Guys, I have no idea how to change the click interaction on the site. It took me almost a month to script kiddie together the combination of cut-and-paste edits you see there...beyond my own illiteracy, the base site is a bizzare combination of css, html and javascript. The site isn't the mod. With that said, I'll try to get it all https'd. I have to figure out what that entails, and I'm busy trying to resolve all the other small fires that come with launching a big mod, including Content Creator Coverage. TheObserver posted:I’m currently running the Restoration Mod using IPHLPAPI.dll, but the Crackdown installer apparently added WSOCK32.dll and now there’s a conflict message and the game crashes on startup, even when I remove IPHLPAPI.dll. Advice? You're going to need to both delete IPHLPAPI.dll and the mods/base folder, which will reinstall and repopulate itself when you start up the game. We do that because the WSOCK32 is an order of magnitude more stable than the old dll. edit: ok, I think it's got a license and https redirect? it may take a bit to kick in.

Any other Discords with some active players by chance? Or is the stove the only means of heat lately?

Ever since the massive player drop off that came with One Down it's been like this. Unpopular opinion: free content updates means less content, and whatever content we get is usually pretty lovely. See: the recent enemy visual update.

How many heists are in the storyline mode? I googled around but mostly found people asking about the canonical order or results that are now outdated. I'm past the endpoint of that screenshot, onto where I can choose between Alesso or Counterfeit, and am just curious how much longer I can keep getting coins out of this.

If you want coins, crime spree is where it’s at. Before doing those I wondered how I could farm a bunch of coins. And then I found my answer.

A team grinding CC's via sprees with builds set up to be good as a group on sprees can rake it in p fast. Honestly that goes for levelling too; Saving a big spree -> infamying -> cashing in the spree while level 0 in a menu is nice. Especially since even once you're into no-pagers land some heists (looking at you, FBI Server) are still trivial to stealth.

And something I should look up by actually don’t care enough to research: when “accidentally” killing civilians, does that come out of the offshore account or does it not do anything in sprees?

This is my first time playing safe house nightmare. Even DW is freaking brutal solo. Endless bullies and cIoakers in that little space. I haven't even gotten through the safe drill once yet. The little cursed killroom mission is kinda fun.

Sorry, I'm swamped with real life stuff, and the game's content has generally been exhausted for most goons. We have flareups of activity, but not as much as we used to.

By most testing accounts so far, the changes do....absolutely nothing to fix the underlying problems with flamethrowers, both in their own terms and as a part of the overarching weapon balance. But my phat pipe tells me this may get at least partially fixed. It's all about grabbing devs to patch something the instant it's released. We'll see how it goes.

"Enemy health and damage is too high on One Down" says the majority of Steam Forums and Reddit the moment the One Down update is dropped. Nothing gets remotely adjusted until 18 months later.

While doing heists solo I've found the Vulcan to be really loving good at just burning down anything; it feels more stable at hitting bulldozers in the faceplate than any LMG, and with Shock And Awe aced I just have to aim down and left on any given shield and i'll kneecap the guy in half a second. I never find it on any list of good weapons, and it seems like the complaint is mostly about its ammo pickup rate. Am I getting an inaccurate impression of its goodness due to playing with 3 bots who don't use ammo? Does it get wasteful when you're playing with other live people?

As you climb up in difficulty the Microgun becomes more useful than the Minigun. The Microgun trades firerate for damage, and with a better stability profile it's more ammo efficient.

Since the LMG buff the minigun's actually fine to use as a primary even without acing fully loaded. I find it works particularly well for a melee sociopath build where all I really need out of a gun is something to spray constantly while closing to meatfork range.

I wrote a long post, quoting like 3 people, and then accidentally hit the back button and now it's gone and I am tired so I give up. Anyway, ty to people who answered or responded to my questions Is there some obviously fastest way to earn offshore cash? I have a crime spree I can finish after I go infamous again, but before that I need like $40m in offshore cash and i'm not used to prioritizing money over exp.

ECM rush Shadow Raid is still pretty good too, given the speed, but that requires people to actually coordinate. Beyond that, there's really no way other than 'heist poo poo'. (Good news: you stop needing that after Infamy 5.)

The reality is that, in this moment, money payouts are comparatively balanced at the upper end- there isn't a single-all-providing meta. Aftershock has become less appealing due to a wait for the chopper at the end, but it's still very good. Cook-off is now probably one of the best approaches for money with a decent crew- meth remains really valuable per-bag, and being able to leave when you want is a big advantage.

If you're gonna use Cookoff to grind money I'd suggest doing it on Mayhem. With the most recent difficulty changes Mayhem is actually decent now and the loot values lean more towards the Deathwish end.

Here's something else I looked for and for which I found no definitive answers: is there some smartest way to progress through the Infamy grid? I doubt I'll ever get higher than like VI or VII because I don't have the patience for this unless I'm drunkenly failing stealth with my friends, so since I won't be around long enough for all the exp bonuses to accrue, should I just grab a couple +XP things and then focus on the remaining tier-requirement decreases?

Aftershock netted me what felt like a much bigger payday in a similar or shorter time, but I mean, you guys are the experts so maybe it was something about my situation that influenced how profitable it looks from here. I'm mostly on lower difficulties so I guess that makes Cook Off less appealing over time spent? Since every additive is time-gated and I'm making a lot less per bag on Very Hard or whatever? (when I quit, the best thing to do was arguably Hoxout, and when I was searching for my last offshore dollars I got a shitload of it from that and it was easy and straightforward. The only problem was that I had to spend it listening to Hoxton say things instead of shooting him in the face for being insufferable)

Grab the tier-requirement decreases first, 100%. They make a big difference and are the only things on the infamy grid that are actually worth it. Once you get those the rest is just ways to speed up the grind to making the infamy number bigger.

The infamy masks are neat but I don't use the majority of them outside of the original skill tree related ones. Venger, Heister Sentry and Kamul are the best out of the 2.0 masks IMO.

There's also the risk that about half the Cook Offs I've run have fallen victim to someone going "I'm sure we can last for one more trip" and then everybody dies and you lose it all. Non-infinite heists don't have that problem.
