mods and admins are going to have a hard time in the coming days since people are posting spoiler content and not hiding them
#gtfo-spoiler-chat
atomic escarp
stiff cave
its a spoiler channel
atomic escarp
no in media and just GTFO-chat
stiff cave
unless you meant other channels in which case I'm sorry for being a prick
storm falcon
apparently the new guns are spoilers, so yay? time to get spoilered about all the stuff in the later parts of the rundown because rules.
that aside, given the new guns all mention they pierce i guess the old ones didn't? at least not as much? idk they all seem kinda meh to me
atomic escarp
no the hel guns pierce
terse jacinth
^
carbine is a burst smg
burst cannon self explanatory
semi rilfe is big pistol (i like it)
and bullpup is king
atomic escarp
rifile is a better ammo less damage DMR from my experience
craggy summit
bullpup is a lazer
terse jacinth
it blows heads off in one shot.
atomic escarp
nice crisp sound though
terse jacinth
though not always kills which is a bit of a bummer
atomic escarp
^
terse jacinth
carbine is not to bad but i cant get to really like it.
craggy summit
bullpup has a lot of upsides
terse jacinth
Looks like a vector though which is noice
craggy summit
only downside is the slow reload
storm falcon
whats the point of the new sniper? given it pierces (which is a weird thing to put on a weapon meant for single targets) i imagine it does less damage or something?
terse jacinth
less damage, more ammo and piercing
mellow creek
not really useful this run down thou
atomic escarp
hel rifle kills scouts right?
terse jacinth
hel gun is for close up and hel rilfe is long range
fierce crag
@atomic escarp it kills scouts :)
terse jacinth
noice
atomic escarp
noice
don't have the aim to use it properly though HAHA
the rifle is a cross between the AR and the DMR, the bullpup is a cross between the SMG and the AR, Carbine is an SMG burst rifle, Burst cannon is a charge-up lawnmower and the both HEL weapons are anti hoard piercing weapons.
atomic escarp
yea
storm falcon
still cant wrap my head around a sniper meant for clearing hoards
terse jacinth
hel rilfe is "line them up and blow them the fuck away"
storm falcon
good luck lining them up
wet zealot
It's pretty easy honestly
terse jacinth
hordes overlap eachother so just aim body mass and boom
guaranteed multihit and tripping
wet zealot
Horde clearing became a ton easier and it's nice. Dont need to waste so much ammo as before
Rifle vs DMR I'd like to see the stats for
halcyon elk
The small HEL feels so bad to use. I feel like it should at least 1HKO regular sleepers (non-collateral) considering it has such low ammo
Haven't tried the big one yet
atomic escarp
headshots kill them
atomic escarp
not on the body though
terse jacinth
it has 39 rounds total
halcyon elk
Two tap on body feels so bad for a gun that has 39 rounds
I get why because 1 shots would be easy,
terse jacinth
mind you, you´re hitting multiple targets
So if you punch through three with both shots you killed 3 for the cost of 2
Or if you blow through multiple heads at once
halcyon elk
Yeah I get why it works the way it does. Just feels bad. Not really satisfying with the whole windup part plus the sound effect. You kind of expect it to do "more"
halcyon elk
Even when you hit the sick double or triple headshot most of the time it's too chaotic to see
atomic escarp
i really don't like using the C.shotgun
terse jacinth
It´s not great tbh.
Good in ammo but everything else just eh
good for sweeping hordes but thats it
atomic escarp
cause i always fire from farther away than what the spread of the gun allows
tiny jungle
anyone know what the IIX Syringe does?
halcyon elk
I think C.Shotgun for big strikers. Could just run up and unload on the torso and it would die
no aiming required
atomic escarp
which in turn doesn't make me the most effecient C.shotgun user
west crow
I haven't had a good consistency on giant take downs
but the burst cannon
my god
that thing has a nerf coming
tiny jungle
so true
halcyon elk
Is it really that strong? Isn't it just machine gun but burst fire only
storm falcon
im guessing the cannon is meant for big boys? it seems almost useless against normal sleepers given the abysmal fire rate
tiny jungle
yeah
burnt goblet
Burst cannon shreds big guys
west crow
you can two burst giants
atomic escarp
i'm an idiot so I usually kill giants with hammer and not guns
tiny jungle
anyone know what the IIX Syringe does?
wet zealot
Hammer is the only way
burnt goblet
Meh
halcyon elk
If you're dumb enough and runs traight at it you can sometimes force a stagger animation before it can hit you
tiny jungle
ik
west crow
unfortunately only two labs levels means you only see the syringes and use the syringes twice
atomic escarp
Something I noticed, the Burst Cannon has almost no recoil
west crow
I am not sure if they appear on the other ones
burnt goblet
Eh there's recoil alright
tiny jungle
but the IIX makes your health go yellow? what does that mean?
west crow
yeah it is a stable gun
halcyon elk
increased melee damage when health is yellow
mossy yoke
but the burst cannon
my god
that thing has a nerf coming
@west crow funny thing, that's gone through a nerf and a buff again during the dev cycle.
wise pivot
please tell me the machine gun isnt gone
burnt goblet
It is
atomic escarp
syringes are only in the lab areas
burnt goblet
All r2 weapons are gone
halcyon elk
It got replaced with burst cannon which is legit the exact same thing just on burst fire mode
west crow
unfixable gun
burnt goblet
Nah
wise pivot
yeah but its different so its bad
atomic escarp
BRUH
burnt goblet
Nah
halcyon elk
It's honestly stronger
burnt goblet
Machine gun wasn't even that good even imp
west crow
burst cannon outclasses the machine gun in terms of giant kills
burnt goblet
Imo*
halcyon elk
Machine gun had to be hipfired because of uncontrollable recoil
atomic escarp
I get the vision for the burst cannon to be used on giants
west crow
machinegun was great for hordes
halcyon elk
this one fixes that by forcing you not to spray
mellow creek
yeah
west crow
I rarely used it for small sleepers
mellow creek
lovu dont need secondary weapons to kill hordes now thou
atomic escarp
R2's MG was amazing when you can ADS and control the recoil
burnt goblet
I wonder if the regular sniper can body shot scouts now that it got another damage buff
wise pivot
machine gun was great for crowd clearing AND giants, you just had to burst fire
mellow creek
primary weapon is better at it now
west crow
don't think it can, no @burnt goblet
halcyon elk
Apparently the regular sniper damage buff is "huge" or something
west crow
it can 2-3 shot giants
mellow creek
yeah it was doing 50 damage
oblique lantern
good stuff adding time limits 🙂
burnt goblet
Then at the point, Hel rifle is better
atomic escarp
Back shots with the sniper still kills scouts
mellow creek
now it does 96
atomic escarp
I know the sniper can almost one shot giants now
hexed vapor
Sniper used to do 60
It can one-shot titans
You need 240 damage on a titan striker
west crow
the sniper just gets outclassed by the newer weapons
atomic escarp
OK IMMA BE A SNIPER MAIN NOW
burnt goblet
Yea
hexed vapor
I'm not a fan because I prefer hoard potential, but it's absolutely viable now.
atomic escarp
but no can the regular sniper kill scouts with a frontal body shot?
hexed vapor
Yes.
atomic escarp
hecc ye
glacial narwhal
Anyone know what the current loadout is for Main / Special & Tool?
hexed vapor
Scouts only have 84 health
west crow
just go through the weapons yourself
halcyon elk
bullpup is king
oblique lantern
oh really.. so the new sniper is weaker that the old?
west crow
but yeah
glacial narwhal
I haven't played since the first rundown
burnt goblet
Bullpupnis really good
west crow
bullpup is king
halcyon elk
new sniper is stronger
atomic escarp
Anyone know what the current loadout is for Main / Special & Tool?
@glacial narwhal Nothing meta
burnt goblet
Oof
atomic escarp
just what you feel comfortable with
west crow
that weapon is pretty okay
halcyon elk
Depends on the mission but they've only been out for a day
oblique lantern
lol really the rifle is really good if you can aim
storm falcon
bullpup seems kinda meh
and the rifle isn't a oneshot headshot which is sad
burnt goblet
Bullpup seems to be great, Carbine is okay, normal rifle seems to be a weaker version than the dmr, which is better since it got buffed to hell
Yes
Normal rifle can land one headshot kills
west crow
but I can also aim with the bullpup 😎
oblique lantern
bullup is good cuz auto...
halcyon elk
I would say most missions 2x sentry 1x seafoam 1xmine/bioscanner is usually meta
west crow
bioscanner hate club
halcyon elk
and weapons are personal preference just dont have everyone run sniper
oblique lantern
but fires off alot of rounds my buddy was always running out
west crow
piece of plastic!
glacial narwhal
is shotgun sentry still better
oblique lantern
maybe that cuz of his play lol
glacial narwhal
or is it back to burst
west crow
yeah
burnt goblet
Tools didn't change
halcyon elk
shotgun sentry opop
west crow
I don't think the burst has ever really had a place
burnt goblet
It's good
glacial narwhal
at launch it was really good
west crow
definitely need tweaking
hexed vapor
@oblique lantern What?
atomic escarp
bio scanner has it's fair share of uses
west crow
it just shreds through ammo
hexed vapor
Sniper has a new role now. It has much worse ammo but it's made up for by insane damage.
oblique lantern
using bullup and running out of ammo cuz fires lots of bullets .. my buddy who doing rundown with me and uses that gun..
halcyon elk
I feel like sniper fills the exact same niche it did before
Kill scouts and kill giants
west crow
the amount of giant spawns on d1 hurts the sniper rifle
atomic escarp
though it's good for Giant killing now
hexed vapor
Yah, but it was really bad at that miz
rain heron
sniper has more damage but less max ammo
halcyon elk
if you're using sniper to kill regulars you're very desperate
burnt goblet
Then manage ammo better for the bullpup
hexed vapor
Shotgun was far more effective.
Now sniper is far more effective but gives up lots of hoard potential.
storm falcon
the rifle will pop heads, but it won't oneshot. dunno what i'm doing different
oblique lantern
yeah thats what i was telling him lol
rain heron
sadly normal shotgun is nerfed
burnt goblet
Didn't have much uses anyway
hexed vapor
That's good though, because it wasn't any good at it anyway
atomic escarp
no damage nerf
atomic escarp
burnt goblet
Worse than the combat shotgun, normal was only good if you were ambitious enough to not use sniper to kill scouts
west crow
the hel rifle has more ammo and penetration
burnt goblet
Ew
west crow
it functions almost like r2 sniper
rain heron
😮
burnt goblet
Hel gun needs a buff
west crow
which one?
burnt goblet
The normal hel gun
feral oriole
FUCK that scream !!!!
west crow
the dmr?
burnt goblet
No lol
west crow
so the hel sniper?
oblique lantern
watch out for wall herpies 🙂
burnt goblet
You have the hel gun and the hel rifle
oblique lantern
yeah that's what i use
west crow
i'd consider the hel gun a dmr
oblique lantern
with shotgun turr
rain heron
is it true that in the starting screen you see a girl with red dress?
atomic escarp
wait does the DMR headshot kill regular strikers now?
west crow
no, they patched that out @rain heron
burnt goblet
It always one shotted strokers
rain heron
lol
west crow
dmr didn't always one shot strikers
atomic escarp
you can edit your message
oblique lantern
one shot heads
west crow
now it consistently does with the buff
tight knot
it seems
burnt goblet
I can get really surgical with the dmr/rifle
tight knot
there won't be any more new manssion?
west crow
I don't really see their effectiveness again the baby hordes
burnt goblet
That's why you have your shotgun
rain heron
dude what a hardcore
oblique lantern
well been up since yesterday at 9am i should get some sleep ... GL out there yall
atomic escarp
Gnight
oblique lantern
see yall online tongin
burnt goblet
Machine pistol would of been great for this rundown, at least for the last couple levels
west crow
it isn't, no
atomic escarp
^
kind cedar
How to kill mother without breeding?
rain heron
maybe this rundown is more lore oriented?
burnt goblet
^^
west crow
unfortunately a lot of the levels are rehashed from R2 so the experience isn't really worth repeating
oblique lantern
it would seem
atomic escarp
A2 is basically diet D1, and A3 is Diet D2
west crow
it has more terminals and two audio logs
rain heron
XD
rain heron
what about audio logs?
rain heron
lol
burnt goblet
Lmao they literally said themselves that there's more lore
rain heron
you can find a lot a of lore oriented stuff in a1
storm falcon
never noticed any audio logs, now im depressed because i missed them
west crow
you walked past them??
burnt goblet
But yeah this one is gonna completed day 1-3, at least for the experienced players
atomic escarp
though alot of the maps have been some repetition of previous rundowns at least all of them have looked amazing
vale geyser
Got to B2
west crow
there really isn't much
atomic escarp
well, A1-3
vale geyser
Anyone else?
rain heron
what if they are preparing something much bigger?
burnt goblet
Probably
west crow
they could be
hexed vapor
Ammo from 0 from ammo packs:
RIFLE: 22/44/66/87
SHOTGUN: 8/15/21
@feral token
west crow
but preparing for something bigger isn't going to hold people's attention
rain heron
mmm
hexed vapor
R4 will probably be a larger rundown
rain heron
maybe they will tweak enemies numbers or difficulty?
west crow
they might
feral token
thanks Ray, saved me a little bit of time
burnt goblet
Theres 2
rain heron
oh ok
west crow
does the boss battle count as a new enemy?
rain heron
the "boss" fight
hexed vapor
Rifle seems to be around AR's efficiency last rundown.
burnt goblet
6 new weapons, some new consumables
burnt goblet
Rifle is essentially a weaker dmr
west crow
only two lab levels
hexed vapor
It's probably more efficient than DMR tbh
west crow
^
rain heron
what about the enemy we saw in the steam trading cards?
burnt goblet
Yea
west crow
just her face
rain heron
oh
burnt goblet
Maybe 4-5 lab levels and 2-3 other
rain heron
its creepy as fuq
atomic escarp
first time i saw syringes i thought heroin
west crow
I love the environment and was happy to see it in the trailer
burnt goblet
Heck yeah
west crow
you LIKE a3?
pastel ice
Red pill or blue pill
burnt goblet
Yes
rain heron
wait a sec
west crow
6 minutes to find a code in the room you're in?
burnt goblet

atomic escarp
A3 is pretty fun ngl
burnt goblet
Easy
rain heron
chargers are back in this rundown
tight knot
how feel D1
hexed vapor
Lmao, are you people actually struggling with the time limits?
west crow
it's extremely easy
hexed vapor
Bro, this ain't shit.
tight knot
i only see the new environment on A1 and D1
burnt goblet
Plenty of time to find loot and get the codes
atomic escarp
F
west crow
they are very generous with the diet d2
I feel like they were supposed to spawn in multiple places
I had them spawn directly infront of me for most of it
and one spawn behind
burnt goblet
Yea, they usually only come through the way back to spawn
rain heron
lmao
burnt goblet
You just hold them at that door
west crow
it's worse than r1b2
burnt goblet
Pull back if needed
tight knot
i think the last door is a safe scan so just pull it
and found it was a alarm door ,lol
burnt goblet
But that alarm door isn't that bad
west crow
note on R3B1? go for the escape zone done first
tight knot
die together or live together
burnt goblet
Make sure you do all alarms before the terminal
west crow
you can get the terminal afterwards and have a straight path
it's a weird gotcha but not too hard to work around
burnt goblet
We fucked up and didn't do the big alarm door to the evac zone and did both terminals, died doing the alarm door
west crow
we are not strategizing A2
tight knot
alram enemies are really less than R2
burnt goblet
I almost died from falling into the fog in A2
west crow
I was lucky enough to notice the extraction alarm door
burnt goblet
I took two steps and disappeared
atomic escarp
F
west crow
did that before the terminal ones
pastel ice
What you mean @tight knot
hexed vapor
@feral token
AR: 50/100/150/200
Revolver: 20/40/57 (57 is max)
burnt goblet
Triangulation was my least favorite level in r2
west crow
that's why they made triangulation lite
west crow
which one is b1?
sly gale
I liked triangulation
burnt goblet
Sacrifice
west crow
not R2, R3
tight knot
@pastel ice we are holding for the next alarm,and my teammate pull the alarm door,so you know
burnt goblet
Uea
west crow
ah okay
burnt goblet
Pathfinder 2.0
tight knot
b1 not have enough ammo,if you don't save it
west crow
you should be fine if you manage well
burnt goblet
A1-A2 definitely possible solo, I'll probably do it later
pastel ice
But mob cap never changed?
burnt goblet
Yea
tight knot
yep
burnt goblet
Mhm
west crow
I feel like there really isn't anything new in this rundown
atomic escarp
whats the objective in D1?
west crow
turn the alarm off by stabbing the baby
atomic escarp
I see
atomic escarp
thanks
burnt goblet
STAB THE BABY
west crow
D1 is neat
it's horrible bugged though
so if you want to take your chances go for it
I'm sure there's a patch coming soon
mellow creek
yea
burnt goblet
Hopefully

boss is too fat to climb stairs btw

i like D1

LIST, QUERY, AND PING my man
sacred slate
has anyone tested the hel rifle on scouts?
burnt goblet
Yes
drowsy juniper
it one shots scouts the HEL rifle
burnt goblet
Headshots them
sacred slate
just wanted to make sure
burnt goblet
Hel rifle is really good
hexed vapor
HEL rifle does 40 damage, which is enough to one-shot to the face.
Not back, though.
sacred slate
wasn't positive and didn't want to pull a stupid
lyric narwhal
yes hel rifle is a one shot to scouts on head
burnt goblet
Yea
atomic escarp
yes but lowered ammo cap
burnt goblet
96 now I think
lyric narwhal
yeah now it one shots big strikers with backhead shots
burnt goblet
Yea they took away the ammo it got in the patch before r3
It's still gonna get outclassed by the hel rifle tho
eternal acorn
is the burst cannon good?
indigo lantern
but honestly R3A1 looks good
burnt goblet
Ah yes the Revolver, the one weapon I never used more then 3 times
burnt goblet
Headshots
burnt goblet
Ah so the damage is good enough to one shot them anywhere now nice
drowsy juniper
Any effective method for quickly taking out the mother?
burnt goblet
Havnt played it enough to get a good strat
craggy summit
C1 is definitely a big nostalgia trip for people who’ve been around since alpha
frank mauve
@drowsy juniper 870 the sacks, and c-foam helps a little bit.
lyric narwhal
would it be better to just hammer the babies?
frank mauve
Combat shotgun or whatever, make sure to focus those sacks before the mother pops out babies
babies are a little difficult to hammer, i haven'tr tried it myself
drowsy juniper
doesn't the mother pop them out right away?
frank mauve
not if you focus fire on those sacks
lyric narwhal
personally im more consistent hammering them than shooting them
frank mauve
some will spawn, but it's better than dealing with the full amount
other real pros may tell you some secret to them
but that's all i know and how i dealt with it
frank mauve
depends
indigo lantern
oh ho ho nice
frank mauve
i think green and yellow do the same thing, haven't come across a green one
burnt goblet
But since there are only 2 lab levels, you'll only get to use them a limited number of times unfortunately
burnt goblet
Well that's if you replay it
mossy yoke
There's only 2 syringes, a green/yellow color and a red one
jolly raven
So no medkit in r3?
burnt goblet
Lol there's medkits
frank mauve
no there's still medkits
sacred slate
stupid question, but is the burst sentry a viable option now?
burnt goblet
Meh
sacred slate
ok
indigo lantern
I guess it's not that great
jolly raven
Whew
burnt goblet
Still outclassed by shotgun sentry
sacred slate
good to know
burnt goblet
Burst had it's uses in r2 but it chews Through ammo very quickly
Personally, I only used them during motion doors on r2b1
Even though one well placed mine will take out Majority if not all of the smaller enemies
And with consumable trip mines now, you can really do some damage
mellow creek
@drowsy juniper just run to it/ wait for it to spawn small shits, shoot the small shits then shoot the mothership
drowsy juniper
is there a cooldown after it spawns them?
mellow creek
yes
theres a down time but she will throw a smokescreen
that u cant see even 1cm infront of u unless u have fog repellers
drowsy juniper
alright thanks for that ill try it next time
rain heron
so the mother emits the fog??
mossy yoke
that's a feature I mean we're working on narrowing down the repro steps to that bug to get that fixed.

@mellow creek ok thank you very much we shot it so hard and it didn't went down

so you need to shoot the blobs?

@mellow creek so shooting the "head" doesn't affect it?

lilac jackal
made that mistake once - not going back
midnight turret
might be more but was only 4 big chonkers for me
lmfao
most of them where spread out so i got lucky
but yea you should def solo it
lilac jackal
i was doing it solo minding my own business, was not expecting the neonate to spawn anything because i'm smooth brained apparently. still trying to solo a1, wanna die

i should prooobably beat it before i try solo

i think i missed the trailer becoz im stupid
midnight turret
i thonkin B1 gonna be hard
lilac jackal
imma go watch it
midnight turret
gonna retry to solo A3 soonish
burnt goblet
It's like triangulation from r2, minus the shadows and 1 terminal
burnt goblet
A3 might be tough
The amount of enemies that spawn, you'll run out of ammo before you can kill all of them
burnt goblet
Yea lol
burnt goblet
I almost soloed A1 on my first try lol
burnt goblet
I exactly
midnight turret
cant 10+ at once
burnt goblet
Large amount of enemies

maybe i can train them like i did in A2

Yea probablem is that you'll get overwhelmed easily

Literally me and my group went into the big room in A2, I took like 5 steps and then I was GONE

LMFAO I felt that when i soloed it

i was on 3 running from the big boys and died from fall damage lel
midnight turret
lol
burnt goblet
Then one of my buddies fell in trying to save me and we both got like 40 infection trying to find the ladder
Yeah
midnight turret
they sould make it if you get 100 infec you become, a sleeper
burnt goblet
Literally can't crouch in A2
And they put a lot of big guys in there, like power corrupts levels of big guys
atomic escarp
1st time I completed A2 I forgot about the first cell in 124
midnight turret
i didnt run into any big guys on a2
i mean i ran into at least 1, but didnt see anymore till extract

Not even @ start??
atomic escarp
so the deepest door in A2 we went in full infection

my first room literally had like 10
safe plume
yeah me 2
midnight turret
only ones i saw was 1 at start and 1 at extract
burnt goblet
Power corrupts is fun but it had a lot of big guys
lilac jackal
i liked the scout room, that was it
atomic escarp
we had 5 shooters and 4 striker giants in my playthrough
burnt goblet
I personally liked septic, I loved the going through the fog while killing enemies
midnight turret
yea in a1 i had the striker gaints
burnt goblet
Thank God that last alarm door wasn't that long
Unlike sacrifices alarm door with like 7 different scans
lilac jackal
haa
atomic escarp
ye
lilac jackal
b1 before nerf >
burnt goblet
I didn't get to play r2 until about a week before r3
atomic escarp
sad I didn't get to play B1 prenerf with my skills now
burnt goblet
Since I was busy and didn't have any reliable players
lilac jackal
sad I didn't get to play B1 prenerf with my skills now
felt this, i sucked when r2 was first out and now im like, almost sorta competent? got carried pre nerf lmao
burnt goblet
Then there was the pile of dog shit that was triangulation (hated R2C2)
midnight turret
time to shit on rainbow and be the kooaid man
lilac jackal
wasnt triangulation c1? c2 was ???
burnt goblet
Yea
safe plume
yes
verbal otter
whats an iix syringe
burnt goblet
??? Was fun, c1 was basically Pathfinder with extra steps and shadow enemies
burnt goblet
Well our first attempt failed when we found out about the shadows
midnight turret
i think ima play Witcher 3 death martch
lilac jackal
c1 to me was just scout practice, kinda boring ngl
midnight turret
^
burnt goblet
Pathfinder with extra steps
lilac jackal
eeeeexactly
lilac jackal
are you having a stroke
midnight turret
"It’s hard to believe that it’s already been 5 years since Geralt of Rivia embarked on his last epic adventure. "
last
yes i loved the series
burnt goblet
Ha, you liked the terminals? Guess what, now you have 3 of them, plus instead of normal enemies, let's put shadows in there instead"
lilac jackal
i absolutely loved the terminals, but pathfinder was perfect imo. they couldn't have done better and c1 felt like overkill
burnt goblet
Normal enemies instead of shadows would of made it good
Putting shadows on c level didn't feel right
lilac jackal
yeah, should have saved it for d, would have made the progression to big shadows more natural i think
atomic escarp
at the end though
atomic escarp
especially when 4 shotty sentry was still meta
burnt goblet
"Where's the enemies--What did i get hit by? Where are th--THEY ARE INVISIBLE!" Team panics
Good times
midnight turret
eso not fun
lilac jackal
my experience was that someone thought someone was friendly firing them out of existence and they ended up killing eachother lmao
atomic escarp
lol
unborn elbow
Does anybody know what the new enemy is yet/ what level it’s on?
atomic escarp
B2 and D1 iirc
unborn elbow
Do you know what the gimmick is or is it better as a surprise?
safe plume
better as a suprise imo
unborn elbow
Hmmm... ok. B2 isn’t very far anyways. Are they better or worse than shadows?
In terms of difficulty
lilac jackal
spoil it for me folks, i wanna know the deets because it'll be a while before i get there
atomic escarp
at least you can see them
unborn elbow
😬😬😬
burnt goblet
There's technically 2 new enemies
unborn elbow
O shit
atomic escarp
@unborn elbow They are basically a mini Boss. If you don't kill all the blobs on it, it shits out more fog and little Babies. They straight up nerfed Kiting. It's much more skillful now.
unborn elbow
Wow
burnt goblet
Yea
wispy nova
Man, R3A2 was such a good level, it almost feels like I've played it before 🤔
atomic escarp
devs answered the prayers of some who wanted a bossfight
burnt goblet
Lot of recycled areas
atomic escarp
A2 you mean diet D1?
burnt goblet
Saves time I guess
modest pine
is there an estimate for how long this rundown will last for? i thought the shorter rundowns would have a shorter allotted time to complete it
atomic escarp
Pretty sure they recycled em so that people wouldn’t feel left out on the previous rundown by making baby versions of em
burnt goblet
Guessing around 2-3 months
atomic escarp
Like 2montsh to 3.
atomic escarp
So it's a long time.
modest pine
with 1 d level and 1 c level
lilac jackal
how long did r2 last??? it felt so short
burnt goblet
If they are following a pattern, next one won't be until August-September
devout river
like around 2 months I think
modest pine
r2 had a good amount of time for it
atomic escarp
@lilac jackal Month.
burnt goblet
2 months
March to june
Well
Came out on March 21 I think, so 2 and a half months
atomic escarp
I reckon they might be pushing themselves to hard with the work
atomic escarp
The new Kiting mechanics are sure going to be that extra high skill now for players. If you see them doing good, you now know they are good players without a doubt.
lilac jackal
okay 2 1/2 months makes sense if r3 will be around 2 months
modest pine
as cool and new as this is, to have this for the same length of time as r2 feels wrong
atomic escarp
painting mechanics????
lilac jackal
completely agree @modest pine
i would think r3 would be short, but i dont want the devs to overwork themselves yknow?
burnt goblet
I reckon that r4 will be late August or mid September
atomic escarp
@atomic escarp fuck auto correct. It's kiting I ment.
muted oyster
They need to space out rundowns to 3-5 months. Id prefer more polish than pushed out rundowns
lilac jackal
what are the new kiting mechanics? didnt notice anything different
atomic escarp
paint your mask with the blood of the neonate HSU
lilac jackal
bru h
modest pine
oh really
burnt goblet
If you have lots of ammo or health, chances are you need to get through a alarm door
lilac jackal
can they go behind more efficiently? cant just skrrt through waves anymore?
modest pine
you cant run through them effectively anymore i guess
atomic escarp
@atomic escarp You done D1 yet?
burnt goblet
I don't think you can even dash back to avoid the tongues anymore
atomic escarp
Nah as far as I can see and tell going behind em still works wonders when avoiding the attacks
lilac jackal
speaking of bunnyhopping, did they fix the glitch where you stop randomly while jumping sometimes?
atomic escarp
Wanna team up Warden for D1? And yes, bunny hopping is the way to go with the new Kiting. I still haven't gotten used to it.
Eh never found the bunny hopping useful before still haven’t found a use for it now
I thought the only diff between sliding and Bhopping was you can fire your gun when sliding
F
Just running through em still works for me
modest pine
well now i gotta practise bhopping
atomic escarp
you can Bhop stealth kill
Yes, I think they have made jumping more important now to do it. I've actually started sliding much more.
Sliding really helps as well.
midnight turret
I SOLED IT
midnight turret
a 3
lilac jackal
NICE
atomic escarp
Ah, that's a good map to solo.
atomic escarp
@midnight turret You're legit Plant's disciple.
burnt goblet
I almost soloed A1 of r3 the first try I played it
modest pine
did u use mines for a3
midnight turret
yea A1 100% soloable
burnt goblet
Died on the final part
midnight turret
yea i did
i used shooty machine first
didnt go out, good
failed pretty bad lmfao
modest pine
what primaries and secondaries are good guys
midnight turret
i stick to the legendary AR
modest pine
is there a clear hierarchy
burnt goblet
Bullpup is gonna be the new meta is seems like
modest pine
i really like the bullpup
torn with the secondaries
is the overpen good on the HEL weps?
burnt goblet
Depends on the legel
midnight turret
gonna try bullpup on b
atomic escarp
I don't think so since it has an abysmal reload time
burnt goblet
Level*
devout river
I been using burst cannon and carbine maybe I should try the bullpup
atomic escarp
SMG is still better than bullpuo in my opinion.
midnight turret
uwu
burnt goblet
Gah, smg. I hate it
atomic escarp
but bullpup is a good primary
lilac jackal
still an smg whore ngl
midnight turret
my coc is usefull in d1
atomic escarp
more of a carbine bitch
burnt goblet
All my homies hate the smg
lilac jackal
how do you use bullpup effectively? i've been struggling
atomic escarp
@atomic escarp How do you deal the with Giants InD1? I've only gotten to the 3rd team scan. My team's still hasn't learnt the path yet.
burnt goblet
Bullpup is basically a better ar, better accuracy slighty less ammo but if you're good you can make it last longer than the AR
atomic escarp
Yes, I know. But you run out of ammo so quick, especially with the need to kiting.
Usaully I just go gauses gun as the giant hitter.
safe plume
r2c2
midnight turret
burnt goblet
R2c2
atomic escarp
Yes, we also meleed a lot of the waves. It's troubling when there are giants everywhere. And now you just can't run past them like last rundown.
burnt goblet
Aka get in there and start running
lilac jackal
i miss c2 d1
atomic escarp
Yeah, same here. I need to remember the correct path still.
There's a few doors that just want to kill you.
My 1st 3 hours in R3 we played with 1 bio always since we thought there would be shadows
Apparently there's a new type of door in D1 as well. So I can't wait for that to fuck us!
we were wrong but we got thorough A1-3 with a biotracker
burnt goblet
I remember the first time seeing the motion doors on sacrifice
atomic escarp
I don't know, but I remember someone saying there was on this chat.
Could be a little prank
But you never know
Although if it true wonder how the door would work
burnt goblet
Imagine a door where the big circle moves so you have to stay in the circle as it moves to get the scan done
atomic escarp
I know that we see the second variant of the bither in D1.
Yeah, the community still hasn't learnt the weak spot of it yet and how to approach.
I womder if sniper is useful against it?
burnt goblet
If there even is a weak spot
atomic escarp
There is, you have to shoot the blobs on it. But I'm talking about if there is another easier one
Well rip
These Devs really like making our lives harder lol
As much as I dislike the new Kiting mechanics it was a much needed change.
muted oyster
i disagree
burnt goblet
Well hopefully the next rundown is harder because r3 is definitely way easier than r2
muted oyster
rundown 002 turned this game into another L4d2 clone... GTFO needs to stand out for its own ideas and not become another run n gun game
