Sign me up for one of those tags, they're awesome. I'm standing in the observation area of my ship, is this real time missions ongoing that I'm seeing with all the ordinance being dropped, or is it just background cutscene?

If you look straight up you can see your destroyers hovering above the middle of the map (only 1 km up, someone triangulated using bombardment angles) deploying stratagems you use during a mission. This can be important if a target is near the edge of the map and there's a tall obstacle between it and the middle.

I guess this is just a consequence of playing mid-day on weekends but everyone's extremely kick-happy today. Just got kicked from 4 missions in a row. No real reasons I can suss out for the kicks either, just playing a mission for 15 mins, not doing any friendly fire, killin' big bugs and small bugs alike, completing multiple objectives... then suddenly "You've been kicked" I will say though I'm really enjoying a laser rave build with scythe, laser cannon, and laser dog. Even Chargers are easy to kill because your dog will often blow their leg armor off with the animation bug while you're running away from them and the laser cannon just absolutely melts their legs. Scythe isn't great overall but especially combined with the dog it's great for swapping to and taking out small bugs while your cannon cools down, and the cooldown times for it and the cannon are pretty much in line with each others' heat up time so you never stop lasering unless you're on a hot map, where I wouldn't bring this loadout anyway. The dog makes up for the biggest weakness of laser weapons which is struggling when enemies get close. deep dish peat moss fucked around with this message at 20:01 on Mar 10, 2024 |

So i can clear a trivial mission now in about 5 minutes. 1 Jetpack, 1 flamethrower, 1 gatling sentry and 1 cluster bomb makes very quick work of bugs.

Ciaphas posted:what causes stratagems to be jammed and scrambled in the menu? i joined someone, he died before i landed, and i couldn't reinforce no matter where i ran, which i'm sure was very annoying for that player to watch In addition to ion storms, bot missions can have a stratagem jammer secondary objective that does that in a large radius around itself. Gotta either get outside of the radius or destroy it. On that note, I think the thing with hellbombs not always being available might be because there are variants of the jammer. Some are standalone and need hellbombed/orbital lasered, while others have an attached bot fabricator that can be destroyed the usual ways, and takes out the jammer when it goes.

Turin Turambar posted:Game is still so buggy, as I play more and more I notice many of my deaths are BS. In the last game me and another players were stuck in water, so we had to be killed a third player. I've had a number of times where I just explode and die with absolutely no explanation I can find, like no enemies in view, I'm not moving or shooting and am just typing in a stratagem, and the "cause of death" messages are beyond useless

My friends and I had the game crash last night for all of us, but it was staggered. We each crashed like 1 minute apart, in succession. Very strange.

I've had nothing but success using a mech against bugs. I think even the tiniest splash of explosive damage instakills mechs so I'm suspecting that's what's leading to a lot of the posts about mechs blowing up for seemingly no reason - either clipping yourself with the edge of a rocket explosion that was too close, or friendly fire from a single explosive round or being right on the edge of a stratagem. I tend to call it in and stomp around off on my own and haven't had any issues with it exploding unexpectedly when I'm not near teammates. This is also why it dies so ridiculously fast to bots. I haven't blown myself up by firing while turning yet but I'm often backpedaling while firing rockets which I'd imagine helps prevent that. One of the biggest clutch uses I've seen from it is that it can walk through water without slowing down. If you're stuck on one side of a river and getting swarmed you can just drop the mech and ride it across the river, all the bugs chasing you will get slowed down and you can make an easy getaway. It's also great when you die and can't get your gun/backpack back, it lasts long enough to handle bugs while waiting for your cooldowns.

When I got nearly killed near a power generator waiting to be able to use the lever, I thought "Oh, maybe the devs added a wacky shock to this because random bullshit?" Then I saw somebody spontaneously die while interacting with the console, when another player was also standing near it.

Kly posted:how do you melee attack with the mech? i push the button i use for melee on foot but nothing happens. For some reason only some of the mechs you call down can melee. I can confirm that it's not related to whether it's the free mech vs the strategem mech, and it's not from the two different model variants (two gas cans on the back vs 1)

Okay, either the servers have given up on updating, or there's a hard cap on 250 medals max, which would mean I've lost about 50 medals.
