guys i might start KOS'ing people in solos
something horrible is happening to me i can feel it... im becoming.. evil...

>>545206914
team up with me then so you dont get the urge

Does upgrading the rooster faggot even do anything? He still brings back the same number of materials as before.

first for total clanker death
also, tfw still no anvil blueprint

>>545207034
TFW extra bp

Where does one find apricots and lemons?

>>545206814 (OP)
your PREVIOUS saar

>>545126395

>>545207108
gib
ill give you one of these bad boys

>>545207197
oopsie! was in a hurry. made this thread while dropping into a raid

what graphic settings are you bros running....

hows the vulcano? should i bring it with me on a night raid?

hows this one?
they really need to tell us the exact values of all talents

Solo stealth raiders rise up

>>545207108
>>545207235
imo, the anvil blueprint is worth at least 60k+extra niceties

>>545207752
I maxed out the yellow stamina ones on the left of the first branch, what's next?

>>545206814 (OP)
Man I hope someone makes a new OP image soon cause this ones so fucking ugly.

>>545207582
actually good, get the magazine mod and at least a level 2 shotgun choke

I have anvil bp and played it a fuckton, but I honestly prefer ferro 4 because of the accuracy

>>545208035
crouch with the anvil and it focuses accuracy

>>545208035
this. im a controller chud and the anvil for cqb/medium just isnt it for me.
and for long range the ferro is just better

Who else /snackpilled/
Waiting for the timer to run low before throwing 10 trigger grenades onto the bastion outside.

>>545208224
certified rat behavior

>augment: none

oh yeah, it's time to sit in the tower next to ancient fort and grief

>>545208279

>being patient enough to wait out all other players
>rat
this is just safety

>>545208380
yes anon that is also rat behavior
ur a little rat hiding in ur corner feasting on ur cheese before heading out

>>545208279
Listen man I need those cores, and Buried city has been the most hellish pvp zone ive seen so far. I killed 4 people in the hospital earlier today and dont get me started on the Analyser location.

>>545208191
I already do, and I think it's my fault for spotting people so far away all the time and wanting to take off their shields and reposition

>>545207582
it fucking rapes, went into night buried city used the town hall key a 3 man came behind me and tried to rush but i just unloaded my level 3 mag and raped all 3 with a couple bursts

Buddy and I just dropped into Dam
Got aggro from a Wasp, killed it
Then Wasps and Hornets kept repeatedly spawning right on top of us, without stop
We went inside a building and they kept shooting at us through closed doors

I hope that's a bug

buried city chads where we @?

is this game fun solo

>>545209146
Yeah, even with fill squad you can often find friendly lobbies.

>>545209146
It's extremely well geared towards friendless losers honestly. You can go solo which only matches with solos, or you can match with a group which has been fine so far

>>545209146
Incredibly so.

>>545208279
This is being a rat in a charming way at least. Bro is literally snacking on cheese scurrying away from players

teamed up with someone in solo and we completely operated on these 2 other guys to secure the fort loot

>>545209146
It's Very fun solo or trios. Duos can be a little rough as squads is very Kill on Sight and you're down a player but its still pretty fun

Game needs a duos mode. Trios are too chaotic for this game

Raider caches are fucking nuts, now I have a spare anvil BP

Game needs a quads mode. Trios are too calm for this game.

>>545210206
gib

The characters are not Italian enough for a game that takes place in Italy.

>>545210594
true. needs more POC

>>545210718
That's more of a Rome problem than Northern Italy, I'd figure.

where was I supposed to look at Barren Cleaning

why are people obsessed with getting an Anvil bp when you can just buy them???

>>545210594
This game should've taken place in Switzerland.

>>545210206
how much

>>545211225
not4sale

>>545211185
shitters go through more than 3 anvil per day and *NEED* more

Thank you for funding my next deck, Embark

When will Embark Studios start selling good looking cosmetic bundles? Six months? A year?

>>545211137
There's a downed mech that has been decorated. There's a dismembered leg on the side right next to an antenna that you need to interact with

>>545211702
if I don't hear a real voice I'm shooting you it's that simple

Death to all carebears.

Once all my stations are maxed out THEN im KOS everyone.

>spawn on Spaceport

>he gets behind a nearby building just in time to eat another taser shot and I see his flare go up behind it
You get what you fuckin' deserve, you filthy animal.

Carebears has to be some sort of gov psy-op.

>>545206814 (OP)
You skipped thread #5?

>kill a few hornets because they somehow spot me
>5 of them suddenly on me
>fight of my life but i survive
>teehee bombardier spawns next to me
cool

>>545212439
no, last thread was #5. OP fucked up in the last thread.
also WTF are the humidifiers at

only +40 levels left to go....................

wheres the anvil blueprint.....

Do the jolt mines have a maximum duration before they detonate?

My plan is to put one on an elevator console then hide nearby with an osprey and wait.

No one fucking pays attention. They just run up and hit it and I'm going to use this against them.

>>545212547
>WTF are the humidifiers at
I found several in the Dam apartments when I'm looking for some MOTHER FUCKING PILLOWS

If you have second thoughts about killing someone remember: they already stuffed what they needed in their ass. Drop them.

>>545213169
they detonate pretty fast
once you notice you've triggered one it's too late

>>545213169
They will persist

I like feet

>>545209146
very rare for multiplayer shooters to not be squadslop forced, i'd say so.

>looted anvil blueprint from location i don't remember
the time has come and so i have i

>>545213663
Excellent.

Let this be a warning to all of you. I am out there. I have rigged certain consoles with mines. And I am waiting nearby.

Live or die, choice is yours.

Anyone found blueprints for craft parts?
Shit like magnets, spring and whatnot
My entire fighting style revolve around nades and I'm running out of part to make them

Is it possible to melee a Fireball to death without taking damage

>>545213883
I've found a BP for Medium Gun Parts. Does that count?

>>545213883
magnets and springs do not have blueprints unfortunately
need to find a good spot to farm them myself honestly

>>545213883
>>545214082
buy them

>found a whole-ass torrente in a kitchen drawer
Ok

This game will be impossible to get into in a month once everyone has done the quests.

Solo rn is basically passive.

huh someone said nvidia filters dont work but they're workin for me
no clue how to take a picture of the overlay though

>>545214139
The scanner quest is already a pain in the ass, people camp that shit.

>>545213883
check Celeste, you just need seeds.

>>545214116
daily limit dickhead

>>545214139
>This game will be impossible to get into in a month
Why?
Free loadouts exist and full purple is barely better than full green

>>545212580
first capstone on the right in yellow tree is a scam btw

>>545214139
Game has only been out for a ~week.. I'd only take about 2 weeks to catch up to the average player which at that point it purely becomes who's the better pvper

>>545214452
Cause when I do the free loadout quests, I run past maybe 10 or so other raiders making their wait to their next objective. Now imagine a month from now when all of those players are just bored and looking for PVP

Whoever "Based" was, I know you're in here faggot and I'm happy shitting on you for being a 4chan user pissed you off that much.

>>545213879
Trigger nades also persist and they resist direct explosions - you have to shoot them. By then, it'd be too late as they'll have been stunned by the jolt mine. All it takes is a careful watch then... *detonate*

>>545214741
Noted

Needs a QOL update asap. A few perks are completely useless. Inventory management could be way better. I should be able to partially complete quests and workshop upgrades to remove shit from my inventory

>>545213612
You think that until you crack them open and find the free loadout

280 stash and Level 5 Scrappy... I can finally play this game

The best aspect of the arpeggio has to be how easy it is to identify the shots are so no one can try to play dumb about being the one who shot you

>>545215989
this + all workstations lvl 5 and expedition ready 2 takeoff.
time to play the fucking game boys

Why do NA niggers come to Asian server?

>>545214139
yeah resetting sounds worse and worse as time goes on desu, id rather just have all the shit i found instead of having to refind shit again.
imagine finding an anvil bp and giving that up just to get +5% xp after reset

>>545216368
cause asian players suck nigger ass without hacks

>>545216368
White man's burden

Where the FUCK are rusted gears

>>545216368
what was that? i can't understand your accent ching chong

how do we feel about the controller rumble effect in this game?
we cant even turn it off apparently.
its alright though.
also, i thought my clown gear would look out of place but apparently im camo'd as fuck

>>545217439
>controller

>>545217439
i don't mind controller for comfy games, but if you use it for a shooter then you deserve every inconvenience visited upon you

HOLY JUICER BP

>when youre a murderhobo but also save people from other murder hobos and let them live
where there are saints I slay them
where there are demons I slay them

Dear embark studios,

Please.

>>545216368
Because I like to squish bugmen.

>>545217439
why is your character's ass so fat

Not that I mean to doompost but I don't see this game surviving more than a few weeks after being initially hopeful.

>netcode worse than tarkov
>can do everything the game has to offer within 48 hours (except collect every BP or grind the leaderboard, i guess)
>novelty of friendliness will be gone in a few days when more people are progressed
>absolutely nothing to hamper RMT, cheaters will be rampant
>can solo every arc in the game pretty easily, including the queen. biggest threat is getting killed by timmy hiding in a bush for 20 minutes.
>endgame involves movement cheese through jump + slide spam / using the snap hook to abuse peakers advantage because of how fast you move

not lookin good bros.

Is there an AFK timer in this game? I want to chill at map border until the final minutes

>>545218859
Sorry bud but you are not the target demographic (working man) you NEET

>>545217439
Go away avatarfag.

>>545213339
just found one over there, thanks!
4 more to go

>>545218859
>peak

>>545218859
5/10 bait

>>545218859
>netcode worse than tarkov
I know it's bad but let's not exaggerate here, it's not "desync from the server and randomly die because the server thinks you're standing still where it happened and some guy shoots you while you're miles away on your screen" or "literally half of your mag is going to be no-regs" bad.

>>545219048
I work a full time job. The game is just that easy compared to something like speedrunning kappa in Tarkov.

Tasks straight up have no variety or challenge. 80% of them are to walk somewhere and click E. Don't have to risk items or anything.

In one weekend I have full level 3 workshop, expedition complete, and all quests completed. Only thing left to do is shoot everyone I see.

>>545219512
That's some sweatlord shit. I only have half my stations at 3, 25/60 quests done and maxed my chicken out.

i only have one workbench maxed....

>>545219892
>i only have one workbench maxed....
It's a marathon, not a race, anon
Play at your own pace

>>545219892
>i only have one workbench maxed....
It's a marathon, not a sprint
Play at your own pace

killed some dudes while i was glitched into a wall, its over for me

>anvil BP acquired
Finally, now i can play the actual game.

>>545219892
it's a sprint, not a marathon, hurry the fuck up loser.

>>545220334
i want to slytherin their chamber of secrets

Who the fuck are these fuckers, RMT people I guess?

>>545219445
Really puts it in perspective, thanks anon.

>>545218859
Agreed as someone who has seen hundreds of game launches and isn't blinded by the new shiny.
Fun as hell right now but I don't see myself playing it in a month. Maybe even 2 weeks. No problem though, I got my $40 worth already.

>>545220595
kek let me guess: you played on asian servers
happened to me too.
also, im back to eu because asian faggots are gay as fuck

>>545218859
Bottom sounds based and fun, actually.

>>545220867
it does not. sounds tiktok zoomer as fuck

This game is much more bearable than Tarkov because the downtime is short. In Tarkov you queue for 15min, wait for another 5min for that fucker with potato machine to load map, get head-eyed 5min into the map, spend 10min doing inventory management before you can queue up again.

>>545220993
just wait until playercount drops to 5k and you will have your 15 min queues in ACK too

>>545220974
>Actually that sounds *buzzword* *buzzword* as fuck
As expected from a tarkov bot.

>>545218593
imagine walking up to something like a Queen and the point of damage is its main body but as soon as its about half health its legs extend and now you have to use long range weapons.

Best way to farm ARC circuitry?

>new to the game
>loot stuff
>head to elevator
>have to fight another person
>elevator leaves in 5 seconds
>decide to just let him in
>kills me


game seems to thrive on just pissing people off for no real reason, why would I continue to play this game? especially when 99% of the combat is killing people from behind, and the other 1% is losing because they have a better gun. I haven't had any kind of actual firefight other than the one above. kind of boring

>>545220534
harry potter is for women and faggots (I am neither)

>>545221450
wow you so macho

>>545220534
I wish my raider could have black lipstick.

>>545221449
the tension is what makes the game

>>545221441
Downed probes. Wait for map mod I guess

>>545221441
Probes, preferably the still functional ones with three lootable panels.

adrenaline shot is the best item in the game. prove me wrong

>>545218859
see I was thinking of getting the game but you are right, I mean what is there to do once you have technically everything? I don't see an end game

This game is rage bait like no other.

>night raid sand town
>get hounded by drones
>"where's an entrance to anything?"
>30 seconds later have dozen drones shooting me
>almost screaming 'WHERE THE FUCK IS A DOOR"

>>545207014
He brings less since i upgrading it to 3 wtf. Its a scam

>tried snaphooking and ziplining up on launch tower loot
>snaphook can only make about 2 levels per full charge
>zipline can skip 4-5 levels each
If you go solo or with a team, pocket your snaphook and snaphook about two levels up BEFORE you place a zipline so no one else can follow up up then start placing zips, you might be able to make the whole thing on 6-7 ziplines.

Lush Blooms at Dam, now is the time to find your rooster items

>>545221449
Sounds like you're just dogshit

I love saving raiders from flying arcs from across the map.

Where to find snitches when it's not night on buried

Oh waiter, more meta blueprints please.

>>545222042
Thtat's what it feels like to me now too

>>545223629
why is your characters face covered in feces?

>>545223720
I couldn't resist being the peepee poopoo man.

>>545223704
Level 2 it would bring me max 12 pieces of each thing. Now i'm back to like 3 ? Wtf is going on with this.

this has to be my 5th bettina BP... meanwhile: still no anvil

>>545223519
Swamp on Dam always has 1 or 2 roaming there.

>>545223720
Cow poo festival

>>545223914
Got 3 of those. I've seen other people saying the same. This shit is bugged/rigged.

Another spare anvil bp

I hate those shits so much

>>545224509
just give me one already

>my greens are now blues
>my blues are now darker blues
>my whites remain white
excuse me, but nani the fuck? Who asked for this bullshit change

I like the game a lot but I think something is wrong wth my audio setup, maybe even my headphones. Ive had several solo fights where Ive teamed up with someone and theye been like "I hear someone" or a guy a floor above me, telling me he can hear me.

Im not running around like a retard or setting off loud doors/alarms. It literally feels like Ive got a very short radius around me I can hear, and that others can hear me always before I can hear them

>>545223519
Go to the top of the tower on dam and you're literally above them, go up there with a ferro and plink at them

>>545225284
Use night mode

>queue solo
>see guy get killed
>rush to save him
>down dude who downed him
>lil bud dies
>get shot by 2 others thinking i killed them
>plead
>theyarentlistening.jpg
i had to kill them all... i didnt want to be the bad guy but i had to kill them IT WAS ME OR THEM !!!!!!

>>545225356
sir going nig mode.

>>545225284
night mode amplifies things like footsteps

>>545225896
shouldn't you always have it on then?

>>545225928
yes

>>545225767
why

>>545226081
i have to watch all the youtube videos that have AR "tips and tricks" and "things i wish i knew" titles first so i'll be the perfect raider

>>545226220
lmao. and why do you have to be ingame for that?

>>545225284
Same as Tarkov, most people have their volume up INCREDIBLY loud. Permanent-hearing-loss loud. This doesn't have as big a problem as Tarkov does with excessive dynamic range, especially thanks to night mode, but it's still a problem.

>>545226304
in case i feel ready to raid of course

>>545226514
nta but I hope you're skipping frequently, all game "tip" videos like that are deliberately long purely to hit ad revenue thresholds

first quest ive seen that gives coins lol

I'm only unfriendly if I have missions to damage raiders

rockateer owned me right as I was running to catch the elevator, some dude waltzes onto the elevator and sees me get owned, I'm crawling to the elevator and he thinks for .2 seconds then pops me ded

It was the most disgusting cowardice and luck for him, I was even carrying the shotgun blueprint lel. Have to respect it. But seriously remove rockateers from the game

>>545227002
bring a lure nade bro they are OP

>be me
>free kitting
>both my squadmates have real gear and medium shields
>one falls down one of the trenches in the dam
>he ends up in front of a squad of three
>other squadie goes down the stairs
>I drop in above from the catwalk
>squadies get shit on by guy with vulcano
>I get on top of the generators below the catwalk and kill all 3 of the other team with a level 1 stitcher
>walk away with an anvil bp and a vulcano as the cherry on top
That was the most fun I had in a round

>>545225356
>>545225896
jesus christ really? this is why?

>>545227083
fuck you're right, do you just toss it and the rockateer chases it like a dog and a stick or what

The rockateer spawned out of the ether and immediately locked onto me, I swear to God. I was crouched in a bush and it just immediately locks onto me out of nowhere and I can't even dodge its stupid rockets

They need half nude skins for the girls

If I hear gunfire and a bastion, bombardier, or rocketeer shooting for an extended period of time across the map I WILL drop whatever I am doing and sprint over to help kill the bastard.

night time dam is on the menu babby

>>545227619
western devs need to start outsourcing the char customization art and style to asian devs

Wish I could side with ARC
They are the good guys

>>545227660
this except I am killing you and taking your shit

>>545227660
>>545227787
>I WILL drop whatever I am doing and sprint over to help kill the bastard
>kill the bastard

Let's face it, with this community, there's a 99% chance he meant kill the raider who is being owned by the rockateer

>>545227619
No they just need skins that aren't fucking hideous and faces that don't look like deformed freaks

In order to take the capstone, do I need both the nodes in front of it, or just one of the two?

>>545227002
Just remembering I had a raider hatch key too, didn't even need the lift. Why do I stop using my brain whenever I get a decent drop or I'm anxious about getting pvp'd

So le twist in the lore is that the humans that left earth are in the matrix(the finals) in some floating space station and the AI in charge of keeping them alive is making the ARCs to harvest resources off the planet to keep the alive right

>>545227619
I want my raider to look like this.

I an dedicated solely to hunting snitches. I only go in with
>ferro
>40 rounds
>5 bandage
>2 shield charger
And all I do is hunt down snitches and shove their scanner up my ass.

I plan on bringing 20 scanners into a raid and throwing them all at one person

>>545228184
i want mine to look like this

>>545227967
In order to take that you need a cumulative sum of 30 something points, then you can get it from either side

>>545228676
>then you can get it from either side
Perfect, thanks. I really didn't want to take the lower connected one even for a single point.

>load into buried city absolutely naked
>no augment, shield, guns, nothing
>solid snake my way into the park, grab lemons, shove them up my ass
>laugh when some guy chases me down and kills me for literally nothing

it feels like I'm getting spotted in instances where it should be impossible to see me, like through rain or fog or dense brush. Are there any specific graphics settings that I can turn down to make other players more visible at distance?

>>545228462
I want mine to look like this

>>545226906
same. and quite often I do it when exfiltrating with other raiders right before the hatch closes so they keep their loot and I get my quest progress

I actually disabled night audio mode again. rain and stuff is just too loud with it enabled

>>545228462
I want to look like this

>kill leaper
>only drops one leaper mcguffin
>kill another
>drops 3
Pretty good I guess, I wonder how good those are to use as actual weapons

>>545229632
i want you to look like this as well anon

>>545229013
Foliage to low
Shadows off
Night audio mode on

>>545229680
man where you finding these leapers?
Now that i'm working on my station 3 I can't find the bastards anywhere.

>>545230491
GO TO SPACEPORT, LOOK AROUND MUCH.

THIS is what I actually want my raider to look like.

How do you think they'll plan on fixing the skill tree?

>>545230491
They seem to have guaranteed spawns, always one near the middle of spaceport, and always one near one of the elevator extracts on dam.

They're pretty easy to kill too, 6 of those green sticky grenades and just a few shots takes one out

>>545230709
>>545230709
Too late i'm in here with my hullcracker time to get blasting.

Uhh okay I guess.

>>545220334
I fucking hate women but I don't hate fucking women

the amount of white monsters I consume when playing this game

>>545230894
Let me know how much ammo it takes

>>545230629
what're those skills on the top right? I just bought and am downloading the game now.
also I can barely tell the difference between those colors

>>545231261
Sure. i'm snackmaxxing at the moment because if these freekits see me with the registered boomstick I know my ass is getting dropped.

What sidearm do I bring with Anvil

>>545231452
Burletta

>>545231395
More carry weight (over-encumbrance is a bitch in this game), chance to reveal loot twice as fast for faster searching, and the ability to pop open security lockers which have top-tier loot inside them but can only be opened with the skill.

>>545214481
qrd?

this has to be the most useless location in the entire game.
i went to all floors and there was not a single searchable object and only 1 zipline laying around.
wtf is this

>>545231748
I found a random torrente in a kitchen drawer there, lol.

>>545230629
I completely disagree about the first big node on the right in mobility being bad. Gaining stamina as if you were standing still but as you walk is pretty nice. Always be moving.

>>545231892
Walking isn't the jog you do, it's a separate keybind that's slow as shit.

>>545231748
Definitely, it has fuck all in there ever. I've never been at night though.

devilish

I keep looking at the map and trying to see what other playable locations there could be, there's the volcano I guess

>>545231963
Wait are you fucking with me or has it meant literal walking the entire time

>>545231892
Walking =/ jogging

whats the point of quests other than just getting shit? just stuff to do?

>>545232327
Sorry you wasted your skill point. It means walking.

>>545232327
Literal walking, check it in keybinds. Put mine to capslock but haven't used it since hearing that the skill is garbage because the jogging your character normally does isn't "walking".

>>545232478
>>545232491
I might cry bros

>>545232327
Holding W is not walking. Walking has a separate keybind that's slower than just holding W. That's why it's in red. Literally half the skills in this game are unusable dogshit because the devs couldn't just actually tell you what it means.

Fun fact: It's actually faster to not use the walk skill than to just recover stamina while holding W.

>>545232419
Same reason they exist in tarkov. They force players to go to different parts of the map that aren't just for loot and they unlock more blueprints, give big boosts of xp, and rare items as rewards. Some of them also help as tutorials for game mechanics

I only walk when I am looting a building.

>>545232419
PvP in this game is only meaningful when there are stakes.
There are only stakes if you have retards doing PvE to be pinatas for you.
Quests trick retards into doing PvE.

>>545232556
>because the devs couldn't just actually tell you what it means.
It literally says walking. Not the devs fault people read the word walking and say "Oh wow that must mean jogging."

>>545231748
Yeah they need to update it and put more inside there

>>545231261
>>545231402
Update:HULLCRACKER FUCKS against Big Arc.
took about 10 rounds.

'high loot' areas should be random in each round. ie, currently yellow ones and currently red ones (and some that aren't marked at all right now) should be random colours each time (with the same total density overall).

Gangbanged by two wasps and a hornet again

I think my most favorite map is buried city by far
the whole urban map let you juke people left and right doing parkour and shit
I was hating Dam gameplay where you just get shot by ferro if you ever stop by to do anything

>>545233370
kek the snitch is the best

>>545233379
Buried city and blue gate

>>545233379
>I was hating Dam gameplay where you just get shot by ferro if you ever stop by to do anything
Oh boy, you're going to hate "Space"port then, loads of open areas with no cover so some schmuck on a balcony with a ferro/renegade can just potshot you to death where they'll never be able to reach you.

>>545233379
If you want a laugh, go to a high point and watch the city.
It looks like a scooby doo chase scene with people darting in and out of buildings.

soon

people complaining about ferros haven't dealt with osprey campers yet

>>545234268
tell us the hard numbers on what you get when u complete anon

sad but he got owned, Ijust know he saw the jumpshot

Me and some randos in solos buried city just formed a roving death squad and killed every large arc in the map and then extracted with all the loot

>>545234381
apparently you cant complete it just yet. the caravan departures at set times. sometime in december is the first departure i believe

>>545234545
so you can complete it ahead of time but you wont be able to actually wipe until that date, that's kinda interesting?

I just sold all of my purple gear.
I will never use it anyway because I can't risk losing it.
>>545234602
yeah apparently thats how it works

anyone know if there is a tagging nade blueprint?

finally. That last rusted gear was painful. Also, I am on my knees praying we get a loadout feature of some sort. I swear the biggest reason I let my stash get piled up is that I don't want to deal with looking at all that shit and end up taking something free/minimalist.

>>545234602
basically you can complete it now and then you can finally play the game for the rest of the "season"

>>545234297
The difference is that osprey campers have something to lose, where's any dipshit and his mother can roll a free kit ferro and grief half the lobby by taking worthless potshots from the nearest tall building

>>545234830
Do we know if the bonuses stick around going into the next "season"?

https://streamable.com/rbxsf0

godspeed you black emperor

>>545234968
I think the bonus like extra skill points are just something you use up immediately next season. you aren't going to gain 1+X bonus points per level up.

Just bonus up front

>>545221449
try not fighting i guess? for sure there are assholes, but most people are nice. granted i have only a few hours in, as i'm a wagie, have a family etc, but i've only been shot at once in this time, mostly people are in for cooperating

bros whats the best way to capture the last ~60seconds of gameplay with the least impact on performance on pc?

>>545235169
camcorder + tripod

NERF THE ANVIL
NERF SHOULDER PEEKING
BUFF ASS SLOTS

>>545235131
stop using my haircut and my crosshair (mines white though as it should be)

>>545234268
I haven't unlocked this year but I'm close. What the fuck is this, is this seriously grinding the privilege to be able to delete your character at the end of a season or what, why is that just not free

>>545235238
Tighten up the netcode so people aren't being blatantly shot around corners.

>help a guy pinned by two wasps next to extract

because you will get good shit for doing it. like 5 extra skillpoints on your next character. gotta earn it

>>545235235
fuck off dsp
>>545235459
the new steam recorder aint it? or the xbox gamebar thingie

>>545235169
steam record is probably the best right now

What's even the point of all these random melodramatic prerendered cutscenes when finishing random quests, none of this matters at all and there aren't any actual 'characters'

>>545235685
There is a larger story and mystery around the ARC though. It's not completely worthless.
But yeah I'm gonna keep holding E and just reading plot summaries instead

>>545235685
all of the quests / "story" are pretty vague and uninteresting.

No one cares about plot
Give me sex scenes

>>545235876
They're either aliens, skynet or horizon zero dawn, mystery solved

>stranger is down at extract
>call for elevator instead of knocking them out like an asshole
:3

>>545235986
I wanna FUCK that robot

>>545236047
No, they're ARC. it's literally in the title. duh

I just want a female skin that has a boob window and huge bouncing physics

>>545235986
I hope the eventual social hub update that allows us to roam speranza gives us a NPC girlfriend with upgrades similar to the cock.

Yea I think this is one of those games for me that's only fun with friends. I enjoy Tarkov solo more than this for some reason.

Ferro should get changed into a single shot shotty.
>>545236202
That too.

Found a guy who got stuck floating in a corner. Tried to get him out hitting with hammer, told him about spamming space and unstuck but nothing seemed to work and I had to leave him. I hope you eventually got unstuck random person

>>545236431
Knock him down and rez him

>>545230629
Stamina return on taking damage gives you 1/4th of a bar, which is enough to dodge roll without tapping out if you were low.

I think anything that gives you stamina for free is pretty good.

>>545236431
using a zipline should work next time

>call someone a nigger because he's acting like a nigger
>check their ttv after
>it's a nigger
its weird how you can always tell someone's skin color by the way they act
why is that?

BROS HELP

>>545236102
You just reminded me of that time in the server slam where I stole the extract of someone who had been downed by ARC and literally slammed the door in their face because I didn't realize they were crawling towards me until the last second.
I still lie awake at night thinking about that one.

>>545236348
please dear god let them have massive cocks and balls

Why can't I pull down the pants of a raider using a voice changer and have sex with them when they're downed

I have a mission for shooting heavy ammo at raiders
If I roll a Ferro I WILL go murderhobo

we need more finishing moves. and new skins for our pickaxe

>>545237284
They're all women, sorry bro.

>Dont take freee kit
>No shield, no kit
>Just ferro and 30 heavy rounds, no bandages

ehehehehehehe

Predictions for the upcoming shredder and matriarch arcs?

Why can't I knock out and impregnate free kit users?

nb desu

>>545237573
my best so far was 29k+

>>545236102
That's pretty cool. I just blew a guy's head off while he was trying to extract with me. It was pretty funny.

>running to exfil
>someone already called the elevator
>I run inside and hit the buttons
>as the doors are beginning to close I see the guy who called it trying to run in with leaper aggro
>he calls me a piece of shit fucking asshole and the last thing I see is the leaper flying towards him as the door slams in his face
lmao

I want to raid my raider if you know what I mean

>>545237884
I want to extract camp your raider.

>>545237396
I'd kill for one like Caustic's beatdown finisher, instead of one dinky punch you just pummel the ever-loving shit out of them.

>>545236515
>>545237126
Neat, I'll start bringing one of those into my solos. I've also gotten unstuck once by throwing a grenade at my feet, the throwing action unstuck me and I had to dodge the blast

>>545237884
he looks like he gets killed by free kit players

the hotwheel is such utter dogshit, especially since you have to do an animation and visibly equip items
quick use items should be on 3/4/5/6, not just the fucking useless garbage melee weapon on 3

Is there a list of items that can be sold without needing to worry about using them for upgrades or crafting? I feel that list would be rather small.

>>545238220
yes

My god the guns look and feel so shit in this game. Just look at the Kettle gun. What the fuck is that abomination?

>>545222105
Or, just zip to the top with the zip lines on the map??

>why do the basic junk guns look bad
wow i dunno man

Yeah, heh. I'm just that kind of guy

>>545238496
>>545238621
almost like they purposely decided to make fake ugly nonsensical guns instead of real designs

>>545238496
>look
Yeah I'm not a fan of the makeshift junk look either
>feel
Hard disagree, they feel hard hitting, sound loud without actually being too loud, the smoke effects are great, the distant cracks are fantastic, they're unwieldy enough to be interesting and force you to pace yourself, etc.

>>545238621
Even the rare and epic ones are junk guns though. What are you on about?

>>545238220
Don't forget you get unlimited free basic materials from your chicken and can use the refiner to combine things into other components, so don't worry too much about selling/recycling those since they're relatively easy to reobtain.

All consumables, everything that says "may be worth a few coins", anything rusted or broken, and all arc parts other than alloys can be recycled with zero worries.

So what’s the lore behind the robots? Are the rich people in space sending them?

>>545238496
Yea I'm not a fan of the gunplay. It's not awful but it's not great either. Just sucks it brings down the rest of the game for me.

damn this general is kinda dead

>>545239083

Dear god I hope none of them had one and they all fucking died there trying to crawl there way out

>>545238520
The launch tower event* locks the ziplines, you can't get them unless you find a fuel cell. With this you could skip searching for it and go right up.

>>545239189
I was playing with a random squad and some guy started begging us not to kill him and but my teammates didnt care and killed him and then as we were finishing him he was role playing dying calling us bastards

On a scale of 1-10 how hard is it to

Well I guess at least you have friends, that's more than some here.

If people knew how to put utility to its fullest potential, they would nerf these items. Certain combinations are insane

>>545238919
There was going to be an alien invasion, so humanity spec'd hard into space travel to evacuate the planet and stay cryofrozen in the oort cloud, with some innawoods boogalos instead building bunkers planetside for a last stand. The aliens ended up never showing up, but the billions in orbit don't know that. The ARC is humanity's AI auto-adapting army they sent back to earth to reclaim the planet and check if it's still habitable, they're all programmed to kill on sight and have no idea they're actually fighting humans or that anyone is even alive on the planet.

>>545239494
3. Just learn to avoid flying drones to get to the entrance to underground (preferably west side)
From there it depends on how many sweats loaded into your game but BG is so big it’s easy to not run into people if you stop look and listen

Where do I find isolated Hornets

>>545239898
where does the finals take place in all of this, are the rest of the humans chillin in cryosleep VR

>>545239898
Lmfao is this real?

>>545239898
So ARC are the good guys and raiders are hindering the rebuild, got it

>>545240156
It's implied the aliens never showed up because they chased and killed the defenseless spaceships instead after they launched all their arc to earth, and that the arc are serving masters they don't know are already long-dead with the ayys on their way to earth to clean up shop any day now. Also some hints towards time travel being involved at the very end.

>>545240156
>humans are actually... le bad

>>545240338
I will side with ayys or robots any chance I get

Do headshots count while shields are active?

Do gas grenades even do anything?

please... i need p2w stash slots NOW

Gotta say, I'm not really enjoying the game. I thought I might because I'm a lifelong fan of Hunt Showdown, but there's a couple things in this format of extraction that's just irksome. It's well made and objectively good, but not for me I guess.

I haven't had this much fun in a game in a long time bros
I don't know what it is, the enemies physics and tactile feel of the combat, all the organic interactions with players, the atmosphere of each raid ???
I thought I was going to hate this game

>>545240825

Too hard

>>545241001
I'll trade mine for a silencer bp

How are people even 'trading' can you do it on the menus in a party or do you have to truce in game then extract?

>>545241150
Were you shooting the body instead of focusing 2 of the rotors?

>>545241106
true, but it’s free at least.
they need to add finishing moves and pickaxes skins. And beards

This part, but it also works if you're in a party together.
Don't even need to extract, just put it in the safe pocket and kill yourself.

55 kills seems kinda ass for 21 hours

any apex general chuds in here? this is the closest we are getting to peak apex

>>545242491
maybe for 21 hours, but 20 hours a 47 minutes and 59 seconds? yeah im thinking im going pro

>>545238013
They absolutely should adopt this style of execution.
Camera angle change for greater impact, etc.
If I recall correctly, Apex would let you cancel these too if shit hit the fan, so I see no reason why they couldn't do that here too.

The current punch is just so weak, and I think the idea of shooting a raider, robbing them blind of anything they might use or need to survive on the surface, and expecting them to some how get back to Speranza is a bit weird, and probably the only real "weak point" of the games lore. I don't know why they don't just say you died and leave it at that. But that its only "canon" that you never died in a raid.
>>545235131
I have no idea how you saw this guy in the smoke. I'll chalk it up to webm quality, but that was pretty crazy. I'd be pissed if I was him. I also feel bad utterly deleting someone from so far away like that sometimes.

I just don't think casuals will appreciate losing their loot/gear to bullshit encounters will players over and over, even if the game is technically fairly casual friendly and it isn't THAT hard to find new gear. It's just not a good feeling in general and really feels like time wasted. Despite all the hubbub about the emergent encounters, I find 90% of people are still just the shoot-on-sight kinds, with the game itself providing little incentive to opt for peaceful encounters with players

>>545242507
I've heard that a lot
Does the combat really feel like a 3rd person slower apex?

>>545242210
Probably makes it very easy to exploit third party camera in egregious ways. Thats my main assumption, cause I too would have liked to go prone.
But I can see why they didn't with how vertical the game gets.

>>545241298
Oh right in a party and safe pocket, duh

This game is objectively really well-made and they nailed the atmosphere but unfortunately it cements to me that third person shooters are inherently soulless. Knowing exactly when someone is about to push takes so much enjoyment out of pvp.

>>545243539
2 Wolfpacks per should be enough, maybe overkill even

Is there any idea what that was? Did they hack a mech? Did they microwave it? Was it arc on arc violence? Was it the androids or another group of people?

Always KoS. Sea of Thieves is the result of letting carebears get complacent. You do not want that with this game.

You're supposed to talk to them to lull them into a false sense of security, then kill them for their loot like a true psychopath.

>>545245039

I guess I'll be doing loot runs at night from now on.
Found in a blue recycling bin

Locked rooms at night are probably nuts too.

>>545231748
I think it's yellow only because it has a key door

>>545245048
Oh yeah, and all the stuff will be in pristine condition, no "broken" items.

>>545245178
Locked rooms at night are insane. Had Dam Control Tower all to myself on one and walked out with 2 Renegades, a Tempest, a Vulcano, and a Wolfpack grenade.

>>545245178
>Locked rooms at night are probably nuts too.
They definitely can be. I'm surprised you can craft Wolfpacks, but guess I shouldn't be.

>night raid with free kit
>find this in a random drawer in some small building I spawned in

what the fuck

>>545245525
Just rat with a key in your safe pocket, zero risk

my biggest fear is finding an anvil blueprint on a free loot run and getting killed by some asshole when extracting

>got out with an Osprey BP
Wow, an actual sniper rifle. Is that scope usable? Curious to see how well actual snipers hold up to stuff like the Ferro.

>>545245781

if you're going to be the one to call the elevator, if you hear ANYBODY approaching, knock them down before you do anything else. They can still extract even while down, and you don't risk losing your shit at the 11th hour because you were an uwu fwenwy DONT SHOOT faggot

How many Ferro 1 shots does it realistically take to down a rocketeer?

why is bluegate like pure pvp (solo)? or is that just where the game is headed

>>545246672
99% sure the spawns are bugged on it, I've had multiple games in a row where I spawn next to 2+ other players who also just spawned in. I can't imagine forcing players into a 4-way FFA five seconds into every match is intentional.

>>545246616
people like you dont have the iq to understand how your individual actions have repercussions because it's a little too indirect. ie youre nigger brained, not intelligent

>>545244643
nah fuck off, you want implicit pvp get some friends and play squads, solos are for looting and chungus reddit extracts

>>545246662
a lot, at least 2 stacks, you can maybe finesse hitting the rotors from directly beneath it so you don't have to destroy the armor, but that's hard

>>545246761
i just lost 2 kits from getting FOURTH-partied. im going to need to go full solid snake for the first 10 min or something

>have raider damage missions
>some guy at extract says "don't shoot" and drops me a music box
Stop making it so hard

>>545246793
i already said im a rat nigger, i dont give a fuck. its a pvp game, go play a singleplayer pve game if you dont want to get killed

devilish

>>545246761
>>545246919
with how the tight and close the player spawns are it's incredibly likely you'll run into 1 or 2 people and even more depending on where you're running to
blue gate is especially bad with this because it's insanely fucking open
sometimes ill personally wait like a minute or so before running out of spawn to avoid shitty early engagements like this

I haven't run into the double player spawn shit before though

>>545247398

He probably thought you were tickling him.

there are enough pvp animals out there that i can put them down (third party) without feeling like a nig myself

not 2 bad

>shit internet disconnects for a few seconds

I feel like they should temporarily take you out of the raid if they give you the option to reconnect, and if you don't just insta kill the player

>>545246836
You already have Fallout76 for your epic reddit PvE with randoms experience.

Just found Lance's mixtape while doing one of his quests, worth 10k. Do I just sell it or do I need it for something later on?

if your vision is that bad, you're going to have a bad time playing this game.

bros i'm scared of night raid in solos... do i do it?

>>545232536
you can respec out of it with extensive effort into the expedition tree.

are woman ring finger smaller than index? I never nooticed

>"DON'T SHOOT!" from behind

Fine by me

>>545252445
it wasnt good, but it wasnt the worst. they really wanted to pvp.
i used my lure to fuck the other squad and landed like 8 anvil shots and got all 3 kills on the first party, and this little shit still looted up first. but then we got jumped by 2 more squads and he died and we left him.

too many freekit shitters, why would oyu even want to pvp at the start?

>>545253267
do it, they're comfy

>>545253143
are trannie haters all closeted or what

buried city is where all the cool stuff happens
spaceport is all kos sniping niggers and betrayal if pretending otherwise
dam is noobs and questing, tryharding on night
blue gate is like buried city but more open

What are the best things to loot as a brand new player? I just keep finding what seems like junk

>>545254520
i got my taste of sniperniggers on spaceport and it was no joke. it's not usually a problem on solo, though
blue gate has been turbo pvp though

>>545254548
track your needed materials for workshop upgrades and you'll get a little eye icon on everything that you need

>>545254548
there's really too much, you're going to have to feel it out; but...
whatever you need to level your workbenches. of the basic materials metal seems to be the biggest bottleneck, then rubber (if you have to choose what to keep) though if you're good about collecting and breaking down arc alloy its not as bad

>have to spend 20+ hours getting the 400 raider tokens from the pass
>server outage for 1 hour yesterday and people get 500 tokens if they logged on just cause
I would be absolutely fuming if I missed out on that

is the toro not a 2htk (at least on light)?

usually my runs are around 10k-30k in value so seeing this at the end was a surprise

>>545255089
nice run, where was this? buried?
the light mag can be bought for ~2k or crafted for basically nothing; it makes a pretty big dif for the stitcher

>>545255237
>nice run, where was this? buried?
ran through the hospital on buried city for whatever reason that place has an insane amount of trinkets in the lockers and drawers

>>545255395
Can confirm, ran through there several times looking for cracked bioscanners and the lockers were packed with raw value.

Which Anvil is the most cost effective from Anvil I to III

not being aggressor is anxiety inducing, gotta put so much trust in people, hard thing to do in EU with so many Russian players

sidenote: is there any point in not using free loadouts when you're a new player? except for the prison pocket slot it doesn't seem worth it, no skill points or gear so likely to get owned in PvP, at what level should i stop being a pussy and use my own loadouts? when i can comfortably run ferro/stitcher loadouts with medium shields?

>>545255518
i'm curious about how crazy the loot there is at night but i'm too much of a pussy to do night runs lol

>>545255713
IV

>>545255732
run nonfree whenever you can, the weight, slots and freeslot are too important. just building or buying a ferro 1 and stitcher/kettle is nearly free anyway

>>545255713
the upgrades are significant, but ive been fucked up by a few anvil 2s, so that's what i do if im running light. it feels fine

you FOOLS you're all gonna cry when the hidden 7th expedition stage requires 1000 bettina bps

>>545255906
i guess you're right, if i found an anvil blueprint and got killed on a free loadout i'd probably /wrists

>>545255795
The main thing you gotta worry about is more ARC (avoidable if you're smart about your pathing) and a bit higher potential for PVP (bring a stitcher, it's cheap and hospital's a bunch of tight corners where it'll dominate if your peeking game is on point). Chances are you might not even get into a fight though with how friendly solo tends to be, just gotta remember to speak up if anyone announces themselves.

>>545255395
lockers and drawers are goated
I don't know what the fuck is the point of breaching containers
>loud
>long animation
>makes you pull out the melee weapon
>all for worse loot

the ferro -> burletta swap is crazy fast. was not aware
my game isnt that dark, it was just the compression or something

>>545256275
breaching is at least valuable in tech areas

wew, guess the normies left already. It's all kosm today

Rats should be limited to the hairpin.

>>545256759
what servers and what areas do you guys who say it's all kos queue into? on the na server in the normal areas everyone's just as friendly as day 1 in solos

>>545256819
OCE, but it matches into Asia sometimes too

>>545256759
i started playing today on EU and people seem pretty ratty, about 50/50 so far whether aggressive or not, and haven't met any talkers yet. might become a kos-tard myself to have the upper hand.

I just got a surveyor vault from a courier

>>545256594
I mean, you're basically whipping out a sidearm, yeah it'll be faster. Wondering if the anvil gets that switch speed too, now that I think about it, I'll have to test in the shooting range later.

>arc surveyor quest
God I hate this

i know people are probably fed up with Tarkov comparisons, but it would be cool if we could walk around inside our "base" and have some progressive decoration to view in there

or even more ambitious, have Speranza be a instance zoned social multiplayer hub

>>545257007
Pretty sure couriers can drop just about everything up to blue rarity ARC loot, even the unique stuff that can only be found on certain ones?

>>545257216
Need to kill one, right? It's kind of overkill but if you have a wolfpack, it's pretty much a guaranteed instakill. You can just keep it in your safe pocket until you spot one.

The Bettina BP has to be bugged right? Or just has incorrect rarity values or something? I have found so many of them and its actually starting to get annoying. I cant fucking even make it yet.

>>545256865
>made that comment about everyone being friendly
>met a kos faggot in a run just now but managed to run away from him
i wanna say that 90% of the runs end up with friendly people but there's still a chance of some autistic counter-strike retard wanting to gun you down but at least i got this blueprint which iirc people are saying is really good?

I've been trying to get some lemons and apricots from the buried ctiy but it's a warzone there. Not only are there millions of arcs patrolling the garden for some reason, even if I manage to find some fruit, everyone here seems to be shooting on sight. So far everyone has been friendly so it's a little weird, but I guess I'll have to start shooting at everyone at this area at this point.

>>545250230
Hairpin and no shield

>>545257692
Definitely, everyone's experiencing it.

>>545257735
>>545256767

>>545257657
>have Speranza be a instance zoned social multiplayer hub
That would be really cool. The game is successful enough that I think the devs could do it if they wanted to and are based enough. I hope they do.

I'm going fucking insane

>>545257657
>>545257872
>have Speranza be a instance zoned social multiplayer hub
What? So you degenerates could ERP?

>got a magnum blue print
>killed a guy in two shots
Is the magnum retard strong

>>545258034
It's literally a Ferro with a 6 round mag and faster fire rate, fuck yeah it's strong as shit.

The cock brings you resources relative to your raid length, I don't actually know what the ugprades do but I've noticed that I get more seeds compared to the other mats at level 5.

>>545250590
I'm so fucking jelly man I haven't gotten a single epic bp for the augments. Shit's way too rare.

>>545258198
You also get more if you die

>>545257992
You dont have to be shy anon
you can participate too if you want :)

>somehow keep finding one raider stash after another on an ARC graveyard Dam event for some reason
>walk out with 4 medium shields
Ok

neat

If you’re emoting “don’t shoot!” the moment you hear footsteps in the distance instead of laying low, you get the KOS treatment.

Is it me or are hostilities rising? I suppose once people have grinded their quests and benches there's not much else to do besides pvp.

>>545257992
>What? So you degenerates could ERP?
i'm sure some degens would do that, but with how people run like 5 different char presets even the most die hard gooners would probably get bored quickly

how the FUCK do i upgrade my gunsmith station

FFXIV is free.

I've seen the bots ignore noobs and go full aggro on other players.

I've seen bots go down in one hit for some players but tank multiple shots for other players.

There's some bullshit going on here.

>>545259054
Sunday was jolly cooperation everywhere
Monday was potshotratkos and nothing elese
tuesday will probably be deathmatch again

>solo player
>still dying to arcs hovering around extract points
i'm running free loadouts until i figure this shit out, annoying looting like a rat all round and avoiding pvp only to get shit on by clankers

>>545259183
>I've seen bots go down in one hit for some players but tank multiple shots for other players.
probably just down to people who knows each arcs weak points and those who don't

>sneak up behind someone
>wait until I'm really close
>announce myself by telling them I'm friendly
>watch them have a little heart attack as they spin around and spam don't shoot
This is fun. One day they're going to turn around and blast me though

>>545258974
i hope you understand the meaning of 'dont shoot' when i come from behind w/ my gat out

Do the devs really use machine learning AI shit to make the clankers smarter over time or did the tiktok comments lie to me?

>>545259591
it's not some scifi evolution, but it's something

9/10 times if you shout don't shoot and the other person doesn't say anything back it's a faggot that wants to kill you

>>545259591
your first mistake was using tiktok but no
the ai is pretty good though

>>545259591
No. The Clanker AI is basically if it loses a leg or a rotor it tries to compensate and stay airborne/upright.

>>545259591
no, or else they'd be doing things like actively setting ambushes for players at hotspots, or waiting until players finish gunfights to 3rd party the survivors

>>545245048
Man I always thought, that after I break one open, that all hatches share the same loot. Thank you for letting me know.

Where the fuck do I farm mushrooms? I can't find shit in hydroponics on the dam map.

>your first mistake was using tiktok
I like to get dinner recipes from it

really glad peanut saved this game

>>545259219
Sometimes it's better to get knocked down by ARCs around extract but still extract

>>545259183
Hullcracker oneshots all the flying shit. If you also shoot two back rotors they will crash down and most of the singles hot weapons break the rotors in one hit.

>>545259840

Sometimes there's just nothing you can do about it

had a fun few days but it's mostly what i expected it to be now. people just sitting in corners peeking third person with high damage single shot weapons

Quests that require wires to fix a box don't consume the wires. I wonder if they're even necessary to bring at all

i lost two hullbreakers today...i can't even buy another one from the vendor...i just wanted to kill some bombadiers...

>>545260334
>>545260683
But where do they actually spawn? I heard around the bases of trees in the swamp but I have yet to see one.

>>545260884
The map on the OP has reported spawn points. They don't always spawn at those locations but those are the areas you want to check

>>545260845
Throw two wolfpacks instead. Hullbreaker is ass.

>>545261512
i sold all of the ones I got though missions without knowing how good they were and don't have a recicipe

>>545260884
With Lush Bloom map mod they spawn in baskets (container)

>>545260821
Yes
t. didnt bring them

Do weapons refill their durability when upgraded

>>545261765
No. Repair first, then upgrade.

im addicted

>>545262080
so its just like a spray on bandage that can be used whenever

>>545260845
flame grenades are great you only need 3

>>545262572
and it can be repaired

it seems i too must KOS, that's just how this goes i guess

>>545262923
i know flame nades are great against leapers, are they as efficient on bombardiers?

When do I "get" the game? So far it's just been
>spawn in
>go to a looting zone
>hear fights, but see no one
>hear robots, but avoid them
>loot some worthless crap that I don't even know the purpose of
>either extract or get 2 tapped by a player i couldn't even see
>rinse repeat
I have all the worktables, but now I'm wondering where I get blueprints, what I should be crafting, which table I need to upgrade first, what can I sell without thinking about it, and why can't I find any players?

>trigger nade resistant to all types of explosives
>even resistant to other trigger nades

i don't have a flame grenade recipe fuck

>>545263146
you don't get it

>>545263146
you have to go to high loot areas to find players. you need to use a microphone to team up. most players don't want to be seen.

>>545263257
thx 4 the testing

>>545263659
Speaking of testing, I was trying to verify that talent of "You regen stamina as if you're standing still while walking"
I think the normal "jog" is not what they mean, but you have to manually toggle on the walk to get the benefit
I'm wondering if you cover more ground by toggling walk, or if the distance you lose by not jogging is offset by the stamina gain.

I tried testing it by running around on Dam near the apartments since it's nice and flat, but some retard hit me with a Farro before I could finish my tests.

>need 1 (one) more olive or the fucking chicken is NOT satisfied
Blasted bird...

Love/hate relationship with this game so far.

Dying to an ARC that locked in on you from a mile away, right at an extraction point while waiting for the hatch to open, and then getting finished off by a hiding NPC raider is one of the worst feelings I've ever experienced in vidya games. Pure rage inducing

>>545263257
>>545263659
>resistant to virtually everything
>even blaze grenade or impacts
EXCEPT flame spray for some odd reason..

>>545263917
yea i believe that's the case... it might make sense w/ controller when you can tilt the stick (they might be able to walk a bit faster before triggering jog), but it's worthless on pc

>>545264036
>locked in on you from a mile away
Hide in a building and they go away after a while

>>545263998

but I had 5 hours on it so it might not go thu
