Any tips for someone running into the bug where they are stuck at the loading screen on PS5? Buddy has been having issues over the past 2 days and hasn't been able to play past the tutorial. Tried rebooting the PS5, doesn't look like there is a "verify files" type of thing.

I thought I saw this asked up-thread, but I don't remember what the answer was: Is there any way to tell what kind of enemy composition you're facing before you dive? I tend to prefer the grenade launcher when going up against Bile Spewers, but the mission either has them or doesn't, and I'd prefer to take something else in any other circumstance. Are they present on specific planets?

You have to boot into safe mode and rebuild the database. It may also reset some other weird system level notifications that are mildly annoying. Edit: that may be the clear system cache option

Just had a really good example of the angle of your shot mattering for penetration and figured I'd share it here: https://i.imgur.com/P1qIE5Q.mp4 The shot was off to the right and skipped right off the leg of the Charger

Insert name here posted:Just had a really good example of the angle of your shot mattering for penetration and figured I'd share it here: Given that the EAT should have very high penetration values (or at least, I imagine it so, it's a one shot weapon so at least it should be good as its role!), I'd say the game is calculating first if a shot should do damage or be bounced/glanced depending on the angle, and then after that angle calculation binary check, it actually applies damage depending on the armor/penetration/damage values.

priznat posted:I have picked up a flamethrower a couple times and it seems pretty bad, anything close enough to hit with it is probably running at you and will set you on fire too The name of the game is area-denial. You walk backwards or sideways while creating a sea of fire for your enemies to drown themselves in. It can wipe out waves of charging bugs more efficiently than any other weapon I've yet tried - and yes, I do have a Breaker.

I had a network issue that dropped the pubbie game I started, so I joined quickplay and ended up with a bunch of underleveled people doing a bot blitz mission. No problems there, but at the end screen I get this. Thanks quickplay. I already had all the supers and rare samples I needed to max everything out but that's still ~200 common samples, as well as maxing out all the limits for any future upgrades that might be added.

Clear open field, just chilling prone - trigger an aggro in an outpost somewhere and instead of a bot drop/Bug breach, half a patrol just materializes literally in front of you.

Owl Inspector posted:seen a bug 3 times today where I'd randomly get a fake pseudo chest wound out of nowhere, just while running around and not from getting hit or anything. it didn't cause bleeding or show up as a wound on the UI, but it did change my health bar to red and prevented me from regaining stamina + made me say the voice lines as if I had a chest wound. Using a stim would cure it but you can't stim at full health so I had to have someone punch me to regain the ability to sprint. I've seen that one as well, although I didn't understand what was happening as well as you. Just that my health bar was red and it was advising me to use a stim but I couldn't because I was at full health.

It's kind of the whole game, moment to moment it's really fun but having that extra layer of progression to grind makes it feel more rewarding.

Booty Pageant posted:had a whole patrol of bugs spawn out of thin air right in front of me, had to empty every weapon and grenade, drat jungle is speaking insect I had the exact opposite happen to me earlier. Was running around with another two pubs who we like level 28 doing helldives and they couldn't stop dying to every bug breach, barely making it out of every mission always with 0 reinforcements. At one point I had a batch of hunters, some warriors, and a brood mother who were chasing after me after I ran in to grab some ammo and grenades at a PoI and then they just blinked out of existence. Only thing I can think of is the pubs set off another bug breach and the game only wanted to have so many enemy ai active at one time so the ones chasing me just get teleported to the breach in a single frame, or simply deleted.

I never see the amount of enemies playing solo than I see playing with the full squad. I don't think it's fully linear (ie. 4x with 4 players) but there is something...

Been playing 2 player coop for the past few days, is there some trick to deal with 3 or 4 chargers when you don’t have the auto cannon or railgun unlocked yet? The jump from difficulty 3 to 4 is kind of brutal when the only effective anti armor weapon is the EAT. We’re both at level 8 right now.

use EATs on their legs, then shoot the leg, instead of shooting center mass also you can abuse the armor desync bug if you want(where you can damage their legs with normal guns when they're in the turning around animation after a charge(usually))

I've bought the recoilless rifle, and should probably give it a test run on a bug mission. It presumably has better armour penetration than the autocannon, which should be useful so I don't need to worry so much about targeting specific weak spots on highly mobile enemies (or about scrambling around the area to pick up my second EAT after firing the first one).

Recoilless does a load of damage against everything, but unlike the god tier AC it takes a long time to reload. If you can get a loader it fires extremely quickly and will annihilate anything you look at, but as a gun and backpack man prepare for thrilling reload moments as a charger bears down on you.

If anyone ever wants to test deflection they should use the JAR. It says medium armor penetration but that gun bounces more than any other ive seen tbh

And yet it goes through hive guardians and brood commanders armour like it's not there. From what has been said online there are armour levels from 1-10, and there is some sort of deflection calculation on top of that for oblique angles. Could be that hive guardian/brood commander is like 4 and walkers are like 5 or 6 which is just past the JAR's penetration capability.
