real, ace/hydrid was my go to before 0.9.5 but I've been rockin the military exosuit because of its new stats

#

found 4 hybrids and 2 aces so far

#

not using em

quick tangle
#

But I ran the exosuit out of pity because I used to religiously hate on them

zealous fossil
#

btw bandit skat has 54kg carry weight + 105 movement speed

errant dragon
#

oh yea 100%, but before the rework they were ehhhh

quick tangle
#

what was done with Exo carrying ability this update?
I've checked those in debug, and some of them have abysmal free weight.

zealous fossil
#

whats more suprising is the other changes to the armors too

#

the sin overcoat now has 6 slots and i cant wait to get my hands on it

errant dragon
#

idr, i don't use debug often

zealous fossil
#

yeah its better if you have the armor in your inventory

#

i think it gives accurate stat

zealous fossil
#

afaik he can guide you up north

#

but just wear a disguise

#

idrk a good way to move up north as duty

plain bear
#

Right I forget disguises are a thing tbh

#

Id do freedom but they are kinda neutral to all the early game goons to shoot

but also access to patch gambling is fun

having mercs as enemies is great

Soul sold to Teto...

#

I think I may just do freedom but I shoot bandits anyway cause I like shooting them tbh

zealous fossil
#

apparently freedom vs mercs or bandits is being considered

#

that would change gameplay a lot

#

if freedom vs mercs

Erm, guys, i started Arena and i got no one to fight with, just running around lol. Did anyone have the same issue?

errant dragon

gahdayum upgrading exoskeletons are a pain

I am so fucking fed up with these chimeras at outskirts

A funny solution to that is a max Rof aks-74u tactician with HP

That doesn't help when the 0,1% jam decides to fuck you over as well

no expert tools but i did find a KSG-23 KekSkew

The backup solution to that is a 23mm shotgun

desert roost
#

I checked every street I could see down before going back to loot, a homing Chimera with my name attached rounds a corner

#

I do have KS-23M but that doesn't help when the Chimera is already on my ass, I shoot with what I got (and the Scar-H does kill them quickly)

@celest sparrow I'll just move this here to avoid offtopiccing

For the first time in GAMMA's life span, I genuinely think we're at the end. There's really nothing more we can do to this amalgamate of a creation. You can make a story rework (that everyone will play like once, because GAMMA isn't about the story), the repeatable X-labs (most of which are in the south), but as long as we are still bound by that terribly outdated map layout we've had since CoC, I simply cannot imagine as to how anyone would make the north as fun to play as the south.

Small preview of SSS24. Now you can use DLSS 4 and FSR 3.1 to upscale your game and save some GPU performance with an acceptable image quality. DLAA and Native AA are also available for a nice option to soft borders and completely remove any shimmering from your game.

# livid niche DLUS?

sorry had to go afk

Super sampling is a wrong term for how dlss (deep leaning super-sampling) works.
DL'SS' renders the picture at lower resolution than monitor, then scales it up with AI.
That process is called up-sampling, going from low to high.

Super-sampling means opposite, renders at higher resolution, then display in lower, like running a game in 4k on a 1920p monitor

#

so yea DLSS is false advertisement tomfoolery

it's DLUS

Duty's not inherently against researching the zone, after all they need to learn how to destroy it in best case, contain it in worst case scenarios.

Duty's core ideology is to prevent the perceived (and very real) threat to humanity in case of Zone's **further **expansion. Ideally by destroying it.
Keep in mind in lore Zone expanded before, afaik it was even mentioned in SoC, where checkpoint at the bridge is where previous cordon was. And nobody knows how much further it will expand.

Like at least Meadow has like

a cool POI in it

Meadow has a lot of nice hideout locations for how small it is

yeah meadow is pretty neat

Meadow always has some enemy squads there

And it's a cozy lil location

Besides, it's one of the easiest maps to do lost signal

meadow is also unique in terms of map

the rot has spread

And the only passage i can see to there is already over the transition zone to the dark valley

near estuary

The problem with darkscape is that it's an actual valley

Proposition: give Darkscape to the Monolith

twin timber

Different from dark valley that it is NOT a valley

near estuary
#

duh

twin timber
#

There's only 2 exits

#

Idk maybe put a literal helicopter near the gas station

near estuary

just like dead city has alive stuff in it

smh

And put a transition zone there to the meadow

idea:
make darkscape actually dark

#

GAMMA faking survival again

twin timber

Signal there is fucked

warm narwhal
#

Proposistion lets delete Swamp

In the mod fatal error you don't get signal there so your map and shit doesn't work

Oh wait that’d be neat actually
Darkscape as a perma-night area because of anomalies

i HATE swamp

Unless you get a signal upgrade to your pda

what a dogwater place

oh hey talk about luck before going to radar I hadn't seen monolith but I got the full prayer set

actually do renegade even like
have a base

I'm gonna play a Loner for a bit

make the gas station a renegade base (give it a perimeter of campfires, make it an 'island' in the darkness)
make it permanently 'night' in darkscape

theres nothing

radiation land

It’s got the Last Dawn quest, like five different factions patrolling, it’s good hunting land

Stay out of the water

delete the forest half of the map, make the remainder forested properly (maybe with dead trees? bc dark), make it actually dark, renegade base at the gas station

I can't decide aug 9mm or mp5sd for isg

warm narwhal

Idk how hard it'd be to add a new enemy

remote tide
#

oh shit thats a good point
have the mutants that hate fire be reskinned lurkers
so then you have the lurkers to apply pressure
and then the spiders attack if you slip up and break their web

#

but then thats probably too much for
where darkscape is

#

that would just make darkscape super dangerous for
no real reason
and just disincentivise going there for a whole different reason

hollow prawn
#

Honestly making it perma dark and a good place in the south to farm low-end NATO weapons isn’t bad at all

remote tide
#

it'd be cool as fuck, def
but its too much for such a southern zone

warm narwhal
#

Nah it'd be cool

#

like a hellish place close to south

hollow prawn
#

Red Forest 0.5

errant dragon
#

doesn't change the fact that Darkscape is unecessarily large and takes forver to move thru in it's current state

making it more dangerous is just less incentive

just delete that stupid bit at the top where it goes westward again
