people

weary burrow Jul 28, 2020, 1:18 PM

#

Ah ok thanks. We had such an easy time one run with only 2 vs our normal group of 4 I was curious if there was a game reason for it.

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 1:23 PM

#

It is a bit easier to sneak around when there is less of you, however security alarms are easier with 4 people

#

4 people also mean more tools you can bring, and of course more firepower

weary burrow Jul 28, 2020, 1:24 PM

#

Yeah we got one blood door down but we couldn't handle the second one on r3a2

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 1:29 PM

#

Resource spawns also don't really change with player numbers, but their location and number of charges seem to be RNG

#

Well, semi RNG, there are usually specific sectors where they are made to spawn, but the location in the sector changes

spark wolf Jul 28, 2020, 1:30 PM

#

the location changes

#

and they could be split

wispy plume Jul 28, 2020, 1:46 PM

Wish I had some cheaters in my lobbies

keen solar Jul 28, 2020, 1:50 PM

Probably have kicked most of them out of this server. Don't think you'll see any at the moment

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 1:51 PM

kek yeah right

there's always more

keen solar Jul 28, 2020, 1:52 PM

#

Well, as long as the company exists, cheat will always be around.

gilded jolt Jul 28, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

Nah the cheater we had came in had infinite ammo and super fast speed but then died during an alarm and quit lol

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

bruh

gilded jolt Jul 28, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

They did not even have god mode

#

they just died during an alarm

#

Idk they just said the thing they were using did not have god mode

#

They put the website they were using in chat but I do not remember it

lilac fulcrum Jul 28, 2020, 1:57 PM

#

The devs are aware and it's something they are working on

#

let's avoid trying to spread it any further. if you come across someone playing unfairly, DM any evidence to @uneven gulch and our team will look into it.

New to the game. Been having a blast doing it with 3 people but struggle to finish the alarm at 254>255 with just the 3 of us, we can usually clear the first 2 waves of sec scan without issue but the 3rd gets us overwhelmed. Any tips on loadouts/etc?

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 2:38 PM

#

mine deployer, foam launcher and a sentry

#

and it's a cakewalk

last helm Jul 28, 2020, 2:38 PM

#

All just stacked on that door from 254_A?

#

Haven't used the mine launcher yet so I'll give it a try

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 2:39 PM

#

sentries stand outside the door pointing into it to kill sleepers banging on it, mines usually go both before and after to thin out the waves

#

foam goes straight on the door to reinforce it

last helm Jul 28, 2020, 2:39 PM

#

You know, I'm too smoothbrained to have thought about shoving a sentry outside the door haha

#

Thanks for the tips!

#

Oh sorry, one other question. do the HEL rifle and Konig rifle have different sound radius'? Or is the konig just largely better for outranging sleepers regardless

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 2:40 PM

#

heck is konig rifle

last helm Jul 28, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

Koning* sorry

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

anyway all weapons have the same aggro range afaik

#

The PR11

#

ahh thanks

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

i assume that's the assault rifle

last helm Jul 28, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

Nah the sniper

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

oh

#

we don't usually call them by actual names

last helm Jul 28, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

Fair call haha

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 2:48 PM

#

All guns have the same sound radius yes, even though some definitely sound quieter than others

karmic totem Jul 28, 2020, 2:48 PM

#

So let me get this right all of the guns except for the assault rifle and combat shotgun are junk

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 2:48 PM

#

Not really I wouldn't say

#

Depends on the situation

#

Some people swear by the pistol for instance

vital sierra Jul 28, 2020, 2:49 PM

#

combat shotgun can 1 shot striker if you aim right

keen solar Jul 28, 2020, 2:49 PM

#

I hate assault rifle lol

vital sierra Jul 28, 2020, 2:49 PM

#

AR is not that good

#

so everyone just use smg

#

or carbine

#

most damage auto primary

karmic totem Jul 28, 2020, 2:50 PM

#

not enough ammo

vital sierra Jul 28, 2020, 2:50 PM

#

but too slow and have not much of ammo

#

exactly

#

some will like AR

#

for different reason

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

I dunno, I found that as it does get more reserve ammo than AR it's not too limiting even with the 4 round burst, for the carabine

vital sierra Jul 28, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

but i would say they can't control fast rpm weapon

karmic totem Jul 28, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

when I'm getting eaten by fucking monsters (pretty much the only time I use guns) I need something reliable

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

If you can aim, even a pistol is reliable

keen solar Jul 28, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

Pistol is great after the update, yeah

karmic totem Jul 28, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

I might as well throw string beans at them

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

Revolver is a pretty ammo efficient small monster killer too but it gives up big boi killing potential

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 2:53 PM

#

i forget how good the pistol buff was

#

range is still garbo

#

hipfire is nice but eh

vital sierra Jul 28, 2020, 2:53 PM

#

you need about 10 headshot to kill a giant with revolver

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 2:53 PM

#

it's okay but gotta wait for R4

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 2:54 PM

#

Yes, it's why I mentioned the revolver not being great on big bois

#

But if you want a bit more range than a combat shotty and are on small boi clear it can be nice

#

Will depend on what the expedition is of course

keen solar Jul 28, 2020, 2:54 PM

#

I mean, at the end, it’s pistol. I don’t think it has a good range in real life either

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 2:55 PM

#

Pistol and revolver are likely to be some of the "starting" weapons when we get gear progression anyway

keen solar Jul 28, 2020, 2:55 PM

#

I’m gonna sleep. It’s 3 am lol

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 2:55 PM

#

Sounds like a plan

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 2:56 PM

#

i don't think we'll unlock new weapons in gear progression

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 2:56 PM

#

I think we may

distant ice Jul 28, 2020, 2:56 PM

#

or direct upgrades anyway

#

besides

#

once head bug is fixed pistol+revolver is the most ammo efficient setup

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 2:57 PM

#

There will always be a base level of gear but I wouldn't be surprised if other weapon options are found in levels or as a reward

#

Doesn't mean the sniper will be locked on an E level but it could be a B or C unlock

mortal haven Jul 28, 2020, 2:59 PM

#

It's mostly the big spooky door, we can typically survive it but it always runs us out of resources. We never have any trouble with the terminals or the doors to them but that apex door gets us every time

karmic totem Jul 28, 2020, 2:59 PM

#

I want to petition the removal of pistol/revolver on the grounds that it would too unrealistic for a man to hunt genetic freaks with a little peashooter, or I would like to petition auditory and visual hallucinations for people that use them

keen solar Jul 28, 2020, 3:00 PM

#

Wrong set up

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 3:00 PM

#

Pistols usually fire a bigger round than an AR mind you

#

Just shorter range

karmic totem Jul 28, 2020, 3:00 PM

#

whats the caliber

#

of the pistol

supple skiff Jul 28, 2020, 3:01 PM

#

If it's 9mm it's already more than an AR's 5.56mm
