will instakill big bois

#

also shotgun sucks ASS

thick mesa
#

yeah well shotgun's a better, more reliable kill than crap like the machinegun or sniper.

#

also oof, that RNG
put a solid 8 mines down (2 immediate, 6 spaced away) behind the key card door on A1.
2nd phase leads me right to the door, where a big striker's waiting

#

I know it's possible, but I'm gonna say it regardless, it feels impossible without sentry.

upbeat tusk
#

i'm gonna honest with you

#

grabbing shotgun to play solo is not a good idea

#

it's feel like waiting for them to attack you

#

and most likely in B2 the shotgun become trash where there are 0 striker

thick mesa
#

Yeah- this one is just A1

#

maybe I'll bring revolver? Never played with it

#

regardless, I'm not touching machinegun or sniper
bad run-ins with both of em

upbeat tusk
#

revolver in order it to work you need really good aim

#

the machine gun 2 shots striker

thick mesa
#

the wind up bullcrap.

upbeat tusk
#

and less then a mag to kill big striker

#

well

thick mesa
#

exact reason why I don't feel like touching it

upbeat tusk
#

get used to it

thick mesa
#

it's not an "oh crap" weapon, like shotgun is.
saved myself numerous times with shotty

upbeat tusk
#

with a team

#

don't get me wrong

#

i love shotgun

#

but only when i played with a team

thick mesa
#

I've ran shotty on a duo just fine, or even ran out of ammo and just went melee for a key door.
I simply refuse to use that awful, weird excuse for a weapon.
I haven't tried out the assault rifle or, whichever it's named, the primary. SMG's a little off, pistol is good- aim-heavy however. DMR's not good for tight quarters.

#

I think the reason I can't just melee my way out is because in A1, everything is small

upbeat tusk
#

i'm just advice you that solo is gonna be really hard for semi-fire weapon

thick mesa
#

I've done a solo keycard door in.. B2? with melee

#

it might be that.

#

I just really don't want to touch machinegun. It shouldn't be a meta for solo'ing, if that's what it appears to be.
if they're on you, it won't help to sit there useless for a few moments

#

I'm also seeing some inconsistency with mines
two mines, one on each side of the door, not clearing an entire wave after seafoam'd door has been battered on

upbeat tusk
#

few moments?

thick mesa
#

machinegun wind-up time

upbeat tusk
#

it's like 0.5s delay

thick mesa
#

yeah, but it can kill you if you've got more than 1 or 2 on you.

#

those strikers lick pretty quick :^)

upbeat tusk
#

you can shoot?

#

it's a medium range weapon

#

and you waited them to get close?

#

maybe you played shotgun too much

median quarry
#

people don't like the MG because their aim is dogshit

#

if you wanna solo the rundown get better

upbeat tusk
#

he can run with revolver

median quarry
#

its the strongest weapon in the game

upbeat tusk
#

it's as good as MG

thick mesa
#

I can shoot, I sometimes go pistol if I'm feeling conservative.

upbeat tusk
#

but you need like Mcgree

#

revolver 1 shot headshot = dead

#

but if you missed

median quarry
#

yes but you need to hit the shots

#

like the MG..

upbeat tusk
#

you wasted a shot or 2

thick mesa
#

I do oddly find close-quarters a more thrilling way to fight. I've kited rooms just to get better at melee run-and-spank tactics, or corners with shotty

upbeat tusk
#

that's the thing with solo

median quarry
#

there's a reason why 99% of soloers/speedrunners use smg/mg

upbeat tusk
#

there are 20 enemies coming for you

#

and even the guy solo B2 with Biotracker and melee only

#

he always have medipack with him

#

it's not like kiting a whole room is impossible

#

it's just that you need a little luck

median quarry
#

tbh b2 is like 90% melee already

#

cos females

upbeat tusk
#

yes

#

but the only problems is alarm

#

they do spawn striker and titan

#

idk if that solo run have titan or not

thick mesa
#

big strikers and big shooters are problems with solo'ing alarms, for sure

upbeat tusk
#

you can solo melee him already

median quarry
#

i dont think you can get big shooters in A1 alarms

thick mesa
#

maybe I need a break from trying to solo A1, lol
SMG Shotty Mines for the past 3 hrs or so, kinda tired of the attempts atm

#

not in A1 as far as I'm aware

golden yew
#

A1 solo is actually easy

upbeat tusk
#

KEK

#

Begone speedrunner

median quarry
#

says in speedrun chat lel

thick mesa
#

oddly, I think I can solo B1 and B2 fine, A1 is a struggle sometimes even with a semi-decent group 🤔

median quarry
#

easy when you get cfoam exactly when you need it @golden yew

thick mesa
#

tight spaces just suck lol

solar estuary
#

B1 solo is the easiest to solo

golden yew
#

Hey my very first pass at solo I did CFoamless

upbeat tusk
#

maybe it's because you didn't bring MG 🙂

thick mesa
#

screw the MG-

#

:V

golden yew
#

MG is god tier

#

get better

solar estuary
#

MG is the best gun in the game atm

thick mesa
#

lame gun :V big dumb. Shotty for life lol

solar estuary
#

Such massive damage, good ammo, charge up time and slow fire rate help you conserve ammo

golden yew
#

SMG + MG

median quarry
#

best of luck soloing without it

thick mesa
#

I might just do an A1 solo with shotty just out of spite actually

#

just need some RNG

solar estuary
#

Not saying you can't do it

median quarry
#

you can solo A1 with any combination of guns

golden yew
#

I mean, i can do a A1 solo with shotty if you want

solar estuary
#

Just MG makes it a lot easier

median quarry
#

pistol sniper

golden yew
#

its just easier with MG

thick mesa
#

dmr sniper, lel

upbeat tusk
#

if you can killed 2 - 3 striker in 1 shot

#

then it's a good gun to use

median quarry
#

when you time the windup on MG

thick mesa
#

2-3 strikers in 1 shot?

median quarry
#

with each tongue about to hit you

#

bruh

thick mesa
#

excuse???

upbeat tusk
#

but i doubt it

thick mesa
#

I didn't think bullets had pierce

solar estuary
#

The shotgun can damage multiple strikers, but killing them all, not enough damage output

upbeat tusk
#

pump shotgun have 10 pellets each shot

#

i have a shotgun damage stats right here

#

but i;'m not gonna share

#

due to mods are lurking

wet relic
#

Correct

upbeat tusk
#

Aye

#

nothing happening over here

median quarry
#

lmao

thick mesa
#

shhh
it's just the police-

upbeat tusk
#

i've summon the god

thick mesa
#

their vision is based on movement

wet relic
#

Don't expose my secrets Diver

golden yew
#

Hey what if I did in game damage testing then posted that? would that be fair?

upbeat tusk
#

so you can kill 3 striker

thick mesa
#

I enjoy shotty for it's "guaranteed kill" if you get a nice, juicy meatshot

upbeat tusk
#

that's the maximum of 1 shot shotgun can do

thick mesa
#

"Pow-"
1 striker
"Pew-"
2 striker

upbeat tusk
#

the thing is

#

That's a waste

#

i would rather use the Combat Shotgun because Pump Shotgun is too wasteful

thick mesa
#

I swap between the two. Can't decide what I love more.

wet relic
#

The issue with that is that you can't test for certain as things depend on situation, rng and the like. But if you disclose it loud and clear that what you write down is because you tested it and that it's not set in stone as it's just you doing personal research, I don't think we are going to have issues Kenny 👌 let me ask my boss first though to be sure

#

@next trout

upbeat tusk
#

The God's Boss is coming

thick mesa
#

oh this is interesting
are game-data levels of numbers/stats not allowed to be discussed?

upbeat tusk
#

nope

median quarry
#

i thought titans were a guarenteed spawn at start of c2

upbeat tusk
#

got a warning already

thick mesa
#

pure example, hammer does 9999 damage or something alike?

golden yew
#

All my information comes from trial and error. It was only the other day that, thanks to a comment from blooddrunk, that I found a rule for consumables

thick mesa
#

huh.

upbeat tusk
#

Blooddrunk Well yes, but actually no

#

Diver, nope

median quarry
#

first time i seen just normal sleepers

upbeat tusk
#

ye

#

they do spawn small striker

#

first area are RNG

#

i would say Diver

thick mesa
#

interesting. I am a little bit tired after a long day, what's the reasoning for it? Keeping the game fresh or, new, unspoiled perhaps? Most games have wikis on damage values and whatnot

next trout
#

@golden yew what Rav said. As long as the data doesn't come from data mining but in game testing and you disclose your gathering method and that there can be inaccuracies due to the nature then no issues

wet relic
#

Wow, for once in my life I'm not wrong 9_

thick mesa
#

yeah good luck guessing some things when it comes to in-game playtesting.

upbeat tusk
#

pump shotgun will shine in C2

next trout
#

It's more about data mining and that damage values can change due to balancing

thick mesa
#

Gives the mod a couple pats

#

good job!

wet relic
#

Thank you diver <3 I feel appreciated now

thick mesa
#

Oh, no, I was giving them to Doc
heavy wink

#

I'll give MG a try, @ Ethan & Alpha

#

my first two tries I hated it, but it might be necessary to learn.

golden yew
#

MG is love, MG is life

next trout
#

Give Rav pats. She deserves appreciation

thick mesa
#

Might just be playstyle. On... errr- "Four other games" I play very close range, shotty, and whatnot

upbeat tusk
#

to my experience

#

anyone that used shotgun are due to dogshit aim

#

like mine

thick mesa
#

oy :V I have good aim on other games
I just love my big boomstick baby D:

#

Nothing spells an ironic "I love you" than a bright flash, a loud crack, and multiple projectiles at close range

golden yew
#

LUL why are mine all at the top?

#

who made this playlist

#

i never sent the playlist, just my own videos

upbeat tusk
#

Blooddrunk sent this

median quarry
#

i love how my 26 min A1 is in there

#

oh boy

#

i got a scout in the huge spikey room before z95

golden yew
#

yeah scout always spawns in Z94

#

in one of the 3 areas

median quarry
#

i was getting a little worried i hadnt seen one yet

upbeat tusk
#

well Blooddrunk

#

you should go and Battle to the death with those spikey bois next to the scout

#

it's kinda funny

upbeat tusk
#

almost

median quarry
#

i did die @upbeat tusk

golden yew
#

what are you guys doing?

median quarry
#

spike titans and scout not good combo

golden yew
#

I should run some C2 solo's later

median quarry
#

have you done it

golden yew
#

ive died at the end

#

which is typical

median quarry
#

oath

golden yew
#

you get given so many resources

median quarry
#

honestly if the first alarm door is not spikeys

#

i think youre pretty set for z100

golden yew
#

Z94 alarm is easy with mines

median quarry
#

not that one

#

98/99

golden yew
#

ah

median quarry
#

random if you get chargers

#

annoying

golden yew
#

yeah

#

99 sucks

median quarry
#

dunno why i tried to rush to extract yesterday

#

when z95 was still full of mines

#

had the whole map to kite the fuckers

golden yew
#

yeah i only tried it once

#

died 9th scan

#

on z100

median quarry
#

rip

#

map is so fucking big it takes ages to get there

upbeat tusk
#

3 peoples?

median quarry
#

which wr is this

#

isnt it like 3:20

golden yew
#

3:26

#

By the baguettes

median quarry
#

the french are mad men

#

is that the 3:26 best case key and hsu?

golden yew
#

Yes

#

Key d Hsu c

#

Minor player errors

median quarry
#

lol best of luck

golden yew
#

Z52 they broke doors to open them faster

median quarry
#

im trying to imagine having 4 bodies

#

not 1

golden yew
#

I'm used to the solo speedrun grind. But when I'm with other they get irritated way more quickly so can't just go at it again and again

upbeat tusk
#

some of them got lock out

#

so a 3:20 is doable

golden yew
#

@upbeat tusk wanna do some data gathering with me?

upbeat tusk
#

ok

golden yew
#

need to fill out my data sheet on some levels

upbeat tusk
#

f the spawn

median quarry
#

a 9:50 with hsu in the middle of F

#

sad

golden yew
#

Hey you got the Sub 10 tho

median quarry
#

@golden yew why are you running sentry on c2

golden yew
#

???

#

I wasnt

#

i just died second last red circle on D1 Solo due to a mine

#

So tilted

#

had so much health

sullen silo
#

rip

median quarry
#

oh the first attempt you did

#

swapped it out

#

was so confused

golden yew
#

yeah forgot i wasnt in solo loadout

median quarry
#

i was like

#

am i missing something

#

thats big rip also

golden yew
#

So fuckin tilted at that

#

literally kill almost all the shadows

#

with my mines

#

splits were decent too

median quarry
#

how long was the run

golden yew
#

just shy of 2 hours

#

with like 90 minutes trying to get past the first scan

#

that was my first attempt past the scan

median quarry
#

that point you make about it not mattering how many are behind a door when they break it down

#

i feel like the speed of the hits can definitely be faster/slower?

golden yew
#

its usually pretty consistent

median quarry
#

just found 5 cfoam in 49 with key in D i think

#

hsu is C

#

died on 90% because i alerted everything lmao

#

was gonna be a 9:10ish

golden yew
#

oof

blazing flower
#

what is a speed run?

#

exactly?

golden yew
#

completing a level as fast as possible

blazing flower
#

ok

upbeat tusk
#

ok game, stop doing this to me

#

i'm testing A1 and the game gave me 4 C foam from start

woeful shadow
#

lmao then the game's only doing that to you bruh I get 4 glow stick stacks every time

daring terrace
#

don't worry he won't get them again while actually trying to speedrun

#

😄

upbeat tusk
#

THAT'S THE POINT

median quarry
#

You better have got a sub 10 then

#

Skip z51

upbeat tusk
#

nope

#

i was testing

#

running around abit

#

and then 4 c foams

bronze gazelle
#

Rip lol

pseudo tapir
#

I wanna try to get into speed running for a1, what’s the best possible key and hsu spawn?

hexed matrix
#

Key would be right after 1st alarm. Left or right. Quickest and avoids scouts.

#

Door to the left after 1st alarm, possible spawn. Any lockers in hall after 1st alarm door.

And next would be going through the door on the right after 1st alarm. There will be a second door that leads down a hall to the 2nd possible spawn area for scouts. I've found it plenty of times in that hall before you go in the next area. @pseudo tapir

pseudo tapir
#

For the fastest time I would assume you have to get it in either the hall or through that door right?

hexed matrix
#

Yeah fastest time possible would be right after that first alarm.

pseudo tapir
#

And what about hsu

hexed matrix
#

Pretty much first hsu you see in the zone could be it. Hsu is usually quick unless you get bad rng with the spawn point.

Preferably want them to be near where you come in at. That being said, I'd just try it. Go for the keycard, if bad spawn restart. Once you get to hsu just search the sub areas left and right and where you come in at. Worst case scenario just ping it if you have trouble. My quickest a1 is 7 minutes. Good luck

pseudo tapir
#

Thanks i’ll let you know how it goes

upbeat tusk
#

you need to do all of this under 7minutes

solar estuary
#

yeah, I personally think the best HSU spawn for speed is Zone 52 Area E, seems like it would be the quickest

pseudo tapir
#

oops forgot i have to have friends

golden yew
#

Solo A1 speedruns require cfoam spawns too

hexed matrix
#

@pseudo tapir how did it go FaceThing

agile ibex
#

A cfoam grenade can be extremely helpful on the keycard door

golden yew
#

I mean. If you can solo A1 in under 10 minutes without cfoam id love to see. CFoam is just a huge time saver overall

median quarry
#

Yeah cause you dont need to run around for 5 years

agile ibex
#

theres a sub 5 minute a1 run up on yt

#

Although i think they entirely rely on a certain keycard location so i imagine it takes a bit of resetting

stone orchid
#

Not a sub 5 solo run tho andyThinking

median quarry
#

solo is harder

agile ibex
#

I mean. If you can solo A1 in under 10 minutes without cfoam id love to see. CFoam is just a huge time saver overall
Didnt see solo, my bad.

#

In that case id honestly assume that either cfoam is 100% required or youd need to get very lucky without it

pure folio
glossy vault
#

nice

agile ibex
#

Smooth moves

#

I havent really seen many people use mines in speedruns so that was nice to see

#

I wonder if a sub4 is possible

agile ibex
#

Wow it is

median quarry
#

Isn't the wr 3:40ish?

#

I'm confused

#

Why is that vid titled wr then

upbeat tusk
#

or they didn't know what is the current wr

solar estuary
#

I mean, the video was published on the 4th of February iirc

#

so that may have been the wr at that time

hexed oasis
#

Any1 got vid of actual WR?

loud dagger
#

What does WR mean?

regal meteor
#

World record

golden yew
stone orchid
median quarry
#

No.

#

We habe this

next trout
#

I think someone said speedrun site will only add once out of early access

agile ibex
#

Is there a map with keycard locations for A1

pine star
obsidian folio
#

Honestly, with the style of GTFO (randomized supply and enemy spawns), there's not really a standard way to compare times, as one group may encounter far less resistance than another.

upbeat terrace
#

Also with the Fleeting rundowns is kinda hard to archive.

obsidian folio
#

That too. It is unlikely we will have another rundown last as long as Rundown 001 has lasted. As the devs refine the update methods, some rundowns may last as short as a week.

pine star
#

That is what makes it fun as a speed game though. The leaderboard becomes sealed after the rundown ends and a new leaderboard pops up for the next rundown.

stone orchid
#

I mean rng is a constant in many speed runs, I don’t see gtfo as anything special in that regard

#

With certain fixed spawns existing, and many key parts at least being partially predictable, it has a little more consistency than other games with procedural factors

#

The rundown issue is definitely a larger problem with any sort of consistent board, yeah. Or at least a board that doesn’t get 10 million subcategories

prisma radish
#

just cheat 💿

simple crescent
#

Bruh

thick mesa
#

So if I was to attempt A1 Solo..
Smg, MG, Mines? And of course, Mallet

bronze gazelle
#

Yep that or a shotgun if u prefer that for giants

thick mesa
#

MG is great for giants, Ill try MG run

bronze gazelle
#

|| Also u can hide between the wall and behind the box directly in front of the door if u need a quick reload spot and I can spray 2-3 down that come in that small entrance||

light plinth
#

I mean there are plenty of games involving RNG that do speed running seriously

Hey folks glitzy1Wave I am new to the game and I was wondering if any of you had any tips, tricks, or general info that is useful through out the game. Any advice is welcome and appreciated! acApple Scout GlitzyBulba

upbeat tusk
#

SleeperBonk them all

median quarry
#

anyone duoed C1? what is the best loadout

upbeat tusk
#

normal speedrun build

#

with replace of mines to sentry

thick mesa
#

duo C1 ain't bad

#

two shotgun sentry
MG
SMG
Get to "the good spot" (that I can't describe)
put down two sentries
get all the tool refill into that room
pull ammo closer
laugh at how easy it can be.

upbeat tusk
#

i think mines work as well

#

a nice combo of c foam launcher and mines

median quarry
#

ah k

#

teaching my bro

#

will see how easy it really is lol

upbeat tusk
#

the trick with that combo it's

#

there is a forklift area with a big openable door

#

the c foam guy gonna stand there and c foam the door after you guys defend a little

#

after c foam the mines guy gonna mines it enough to kill all of them when open the door

#

the mines guy go back to the terminal while the c foam guy stand there and tapping the c foam launcher

solar estuary
#

You sure that would last long enough for all 8 waves?

#

Do you just keep c foaming the door till you're out of tool refill then let the mines protect you for the rest?

upbeat tusk
#

you only need to use 1% for every 2 - 3 bash of the door

#

or max 30%

#

you can Freeze the door

#

or choose to shoot 1 globe of gu (2%)

#

and shoot it everytime the globe is gone

#

there was a stream from Kenny where he demonstrate how C foam work

solar estuary
#

Interesting

upbeat tusk
#

he said every c foam grenade he throw

#

he will count to 17 or 20 bashes

solar estuary
#

If enough enemies clump up, do they break the c foam faster?

upbeat tusk
#

and then another 7 bashes until the door is destroyed

#

i think they have a limit of that

solar estuary
#

I know that one guy on a door is a lot slower than more

#

But does it keep on going

upbeat tusk
#

you can tell your friend ( or you ) to stand there and c foam it

solar estuary
#

Or is there like 5 limit, the rest don't add on

upbeat tusk
#

and the door health are reset with the C foam

#

... somehow

nova yacht
#

If a door is about to be broken, you can c-foam it and it fully heals the door??

upbeat tusk
#

i need better testing

#

but we can put it as it is fully heal

#

the animation are still there

nova yacht
#

I regret not looking at this chat more often. Do you happen to know exactly how many hammer hits it takes to destroy a full health door? Then how many it takes to remove c-foam from a door?

upbeat tusk
#

but they need 7 bangs on the door the break it

#

um

#

let's me see

nova yacht
#

Science must be done

upbeat tusk
#

jinko have some video testing the door

#

here

#

i don't know the exact number of how many times that the sleeper need to hit on a reinforce door to break it

solar estuary
#

I am pretty sure c foam is like a shield in most pvp games, acts as the first layer of health, so if the door takes damage, then you c foam it, the door stops taking damage, the c foam takes it instead

upbeat tusk
#

yes

#

but the thing is

#

after the c foam break away

#

the door still need 7 - 8 attack to bust it open

#

i'll go test it to make sure it is

solar estuary
#

Maybe for the sleepers hits, idk didn't test that, but times a door was hit by sleepers, then we c foamed, after sentries killed them, the door broke after two hammer hits when the c foam was removed, as compared to a door that stayed c foamed and didn't take damage

#

Yeah, good to test instead of guess lol

#

My guessing I mean, you are already testing

upbeat tusk
#

ok

#

the door is not heal back

#

so the strat is that

#

don't let the sleeper attack too much on the door

solar estuary
#

Yeah, let it hit the c foam, but not the actual door

upbeat tusk
#

took them 7 - 9 hits to break it

solar estuary
#

How many times have you beaten B2 solo btw? I remember you saying you solo B2 a lot and I just solo'd B2 on my 4th try earlier

upbeat tusk
#

i solo a lot

#

beat it once

#

with a c foam launcher

solar estuary
#

Lol, you like c foam a lot it seems

#

Mines are the best for solo imo though since you can use all the tool refill on yourself, put mines, and use more tool refill

upbeat tusk
#

i know it's the best way

#

i want to use something that people think it's the worst

solar estuary
#

Ah, you're just seeing if you can with c foam instead

upbeat tusk
#

and i do like c foam

solar estuary
#

Try soloing with DMR, sniper, and bio tracker lmao

#

That is the worst for solo

upbeat tusk
#

no

#

that would be idiotic

solar estuary
#

Too far then

upbeat tusk
#

stressing yourself too much

solar estuary
#

You could solo C1 with that load out using the capped spawn head shot bug

upbeat tusk
#

even with the c foam launcher i already have some bad time

solar estuary
#

But that's a bug so

upbeat tusk
#

well i have a strat with not THAT bug

#

my strat was using the AI path

solar estuary
#

To solo C1?

upbeat tusk
#

ye

#

lure them back at spawn where there are 2 big door

solar estuary
#

So you let them run to you, then run to spawn?

upbeat tusk
#

first you force them spawn near at our spawn by running pass the Forklift area

#

c foam on the floor a bit

solar estuary
#

If you are in zone 65 or reactor room they spawn closer?

upbeat tusk
#

yes

#

if you run too fast they will respawn near you

solar estuary
#

Cool, didn't know that

upbeat tusk
#

so you have to run at a pace both slow and fast

#

so they don't respawn

#

run toward the pre-type code reactor terminal

#

enter the code and start running back to spawn

#

the hard part is to dodge all of them and kill the Giant/Titan if they spawn

#

if you can't kill the giant then you have to dodge them next time you see them

solar estuary
#

Makes sense, so find a good spot to put a lot of distance between you and the enemy then repeat if you can

upbeat tusk
#

yes and no

#

at spawn we have 2 big doors

#

one on the left where the Locker spawn and one in the middle

#

the middle one have to be opened from the start ( i forgot )

#

and the left one have to be pre C Foam ( i also forgot to mention )

#

when you run pass the middle door and go up the stair, the sleeper change their path and go for the C foamed door

solar estuary
#

Oh, strange

upbeat tusk
#

it's not that strange

#

they tend to go for the nearest path

#

and that one is the C foamed door

solar estuary
#

Strange that they don't take the open door way

upbeat tusk
#

YEA

solar estuary
#

I guess I was mistaken that they would avoid breaking a door down unless they have to

upbeat tusk
#

at this point you can stand there and reinforce the door as they try to break the door

#

when the countdown as 40 or 30 seconds

#

start running back

#

they don't spawn more

#

and no cheese this time

#

the hard parts are the running, dodging , and killing the giant

solar estuary
#

The cancelation of them spawning is kind of cheesing it since you're stopping the other waves from spawning, but not as cheesy as headshotting them

upbeat tusk
#

i have the sheet that tell how many they spawn

#

i must say for solo player you can't kill THAT MUCH

solar estuary
#

Even if you use machine gun to headshot kill the strikers, then c foam kill giants and hammer shooters?

#

Well no, the timer

#

Would fuck you over

upbeat tusk
#

ummmmmm

#

the timer is the big FU to every player

#

if they screw up

#

the wave count reset

solar estuary
#

Yeah, if it wasn't for the timer, it would be possible

upbeat tusk
#

so for example

#

Code 1 have 2 waves

#

if you messed up code 1

#

they gonna spawn another 2 waves

#

if you manage to kill all 2 waves before the timer run out

#

the light are still there but there is no Music

#

idk about the normal alarm spawn

#

but with the Scout spawn

#

if you ran too far from the scout spawn

#

they respawn near your location

solar estuary
#

Btw, great find on figuring out the back side of enemies is weaker than the front

#

Use that all the time now when solo to one shot sleepers in a group and to 3 man giants

upbeat tusk
#

it was from [Alpha]King

#

he's been living in the game

#

i'm just maximize it

solar estuary
#

Oh, you just shared it around, I see, but still, that was the most useful thing I have learned for GTFO since learning the MG can one shot the strikers and shooters lol

upbeat tusk
#

heh

#

i never use the mg to shoot the striker head from the back

solar estuary
#

I shoot them in the front, only one shots at close/medium range, but two shots at all long range so still really good

upbeat tusk
#

oh

#

every weapon have that one call RANGE

#

that's everyone ignore

solar estuary
#

Yeah, damage fall off

twin thunder
#

Btw, is there already an in game timer that tells you how long a run lasted?

upbeat tusk
#

nope

median quarry
#

any idea what % of an alarm wave you need to kill before it spawns a new one?

upbeat tusk
#

idk

#

but

#

for example for me in A1 second alarm

#

i put 3 mines outside the room

#

1 at their spawn

#

2 near the door

#

if i put a 4th one

#

they will spawn more

median quarry
#

hmm

#

trying to get D1 first alarm down

upbeat tusk
#

you need to know the exact location their spawn is

#

i think they not just pop ALL the enemy at first

#

so you're good to do so

median quarry
#

good to mine their spawn?

upbeat tusk
#

yea

#

for example

#

if the horde have 20 - 22 enemies

#

when the Roar come up they spawn like 4 - 5 of them first

#

and then start spawning more

#

to reach that 20 - 22 enemies

#

i know you're lurking Mods

#

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE

median quarry
#

haha

upbeat tusk
#

this is based on the A1 spawn kill

median quarry
#

where do you put that mine? ive never done that for any of my A1 runs

upbeat tusk
#

D1 is similar to A1 due to the straight line'

#

so

#

in A1

#

the FIRST box

#

i put it at the edge of the box

#

when i activate the alarm

#

instant explosion

#

i also tried to do this in C2 just for show

#

after 3 explosion

#

they don't spawn more or any roar that i heard of

#

so i just confirm it

#

tested it with 4 mines

#

Roar

#

if my calculation is correct then

#

i killed 4 or 5 with the first mine

#

the 2 other can kill 1 or 2 each mine

#

8 - 9 kills then

#

So I want to know the Devs thoughts on how they made this game designing it to be hard and Speedrunners just breeze past ass their work like it meant nothing.

upbeat tusk
#

i would say that they will take Speedrunners an example to make the game harder

#

The game is not hard ENOUGH

solar estuary
#

Also, the speedrunners didn't get the best speed run on their first try, it took getting the mechanics of the game down and learning what to do first to accomplish that

upbeat tusk
#

or just 1 mastermind planning all of it

#

and just told the other 3 what to do

solar estuary
#

the other three still have to have the ability to do those things, and do them fast

upbeat tusk
#

well yes

#

but i like that some speedrunner are just like shooting so speedrunning is the best thing for them

Challenge accepted

thick mesa
#

I might just be being an arse but how the actual &@^# are you supposed to solo A1..
Supposedly, simple. First mission- everyone's bloody solo'd it
Yet no matter how many C-Foam I have, my mines, my aim with MG/SMG, topped off at 100% on everything, key card alarm door is a !@#$%&^ !&@^#

#

You'd think after carrying teams through every mission except D1, I'd be able to do this by now

deft gull
pine star
#

Sometimes you need fast alarm circle spawns.

#

Perfect play can be ruined by bad alarm spawns.

#

@median quarry speedrunners tend to find the bleeding edge of what is survivable. For every 1 run that works there are 10 where everyone died.

jaunty zenith
#

@thick mesa I've not successfully solo'd A1 either; but I'm super close. The furthest I've gotten, I died to a poorly placed trip mine, after completing all 3 of the second security scans, with a single shooter left alive that tripped the mine.

sullen silo
#

is this new a1 or old a1?

jaunty zenith
#

R1A1

sullen silo
#

ah right

jaunty zenith
#

R2A1 is going to be a lot, and I mean a lot, more challenging to solo.

sullen silo
#

you think its still gonna be possible?

jaunty zenith
#

Absolutely.

thick mesa
#

You may have a point there..
I keep getting my 2nd round of scans like, at the doorway where all my mines are- and I'm not going in for those.

jaunty zenith
#

Well.

#

Absolutely, so long as the C1 solo trick still works.

sullen silo
#

making all the strikers headless?

jaunty zenith
#

If the C1 solo trick works, literally any level is soloable.

#

Yes

sullen silo
#

ah right

#

is that classed as an exploit?

thick mesa
#

I give up though, I'm not wasting an hour and a half of my life clearing all these rooms of sleepers only to die to some RNG scan BS.. =/

jaunty zenith
#

As soon as that goes away, good luck solo'ing any levels past B

thick mesa
#

I'm just a bit salty over it, I did my best solo gameplay yet and that ended up happening anyways.

sullen silo
#

want to know my trick to beating a1?

#

luck

thick mesa
#

I was going to say 'not really' since I'm not trying anymore, lol

#

I'm not a solo anyways- I like to have fun with people around.

sullen silo
#

for me i didnt bother with a run unless i got 2 c foam grenades in the first area

thick mesa
#

I did first alarm door no c-foam
wasn't too shabby.

#

but I can have 6 C-Foam and can't do the keycard door..

#

=/

sullen silo
#

yeah thats pretty easy if you know good mine locations

#

its still hard with loads of c foam

#

a large part is knowing when to go back to the door to re c-foam

#

balance that with doing scans and youll be able to do it

#

then its just a case of not alerting rooms

thick mesa
#

rooms aren't so bad, lately
I did two scout rooms, one with a larger female in it as well.

#

going through rooms seems alright..
it's the doors that just, ugh.

#

I don't like spending an hour and a half four times, five times in a row only to lose to one single mechanic.

#

better things to do with my life :^)

sullen silo
#

yeah its a lot of repeticion

jaunty zenith
#

It doesn't need to be nearly that long, though.

sullen silo
#

honestly i put my run down to mainly luck

#

i got 11 c foam grenades

thick mesa
#

I don't see why it doesn't, code.

#

yeah, I could get keycard right through the first alarm door if I'm lucky..

#

but it usually spawns in a far-side room that requires killing 1-2 scouts prior.

#

and those take time.
20-30m per room, depending how clusterfudged it is?

#

eh more like 14-25 but still

#

nothing like a scout who's stuck patrolling over a cluster of 4 sleepers to make you scratch your head

sullen silo
#

when i got a shitty rng run i usualy fucked it up

jaunty zenith
#

Dude

#

It should take like

#

15 minutes after the first scan to get to the second

#

Including looting 51

#

And that's just starting out solo

solar estuary
#

You just need four c-foam nades when doing the second alarm door, then about 4 mines placed strategically outside the door to blow half the horde up before they reach the door so they don't break it as quickly

#

use the first nade to c-foam it, turn on the alarm, do three scans of the ones furthest from the door, then go and c-foam the door again as around that time it should be about to have no more c-foam, the finish the last scan, the next set should be near the door, so do those scans and have your 3rd c-foam nade ready, then finish the scans, and c-foam the door again after finishing that set

jaunty zenith
#

I usually do it with 3 c-foam. I also usually die before I finish the scans.

solar estuary
#

then while they're breaking in, finish the last set of scans that should be near the security door, and then kill the enemies, the ones that survive the mines you placed

sullen silo
#

i barely did it with 5 c foam

solar estuary
#

using that strat makes that alarm door so much easier

#

I failed A1 solo like four times because I didn't know this strat, but once I used that c-foam strat with the mines placed in good locations, makes it so much easier

devout silo
#

HOLY SHIT, A1 4:34!!!!!!!! C-foam is op

median quarry
#

@thick mesa if you have plenty of cfoam for the 2nd alarm door, why are you too scared to do the circles near the door where your mines are? No wonder you can't progress any further in A1. 20 hits on cfoam for enemies to remove it and ~12 to break the actual door. Also not trying to be a dick but if it takes you an hour and a half of your life to reach the 2nd alarm door I question if soloing is for you. 6 cfoam is more than enough and will reinforce the door long enough for you to get the scans done. After that they break the door down and 90% of them should die to your mines. Do you record footage of your solos? I'd be happy to help you get it down before next rundown is released

thick mesa
#
  • 6 C-Foam, but not all of them able to be brought with me. Used one on door and one behind it (on the inside), the other two in my pocket, and one set of 2 in another room entirely.
  • It's taken me an hour roughly to get through all the rooms. I've never had card spawn in close proximity, it's always in the rooms after the one with the terminal, or in the far room on the right path. Scouts are cruel, it takes time.
  • When I did the first scans, I had to go from the far right towards the left. When heading left, the scan went to the far right against the door- where 4 mines were waiting. I'd already been forced to use the 2nd seafoam at that time, and it was breaking fast. Didn't want to chance that.
  • I do. I'm posting my last/final attempt on the matter this evening.

Now that's where I want to bicker, is about the mines. I've played them 1 on each side, 2 on the light above, 2 on the floor in the middle, but never- ever -have I had most of a wave die when entering. There's always at least 8-10 left.
This last run I just scattered them around, hoping it'd be more worth the bang to take out singles or doubles.

median quarry
#

if you clear your way to the terminal and ping the key each run it may save you a lot of time overall. if its in G or H you could consider restarting, would give you a lot of practice at doing the first alarm door without cfoam

upbeat tusk
#

G are close and easy to do

median quarry
#

i see people on reddit commenting that they actually restart if they dont find cfoam in z49 which baffles me

upbeat tusk
#

they think C foam are god or something

#

just bring C foam launcher

median quarry
#

they think that first alarm door is impossible without it

#

makes me laugh

#

G is very open and if you get a scout and youre unlucky it can take ages to get in melee range

upbeat tusk
#

you did the door wide open

thick mesa
#

I did the first alarm door just fine without C-Foam

#

mines did a good job on that one.

#

you only really have issues if a big guy spawns and makes a fuss

median quarry
#

ye

upbeat tusk
#

if there is a big guy

median quarry
#

well thats why i put personally but 2 mines down side by side

#

cause it instakills

#

right behind the door

upbeat tusk
#

i would recommend put mines as high as possible

thick mesa
#

not always
I've had a big guy be slow as hell and never get touched by the mines x-x

#

that's a good idea, Alpha
the others won't trigger it

median quarry
#

anyway i dont understand exactly where youre putting your mines for 2nd alarm

#

so just tag me when you post the footage

upbeat tusk
#

you trigger Blooddrunk 😄

#

honestly, I've tried anywhere, and everywhere.
on the light above the door, on the sides of the door, outside, inside, both-

he's been solo speedrun it till he get sub 10

#

and he saw people struggling with it

median quarry
#

lol i have a few sub 10s

#

but i havent bothered posting cos it didnt beat kenny's wr

thick mesa
#

I'm nowhere near a great GTFO player yet.
Yeah I can lead people through missions or sometimes clutch when others are down-
but Solo'ing is just. Lordy.
It's kinda boring, slow, and the RNG aspect completely messes with runs

median quarry
#

sub 9 is possible cos i died at 90% on a 9:04 or something

thick mesa
#

I'm-a gonna go eat-a.
brb.

median quarry
#

i might be wrong here but it sounds like youre not confident enough in clearing rooms yet

#

unless theres a scout in a room i walk/sprint from one enemy to the next, depending on whats in there

#

thats why its taking you so long

upbeat tusk
#

afraid of triggering other sleeper

median quarry
#

i think its widely not known by people that you have AGES to kill a triggered sleeper

#

the inconsistency of a scream waking up the room is annoying though

#

grats

#

sounds like my first speedrun xD

#

close to an hour

devout silo

solar estuary
#

@thick mesa inside of Zone_49, the area with the zone_52 alarm door, there is a guaranteed glowstick spawn in the SouthWest corner of the room where you can store a pair of c-foam grenades

#

and carry two more on you

#

so once you use the two on you, you can grab those two where the glowsticks were

bronze gazelle
#

I’ve found 1 C-foam there before

#

Only once

solid trail
#

@bronze gazelle r u sure no one else had just swapped it out for a foam

#

ive never seen foam spawn there

bronze gazelle
#

I found it over the weekend

#

Solo

solar estuary
#

Recording of it or it didn't happen lol

#

Probably was the power of mr. Cool that turned those glowsticks into a c foam nade

#

So no one else can do it

median quarry
#

I've never seen it not be a stack of 2

#

I don't want to admit how many times I've run A1 either

upbeat tusk
#

there is a box that will 100% spawn a 2 c foam but a Hard spawn is a no no

solar estuary
#

in the back of zone_51 there is always a 2 c foam

#

on A1

#

I think that's the definition of a hard spawn

upbeat tusk
#

ye

solar estuary
#

what did you mean by a hard spawn is a no no then?

#

I was confused by that

upbeat tusk
#

he said he found a hard spawn in Z49

solar estuary
#

oh

#

I know there is hard spawns for glow sticks in Z49

#

but yeah, not c foam

upbeat tusk
#

i wonder how these thing happen

#

some guy said he saw 3 scouts in D1

solar estuary
#

people's brains exaggerate

#

when they fail expeditions and try them multiple times, sometimes the runs can meld together in their head

#

lose track of what actually happened in one run that didn't in another

#

that's why video evidence is the only thing we should accept as proof of things in-game

#

or things like that

upbeat tusk
#

having a picture is kinda

#

not reliable

#

we just beat D1 again with some friends and on the last alarm on the reactor the enemies bugged out and all got stuck on some place on the map and never came to where we were. At some point when we were going to the extraction point some of them got unstuck but no idea what happened. We had 2 guys holding out on the security door on the front and 2 guys doing the scans. We don't do speedruns or anything like that but has anybody experienced that? or did we just encounter a weird bug?

solar estuary
#

That happened to me the first time I did D1, yeah

#

Don't know what causes it

upbeat tusk
#

there was a spot that cause them to bugged out

@median quarry as in the whole wave from the first alarm door was still alive as you looted the key and started the 2nd alarm?

With a squad of 4 you can have someone kite the first alarm wave technically

#

True

#

Also I'd say the weighting of getting cumfoam instead of glow sticks has to be at least 1/10

#

I assume you've soloed the rundown then

#

Also 30 hours

#

Those are some rookie numbers

#

You gotta bump that shit up

#

Lmao

#

Hmmm

#

I have like ~300

#

I would say at least half of that is a1

#

Sadly

upbeat tusk
#

i don't think c foam will spawn in all 4 lockers in Z49 tho

solar estuary
#

If it hasn't happened yet, then we don't know the chance, it could be hard coded to only have one of the lockers able to have c foam nades

solar estuary
#

Believe what you want man, lol

spark elbow
#

Ive had at least 2 lockers have it before. Maybe 3.

upbeat tusk
#

how could that happen when the first area only spawn 6 lockers/boxes?

#

the maximum number would be 3 lockers/boxes have c foam nade and i know all those 3 location

sullen silo
#

only 3 c foam nades could spawn in 49

#

its set that 3 lockers/boxes will have refill kits

median quarry
#

Best I've had was 5

upbeat tusk
#

max will be 6

#

2 in the 2nd alarm room and 4 at the big door in the corner

what about extracting?

upbeat tusk
#

you could tell 2 people to glitch up places the striker can't reach

#

1 guy at the reactor

#

1 guy at glitch up at the extraction

spark elbow
#

then all the enemies stare at you in first room. extraction still immpossible. instead you get someone at the top of second room, have someone sneak around to extraction point after you cap spawns, and have someone at reactor putting in codes

upbeat tusk
#

we tested that

#

if 1 guy go to the room before the forklift area and glitch up

#

they all going for that 1 guy

#

only a few will look up at 2 guys at extraction

and not spawning is exploit it

you can run from the reactor

reinforce the left big door

#

Anyone speed run any levels on new rundown?

south charm
#

no

hexed matrix
#

I hear it's harder to solo now( maybe inpossible?) At least I'm hearing it is very tedious. Wont be able to try new rundown until after work. Excited.

#

Of course

#

Doctor is in! Dr Edward Richtofen Slaughter Them All!

#

R2B1 need to keep nine waves😂

#

#

I’d be very impress if someone makes it!

#

B1 solo is easy but c1 🙂

grave mango
#

How? That door takes so long!

upbeat tusk
#

4 man speedrun are easily doable

#

Solo yolo

Guys, i need help, i cant complete 1 lvl

#

who can help?

quiet ferry
#

ok

#

oops w/c

severe tinsel
#

Is there any way to predict which door enemies come through at the 104 alarm door in A1? That keeps fucking me up and wondering if I should change strategy or if there's a way to know

plush kindle
#

It's random I believe

solar estuary
#

The enemy spawning for most alarm doors is two areas away, so the area of the alarm door, a connected area, then the very next connected area of that will be where the enemies CAN spawn

#

that isn't the case for a couple of scenarios in terms of horde spawning though, but for almost all alarm doors, it works that way

bronze gazelle
#

dang A1 solo is def possible

#

i died on very last scan of key door

#

bad rng with the circles but i could have placed mines better 2

gritty crater
#

@upbeat tusk solo'd that the very first day

topaz cargo
#

I really think this new Rundown will be very hard almost impossible for solo play in the C and D sublevel of the complex.

median quarry
#

nah no way the new c1 and c2

topaz cargo
#

@median quarry Nah..not the R2 !!??!

#

Cant be serious

#

What!!!

#

I will look into that when I finish those level, I'm at C1 actually. We died at first uplink......SURPRISE....But yeah..this is Speedrun channel so I think I'm off subject

calm pulsar
#

I managed to do C1 in 2 tries, just have to be conservative with ammo and ultalize every equipment you get / have

median quarry
#

GG

#

me and one more guy did C2 with only us XD

river quail
#

whats the strat for solo def 106 A1?

hexed matrix
#

I like the idea on carrying the fog machine on paper. In game, just a pain in the ass. Gl ever doing that baby solo.

#

C2

median quarry
#

I tried it solo.. practically impossible

hexed matrix
#

Paid in the butt lol

coral sorrel
#

has anyone done d1 solo?

upbeat tusk
#

no

#

not even bug tester

primal rain
upbeat tusk
#

not even you ???

hello TopHat

Secretly Plant is loaded in the cash and he just throws bags of money at em

median quarry
#

nah c2 aint done solo

vague wave
#

until youtube videos start apearing

median quarry
#

not now at least xD

pearl yew
#

there is no way you can do them solo the security doors with alarms will get you everytime

#

even with a nice supply of ammo and a turrent

primal rain
#

I can definitely understand why you guys don't think that C2 can be done solo. Since I'm not allowed to give you any proof, all I can say is to give C2 solo a shot. I can guarantee you that it can be done. worryThumbsUp

upbeat tusk
#

it can be done

#

but it will be a painful one

south charm
#

yeah everyone was pretty impressed when plant got through c2

thick mesa
#

Not entirely sure how.. unless you have an infinite stack of fog repellers and ridicilous kiting skills without ever getting hit.
Id love video proof, lol.

upbeat tusk
#

C2 have the entire map to kite tho

#

if you remember correctly where to go

#

people underestimate the mines too

opaque trail
#

I still need to do C2 with a group :DDD

south charm
#

yeah the mines on C2 are great, because dealing with alarm events quickly is a difference between life and death. (alarm events- i.e trap doors and alarms d u h)

#

if you ||take too long the sets of four pile up from behind, and it puts great strain on your team||

#

so the mines in a good setup can delete hordes, making easy work out of the alarm events

upbeat tusk
#

every channel i'm in refuse to use the mines

primal rain
#

Mhm mines are definitely great and honestly, I was thinking of using it but I opted out for a bio tracker instead

upbeat tusk
#

we already got bio tracker

primal rain
#

Haha mb, I think I got the convo mixed up bit and I thought we were still talking about C2 solo

upbeat tusk
#

C2 solo with bio?

primal rain
#

mhm

upbeat tusk
#

it's not a bad idea

#

the damn level is so dark

#

my teammate just die of falling

plush kindle
#

I shot a teammate 3 in C2

#

I felt really bad about myself for that

median quarry
#

If i think about it again c2 seems possible solo you just need to survive the gas chamber scan or rather not get hit

id look over the stuff u wrote again 😉

prisma nacelle
#

anyone got a b3 solo strat?

plush kindle
#

Hmmm

hexed matrix
#

ok i modified. thanks hornet

#

@prisma nacelle devs are clearly wanting teams instead of solo play. The maps are tedious as it is, I don't see many people soloing these maps. Solo C2 or D1 and get back with me lol. R.I.P.

solar estuary
#

@hexed matrix for your D1 stuff ||609's generator isn't useless, it opens 614 and gives you a cell back for your troubles as well as a lot of supplies, very useful actually||

hexed matrix
#

||Thinking in terms of speed running but yeah for sure. @solar estuary||

solar estuary
#

oh, true, this is the speed running channel

prisma nacelle
#

ok so is that a yes or no

#

cheers

hexed matrix
#

gotta love those scouts. tender love and care

#

and elbow grease

ornate echo
#

I kind of wish there was a way to prevent a Scout from screaming if you alerted it, but I feel like it'd be difficult to balance that so expeditions aren't too easy.

#

No.

#

It gets the invulnerability the moment you alert it.

#

It's invulnerable the whole time during the time it takes for the scream to happen,

#

And also invulnerable for a few seconds after the actual scream until it stands up and moves.

fossil lantern
#

is it possible to 1 shot it with anything other than a fully charged hammer or a sniper?

ornate echo
#

Shotgun if all pellets hit the head,

sullen silo
#

shotgun upclose

ornate echo
#

Revolver in the back of the head at close range.

fossil lantern
#

is it possible to sync 4 people with Big Irons?

ornate echo
#

You mean the big strikers? The ones that do 40% per melee?

fossil lantern
#

no

#

I mean revolvers

#

revolvers are Big Irons

#

Can you sync 4 people with revolvers on a scout

#

at range

#

to kill it

ornate echo
#

I'm sure you could.

sullen silo
#

probably but why use revolver at that point

ornate echo
#

Heck, I think you could even do it with 2 if perfectly synchronized.

#

Revolver is good.

#

Does more damage now so it's a bit easier to down giants.

sullen silo
#

i meant for killing a scout

#

some other guns can kill them in 2 shots as well ]

fossil lantern
#

sync machine pistols

#

lmao

ornate echo
#

Machine Pistol, you'd have to be basically breathing on the enemy so the damage falloff doesn't screw you over.

wide kite
#

D1 can be done around 30 min. My group just did it 4 times consistently.

lethal rapids
#

hey guys ! Some strat for the Uplink at Zone 207 (Rundown R2C1)

grand raptor
#

yeah i was with @wide kite we managed to do it in 20 mins

solar estuary
#

oh, that would be an interesting video to watch @wide kite , did you guys record it?

wide kite
#

@solar estuary We did not. It was all practice for when we do try it during recording. Once we have my group back together we will send the video. Is it allowed in this chat?

solar estuary
wide kite
#

Thank you

solar estuary
#

good luck!

#

@ me when you post the video, I want to see how you guys pull off this 20 minute or so run!
