yes
Does anyone play on Nintendo
wdym
if you’re asking if there are people on this server who play on switch yeah
if you’re looking for ppl to play with on switch go to #lfg-switch-ror2
Bro you can’t say the n word like that
Hi me and my friend on Xbox have been trying to play RoR2 for the past 3 days but every time we try to join it keeps disconnecting us
Are you doing private games or trying to do it on a public match?
Private
Hm... I think it might just be connection errors. Maybe try disconnecting your internet and reconnecting. If not maybe whoever is hosting is having the issue
We have both restarted our routers, reset our Xbox’s, closed the game, and uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times
But our other friends can play and connect just fine but me and my friend can’t be in the same game for some reason
Yeah i got nothin
How do i loop to the start again for the portal to spawn?
Get to sky meadows
Interact with the stone ring thing around the teleporter, they should move and line up, in the chatbox in the corner it will say the teleporter aligns with the planet (by default it will say align with the moon and that sends you to fight mithrix). Just beat the teleporter when it says it aligns with the planet, and it starts you back on the loop
Meaning after i activate the teleporter in sky meadows and defeated the boss,i activate the stone ring at the corner instead of the middle?
You can also do the bulwark event to loop
Yeah
Ok,thx guys,i try that later
By stone ring i mean this btw in case i wasn't clear with it
I interact with that yesterday and it brings me to the final boss fight
I need to interact at the side right?
yea if you interact with the outer prongs then they will change and the teleported will more resemble the standard ones, the gsme will tell you the teleported aligns with the planet and you will continue looping
when they’re in a spiral like that they lead to commencement (the final stage
^ yeah, I myself played risk of rain 2 on ps4 before the anniversary update and when I finally got access I had no clue how to loop for a hot minute
I search online for it doesnt explain well
It seems to explain well but maybe just missed it honestly
I cant post pic here
Online doesnt say to intereact with the side of the teleporter
Ok so the thing in the middle of it, the bird fountain bowl lookin thing, is what you interact with to start the fight. The little stone prong ring thats around it is what you interact with
Not sure if he gets it but
You gotta click on the things on the edge, not the middle. When it asks if you wanna start the teleporter its the wrong thing
That and it has to align with the planet, aka you're looping. You can always put it back before the fight
Uh..to summary,when i reach sky meadows,i need to activate the teleporter in the middle,fight the boss and when teleporter reach 100%,i interact with the side of the portal instead of the middle right?
if you want to loop you gotta make sure to hit the prongs/sides of the teleporter before activating it - you should get text that says something like "The primordial teleporter aligns with the planet..." and the spiraling prongs should align in a shape like the teleporters in all the other stages 👍
Pain what do you play on. If you are on xbox i can show you
Switch console
Nvm,i watch some YT video on that,lol
Alrighty. Got any more questions?
Not at the moment,thx guys for the replies,appreciate
good luck looping!! 
Not a problem bro, gotta help eachother out where we can my guy. Have some fun on your runs!
I gonna play around with other characters 1st before i decide which character role to choose,lol
You can just choose multiple if you want
Oh by the way
What character have you been maining so far?
Bandit rn
Aaah
Trying to unlock mercenary and engineer next
I only have 5 characters unlock rn,2 default,bandit,mult and captain
You might wanna do it on an easier difficulty since their requirements are super tedious
I need to play and learn more abt this gamr
Obliteration is all the way on stage 8 and I think for engie you need a bunch of drones and minions
This rougelike is different from other rougelike i played
Oh yeah when you go to the shop there's another portal for the void challenge, you can get 10 items there but its kinda risky depending on how deep you're in
Yeah risk of rain has a learning curve thats pretty fuckin hard not gonna lie. Just always remember, SPEED IS KEY
Don't be too fast because you need items
But don't scan the same stage for half an hour cause you're not gonna grab every atom
You are gonna need that mobility to survive, nearly all the characters rely on mobility to hust avoid damage. Engineer is the exception somewhat, but it is still important. Take your time and figure out your character and the enemies and you'll be good to go in no time
I say spend like a good four five minutes on a level
On bigger levels its obvious gonna take longer though
By the 4 minute mark you should have at least found or started the teleporter
Yeah some levels are a bit of a pain to find the tp tho
I am usually trying to pick up items and gain sone levels before i proceed to the next map
Levels aren't as important imo. You usually get by pretty easily by just killing enemies for money and by then you have your levels
I don't notice much though
Ic,so most important is the items,so what level are u guys usually at when reaching the final boss?
Honestly level doesn't matter too much, but i say the minimum would be like level 10
Whenever I see, I'm around 40ish maybe
The most important items depends on your strat and your character. If you're an aggressive mercenary then I would recommend high mobility (obviously) and super high attack speed since you reload way faster
40? The highest i only reach is 16
You play on drizzle normally?
Easy mode 1st
Do i need to farm for that artifical that allow me to choose item? Is that important?
Oh command?
Honestly I don't like it cause it makes runs way too easy
Its unnecessary too since its there to mix things up mostly
I saw some video of farming specify item for the character,but every runs item are all rng,u cant choose from the chest,only trading in the printer
Im playing right now, on monsoon at stage 3 and im at level nine rn. At this rate if i wanted to charge the boss without farming for a level i would be at around this point
He was probably using sacrifice too. It gets rid of chests and chance shrines but enemies drop items at random
Or was it a challenge type thing?
Oh yeah, you need codes for them. They're scattered around the map but they don't tell you what the artifact is until you get there
I have the pic of the code,lol
Also an important tip for bandit, attack speed is what dictates how fast you reload your gun, took me forever to figure out what attack speed did for tbem
Oh lort 
I always run to the back of the boss and just deal crit dmg,works fine everytime
Yeah thats his passive, its normal
He's the only one that has it though so that kinda sucks
Makes him special
Yeah,its really a useful passive
It's rare, but if you get the boss item called shatterspleen (from the giant imp) it makes all crits make a stack of bleeding. So as bandit.... You get where im going with this
He has a good AOE skill attack as well
I'm always sticking with my boy acrid though
Acrid? The monster that deal poison dmg right? Haven unlock that yet,its mostly melee attack
Yeah its him. Thing is he's mixed melee but you can choose to be passive since he has ranged options
But unlocking him isn't too bad, it just takes time
I basically search throu all the different character and items before i purchase the game,lol
Abit spoiler but at least i prepare 1st,lol
Oh speaking of first
For some reason the physical copy comes with both games
In the digital store its like 15 bucks
Yeah,i brought the digital one instead,rip
Ooof
Does ror1 has 4 player multiplayer online too?
Think so. I don't see anyone on it though
Most are playing ror2 online ig
Is there anyway to stop yourself from getting evaporated? I hit a point where all enemies were bosses and I had a super op item combination and within one millisecond got evaporated on drizzle
Or do I just have to hope for a dio’s friend sometimes
Ahem
Skissue
On a real note tho just play play and play gathering experience is the best way to survive
I mean that's just the ROR2 experience, past a certain point balance is thrown out the window
Even on drizzle
who has the highest base dps on just m1
dio's is good but don't think I have a dio's i am immortal cause I won't die a second time theres a clip I can't find it of rndthursday having 3 dios and dying back to back on each one if you die once when you respawn you probably will die again if it was bad enough you died in it already but don't waste your dio's on silly stuff I have extra life my run can't end I won't ever truly die
Mult with saw
If we ignore the frame perfect tech captain has
And if we ignore heretic
Ok,i just unlock the engineer,actually how does it works? The primary grenade dmg is abit low,is turret the main dmg?
That turret is now your best friend. ALL of the items you pick up will also be applied to your turrets when you put them down
Max turret deploy is only 2?
Get a bustling fungus and your turrets will always have the aoe heal area which makes them super tanky. Get a sticky bomb and your turrets will be able to make things get sticky bombs with its shots. Etc etc
Trust me 2 is more than enough
Ok,so the main dmg for engineer is mainly on turret and mines?
Pretty much yeah
What about those drone that u pick up,does ur items applied to them as well?
But remember that doesn't mean your main shooting ability is useless. You can charge it up to full to shoot a bunch of them or just tap the trigger to make it fire two of them. And no basic drones don't get the affect
I think only thing you get that can apply to drones is something like the captain’s starting item but even then idk if it actually does now
So hes basically the necromancer class in D3
Guess so.
Trust me once you get used to it its a lot easier then you will think
Just remember one thing, engi is SLOW
Cant say ive tried engineer much but seems like it could get busted surprisingly quick
Correct
If i were to land 2 turrets,i cant activate another one right? 1 of them need to be destroy before i can activate again?
Get an item with a proc and you immediately got 3 sources of it to proc
You try and put down a third and it would automatically destroy one
It cycles I believe, evaporates the oldest and places a new one
What Elmer said
Would be a bit annoying if you had to wait for one to die to move turrets
Fair, the mines are useful too
The mines you start with suck a lot tbh. If you can get the replacement get it IMMEDIATELY
Spider mines instead. They do a lil crawley crawl
Oof,i need to defeat the boss within 5 second when spawn for it to unlock
Read a bit on wiki about engineer and yeah definitely could get busted real quick with procs
Oh trust me its easier then you think with bandit all you need to do to get it is to try and get it on level three or four. Best way i figured to do it is to go to the abyss and get that guaranteed red item, hope its a brilliant behemoth, and try to stack up those items
Not bandit i meant to say engineer. Worst comes to worst get multiplayer
I can use bandit to unlock engineer skills?
I misspoke, meant to say engineer
Ive never done mp, does the boss health/challenges scale with amount of players?
No
Oh,ok,i choose multiplayer a few times,the max players i found is only 2,lol
Challenge that scales with it is prices of items. Drones increase in price
Okay thats fair enough then
Pain you on xbox? I can help you get it when i get off work tonight
I on switch
Dam
I assume there isnt any sort of crossplay between consoles
Definitely not for switch
I mean i think there is for quickplay but for setting up lobbies its harder
Quickplay always start countdown when theres 2 players
Would be better to have cr8 a lobby to wait for at least 3 or 4 players before u start
Eyup
The good thing about engineer is u dont actually need to focus on aiming,aiming on switch device is meh
Got a bustling fungus printer first match of engineer in days
Pog,whats the max amount of fungus a player can carry?
Good question because ive found a second printer of it on stage 4 and im tempted to use all my grays on it
Theres must a cap on the fungus healing ig
So far with like 6 its already strong enough to out heal starting stone golems with ease
Well ive got 24 and a dream
I tired to enter the obelisk but my run was not completed and i was spawn to an area with a boss,it doesnt unlock the mercenary
News flash
There is in fact no limit to the shrooms
Technically there is but its the 32 iinteger bit limit and by the time you reach that number the game would have crashed trying to render it
Sauce, shrine of order on engineer just gave me 54 mushrooms and then i got one shot before i could place my turrets
So far ive got a ton of items and 31 shrooms with a 118:32 minute run
Ive hit a point where everything explodes and my console cooks itself with frame loss
I then proceeded to run up to a ton of wandering vagrants with a little too much confidence and got instantly evaporated even through my shield
You didn't obliterate, thats why. It literally says you have to obliterate to get him
did you have the beads of fealty...?
He said the run wasn't done so he probably looped
Oh wait
No he did loop, he just died to the boss
Keep playing the game until you get “a celestial portal appears” then beat the tp and go through said portal where you’ll be able to obliterate
"enter the obelisk" would imply at least attempting to obliterate, so i figured maybe they went to AMW on accident or something
Oh yeah forgot about the beads
The fact that I literally figured it out by myself after wasting 7 coins for them is astonishing 
did you at least beat the scav
I still need to do the scav because up until last night kept avoiding obliteration to work on unlocks then got what I wanted and got evaporated on stage 23 or so
rip
Died the first two times, third time I beat it on multiplayer
I did this, first time I entered AMW I kinda flipped
Does the debug console on ps4 work if you connect a keyboard?
I knew what it was but I never knew how to get in prior
Don't think console can even do it
I tried it, if you press the ‘ key it brings it up, you just cant type.
A friend who got me into the game suggested I go in as blind as possible, and I’m glad I did, discovering things in this game is a hoot
Your first god run is always hype
It truly was, even if it ended abruptly it really hooked me
It honestly is a vibe, I bought it ro2 from a gamestop for super cheap and played ro1 for awhile then randomly hopped over to ro2 and ive been hooked as well
Cant tell which character is my favorite
Shrine of order gave me 17 rusted keys lmao, first ever shrine of order too
Hey folks, I'm getting myself ready to write an Acrid guide, and was curious for those of you who play console, how does he feel to you?
Awesome 
Best character
Good reliable dps, works especially well against large crowds if you give them a bear or two
He's alright, fun to go in and dick around because he's hybrid and his slams are good. Great crowd control and ok single target
His jump still sends you way too far on console but other than that he's pretty nice
He has more mobility than loader bc of the bug and he has slightly better Regen then he used to
Finally unlock mercenary,i have a hard time jumping the platform in the obelisk stage using engineer,lol
Guys how do I get irradent pearl with the console bug?
Ping the pool and it'll say which one it is
i am currently trying to beat atleast eclipse 1 on every character but i suck at bandit. any tips for him?
Not really since I don't really play much bandit. All I know is the shotgun shot is better than the rifle
Which turret skill is actually better for engineer? The stationary or the moving ones?
Stationary turns on bungus and is immune to knockback
Moving turrets let you go around the map without having to place more
Both are good choices
Engineer movement is very slow,is there some items to make him move faster?
We have the energy drink, goat hoof and red whip, pretty sure they're the only mobility items in the game but the first two are grays
By the way, the mag clip and hardlight afterburner don't do anything for the turrets since their only attack is an m1
Does the game normally crash at 120 mins? My switch literally crashed because It imploded on itself trying to render everything
It seems like consoles have a tendency to crash but I've also seen some other people go for like 100 stages on switch and it didn't crash
So really it's just an enigma
I personally never had my switch crash in the past for like 30-40 stages
Only a weird softlock state where I couldn't interact with anything nor be hurt by almost anything
Probably just funky console code that'll get fixed when we get the dlc
Perhaps we'll get split screen coop one day.
Local coop be like
Dang never knew how strong loader could be
strongest character in the game
Thought multi was the best
Is mult with retool good?
Ok,i tried playing with mercenary last night,had a hard time trying to master his playstyle.
I just unlocked merc yesterday I’m pretty bad with him
His attack is faster but sometimes i dont know what i am hitting,lol
I wanna know if u can press jump after skill to contiune his airborne combo?
Think ive now become a loader main
Vibing with getting even just one back up mag and becoming Spider-man
Do monsters get harder past level 99 on console? I'm not sure If console works differently to pc and there is a difficulty cap
Welcome to the club B)
Is it normal that commencement has elites
should be, only place i've seen perfected elites spawn
No but like Blazing
Loop 1 elites i mean
Hello
no there should only be perfected
Don't you love it when people actively try to yoink your items 
Like they grab items for extra speed simply to get free shit
Switch Version must be buggy then
Because every time I go there Blazing Chimeras just fuck me over
as all console versions are
yes
that
- blazing and overloading are stronger than they should be
another console bug.
fire trails do insane damage, overloading orbs apply twice
Oh that's why i get killed in one hit by overloading
yep
if you wanna know what all the console bugs are check the pinned messages in #ror2-bug-reports-console
Aight thanks
wow you got 100min more then i get some times
i think it scales the same way as the steam version, with the lvl. 99 just being a visual thing when the enemies are actually getting harder past 99
i don't see why it would be different but im not sure
Best fix for console: play ror1 it's a great game too
Proabably the fact that console is sort of different from the pc editions, and that'll proabably be patched in the dlc update
It's confirmed that lvl 99 is the hard cap. Monsters do not get stronger from there. Instead the directors build up more credits to spawn harder enemies at first
the level cap used to be like 94 then it went to 99 in the anniversary update
Is this just for switch, or for everything?
it seems like in the DLC the level will be uncapped tho
everything
Hey gabbo
yo
What about the monster scaling? the wiki says they gain 30% stats, but they all have base levels and numbers that increase per level
uhhhhhhhhhhhh no clue
Looking ripped 
I do know that special bosses like AWU and Mithrix have infinite special scaling that goes beyond the lvl 99 cap
No homo tho
ofc ofc
Whoops, the 30% boost was from the difficulty easy--> mediun
Reading your about me I can tell your a degener- I mean man of culture like me gabbo
🤠
nah not me chief
Chill bro it was just a hypothetical
Also, will split screen be released in this new update? Is it really that hard to implement?
most likely not
I thought It's just literally mirroring the screen to below
and uhhhh idk if it's hard to implement
I think I heard that there's an unusued split screen function in the game and someone modded it in?
Yea, I think the devs might have actually forgot about it
Is the Irradiated Pearl chances 20% on switch?
Cos I’ve been dumping lunars into the pool for four hours, gotten 80 pearls but no I. Pearls
Not sure if it got bumped up like on pc but we do know that on console they don't reroll at all
If it's a pearl you will only get pearls
It won't reroll on console
Same if you get irradiant as your first one
It will always be irradiants
Ow, that’s painful
Also you can still ping cleansing pools to see what comes out
I’ve wasted four hours lmao
Yeahhhhh
But hey at least there's the one positive bug that pinving the pools still shows you what comes out
Aye, true
software closes due to error
Mithrix saw my mountains of items, ran while he could
Does aim assist works with mercenary? i never notice any difference with melee character
Is it just me, or when I use multi's power mode I'm like "Chad mode activated"
Ay anyone one having problems with connecting
connecting with?
Xbox to any of the lobbies
Hypothetically, what happened If ROR2 had some for of progression in the new update, something like relics for a small but permanent boost
Sounds like a shit idea
And how so?
I wouldn’t want any permanent boosts to my character like In hades or dead cells just not that type of game
Yea, guess you're right
Though sometimes the run can feel meaningless, since it's the exact same thing
I haven’t had a run that’s felt super similar to another but that’s me
I mean it'd be cool if you could toggle them on or off
At that point its just a reverse artifact
Artifacts are not like this at all oh my goddddd
People gotta stop thinking of artifacts as nothing but positive buffs
Literally the only positive one without any drawbacks is command
You collect them mid run, you can turn them on and off and it makes the run less fun
The others are either purely more difficult or they come with a drawback
Oh so like kin? 
Just don’t think it fits ror2
Why would ror need a skill tree?
What if right, you know, just don’t put in a skill tree
If this game had a skill tree, it would likely be pure buffs unless you decide on locking down more moves than just the alts
Does aim assist affect mercenary skill?
Skill in general or certain moves?
Laser sword and the dashing skill
The one that can dash 3 times in success,binding assualt
I assume not since most of his moves can't shift in another direction midair
Ok,thx
Granted I've been noticing a pattern
For some reason, stage 1 always has 4 to 7 items no matter what, the only determining factor seems to be chance shrines
Do you think switch will be optimized? Since the game gets pretty laggy after one loop
There's supposed to be a thing where everyone catches up so when it comes then maybe
I just wish we had quality settings
Q2 2022 will push an update and supposedly it’s supposed to help the problems
Emphasis on supposedly
Just like last update

Switch needs two still 
Great
At least when hopoo tells they're going to do something they actually do it
It just takes time
Well, unless we're talking about split screen, never was implemented apparently
kinda wanna plat the game since im close
Clicking RS should allow for a short-range melee attack - like a pistol whip as Commando - that can’t proq but can still kill
im missing 11 trophies for play risk of rain
Pfp fits
yo imma be dodging all non-dev spoilers until the dlc comes out for console
so like i'll leave the server once the dlc is out on pc
How do i guarantee a spawn on siren call on stage 4? Or its random?
e
You gotta break the eggs. They're kinda hard to miss since they blend in but just keep cracking nests open until it spawns in.
I know the eggs thingy but i always get other map in stage 4 instead of siren call,i am trying to unlock loader
Only way to increase your chances for sirens call is going Bazar after stage 3 and hoping that it will be one of the options
Otherwise it's pure rng so just spam
Ok,thx
3D printer will not spawn when u use command?
It can but its useless
I am using engineer with command but i cant find any 3d printer for fungus
Can i get fungus from chest?
It can't
Ye it's a white item 
Do i need to unlock it first for it to appear in the chest or its default?
Remember when switch had a flaming magma worm at one point 
I got mine too
man fuck prismatic trials
Frrrr
I wish the game was less laggy
I wish we got the patches back
I wish the patches fix the lag
Cause really, looping isn't possible on switch because of that
I lost my only difficulty lvl 99 run to a lag spike
i was playing on ps4 and i activated 3 combat altars at once
worst decision of my life
Me everytime i die by a bug
https://c.tenor.com/K9-SqJMNjkEAAAAM/emotional-damage.gif
I'm conviced Wisps have the most circular hitbox ever
I can never jump onto these things
Only time I even noticed they had one was a time in void fields where they had so much movement speed they ran under me and lifted me up
Just did a teleporter with double mountain and got a ton of squid polyps as a reward. Wouldve been fine with anything else lmao and just “oops only squid polyps”
Recycler moment
It looks like a couch cushion
CGI Bread
It looks like it could also be a really weird mousepad
Ok,i just unlock acrid,what items should i focus on? Focus crystal and attack speed?
goat hoof and uke. mainly focus proc chaining and when you get the chance get trans and visions of heresy
Hey so…. I’m having issues with the whole heretic thing. How are you supposed to unlock it? Google says get the blockade breaker which I already have but… what next? Just missing the essence of heresy
Just get all the heresy items, thats it. They're all lunars too

These are the items you wanna get
Also bleed and gasoline are pretty good whites if you run poison
So which is actually better? Poison or blight?
Personal preference tbh
Poison will eventually start doing massive damage because it will deal 1% of the enemy's max hp per second
Blight is like a weaker bleed that can be stacked, deals less damage than it and cannot be refreshed like bleed
Though blight is higher dps than poison unless you're fighting against mithrix or awu
Oh yeah if you go blight then
kinda gooooooood
I just now found out that when using vengeance as engineer the clones turrets also drops items thats op
When is the next update coming for Xbox
May/June
i finally beat ror2 on rainstorm
Gg wp
Bravo
To that I wish you good luck with monsoon
rn im on the second stage of monsoon and i have pretty good items
What character are you vibing with on monsoon?
Good to hear it and hope you get a solid run and get your mastery skin for whatever character it is
As a bit of a general advice: monsoon is easier than you think
However, consoles are bugged to work against and be harder than on pc
If you die it was most likely not your fault
Didnt know console was harder due to bugs
Check the pinned messages in #ror2-bug-reports-console
Ik my monsoon experience was pretty good until just getting my soul tossed randomly mid fight
merc
Fair enough, cant say ive used merc much personally
i have 4 tritip daggers rn so i do decent damage
First melee character ive properly played is loader because I vibe with swinging around and doing high damage hits
Anyway the main things are
Double overloading orbs
Insane blazing trail damage
Insane knockback
Wrong elite types on commencement
Messed up spawn rates
There's way more in #ror2-bug-reports-console
i just like fast characters
I get exactly what you mean because its so much of a vibe to momentum toss across the map
i got stuck on mithrixes roof a couple times and i had to dash toget out of it
cus the knockback was pressing me against the roof
If you havent tried loader I def recommend it then
Fax
Yikes
might try her sometime
lol
You can absolutely fling yourself across the map or into the air with high speeds even on stage one with loader
ooh
Lodr is the spiderwoman character of the game
Pretty much
Somewhat high skill ceiling for the mobility aspect but getting good at it is super fun
im tryna get better rn so hopefully i can complete this monsoon run
Mostly monsoon nowadays but I started on drizzle and stayed on it for like a couple of months
Its so much fun to mach 10 fly through the map
once i win a monsoon run im gonna try eclipse
As of now mostly drizzle to mess around but imma probably change to rainstorm so I can get more accustomed to monsoon
Only done one monsoon run which was a loader speedrun to obliterate so I need to get the elite monsoon boss trophy to get platinum
alot of the reason im playing the difficult game modes is because i want to unlock ethereal and i need to get better at the game for that
Ethereal is nothing like monsoon or any other difficulty
It's much, much, much worse
i almost unlocked it once
In ro1 I never played drizzle so idk why I started in ro2
but after i killed the boss i got damaged
If you get a trial with
where you can easily get
and
then it becomes substantially easier
Also easy enemies
It's mostly rng tbh
do u have to obliterate to get the alternate skins?
would obliterating or killing mithrix be easier
im playing merc so probably obliterate
I myself didnt want to risk it so I just used loader, and about stage 6 just sped to the teleporter and would quickly spend the cash racked up from getting it to 100% then tp out
I think obliterating without beads is way easier and safer than mithrix for skins
Also found going to the sky meadow tp, completing it, then using the artifact portal instead was my best bet
Seems like it
Remember, if you wanna do a trial then immediately turn on the artifact tp, loot the stage, do tp, get the items, don't wait for the tp to complete and go through the artifact portal
Stage 5 is the only stage where you don't have to wait 😎
Yeah
Not on console
Since I was on monsoon I just teleporter rushed, used whatever cash I got on every nearby chest, then tpd to either command for item choosing or just whatever artifact I needed and wanted to do
Im console only so I’ll probably just do what I did with tboi repentance and just watch vids about it at the most before getting the dlc when it comes out
Smart
Or just avoid it and wait since ive went into ro2 and 1 completely blind because I randomly bought it when it was like $8 for both where I was
a titan and an army of golems killed me
Either way oughta be a vibe to play
I feel that, 2 monsoon runs I had I got to about stage 7 and got folded by a group of golems just annihilating my health
its like being chases by 20 snipers in mech suits with a bigger mech that has a death ray and can make the ground punch u
If you stay super close to the titan it wont laser you at least
yeah but abunch of golems were surrounding the titan
But can be hard to do with a squad of golems i’d think
Yeahhhh
I love stage 1 bosses!
Straight up just “nope thats enough of that”
i got to the third stage!
im gonna wait in the drop pod for a while and see what happens
You should try doing thst as acrid too if you have him :)
ok

Is there any known patch update for console online multiplayer? The online mode seems abit laggy
Bruh when the lunar coin patch hitting
Yo it’s been a long while since I’ve been here. Is the console version still crap? Last time I checked in was after the half baked patch for the anniversary update
Yes
Cool to see some things never change. Except if that rebuild is good, in which case things will in fact change.
Actually whats the issue with console? I only experience lagging in multiplayer,the single player mode is fine
Very buggy. When you don’t know that they are there, they aren’t the most noticeable in the world, but they are effecting your experience for sure regardless. But still it’s a real shame knowing that pc is getting a way better experience.
Pinned messages in #ror2-bug-reports-console has a list of them @woeful nebula
Yeah it’s been like that for a quite a long time. That’s why the rebuild is happening.
Hopefully they rebuild the multiplayer mode as well
It's easier to ask what isnt wrong with the console version
True
(some of these were patched out but still)
Glacials don't explode twice 
Console isnt getting the dlc just yet right?
Hmmm doubt
Well june is the absolute latest
Maybe
Yes a paid expansion (I support it being paid as devs need to pay bills and each other thought I would say so guarantee they know) but is q1 2022 for pc q2 2022 for console at the moment
Hmm wonder what's gonna be in it
Look in dev thoughts it says a lot of things
The true ror2 experience 
Any reveal on the price of the dlc?
I'm assuming the patch didn't fix the insane spawnrates and difficulty scaling of monsoon considering earlier today I had a run on monsoon where just 2 minutes in on first stage 7 greater wisps spawned
Maybe on the 31st
if it’s not JOON then it’s gonna be september
Augustoon
?
Are void reaver champions by chance ridiculously powerful? I had a good 3k health, a ton of shields, and was instantaneously deleted to the point my health bar still said I had hp
It was like getting hit by a wandering vagrant but at 10 times the power
did u get hit by the implosion?
Maybe? There was a group that I charged into using loader’s thunder gauntlet and without warning was deleted
I died so quickly the healthbar didnt even go down and im just messing around on drizzle
they probably imploded u then
Didnt know I could get hit that hard
its an instakill
unless u have a dios u wont survive
yeah it just kills anything
Welp okily dokily then didnt expect to get wiped off the face of the planet like marker on a whiteboard
it might ignore health cus technically it isnt even killing u its putting u in space prison
Was so unexpected I just buffered lmao
Ohhhhh
Ok,i just unlock powermode for mult,its really strong
Not even maybe, confirmed by uncles
I'll pay an extra 10 bucks just for split screen if it comes with it
I pay extra 10 bucks if theres a new midsave option for single player mode
Save & quit option
Not in ror2
Saving would work if it MADE you obliterate on stage 8, but it doesn’t and could go on infinitely. That would take the point out of long runs since you can just go back to it whenever.
It’s about having the longest run as an accomplishment, not a task that can be reached by saving.
u can practically save on xbox it woukd just make it more convient
I would not prefer saving but eh
I like having the title of a stage 70 run, with saving literally anyone could do it
That could be just you, some people want quality of life, In case well, the game crashes
Not everyone has the time to continue a straight run to stage 70
But tbh since u can keep on looping the run,i dont think they will include the save & quit option.
Always wondered if tougher times can stop it
dont think so
Kinda makes sense but kinda sucks too
yeah
2023
Nope it doesn't
If I remember correctly only Dio's can "stop" it
As in your run will continue
I-frames, intangibilith with strides etc... still won't work
Does artifact of glass affect friendly drone in single player mode?
Yep. Its everything
I dont even know if its worth to unlock all the artifact,some seems to be useless,its just for the achievement ig
Most are kinda neat :)
My 3 fav are command,sac & swarm.. 
I-frames and strides do stop it
Because it removes your hitbox completely
At least with strides
The explosion only checks if there are any hitboxes and sets their health to 0
I love vengeance cause it kinda makes you have to keep in mind that your also making a perfect rival for yourself so not to go too overboard on stuff like crowbars and crap
Swarms and sacrifice is always fun. Maybe glass with it if im bored
Funny enough I always one tap my doppleganger
So what do I do if I'm playing with someone and completing the same tasks but only one of us is getting the character unlocks?
Is the game harder on switch than pc
My laptop needs to be fixed so in the meantime I got it on switch for 6 bucks but it seems the medium difficulty is very difficult for me, but that's what I used to play the game on PC. So many more enemies and they all do a ton of damage
It's not just the controls, I'm noticing much more enemies spawn and it seems there's less items. Idk
What character did u try to unlock together?
yeah i don't think there's a difference, maybe just bad luck or something
might just be console jank
but yeah, a game like ROR2 on console, where you can't change the Sens im pretty sure?, yeah it's gonna be a bit more clunkier than with KBM and what not
Console is a lot buggier aswell as just worse (for example unless it got fixed touching a fire trail on console is pretty much insta death)
It still is....
Mm yes gameplay
The prismatic trials where the enemies are all elites are... fun.
Sure do be
Can I ask a question, for you guys does mired urn target friendlies, like other players. And also do the drones constantly push into you
Because I once killed my friend with mired urn
i did too lmao
it's just more console jank, unless you're secretly a pc gamer in disguise then idk you might have the chaos artifact enabled
Console
Same console jank I believe as when your allie’s ai try to attack you every couple minutes even though they physically cant without artifact of chaos or something
If they try to attack you it's because of certain things like meteorite, bugged mired urn, helwire etc...
Shrine of chance will not spawn if u use artifact of sacrifice?
i've been thinking about how certain items or survivors from ror1 would work in ror2
because some items/survivors skills mainly work because of 2d
such as laser turbine
and some items would need to be nerfed heavily like wicked ring or 56 leaf
as well as chef
mainly his boosted dice
how would the knives spread
or enforcer
would his sheild act like how the game figures out bandit backstab
or would it just be a solid hitbox
its fun to think about
If u use command artifact,whenever u select ur item,u need to press again to equip,anyways to change it to equip immediately?
#skip
Does michael have urn properly blacklisted?
Uhhhhh no
You either hold the button down (to pick up items) or just press it again
Thx,no wonder
Defeating the 3 overload imp for the teleporter boss,does it count as 3 boss or 1?
Was trying to unlock the challenge of defeating 10 bosses in 1 run
I think they count as separate
They share the same HP bar,idk
You'll get it in a long run anyway
Was trying to get that challenge with my newly unlock artifcer,i give up,i try other characters later,lol
The max stage i made it with artifcer is stage 7,after that i am ded
Polly mult,i just unlock his powermode,haven try it out yet
Me either now that I think about it
There are like 5 characters i yet to complete the game with,i need to unlock all their profile stories
I wonder if obliterating still counts
Yes,it counts
I only defeat the final boss 2 times with different characters,the rest i just obliterate,its easier tbh
True
You ever just wish there was a system for chests and stuff to not face edges?
Had a crit printer and that hoe flew right into the nether realm
hopoo reading this be like: HAH, hilarious
They said that it's memorable so they're not gonna change it 😂
Everytime I see that I am like ahha that's memorable!
Every time I see it I internally die
Thankfully its never happened to a militech
Yet
Is there a ps5 version coming?
Love it when a game breaking bug makes getting to the final boss impossible
Just take it on pc, the console ports are dissapointing
You know someone's an item rat when they have 5 different artifacts on
... which one?
Mithrix probably
I think they meant which bug lol
Is multplayer still a problem?
Haven't tried it. None of my friends play it 
Its possible,i host a private room with 1 of my fren last few days but it depend on the host internet connection whether its laggy or no
i think so? one of my friends joined a random commando who had the game for no more than 10 minutes
Stage 14 onwards in console is unplayable,too many enemies and laggy.
which console?
hows console discussion doing
Does Survivors of the void come out at the same time for console or did we get shelved again
I hope it doesn’t
from what i remeber it got shelved again
I coomed
5 mins wtf
Yea what's with this slowmode!?
Also I'm really sick of this "PC gets it in a month console gets it in a year" stuff
yea its weird on how they do console updates... they basically make the pc update and once thats done they send it to someone else (forgot who) and they work on the console versions and yes this slow mode is a bit stupid
So what do you guys like of Railgunner the spiritual successor to Sniper
They seem really cool, I really damn hope console gets the dlc around the same time.
most likely not with how they work on the dlc with console
I know...
I'm very unhappy but at least its announced
We'll get in it what, two years?
i honestly didnt like when they said they were gonna try to release it with pc but like we knew that wasnt gonna happen
maybe
Yea what happened to them blatantly saying that
Was it just empty or did they actually try and then throw their hands up
they said thast what they were trying to do
The console team is like 3 people in a basement working on a single phone
idk i just know how they deal with it
i keep getting asked from my friends because of it lol
well we are getting the dlc ( or so they said) but we dont know when
A release date is at least something to look forward to, we're just dead in the water for a while.
Fair enough.
oh yea thats how it is for ror2
they release it for pc then everyone else is jsut sitting there watching the pc people like man that looks like fun
thats why i own the game on pc and ps4 so i can not have that happen to me
I'm not buying it again on my crappy pc, I bought the game I should get the updates. I wouldn't have gotten it at all on console had I known I'd be months or even years behind everyone else
At least ro2 isnt as bad as 7 days to die where it’s basically ancient in comparison to pc. So probably wont get it for awhile but its at least going to happen at some point
So it’s annoying but it will at least happen
yea...
If I recall correctly with 7 days to die its on a version from 2016 and the devs basically said “yeah we will update console when pc hits gold”. So ps4 is on alpha 15 or so and pc is on alpha 21 and in graphics and mechanics an almost completely different game
Looking forward to getting a chance to play the rail gunner as it seems to be like the sniper but far more fun due to not being 2d
wasnt that because whatever studio they had doing the console update ports like boomed, also 7dtd perma alpha tbh
Yeah took them awhile to get it back and then seems they are just gonna leave console
If Railgunner is Sniper V2 then we might get something like Enforcer V2 if we're lucky. Juggernaut sounds like a fitting name
Honestly I just want the chef in ro2 lmao
Hell, any support focused survivor would be interesting
I honestly vibed with the chef quite a bit in ro1
Currently we just have the trickshot queen
Though chef would probably be a bit different in ro2 just like how loader is decently different from 1
That happens when a third dimension is added
Meant mechanics wise in general but third dimension being added too
I just hope the DLC will drop soon for us Console gang
Hopefully it’ll be only 4-6 months or so
The fact that railgunner will naturally do 1% extra crit damage though
I hope they asked the sniper mod creator for help on her.
i hope they will be able to get them to come out together soon. Make me want to get it on PC but its not like i can carry over my progress
Let's gooo
A new chance for gearbox to screw up the console portttttt
Or, hopefully, they fix it the rest of the way :0
They will fix the console version, it is gonna to get rebuild.
I hope so
Hey does anyone on xbox want to play with me and a friend? We are both pretty new to the game btw
Hmm
I would, but I got school tomorrow, good luck to y'all tho :0
We had a couple good runs and found some random that helped us get a character we both needed but if you ever want to play with two idiots in the future let me know
If I was able i’d join you as ive never done any sort of multiplayer on ro2
Could buy it on pc when the dlc rolls out and treat it like a brand new save file
Should I buy the first game or has it not aged well
First game is still great and really fun. Definitely worth it if you are cool with platformers.
Personally I'm not for it. Like its cool but as a 2d you'd think we'd have more vertical movement options especially in a platformer
Is ps4 still broken
Oh you poor soul
does the 57 leaf clover affect rarity drop rates when the Artifact of Sacrifice is on? i don't mean drop chance; i mean the rate at which a particular rarity item drops, seemingly decided separately from whether an item drops or not.
the follow quotes from the wiki have given me the impression that yes, it does:
- Drop rates for item rarity are:
[values clipped by me for brevity]- Drop chance is not affected by the 57 Leaf Clover or Purity
https://riskofrain2.fandom.com/wiki/Artifacts#Sacrifice
Since items from chests are created based on the world seed [me again: the Artifact of Sacrifice isn't based on the world seed, i don't think], the Clover does not affect them.
https://riskofrain2.fandom.com/wiki/57_Leaf_Clover
however, the wiki does'nt provide a direct answer
Hi quick question does anyone know if the DLC will also come for consoles?
No one knows rn
Ok thx ^^
Yes but not in March
Clover should never affect item drops in any way
Also the seed changes if artifacts are enabled
Also also the wiki is not really 100% reliable
Ok thx :))
Np
Do desperado stacks persist between stages?
Nope
Also is planula still broken?
Just checked still hasn’t been fixed
Damn
they gonna fix the focused assault ability for merc on xbox?
Maybe. Hopefully
Can someone put up the link to the website vfrom the stream
It's pinned in #theorycrafting :)
I think the dlc will come out either may, June, or July
yea they said q2 of this year ^
I don't wanna to go back to the JOON days
Sadly it seems like the JOON ages will be returning
JOON
Whats JOON?
JOON
You're too young to know, walk away before you get corrupted.
@woeful nebula oh yeah
You can have more than one character in your roles
So, on a scale from 1-10, how hyped is everyone that the Console version will now be, you know, playable?
If they fix the console version..... 10/10
I really, truly, desperately hope that this actually works...
I've been wishing on a star and coming up short several times these last six months when it comes to video game updates
If I don't get this one wish right, I may just implode
That would definity be really cool.
They said it will, just not at the same time as steam
I hope they fix the lag when theres alot of enemies on the map for example stage 13 onwards,its unplayable in single player mode,for switch console
oh yeah ive had that issue before
a friend and i wanted to reach stage 20 and it crashed on both of us once we reached 13
i believe. the switch is not strong enough. to run this game. LOL
JOOOON
planned for Q2
Allright :D
been there since update 1 for console, no hope
fully expecting a data whipe
lol
i COULD NOT 100% this game again for the 4th time
Chef gang
Imagine 100%ing the game
Yeah, imagine 3:
I think ive only got it to 80%
Still have to work on characters, get artifacts, and violently toss crabs into the abyss
You can't even reach 100%. It's bugged at around 96.2%, and you can gain no more progression at all
W h a t
It REFUSES to track it
Specifically, "survivors played" won't track Heretic unless she is picked from the menu, which you obviously can't do
Welp guess I’ll go for psn 100% then instead
Yeah definitely going to
The console port is just held together with glitter glue and a prayer, really
I first played it on the og just installed disc version for a hot minute until I finally updated
Its better than that at least where the boss would fall through the map and become unkillable plus theres more characters, items, and things to fuck around with. But doesnt change how occasionally funky it can be
Still a vibe of a game though
Yeah imagine if someone complete 100% of console risk of rain 2.
That wouldn't be me
The only thing I gotta do is that trophy to get one of those guys to jump off the Edge and kill himself
Use the Primordial Cube
Still counts if you do
Or use Rex's BOP
Did you also complete eclipse 8 on all survivors?
Uh no cuz it doesn't count towards achievements 😎
Went as far as 5 with huntress
Did not bother to do any more
Welp.... I have all achievements and i complete eclipse 8 on all survivors. Soo i have 100%+ of the game....
it's in "alternate game modes" right where prismatic trials are
Ah
Note
Never play with 4 people cause there's a 90 percent chance that there's that one player that grabs all the items while contributing to nothing
I had a friend like that
In a godly monsoon run I had come across a red item on stage 5 which you may all know is important but my friend who is a mercenary player said “let me get shattering justice. He proceeds to die on stage 2 of mithrix…. Safe to say that run didn’t last much longer after that as I was playing bandit but forgot to pack wax quails
oof.
hm. noted. i imagine the behavior my friend noticed was probably a coincidence, then
thank you for the response, and sorry for being late to notice it, i somehow missed the ping >.>
More worse,they pick up items thats useless for their character. Lol
Even worse
They print items and never pick them up
Including boss items
Fun fact: Its always huntress players
Thats the worse
I haven complete a single monsoon run on switch console yet,the amount of enemies makes the game laggy
I cope with it
Honestly a lot of the games I play rarely lag cause of frames so this is kinda new
kinda
Some of the multiplayer games in switch lag abit too
P sure it's also because one of the logbooks for stages literally can't be obtained
Hmm,i dont understand y some random online players need to quit after they are ded,theres still remaining survivors that can contiune to finish the teleporter tho
Cant wait till suriviors of the void
Its always the people who start the tp first two
"You didn't help me kill the boss after we just spawned in with zero items? Im out"
I always encounter the host that quit,once host quit,everyone will disconnect,thats the most irritating part,lol
This is why everyone suggests host acquisition here
so what do we do till we get the dlc
yah i wait till we all dead and then i quit
The simulacrum is basically the void in normal levels
The cell moves
Its a tri shop every time
And we found 2 new enemies, a new aspect and a character.
I think there's supposed to be two but one's not confirmed cause we still have 4 slots left
i meant what should we do while we wait sadly while watching pc players play the dlc
Oooh i didn't see that
I dunno, keep playin 
Wait don't we get the dlc only a bit after cause we get the patch in march?
We're meant to get dlc in 2Q so it could be a month after pc or 3+
Any news of what the new aspect does?
We only know about one, the new aspect we know about it heals nearby allies the second one we don't know anything
Nice,hopefully theres a aspect that slow down the timer.lol
Imagine the aspect speeding up the timer if an enemy uses it 

<@&892883642030895144> so a really important question, do you have any idea if the price will be discounted on console as well when it comes out?
You know the managers have zero influence over the actual game right 
And as we speak the pc version is probably still being worked on so they're not worried about is right now.
Sadly 
The game is not the point, the marketing is obviously placed by hopoo so I was just asking
Yeah, and the managers definitely have no part in that hense the name "community manager"
They polly discount it on the console version since PC version has discounted price
This is more so a question for consoles, but is it likely that since consoles are being built so that they're exactly like the PC version, that they can have access to Mouse and Keyboard support?
Isnt the console rebuild is more like fixing the bugs and the content and patch would be the same as PC
I think it's being built similar to the PC build so that they can find bugs and stuff better but I could be wrong bout the first part
all I know is that I've been in so many situations where I've wished that consoles had mnk support because that would be pretty baller if console people could have it
and I don't really see a reason why they can't
Idk but i think the new railgunner would aim better with mnk
Exactly. I'm loving how the railgunner looks and how she plays but honestly she's gonna be a pain in the ass to use on consoles just because of how fast paced it is, you're gonna kind of need to zoom in and out and get quick shots, especially on Monsoon runs
it just seems like it's an honest pain to use her efficiently
That is the plan however as each store works differently i cant promise it will be exactly the same price to the penny (it might for example have to be $14.99 down to $9.99 - just an example i have no idea of the specifics) but rest assured you'll get a very similar discount
Pog
That's so cool :D
@noble eagle shows what you know

Ok, the alt skin for captain looks like a doctor/scientist. Lol
Idk but i still prefer the original blue skin
Alternative skin for captain reminds me of Cpt. Falcon's white chroma
Random questions like that. To play with peeps on the switch do you need the online thingy? Is there voice chat in the game?
Because debating buying the game on Xbox one instead of the Nintendo online thingny
U need to have online membership for switch and theres no voice chat option
Just use discord
Nintendo online is one of the worst services actually purchasable, it’s so unbelievably awful
I feel like Nintendo stopped caring after like, 2019
No choice if u are using switch,u need the online membership to play online for most of the multiplayer games
The thing is that’s pretty much the only game I’d play and most of the time I have headphones when using the tv so can’t really use discord
It’d get so much feedback if I used the tv volume 😅 guess imma have to buy it on Xbox too
Any news about the dlc coming to console yet..?
It's been confirmed that it's coming to console... Q2 is what I think was the ETA
most likely late june is my guess early july but in reality it could be from june to early octoberish
;^;
hey, do y’all also have a problem where multiplayer just constantly disconnects you?
Does anyone have the knowledge as to why my collectibles (I assume are monster logs) say 32/32 when I have a few monster logs left to get?
Yeah
anyone down to play no mic tho
I have a PC but switch is portable
Laptop
I don't know if this is a problem for just me but I finally convinced a friend to get this game and we can't even get a full run without disconnecting
Does the switch support MnK?
Mouse and keyboard if you were talking to me haha
Its possible to use mnk for switch
It might not work as good as a mnk in PC
Stadia ror2 above all

After all, it did bring Sundered Grove to all platforms because of how well received it was :)
😳
Stablize the switch
hopefully that'll be done with the rebuild
Can we get a switch that isn’t just bigger screen
Nintendo: But, better kickstand as well.
Bet you a billion dollar drift will never be fixed ever and Nintendo literally just wants people to waste more money on procontrollers
Something I’ll have to try for myself to have an opinion
Who do y'all think is the other survivor? Since it seems like we'll be getting another remade character, my guess is on Chef but his alt skill set also makes him a janitor so he's remade as Butler
His skill set was cooking/fire related so I thought of cleaning/water as his alts
Chef 3
switch users, what do you think about nintendo direct?
the new survivor other than railgunner will be completely original becuase they said they would bring back an old survivor "sniper" and one would be completely original plus in the gameplay we saw one drop pot be void like and its also called survivors of the void so it will most likely be a void themed survivor
You're right.
Next update then 
I play on pc and occasionally with a friend who plays on switch and apparently it’s just fine
Ima be really sad when they reveal the new survivor knowing im going have to wait at the least 2 months to play them
Okey.....
Says the gd1er
Is the Xbox version better than the switch version
I haven’t saved up enough for a pc yet and the switch isn’t exactly the best to keep my runs going past stage 20
They're basically the same
Minor differenced in bugs and performance
Keep saving up for a pc
I’m just content with my switch even if pc is superior because i get to play ror2 on the go
actually coming from someone who has an xbox and a switch yes xbox is much better and i have never crashed even past stage 20. ( I have a xbox one s)
Oh epic
frames only drop when your later on but only when like 10 magma worms spawn on like later stages
Ok
Replaced his drones?
Balls
Uh are the xbox servers down or something?
I cant connect with my little brother. Every time we get into the character selection it just disconnects the person joining
Multiplayer often doesn't work from what I heard
Should be fixed within the next few months
I've had no issue with it until todau
tbh... Between the incorrect elite spawning, broken knockback, and broken mithrix, I think I'll just go obelisk until the console version is fully rebuilt and fixed.
yea gotta love making it to mithrix stage 6 just to get chunked by malachite lunar wisp shredding you in seconds
My game doesn't crash it only lags when I give rex so much healing he went from trash to a god
does sotv launch on console at the same time as pc or do we have to wait
gonna have to wait
A lot
Yessir
remember how mobile got 1.4 faster than console?
Ror2 mobile would actually be lit
But it would be super wonky
dude im currently on stage 11 trying to get commando uncorruptable. I'm on monsoon and my switch is dying i hope it doesnt crash.
Hopes and dreams
just gonna stack tougher times and hope for the best
already have 30 atgsand 57 leaf clover
8 tougher times should get you to around 50-60% block chance
