If I collect a resource that I'm capped out on, the rest of the squad still gets it, right?

Not really. Even when I brought that combo I still brought EATs too. If you're better at it than I am you could probably bounce the grenades under the charger, but that didn't work so well for me.

That makes sense. Kinda sucks you need to dedicated another spot to charger removal, but it is also super useful for spores and birds nest too.

Maybe I haven't run into the right team but the only reason I wouldn't bring EATs is if the other three players all brought EATs, 500kgs, and orbital railcannon or something similarly loaded for heavy targets only.

I love guys who bring EATS and just drop them every single time they are cooled down regardless. So many times just having a random drop of them backtracking to exfil or whatever has saved our asses. One satisfying (but obviously not the most efficient) way to take care of chargers is to stick them with a reinforce. Revenge from beyond the grave!

They really need to let you team reload without having the backpack yourself, who out there playing difficulty 9's is bringing recoilless without the ability to reload themselves and relying on that one teammate sacrificing their backpack to help you out specifically while poo poo is going sideways and people are getting ragdolled by enemies and allies to death. The only situation I can see it is two people bringing the same weapon and just helping eachother out when poo poo gets hairy with a half dozen bile titans crawling around.

Its nice to have an explosive a few seconds run away if you run into something spicy rather than have to call it down and wait in place for a few seconds until it drops.

You can have one person bring the weapon and then drop a second one in later ahead of a big battle, once the cooldown has elapsed.

Yep. It comes up a lot, but this would make recoiless in particular a very appealing option.

I'm hoping for a general rework and then focus on Automatons soon, or the rollout of the Illuminate. There's been a ton of focus on bugs and it seems there's a bit of a story arc going on with them right now but it's wearing a little thin. I wonder if they have any kind of "boss battle" planned if we manage to push further on.

Definitely. It still wouldn't happen often but if someone had an AC or RR and I could run up and grab ammo from their back (which honestly seems faster and easier than grabbing it from mine) to reload I might actually consider it. Probably not just because being stuck there for so long doing so seems like a death sentence unless you're sure you're protected, but maybe.

Sometimes you crash significantly into a mission, but sometimes you backfill right into a mission as exfil is happening and get a bunch of free samples.

I have had less crashes since refusing to play with others using arc weapons. I think I’ve had one crash in the last couple of days, vs multiple per session.

Mesadoram posted:For those of you running backpack grenade launcher, how do you deal with chargers? Is the GL good against them? 2-3 shots to the butt if it ever stops will burst the charger's tail like a nursing/bile spewer. Not exactly reliable but feels good when you get it. EATs are obviously better but generally I've been seeing at least one EAT user a team so I just bring orbital railgun to contribute against chargers and titans. Edit: had a stalker nest full of bugged out stalkers. They kept spawning and then got stuck staring at us from over the pond in the nest map object while we loaded up some oil tankers. Of course the pond meant it was the two bughole variant so it kept spawning little pouncers and scavengers that didn't have broken pathfinding to try to trigger bug breaches on us until I went over there and shut everything down.

I've been thinking something kinda big has to happen soon because we've pushed the bots and bugs back to the rim. Whether thats and explosion of force from either of those factions, or both, or the Illuminate showing back up, who knows.

I fell in love with the sickle (laser rifle that goes pew-pew) but then realized it was a bit silly to run it with the resupply pack: I rarely went through more than 1/3 of my heatsinks. So I went back to the Defender and have fallen in love with it all over again. Mainly because I remembered it's an SMG so I can hip fire to the side or behind me as I run.FunkyFjord posted:I could see an attachment system working for just about everything.

Yeah I don't care if I have to spend 80 common samples to get a new scope on the Lib-Pen or AMR, I absolutely would do so in a heartbeat.
