...

I've already completed C1
Just a bit annoyed that the progression is bugged

[mossy aurora]

if you've already completed it then why are you asking about it here? it should be obvious if its a bug or not lol

[slim shuttle]

the terminal is in zone 152
did the long ass security scan
then spent 50 minutes finding zone 148 terminal (there is none)
then pinging datacube later after the door

[mossy aurora]

people have mentioned bugged terminal locations in c1 before

you can check that channel to see what they had to do

#gtfo-technical-support message

[mild magnet]

Can someone explain the skull icons on the Rundown screen? Are they difficulty? Some missions have more than one?

[topaz anvil]

They are different sectors

Each level has at least the Main Sector

which is the main objective

some levels may have harder objectives that are completely optional but will reward you with more apparel

the 4 sectors are in order: Main -> Secondary -> Overload -> Prisoner Efficiency (Finishing all 3 in 1 run)

[mild magnet]

Sorry but I still don't get it. I finished B1 and what it sounds like youre telling me is that B2 is the same map as B1 but with one additional mission on top of the main objective. But thats wrong?

[topaz anvil]

B2 is an entirely different level

it has its own main objective

[mild magnet]

Yes I noticed xD

[topaz anvil]

and an optional objective on top of it

[mild magnet]

So all Bx has it's own map and main objectives, just more and more on top of it?

[ionic nexus]

each mission is its own map

[topaz anvil]

yes

[ionic nexus]

some maps have more to them

[topaz anvil]

the optionals do change up the main level in some way usually

[ionic nexus]

so it would be like an optional extra map on top of the current one

[mild magnet]

So what main objectives and side objectives does D4 have?

[topaz anvil]

D4 doesn't have any optionals

just main

[floral acorn]

if the main mission is difficulty 4/10, after the secondary objective the difficulty goes up to 7/10 for the remaining main mission..

(some levels)

[floral pecan]

Do al melees 1 hit kill in the head?

[mild magnet]

remaining main mission???

[topaz anvil]

Usually you do the optionals first or midway through a run

[floral acorn]

for example b2 you have to do secondary first, and after completing it you have to open the main bulkhead and do the main mission..

[topaz anvil]

^

[mild magnet]

Aaah

[floral acorn]

if you go for main with the bulkhead key, you're not getting into secondary bulk after..

[topaz anvil]

^^^

[mild magnet]

okay you lost me again

[topaz anvil]

It's an important choice to make, because choosing main means you can't do the optional

[floral acorn]

you get one bulkhead key, you can open one bulkhead door with it

if you open secondary, you have to finish the secondary objective to get the second bulkhead key

and that key then unlocks the main bulkhead door (same bulkhead controller)

if you choose main with the first key, your other bulkhead key is behind a locked bulkhead door and no way to open it etc

[loud granite]

i ask this question once more
do small scans go faster with more people on them or is it just placebo

[floral acorn]

faster with more

[topaz anvil]

Depends on the enemy, I'm not sure on strikers tho

[mild magnet]

Are we talking D4 now?

[floral acorn]

toast b2

sader, small circles do go faster with more people in them

[loud granite]

u sure? cus it feels exactly the same

[topaz anvil]

It is dw

2 people is about a 50% speed boost

[floral acorn]

at least in rundown 5 it was considerably faster to double up

if they nerfed it, it's not in patch notes at least

[floral pecan]

When i used to play there was only the mallet. Was trying to figure out if other melee weapons can help

[mild magnet]

So B2 is B1 but with a pre-mission?

[loud granite]

but its still better to just split up in scans im guessing

[floral acorn]

toast, b1 is a mission, a level with the lab setting

[topaz anvil]

b2 is a different mission of similar difficulty

[floral acorn]

toast, b2 is an entirely different level with another tileset and another objective etc etc

[topaz anvil]

ah, I only use the sledge so I'm pretty useless

[floral acorn]

and it has ... different challenges than b1

[loud granite]

even the knife oneshots to the head when fully charged

[mild magnet]

so what are bulkheads?

[floral pecan]

I had some instances of enemies running around headless @loud granite

[lilac fulcrum]

each level (a1, b1, b2, c1...) is a new level. Each level has a different layout, and a different objective to do in each level. Some levels have multiple objectives you can do in the level, in which case we call those secondary (extreme), overload, or prisoner efficiency (doing all at the same time)

[floral pecan]

Talking about the simple ones

[lilac fulcrum]

bulkheads are the entry points into the additional objectives

[loud granite]

breaking the head of a striker doesnt always kill it

[topaz anvil]

bulkheads are the choice you make to do the optional or main objective

[floral pecan]

Ah so like when i used to play. Gotcha

[mild magnet]

So if I do the secondary objective in B2, the main objective becomes harder (but only during that run?)

[topaz anvil]

yes

[floral acorn]

yep

might be slipping into #gtfo-spoiler-chat territory

[topaz anvil]

how the level changes depends on the level and the optional objective

[mild magnet]

So I can play D4 with the same "diffuculty" as A1 if I don't do anything but the main?

[floral acorn]

some levels might get considerably harder or faster paced from that point forward

[topaz anvil]

In a sense they are the "same" "difficulty"

but D tier levels by default are harder than A

[lilac fulcrum]

no.. A tier is the easiest, then D tier is the hardest

[topaz anvil]

You only have the main objective to do in D4

[lilac fulcrum]

so as you go deeper, the level will be much harder than previous levels you played

[mild magnet]

huh?

[topaz anvil]

?????

[mild magnet]

what about the side missions?

[topaz anvil]

Toast wanna hop in a vc and I can draw diagrams for you

[mild magnet]

haah sure

[topaz anvil]

Join 183

[last bronze]

Hey guys. Does this game scale with the amount of players?

[lilac fulcrum]

no, but we do have player bots aka "combat buddies" to help you out

[regal snow]

command to deactivate an alarm?

plz :p

[distant ice]

disable_all_alarms

good luck finding the right terminal

[regal snow]

YUP

no idea where it is

also ty

[distant ice]

i was joking

[regal snow]

where was the joke?

[distant ice]

it's probably not called disable_all_alarms and i have no idea what specifically you were talking about

[regal snow]

C1

[distant ice]

can't you just query the right terminal?

from any other terminal

[regal snow]

oh maybe

good idea

[distant ice]

and once on it just type commands

[lilac fulcrum]

check the objectives tab and at the top left of your screen

[distant ice]

the right command will look obvious probably

[lilac fulcrum]

usually tells you much of what you need to do

[regal snow]

okay

i think i have to get the right terminal to have to command

it doesnt give it to you before

[neon gust]

before pulling the alarm

it says what terminal you have to find to deactivate

also when pulling the alarm it will show up in your UI

you can query it in another temrinal to know in wich zone it is

[regal snow]

y y, also the query will pin it like a ping or just do a sound*?

[warm yew]

It won't

It'll just say which zone its in

[distant ice]

read the text

[regal snow]

alright ty

[distant ice]

get to the zone

find a terminal

[regal snow]

yup

[distant ice]

if it's not the right one, ping the right one

[neon gust]

Is there any plans to reduce the intensity of the lighting when shooting, i can only play for like 30 min before having my eyes strain

[shell trout]

where do i put the code to join a game

[distant ice]

join auto appears

[neon gust]

just copy the code and go back to the game

you should see a red rectangle with the host names on the left corner of your screen

[fluid sage]

This is the extra difficulty

[neon gust]

I truly is cuz im fucking blind from shooting smg

[fluid sage]

lmao

[neon gust]

bullpup fucking me up BIG TIME

[fluid sage]

fog seems way thicker as well

maybe just me tho

[fluid sage]

I legit can't see anything when shooting that gun

aim down tunnel and prey

[loud hemlock]

how do you play with friends?

I invite my friend and when i select matchmake it just kicks him

[floral acorn]

kyxar use steam friends or distribute the lobby id to friends (lobby right top corner)

they copy it, alt tab to game and they have join lobby from clipboard

[formal flame]

are both terminals in b1 supposed to show 0 cells when using the list cells command?

[distant ice]

list cell

not list cells

[formal flame]

both still show up empty

[fluid sage]

started from a checkpoint?

[distant ice]

list cell showed fine for me

[craggy pier]

How strong are the bots?

Like, if i gave em all DMR's would they just headshot everything?

[fluid sage]

they're pretty decent - shooting enemies through fog for example

[craggy pier]

Oh sick

[fluid sage]

guessing its not intended but

if you've got two bots with decent weapons

it does help clear waves majorly

[craggy pier]

Should i vary their loadouts or could i literally keep them all at DMR's and snipers and basically have 3 mobile sniper turrets?

[fluid sage]

entirely up to you

i've been duo'ing

we have the more important util on us

so foam/mines

and sentries on the bots

[craggy pier]

Aye

Its nicer to have them than straight up soloing. makes B's a lot nicer

[fluid sage]

yep

[viscid wolf]

unless they run into a wave of enemies and get blasted by your hel guns ending the run ;;

[loud hemlock]

what is the "artifact heat"?

[woeful kiln]

basically the more you have the easier it is to obtain boosters

aka picking up a muted artefact at 100% heat will give you about 0.5 booster progression and 20% heat will give you about 0.1 booster progression

it's to avoid farming boosters

[craggy pier]

how do you have the bots pick up items such as medkits

[distant ice]

@lilac fulcrum have you made the tag yet

[spark wolf]

walk away from it

[lilac fulcrum]

.t no

[uneven gulch]

No

[spark wolf]

[tropic ferry]

Based doc

[winged heron]

Ok I don't know what's going on:

Is there a period where scouts are invulnerable while spreading their feelers?
I've messed up the last several scouts, full charge hammer right in the head. I don't know what's going on

[distant ice]

if you get a white/blue hit marker they were invincible

they become that after they're alerted

[topaz anvil]

Scouts are invincible only when they are preparing to scream, which is just over a second after a tentacle turns red

[distant ice]

or if you bump them

or alert in other ways

[topaz anvil]

Shoot

Enemy scream

[winged heron]

I swing when I haven't alerted them yet. Always full charge. Only other thing I can think of is that I'm not actually hitting the head's hit box because I'm crouched or something, but I've taken out many of scouts while crouched

[covert apex]

Make a clip of you killing and missing a scout

it's easier to determine what you're doing wrong

[winged heron]

Yea I may have to. Cause right now it seems inconsistent hit detection. I should be hitting it right on the dome, but it doesn't die and alerts after

[covert apex]

You might be hitting it's shoulders

are you using the knife?

[winged heron]

No, the hammer

Been using the hammer all of early access, we're old friends lol

[topaz anvil]

Standing up is the best way especially if its also standing

[slate harness]

is the lighting/gamma in the game supposed to be this high and washed out?

[topaz anvil]

No clue

[winged heron]

Yea maybe I'll try standing before I swing. I just got rekt in the C1 scout room

[topaz anvil]

Fair enough

[random void]

Are the bots supposed to help stealth kill?

[lilac fulcrum]

no

they were too powerful in testing

[tropic ferry]

I think sometimes they recover a wake up, dont they?

[lilac fulcrum]

like if one wakes up they'll usually try to hammer first

[random void]

they do help when they wake up

I was trying to boss them around with the squick commands

[winged heron]

Yea they do a good job of wake up cleanup

[random void]

they always use guns though :/

[shrewd dirge]

i just yeet the bots outside alarms

otherwise they're just in the way

[bleak wren]

so if you only get cosmetics off of the A1,B1,C1,D1 how do you get the rest of them? cause you dont get them from the other levels right?

or am i stupid

[distant ice]

look at rundown screen top right

[lilac fulcrum]

you get for each story, AND other completions

[gentle oracle]

but how do you get more after THAT is the question?

[lilac fulcrum]

@bleak wren

[gentle oracle]

or at least my question

[bleak wren]

so the numbers are like, after completing 3 you get one, then once you complete 6 you get another?

[tawny briar]

Anybody know how you get new cosmetic items? do i just need to complete the different tours and get them through gifts and are they random? Also can i complete a1 over and over again and get items from that?

[lilac fulcrum]

three main completions, six main, etc

[bleak wren]

thats what we are talking about right now brork 😆

ah ok, so you cant just repeat them to get them again

[lilac fulcrum]

doing the same won't get you more, we didn't want people just farming

[bleak wren]

smart

[gentle oracle]

so is there only 14 skins?

[bleak wren]

seems so

not sure if its just a bug or what, but the randomness seems very wacky

[tawny briar]

But are the rewards random? me and my friend completed A1 and got different things

[bleak wren]

every single skin ive gotten is a helmet

[gentle oracle]

ive gotten mostly pallettes

[slate harness]

is there a way to get rid of that like "shimmer" effect on the main menu text?

[gentle oracle]

i only just recently got my first pair of pants

[bleak wren]

i got a backpack and a speical pallette from D1

[gentle oracle]

ive been running around the complex commando this whole time

[craggy pier]

How is difficulty measured? Is it by depth or by number? I've noticed that B2 is markedly harder than B1. Thanks

[gentle oracle]

i feel like the first level of every tier is meant to be easier for new players to get the story content

think of it as an appetizer before the waiter shoves the plate in your face

[shrewd dirge]

for a full clear, the higher the number, the harder it will be for that tier.
but it generally wont be harder than the first of the next tier.

[craggy pier]

I see

[shrewd dirge]

all the highs are roughly equivalent in the same tier

[craggy pier]

A1 and B1 were relatively easy for me and my friends but B2 and C1 have turned out to be a nightmare, which is why I asked hahaha

[gentle oracle]

you gotta feel the pain at some point

[craggy pier]

Yeah I suppose you do hahaha, has anyone tried D4? I'm curious as to how painful it is

[gentle oracle]

big oof

[shrewd dirge]

difficulty usually comes down to tool, weapon choice, and skill.

[gentle oracle]

so far its very hard

but my team cant get past the first alarm 🙂

so that dont say much

[craggy pier]

hahaha

Well thank you all for the info, much appreciated

[tropic vessel]

Hey, i have a problem with C1 Where we cant find anywere the terminal in zone 148
And we found only one and Reset_security_protocol doesn't work

[vestal girder]

is there a way to make bot pick up ammo/med/tool ? I saw the bot do it sometimes randomly

[lilac fulcrum]

if you're more than 10m from the box, the bot should pick stuff up

[rancid carbon]

@tropic vessel The objective text is just wrong. The terminal you need to use is in Zone 152

[lilac linden]

How are the different melees? Is any of them better than the others in general or are they really better at specific tasks? Haven't played since R4 so hammer is all I know haha

[vestal girder]

doesnt seem to work 😭, they just kept following me are there commands you can issue them at all ?

[carmine steppe]

Are there any thoughts with the Q menu to order bots to pick up resources?

For the future

[vestal girder]

honestly i think just being able to exchange/give resource pack for other players/bot to hold is enough

[carmine steppe]

Sure, anything to be able to give them resources reliably is fine

[craggy pier]

is the spear good or is the hammer better? what's the best meele weapon?

[lilac fulcrum]

it's something we'll talk about internally. there's probably a bug causing them to not pickup as well, but we want to also avoid the frustration of "why do I need to tell a bot to wipe their ass" and they should just do stuff and be helpful, but not at the expense of it causing confusion

[topaz anvil]

They all have their own benefits

[carmine steppe]

Understandable. I'm super happy that you guys implemented the bots either way

[obsidian rune]

Just wondering if this is a bug

we're doing b2 and trying to do the side mission

but like for some reason we can't connect uplink

cause we already did it once, died, came back to the checkpoint

and now we can't uplink again

is that part of the game or a bug?

[carmine steppe]

Yeah I think there's a bug with the checkpoint sometimes. We had that once then another time we used the checkpoint it was fine

[obsidian rune]

ah

is there a fix?

[carmine steppe]

Not sure

[obsidian rune]

or do you just ahve to restart

[carmine steppe]

We tried to do a host migration but then I couldn't reconnect

But I think that's a separate issue

[obsidian rune]

hmm ok

[carmine steppe]

@lilac fulcrum I'm sure you guys are aware but the uplink terminals on B2 extreme seem a bit flaky. It feels like if you 1) Use a checkpoint you might get stuck unable to do uplink_connect again or 2) Have someone connect when a session is in progress and they get different codes. I would assume there might be issues if a host migration occurs but that's just a guess

[lilac fulcrum]

That's one we'll be looking at next week

[livid kernel]

If you liked the melee of previous rundowns (if you played them) the hammer is the exact same (Charge and sprint). Personally I like the spear for the long range, as feel it is more useful in most situations.

[distant ice]

Hammer is nerfed actually

[topaz anvil]

Hammer can't even 1 shot shooters to the head no charge

[distant ice]

For one it's not maul, for two it doesn't one tap occiput anymore

[topaz anvil]

Maul

[distant ice]

Factually best melee out of original 4

[livid kernel]

Spear and knife just best then

[minor fractal]

All melees were equal, but some were more equal than others.

I still prefer hammer tbh.

Feels like a lot more control, and I liked the hammer playstyle.

[distant ice]

I'd go with knife if i didn't have to worry about scouts

But i do so hammer it is

I do need a skin that doesn't take up so much of my damn screen though

[ruby pebble]

do bots not put c-foam down?

[livid kernel]

My friend solo killed a giant melee with a IIX and knife last night without getting hit.

Looked like Psycho 1960

[distant ice]

Syringes will do that yes

[distant ice]

They can

[ruby pebble]

mine bugged out and didn't do anything and then wouldn't come to the security scan

[distant ice]

Respawn them in those cases

[ruby pebble]

respawn them?

[distant ice]

.t stuck bot

[uneven gulch]

If the bot is stuck somewhere, or you need to de-spawn and re-spawn it, hit the ESCAPE key, locate the bot and change the permission to "locked" to despawn the bot, then change the permission back. Bot will then respawn.

[distant ice]

This

[topaz anvil]

If its the factual best, explain why its not here anymore

[vestal girder]

[rundown specific]

[distant ice]

And explain all the other times they didn't make the best decision? Simple
They're just human

[topaz anvil]

Just going through denial I see

[distant ice]

Yes, dr phil the psychic cable warrior

[topaz anvil]

ty ty

I try my best

[ruby pebble]

yo my bot useless

he not cfoaming

[stone dirge]

i mean my bot wont put down sentrys

but will cfoam

[ruby pebble]

do you aim at the door?

[stone dirge]

yes

[ruby pebble]

q-1-5

[stone dirge]

well anywhere

[ruby pebble]

no like the command menu

or is there a different way

[stone dirge]

yes command menu

there is no other way

q-1- whatever bot u set it to and if they have an item they are holding

i reloaded and the bots just keep saying they cant do that when i want sentrys down

[ruby pebble]

mine say they can and do nothing at the location

[regal snow]

i am the only one who get softlocked after the "last?" alarm on C1?

[topaz anvil]

Did you pick up the last data cube

[regal snow]

nope

[topaz anvil]

Go do that

[regal snow]

okay

[devout musk]

Guys, just a noob question: If i host a game and play with a friend, we did not make A1 (ha ha), but the Artifact heat went down to 85 %. Now he hosted a game, and Artifact heat was 100 % for him.

[regal snow]

it is in the new room you unlock right?

i'll check

[topaz anvil]

yes

[topaz anvil]

Did you pick up artifacts before he joined you?

[devout musk]

Now I fear that the progress that we make (perhaps) - is that just for the host then? or is the progress for all players?

[topaz anvil]

Progress is for everyone regardless

[devout musk]

No, I only picked up artifacts when we played together.

[topaz anvil]

It doesn't matter who hosts, as long as everyone is there for extraction

[regal snow]

i dont find it

i still have the "do security scan to disable the alarm" message but there isnt any alarm or security scan

and next door is locked because of that

[devout musk]

And if everyone is there for extraction, that progress counts for everyone's game, does it?

[topaz anvil]

yes

even if you only joined right at the end

[devout musk]

Thanks for helping! That was really usefiul.

[topaz anvil]

no problem

[devout musk]

One other issue we experienced: we made it through the first alarm, died later on. We re-started the checkpoint, but that was not right AFTER we had done the second alarm through, but in the midst of battle (without sentry guns set up) etc.

Is that as it should be? Or is that a bug?

[neon gust]

Checkpoints are bugged as of now

mostly on terminal missions

[topaz anvil]

I don't understand the ins and outs of checkpoints sorry

[neon gust]

it work for me on more simple missions like b2 high and c3

[devout musk]

Thanks!

[regal snow]

ok so checkpoints are bugged this is why this security scan dont work

[devout musk]

It was A1 for us 🙂

[neon gust]

Sometimes it works

sometimes it doesnt

[regal snow]

yeah

[neon gust]

who knows!

[regal snow]

it worked since now for us..

its really op lol

its just game over

[neon gust]

They squashing it next week thanfully

[devout spindle]

What are the generally good weapons in this game?

[warped pulsar]

personally a fan of bull pup and carbine

[topaz anvil]

The ones that shoot

[unborn pelican]

jesus thank you bless your soul

i couldnt find anywhere how to use bots properly

[naive socket]

Hey sorry for the noob question gang, but is it possible to switch what character you can play as at all?

[stone dirge]

Yes and no

[topaz anvil]

You can choose as long as you don't host

[craggy pier]

Have we got a good look at the charger this rundown? It said in the patch notes they updated the look of it

[topaz anvil]

They don't look different imo

Maybe a bit more defined

Idk

[naive socket]

Dang it, hopefully that make that an option here soon, I dig Bishop's style compared to the rest and was just a curious.

[topaz anvil]

You can choose bishop easily if you dont host

You can still pick even if you host

[placid marten]

Hi so im doing rundown B2 right now, and messed up the secondary objective uplink and it says that the command can only be run once. Does that mean i literally cant do the secondary objective anymore?

[topaz anvil]

But its got a couple of extra steps

[topaz anvil]

Did you finish the uplinks?

[placid marten]

no i messed up the connection

and when attempting to put the ip again, it says command was already called and can only be run once

[unborn pelican]

how, if i may ask?

[topaz anvil]

I think thats a bug, since normally it just says you put in the wrong ip

But you can get the bulkhead key in there without needing to finish extreme so you arent softlocked

[placid marten]

the exact line is ERROR:// This command only allows one use. Command has already been called

[topaz anvil]

Join as host, have your friend join, leave the lobby, have your friend lock the player slots of the characters you dont want to be to bots only, and rejoin

And then if you want to host you can just get your teammate to leave and rejoin

[unborn pelican]

nice, thanks for the tips!

i hope they eventually add a character menu

[topaz anvil]

Hopefully

[dull schooner]

My bot refuses to put down a sentry turret where I tell him to, is this a bug?

[unborn pelican]

do you know if the bots can do sneaky kills? because that d be rad 👀

[tawny briar]

Is there a place where i can see what specific tasks i need to do in order to get the backpack i want in "inventory" or is it random after complition of expiditions

[regal canyon]

if i have a +85% regen cap booster does that still work against the infection or do i still get put at 15 health with 85% infection?

[unborn pelican]

as of now i would say its a random reward from expedition

[placid marten]

restarting from checkpoint seems to have fixed it

[flat hornet]

Can I command the bots?
Like give them the command to sneaky kill something?

[unborn pelican]

you can command them

press q

a new menu displays

u can tell them to use turrets and such at least

i tried to fiddle with the sneaky menu without success tho

we despawned a bot because he was bugged

he has trip mines instead of a turret now 👀

[shell gate]

was there any way to directly make a bot directly pick up items?

[solid spear]

When will there be controller icons for the game?

Because asof now theres no ping button on controller

[shrewd dirge]

just remap the controlls to what you want in the steam controller config for GTFO

[solid spear]

I know but i mean like icons of i want open a door i don't want to guess what button i want to press now i know now that to open doors its RB but i didn't know that before

If i want to pick something up i want to see what button i need to press

Not press E while im using a controller

do you even understand what i said?@shrewd dirge

[shrewd dirge]

yes

but in the case of ping (middle mouse), how would that even work, half the time you look at something anywhere you would see the ping key in the middle of your screen

frankly, if i was playing gtfo with controller, i would hate that shit.

not only that, it would give stuff away when you look through the fog

[solid spear]

The Y button doesn't get used

The only reason im playing gtfo on controller is because my mouse locks my keyboard after getting disconnected because the wires are fucked

Im just confused why theres no controller icons for the game when your interacting with items

[hoary siren]

the game isnt fully controller supported, it says so on the steam page

[solid spear]

Oh i didn't see that

[gusty swift]

bots dont want to place sentries when i tell them to?

[craggy pier]

Is it a known bug that bots don't use any tools when told to?

[gusty swift]

well the bot threw coom on the door

when i told it too

but when itell them to place sentries they like nah

fuck you

to me

[honest basin]

do large enemies always teleport over ladders?

[wet snow]

hello

i have a question

how do or is there a a2 a3 for the rundown

im confused

[naive socket]

Think it's just A1

[hoary siren]

theres only A1

2 B levels, 3 C levels, 4 D levels

[naive socket]

Also loving the fact the devs are adding story💯

Is the clothing character specific with who you unlock it on or do they show up in all of the character's inventory btw?🤔

[unborn pelican]

its the same inventory for all chars

i tried switching to Hackett once and he was wearing the cosmetics i had with another guy

[naive socket]

Thank god

Oh shii, that means I can get the other peeps getting that dope Hackett vibe👏 Hope they add the ability to switch characters in lobby

[quiet stratus]

question for the in-game clothing i know you get it for completing a mission the first time around are there other ways to earn them as well?

ik they have the thing in the top right but i dont understand what it means

[keen solar]

Just completions

Complete main objective on different levels to get a reward/ complete secondary objective on different levels

X2, X3 are just the levels you have completed. For example, finish two high to get a reward

Just follow and complete the whole rundown you will get everything

[quiet stratus]

wait so if i want more for lets say main sectors i would have to complete all of them 3 times?

ok just was a little confused when i completed a1 3 times thinking i would get something lmao

[keen solar]

You need to do 3 different main sectors

[quiet stratus]

ohhhhhhhhhh

[keen solar]

Which are 3 different levels that have main sector

[low stone]

is there an unstuck option

[quiet stratus]

ok that makes alot of sense so when i complete c1 it will happen

[keen solar]

Just saying that because not every level has secondary or overload

[quiet stratus]

yeah im a noob i dont understand what those are yet

[keen solar]

You finish a level you unlock a Tier

[quiet stratus]

ah

[keen solar]

Oh

[low stone]

i mean im stuck in a wall

[keen solar]

I saw unlock option

Nvm

Lol

Nuh you’re dead

[quiet stratus]

rip

[keen solar]

Just don’t jump around next time

[low stone]

[floral pecan]

I didn't even manage to get stuck when the game got released

Also i see that enemies take a lot more damage in the "occiput". Is that just the back of the head?

[floral acorn]

yup, back + head multipliers combined

[floral pecan]

So if there is x2 multiplier to the back and x3 to the occiput, it's a x5 correct?

[keen solar]

I think head multipliers are not suitable in all melee weapons at all

If that’s the case, hammer could back tap. But it doesn’t

Right now I think the bat is the only weapon that can do the back tap like what we used to do

[floral pecan]

What's a back tap?

[keen solar]

Back of the head doesn’t require full charge, just need to do a light tap

[floral pecan]

Oh right

[keen solar]

That’s the case for R1 to R5

But they change all melee weapons so it doesn’t do that at all

[floral pecan]

Do we know the damage for each melee?

I used to play in R1 and 2, seeing all these melee weapons makes me happy for variety but also confused tbh

[keen solar]

Well everyone is learning so it’s ok to be confused

[proud grove]

havent played since R1 anything new? No bugs?>

[ruby wasp]

"No bugs" ayy lmao

[floral pecan]

I come from r1 and r2 (44 hrs).
So far i noticed more enemies / weapons, cosmetics, relics for buffs @proud grove

[mossy aurora]

did they increase muzzle flash compared to r5?

[floral pecan]

Also that the game feels a lot easier.. B1 felt like a normal A1

[ruby wasp]

It is

[floral pecan]

Hope that changes when i go deeper, it prob will

[ruby wasp]

The weapon buffs, the fact there is a shitton more ammos to compensate the kiting along with more tweaks somehow make A-tier & B-tier stupidly easy

Starting from C2 it's all about "hey let's add fog everywhere to make things difficult"

[floral pecan]

Eh that sucks. I loved the difficulty in R1 / R2

[ruby wasp]

When you'll do C2 & C3

imagine them without fog

and you will surely understand how fog impacts difficulty 😩

[floral pecan]

Ah ye i hate fog. Luckily the scanner is a thing

The difficulty from R1 / R2 came from knowing that around 2-3 fuckups was the max you had, and still had to clear very difficult scans

I remember 1 was filled with || chargers || ..

[ruby wasp]

Well

[floral pecan]

That was the most painfull scan i've ever done

[ruby wasp]

R5 was filled with them too

Like

B1 had chargers
B3 had chargers
C2 had chargers
D1 had chargers
D2 had chargers
E1 had chargers

[floral pecan]

During scans?

[ruby wasp]

not only during scans

[steady iris]

hey i cant join my friend in A1, im just invisible when i join the lobby but we cant start and he can hear me talk in the lobby

anyone got somethin on that

[ruby wasp]

B3 was an error alarm with chargers but the cooldown was extremely high so it wasn't that much of an issue

in C2 chargers appeared in overload's waves

D1 had chargers in scout waves

along with a zone with chargers and ||a tank||

etc

[floral pecan]

Also, you can melee scouts after touching the tendrill? That's new to me

[ruby wasp]

Yes

you have approx 1/1.5s to kill a scout after hitting a tendril

By hitting i mean the tendril goes red

Sometimes the tendrils don't detect you for some reason

GTFO moment i'd say

[floral pecan]

Mmh.. does that mean you can wait for animation to play and literally run in his face?

[ruby wasp]

Yes

[floral pecan]

Is that new? Don't recall that as doable in r1/2

[ruby wasp]

No idea tbh

i started with R4

and it was already there

[floral pecan]

Ah fair

The only way that was known in r1/2 was to place yourself in the path he was going to take and time it so you can hit him when he walked close

I believe you can crouch walk near him.. but idk, don't play from a while

^ full melee wise that is.

[ruby wasp]

yeah you can crouch & not get hit if you're close enough

[floral pecan]

Will need to play around with these again. If that tendrill thing works it sounds like an easy way to get rid of em without using C foam or heavy guns

[floral acorn]

scouts love the smell of choke mod shotgun in the morning ❤️

[naive socket]

What's artifact heat if I may ask? Finished A1 and went from 100 to 75%

[weary mesa]

It’s how much progress to get toward a booster

100% is .1 for a booster

75% is .075

[naive socket]

ahhhh gotchya

Would you also happen to know what the yellow text "Completed: [1,-,-,-]" underneath is?

[weary mesa]

What layer you have completed

So on missions with only man it’ll be 1,-,-,-

Ones with more will be 1,0,-,-

[naive socket]

oh damn

[weary mesa]

So secondary is the second one

Overload is third

PE (doing all layers in one run without a checkpoint) is 4th

[ruby wasp]

wasn't it 0.15 at 100% ?

[weary mesa]

Might be I remember someone saying something about it similar to mine

Yours is probably more accurate

I’ve never really tested it booster not interesting anyways

[heavy zodiac]

can i not repeat a level and get more customizable outfits?

[vagrant coyote]

is it possible to make 1 a harder?

or what is the other difficulties?

Main sectors

secondary sectors

overload sectors what do those mean?

[rugged dock]

Best map to practice scout kills?

[heavy zodiac]

b1

[earnest pulsar]

secondary is an optional objective, overload means that there is 2 optional objectives. if you complete the main objective and both optional objectives in a single run, you get PE, prisoner efficiency, which is the 4th number on the missons that have it

not every level has optional objectives and some only have one

[earnest pulsar]

you can make A1 harder by getting everyone in your group to do certain challenges like no hud, hammer only, or single fire weapons only etc. but other than that there are no other objectives for A1

[feral hamlet]

is there any way to make the bots all hit a big guy while doing stealth?

[earnest pulsar]

did you try the "big guy there" prompt?

[feral hamlet]

yea

[earnest pulsar]

I've never played with bots but I know that it's there so if that didn't work then I think you're out of luck

[plush island]

does anyone know if the items/gear acquired after clearing an expedition is limited to certain things or random?

[rugged dock]

can you kill a scout with an occiput hit with the combat knife?

[earnest pulsar]

yes, I recommend jumping for it

[rugged dock]

huh, maybe my aim the last couple of tries was just bad then

[earnest pulsar]

did you jump?

[rugged dock]

i did while the feelers were retracting b/c i'm not confident in an occiput hit while host

with the bending down and all

[earnest pulsar]

how close were you

[rugged dock]

pretty damn close, might've just nicked a shoulder though

[earnest pulsar]

and when did you release

[rugged dock]

at apex of jump

[earnest pulsar]

that could've been just a milisecond early or you just got unlucky

it would be way easier if you did it when the scout was fully stretched out and has its head back a little but even then I would still say to jump

did you aim for the top of the head?

[rugged dock]

it was a more mid head hit

[earnest pulsar]

that might be it

[rugged dock]

knife is just so damn good that i'll have to practice

[earnest pulsar]

my ranking of the melee weapons is the order they're displayed but the knife is so close to being my favorite

But I can confirm that knife can kill a scout with a full charge to the back of the head

[rugged dock]

did they nerf hammer? it doesn't always kill on a full charge back hit when killing shooters

[earnest pulsar]

it never did, you have to hit inbetween the shoulder blades right on the black sacks

@rugged dock if that doesn't work then either you're really unlucky or they nerfed it

[craggy pier]

how long is C1

[earnest pulsar]

do you have someone that's beaten it

or has some experience

[craggy pier]

nope

[tacit zealot]

C1 is an hour to an hour and a half

[earnest pulsar]

I haven't beaten it but it took over an hour to get almost to the end

[vestal osprey]

do you go from b1 to b2 or b1 to c1

[earnest pulsar]

you can go from B1 to C1 if you want

B2 is not required for C1

[vestal osprey]

what does it mean by priority expedition though

[earnest pulsar]

it just means that those are the main missions, as in the warden cares about the completion of those expeditions more than the others

and you need to complete them to move on to the next tier

and get clothing

[naive socket]

Can you farm clothing or do they only drop once on completion?

[earnest pulsar]

on the rundown page at the top right you can see all the things that will give you clothing and the ones you have done will be crossed out so no

[velvet verge]

so can anyone answer me this

Ran B2 Extreme with some buds.. we completed the secondary objective. we then went to do the high alarm door. died. and the saved checkpoint put us before we did the extreme secondary objective.

issue is.. the terminals this time wont let us use the uplink commands because we already did it before the quick save, is the extreme objective bugged and we have to do a full restart? or will it count?

[weary mesa]

It’s a bug

[viscid wolf]

probably is bugged

[weary mesa]

You have to restart

[viscid wolf]

might have to restart

[earnest pulsar]

I don't know if it will count but that is definitely a bug that other people have had

[velvet verge]

oh thats unfortunate.. thanks a ton

[tender stone]

Hi everyone, I'm new to the pc gaming world and I've got question as I feel clueless right now. I'm trying to use in game chat (GTFO) and I can hear everyone but they can't hear me. I've changing the settings from push to talk to voice activated but still nothing, What am I missing besides my brain?

[earnest pulsar]

do you have a microphone and does it have its own mute button

and is it selected as your microphone in wondows

[tender stone]

it's a center ear mute button with light on mic to let me know it's mute

I use this headset on my pc discord so it seems to working with my windows

[earnest pulsar]

well you can have a mic selected for discord besides the windows default

[feral wave]

This happened to us. Had to restart checkpoint, after that it worked for us

[tender stone]

ok didn't know that

[earnest pulsar]

if it is the default in windows already then I don't know what to say other than does your mic also have a sensitivity control thats turned down, is the in game sensitivity thrned down, and maybe just try restarting

[tender stone]

I'll check into all of that. Thanks for the help.

[hallow scarab]

i've only played about 45 minutes of the game but the 'red light green light' comments from people are making me nervous about if that's all the game is at higher levels

[earnest pulsar]

that's just the basics of stealth-ing

the higher levels are filled with strategy and planning and they depend on teamwork

[quartz blaze]

Do AI have a meta? Like does the AI use some guns better than others?

[tacit zealot]

I think it's too early to discuss that.

[stone dirge]

I mean sniper and dmr is kinda nice on them ngl

As they have literal aim bot

[calm terrace]

so like, is the spear having a lingering hitbox intended?

[stone dirge]

Probably

[calm terrace]

i hope so, because im loving it right now

[stone dirge]

All melee weapons i think have been coded differently to have their own thing

[calm terrace]

it feels like dragging in Chivalry to extend your hitbox lol

[stone dirge]

Im liking the knife because of how fast it is but it only kills with full charge if u hit the head as a body shot wont kill

[calm terrace]

i think it makes up for not being able to sprint

the spear doesnt kill on a body shot either

you need a headshot from any direction

[stone dirge]

Ahhh

[calm terrace]

but the spear has HUGE range and can one shot scouts

and also you can get multikills in stealth with the dragging

ive read that the bat can stunlock dudes

and that it has the best uncharged damage

i havent tried it though

[tacit zealot]

Has any Dev confirmed that the swing mechanic on the spear is intentional?

[neon gust]

its a bug

but if we bitch enough it can probably be a feature

i personally love it

[weary mesa]

Kinda retarded if the enemies aren't actually right next to each other

[tacit zealot]

Anyone else the terminal did not deactivate the error alarm :/

D@

D2

zone 200

terminal command did not work ,and now DEACTIVATE_ALARMS cannot be put in again

[hoary siren]

it's a bug

lots of bugs happening lately

Devs said they're fixing it all starting Monday

submit a bug report if you can

[warm yew]

Checkpoint moment

[vital sierra]

is there like, 2 terminals and you got the wrong one?

if it's the right one then bug report

[tacit zealot]

Not even checkpoint related

I dont know what cause it tho

[spiral cave]

How tolerant is the GTFO community towards players who don't use mics? Is it easy to find people to play with if you don't use a mic yourself? I'm thinking about getting this game, but I never use a mic. I do use text chat in games where it's available and I generally listen to tips from more experienced players than me.

[vital sierra]

we have communication comms now

so there is no reason for them to be upset

[tacit zealot]

Most are okay with it. just put like (no mic) in ur username or sum

[spiral cave]

You mean like a wheel where you pick a command from? Something like "Watch out, enemy here"?

[vital sierra]

yup

[spiral cave]

ah, nice 🙂

[vital sierra]

we have comms like, put sentry here, put mines here, put cfoam on this door

synchronize hammer

[spiral cave]

that should come in handy

[vital sierra]

count down to hammer

[spiral cave]

synchronize melee hit, gives you countdown?

oh very nice then

[vital sierra]

you have 2 set of command

synchronize hammer

and count down

you tell your teammate to synchronize hammer, once you get to the enemy you can use comms countdown

and it will count 3 2 1

[finite plinth]

don't even need to because stagger is so consistent now

stunlock lmao

[spiral cave]

I already watched a 55 minute video on weapon tier list

don't even own the game yet lol

I want to be well-informed before buying

[hoary siren]

good idea

too many people buy it with 0 research and then get mad that its hard lmao

thats like 80% of the negative reviews unfortunately

[spiral cave]

yeah, I read it's hard, probably especially true for people wanting to rambo the game

[hoary siren]

facts

[ivory river]

Guys, quick question. After cleaning the level you got cosmetics, right? But what to do if you complete all missions in rundown and want more skins? You get the skins if you complete level first time, but if you complete it the second time you get nothing. Any another ways to open new skins after cleaning rundown?

[hoary siren]

as far as im aware, you only get it those 4 times?

[naive socket]

Darn, that's a good question

[craggy pier]

Hi everyone 👋 I’m new to the game and have a question I hope to get answered here related to matchmaking.

In this post #how-to-matchmake message it’s told that the lobby ID should be copied to Discord. I play via GeForce NOW and the service doesn’t allow me to copy / paste from / to the virtual machine.

Are there GFN users who can advise how they handle matchmaking?

[solar crane]

In b2 when you find the dna sample and get through the scan door, do the enemies keep coming?

Or do you still have to book it somewhere

[steel valley]

once you get the dna you just extract

[solar crane]

But there’s a door you have to open that can only be opened when extracting right?

[covert apex]

Try #gtfo-technical-support

[floral acorn]

inviting / joining steam friends works w/o copypasting

or you could manually type the code to a notepad and then copy it inside the vm.. or sth.

it's only xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx or so

[steel valley]

yeah you just have to do that section while dealing with the constant alarm

[woeful kiln]

if they can't join you you might as well get someone to host for you

[shy agate]

Im new to GTFO and was wondering if anyone could describe the gameplay loop. Im playing with friends and really enjoy it. I think part of the fun is experiencing the new content with friends so is their any reason to replay the already completed content?

[floral acorn]

absolutely, trying diff weapons and tactics

[hallow osprey]

okay, anyone else here feel like bots simply aren't using certain guns? I gave one of 'em the scattergun (as well a few weapons on the top of the weapon list). I wanna be sure, is it a bug, idk. Some input would be nice.

[woeful kiln]

they do use guns a lot but

i wouldn't advise giving them a scatter gun

i think they only use scatter gun on big packs or big enemies

[hallow osprey]

ah, strange, cuz i got overrun pretty quick in B1's alarm door ||(where the cell and scout are)||

[woeful kiln]

how did you set up for the defense?

from what i've seen bots use guns so much they even shoot throught doors

[hallow osprey]

sentry on one side, doors foamed, one trip mine

[hallow osprey]

what? Really?

[woeful kiln]

yeah and i do the same

[night kindle]

do you get clothes from palying new missions or even by replaying already compleated ones?

[dapper nimbus]

Only from playing new missions. A1 B1 C1 and D1 have guaranteed drops afaik

[night kindle]

ok thx

[woeful kiln]

#gtfo-related-questions message

[woeful kiln]

check this

[versed gorge]

can big guys climb up ladders?

[dapper nimbus]

yes

[versed gorge]

shit

thanks though

[floral pecan]

Anyone knows if all melee weapons have the same dmg?

[floral acorn]

nope

[loud granite]

they dont, each weapon deals different damage

[floral acorn]

knife < bat < hammer < spear but not 1:1 comparable

[floral pecan]

Can the knife 1 tap strikers from the back of the head without charging?

[loud granite]

no weapon can do that now

not even the hammer

[floral acorn]

hammer requires ~10% "tap" or so

[floral pecan]

Even the spear can't?

[loud granite]

from what i remember no, but currently it doesnt need that cus u can cleave with it

[loud granite]

and knife charges so fast, it might as well onetap

[floral pecan]

Oh didn't know that.
I guess that means the max n. Of strikers you can take alone stealthly in quick succession is 2?

[loud granite]

with spear u can cleave like 7 sleepers if they're cluster very close together, because of how active it stays after u thrust u can turn around to other sleepers and its gonna hit them too

[floral pecan]

That alone may make it the best melee weapon at first glance.
What about the rest? In R1/R2 i know the limit was at 3 at a time alone

[loud granite]

spear still suffers from making u quite immobile, not being able to charge while sprinting is a big deal

[loud granite]

knife is just really good at clearing small sleepers, half a second to fully charge and a headshot will kill both types

[floral pecan]

Even from a front headshot correct?

[loud granite]

bat is mostly for bullying bigger enemies, cus fast charge+stagger but it deals just a bit more damage than knife

[loud granite]

yes

[floral pecan]

Mmh.. interesting. 3 may still be doable with it

[loud granite]

as long as u can land the headshots

cus anywhere else

it deals no damage

[floral pecan]

Also doesn't stagger only happen when you break body parts?

[loud granite]

stagger happens when u deal alot of damage too

but knife can only stagger from breaking parts

every other weapon can do that with a full charge

[floral pecan]

Lots of good info. Looks like the bat / spear are the ones to look at so far

[loud granite]

important note

bat can only kill scouts to the back of the head

knife i havent gotten a chance to test it

hammer is still a fantastic choice cus it doesnt have any weaknesses

[floral pecan]

Mmh.. what about big guys? I doubt you can stagger these unless you go for body parts right?

[loud granite]

bat can always stagger them

[floral pecan]

Even a random hit? Wow

[loud granite]

u can solo stealth a giant with bat and kill it before screaming

just need to space out ur attacks well

[floral pecan]

And no need to aim at limbs either?

In R1/R2 with the lack of knowledge we had we took 1 body part each. It was hilarious cause they were left with nothing

[loud granite]

going for limbs is still worth it for the consistent stagger

[loud granite]

a walking skeleton, where the hell is it hiding the tentacle

[floral pecan]

To give you the idea, after 30hrs i learn about back multiplier

[floral pecan]

Doesn't the bat stun anyway at full charge?

[loud granite]

ive had situations where they tanked the hit and screamed anyway, so it isnt the most consistent thing

nothing is constant in this game

[floral pecan]

Correct. Strikers running around headless sometimes

[loud granite]

strikers tend to do that

[floral pecan]

We tought it was somewhat of a bug back then

[loud granite]

both strikers can still do their thing headless, other types u can be sure they're dead when their head goes pop

[floral pecan]

Oh nah. I mean sometimes full charged hits to the head didn't kill them

Rarely, but it happened

I got used to fully charge a new hit right away "just in case"

[loud granite]

mightve hit the neck then, exploding the entire upperbody which deals less damage because ofc it does

[floral pecan]

That sounds like the case

Sweet thanks @loud granite

[loud granite]

[deft dragon]

good morning. is there a way to increase visibility in the game? I understand its meant to be hard to navigate but i feel blind for around 80% of the time

[distant ice]

take a weapon with a good flashlight 🤔

[floral acorn]

not really.. flashlights sometimes glare with fog.. but otherwise the long range flashlight helps a lot

[deft dragon]

are there differences in flashlights? i noticed some have bigger cones or a different hue but as hirn just said, it usually feels like a full beam headlight in a foggy night to use them

[floral acorn]

also middle clicking the shadowy parts might reveal boxes lockers terminals doors even if u dont see them per se

the shoulder light default works better than in r5 imo.. all the guns have diff lights, some good some not

LRF ftw in dark areas

[deft dragon]

well i meant graphics settings wise anyways because so far from my "testing" it didnt make much of a difference

[distant ice]

visibility where exactly

environment lights seem bright af

[floral acorn]

dont see how a setting might give an edge per se

[deft dragon]

exactly, ive seen footage on youtube where i could see what was going on a lot better.

in my own game i either get flashbanged by enviromental lights or my own flashlight, or i dont see anything because its pitch black

[floral acorn]

youtube r5? they were different, vastly..

[deft dragon]

currently its r6? r referring to rundown?

[distant ice]

i don't think base game can do anything about that

but the flashbanged is my life always too

[floral acorn]

yes.. if u see a good visibility video from lets say scaler or khepri, then feel free to ask them, they're all here :)

[lilac linden]

I think they might use those NVIDIA filters to increase visibility maybe? I know I've done that with DBD so stands to reason it could work similarly in GTFO

[regal snow]

when you can hit multiple targets with one charged attack? discorvered this funny bug just yesterday then understood what you are talking about XD its so cool! do you have any idea if that gonna be patched or not?

[craggy pier]

It's just the actual hitting being longer than the animation

Pretend that it's a broadsword and not a spear

albeit you can even double or triple kill in line, just keep moving after you released the m1

[regal snow]

i flick on the other target for now

[deft dragon]

i can try that indeed, or reshade maybe. but my goal isnt to break the intention of the devs, but i neither want to feel like im playing csgo at night with people that flashbang themselves

[gray gazelle]

What is the point of artifacts which you find on each level ?

[floral acorn]

boosters

u get em for artifacts collected.. the arti heat indicates how efficiently

[fathom plover]

Are the clothes random drops for completely any rundown? I want to make my guy look cool as quickly as possible but im not sure how to go about it lol.

[spark wolf]

is the dash nerf an anti-kiting measure?
it was pretty much only used to dodge during active combat, it's also not that unrealistic to quickly burst into a certain direction
patch notes don't mention it unless its part of anti-kiting, why is it so weak now?

it's also a fuck you to people that are used to it

[distant ice]

Probably same shit as slide nerf

A side effect of it

Unintended

[fleet oak]

Hi all, got the game yesterday. Pretty great, already got the hang of how it plays and all but I'm very confused about the matchmaking...

How does it work exactly ?

[faint flame]

you select what level you want to do

[fleet oak]

Like sometimes I'll get in lobbies with 1, 2 or 3 people and if someone leaves, there's no way to fill that spot with another player without leaving the current lobby ?

[distant ice]

Mm is early access still

Lfg better

[worldly perch]

so which melee weapons aside from sledgehammer can one shot a scout?

[faint flame]

spear

people are reporting knife and bat can to the back of the head

[worldly perch]

thanks

[faint flame]

but cannot suggest you try with knife

risky overall

[worldly perch]

I'll grab a spear for c1 then

[digital geode]

Do bots have issues dropping mines ? They seem totally fine with door frames, but they do not seem to like some walls, especially for giant placements (high).

[worldly perch]

yeah bots are very dumb with the mine deployer

they are great with bio tracker tho

[digital geode]

Still better than the foam

Asking a bot to cfoam a door 5 times is tedious, so i take the cfoam myself.

[digital geode]

For sure, except tagging scout in stealth, it seems random.

[wooden osprey]

@mortal marten better you ask your question here

also look up on your screen

push foward and find the zone the terminal is in

than do commands

and deactivate the alarm

GL

[distant ice]

well actually that should go in #gtfo-spoiler-chat

but mods don't seem to care about that this rundown

full force dedicated to discord bots kekw

[mortal marten]

we find the terminal, but without getting any deactivate command in the list 😒

[wooden osprey]

did you find the right terminal

and if you did use the command commands

to find it

if its not there

its bugged 😄

[tawny sigil]

I am brand new to the game, got it with Geforce Now. I SUCK when the enemies get woken and alerted. Is there an easy no brain meta gun loadout for just ease of use?

Been trying to use this burst fire thing but having difficulty tracking enemies, I want something absolutely no brain whilst I get used to the enemy mechanics.

[steel valley]

probably ar and heavy ar

though learning to shoot is kinda a bug deal

[tacit zealot]

Surely shotgun

[open hound]

So how do you get skins? We played B2 3 times and never once got a skin.

[distant ice]

you don't get skins for repeating the same levels

either main story or unique clears at specific counts

rundown menu top right

[open hound]

But they never gave us skins

like

at all

for B2 i mean

[topaz anvil]

It's only the priority levels

[lilac fulcrum]

you mean the palettes for diff colors?

[distant ice]

specific counts

[woeful kiln]

on my way to fetch DocR3d picture

[topaz anvil]

• finishing x amounts of mains/secondaries/overloads

[lilac fulcrum]

there's drop pools

[distant ice]

it's not for one level

it's at 3 6 9 high iirc

and so on for extremes and ovl

#gtfo-related-questions message

[tacit zealot]

I suppose for main sector 3x you would assume that you would get a drop on B2?

[woeful kiln]

maybe they skipped a level?

[topaz anvil]

You would ye

[tacit zealot]

A bit hard, dont you need B1 to get B2, and A1 to get B1? That's 3 levels.

[woeful kiln]

nah

you can go straight to B2 by joining someone hosting B2

[open hound]

does this mean we will get less skins in the end?

[woeful kiln]

?

[topaz anvil]

you can skip

[woeful kiln]

you will always get the same ammount

[tacit zealot]

I just assume they play as group... he said "we"

Level clears.. vanity...

[warped vigil]

no

[tacit zealot]

Ty

[lilac fulcrum]

why would you?

[tacit zealot]

Documenting. I make guide for friends.

I do not want it now, but later.

[open hound]

No we did A1 B1 C1 D1, and then B2. And got nothing

For b2

[topaz anvil]

thats 5/6

[open hound]

we got nothing

[topaz anvil]

you need to do another level

[open hound]

Got it

[topaz anvil]

Look on the right of the rundown

You see the numbers

Nice casino

i like it

[digital geode]

casino would imply the high likelihood of losing money

[open hound]

casino would imply the high likelihood of losing*

[rain steeple]

It doesn't cost you anything but ight

[finite plinth]

you lose time

[rain steeple]

Still, the levels are still there for months at a time usually

[balmy cloud]

Can you not matchmake with a friend?

[lilac fulcrum]

you absolutely can

we added it this rundown

create lobby, add friend, start matchmaking

[balmy cloud]

Well it kicks the other and cancels matchmaking

We'll check again now

[open hound]

its (a bit) buggy

[jagged ginkgo]

how to change crouch to hold not toggle in v1.0?? I don’t see any setting to make crouch not toggle

[kind trail]

should be in gameplay, I changed it yesterday

It's the top of the list on gameplay

[jagged ginkgo]

Ok..🤔 (spent 20 mins searching it in setting during a match)

[kind trail]

I looked for like 5-10 minutes too

I felt so stupid when it was literally #1 on the page

[eager plover]

just had a quick question

wait can i not post a screenshot in here

[kind trail]

yeah, you've never been able to.

Post it to another server/dm and then copy the link of the image

[eager plover]

so when you complete like A1 for example, it shows "Completed {1,-,-,-}

i was just wondering what that number meant?

[digital geode]

A1 has no alternate objectives, sadly

it just has the main objective, the 1 st "1"

[kind trail]

That's for alternate objectives

[eager plover]

I also completed B1 and it shows the same thing so does that mean it also doesn't have an alternate objective?

[digital geode]

correct

when you click on a level, it shows the possible objectives with icons

[eager plover]

ah okay ty

[kind trail]

1 - main objective / high, 2nd # is secondary/Overload? and third is Extreme, and last is Prisoner efficiency (you've done them all in one expedition)

[eager plover]

and for the artifact heat percentage is that like, something I affect?

[digital geode]

main , secondary and overload. If you do all 3 in one run, you get the fourth "1" called Prisoner Efficiency.

[lilac fulcrum]

main
secondary (used to be extreme)
overload
pe

[kind trail]

ohhhh that makes sense

[eager plover]

is that basically like an achievement?

[digital geode]

sort of

[woeful kiln]

it's a side objective 🙂

[kind trail]

yeah. you play a level too much and the quality of artifacts you find goes down. play a different level to make that number go up

[digital geode]

PE completions has been a requirement for E levels when they are released.

[kind trail]

side objective / unlock deeper missions / ect

[woeful kiln]

not anymore

not in R6

just beat the main level to unlock it's side levels

because this time

extreme and Overload are actually hard

[eager plover]

so do I have to do the secondary objectives to unlock something or is it more for fun/completionist

[digital geode]

they unlock cosmetics

[eager plover]

that's enough for me to do them 😂

[digital geode]

and also for showing off

if your definition of fun is sadomasochist challenge, go for it 😄

[woeful kiln]

#gtfo-media message ye you can flex like this if you get extremes 😎

[eager plover]

and i don't know if i should be using the artifacts more/at all? I'm only on B2, but i feel like it's kicking our asses a little bit lmao

[woeful kiln]

use em if you want

reminder that

you don't need boosters to complete the entire rundown

[digital geode]

id keep those until you hit a harder level, unless you are about to lose some

[woeful kiln]

but they always fun to have

[mossy aurora]

does projectile resistance affect friendly fire?

[eager plover]

i just feel like the || gas || on B2 is always screwing my squad over even with fog repellers

[digital geode]

I havent played B2 yet, but if there is a fog turbine, find it

[mossy aurora]

there isnt, need to use repellers

[raven linden]

There's not one

[digital geode]

gross

[mossy aurora]

there is a decent amount of them though, most of the pub groups i've played with dont appreciate them and just waste them

[digital geode]

id expect Cs to not have a turbine, R4C3 ? but Bs ?

[woeful kiln]

if there is one level where you need fog repellers it's C3 and D3 pe

[kind trail]

there's a shedload of repellers

and theres a disinfect station afterwards

[eager plover]

There was a lot of repellers, but it was our first run through and we didn't know where we needed to go/where the infectious stuff even was

and we only found 1 disinfectant

[raven linden]

You kinda just gotta assign someone to collect resources from the fog.

Have one infection tanking unit.

[kind trail]

^ that's what my group did

[digital geode]

there are boosters that person can use

[eager plover]

that's probably gonna be me 😂

[raven linden]

Won't help you as much when you have to scan in the fog, but that's what the repellers are for.

[mossy aurora]

are a lot of the veteran players complaining that this rundown is too easy?

[ruby wasp]

I'd say the game is more accessible in general

[kind trail]

the game is definetly easier

[ruby wasp]

But yeah it is easier

[raven linden]

I haven't heard many other opinions, but it's definitely a massive step easier from R5

[ruby wasp]

that's easily noticeable in A & B tiers

[kind trail]

at least, for high

[raven linden]

True

[ruby wasp]

Then they start to add fogs

[woeful kiln]

all levels difficulty got turned down a notch but

[mossy aurora]

i only played since r5, but i heard some players say r3 was omega hard compared to r6

[woeful kiln]

extreme and overload is Very hard now

[ruby wasp]

and everything become artificially hard
