Thread 716462162

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

I kinda hate how raids work, feels more like that one shithead cousin is visiting and you're forced to keep him in your room for a while than whatever

>Boy the reaper sure is fast now
>Whatever, I built the laser pistol so I can just shoo him away
>He doesn't disappear after one shot anymore

>>716462162 (OP)
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.

>>716462905
>can this really transport a whole base
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.

>>716462905
Put signs down pointing in the most optimal way

Dare you use the magical throne?

>>716462905
I've played a good 130 hours and still get spun around. Fuckin' cascade laboratories and containment block.

Coziest breads in a while, this game has really consumed all my free-time these past couple of weeks and it's been fun having these to shitpost in

Why would i sit on a toilet when i can just poop on the floor for fertilizer, then wash in the gym pool?

>>716464110
Use the makeshift toilet

>>716464110
>shits on the ground
>uses the public pool to clean self
Indian Simulator 2025

>>716464216
Unironically. In this game you can roleplay an Indian telemarketer

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.

Whats it like to date a Witch?

>>716462397
is there a way to not have them fuck your shit up?

>>716466337
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

>>716462162 (OP)
>>716464073
ZAMN!!!! The science team looks like THAT?!

>that new battle charge perk from blunt weapons
>it even works with heavy sharp weapons
Bueno

>>716466092
What a scientist nerd bitch, the witches are actual baddies.
>>716462162 (OP)
I just got the reactors up and unlocked the forest with the witch enemies before taking a break, how much do I have left in the game?

Just beat the game, what now?

>>716467323
Almost at the end of he pre 1.0 content

>Your base can be raided by the fucking gatekeepers
Christ Almighty, I wasn't expecting that, one of the techpriests wrecked my kitchen

Uuh
Fuck

Can you put a more interesting image as the OP next time you make this thread? Nobody gives a shit how your super unique scientist looks like.

>>716469437
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.

>fog event
What the fuck is this?
I'm holed up in my shitty little security base and everything is foggy and now I'm scared to leave. I finally got two exor hearts for that autopull which is a lifesaver.

>>716469786
just a little fog
why not go walk around in it?

>>716469786
there's a button just outside of the flathill portal which will remove the fog

>Upgraded FAMAS is called the Plasmois Rifle
I love this retarded game so much

>>716469786
>I'm scared to leave
With good reason.

The first time I ran into a Symphonist inside a building in Flathill, I nearly shit my pants.

>>716470456
Man, I really wanted that armor for the speed boost you get with the fog lantern so I ground those shitheads for what feels like an eternity with tripwires and scrapshots

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.

God, I'm absolutely fucked with trying to remember where anything is after not having played in 6 months. Gonna start putting down beacons everywhere.

>>716470586
I killed about 1-2 symphonists and the rest of the components I got from fishing chordfish

>>716465582
The freezing is good but if you really want that just use the shotgun instead

Why do I feel like this is gonna be kinda pointless?

How to train strength? Just run around with a full pack?

>>716471438
Get your carry weight into the pink zone (just below your weight limit in the inventory entry) for best gains, then once you can shake vending machines give them a good hump every time you go by one.

>>716470586
I got the armor parts from the chests and also fishing, me and the boys have been rocking grav cube plus the armor set and lantern for a long time, haven't played since the reactor update but I am going to be very reluctant to shed my speedy jumping armor

The lab is so fucking big

>>716472853
Nah.

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

>Get off tram
>Get socked by a random rat looking motherfucker
>Unload a whole magazine on his butt
>He still runs away
What was all that

>>716472853
Wait til you reach reactors.

What's with the empty as nihongo world, is it just so you can live out your weeabo fantasies by making a base here?

>>716473985
Yes

>try to build base in datafarms kitchen
>fully block up doorway with stuff
>first night
>robot beelines right for it and koolaid mans his way through
t-thanks

>>716474020
You'll need to surround the robot's station with chopinators and tripwires

can you kill the power draining event?

In the forge area now. I did this with friends before but now I'm flying solo. Trying to train strength so I can use heavy weapons, think I'm going to do blunt. This game spooks me all the time and I dont know why. I need to figure out a better baselayout because its hot mess right now

>>716474253
Try sitting in the night throne

>>716473985
there's a puzzle in there but you have to look it up cuz nobody could ever find it by themselves

>>716466337
The answer: use more gun.

There's no stopping this little guy.

>>716471205
I don't think I've ever played a game with maps more useless than AF lol.

Running attack on heavy weapons after perk is so good.
One shots mortar mech back weak spot with sneak attack. 1 shots regular mech anywhere and 2 for containment bot.
1 shots all order bozos, absolutely goated.

>>716474020
Build the base above that area, both can't get up there.

>>716475185
RIGHT
IN
THE
BENUS

Jesus fuck, everything up until you get the shotgun in Labs is a fucking pain in the dick. I'm finally coasting now

Teach me what I should be doing with gardening I've just been making soups

>>716476340
Growing tomatoes I guess?

For people who've played it more, is the game any good solo?
I tried to get into it a couple times but didn't really get hooked.

>>716476371
After that, super tomatoes. Very filling, and good in soups.

Anyone know where the new bobbleheads are? I have the Jotun, Abe 'n Janet and the Krasue but are there others, I heard there was a witch bobblehead somewhere.

>>716476440
It's fine, solo. If you can play any survival game solo you can do it in this one. Everyone has their own idea on what settings you should use, but you don't have to change anything at all if you don't want.

>>716476440
Yes. Play on hard mode, turn off the research minigame, increase stack sizes to 2x and XP gain to 1.2x. Have fun.

>>716462162 (OP)
Reminder to pirate this game. They made their sales on pc and now they're going to fuck up the game over time because consoles need to have parity with pc version.

Amazing game but I'm pirating any game from now on. I paid for a pc game, only for it to be down graded for console and now I don't have access to the superior Pc version.

>>716476609
What the fuck are you talking about anon?

>>716476609
We don't give a shit anon just say you don't wanna spend money

>>716476594
Maybe I should tweak it. I think I burnt out as I felt like progress was slow, but that could just be that I was learning the game still.

>>716476340
Tomatoes, anteverse wheat for meds, greyebs for leyak containment, and glow tulip to get the buff that increases drop chance when butchering shit

>>716469437
Do boom baits work on these guys? I tried it pre 1.0 and it didn't work.

>>716476440
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.

>>716476609
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.

The research mini-game is the most useless, retarded game mechanic I've ever seen.

>>716473985
Its considered support dlc too if you bought the game after early access. Kind of a shame I waited till game release for that area to open up for it just be a weeb base camp location
>>716475185
I put a fold out cot inside this fella, so whenever im super far from home I can get a quick nap if needed because he will always show up
>>716476609
I'll admit the console release has brought a ton of bugs, voice chat is fucked for lot of people my friend sounds like a 2010 youtuber when we use ingame voice, and I don't know how many people noticed but they cut down on the amount of enemies in some areas like the zombie world in first early access version had double/triple the zombie amount

just started, any tips? went trough the first portal and got the anvil, also where should i set up base? i suppose one area with lots of power outlets is good but if there any better spots it would be appreciated.

>>716477548
Play it by ear. There's honestly so many options on how to play that it doesn't matter. Lots of people make bases in the office plaza even.

>>716477548
Don't worry about the number of power outlets, you can build hubs.

>>716477548
Anywhere you want, I live in the 3rd floor executive offices, one x-ray turret outside protects my whole base from butthole rape monster

Can i boil pool water or something? I hauled one water dispenser over to my base, but its all gone.
Also where do i get the power bank thing in the flathill dimension?

>>716478205
>Can i boil pool water or something?
Yes. It's going to be your primary method of getting clean water until you can build a filter.

I hope its pizza friday.

>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..

>>716477525
>reduced number of enemies
Ok, this is serious. Is it apparent in other cases, like liddite checkpoint with machineguns in manufacturing? I remember there was A LOT of grunts.

>>716462162 (OP)
It’s on gamepass, what kind of game is it?

>>716478617
Ive not noticed a lack of enemies.
The crossroads area had a ton of dudes as usual.
But I swear to god if that machine gun doesnt shut the fuck up.

>>716478653
Half-Life flavored Survival crafting

what's his endgame?

>>716478653
Like system shock with mild weapon/armor crafting elements instead of rpg stat allocation

>>716476340
2 space lettuce
1 tomato
2 greyeb
= enough Cosmato Salad wrap to keep you fed and whet, plus some spare Greyeb for containment

Stick with soups if you want the effort though, they're the best.

How come everyone speaks their lines really slowly and unevenly

>>716479314
Besides Manse and the player character and a few other major NPCs, the VAs are a bunch of randos with ali baba Logitech mics

Did they change the range of the bench pulling from boxes or is it glitched or what? I swear my new bench placement is closer than the old one but I'm not pulling some stuff.

>>716473818
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.

>>716479661
*has to be in stunned animation

>last played around 8 months ago
>stopped at the hydroplant
>pick it up back up again
>completely forgot the layout of the entire map and where I haven't been yet
I guess I'll be starting a new playthrough..

>>716479661
Lol that is so specific. Can you figure that out from in-game stuff?

>>716479314
Every character is supposed to be an eccentric genius, and the quirks that comes with that, I guess.

You DID remember to feed your coworker tonight... right anons?

>>716478617
There is still a lot, but now that you mention it I think they got rid of a few extra grunts, its just harder to notice, I recall cutting down more people in EA version before fishing was added

>>716479982
No.
This was pure wiki discovery.

>>716480197
2nd thing in thread I learned about I probably would never, same with healing grayson since you couldn't in version prior so I never talked to him again

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.

>>716480593
are you playing with randoms?

>>716480618
No, I'm playing with friends.
And friend's friends.

>>716480647
probably not the best way to experience the game if you've never played it before

>>716480593
>>716480647
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.

>>716480732
Even if I experienced the game before, I don't see how that would be fun.
>Guys, let's try to rush through and finish the game as fast as possible!!

>>716480831
Find better friends, rather friends that fit the genre more and are willing to build autism office bases

>>716478903
Consuming every piece of furniture that I manually place and ruining what's otherwise a 10/10 game.

>>716479838
I was in a similar situation. Just take it slow, re-explore some of the old areas, it will click back eventually.

>>716478380
>Yes. It's going to be your primary method
should I lug all my shit up to that area?
Two other questions, only 4-5 hours in:
Should I diversify my attacks are am I fine just grinding up blunt only so it's as high as it can be
Do you guys break down furniture at all? I feel like I'm maybe spending too much time hammering shit and wheeling back to my boxes on a cart

>>716481073
You can pick up water coolers and just fill them up at any source of water so you can have a dirty water source next to your cooking station for easy boiling

>>716481073
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.

what's your favourite main base spot?

Why's the game recompiling shaders every time I launch it?

>>716481264
floor 3 offices, easy water source, enclosed space with doors, easy to guard, shock water pool also fucks anything up early game

>>716481073
>should I lug all my shit up to that area?
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.

>>716481268
just ue5 things

These guys don't attack me, so I'll spare them.
I sure hope they don't drop any unique materials.

>>716481268
Thankfully it only did that to me once.

How long before a hotfix for non-respawning portal world furniture?

>>716478571
I dont like butcher directly, wasting your weap dura. Just 1/2/3 slash accordingly to enemy sizes should be enough.

is there a way to handle food early on without getting radiation poisoning all the time? I do have a tomato seed and a bag of soil so I assume I am missing some kind of recipe for a farming device or block

>>716481949
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.

>>716482292
it takes quite a few cooked pieces of monster to fill the hunger bar, so I guess I need to power through for now

Does anybody else have this constant crash issue?
It keeps popping up Fatal Error and crash.
It happens way too often.

>>716482413
Unfortunately yes.
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.

>>716482540
The game's hasn't crashed even once for me, neither before the update, nor after.
Basically,
>works on my machine :)

>>716482595
>It's when you get medium poison, there you start to get actual consequence of puking and losing both food and water.
RIP to the three early ones you get

>>716482413
>>716482595
Also, you'll get soups on cooking lvl 3 and none of the soups give radiation, despite using the radiation filled raw meats.
Soup is king, even if it takes some prepping with water gathering/purifying.

I see people recommend turning exp gain up a little so you get max level skills before the end of the game, but I also see 1.0 changed the EXP gain. I'm going to restart my old world that wasn't very far, do you guys leave it default now, or bump it up a bit?

>>716481264
Above the aquarium in the labs
>looks nice
>water on hand with a fishing spot
>plenty of space
>one entryway for assaults, plenty of cover for your turrets
>T2 robot spawn right next door
>train access

>recompile shaders every game start
MAKE IT STOP

>>716482757
I'm at 150 hours and I didn't level anything to max, so I modded the exp gain to a factor of 1000. Plus it's the only way to make the respec thing now shit.

I don't like how that squid guy changes the game even though I know you can eventually deal with him.

I can now ACTUALLY 2h melee. That zip shield upgrade is pretty huge.

>>716481475
They're the best and easiest source of purported grimoires.

>>716482757
Default but I picked fast learner at character creation.
Kylie is an option when actively grinding as well, not that there is much of a need to.

How do you get the new soldier armour pieces - are they just raw drops, or do you need to carve/net them? Is there anywhere that lists what their set bonuses do?

I love my autistic live-in girlfriend.

>>716483324
Everything but the Grunt, Shotgunner and Captain sets are obtainable by butchering their corpses, Sniper is the most useful if you have and scoped weapons but the mountaineer set is the best overall imo.

>>716483357
It'd be cool if we could recruit npcs in later patches to come work at our base to do stuff like water the plants and collect leyak poop while we're away.

>>716482898
>I'm at 150 hours and I didn't level anything to max
okay, so 1.2 or 1.3 might do me well

Is this good solo? Its how I plan on playing it.

>>716483531
Yes, it's very good solo.

>>716476983
>$60

>>716483531
I've been playing it solo and its pretty comfy. Theres a lot of neat areas to set base if you're into that kinda stuff. give it a shot anon.

>>716483454
>Everything but the Grunt, Shotgunner and Captain sets

Are they just not in the game or found in later areas ? I've always wanted a set of the grunt armor for transmog purposes.

do the lucky potatoes stack if I equip more than one?

AHHH ZOMBIES

>>716483919
They are found in an end game area.

>>716483919
You can find them in the praetorium, you need a special key to get the captain armor.

Do the zombies constantly respawn in the furniture store?

>>716484861
Yep.

>>716484861
Yes. However, none spawn at all as long as you do not press a button.
So take your time, explore the store, mamorize the button locations and gather any materials you want before pressing any buttons.

So I think I want to move my base over to the lobby with the fountain that has entrances to all the areas. Where can I get up there that won't get facefucked by the robot (can't kill him yet)

>>716485065
On top of the trader guard guy.

What's the fastest place to kill gatekeepers for their gear? Shadowgate?

>>716485116
>on top
holy shit

>>716485161
Shadow gate or reactors.

>>716462162 (OP)
Had fun speedrunning on a fresh world for new content with a homie, but I'm feeling a bit let down by the residence sector so far, since a huge chunk of it is S P A C E and T I M E

can you get armor from the gatekeepers in reactors? i've chopped up so many ninjas

>>716485980
Nope you can get only order armors gate keepers only have helms to put on.

I'm just waiting for all these new players to get to the hydroplant.

I have decided to build in this random nook in the lobby
I am pretty sure the robot did not come over here
I hope

>>716487741
Why, what's there?

>>716487853
sightlines

>>716483476
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.

>>716487853
It's where boys become men.

>>716487823
A rat might sometimes wonder in there, but overall that seems like a good place for a home base.

>>716483764
It's $27.99 right now on sale, where the fuck are you getting $60 from?

>>716483764
>>716488287
Even if it was 60, it'd be worth the price.

>>716486752
shiiiit

>>716487823

Its pretty good. Im a Security Office bitch myself

>>716487741
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.

>>716487823
>I am pretty sure the robot did not come over here
Yea, tends to go up the ramp. The left half is definitely close enough to aggro though if it gets line of sight.

>>716487823
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.

>jump packed over the water to the reservoir tower
heh nice try loch ness monster

>love using damage over time effects in games
>first DoT weapon is acid darts for crossbow
fuck i've just been leveling melee sharp and thrown
what weapon class has the best DoT options?

>>716488594
I did the same, could not for the life of me find my way through the water to wherever the fuck the opening is supposed to be.

>>716488740
you gotta go through a bunch of vents it's more annoying than difficult

>>716488496
For me who is an HL fanboy, probably... but I wouldn't expect someone else to think so.

>>716466337
Move to mirror world. Literally no raid nor portal there, not even random blackout event

>>716488553
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.

>>716487823
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?

Is there any way to make a blizzard happen? I'm getting tired of waiting for this new leyak to get into my base so I can put it in a tank.

>leave game
>go back into game
>shelves are unbuilt
>crates tetris landed all over the benches
Eh, I can access everything, so whatever works.

>>716489562
Throwing weapons are pretty alright.

>>716489293
Listen to this man good sir! Nothing bad could possibly happne.
Read the launch patch notes.

>>716489496
well I guess I'll find out the hard way haha

>>716489697
You can just strip naked and eat ice-cream and drink slushies.

Disappear.
This table is an eyesore.
This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table. This table.

is this robot invincible why wont this shit die

>>716490823
Traps aside, deatomizer is far your best weapon here, it's really the only weapon that will kill them with any pace.

>>716491290
i don't even have the blueprint for that, i'm only at the second reactor

>>716488553
pretty good advice, he went down fairly easy, hit me once because I didn't know where the shock trap should go
>>716490775
calm down Tohno

>>716490775
crazy what vamp pussy does to a man

>>716470632
yeah really not sure about the purpose of the map except to click on the little lore blobs for each area

>>716491526
Not a single person read that VN without thinking
>I wish that were me

>>716491382
Traps it is then. Until the deatomizer, that's the least impractical way to deal with them.

>>716490070
Not working.

>>716491382
Deatomizer is a hydroplant weapon.

>>716491787
You have to do it in the game.

So I made some soup, do I just make a shelf or something and jam these pots on it?

They just couldn't resist the temptation to use yellow paint markers. Pathetic.

>>716492609
i realized i never got the stuff from the hydroplant water since i jump packed over it :^)

>>716494764
Soup dont expire. If you want to grind Cooking, then dont make soup on regular basis.

>>716495483
>up to 15 actually has useful stuff
fug back to frying meat

I fucking hate soup mechanic. You have soup bowls in inventory, should be automatically to scoop, right ? Fuck no, you have manually put an empty soup bowl into your hotbar to fill it. Another one, making non-food stuff, like solder and glue. Hold E to put stuff into pot ? Fuck no, put mats on hotbar too.

>>716495870
I'm pinned down by a machinegun on an APC in the Praetorium. What do?
Should I try firing a rocket at it?

>>716496971
There are grenades under the bridge/rpg also works fine.

why is the peccary club raising my sharp weapon skill? Yes, it has spikes, but it is a giant mace

>>716495870
a lot of shit in this game is pretty fiddly like that, why the fuck can't we just carry a full soup pot in our inventory

>>716490823
i just burn the shield down with a deatomizer than kill him with one rocket, the rpg is insanely strong late game as long as you're sparing with the rather expensive ammo

>>716494789
iirc the yellow paint is specifically an IS in the lore

>>716490823
Upgraded FAMAS and 3rd tier SMG do a pretty decent job at killing him too since they deal Holy damage

>giants can reach into open doorways now
that scared the shit out of me

>>716498957
That's been in for a long while.

>>716498957
they always could, and if the doorway is tall enough they can climb right in

>>716498957
Those niggas will straight up duck into an entrance that's tall enough and keep chasing you I shat brix the first time it happened. I think it literally might only be the courthouse where it's possible though.

>>716498192
It's lame but you get a big pickaxe in the manufacturing sector that's blunt.

>>716499135
I was playing with friends when that happened. We just said something like that too and then watched it happen.

hedgehogs

>>716498802
It is. There's both a IS entry, and even a "cell" for it.

>bionic legs
holy fuck now we are cooking

It bothers my autism that your characters hands never change in first person no matter what you are wearing.

I went to a concert yesterday with my sister and I told my friend group don't start without me (common sense really).
So I come home to find they have 5+ hours of more progression after we ended Day 1 T2 Hacker in Manufacturing and I just said fuck it and left them on read.

>>716505093
never understood that ngl, like maybe just farm for 5 hours instead of speedrunning the experience

>>716505492
Or play a different fucking game Jesus Christ they have no tact at all. Two of them also started Wuchang prior.

>>716505492
Or play a different fucking game Jesus Christ they have no tact at all. One of them started Wuchang and the three of them have a Destiny 2 expansion to play I know they regret buying since they aren't grinding it. (never did the raid yet either because they're pussies).

>>716506079
Just play solo bro, it's fun.

>>716506573
I heard there's some enemy interactions you'll never be able to see in solo. That true?

>>716480593
I hate people like that
When you play a game like this or Terraria with a beginner player, you should go at THEIR pace

So if you build a base in around a robo pod, will it actually stop the robot from spawning

I wish there was a reliable way to make regular ammo, I like going around with some normal weapons

>>716507398
Different anon, but I can't think of anything like that. The only thing that makes sense there would be the leyak, which only appears to one person at a time.

>>716508317
No. Set up traps or get rekt. That is actually a viable farming method though, assuming your traps can do the work.

>>716487951
Anon State of Decay games are built on that

>>716468545
you can get a whole ass fucking jotun in those raids.

So does fog actually do anything

>>716508650
Idk, this is where I got the enemy thing from.
https://www.reddit.com/r/GameDeals/s/4hxgXu7bzJ

>>716462905
I was in that area for the entire game
kinda wish there was more of a reason to move

>>716508661
Are they? I don't remember them doing much of anything but sitting around inside your base, and you occasionally getting some kind of salvage bonus they allegedly collect off on their own, but that feels more like a bonus on a timer.

>>716508884
It spawns a rolly boi that you can maybe kill (not the easiest thing) for some armour crafting material.

>>716509097
The gym is actually way better imo

>>716508884
Symphonists and Composers from Flathill will spawn in the facility during fog.

>>716509248
You can actually enlist them as companions for when you go out and do shit
You can also just switch to them because healing isn't really quick in the game unless you use lots of consumables depending on your problems and you can get fatigue too.

>>716508909
Seems pretty vague imo. It's probably more about enemy behaviour and how they might react towards multiple players.

>>716509290
how so?

I just don't like the designs of the exors, too fucking boring

>>716481475
they give purported grimoires and tactical scrap.
the tactical scrap you're going to want 60 of.
do it anon, perform the genoslides.

>>716509841
They got nice arses.

>>716462162 (OP)
can you play/beat this game single player or is it one of *those* games?

I want to fuck the leyak

Smol question does the enhancement desk also double as a crafting bench or do you still need one after making it

I think this game has amazing and horrible map design.
Every area is unique and expensive plus it's all interconnected! On the same hand, the world is a fucking LABYRINTH.
I put in a ton of time into this game with friends, but gun to my head I couldn't tell you how to get where. Even the trans are confusing.
>"Are you retarded?"
Yes.

I'm on the part of the story where I need to turn on 4 reactors, I don't feel like I need better armor but my god if I don't feel like my weapons are shit
Did I fuck up ignoring ranged? It seemed like such a grind

How's my base look bros
I seriously don't think I need so many weapons on me but I can't drop them

>>716510864
You'll still need a crafting bench

>>716495483
Soups do now expire

>>716510770
90% of my 200+ hours has been solo, it's a superior experience imo. You CAN have fun with buddies but it ruins the whole progression and exploring fun

>>716510864
Enhance bench only upgrades weapons. It's very specific in duty.

>>716511557
Not inside the pots though, right
I think they only expire inside the drinkable cannisters and not placed ones

>>716511320
the fuck is that red thing in the middle

>>716510787
Get in line, anon.

>>716482834
The area is too huge, though, so shit will constantly spawn in your base

>>716511758
a kotatsu, looks like

>>716511758
Japanese table you can get from the japanase world

>>716511758
It's a kotatsu.
You can find it in the torii home portal.

>>716511697
>Enhance bench only upgrades weapons
It does also upgrade certain armour sets.

>>716512746
Oh right.

Got that breacher helmet what a beast

>>716509837
Three floors, right next to a pool of tainted water, closer to later areas albeit farther from tramway, not cramped into a tiny break room.

>>716511226
I feel you bro. Doesn't help that many of the shortcuts you unlock only save you literal seconds.

Is it just me, or is resource collection a giant pain in the ass? I remember getting to the science labs and having to find a bunch of these fucking rare isotopes amongst responding assholes, and there was only ever 1 or 2 spawned at a time while you needed dozens

I went into the praetorium with no ammo, just throwing darts and a stun stick. This was the total haul, more or less cleared it all out, probably missed an ammo crate or two. idk how good of a farm it will be because it does kinda take awhile, i bring the RPG to take out the bridge APC

Was completely progress blocked in Labs until I realized that lift elevated to multiple levels. Hopefully I find some of the crafting materials I need soon.

>>716514648
which item in particular? Most shit in the game has fairly reasonable farm rates

Wish this monster would attack me now that I have the xray gun

>>716469528
the tacticool mall ninja character in the OP is what made me buy the game
I thought this game was supposed to have a turbo-nerd aesthetic but after seeing that I can also be sci-fi super trooper I instantly bought

>>716514870
All the shit for projection matrices iirc. That area of the game just made me quit. Complete maze filled with bullet sponges looking for some fucking console with one of the item I need dozens of

What and when's the next backpack upgrade after the security backpack, I hate how many slots I have

]Anyone else who just feels safer in their base with some unfortunate spacemen playing in the background?

Can my soup burn?

>>716488720

there is bleed, fire and acid, but they are all just extra from some weapons, you can't build around dots or anything like that, as a matter of fact the dot damage is pretty miserable in general, just headshoting things will kill them a million times faster.

they are basically just a small supplement to kill those enemies that are left with like 5% hp after a couple of headshots

Holy shit I just got nuked by the insects from the hive I hate it

>>716515801

military or the ratpack if you kill a rat with blunt damage while is trapped on a net

>>716515595
You do know there's three trading machines for that shit, right?
You weren't just grinding Cascade for those crystals, right?

>>716516231
I was yeah..... where is the vending machine?

>>716515595
lmao it's terminal i'm sorry

>move my base to above data farms ontop of the ducts
>finish setting up
>instantly purple rifts spawn and get told I'm getting raided that night
:(

the water filter is SO STRONG

>>716516451
There's 3, they're in the lab
You trade wheat for the spiky crystals, the spiky crystals for the liquid crystals, and silver for carbon

>>716516783
Specifically the Adjustment Labs in laboratories

>>716516451
I'm pretty sure the carbon one is by that one shotgun soldier who deals with the swarm of zombies, but if you haven't unlocked those yet it's at a sort of crossroads
The liquid crystal one is near the laser puzzle that brings you to the other gate facility (Rise, not cascade, my bad)
And the anteverse crystal one is near a Dr. Manse tape iirc

>>716517076
fucking labs is such a maze man, but it's also by far my favourite area. Such a handcrafted labour of love

I'm looking at the map sectors in wiki, and did they remove the last area in that huge cavern with main roadway and then labs on the sides overlooking it? I played it like a year or two ago.
That place was a nightmare to navigate.

>>716517076
Yeah idc anymore not going back to do that garbage again

Does the rat respawn

>>716517543
everything respawns

what is the healing briefcase like?

Does your death lootbag ever despawn?

Why would I make a base anywhere except the cafeteria?

LOL!

>>716518046
Does making a nase somewhere stop enemy spawns?

>>716517690
Great in multiplayer
Good in singleplayer

>>716517943
I'm pretty sure it teleports to Warren if it gets lost
>>716518579
To an extent, yes
A powered crafting bench will reduce spawns

>Finally get to the sniper cunt after getting shot by him a bajillion times
>Stealthily reach behind him
>Try to murder him
>Don't notice I've had a non weapon item in my hand somehow
>He turns around and murders me
Am I allowed to REEEEEEEEEe yet?

>>716518776
Yes
I always try to keep slushy bombs just for snipers

Is it worth making a hacking kit for the security carts? I feel like I wasted a powercell to get that forklift started because when I left it on the lift near the Security Office it just despawned.

>>716518226
1057 = lost, kek

Get comfy

>>716519160
You can press the button next to where you stole it from to resummon it, already powered

>>716519160
Me and a friend recently finished 1.0 content and we didn't utilize a single cart or car. I'd recommend you farm up on powercells from flathills, as bunch of endgame shit needs them, I got powercell cuckolded when looking at the new gear and had to wait for flathills respawns

>>716519609
i had 135 power cells by the time 1.0 dropped

There is no better base than security office.
You get full bathroom.
You get comfy secure entrance with shutters
you get comfy overlook
you get comfy terrace for your comfy overlook
it's literally 10/10 and there's a reason why it's the most popular spot.

>>716519695
You'll be more than set for exsisting items needed for new shit then

>>716519796
Yeah but the location sucks.

>>716519924
Nobody cares.

>>716519924
doesn't matter with all the teleporters they added

>>716519397
Imagine the heat.

>>716519796
Counterpoint: if you use it you're a faggot

>>716519924
What is a better location then? I wouldn't mind moving but nowhere else I've found after that really feels secure. Manufacturing just feels like a clusterfuck, there's no reason as far as I know to build in the mines, labs aesthetically is cool but I haven't really found somewhere that feels roomy enough while still having walls to keep it safe. The Cafeteria is still probably the best place positionally but the SO was nicer to decorate so I moved my setup there as soon as I found it.

>>716520287
Sounds like sour grapes.

should be shitting my pants and saving the shits? I take a swim to get rid of the debuff and I do see you can make fertilizer, but surely the mechanic is not to shit yourself raw and not use a toilet, right?

tried the game with two buddies
both quit because they didnt get the story...

>>716520376
Sounds like you're a faggot (that also doesn't know how use a common idiom; it's not 'sour grapes' if everyone has access to it, faggot)
faggot

>>716520449
Build a makeshift toilet. You can collect shit without getting the filthy debuff or wasting plastic scrap to pick it up.

>>716520449
You can make a makeshift toliet with materials from manufacturing, toliet auto collects and bags it for you

>>716520503
>i can use it
>you're a faggot if you use it
Sour grapes, or faggot.

Nope, one of the grunts didnt even drop his ammo. The 2nd one I got 2 G36's to drop in a row, so that was kinda cool

What makes this game stand out from the 800 other survival crafting games?

>>716522450
half life 1 esque

>>716520895
ESL?

Why is pushing a loaded flatcart slower than just carrying around all this heavy shit in my inventory? It's so inordinately slow that even despite the fact that I can 2x the amount of stuff I'm moving at once with a full backpack and a full cart, it would be faster to just dump have the shit on the ground and carry it in two trips.

>>716522450

>>716487951
Conan Exiles had thralls (slaves) to do things for you around your base.
You would knock them out with a blackjack then drag them back to a torture wheel where the dungeonmaster thrall would break their spirits.

I kinda wish you had stupid movement tools like rollerblades or skateboards in this game

so I guess with this robot dropping a billion sodas every other night that I am now good with thirst forever?

When can I actually put a flashlight on my hat or something and why can't I just use duct tape right from the get go to do that

>>716523084
video game balance reasons, same as why you can make a spinning blade trap without shop tools

>>716523084
Manufacturing

>>716522543
The upgrades to the flatcart make it worth it, but it really shines in multiplayer.
When you have multiple people looting an area, you can take all their stuff back at once.
The radiation proof flatcart is nice if you are transporting nuclear shitheaps and don't want to kill yourself.
The aquarium flatcart served as my icebox when fishing.

Is anyone here using vehicles? They seem more of a hassle than anything.

>>716523225
I'm already in manufacturing, what am I missing

>>716523374
two broken headlamps, an optic lens from the forgemaster, and some scrap

>>716523084
Earliest flashlight upgrade was the security pistol FL, using cutting edge duct tape technology to tape an ordinary flashlight to a standard security pistol found in the office sector (tier 1 hacker).
The headlamp is worse because it makes annoying sounds when you turn it on and off.

>>716523431
yeh but it doesn't go off to the side when you start sprinting either

>>716523328
Agreed. They control like shit, and my characters moves fast enough on feet.

>>716469786
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHOLY SHIT IT HAS SO MUCH HP JESUS FUCK

>>716523328
Not sure how they are now, but they were a death sentence pre-1.0.
If you got in the passenger seat, you'd fall out of the map very easily when someone else was driving.
Trams are the only vehicle you can trust in this game, unless one of your friends takes a shit on the tram, then the shit is stuck midair forever and you'll randomly get shitted on if you sit in the wrong seat later.

>>716476993
The game felt super slow to me as well. Crafting is very tedious.

Did he deserve it?

>>716523789
idk but Janet definitely deserves the raping she's going to get

>>716523328
My buddy and I used forklifts a lot but we are hoarders and made like road signs, bridges, and shit to make our lives easier

>>716519397
Robert always makes cozy bases in games where it's possible, I couldn't imagine spending close to 10 hours building a base myself though

>>716523986
>road signs
Give me an example.

>>716523328
A security cart was nice for traveling through security because I didn't get the hydro shortcut for a while and had to do that drive multiple times.
>>716476993
Depends on the skill.
Getting construction and vitality maxed out was basically impossible (strength was annoying but easy), but your main weapon combat stat, medical, cooking, sneaking, etc are so easy to level up. I never trained these intentionally.

>>716511802
>will
Hasn't happened to me in 40 hours, maybe check the area out yourself to see exactly where I'm talking about? There's only one way in or out

>>716524068
Just a generic wooden sign that says "this way retard" so we wouldn't get off track

>>716524180
Kinda based.

>>716524180
Sounds fun, I need better friends to play this with.

>>716524083
nta, I set up under you inside the aquarium area and I can see why he would think that
If you don't have your crafting table in a good spot it wouldn't cover the whole area up there, but even with my stuff I've never had anything attack me from above (except for the leyak)
The raid spot used to be right in front of the security robot so I had that place rigged up with 5 tesla coils and shock pads to melt anything that dared spawn

>>716522543
https://www.nexusmods.com/abioticfactor/mods/85
One of the first mods I downloaded. The slow ass cart is just annoying in solo.

>>716524073
>strength was annoying but easy
You can wear heavy armors and it'll train without a full backback

>shoot with the shotgun one (1) time
>the animation has him reloading six (6) shells
TOOOOOOOOODDDDD

>>716522281
Wait, there are rifles other than the FAMAS? Neat, won't have to use that french piece of crap then.

>>716524394
Can you just chain crafting tables to create a larger safe zone?
>>716524443
Thanks. I haven't really looked at mods beyond seeing if there were any minor cosmetic mods for more hairstyles/clothes or something. After I saw there weren't any I stopped looking.
The only adjustment I've made for playing solo is 2xing the inventory stack size.

>>716524709
Yeah, I do think it works that way

>>716524394
You don't need to cover the whole area, the only things that can get to you need to walk through the same defences you use for assaults anyway. Functionally this ends up being the odd Electro-Pest that gets instantly fried at the doorstep by one laser turret

>>716524073
>Getting construction
maybe they changed it because I am at 12 and I just started the game, been fucking around in the offices and put the power cell to Manufacturing but haven't gone yet

What was the really good salad recipe with super tomatoes?

>>716524604
It is more that you limit your effective backpack space to like 1/10th the usual so if you pick up stuff on the way you'll hit dark red very quickly.
Doing it naturally while playing was not enough of a % of playtime to max it out.
I trained it in the cafeteria before survival mechanics start up, so I'd just sprint around with a red weight, sleep on the couch for 2 seconds to restore stamina, repeat. I wasn't really sure about the efficiency, but you can also stand at the vending machines and shake them instead of sleeping.

>>716524604
>You can wear heavy armors and it'll train without a full backback
@grok is this true?

how many plots for gardening do I need as a solo player? I only have the small ones atm, made 4 from the hoses in the biolab

>>716525724
The cosmato wrap with tomatoes, greyeb fruit, and space lettuce

>>716525724
Cosmato Salad Wrap?

>>716525751
Yes but it is very slow.

Bros if you play solo make a healing briefcase asap. I went it all the way to containment without making one like a dumbass and I had to run back to base every few fights.

>>716525751
Yes, but like the other guy said it's very slow exp gain and eventually you'll hit the skill level that makes it so you can't actually be at "heavy armor" anymore.

>>716524706
There are, but they have their own tier of bio lock on them from the gate keepers. Thankfully, the item itself is a trinket this time instead of a shitty armor.

where are all the fuckign SLEDGE HAMMERS
I had one before and dropped it somewhere

>>716528304
There is one near the entrance to the labs, where the black hole went off. IIRC.

>>716526193
I'd honestly recommend not bothering with farming until you get the medium plots, since the tier of plot also dictates water drain.

But in terms of plants you'd want :
>Plot of Anteverse Wheat for healing/trading/certain food reciepes
>Plot of potatoes for scrapping into bioscrap/food recipes
>Tomatoes/Super Tomatoes for cooking recipes
>Space Lettuce for advanced recipes
>Plot for Eye plants (only if you're bothered about containing a certain creature)

That's the stuff I've ran for my EA-into-release run, though I didn't dabble too much with all the extra recipes so I didn't have more stuff down.

HOW DO I COOK THE FUCKING MEAT, FELLOW scientists? Appy polly logies for my outburst.

Finally started to get carapace armor now that I'm in the labs. Will I be able to fully xenofreak myself out with armor/weapons in thsi game?

Go into the kitchen and put a frying pan on the stove during the day
Then put the meat on the pan

>>716530743
Fuck yes it worked!!! Oh my science we're saved

I think you can just turn them off in the sandbox settings, or turn down the frequency.
Once you get tesla coils and later defenses they are really a non issue, provided you design your base well. At that point they are mostly just free resource delivery to your doorstep.

You could make enemies a bit harder in the sandbox settings but most people don't want their base actually getting fucked up.

alternately you can fill a pot with water and add raw ingredients to make a soup, your journal shows your soup recipes

you can also just fill a pot with tainted water and boil it to get clean water at a 4:1 ratio

>>716531752
honestly i found it easier to just haul every watercooler i found back to the base until the purifier.
ante-juice also works as pure water (unless you're farming) and you gain access to it in manufacturing iirc

>>716531752
hell yes brother maybe I'm making it after all

>>716531752
if you fill a pot with clean water using a water bottle through the radial menu, not the hotbar, it will fill the pot and not empty your bottle. then you can pour that pot into a watercooler. repeat the process for infinite water. this also works with antejuice.

There has to be a scientific explanation for this..

>>716533147
there's not, blame the gatekeepers for using an IS to try and make more water.

Security armor lets you dick on snipers and ignore robots tho

>>716487853
Snipers, Security Robots, Thalassophobia

>>716520357
The security office with the turrets leading to Helmholtz is a pretty sweet spot if you don't mind the drive or corpses

>>716534324
baka no session

I wish they'd have added batteries to this upgrade bench mechanic. I wish we could just upgrade makeshift batteries all the way up to industrial. I don't like having the useless tiny batteries floating around afterwards.

what the fuck man

>>716536582
ive got one person in here, make sure code is a zero?

I just found that one spot between office an manufactoring where streamers build their base. Yeah, i can see why now.
How do i move all my chests of items over there?

>>716522826
A neat concept, but slaves are just a glorified installation device once you've "enslaved" them. Placed on a piece of furniture for minor bonuses instead of wandering your base to do chores. Palworld's implementation is way more impressive where they do any job they can.

>>716537142
Build a cart and take a few trips back and forth

>>716523328
Generally speaking, not worth the supplies. But if you're doing multiplayer, it might be fun to cart a trunk full of shit across the map to help out.

>>716537142
B-side tram station is better if you don't need a lot of room for multiple players. You kinda need to be able to craft a makeshift toilet before you can base there, though.

>charging pad
>quantum battery
for instant charge ? worth it

Just got the antique shogun, is there a reliable way to get 12g ammo?

>>716536824
nah still doesn't work

>>716538413
Hearth sigil trinket and get to grinding boyo
I recommend tripwire traps to kill the shotgun fuckers much easier, just slap like three of those bitches on a doorway and lure them through

>>716538413
Later on, there are two portal worlds, Voussoir and Rise that have breacher spawns in them. The latter is available to go to earlier, but you need the laser pistol that you can't make until Security to complete the puzzle required to open the portal. As anon >>716538520 said make sure you have a sigil of the hearth equipped when you go to farm it for getting the most ammo out of your runs. Each Breacher will drop 3 shells.

had a guy join then leave, dont know whats wrong then
