But let's all admit the most FUN way of fighting Thunderjaws is stealing their blaster and using it on them

Any ideas how much space the PS5 version will take?

Trying to avoid spoilers at all costs so don't know the best way to google it. Are there any shared resources needed for crafting? Like, if I get a rare Racoon Skin drop, should I hold off on crafting the first sack because I will need it for something better? I seem to remember HZD being good about that, only using things once (or for future upgrades of the same type)

98 hours in and finally beat the game and am working on upgrading gear now for a hopefully inevitable NG+. I've figured out that Apex machines spawn more frequently at night so I'm using the shelters to travel through time and going to a site. However, I can't for the life of me find Apex Tremortusks. Any advice?

Happy Noodle Boy posted:There’s one spot by Las Vegas (with a shelter nearby) that you can reliably respawn. Go there and there’s just a tremortursk hit a different (further) shelter, pass time to night, then go back to the shelter by it. This almost always popped an Apex for me. Once you get an apex to show and hunt it, the game will continue giving you Apexes for some reason. Hmm if that's the spot I'm thinking about that's where I was trying it. Go to shelter, make sure it's night, kill Tremortusk, teleport back and save, restart from save, repeat. Did it a good 15 times (Dropped difficulty down to story because I was getting angry) and no Apex. Now that I say that I wonder if maybe that's the problem, that they won't spawn in Story mode?

Lobok posted:The overrides are really fun once you get the ability to override tougher machines. There's that one Tenakth mission where you have to take down a Thunderjaw and Tremortusk in the same area and it was great being able to override the Tremortusk and watch them duke it out. I spent more time than I care to admit trying to override 3 Clawstriders so I could make the Jurassic World Chris Pratt/Raptor shot. Sadly could only get two before they killed the third

Happy Noodle Boy posted:Don’t kill it. Spawn (a regular robot), then go to shelter to pass the time to night. Klungar posted:Make sure that the shelter you are using to advance the time to night isn’t anywhere close to the site you are trying to spawn an Apex in. If you fast travel to the close-by shelter when it isn’t already night, a non-Apex version will spawn and changing it to night won’t despawn it, so you’ll never get an Apex version to show up. Haha I'M SO CONFUSED

(You dont need to, regular robots have white armor plates and apex have black plates) Sweet thanks, my Nora Thunder Armor appreciates it! Speaking of which, because I'm way behind in the thread, does anyone have a list of how many of which parts are needed to upgrade all the Legendary stuff?

Alhazred posted:The Veter quest is kinda weird. You bump into her and she asks if you can find a relic she lost. The mission has no marker and doesn't show up in the menu. I pretty much randomly found the spot where the relic was. Then when you go to return it to her you have to figure out who and where she is because there is no marker to show where she is either. Yeah there's a few of these I ran into. Just random areas with "better take a look with my focus and see what happened" with minor vignettes, like a path with things to examine that led to a shelter with a data point.

Ulio posted:-The new type of mount is introduced way too late in the game, not sure why you would work on something like that and have it available only for 5% of the game. I'm kind of glad they waited to introduce it. I definitely would have used it all the time to cheese some of the jump/climb puzzles. Plus hey, the third mount you get is fun too!

I guess I'm lucky, I've got 100 hours in and the only bugs I've experienced are once going through the floor of the base and a weird one where sometimes Aloy doesn't speak the first line of the conversation, but it shows the subtitle. Then as soon as someone else talks she's back.

Oxxidation posted:looks like they just made everything harder across the board, except for that aim glitch Yeah, I really wish I'd just upgraded my Blue bows rather than spending all my shards on purple and eventually the legendary stuff. It's annoying that there's a bunch of different ammos and combinations on bows but ultimately I think it would have saved me a massive headache.

Yeah I dropped down to Story to try and farm them and it's STILL a nightmare. I pretty much have to Freeze, plink at legs, freeze, plink at legs, repeat. Trying to do that without cheating, no way. And you need SO MUCH OF IT.

I got the collectors edition with steelbook and it definitely has a disc.

Finally finished the Gauntlets (I suck at racing) and got the Legendary Warrior Bow and was extremely disappointed. Was hoping it would at least be an Acid/Frost bow but nope. (Reward)

Lobok posted:I'm ok with weapon types being doled out by story missions IF those missions are extremely early. The appeal of games like this is being able to customize your character or playstyle so by doing gatekeeping of combat variety using story checkpoints is not really my wish. Yeah I'm the person that does everything I can before the story missions so I'd rather they keep separate. I'm on board with making them modifiable, keep the innate bonuses the bows have but allow you to adjust what ammo they take. That way I won't have to carry two goddam slings to have Frost and Purgewater for when I'm going against a Fireclaw.

Nottherealaborn posted:Whoever designed the melee combat was terrible at their job. I like that they tried making melee more important and expanded from ZD, but it’s so horribly implemented, especially with no block button. That was the big one for me. With the roll being shorter and there being no way to block attacks, melee was always risky as hell. I like the idea of the Shieldwire tripcaster but I just couldn't find a good way to use it often.

mastershakeman posted:I also just cannot do the final gauntlet race. I'm definitely having fun loving with robots now that I've done the whole game, but those side tasks are brutally balanced. I'm just glad that fast travel packs are cheap, for the first part of the game I was conserving them and going to campfires to travel every time, but around halfway through I said eff it and just quick travelled everywhere. Definitely good for salvage missions since you can travel right there.

Alhazred posted:One thing I liked about the loot was that it added to the narrative that a lot of knowledge is lost. So keys are labeled as Close enough.  Yeah I liked that too, but there was definitely some iffyness on the level of stuff that Aloy knows about from the modern world. One of the ruins is an office building and she calls it that...why would she know what an office is? I guess the magic answer is "It was all in her focus and the archives" but stilllll

So am I just stupid unlucky or does the Apex Stormbird that spawns on top of the Golden Gate Bridge not drop a heart? I was bored and farming so I dropped difficulty down to Story and killed him no less than 10 times and never saw a heart drop.

Alhazred posted:Tremortusks: I thought it was really weird how little they were in the game after being hyped up so much in the marketing, they were the main enemy in the gameplay trailer and a tremortusk statute was part of the special edition. And yet you can only fight it once during the main quests, compared to the slitherfangs that shows up twice plus one more time in Alva's quest. Yeah I thought the same, thought it odd that the big bad robot Slaughterspine wasn't the statue. mastershakeman posted:all the big guys get underused, it's really weird. they're great fights across the board I LOVE the fight music for the Tideripper

How many skill points in total do you get from Machine Strike? As far as I can tell, that's the only thing I haven't completed in the game, but I still need like 28 skill points to max out skill trees. I have everything unlocked, but not all the valor surges are maxed out.

Nottherealaborn posted:It’s 2 skill points per difficulty. I think it goes beginner, intermediate, skilled, expert or something like that. So 8 total skill points for defeating 24 players across 72 boards. Then you finally play the Master (just one master who has just one board), and I can’t remember what her rewards are. Probably a few skill points. Yeah I just looked it up and even with those I'm still 5 points shy of maxing out all my valor surges. Annoying.

There's no reason to keep any of the green or blue weapons, assuming you have the purple and gold ones, right? Like, obviously the Legendary aren't the end all be all but there's nothing the blue/greens can do that one version of the purple/gold can't do better, right?
