Thank you!

[dapper nimbus]

Take your time, there's usually no need to rush in and kill a scout. Watch for nearby enemies and keep low, your flashlight will also make the scout deploy it's tentacles. I think the scout still doesn't bend it's head down for non-host players, so there's that.

[woeful kiln]

If you gonna kill a scout just go for it and don't hesitate

No need to know all mechanic

Just go for it

[lilac fulcrum]

nope

[dapper nimbus]

Run at the scout and scream "BAAATMAAAAAN" like I do.

😄

[floral pecan]

@zealous pulsar first, understand how they work (lots of yt videos for it)
A few methods are

• stand still in his path and let him walk to you, then bonk him
• sprint in his face when the tentacles are fully extended, most risky one as you have like 1 second from when he starts retracting them and go invunerable
• walk to him, he will hear you when close and go down to leave the feelers. If you are right next to it, you can crouch and the feelers will go above you, free bonk

I would always avoid methord n.2. 1 is the easiest, 3 prob most efficient

[tender rivet]

Tried it just now, I'm still having issues, might be something else as the sound also pauses when the frames stutter. I noticed that also my cpu cores are relatively cool for some reason despite playing this game on high as if they're not being utilised properly

[woeful kiln]

I always do 2

[zealous pulsar]

Yea most of the videos i watch, they do 2 lool

Thanks for the replies!

[woeful kiln]

If you get used to doing method 2 when some random sleeper wake up you'll be able to save your team

[floral pecan]

Yea 2 is the fastest if you can do it

Only thing is i believe the feelers must be fully extended to have enough time

Personally i've always done 1 so i am not sure

[woeful kiln]

Nah

Always the same time

[zealous pulsar]

C1 was terrifying when opening that final door

[floral pecan]

Ah, i guess it's just a yolo in that case

[zealous pulsar]

Scouts still haunt me

[woeful kiln]

On C1 I woke all the scouts 😎

[floral pecan]

I killed 4.. then my teammate failed the last one

[zealous pulsar]

On my first run, i was only able to make it past the first data cube but on my second run, i was able to finish it

Power of 3 sentries and a mine deployer

[floral pecan]

I only knew how to do method n.1 doh. That was mostly the only one used in R1/R2 (where i have my experience)

Now i am learning n.2 and 3

[zealous pulsar]

I used to run 2 mine deployer and 2 sentry with my bots but there’s a bug where the bots start to stack mines in a single place

So i became the sole mine deployer

[woeful kiln]

I've never ever dropped down with 2 mine deployers

Kinda useless

I'd rather have a bio

[zealous pulsar]

I’d rather just keep my bots with sentries and me having to rotate between c-foam, mine or bio

D1 will be an experience

[woeful kiln]

Nah if you want to have some REAL experience go for D3 pe

[frozen garden]

My bot refused to place mines, just saying "I'm on it" but never doing it.

[zealous pulsar]

Gotta clear D1 first lool

[woeful kiln]

I haven't done D1 yet lol

I beat B1 yesterday

[zealous pulsar]

I haven’t tried matchmaking or inviting friends ever since they released R6

Purely just on the solo bots grind

[woeful kiln]

This rundown a bit easy can't wait for the 5 E levels

[zealous pulsar]

I tried C2 in hopes of finding that giant transportable fog repeller

Ended up just hugging the walls and embracing the infection

[woeful kiln]

Fog diving 😎

[zealous pulsar]

I’m just trying to get my character more drippy🥵

[frozen garden]

Wish you could just hold on to or pick up fog repellers and keep re-using them for more than just one spot

[zealous pulsar]

My first B2 run, i was getting super annoyed only finding fog repellers only to take them for granted while doing alarm doors in the bulkhead room

[woeful kiln]

My first D3 run i was super lost.

Couldn't find any fog repellers

[floral pecan]

My first C1 was with ppl who couldn't aim too well

Tried last part like 4 times but nah

Got it yesterday w/o checkpoint. Had a team without too much coms but good players who knew how to hold their own

[zealous pulsar]

That final part gave me a heart attack but luckily i was prepared and set up everything at the top. I was thinking whether or not to setup in that room but good thing i did.

[woeful kiln]

Turtle scan best scan

[zealous pulsar]

Luckily i only took 2 attempts. First attempt i only got to the first cube then the second run i finished it blind

[floral pecan]

I picked up a hel gun second try

That thing worked wonders

[woeful kiln]

When I think about it all my attempts I did with my team were first tries

[zealous pulsar]

I only started watching gtfo R6 runs after completing C1 because i was scared of doing D1

[woeful kiln]

Do D1 it's not too hard

[zealous pulsar]

I’ll get to it in a couple of hours, gotta get some shuteye

[woeful kiln]

I bet you can beat it first try

[zealous pulsar]

Looks fun from what i watched but we’ll see how the bots will hold up

Hopefully i can stay true to clearing R6 solo with bots

[knotty mauve]

you should be able to, ive done d3 and d4 with bots. hardest one has to be C3 PE

[distant ice]

Is there a rough outline or eta of changes

[lilac fulcrum]

Nothing specific I can share, but goal is sooner than later.

[distant ice]

Alright then, keep your secrets

[lilac fulcrum]

[idle swallow]

i heard that you can activate the ventilation system in b2 is this correct ?

[loud granite]

not that i know of, and for the most part u wouldnt really need it

[loud granite]

how much faster do the sleepers who naruto run actually go compared to a normal sleeper

[distant ice]

They're all faster than the player

Didn't keep track of their speed since like R3

[ruby wasp]

you mean ||chargers|| ?

oh nvm

i forgot there were crawling sleepers

😔

[elder heron]

godam whats the password to the merch store

[ruby wasp]

#game-announcements iirc

@elder heron#game-announcements message

[elder heron]

holy shit thank u

[jagged summit]

lmao I never realised before but yeah they do naruto run

[meager saddle]

When im playing a game with bots and have to go afk can i just stay in an empty room?

[vestal flame]

Yes

[distant ice]

R7 random panic events are added

[meager saddle]

https://tenor.com/view/re-life-anime-question-confused-gif-13129993

[daring fog]

when will we ever get a matchmaking option to opt out of SPECIFIC missions? is it that hard of a demand? after you already made matchmaking lobbies a russian ruollete if you even stay in the first team you ready´d up for

[woeful kiln]

Chance of falling on the ground when at 180 pulse

[woeful kiln]

You can already do that since matchmaking got added

[daring fog]

nope

you can for tiers

[woeful kiln]

Unless you mean side objectives

[daring fog]

not singular excluded missions

[woeful kiln]

Did they remove specific mission in r6?????

[daring fog]

they didnt have it since r4

[woeful kiln]

Matchmaking got added in r5 right?

[daring fog]

they have for specific mission

but not EXCEPT specific missions

which is what i wrote

[woeful kiln]

Are you talking about side objective

Pretty sure you can matchmake for C3 or D4 specifically

[daring fog]

i am talking about being able to filter for all missions except say a1

[woeful kiln]

Oh

Well you can't :)

[daring fog]

what is so hard in understanding OPT OUT????

[woeful kiln]

What is so hard in choosing a level to do?

[daring fog]

they rather include ||cthulu|| then something we want since matchmaking was introduced

that enough of us would gladly play any map except a1

which we cant match up for

[hoary siren]

people get so mad over such small things

if the map comes up just... leave?

[daring fog]

which people then complain about again

[hoary siren]

then pick your battle

[woeful kiln]

Just use LFG then 😎

[daring fog]

oh right forgot this server was against actively using the matchmaking tool the devs put in the game my bad

[hoary siren]

not actively against it. just prefer the discord

people in here are usually better

but I will use mm time to time

[inland nimbus]

Are boosters shared when used or is it only active for whomever uses it ?

[craggy pier]

The second one

[distant ice]

depends, some can help the whole team

[craggy pier]

Of course stuff like supply efficiency works on teammates

As along as the one carrying the supply has the booster

[eager plank]

does checkpoint on C2 work? (we're doing extreme)
I'm asking since there are rumours about extraction requiring two highsec crates when using checkpoint

[distant ice]

it doesn't work if you abandon extreme after checkpoint

[finite plinth]

it's bugged where the terminal to lower fog doesn't work and extraction doesn't as well

[distant ice]

afaik at least

[earnest pulsar]

sorry, I just saw this but you can increase cpu culling workload in advanced graphics as well. You said that you had a 3060 I think so I wouldn't turn it up too high but it would also depend on your processor, so just go up one level and see how it works

[eager plank]

well that seems to be fixed since we haven't had any issues with using the command in terminal, but Idk about extraction.

[tropic ferry]

It’s inconsistent, sometimes its fine sometimes it doesnt work

[eager plank]

oh alright, thanks for help
this time it worked for us and we finished level successfully

[untold iris]

Is there a particular reason we can't just ping anything our mouse is pointed at?

Not sure if that's intentional or that the ping system was just made in a weird way

[distant ice]

been like that since the start, definitely intentional

[untold iris]

drawing on the map is good but the map isn't super detailed and won't show multiple floors so when i'm talking strategy to my friend I really wish I could just ping a specific spot

instead of having to run over to a spot and tell him "right here" or "up there"

the only reason I could see it as intentional is to stop ping spam or something....

but it's still obnoxious not being able to ping anything i see

[neon gust]

You can ping doors tho

[untold iris]

doors are not the only thing I want to ping

[neon gust]

also they probably want to promote more conversation

[untold iris]

actually I guess one of the bigger reasons would be so you can't ping enemies in the dark

[neon gust]

In older footage you could see them pinging

enemies without biotracker

kinda broken if you ask me

[distant ice]

meh

maybe a bit for blind pinging of shadows

[untold iris]

but that's the issue. You can't explain everything in conversation. it's mostly a problem because the maps aren't detailed. A room on the map will appear as one big square room but in reality it has multiple levels with multiple obstacles in the way so if we're talking strategy it would be easier to ping things instead of having to walk over to an area or explain "right behind this corner desk" or something

[distant ice]

but that's about it

[untold iris]

but yeah I can see why they wouldn't want pinging because of enemies in the shadow

[neon gust]

Also you could probably ping a lot of invisible walls lel

[distant ice]

hahayes

[neon gust]

I mean what big brain strategy you doing so much lmao

put sentry on the door facing west 200

i say a sentence and its cohesive and precise

[untold iris]

it's not about a big brain strategy it's just about making things quicker instead of having to overexplain stuff to get the point across

[neon gust]

If your overexplaining something then its not really a good strategy

[woeful kiln]

You don't have to overexplain when there are 7 shadows

Most of the time we talking about kinds of fromages instead of setting up giant kills

We just go

[neon gust]

One thing i learn in this game from playing pubs its that the best setups are the more simple ones

everytime i had a teammate over-strategizing something i know damn well it fucking sucks

we either die

[woeful kiln]

+you can just swipe everything with spear anyway lol

[neon gust]

or overprepare to much to the point it waste resources

[woeful kiln]

If you need more than 30 seconds to explain it's likely gonna be a waste of time

[distant ice]

@floral pecan @woeful kiln https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LK5sPA-2Guk said i would so i did
got some rust on me but it also feels like shooter projectiles changed, they feel more like scout projectiles now

[woeful kiln]

Ty! I'll check it ok out right now

[neon gust]

Uh they remove the sound indicator

[distant ice]

the close whoosh? yeah

[neon gust]

really wack

[woeful kiln]

Sad:(

[distant ice]

no clue why

[neon gust]

devs please

remove my dash and now this

thats not even for kiting!

[distant ice]

yeah i was actually practicing solo knifing a giant and forgot dodge doesn't work

needless to say bonk

i almost killed him tho, died from one revolver shot after i got bonked and said fuck you too

will try again when back damage isn't wack anymore

[neon gust]

i hopew next patch they go and say, oop we didnt mean to remove the dash

[distant ice]

well they definitely didn't, why tf would you

it's most likely a side-effect of slide nerf

[neon gust]

If you look at the fucking patchnotes they label sentry back damage as a bug

:]

[distant ice]

yeah wack

[neon gust]

it isnt

[distant ice]

but it makes sense i guess

[hoary siren]

it is a bug lmao

[distant ice]

if back damage exist you're basically forced to use it

[hoary siren]

it wasnt intended

[distant ice]

they never said so tho

back in R2 they just nerfed it

then they brought it back

[woeful kiln]

Mines back damage 😎

[neon gust]

you had 2 years to literally just disable in a text notepad

[distant ice]

and then a fkn year later "oh we decided that was a bug btw"

[woeful kiln]

Did mine have back damage?

[distant ice]

no

they could hs tho

[woeful kiln]

Sad

[hoary siren]

do u not know how game design works

[neon gust]

Do you know how 10cc works?

lmao

[wise thicket]

Yo no way it’s the clown emoji

[hoary siren]

very effective

[neon gust]

Its not even a game design problem ya dingus

Its the transparency of how they label things

things that they dont like they just call them bugs

[hoary siren]

dingus? transparity?

[neon gust]

"shotgun sentry got a damage multi per person in lobby"

that wasnt a bug

nor that thing existed

shotgun sentry was jusst busted

but for some reason they put it as a bug instead of put it in the weapons & balance tweaks

so no

whatever your saying its just wrong

[spark wolf]

they will make the spear poopy and not bring back dash yet

👍

[sharp steppe]

Yo guys
Is there a mechanic or sytstem in the game that influence bots what ressource pack they pick up or what concumables and how do i force bots do give me or my teammate 1 charge of a ressource pack? Do they only give it when its needed? Can someone explain me the mechanic if its exist? I would be very thankfull

[spark wolf]

no more fun

[neon gust]

You cna only tell them to pick up objective items and trhats pretty much it

[vestal flame]

It seems bots don’t like to pick up stuff you’ve already picked up

[neon gust]

apparently if both human players have a resources/consumables then bots will automatically go and pick resources and consumables if your further away than 10m from the resources

[sharp steppe]

And how do i force them to give me a ressource pack?

[distant ice]

they also mentioned fixing 2 bugs where they don't do that

[sharp steppe]

Or would they do that on their own if its needed

[neon gust]

theres a treshhold in wich they will give you whatever resource

[sharp steppe]

But then they need to bring mechanic where you can instruct the bots which consumable or ressource pack they should pick up

With command sytsem

That would be very helpfull

[tough ether]

personally i like it when Dauda picks up Glow sticks and i have to command him to throw all 12 in the hopes he picks up something more useful

[distant ice]

.

asked about the same thing, here's the response

[shy jungle]

Has anyone tried testing what loadouts work better with bots? It seems like they try to conserve a lot of ammo sometimes so a stronger/less ammo gun seems better, but other time it looks as if they mag dump any sleeper that enters their vision

[untold iris]

What's the actual long term goal with this game. looked through the official website. The rundown system doesn't seem sustainable long term if they apparently are never going to re-release any previous rundowns.

[distant ice]

they're working towards making new rundown creation as easy as possible

[floral pecan]

Thanks

[sharp steppe]

Thx

[lilac fulcrum]

Me when I get pinged

oh hello hi

[viscid wolf]

haii doc

[faint flame]

hai

[mossy aurora]

lmao why was this a thing?

[viscid wolf]

random bug

it got patched and forgotten pretty fast

[slate harness]

i think the long term is to just have a constantly moving forward game, adding enemies, tools, weapons and gameplay elements

basically a game that is different 1 year from now and then different a year after that, etc...

[fickle trellis]

Is the spear swiping a feature or a bug?

[slate harness]

devs said bug

at least that's the last thing I read on that

[fickle trellis]

Bummer lol

[untold iris]

what's the real difference between the burst sentry and the sniper sentry? seem to more or less do the same thing

[hasty terrace]

Burst sentry shoots many ennemies and does moderate dmg with each shot, sniper sentries shots fewer shots that are much stronger

[distant ice]

sniper huge shot damage, high shot delay, long range

burst fires a lot faster, lower range, lower damage

[hasty terrace]

Sniper sentry is very useful when you're dealing with hybrids or giants

[woeful kiln]

ye kills giants in about 2 shots

[hasty terrace]

Burst is usually more useful when you have waves of ennemies

[shrewd dirge]

Sniper 1 shot hybrid?

Sentry

[woeful kiln]

i don't think so 😔

[hasty terrace]

Doubt so too, unless it got hella buffed 😂

[spark wolf]

they increased the damage

but maybe not by that much

[distant ice]

wesley inserting his political opinions in name

[hasty terrace]

Lmao

[fickle trellis]

Two shot for hybrids on sniper turret, like 90% sure I've had one shoot a hybrid

[shrewd dirge]

Quick, before the spear nerf, get a double scout kill with spear

[hasty terrace]

Madlad

[untold iris]

I see

good to know

I will probably be using burst sentry over sniper then

since it's probably better for someone else to have an actual sniper on them to deal with the big targets

than a sentry that could waste precious ammo on lower value targets

depends on the mission tho

[hasty terrace]

You'll figure it out as you go :p

[shrewd dirge]

C2 extr id def take some ssentrys

[hasty terrace]

Meh not really

Just bring scatterguns and go pew pew

[untold iris]

haven't had the chance to use it yet but what's the pro of mines vs the sentry tool?

[hasty terrace]

Oh my dear child

[shrewd dirge]

Good synergy with cfoam

Also

[untold iris]

true

makes sense

[shrewd dirge]

Knowledge issue

[hasty terrace]

There is no "vs", mines are a must

Sentry is just a luxury

Using mines and cfoam properly is key to clearing alarms

[shrewd dirge]

Cfoam got that big buff this patch too

[hasty terrace]

It got both buffed and nerfed

Cfoam got buffed on doors and nerfed on ground/ennemies

[shrewd dirge]

Did they fix ladders?

[untold iris]

yeah it makes sense. i'm playing with a friend and 2 bots and I thought it'd be easier to have the bots use sentries but the problem we run into is not knowing which doors the wave is gonna come from lol but yeah thinking about it now, cfoaming the doors and then setting up mines when you can actually determine where they're add definitely seems better than hoping you have the right sentry setup then quickly having to pick them up and replace them if you fuck up

[shrewd dirge]

Just observe the 2 room rule

No need to guess

[hasty terrace]

If you use cfoam and mines properly you'll barely have to fight during alarms

Ennemies spawn 2 rooms away

But hey, trial and error works too

Just mine and cfoam all the doors in the room you're in, that's usually the way to go

[slate harness]

could you explain that rule?

[viscid wolf]

they will spawn two rooms away

[hasty terrace]

You can re-cfoam doors during the fight, that prevents them from breaking the door until the scans are over

[hasty terrace]

They always spawn 2 rooms away

[viscid wolf]

each sector of a zone counts as one room

so if you go to your map you can draw a 0 1 and 2 depending on how far the rooms are from you

[slate harness]

i see

[shrewd dirge]

Your room is zero. Any room you traverse a zone letters is +1.
Anything 2 is where they could spawn

[slate harness]

and then they run for the closest door?

[viscid wolf]

yes

wait no

[hasty terrace]

No, they take the path of least resistance

[viscid wolf]

not least resistance

[slate harness]

shortest path?

[shrewd dirge]

Addn: uplinks spawn within same zone always.

[hasty terrace]

If there's a path to you with no door they'll take that

[slate harness]

i see

[viscid wolf]

the path that takes the least time to get to you

[hasty terrace]

Otherwise they'll take shortest path

[slate harness]

alright, thank you

[hasty terrace]

What I said is a bit of an oversimplification but its the gist of it

[viscid wolf]

if it takes X time to get to the player, a door in between will add ~5 seconds

then between the multiple routes they will choose the shortest

[shrewd dirge]

If every room is a zero, enemies will spawn on top of you.

[slate harness]

it's all good, thank you for explaining it at all. i don't want to get TOO min-max with the game just yet, just wanted a general idea

[viscid wolf]

thats why opening a door can sometimes cause them to take a longer path

and can funnel them

[hasty terrace]

Yep that's what I thought 😄

[hasty terrace]

They're beginners they should probably just focus on the basics for now haha

[viscid wolf]

ah whoops

[proven panther]

Hey, does anyone know how to turn off the audio of Woods? Every time I look at a sleeper he calls it out

[viscid wolf]

there might be a voice over slider in settings but you cannot turn a specific one of them off

why would you turn it off though

[proven panther]

I just don't want to hear him anymore, I'm doing a solo run and it's getting pretty annoying

[hoary siren]

yeah i turned em off too

[proven panther]

And I do mean every time I look at one

How did you do it? I've tried different audio sliders but he still talks

[hoary siren]

its the one at the bottom i think

dialog

[proven panther]

It's not doing it, that was the first one I tried

[hoary siren]

its the only one that turns down in game dialog mate

[proven panther]

Should I not be setting it to 0 then?

[hoary siren]

🤷idk what to tell u man, try relaunching the game

[proven panther]

Yeah, I'll give it a try

Thanks

[earnest pulsar]

are bots affected by stamina

[hoary siren]

yes

[earnest pulsar]

good to know

apparently good and know aren't in the default discord dictionary

[shrewd dirge]

Goodest and knownpilled

[floral pecan]

@proven panther every single one doesn't sound right..

Perhaps a bug?

[proven panther]

I don't really know

I would assume it is with how surprised he sounds every time

[floral pecan]

@lilac fulcrum sorry for the ping, mind to take a look at that? He literally means every single time, may be a bug

[earnest pulsar]

I'm pretty sure that that bug happens when whoever is woods leaves mid game and then a different person joins

[floral pecan]

Mmh he said he was doing a solo run

[proven panther]

I downloaded the game last night and just started playing a few hours ago only doing a solo run

[floral pecan]

Did restarting the game fix it?

[proven panther]

No

He's still very chatty

[hoary siren]

skill issue

😂

[floral pecan]

And can't even turn it down from options? That's odd

[earnest pulsar]

did you play with other people first?

[proven panther]

Nope

Not even bots

[earnest pulsar]

try restarting and then maybe play a game as not the host, so as a different character, and that might fix it

[proven panther]

You mean like joining a public game?

[earnest pulsar]

because I'm pretty sure that woods is the only one that has those extremely warry voice lines

yes

[proven panther]

I can give it a try

[earnest pulsar]

there's #lfg-beginners

[hoary siren]

.t lfg

[uneven gulch]

Hello! If you are unaware, we have Looking For Group (LFG) channels to help users group up and play the game. They are located here: #lfg-north-america / #lfg-latin-america / #lfg-eastern-europe / #lfg-western-europe / #lfg-asia / #lfg-oceania / #lfg-africa / #lfg-beginners.

If you are unsure of how to create or join a lobby, please see the instructions here: #how-to-matchmake.

[earnest pulsar]

and there's plenty of people willing to teach newer players

[proven panther]

I've done a fair bit of research into the game as well as watching people play it themselves

[earnest pulsar]

so you could learn from the experience of others and possibly fix the bug you currently have

[proven panther]

The solo run is a challenge for myself😄

[earnest pulsar]

yeah but watching people play the game and actually playing the game are 2 very different things

[proven panther]

mhm thats very true

[floral pecan]

With 55hrs i MAY manage A1 solo..

I'd not advise solo for a new player

[proven panther]

That's what im shooting for

[earnest pulsar]

I almost solo'd A1 my first and only try because I just dropped in to change my settings and then was just being reckless then actually started trying once I got to the class 3 but I decided to be an idiot

[hoary siren]

😂

on day 1 of release i nearly was the 1st to solo but died at 50% extraction

then someone who had early access to 1.0 beat me

[floral pecan]

I soloed good old R1A1

[earnest pulsar]

I long kited away and then I came back, finished the last 2 circles and then I heard them hitting a door but I didn't mine it because I thought it was only like 3 but it was more like 17

[floral pecan]

God it was painfull with like 20hrs

[earnest pulsar]

and the last 2 circles were already about 70% each

[hoary siren]

F

[floral pecan]

This A1 feels a lot easier compared to first rundowns doh

[hoary siren]

it is

[earnest pulsar]

oh yeah

[hoary siren]

its meant to be

[earnest pulsar]

I also wasted a cfoam nade for the class 2 diminished because I forgot that the only circle only goes 4 meters away at most

[hoary siren]

F

yeah for the first door you really only need mines

and cfoam on the spawn door

then youre basically clear

[earnest pulsar]

well I could've done it without wasting the foam and I placed like 4 mines but I could have survived only placing like 2

[hoary siren]

damn lmao

yeah you only need 2

[earnest pulsar]

you want to hear something sad?

[hoary siren]

sure

[earnest pulsar]

I was soloing R5B1, the one that starts with the huge room, killed both scouts successfully, cleared the entire zone, successfully COMPLETED the class 4 alarm, ran into the zone that had the key and got aim punched by 2 shooters so I was 2 bullets away from staggering the giant that killed me with a tongue

[hoary siren]

F

[floral pecan]

That's painfull to hear

[earnest pulsar]

then about a week or 2 later I tried again, didn't die, and then alerted one of the scouts in the charger room even though I headshot it

[floral pecan]

What weapon?

[earnest pulsar]

because the scout bugged and my hammer noclipped through it's head and it counted as a body shot

[floral pecan]

Yeikes

[earnest pulsar]

hammer, there's 2

so the only bragging rights I got was that I completed a class 4 alarm solo but not that I beat the level

[floral pecan]

My biggest brat is completing the last level in R1

Just cause it was a luxury at the time

Goddamn invisible enemies

And big rooms where you die if you fell

[sick jewel]

Can I ask for someone to explain how R6C3 extreme plays out?

[floral pecan]

But that'a about it..

[sick jewel]

Watched a few videos but the uploader doesn't always do the objectives and trusts their team to help out

[earnest pulsar]

whoever answers @sick jewel 's question, you better do it as a spoiler

[floral pecan]

^

[sick jewel]

oh its spoiler, my bad

[earnest pulsar]

no not you

I just want anyone that replies to do ||this||

[sick jewel]

may I ask what the #gtfo-spoiler-chat is used for?

and how it is different from this channel?

[earnest pulsar]

anything that's a spoiler

but especially big stuff like the end of D1

[sick jewel]

ahh, so that is considered spoiler

thank you for your answer~

[floral pecan]

Remember that people that may have questions about A1 come here afterall

So like fresh new to the game

[earnest pulsar]

this channel can be used for anything that is a question and if someone has a question that might be a spoiler, they should double ||

[earnest pulsar]

just a little, for the people that haven't done it yet

[sick jewel]

would it be wise to ask my question in #gtfo-spoiler-chat ?

next time around, i'm new to this discord

[earnest pulsar]

because this channel can range from anything about the game mechanics, to how to fix a graphics card problem, to anything that can be connected to gtfo

no, this is the place for questions

[sick jewel]

oooh, so that is how far the scope of this channel goes

[floral pecan]

It is fine to ask here as well, i just suggest to use the spoilers tag if something is.. a potential spoiler

[earnest pulsar]

maybe just mark the level and objectives as spoilers so anyone knows to do that to the response

[floral pecan]

|| like this || example

[sick jewel]

||like this?||

[earnest pulsar]

if you had a question about anything for your pc, it could go here

or the game

or the tiniest little detail

if you can tie even the smallest thread to GTFO and it's a question, it goes here

[earnest pulsar]

so maybe put it like this :
Can I ask for someone to explain how ||R6C3 extreme|| plays out?

[sick jewel]

that is a good idea, thank you

[minor fractal]

||It's just a gen cluster with a cell and turbine in the zone, as well as a lot of ammo. You need to go to two other zones behind the checkpoint door to get two more cells, and these zones only open if you open extreme first.||

[ruby wasp]

Do you know if you have to ||place the cell of the extreme zone in the generator|| for the other doors to open ?

[minor fractal]

||It's only tied to opening extreme, so you just need the bulkhead key, do the DC scan, open the door. You should go in there for ammo, though, it makes things a lot easier unless you have like 10 uses of ammo already.||

[ruby wasp]

m'k

[twin hamlet]

Will there eventually be a way to obtain all the cosmetics, because as of now it doesn't seem like you can get all of them?

[calm dome]

can you guys suggest any C1 loadouts?

[earnest pulsar]

probably when rundown 7 comes out or if they release an extension for the current rundown which they probably are going to because I don't think that they would ad clothing customization and then make it so you can't get all of them from the one rundown but when they release R7 I expect that there will be more apparel options thrown into the pool.

[earnest pulsar]

for tools: bio, mines, and 2 sentries as long as neither is a sniper

[calm dome]

you sure about the sniper? we found it to be useless in C1

rundown 6

[earnest pulsar]

||and when you get to the pit, #1 you should at least bring one burst sentry, and you can place a burst sentry on some boxes one floor down facing the middle of the pit and it will kill 99% of the flying triangles and also some strikers that run past on the opposing side||

[calm dome]

we know that we need something to clear waves on the last security

[earnest pulsar]

thats what I said

don't bring a sniper sentry

[calm dome]

oh yeah my mistake

what about weapons

[earnest pulsar]

assault rifle is pretty good because it's ammo efficient

[covert apex]

through extensions or new rundowns most likely

or DLC packs

[earnest pulsar]

and basically any other ammo efficient weapons

HEL gun is pretty good because of the penetration

[covert apex]

feels like they've purposely held off on releasing all of the cosmetics

[calm dome]

@earnest pulsar thanks for the advices we will try C1 again now

[earnest pulsar]

np but one last suggestion is don't bring the heavy assault rifle as a secondary, it does decent damage per shot but the ammo per ammopack use isn't the greatest and ammo does get thin, and also, if you have some bioscan speed boosters, even just a little makes a huge difference like, it makes that last scan easy

and bring all the cfoam grenades from 149 and 150 with you, if there's more than 4, stage them

then save at least 2 for the final ||concrete staircase|| if you don't have bio speed

[twin hamlet]

They said they're never doing DLC or microtransactions I'm pretty sure

*paid dlc

[distant ice]

They did

[earnest pulsar]

and for that I am grateful

wait what

you mean they said that or they made paid dlc

[distant ice]

They did say that

[earnest pulsar]

ok

just making sure

that's what I'm glad of because there's no need to turn a (almost) perfect game into another cash grabbing piece of shit

[ruby wasp]

They initially said that if their economic system wouldn't work well enough, they'd sell cosmetic DLCs

and only cosmetics

that was more than a year ago tho

[distant ice]

"support the devs" packs

[earnest pulsar]

I'd buy a dlc pack that did nothing to the game if something happened that made the devs not financially stable

[ruby wasp]

just offer the game to a friend at this point

[earnest pulsar]

for the devs? I'd donate $420

depending on the severity

[dapper nimbus]

Snatcher dlc when 😔

[regal tinsel]

they should steal ammo from you

[sleek kettle]

Can someone help me understand the Prisoner Apparel Requisition? What do all the "3x 6x 9x all" mean?

[regal tinsel]

every three levels you get a random item

and one for beating everything

[sleek kettle]

ohh so one item after 3, another at 6 and another 9?

[regal tinsel]

ye

[sleek kettle]

and then one more for doing all main levels

and that has to different levels?

[regal tinsel]

I think so, yes

[sleek kettle]

alright thanks for the help!

[dapper nimbus]

And it's always a random item.

[sleek kettle]

yah got that, i've done A1 and B1 and my friends got different things

[distant ice]

Semi random

[dapper nimbus]

Yup! My friends got all the good stuff and I got b a c k p a c k s

😔

[ruby wasp]

i got a bermuda

😳

[sleek kettle]

I got a helmet and some fancy colors

[ruby wasp]

lucky

i got the lemon helmet

😔

[dapper nimbus]

I want the torso that gives you a robot hand

[regal tinsel]

I got hackett's hood and I always play dauda

[dapper nimbus]

Dauda with Hackett drip

[regal tinsel]

my friend is so mad at me lmao

[calm dome]

can you 1shot spaghettiheads with a hammer?

[regal tinsel]

yes

also with spear

[calm dome]

i suppose i just missed then

[dapper nimbus]

Fully charged

[regal tinsel]

I think bat can if you hit them in the back of the head, but not to the front

[regal tinsel]

you have to aim high to avoid the neck/ arms

[calm dome]

does it matter if from the front or the back?

[dapper nimbus]

No, but the bat and knife might require you to hit the back of the head.

I'm unsure.

[regal tinsel]

I don't know if knife can kill scouts at all

[ruby horizon]

knife can kill scout but it must be full charge back of the head I think

[tiny aspen]

what does the "completed: [1,-,-,-]" mean?

[regal tinsel]

you beat the level once, and it doesn't have any optional objectives to do

[tiny aspen]

ah gotcha, ty

[untold iris]

haven't had it happen yet but if I get disconnected from a game am I able to rejoin the same match?

[tropic ferry]

If you arent using in game matchmaking, yes

[brazen cargo]

Yo anyone know what to do about error this command only has one use. command has already been called?

[flat rock]

Did you use a checkpoint

[brazen cargo]

YEs

[flat rock]

Restart the level

[brazen cargo]

your kidding

[flat rock]

It's the only way to use the code again from my experience

Checkpoints bug the terminal codes out and only allow them to have one use

It happens regularly on C2

[brazen cargo]

That sucks

[flat rock]

Yep it does

[lilac fulcrum]

we're hoping to get that fixed asap, it's high on our list

[flat rock]

I would imagine so

D0c did you my clip of me falling through the floor as host on D3?

[brazen cargo]

Its all good part of the game right,

[flat rock]

I'm glad you brought back my favorite bug from R4

[shrewd dirge]

cant deadstop in air if there is no reason to jump

[viscid wolf]

when tap strafe in gtfo

[shrewd dirge]

tfw strafe feels so much slower now

[viscid wolf]

crouch sliding no longer exists pain

[flat rock]

It still sorta exists, just doesn't give speed anymore

From what I've noticed I don't gain stam as quickly if I slide around

Possibly sliding allows for brief recovering of stam

[misty crest]

So I've been trying to beat B1 (took 5 in-game hours to get to it finally while doing solo)
And I was wondering what the syringes do. I seen 2 or 3 different kinds and have no idea what benefits each give.

[lilac fulcrum]

.t syringe

[uneven gulch]

What each syringe does: The red one gives you health, but also infection, the yellow/green one buffs your melee for short time, also gives you infection.

[flat rock]

Sorta sad we don't have more of those ngl

[misty crest]

What does infection do to you?
Game might need a guidebook tab that goes over terms for the game as well as telling us various weapon values

[calm dome]

what exactly does "C-Foam Portion [+40%]" do?
does it last longer or what

[flat rock]

Iirc just starts you with more foam

[flat rock]

Infection reduces maximum hp

You can overheal, but you will lose hp to match your current infection level

[calm dome]

so it has nothing to do with the foam nades and is just good for the foam launcher

[flat rock]

From what I understand yes

[calm dome]

alright ty

[flat rock]

They may have changed it from R5 to now, but that was how it worked iirc before

[lilac fulcrum]

don't we tell you what it does if you hover over it?

[spark wolf]

yes

[calm dome]

it says it renders more foam blobs from ammo

[flat rock]

I don't have one so I can't check thar

That*

[calm dome]

so it might make it more efficient i guess

but not stronger

[flat rock]

It does both essentially

More foam makes it stronger since it can reinforce longer on less foam

[spark wolf]

+100% means you shoot 24 blobs at the cost of 12

there's some rounding thing happening per charge

so shooting one blob per charge may screw you over unless changed

[calm dome]

ok next question, can i "waste" blobs on reinforced walls? for example you can put 12 on a wall at max and if i try to palce 24 on the wall, the other 12 are wasted

[spark wolf]

yes

and max is 9

[calm dome]

ok good 2 know ty

[spark wolf]

you're already wasting with 12

[knotty mauve]

now tell them how to do 9

[spark wolf]

ok

time it

get a macro

never time it again

[flat rock]

Ok so I started blastin

[full fog]

has anyone else got an issue where a player cant reconnect to the lobby if they got dc'd?

[viscid wolf]

it shouldn't be happening

do you know what could have caused the issue?

[spark wolf]

maybe the privacy settings changed

host could check

if the slots allow players still

[modern atlas]

is there any way to order bots to kill mobs stealth? I've been playing with a friend and we cant stealth kill giants cause the other 2 bots are not helping us

[full fog]

had all the slots to players only

then while testing, changed his slot to players+ bots

and dauda wouldnt even spawn

[spark wolf]

did you use a checkpoint in the run

[full fog]

ye it happened after dying and respawning

[spark wolf]

[full fog]

at reactor checkpoint

f

[spark wolf]

might be it

[modern atlas]

plis

[flat rock]

Just hope they start hammering things when you're clearing quiet

Devs tried letting you sync them up I guess, they didn't like how it felt

Something like that

I know they tried it and then got rid of it

Probably was too strong

[warm cosmos]

In B2 for the secondary OBJ how do you do the uplinks on the terminals?

[topaz anvil]

uplink_connect <ip address>

uplink_verify <word>

[vital sierra]

when you dc, you're still "connect" to the game, you will need to wait until "you" DCed out of that lobby

This message is broad you by the guy who always lagging and dcing

[timber kraken]

does knife only 1 hit scouts if you're at the back of the head?

[ruby wasp]

that's basically it

but the hitbox is kinda weird

[cobalt fossil]

Damage to the back actually changed in 1.0 because it was a bug(aparently)

And its pretty much fucked right now

[knotty mauve]

I think it was just sentries right? So now you can use them in all positions

[versed quartz]

Can you avoid the infection entirely in c3 (the 30 minute speedrun like level)

Or is it like guaranteed

[knotty mauve]

you doing PE?

[ruby wasp]

the infection always appear but you can minimize its influence if you're fast enough

[knotty mauve]

the only parts you should be getting infected is when returning cells to the gen cluster and at extract

[ruby wasp]

as only the extraction area will be under fog if you're fast enough

[versed quartz]

Okay that makes sense

[void badger]

For some reason, I cannot access any terminal, and it doesn't even prompt me with the use terminal interaction UI.

And I legit spent 2 hours with the extreme sector, yet it don't work.

[terse wadi]

Hey, real quick, can the knife kill scouts on a headshot?

I tried it and alerted the damn thing. I wanna use the knife more but if i cant kill scouts i think i might stick with the spear

[knotty mauve]

back of head

[neon gust]

Inconsistently

[knotty mauve]

gtfo moment

[tropic ferry]

They broke back multiplier

[upper surge]

i picked up GTFO a day or two ago and tried the first thing with 3 bots on my team, but i still feel pretty lost... what's the best way to learn the game?

[terse wadi]

Thanks!

[neon gust]

LETS FUCKNG GOOOOOOOOIO

[upper surge]

like i did a ping on something and couldn't see if it did anything at all - no marker on the screen or map

[tropic ferry]

Playing with a group in #lfg-beginners would help a lot

They could explain a bit better

[upper surge]

ok, sounds good - thanks!

[vital sierra]

i found a way to do 100% back multiplier

[tropic ferry]

How

And if it involves dn i will personally come to your house

[flat rock]

Just deez their nuts

Obviously

[vital sierra]

#gtfo-media message

i stand directly at the middle of their model, press W to move up a bit and the game count it as back damage

the back multiplier just become really precise than before

or the damage got nerf to give you 90% damage instead of 100% (to kill charger)

[tropic ferry]

Maybe

[knotty mauve]

you only need 50% back multi with hammer tho

[vital sierra]

charger has more hp than striker

[knotty mauve]

hammer does 20

Charger 30

[vital sierra]

but if that was the case

[knotty mauve]

back hit should do 40

[vital sierra]

then the charge up damage got change

[knotty mauve]

Still 20

[vital sierra]

i also can't 1 tap back headshot striker

[knotty mauve]

Uncharged got changed

4 to 3

[vital sierra]

ye, i think the damage calc for charged up got change

[knotty mauve]

It's still 20 on full

[vital sierra]

ye i have to test more but

that's how i did to kill charger

[earnest pulsar]

@vital sierra @knotty mauve

is this helpful?

[vital sierra]

this should be in #gtfo-spoiler-chat

[earnest pulsar]

why?

[vital sierra]

rule 11

[knotty mauve]

hammer damage bug still in the game btw

All they had to do was increase it to 20.01 like they did with every firearm

[rare leaf]

data mined weapon stats?

[knotty mauve]

Lol

[earnest pulsar]

I'm not trying to be a dick, I'm genuinely asking

[vital sierra]

datamined weapon stats

[knotty mauve]

The last sentence

Literally

[vital sierra]

Data mined weapon stats, enemy health and voice lines available via in-game may be shared but keep it in gtfo-spoiler-chat.

[earnest pulsar]

jesus I need to learn to read

[knotty mauve]

[keen solar]

Probably yeah

[rare leaf]

anyway, what tool setup would people reccomend for D1?

[vital sierra]

you're going to get these hands

[earnest pulsar]

that is the one part that I missed

[vital sierra]

guns

[keen solar]

A brain is a good tool

[vital sierra]

burst sentry is cool

[keen solar]

Joke aside, burst sentry mine and foam are fine

[rare leaf]

so like 2x Burst sentry/Mine/Foam or sumn?

[keen solar]

One sentry is fine

[earnest pulsar]

I'd recommend a sniper rifle, maybe 2, for secondary's

[keen solar]

Just bring a bio

[flat rock]

Foam kinda lost a lot of it's charm this rundown

Not much need for it imo

Enough nades and such around the maps that it doesn't feel necessary to bring

[keen solar]

True

I guess that’s a good thing? Since all we did in past was just perma foaming everything

[flat rock]

Ye

[knotty mauve]

we need a new tool that isn't a sentry

[vestal flame]

melee sentry

[keen solar]

Mappe…

[earnest pulsar]

laser c...

[fierce oracle]

Does anyone know if chargers scouts got changed this rundown? They feel like they stagger a bit on back hits now

But it could be placebo

[earnest pulsar]

@near bramble The checkpoints only apply to your current game, once you exit the mission, you can't go back to them. so if you're doing a mission and you die, you go back to the chekcpoint but if you leave, you have to start from the beginning

[near bramble]

I figured that's what you meant when you said that.

[earnest pulsar]

yeah, but they're still helpful for newer players who need to learn the mechanics and just need practice with one part without having to fully reset everytime

[raw crane]

anybody find a consistent way to dodge the || flying enemies|| shots

[minor fractal]

Are there no ways, or planned ways, in which to unlock more cosmetics?

[warm yew]

New rundown

Eas

[minor fractal]

Yeah, but there'll be more cosmetics, is everyone locked into the small % they roll?

[sudden skiff]

Hey I'm thinking about getting the game. how long are the matches? What is the matchmaking like for a solo player? How is the replay ability?

[gentle oracle]

its not really a game you replay much when you beat the levels

but they add new levels on a sort of seasonal basis

how long a match lasts depends on the skill of the players

newer players can take like 4 times as long to beat a level as experienced ones

also if youre going to play with randoms dont use the in-game matchmaking system use the discord matchmaking

[earnest pulsar]

[depends on the level, anywhere from 10 (if everyone tries somewhat for speed) - 2 1/2 hours
[don't use matchmaking, it suck, but the LFG's are normally pretty populated
[infinite replay ability. When they release a new rundown, it's a whole new set of levels, or you can replay the current levels, if you've beaten them all, and do different challenges with your team to spice things up or just try to get 100 completions on one particular level

10/10 would recommend

and each new rundown is free btw, but once a new rundown comes out, you can't play the previous one

[hasty terrace]

You replay levels if you want to improve and beat harder ones

[gentle oracle]

yeah thats reason enough

but it terms of like gameplay it doesnt in itself have any like "grind" or something like that

and that discourages a lot of people for some reason ._.

[earnest pulsar]

revolver only

[hasty terrace]

I think what discourages a lot of people is the difficulty 😅

But its also what makes this game's charm

[earnest pulsar]

but . . . that's the point of the game

[hasty terrace]

Haha ikr

To each their own :p

Ngl I'm still mourning kiting

[earnest pulsar]

which is why experienced players don't like the checkpoints because then it's not satisfying to complete a level

[earnest pulsar]

what anti kiting measures? I can kite just fine

as long as it's for 20 seconds or less

[hasty terrace]

As an experienced player who completed R5 I love the checkpoints. Repeating a 2-hour section just to learn the difficult part was a pain. Checkpoints make the game so much more enjoyable.

[earnest pulsar]

for learning

[hasty terrace]

Try doing a long kite to finish a scan or revive your team members lmao

[earnest pulsar]

but then don't you go and do a level without checkpoints afterwards?

[hasty terrace]

Yeah, and that's great

[earnest pulsar]

I did when I made a solo attempt, I was able to finish the scan but I decided to not mine the door that was getting hit because I thought it was only like 3

and then 17 cam through and licked my bones clean

[hasty terrace]

Bro, my team spent like 10 hours doing R5C2 PE because we had to waste 2 hours to get to the end of the reactor each time to try a new strategy for the mother.

Not fun

[earnest pulsar]

ok, I was about to say, no spoilers

[hasty terrace]

Thats R5

Not R6

[earnest pulsar]

I loved C2 PE

[hasty terrace]

It was cool. But gosh it could have used a checkpoint

Same for R5D1 ext

[earnest pulsar]

first time past getting all the generators and it was a success

[hasty terrace]

Checkpoints are great even for veterans imo

[earnest pulsar]

for learning the levels

[hasty terrace]

Yeah

And also for the beginners who are learning the game

[earnest pulsar]

I'm sure that's why they added it

[hasty terrace]

Its also neat that you can't use checkpoints to complete the hardest levels in the game with PE

[earnest pulsar]

?

[hasty terrace]

It still leaves the difficulty of clearing a rundown

If you clear extreme and overload but use checkpoints you don't get PE lmao

[earnest pulsar]

seriously? that's awesome

[hasty terrace]

Great stuff

Ikr

[earnest pulsar]

faith restored

[gentle oracle]

i just got a pe completion with a checkpoint though

and it counted

i think that one instance is a bug on C3

if you load a checkpoint C3 just bugs out

and you cant complete extreme

because the objective doesnt register completion

[hasty terrace]

Oh

[gentle oracle]

we should be seeing a patch sometime this week so a lot of these checkpoint related bugs are gonna get fixed

[tropic ferry]

@hasty terrace @earnest pulsar according to doc, you can still get PE

[earnest pulsar]

sad

[tropic ferry]

If i get a chance ill try it

[flat rock]

That's up to whether or not they have figured out what is causing it and how to fix it

They can say they have it on high prio

[tropic ferry]

Too busy not having a skill issue

[flat rock]

But if they don't know how the bug happens and works, they can't fix it

They will likely fix them, but don't assume it'll be next patch

If it does happen, great. If it doesn't, it will happen in the future.

[gentle oracle]

maybe not all of them necessarily

[earnest pulsar]

well now I want ot get C3 PE with a checkpoint so I can hand in the log file

[tropic ferry]

Is it a bug or intended is the question

Probably intended if doc said it

[flat rock]

It should be intended that you can still finish

It would be stupid if you couldn't

The system would be inherently flawed if that were the case

[hasty terrace]

:(

[tropic ferry]

It would make sense for “prisoner efficiency” to not use checkpoints

Not very efficient are they

[flat rock]

The purpose of the checkpoint would be lost, but yes I see the point

[earnest pulsar]

this was in a log file:
19:29:27.142 - DropServerManager: Sleeping for 2 seconds...
19:29:29.139 -

I don't know why I find it so funny

it should still be called extreme if you don't use a checkpoint

[fierce oracle]

Door reroute. Abuse pathing AI

[flat rock]

Just shoot and res

🙂

[hasty terrace]

That's true, that still works. Which is neat but you need a good spot nearby

[fierce oracle]

Memorize every tile in the game

[hasty terrace]

Big brain :p

[flat rock]

Not all that hard when the tiles are reused every 6 tiles 🙂

v a r i a t i o n

[fierce oracle]

Floodways be like

[versed oracle]

Dm if you want cause spoiler but what missions have ||gas?||

[earnest pulsar]

||by gas do you mean infectious fog? B2, C2, D1 but those are the levels I've played. so that leaves C3, D2, D3, and D4 unaccounted for||

[versed oracle]

Damn and I'm on C3 rn

Cause I really hate that shi

[earnest pulsar]

if there's ||a disinfect pack or a station on the map, there's infectious fog||

||or a turbine, or excessive amounts of fog repellers at spawn||

@versed oracle ||if there's spitters, there's fog||

[untold iris]

do you onluy get one chance to do secondary objectives?

we died at a checkpoint and the game isn't letting us progress now

[woeful kiln]

Checkpoints easily break the game

[untold iris]

for the 2nd objective I mean

[woeful kiln]

Let me guess

C2?

[untold iris]

yes

no

b

b2

it says "uplink command only has one use"

[woeful kiln]

Ye that's checkpoints problem has it doesn't completely rollback everything

Only way is to properly finish the level in a single go

Good luck 👍

[earnest pulsar]

what does _MASTER mean in a log file as in what you're supposed to include in bug reports

[fierce oracle]

Master refers to the lobby host

[earnest pulsar]

so why do I have one titled master but I'm not the host?

was it because I was woods? (I think)

[untold iris]

well I think I can complete the level this time. we got COMPLETELY blindsided by the secondary objective. had no time to setup and it took my friend about 2 minutes to figure out what to do at the terminal

[fierce oracle]

If you hosted a lobby ever you will have it named as master

@neon gust I saw that 😘

[earnest pulsar]

wdym

[untold iris]

Bots are working pretty good so far, there's definitely buggy tho. the only thing that pisses me off is them for some reason just refusing to use fog repellers even tho I have the command to make them use them

[fierce oracle]

If you hosted a lobby, the log file will have master in the title

[earnest pulsar]

but I didn't host the lobby

[untold iris]

we only got to the first terminal, I don't remember where the other one is located 😔 or maybe we past the first terminal. It sucks because when we first died we had everything all setup just for the game to tell us "nope!"

[fierce oracle]

Idk then, that’s how it is supposed to work

[earnest pulsar]

could it have been just because I was woods? I don't even remember if I was

[fierce oracle]

Idk

[untold iris]

wdym cfoam portions

oh

haven't used boosters yet

only want to use them for missions I feel are too tough

could definitely use some disinfectant boosters tho

[fierce oracle]

There are infection resistance ones

😔

if you get up to infection resistance you actually get none and ||on R5E1 you would spawn in with no infection||

Anyone experience matchmaking issues when in a premade? I was matchmaking with a friend where I was hosting the lobby (2 of us total) and it'd then put him in a totally separate lobby and myself as well.

[earnest pulsar]

lots of people

just use the lfg channels her on the discord, you'll get better players

[silver haven]

yeah, i'll do that again. I did in the past, friend doesn't use disc tho and seemed like people weren't joining unless we were using a discord channel lol - might of just been the night

[earnest pulsar]

using a discord vc does work more and also the audio quality in game is shit

the question is, why does your friend not use discord?

[silver haven]

couldn't say. he used to - just doesn't anymore for whatever reason.

[earnest pulsar]

you should convince him

[silver haven]

haha, we'll see! I feel like at this point it probably takes active decision making to not use it vs use it since it's sort of the dominant thing nowadays

[earnest pulsar]

worth using it if only for gtfo

but not really, I rarely use discord

only for GTFO and occasionally events on the random discord servers I'm on

[modest hamlet]

is there a way to change the character you're playing?

[woeful kiln]

Yes. By joining the lobby earlier/earlier

yooo games hard ay

tips for B1

get the checkpoint but the second alarm keep fkn me and my mate as we pre much run out of ammo

[floral pecan]

If you run auto of ammo, it probably means you are not using stealth enough @barren badge

[barren badge]

how do you stealth kill the tenticle fkers

sneak melle charged headshot still trigers alarm

[floral pecan]

These are a bit more advanced to melee

First you need to know they get immortal when they scream

[barren badge]

ahah figutre that out

[floral pecan]

Which means if you touch them or touch the feelers they scream

[barren badge]

trial an error

[floral pecan]

With that in mind

The 2 main ways are

• run at them and bonk as fast as possible

You will touch the feeler, but he needs to retract it before it can scream

So you have a small window to get him

That is risky doh unless yoy get good at it

Easiest way would be to wait for it to retract feelers

And then just WALK to him and bonk him

If he releases the feelers when you are close, you can crouch right next to him and the feelers will go above your head and not get you

And never actually touch him or he'll just scream right away

Easier ways are C foam and Sniper

Also only bat and spear kill him in a full charge

Bat only in the back of the head

Knife, forget about it

[lean adder]

Also if you fail a full charge to the head, it usually means you hit its shoulder or it only registered as a back hit

Latency can fk with that

[floral pecan]

^

Getting in the habbit of jumping may help

[lean adder]

And don't be a host if you like killing scouts

Bent over scouts are never fun

[floral pecan]

Unless you do the crouching method i said

In that case you have all the time to aim

[steel valley]

this is wrong

hammer/spear front of head

knife/bat back of head

[floral pecan]

Ur right, i keep calling the sledge bat out of habbit..

Thanks for pointing it out

[lean adder]

Does spear kill only on back multi? I've only stuck to hammer

[floral pecan]

Knife is a bug doh @steel valley

[steel valley]

?

no?

back damage is a mechanic

[floral pecan]

Not that. I heard sometimes it kills sometimes it doesn't

[steel valley]

people bad

[floral pecan]

Not sure if the bug is that it is SUPPOSED to kill him or not

[steel valley]

it is supposed to kill him

but you need a good angle

[floral pecan]

Nah. Probably for the sleeping multi only knife has

May be messing with it

[steel valley]

if you're going for scouts that shouldn't really matter

[floral pecan]

Tecnically no, it's the only thing that comes to mind doh that could cause a bug. The rest is the same as any other melee

Unless the precision multi is messing up but i doubt it's that

[frank salmon]

but the hitreg for back dmg is weird rn

[steel valley]

yep

[frank salmon]

i've watched ppl sit right behind chargers with sledge

[steel valley]

chargers dont like dying

[frank salmon]

and not oneshot

[floral pecan]

Thing is, i didn't hear anyone have issues with the bat on scouts

That's why it confuses me a tad

[steel valley]

bat has higher base damage i think

so you need a less perfect back multi

its a spectrum not a flat buff

[floral pecan]

And yea about chargers i heard multiple saying that

Charged sledge is 20dmg so.. yea

That thing has 30 and x2 back multi

How they live is beyond my understanding

[wooden osprey]

chargers are just immortal endermans dont mind them

[floral pecan]

Wonder if the head thing they have extends to the back in some areas..

[steel valley]

head doesnt negate the back multiplier

you just dont get bonus headshot damage on chargers

so i have no clue why its happening

[barren badge]

yepppp thats me ahaha thanks man great tips! appreciate it

[floral pecan]

Oh yea that i know. I tought they made it so that "thing" negates multipliers, but tbh they probably just coded it to not have any head multiplier

[barren badge]

you have to hit back of head?

[floral pecan]

With knife and bat yes.
Knife is bugged doh, not sure if it is MENT to kill him or not, but i heard ppl say sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't

[steel valley]

chargers just have no head multi, its like hitting a limb

honestly any back of head weapon shouldnt really be used on scouts unless you're already very confident

[distant ice]

Back damage is fucked up rn, don't trust it

Wait for fix

[floral pecan]

It'a cause, in case you are not aware, in this game there are 3 weak spots on almost all enemies
Head and back, and then the back of the head is both multipliers combined @barren badge

[floral pecan]

You got any clue if the knife is ment to kill it or not?

[barren badge]

yea knew that but still though you might be able to head shot them

[distant ice]

Occiput isn't its own weakspot
Back damage isn't a hitbox

[barren badge]

swear we trid back of the ehad but think i had the knife ahah

[distant ice]

Occiput scout? Yeah

[floral pecan]

Then that's probably just a bug when it doesn't

[distant ice]

Again

[distant ice]

.

[barren badge]

ahah

[floral pecan]

Yea that's what i ment. I wondered if the bug was that it was ment to kill them or NOT to kill them

[steel valley]

storm did they nerf hammer uncharged damage or is it just the back damage being weird

[distant ice]

They did nerf it

[steel valley]

shame

[distant ice]

Vets wouldn't even consider knives otherwise probs

[steel valley]

most still wont lol

a weapon specialized in dealing with the easiest type of stealth isn't ever going to be very popular

[distant ice]

Is there a hardest type of stealth

If you have a problem with giants that's what the kids call a skill issue

[floral pecan]

Was about to say the same thing, but i get what @steel valley means

[steel valley]

i'd say its pretty objective that there is harder versions of stealth

whether that is actually any difficulty at all is up to you

[fierce oracle]

R5D1 moment

[distant ice]

It's all the same at some point

If the knife gets that same shit done faster, why tf not

[floral pecan]

Doesn't the knife allow you to clear bigger clusters stealth wise compared to sledge as well?

[distant ice]

We'll see how it goes later on

If you know how clusters work there's almost never one you can't solo anyway

[steel valley]

technically spear allows you clear the fastest for now

until the patch :)

[floral pecan]

I mean correct, evendoh it is bugged atm

[steel valley]

yeah probably isn't long for this world

[floral pecan]

Really? Even up to 5 in a circle?

[distant ice]

That's a you problem

Even with them close by a corner sleeper will only be in a cluster with like 2 others perhaps
