part of the problem is people keep writing it off as just being derivative of something else so you get people checking it out because they like the thing it's compared to but in reality remnant is a whole lot of little touches from different games to the point where it's hard to classify it

Free Triangle posted:If I'm looking the magnum which isn't in my seed, could I find it by resetting? Yes, one of the main points of resetting is to have the possibility of getting different weapons/items/bosses. It also means that you might not get the AR again when you reset. This is also how you change the difficulty setting.

The join game function needs to at least allow you to select which world you want to join, that'd make that aspect a lot less unbearable.

Classes don't really matter too much for the most part unless you really care about the armor set looks and don't want to hunt them down later. I'd say ex-cultist probably has the most useful starting trait that generates more mod power. Not the end of the world if you're lacking it, been playing scrapper thats gotten through the game. Hunting for a specific piece is chorish since they're mostly found in earth,. Problem is earth is the first zonem, so you'll blow by that and then your gearscore gets jacked up then never seeing earth for a long while.

This looks sick as hell. I'm guessing there aren't like invasions or anything, though, which was the best part of Dark Souls. It still looks ridiculously fun though.

Tollymain posted:my understanding is that this game is kinda like resident evil gameplay meets bloodborne's chalice dungeons IMO it feels like... Monster Hunter with guns. Sure there's the Souls aesthetic and the fires, but in practice it's much more like MoHun (lack of death penalty, random hunts, monster parts, killing things to make into weapons, the whole element + blight system, yada yada). That and some sprinkling of Diablo 3. Especially with the upcoming Adventure mode feature. Mango Polo fucked around with this message at 07:24 on Aug 26, 2019 |

I've tried but unless you use AutoHotKey or something, you can't do it via the in-game binding. They unfortunately don't allow multiple key binds for the same action. I had the same problem as you and I kept using items bound to 1 or 2. So I bound those to the function keys instead. Then it turned out I think there's a bug with binding F4 as an item hotkey. So I just said gently caress it and stuck to the default keybinds. Except Alt for crouch of course.

alright well as expected of a game like this the first boss (i dont know if it's the same for everyone but it's the room with the big brute guy and a bunch of screaming kamikaze nerds) is kicking my rear end and i know it's because i haven't figured out the right way to deal with things. he's not too difficult on his own, stay at range and he basically only charges, but the little guys suck and i have no idea when they're actually spawning, it seems like it's random and everywhere so ican't predict it this is annoying but i will embrace the hate

And pay attention to audio cues on the screaming explodey guys. If they start screaming, stop shooting and figure out where they're coming from. Don't bother shooting them, just bait them into detonating. Roll away when they start blinking red, shoot gorefist some more or use the time between waves to create some distance from him, repeat. Once the flow clicks you'll kill him in a couple tries.

There's also a tiny room to your left just as the fight starts. You can bait him in there and then roll out the window so he has to walk back around, giving yourself more time to shoot him/adds.

I should probably go leave and upgrade stuff, but i'm worried if I do that I'll have to run through the dungeon again to get back. Does it just save as a checkpoint or is it one of those "this isn't really a checkpoint" things so I can't warp back to it

dungeon checkpoints can be warped back to from ward 13 but you have to go directly back after doing your business or the last checkpoint slot will be written over

Just rerun the dungeons anyway. You'll need a good amount of crafting mats and scrap for upgrades, and upgrades will make each consecutive run a bit easier. Definitely don't go into the bosses with +2 guns or whatever.

w the way scaling works, you basically want to keep all the gear you're using at roughly the same upgrade level, looks like?

Tollymain posted:w the way scaling works, you basically want to keep all the gear you're using at roughly the same upgrade level, looks like? Yes, it scales to your highest. Try to keep all armor and weapons you're using about even - which you will want to do anyway because the iron type you find will scale up as well. If you underlevel something by a lot, you will have a harder time finding the lower tier iron to upgrade it and be forced to buy it from vendors.

Here's how scaling works from the devs:https://www.reddit.com/r/remnantgame/comments/crs0i3/level_scaling_information/ posted:The game uses a weighted average to determine your potential power. It searches each slot (both equipped and inventory) and finds the highest level item (it doesn't consider any item below the highest) and uses it for that weighted average. So, if you have a +5 gun (so level 6 behind the scenes), a +3 secondary gun, a +2 sword, and +1 armor (all 3 slots) your weighted afterage is about level 5. Now, each NEW area you go into will be 5+1 (your level +1, so 6). Your level 6 gun will be doing work, and your armor will be below-par for enemies in that level 6 zone.

Defending the root mother solo is a complete and total pain in the rear end. Though just deleting the regular mobs with two hits helped instead of just trying to shoot everything. Faster and saves ammo for the special mobs. Also getting the spitfire from helping someone else before really helped after a while. I am bad at games but that took me like 10 attempts.

And easy way to tell how you are doing with the scaling is after hitting the start button take a look at the "Advance Info" Window. You'll see a little section called "Rating vs World" at the bottom left. It will tell you if you are on par, higher, or too low for that zone for both offensive and defense.

^burtle posted:Game is fun as hell but good gravy it seems like every boss I've run into is just a meaty guy with horde around em. It's part of the design. You need to the horde around them so you can get ammo so you don't have to rely on Ammo crates. It's all about when to kill and when to not kill the mobs as some bosses can only have 2 or 3 up at a time. Some like the butcher, will just summon a horde that stacks but that's because the main boss himself isn't that hard.

I mean, yeah, it's part of the design, but so is ammo lying around in other games. This one has some obvious downsides, and using it all the time really reveals those downsides. It'd be cool if they made a boss whose mechanic was "guns don't work" and you have to read boss moves and use openings for melee, it'd change it up nicely, and before someone says "but guns not working is poo poo" suck it up, there are already bosses immune to melee and that's total bullshit too.
