#

what are the 5 hidden achievments

half hornet
#

Mostly lore related.

#

Finding a specific log, or experiencing a specific event.

#

Although there is one weird one - to drop 100.000 meters.

#

(It means the total sum of level depth. You must actually survive the expedition too.)

How come in R8E1 the ALT team is sent to the crater thing within KDS Deep?

complete the rundown

solemn wigeon
#

Like why is there a scan there?

half hornet
#

Good question actually.

#

Dafaq are we scanning.

solemn wigeon
#

It's just to make sure everyone has jumped in

half hornet
#

I know, but that's game explanation, not lore explanation.

solemn wigeon
#

My best lore guess would be that's the closest approximation for the position of where biocom thinks the teleporter scan would be

half hornet
#

Best i can think of is:
"Is it blown up?"
...
"Yep, it did got blown up"

deft kiln
#

Not

#

What's the lore behind t-scans

deft kiln
solemn wigeon
half hornet
#

Scans in general have always been a giant plot hole in on itself, we just kinda accept it as the game doing game things.

#

This shit is never making it into a movie.

inland island
#

Guys what's the lore behind the game

deft kiln
ornate crow
#

what did the warden mean when they put a class XII berserk scan at the start of r8d2

#

the lore implications...

inland island
#

What the hell is a class XII BERSERK scan

half hornet
#

I don't wanna know

ornate crow
#

oh that's just what my team calls the new r8 enemies

inland island
#

OK we get it
There is a XII? Alarm thing?
But what's a berserk scan

ornate crow
#

we like to call the alarms by the enemy types they spawn

solemn wigeon
#

Beserk is the enemy name they gave them

ornate crow
#

yeah lol

inland island
#

Dude what's a nightmare scout

#

How many scout types are there

half hornet
#

What are you doing in spoiler chat anyway

solemn wigeon
#

5 scout types

inland island
#

I've seen everything

#

So it doesn't matter anymore

mortal portal
#

I like to call the new strikers Pineapples and the shooters Sapplings PirateSimon

inland island
solemn wigeon
#

Regular, Scooter, Shadow, Charger, Nightmare

inland island
ornate crow
#

Scooter lmfao

#

definitely one of the names

inland island
#

Why are there so many variants

mortal portal
#

Why not

inland island
#

What has evolution done to those poor things

solemn wigeon
#

Evolution isn't set in stone, mutations are always gonna happen

ornate crow
#

lore implications of why it costs like 4000 cfoam and 200 burst cannon shots to kill one single nightmare scout

inland island
#

Lmao we were doing b2c1 and it was our first time seeing a shadow type enemy
We were like
Wtf??
Is this a bug?

mortal portal
#

Because stronk biomass

inland island
#

It was funy

mortal portal
#

Shadows are my favorite enemy

inland island
#

Anyways

#

What does the nightmare variant do

#

Does it make them stronger

ornate crow
#

yes it costs 4000 cfoam and 200 burst cannon shots to kill a single nightmare scout

#

also their tendrils retract really fucking fast

mortal portal
#

Play R8 and you shall know PirateSimon

inland island
#

No

#

I can't even beat r2c1

mortal portal
#

Want a pro tip?

inland island
#

Don't cfoam every door

#

Yes

mortal portal
#

Nah, something else

inland island
#

Yes

mortal portal
#

Start with the last terminal, end with the first. Therefore when the uplinks are done you are closer to the extraction

inland island
#

That's what we were doing

#

The spores jumps cared us

mortal portal
#

Poggers

inland island
#

Also there were lots of fog

#

We couldn't see sh*t so we died
Yeah we died because we couldn't see sleepers

#

Massive skill issue right?

mortal portal
#

Bring bio

inland island
#

There were too many enemies

#

We couldn't stealth kill them

#

Like 5 together? Idfk

#

That should've been easy but the fog was annoying

mortal portal
#

Yeah the fog in that map is atrocious

#

It also makes the lighting even brighter so it's basically a flashbang level

#

But hey, R2C2 has a great surprise

#

R2C2 and onwards is where it gets cool and real

inland island
#

I hammered a spore and our teammate literally had a heart attack

mortal portal
#

Oof

inland island
#

We laughed so hard

#

What's with the giant boss fight in the end of the game

#

Does it have a lore to it

mortal portal
#

Which one

inland island
#

Bossfight

#

The big dude

#

Wdym which one

#

How many giant dudes are there

#

šŸ’€

#

The one that has a big mouth

#

And tumors..

#

Idk it's as big as a tower

mortal portal
inland island
#

I'm not talking about a tank

#

I'm talking about the end game boss fight

#

🫔

hexed vapor
#

What level?

inland island
#

I'm talking about the enemy that's as tall as Tony stark's building

#

Idk I saw it on yt

#

Probably spoilers (100%)

mortal portal
#

Oh the kraken, well so the lore behind it is that a group of scientists were experimenting with biomass. The issue was that the creature was still in development when Dreyfus decided to cut all funds to the research team. They recovered the specimen and decided to never give it up. Cause in the end, they never wanted to let the scientific community down. So they kept researching, never running around, and never deserting their purpose PirateSimon

hexed vapor
#

I dunno if I'd call Nemesis an "end game boss fight."

deft kiln
#

What else would it be

alpine spindle
#

I guess if anything it did take significantly longer than any other fight we’ve had

inland island
#

Sleepers need guns

half hornet
#

They do? Shooters are basically that

#

Hybrids are basically heavy machine gunners

inland island
#

Give them actual Fire arms

#

Give them snipers

#

Give them rocket launchers

inland island
half hornet
#

No, just very slow bullets

inland island
#

Because their missiles seem to be homing

half hornet
#

Rocket launchers would require an AoE explosion

inland island
#

True

#

Homing bullets

#

Oh yeah engineer from drg

#

How do you deal with chargers

half hornet
#

Hey, Dark Souls had them homing bow/crossbow arrows for ages and i don't see anyone complaining...
Oh wait, that's me

half hornet
inland island
#

I was playing in a b class mission and there were two together
Also two other scouts together

half hornet
#

Or high cal, if you have the balls to let them get close.

inland island
#

They killed our team under 15 seconds

alpine spindle
#

Hel gun works too

inland island
#

I play hel gun and hel revolver

warm burrow
#

Just melee them when they get close to stagger and melee again :)

inland island
#

Where do I exactly shoot them

alpine spindle
#

Body

#

Line em up

inland island
#

Spine

#

?

#

Oh alright

#

How about the two other scouts

#

I have to go loud I guess

alpine spindle
#

Kill the scouts

#

Double charge

#

Double hit

#

Hel rifle pen

inland island
#

Man I'm bad at this game

#

I'll just spam hel gun everywhere

half hornet
#

Alright guys, i need something.

#

I need to know the depth or R8E2, from expedition description.

balmy robin
#

Almost the same as R8E1 or R5E1, roughly 1000m deep

half hornet
#

I need the precise number

balmy robin
#

1004m

#

While R5E1 and R8E1 sit at 984m

alpine spindle
#

So 100 R8E1 clears for the Inner

#

74.4 -> 75 R7E1 clears

half hornet
#

Spreadsheet is complete

alpine spindle
#

80 R8A1 clears

balmy robin
#

R8A1 is quite deep as well, if I remember correctly

half hornet
#

The whole game comes down to 75.813m out of 100.000m required

alpine spindle
late nebula
#

Waiting for kds deeper

half hornet
alpine spindle
#

Because if so and you didn’t count it, that may be the last mission

half hornet
#

395

#

don't know if it counts though

alpine spindle
#

Someone get d0cred

half hornet
#

76.198m with tutorial

alpine spindle
half hornet
#

R7A1 and R8A1 look like best grinding options ~800 and ~1250 respectively

#

50% more depth, for 50% longer loading time and bigger map

#

R7D2 got whole 1300m for the 25 minutes of gameplay it offers, but that's assuming squad doesn't wipe

alpine spindle
#

Man, if only it counted previous attempts…

kind swan
#

R7D2 clears in like 10-15minutes

#

Unless you're going very slow

#

Unless you want speedrun records of 6 minutes iirc

solemn wigeon
mossy yoke
alpine spindle
alpine spindle
# mossy yoke do you really want me to check?

Eh it seems like w/ tutorial it would still be whole game + 1 so it wouldn’t really make a difference. I guess it would if it was 75m left excluding tutorial and tutorial was counted

#

So nah you don’t have to it’s not game breaking

mossy yoke
#

the good news is that tutorial does count.

#

so i guess have fun 4:07 speedrunning it ablobsmilehappy

alpine spindle
#

@half hornet INCLUDE TUTORIAL hypergodAYAYA

winter wharf
#

Granted people don't really speedrun the level to that point

half hornet
#

What the...

#

Apparently A4 doesn't exist?

alpine spindle
#

What?

half hornet
#

I felt like it did

#

Weird

alpine spindle
#

We’ve only gotten to A3

#

A3, B4, C3, D2, E2

half hornet
#

Alright, one less row for the spreadsheet

#

There is technically one C4

#

R6Cx

alpine spindle
#

D4

hexed vapor
alpine spindle
#

I forgor R6

hexed vapor
#

It's the full clears that are kind of long.

winter wharf
#

I always forget r6c3 exists

hexed vapor
#

All doors + penalty is like 40 minutes.

deft kiln
#

and make sure there is charger giants plus bridge spam

alpine spindle
half hornet
#

Huh, i missed a level.

#

Shit.

#

Good things i decided to re-check evertything and go extra stupid on this useless spreadsheet

#

Damn, do i have to re-check values too?... Now i feel paranoid.

#

Sigh... Do it right, or GTFO...

winter wharf
#

What are you doing again, artek?

alpine spindle
winter wharf
#

Hm, not bad to have ig

#

But I still think the easiest way would be farming r3d1 or r7d2

alpine spindle
#

R8A1 is probably best ratio

winter wharf
#

You might be onto something, casuals runs of that shouldn't take more than 7 minutes jf you're rushing scans

half hornet
#

What do you guys think of R8A2?

alpine spindle
#

Depth?

half hornet
#

Feels a little bit slow. Shadows grind stealth to a hault.

#

Its exactly the same as R8A1

alpine spindle
#

Not worth

half hornet
#

Which is 1254

alpine spindle
#

If you want peak efficiency R8A1 will triumph over A2

#

R8E1 would be less efficient but more ā€œfunā€ I suppose

#

R7E1 isn’t really viable

half hornet
#

Yeah.

#

+200m for... All of that...

alpine spindle
#

If we take average time as 7 minutes for R8A1 and you need 80 clears, you get 560 minutes, roughly 9.3 hours

#

Don’t think anything will really top that

winter wharf
#

Probably not

alpine spindle
#

R7E1 is at best 40 minutes

#

R8E1 20

winter wharf
cosmic quail
alpine spindle
#

It’s 20?

winter wharf
#

What are you smoking

alpine spindle
#

Not including failures from pubs

#

20 at worst

#

40 at best for R7E1

#

Average veteran time for R8E1 prob closer to 17-18 min

winter wharf
#

There are a lot of optimisations you can make for r7e1 I guess? But it's definitely far worse for grindinf

cosmic quail
#

cause i saw a run that was like 40 mins

winter wharf
#

I think Brazil skip was 37 or 38 minutes, if you full blast speedrun then it's faster but you know

cosmic quail
#

and was extremely confused

winter wharf
#

Are you really going to get a team who can properly speedrun that level

alpine spindle
#

20 minutes R8E1 first time pubs? Possible

alpine spindle
winter wharf
#

Long kiting for ages or waiting for ages, like waiting until the end and then running back for extreme terminal commans

alpine spindle
#

You’re timegated in R8E1 and assuming no one knows what they are doing, theyll miss some stuff

#

Checkpoint just adds time

#

If you fuck up

cosmic quail
#

wait checkpoints add time?

#

im pretty sure they dont

alpine spindle
#

RTA

#

Not IGT

cosmic quail
#

ah

alpine spindle
#

And yea they do add time

#

IGT in different levels

#

Checkpoint gaming

winter wharf
#

Checkpoints fucking with the timer is so funny

alpine spindle
#

We do +/- 0.5 hours for dropping

#

If we take RTA

#

~10 hours of gameplay grinding R8A1 for the Inner

#

You could do it in a day

cosmic quail
#

gtfo moment

sick cloud
#

does anyone have any tips for the tank scans in R8D1? they're such hell to deal with especially in the giant room with the stairs leading down 😭

alpine spindle
#

I’d recommend finding it and learning it before doing anything else

sick cloud
#

i saw that path yeah

#

ill try to learn it as best as i can

#

is there any way to consistently dodge or avoid the tanks tenticle attacks too? i try my best to and i cant figure out how

winter wharf
#

Play around cover

#

Tanks have a lot more range than regular sleepers and their tongues do funny stuff

random ruin
#

so the game audio broke and didnt hear anything of what was said at the end of R8E2

#

so did we escape and then what?

sick cloud
random ruin
#

also was there any point to doing the secondary objective? would the outcome had been different otherwise?

#

that last mission was beyond difficult and was just pure luck that we passed it

#

is there somewhere i can go to read like a transcript of the lore? the story? cause its messy lol

half hornet
#

There is a pinned document in #gtfo-lore and you can ask any additional questions there.

#

That or go to wiki and started reading slowely and carefully

half hornet
# timid gust <@526096782753529861>

You can't host an E1 level because it is unlocked by clearing every Mainmain in the rundown.
You don't have B2 and C2 > therefore > you can't host E1.

random ruin
half hornet
#

Yeah, wiki people being notably slow for some reason this time around.

#

I have like 4 new helmets and none of them are on the wiki.

random ruin
#

i finally got decem

#

the pallette i wanted

#

now i can look like TF2 medic

kind swan
#

with R8. the Cosmetics wasn't really the Focus tbf

random ruin
#

was there always a teleporter at KDS deep? and why go to KDS deep? Like isnt that the place they store operatives... why not choose another teleporter location there are plenty thru rundown 6

half hornet
#

Which is a shame

#

Where is my plate armor goddammit

#

Where are my 2 cooler prosthetic legs

#

Where are my dual robo arms

#

WHERE ARE THEY

#

I've been stuck with same like 4 cosmetics since Rundown 7

#

Only thing that got replaced is the helmet (and its a sidegrade really, not an upgrade) and i guess slightly more interesting palletes... But that's it.

random ruin
#

if a new player played this game i dont think theyd understand the story at all. maybe if the original rundowns were still here they would? my understanding is theres 2 teams original and ALT with 2 schaffers crazy and not crazy

#

but the ones we play as for the first 6 rundowns are the ones with the bad ending

half hornet
#

Yeah, that's been a major concern that wasn't really adressed in any meaningful way.

random ruin
#

the ones who escape dont have a story

half hornet
#

You play one story for first 6 rundown, switch to a different one in rundown 7, then go back to ALT one and... You know the rest.

random ruin
half hornet
#

The price they had to pay for their weird development model.

random ruin
#

i cant tell if the alternate dimension team was part of the plan all along or if they did that in order to wrap up the game quickly

#

btw do you know how those 2 teams met? like how the dimensions merged? Schaeffer mentioned something but i did not understand it at all lol

half hornet
#

Its 100% the wrap up

#

The story starts feeling rushed quickly.

#

The first half is... Alright.

#

Mostly because you're just kinda blind to what is going on.

#

But so far A2>C2 are just nonsensical.

#

I'm probably missing some pieces, but things just go from 0 to 100 real quick

random ruin
#

yea

#

and im just browsing steam discussions now and seeing mentions of a "mimic"

#

do they mean the clone KDS developed?

#

im so confused

half hornet
#

The mimic, the unit, the conduit.

random ruin
#

why even have that clone that they developed like what did it contribute to the story?

half hornet
#

The artificial creep the corpse of which you can observer in R6CX as well as a mountain of corpses of them in, uh... R5... D1?...

random ruin
#

maybe im stupid but i just am not understanding it

half hornet
#

Or was it R4D1?...

random ruin
#

so they are like bred using machines but whats the purpose for the story

#

as far as i know alt schaeffer gets info from them?

half hornet
#

Have you played CX?

random ruin
#

original schaeffer kills one

random ruin
#

finished all the missions

#

just finished r8

half hornet
#

For the longest time we theorized their purpose was to replace us, because ability to be invisble to sleepers is effectively god mode in the facility.

#

But it turned out the Warden was making them with one purpose and purpose alone: to talk to us.

random ruin
#

ohhh right there was a log about how they arent detected... and how arent they detected lol just really light feet?

half hornet
#

OG R6 one tried and got fucked.
ALT R6 succeeded, because ALT Schaeffer is not actually insane and seems to have about 15 extra IQ points.

random ruin
#

ok...

#

so alt schaeff talked to warden, but THROUGH the unit

half hornet
#

Not THE Warden

random ruin
#

so the dead one we see in cx is schaeffs doing

half hornet
#

Its... Weirdly complicated, for some reason.

#

Its not Warden who talks through the unit - its some other consciousness.

#

"The Warden is of us" it says. Its one of them / works with them, but its a separate thing entirely from whatever was posessing the unit.

random ruin
#

i wish i could use a gif to depict my confusion

#

your explaining just fine its just... the story lol

#

i started out thinking we were just 4 prisoners out of thousands but are all the other prisoners us? are we clones?

half hornet
#

No, other teams definetely exist. Schaeffer was a part of one team like that.

random ruin
#

ohhh right right

half hornet
#

We're not factually prisoners, but rather Warden calls us that because we respond better to orders when he does. Which is something Warden both figured out and implemented himself.
BIOCOM just called us "resources".

#

The whole R8 debacle has been probably the biggest mystery. The mechanics of how 2 teams and BOTH Schaeffers ended up in the same place make absolutely zero fucking sense.

random ruin
#

in our rectum

#

i mean cranium

#

at first i thought rundown 5 kds deep us waking up kds deep woke up the other team but now i find out they arent clones

glossy crescent
random ruin
#

maaaaaaaaaaaan

#

i appreciate the info im still as confused as before but not for a lack of understanding the story

random ruin
glossy crescent
#

nah bro
thats wild

random ruin
#

"fuck the warden" right??

#

schaeffer said that

#

speaking of which i felt terrible drowning the guy after he had a fucking meltdown

#

despite him being kind of a prick

vocal geode
#

and was gonna leave us for dead

random ruin
#

he killed himself technically

vocal geode
#

he had it coming

glossy crescent
random ruin
#

and yes

#

i thought it was rather comedic

half hornet
#

The KDS deep affair was called "The Influx protocol"

random ruin
#

but very depressing

half hornet
#

Influx of what?... What for?...

#

So many questions were left unanswered.

random ruin
#

and thats doubled now because NOW THERES 2 TEAMS

half hornet
#

I genuinely do fear its because the story elements were heavily inspired by their design process.

#

KDS Deep Influx protocol was a clever way of leading into Rundown 6, v1.0 release with "influx" of new players, like the facility is getting raided big time.

random ruin
#

this game had so much potential with the world its set in i love it but the execution was kind of butchered 😦

#

but i suppose im glad i have a finished game

half hornet
#

Storytelling in 2020s... Seems like its the industry standard almost now.

#

Oh well... Im yeat to beat R8's D2 and E2, so maybe i'll see something cool in there.
R8E1 was hype for what it was.

random ruin
random ruin
half hornet
#

Still curious what dictates who speaks and when.

random ruin
#

i was told R8E2 was the good ending but for me a good ending is getting both teams to escape not helping the selfish one to leave the others

half hornet
#

For me it was hackett saying "I think we made it" followed by Bishop saying "It doesn't bloody end! It never ends!"

random ruin
half hornet
#

To be fair its the easiest E-tier in the game.

#

Its literally just move forward, acquire ammo, keep moving.

random ruin
#

sure it is

#

but im now playing for fun

#

im not stressed bout completing all the more difficult missions

#

i liked the start of R6

#

the whole teleportation stuff to alien planet was kinda cool for me

#

alot of the really cool missions are alot harder and require teammates and getting everyone on to try and fail for a few hours isnt welcome in my friendgroup lol

#

i say "lets play gtfo!" and they tell me to gtfo

half hornet
#

LFG is da way

bold widget
#

game scams me
got the character logs from A2 and A3
no achievment

:/

i think you have to finish the mission right?

#

i killed a big guy solo melee but didnt get the achievement till i finished the mission

#

and i dont think u have to win

#

just finish any way

so killing myself doesnt count ?

did you sewer side?

i cant say the word

#

if u did mission would fail right?

Also fatshark its a really good example of how good bot support can be

Of course fatsharks games its way more simple than gtfo

But the baseline its there

Granted the bot support of gtfo should be design for 2 players + 2 bots anyways

#

Not to be played solely with bots

ok beep ill bite. my noob opinion is that it's kind of a better sniper because you can 2-burst bigs and can kill 3.5 per mag. also you don't need to hit head.

im glad u put some respect on burst cannon at least

narrow gulch

we didnt get the hel gun verdict yet

olive shoal
#

The world isn’t ready for that yet

balmy robin

HEL weapons are harder to rate on numbers alone, because penetration . Gameplay impacts them much more

narrow gulch
#

thats why the hel gun verdict is important

lost nova

im shit with hel gun because of the chargeup but on paper its very good and one the more versatile specials, no?

the chargeup used to be worse

its really good

lost nova

anyway the spreadsheet has shots-to-kill tables (+ ammo efficiency) now for most enemies and they re-calculate based on the range input which is very based and cool

did you account for the tank amour muit once you break tumor source trust me bro

the extra damages is just one

for tumor pop

#

WAIT I FIGURED IT OUT

#

YOU KNOW NIGHTMARE SCOUT?

deft kiln
#

unless client then you have no damage cap

lost nova
#

HOW IT HAS OVERKILL DAMAGE ON THE TUMOR

#

maybe nightmare scout's overkill damage is multiplied by its armor mult?

deft kiln
#

no probs not

narrow gulch
#

I dont think so

deft kiln
#

client is just werid

lost nova
#

it has a 0.3 armor mult

#

so its possible

narrow gulch
#

knife to front + sniper to back killed it

deft kiln
#

what gun?

lost nova
#

If the overkill damage is 100%, and not 0.3 (armor mult), then a sniper to the back will deal 160.24 damage, leaving it on 0.76HP

deft kiln
#

that is what happens

lost nova
#

but if the overkill damage is only 30%, a sniper to the back would deal only 104.772, leaving the scout on 56.2hp

deft kiln
#

look at the vid?

#

does knife deal 56 damage

lost nova
#

knife crit damage is 8.25

cosmic quail
#

yes

#

lost nova
#

so yeah the overkill damage is 100%

#

and not 30%

narrow gulch

I think nightmare enemy tumors act like regular limbs

im pretty sure knife does a whole 3000 damage

do u think thats the motivation for the nerf tho

narrow gulch

so we can get scattergun demolished

deft kiln

if it is then it is because they really dont want d mom to be sniper fucked

do u think they should make scatter 3 bullets but nerf prec damage to 0.3 so you can't scatter mom?

JisH 🤯

they just need to remove scatter

narrow gulch

ong, give it a precision nerf and then buff stagger

deft kiln

and rebuff sniper

so you cause mom running birth and do no damage

hey, got a question. im swith some friends right now trying to do R8A2. we know about the terminal for secondary and the password for it is in R8B2. we have this week's password, but I want to ask where exactly is it in R8B2? where is the terminal? how quickly can we get to it?

kind swan
#

in a mossy corner you can walk through

#

otherwise

#

you can just ping the terminal from the other one

ivory osprey
#

is that in B2? or are the two terminals hidden the same way behind moss in both A2 and B2?

half hornet
#

Are you asking where the password is acquired?

ivory osprey
#

yes

half hornet
#

It appears on a terminal in the big fight of secondary about 2 minutes after the fight starts

#

A half of it anyway.

kind swan
#

Didn't read fully. Rip

half hornet
#

Another half is in... One of the funny broken terminals.

kind swan
#

But yeah. Need B2 main and Secondary to get both halves of the code

ivory osprey
#

I see. So we have to finish B2 main and B2 secondary and two different runs just to unlock A2 secondary. I dont think we will be up for it just because of the time constraints. After A2 secondary I know E2 secondary also requires a password ? how many passwords are there for us to get within a week and how many levels do we need to run i order to get them?

kind swan
#

E2 has the same code as one of the terms in B2

#

You don't need it.

glossy crescent
kind swan
#

It's just another level you can get one half of the codes

ivory osprey
#

oh ok. so the only thing that requires a password in this rundown is the A2 secondary and it can be obtained in B2 or E2? Im guessing it is similarly split in half between Main and Secondary on both levels?

#

narratively then, is A2 secondary a dead end where we just listen to Henrikson and the rest of Schaeffer's plan doesnt happen?

alpine spindle
#

A2 is literally a poorly implemented Easter egg

glossy crescent
#

its more like a troll level

#

you die at the end

alpine spindle
#

It should’ve been a separate expedition

glossy crescent
#

so it doesnt even make sense

ivory osprey
#

oh, that sucks a bit then. I hoped it would be a separate storyline progression path where levels would have secondaries that are only accessible by getting the password from previous stage's secondary, where we essentially follow Henrikson instead

#

oh well, at least as it is it makes some sense mechanically

#

thanks for the help, were not going to worry about A2 secondary for a while then

anyone got the all character backstory logs achievment ?

did you finish the lvl ?

Unless there’s others scattered around the complex that I just happened to get. I’m at 140/188 atm.

why did i go lore hunting and have all the screenshots

if i have to do it again šŸ’€

balmy robin

There are 12 audio logs related to the main characters

pliant shard
balmy robin
#

Most of them being in R5A2 and R5A3, but there are also 4 more in the same Rundown if I remember correctly

#

You could pull up the lore database to find them :)

pliant shard
#

I only have r6+7 logs left so I must’ve already gotten them without knowing

half hornet
#

You'll probably get them anyway whole doing the logs achievement

balmy robin
#

I can't remember the exact ones, since I did go for a bit of lore logs hunting during testing as well, enough to validate the 50 logs one

#

I have to admit I did not have the time to go look for the whole 188 :D

random ruin
#

so I was told a while back the secondary objective in R8E2 gives us the "good ending"

#

i cant be arsed playing E2 again to see the bad ending lol

#

what does the secondary objective actually do?

solemn wigeon
#

You are required to do secondary to beat the level

#

R8E2 IS the good ending

random ruin
#

oh

#

well ok then

#

i put in a command to a terminal in secondary and it was like "trash emptied" or something

#

garbage chute maybe idk

solemn wigeon
#

MAIN_WASTE_FLUSH

random ruin
#

yeah that

#

how does that change anything for us story wise

solemn wigeon
#

thats in main im pretty sure

#

Secondary is just a reactor

random ruin
#

oh right

#

yeah ok secondary is reactor

#

but how did main waste flush help us

#

gotta empty the trash folder before noping out

#

cant have the other team finding the homework folder

solemn wigeon
#

Powering the reactor in secondary unlocks the door to the zone before KDS Deep,
The other side purged KDS deep (presumably) of waste fumes, particulates and fluids if I had to guess

#

which then unlocked the door to access KDS Deep

random ruin
#

hmm

#

like i said yesterday i have no idea why it had to be kds deep

#

dont get me wrong the room is cool asf

half hornet
#

+1 Bot vs R8D2: yay or nay? What would be the trap?

random ruin
#

but like any old teleporter woulda worked

solemn wigeon
#

they've both been to KDS Deep before

#

Sure somewhere like R6B1 would work too, but if I was to guess, it's not secure enough or doesn't provide alternative entrances

#

Like how were we going to close the door behind us when we got there first

random ruin
#

weve played as the alt team and went to kds deep for sure, i assume new players who didnt play original rundowns will assume the same?

#

as in theyve both been there

solemn wigeon
#

Yes

random ruin
#

considering what the story is now, i think it wouldve been cool for all the rundowns to feature what R8 has, where you play as one team on one side and the other team on the other side

#

not exactly the same missions or anything

#

just for story sake it'd match up better

solemn wigeon
#

The problem is, both alt and original r1-r7 are practically identical

#

not r7 whoops

random ruin
#

yeah but new players who didnt play originals wont understand that theres a new team

#

i sure didnt lol

#

none of my friends did

#

its like 6 rundowns one team and then we switch it up real quick for rundown 7 then mix it rundown 8

solemn wigeon
#

ĀÆ_(惄)_/ĀÆ

balmy robin
#

It is a shrug moment indeed.

solemn wigeon
#

Not much can be done about it

balmy robin
#

I do appreciate that they found a somewhat elegant way to wrap things up, considering how it could have derailed after R7 and the Alt:// segment

random ruin
#

im just happy its wrapped up at all

#

things coulda been done so much better but i still like it

#

the story is fine but just not tied together nicely

balmy robin
#

While there are of course quite a few holes, I really enjoy the "ending", even though there are quite a few zones of uncertainty, to say the least

random ruin
#

its like original Schaeffer and his team transferred from the "asshole" dimension

native lily
solemn wigeon
#

Naw the alt dimension came over to the original worldline

balmy robin
#

Well, to be fair the OG team are quite a bunch of bastards. I do not resent them too much for what they did

#

They did go through hell

solemn wigeon
#

Both teams went through hell, but when OG team were given the opportunity to free themselves from both Schaeffer AND the Warden, revenge was on the table

#

The Alt Team remained under the control of the warden

balmy robin
#

A very fitting end.

native lily
solemn wigeon
#

Exactly

#

unfortunately Schaeffer working alongside the warden killed all chances of that

#

Frankly the only problem I had with R8 was in E2 when we SOMEHOW knew how to extend the timer, and knew the locations of the terminals to open KDS Deep

#

You could make the argument in C2 that we knew where the MRI Scanner was because we could still interact with Biocom in our mind, but after that every progression text that appears is our own decision

Some of the zones are named "RESERVOIRS"

#

What's people's opinion on R8D2 secondary optimal choice? This squad is trying to do a Class 9 and the fucking tank is being mega cringer

alpine spindle
#

Though you can get away with Class 7 and bring fog repellers + turbine for later

balmy robin
#

It mostly depends on your team loadout

late nebula
wary olive
#

the fog level with doing the class 7 isnt even bad at all, definitely worth considering if you cant make it past the class 9

balmy robin
#

I have not tried the "Moderate" option in the current build, but I am pretty sure it is quite cursed for the rest of the run šŸ˜…

alpine spindle
#

But you’ll need fog repeller/turbine for later

#

My first clear was with class 7

#

And it wasn’t terrible

#

Fog repellers for the first part after error

#

And then turbine + fog repeller for the big room

#

You only need 6 total fog repellers if you play it right

#

If you do class 5 you’ll need more fog repellers cause it makes the alarm easier if you just unfog the entire room

#

But doing class 5 is just a bad move imo

#

It’s worth doing 7/9

2 wipes on secondary, barely made it through on 3rd one, flawlessed everything prior to the boss fight (although maybe spent like 3-4 minutes too long getting lost), took out the boss from 2nd attempt, ALMOST made it to extraction and wiped on extraction because we forgot the MWP at the door frame (LMAO).
Alright - another checkpoint, boss fight AGAIN, do the whole fucking thing again and this time we don't even get to open the door - the fucking 2-3 snatchers accompanied by like a dozen nightmares just overwhelmed us immediately.
