CainFortea posted:AMR doesn't do jack against chargers. That said, while they do the boring game thing of removing your third person crosshair to "Balance" a sniper rifle in a game full of airstrikes and explosives? Bringing it on some easy missions and panic firing, it SEEMS to at least be able to hit things directly in front of you that way instead of magically sending the bullet away at a 75 degree angle any time the trigger is pulled without a scope view,

I wouldn't use it solo, but in a full team there's room for it. It's ok if you're willing to ADS it tbh if I'm taking a non-backpack gun I'll always opt for the railgun or grenade launcher since they are far more versatile and get the job done better in most cases. I ran the anti materiel for a bit but even when shooting accurately into weak points I wish I had something else. E: also agree I'd probably give it another go if it had a reticle other than ADS. Would be a little more versatile.

yeah after running helldive all week the slower and more precise weaponry just really does not do well ain't no one got time to be an antitank or recoilless loader when you're running for your life at all times speed and stealth combined with brief moments of extreme firepower get you in and out consequently the railgun and grenade launcher are just Better than the other heavy options, as they let you deal with every heavy in the game or hordes of stuff + bug holes/fabs while leaving your backpack open for shield/guard dog/resupply and giving you mobility on the reload I don't actually love this because the other heavy weapons are a ton of fun, but the pressure on helldive is just intense similar story with strategems, turret and fixed emplacement stuff is just meh outside defense missions because you don't want to be staying in one place any longer than you need to or you'll have three tanks/bile titans and a pile of hulks/chargers up in your poo poo none of this is enough to stop me from taking anti material or flamethrower or mines or whatever on our group runs, but they underperformed for us once we left the medium difficulties

Section Z posted:I keep seeing mixed claims of "You can totally just shoot scout walkers with it wherever though!" vs "It isn't a bad weapon you just have skill issues for not shooing THE WEAK POINT!" so I just keep bringing explosives rather than learn the hard way under fire. idiotsavant fucked around with this message at 02:56 on Feb 19, 2024 |

Spanish Manlove posted:Is the evacuate scientists mission on the robot side bugged? The waves of enemies just never ever cease Some people are saying it is. The mission on the planet map is listed as a 40 minute mission but in the mission it has a time limit of only 15 minutes. Some people are saying it's bugged, spawning the amount of enemies meant for a 40 minute mission inside a 15 minute mission so the spawns are hosed and basically on top of each other over and over

flashman posted:It was a rail gun I saw someone use.. What a waste of 5000 coins You can still kill tons of difficult to kill things quickly with well placed shots and you can carry lots of ammo. It's completely fine. Chargers are a pain in the rear end no matter what unless you use a stratagem or have support weapons specifically designed to deal with heavily armored enemies. You can literally kill those big hulking mechs that have the weak points on their back in like 3 direct hits to their tiny little heads, and aiming in the game isn't hard if you're playing KB+M.

Has anyone else been unable to play with randoms? It seems like the server doesn't even know I'm on. I can't join a Quickplay, and when I look at each world map, there is no one else on that I can join. I throw down an SOS for every mission that I enter solo, but I have never have anyone join me. I am on Public. I have tried turning Crossplay on and off, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

FWIW Quickplay may be broken, but throwing an SOS beacon in the map seems to work just fine. I got three rowdy divers to pal around with me on Hard.

If anyone wants to add me, my friend code on Steam is 16264386. I haven't actually been able to get in for the last couple hours but it'd be cool to have more people on my friends list to join matches with. Been running solo or duoing with the same three or four people I keep seeing on.

^^^^Edit: The Goon discord that gets linked every couple pages and in the OP has a pinned post that’s a google sheet of friend codes. Add yours — do not generate another after adding yours to the sheet — and then go through and friend request everyone. I try to friend new people every few days but I’ve been out of town all weekend. Koth posted:drat. I've done about 6 missions solo now and I throw down an SOS every time, but no one joins. The trick last week was to throw down an SOS at the start of your mission, leave back to your ship once it deployed, and then choose a new mission (I think it had to be on the same planet) from the war map. Once you’d jumped into your pod and were on the drop zone or stratagem select screens a full party of divers would usually show up. Not sure if that still works with how much more broken things are.

Since I have only been in solo play today but still Doing My Part in defensive missions I can confirm that the "kill 120 robots" blitz mission is easy up through very hard. Meanwhile the "rescue VIPs" mission is goddamned impossible even on lower difficulties because the waves of enemies are absolutely endless and there's no good funneling system since you have to be running around opening shelters.

loading screen retry would not be as frustrating if it didnt somehow require 64% GPU and 28% CPU utilization. My fans are screaming! Cool game, but maybe I'll give it a few weeks to get stable. Glad its a success, nice encouragement for Sorny on their 'embrace other platforms' stratagem.

Mortars and turrets are you friends here. We did one tonight on challenging where we had 6 mortar strategems between all 4 of us. One of us only fired their gun 1 time. They got like 30 kills.
