Might be last thread i make on this. Updates been good, had a lot of fun gaming this weekend but i feel the ending is a complete letdown. Residences somehow ends up as less of a sector than security. The praetoreum was cool though. Also post scientists

How do i avoid getting lost? I never truely get lost, i just take the most complicated route to get back to base every time.
Speaking of, i crafted a trolley thing, can this really transport a whole base? I'm still living in the space before you craft your first energy cell for the door.

Well, it can carry all the buildings, like the crafting bench and such. But it still has only so many slots and you can't pack a crate with all its shit still inside.

Got the first upgrade on the Wessex and comparing it to the upgraded Magbow, to be honest I think the Magbow is still better. With the Sneak 15 perk they both one-shot any order soldier on a headshot but during actual combat the Sniper can't one-shot breachers like the Magbow can. Tried it against the Gatekeepers I can readily fight minus Jotuns, the Sniper's not oneshotting either the regular grunts or the Techpriests. The Magbow is able to one shot the grunts as long as they don't have their shields up, and I've killed the Techpriests in one headshot as long as it's from the behind. Also, one thing that really irks me is how the sniper seems like it goes off of CoD logic if you hipfire it so you can't noscope people, whereas the magbow works how every other gun does and the bolt will go to where your reticle is. Does the freezing upgrade on the Sniper make it that much better? I really love the animations and sound design but the Magbow just seems more practical.

One of the bench upgrades stop the portal raids from spawning, later on you can craft jammers that stop raids from other enemy factions. I never made jammers, initially I had a bunch of tesla towers and eventually I made laser turrets which makes raids a non issue

Just sneak around. Flathill is a (mostly) non-combat portal world.
The giants are slow and they can't fit through small doors.
Just don't stand too close to the doors, they can kneel and reach in to slap you.

This game could REALLY use a better map.
I had all the areas memorized before the update, but now that I've returned to the game after a long break, I've completely forgotten how and where all the different areas connect with each other, and where the entranced to the various portal worlds are. This map is mostly useless.

I normally really hate these survival craft games because every fucking game that comes out these days is a survival craft game but this one has captured my interest. Reminds me of half life and Prey.
I just got out of Flathill and now the raids have the exor guys and the peccarys instead of just pests. That's kind of stressful because I'm all out of 9mm bullets and the pipe pistol seems to shoot pretty slow. Maybe I'll try some traps.
It was funny to me that the chopinator or whatever fan trap just stunlocked the guard robots to death.
I kind of regret taking gardener class and perks at the start because so far I don't need to grow shit, I have so much meat and soup in the fridge I never go hungry

I played it solo before 1.0 and it was pretty good. I imagine it's more convenient with people and sharing duties, but you can tweak server settings if some aspect isn't working for you.

You what? I think RoN thread is two blocks down, buddy.
And if consoles are to blame for improved optimization, thank you ShitBox S, please continue forcing UE sloppers to do their fucking job. This game looks like it should run on a nettop, yet it's very demanding.
So unless you got some screenshots comparing EA and 1.0, fuck off.

>dismantle/butcher/smash actions
No idea why they differentiate between these actions. Most of it is arbitrary, robot can be cut with a knife, vents can be dismantled but computers need to be smashed. We still cant store corpses in a freezer for later use.

This game is starting to rub me off the wrong way. Everything I (or people) have asked for they haven't bothered to implement in any way since early access. Instead, what they have done is pushed a half-finished product and publicise it as complete. For a game claims to be inspired by half life and science, nothing beyond the initial paint job is related to half life. Science is just crafting mundane shit to progress. No object physics, nothing that resembles the gravity gun nor anything that inspires creativity from the players besides the typical survival game base building. Which by the way, still doesn't have grid snapping feature. But here, take this Japanese styled home base I am sure we demanded the devs to include.

I will continue playing it since I bought this shit more than a year ago. Not looking good so far. The trash highschool tier UI design is not making it any easier..

An opportunity for some random scraps.
The lab rat runs around, dropping things like cloth and tech, so keep chasing for more loot.
If you do kill him, he drops some more and cutting his corpse could give you his suit that acts like a hazmat suit. You can salvage the suit for some leather.
If you have the net thrower gun and a blunt weapon, you can get a nice 30 slot backpack if you stun him with the net gun and then kill him with a blunt weapon. It's very specific. He has to be un stunned animation and the kill must be with blunt damage.

This game is really shit for multiplayer.
So far, my experience is
>Some dude just rushing everything because they have played the early access
>Everybody split up for resources & exploration, so most of the maps are unexplored by you yourself
>Doesn't feel the slightest scary or worry feeling at all because there's so many people that can help gather food, water, resources, etc and fight monsters together
I think going multiplayer is the worst way to play this game.

Stop playing with unbearable people and play with just 1 or 2 friends who never played before. No shit the game is a mess with a large group of people. Even worse if said group is full of people speedrunning areas since they played before. I had played twice prior, and this time playing with just 1 friend I pretended I was retarded and didn't know anything, so he could get the proper newb experience.

No need to lug the whole base.
You can carry an empty water cooler to a pool and fill it right there by seleting the cooler in your hot bar and pointing at the pool.
You can then carry that full, heavy cooler back to base and pill your pots from the cooler to boil.
Also you don't have to go to the pool. You can fill your pots, coolers and barrels from the fountain next to Warren.
You can even fish from that tiny thing.

There are a handful of water sources, but the fountain in the plaza is the earliest and easiest. I would probably recommend any cooking base be near it or one of the others.
>Should I diversify my attacks are am I fine just grinding up blunt only so it's as high as it can be
You could focus on 2 attack types, but I would only focus on 1 melee type, personally. Yes, there are enemies much more vulnerable to sharp OR blunt, but fuck splitting all your EXP between them. Dual spec into bullet weapons or if you're feeling quirky, thrown weapons.
>Do you guys break down furniture at all?
Personally? No. Not unless I'm desperate for lumber. Breaking PC cases and monitors is more useful than smashing every chair you come across.

Along with soil, plastic and wood, you also need 2 hoses, for each "block" of farming.
Early game those are fairly rare or hidden away until you get to Manufacturing where there are boxes that hold hoses and a portal world for infinite hoses.

Mind you that minor radiation poisoning doesn't matter at all. It's just there to scare you, so don't waste anti-rad pills as soon as you see the icon.
It's when you get medium poison, there you start to get actual consequence of puking and losing both food and water.

It would be, but don't hold your breath. Palworld is the only survival crafter I've seen try that kind of thing. Pathing and base AI are no doubt a nightmare.

A rat might sometimes wonder in there, but overall that seems like a good place for a home base.

I actually always liked the hydroplant (it's a lot better when you have a clear path through). Sniper is really no worse than in manufacturing. Because of the lack of a ceiling though, the biggest cunt is the security bots at night, those mortars go so fucking far.

Yea, tends to go up the ramp. The left half is definitely close enough to aggro though if it gets line of sight.

I played through EA twice and setup there, it's honestly peak for convience of tram access (and reactors later via cafe). Mr robot isn't an issue unless you build some defenses too far forward, and even if he becomes an issue, look into what traps you can make, and lock him down.

I just took a cart up to the office and strip mined everything and made 4 chopinators. I assume they will need a battery each to function at night? The only I looked up was how the power/batteries work so far. From what I read, Wall socket > Battery > Strip and then giving each thing it's own battery can last the night and works up to 10 items (so every table has its own battery and the base socket one for a little extra)

Don't be like me who never bothered stepping back through the yellow portal in the Praetorium. Go right back through that shit the way you came or you have a long gauntlet to run every time you need to come back.

The very center of this spot used to be a spawn point for base assaults last patch, don't know if it still is now that you access home worlds from there.

How do you grind the rape stat? I've been overpowering all the female scientists I've seen but getting to the "rape anything" level seems daunting. I'm about to hit "male rape" so at least I've have more to work with.

How are throwing weapons?

Traps aside, deatomizer is far your best weapon here, it's really the only weapon that will kill them with any pace.

Traps it is then. Until the deatomizer, that's the least impractical way to deal with them.
