Ya fucked up. Also peak or whatever

>>719809537My hands cramping from so much peaking. I might set up a 10 man lobby and just not play.
i have yet to encounter mr scoutmaster
>>719810027The only time I've encountered him is when I intentionally threw away a solo climb to get the achievement since one of the statues game me a Scoutmaster's Bugle. It was worth it to not need to do it in multiplayer.
>>719809180Might host later! I'm two badges away from fully complete my hash, one of them being getting on a fight with the scoutmaster, right now I'm busy.Have fun anons
I'm hosting a Scoutmaster rampage lobby, gimme a sec to just get it setup and make sure it works
>>719810206lucky as fuck, it has a ridiculous chance to spawn solo
>>719810448What the fuck is a 'scoutmaster's rampage lobby'?
>>719809846>the marshmallow double dip stare
>>719809846I'd let them eat me.
>>719809846yes please, i need to peaaak!
I thankfully eventually had a lobby with buddies where I could get scout mastered. I went to up solo while they waited around to get hungry for the funny teeth achievement. I did most of my achievements in offline runs but I've yet to see the scoutmaster bringer.
>>719810540Well, its when we - Wait, whats that noise?OH MY GO-
>>719811165That seems cool. I would like to do one regular run of the new seed, before we, err, invite our friend there.

somehow i got blasted out of the map but then brought back in at the last minute. forgive me purple guy
my power went out mid rope cannon use

>>719817113holy hell i'm so glad you caught that. i haven't been to alpine too many times so i had no idea what i was looking at until it was too late.
>>719812069sry had to quit right before the kiln
peak bros... it's over... silksong killed us...
>>719820215We wait it out, like true scouts.
Lobby doko?
gimme 4 scouts to draw them together >>719820215im sure for the next two weeks its gonna be hard to keep a thread steady, silksong just released and other coop games got pretty big updates in the same day, it will get better once the dust settles or if AggroFall decides to drop the next biome soon
Excellent work everybody.

>>719829170peaking 3/4but if you join, you'll have to wait 'til we finish the tropics
>beach starts me out with 2 balloon bunches immediately>in the two freebie plane luggages immediate>think that'll be handy to blow past jungle/alpine/kiln in an emergency >peak with itFucking A5 solo beaten at last though, damn. Blowing 2 slots on balloons is kind of a burden, especially with this Ascent tier already needing you to hold the lantern and flare as well, but man does it feel nice having 0 weight debuff.
>>719829426>1:11:59good time too. Surprises me given how often I just waited out the cold or even waited out the day so I could wait out the cold.
>>719829426Honestly, I think keeping a balloon bundle in your bag for the negative weight is well worth it. It's basically a permanent stamina buff.
>>719830780>Honestly, I think keeping a balloon bundle in your bag for the negative weight is well worth it. It's basically a permanent stamina buff.i didnt even realize ballons did this until now

I'll do a scoutmaster lobby tomorrow, I was testing it out today, seems very fun ngl
>>719827596Probably not since the route you take on Tenderfoot might not work on Ascent 7
>>719834541sorry brah, it's a USB microphone
>>719834983>USB microphoneIf it's a dynamic/condenser mic then it should be loud enough, the fidelity was high, but the volume was lowcheck your recording/input volume breh
>>719834637Best one I got, although it's 3 days old. Ignore Turpis's ass
>>719835236Works, cheers broski
>>719827596update: beat tenderfoot and peakthere's this area about 20% of the way up the kiln that would be a free way up if not for about four magma rocks crowding the place. on tenderfoot i think i used a lollipop and had to use all of the infinite stamina timer + my green bar and some reserve to make it, but it turns out you don't need that because there's a complicated although energy-efficient path upwards that is very well hidden among the rocks.i also needed to use a chain launcher on tenderfoot about 80% of the way up. i didnt find one on this peak run but i didn't need it because i found another way up that just needed a rope cannon and energy drink. chain launchers are rarer than the blood of christ so being able to win without one is great news.other thoughts:>tropics and alpine are a bit fucky but hopefully i can refine pathing>the capybaras in the alpine are RIGHT THERE after the line of luggage on the floor to the right>shore has two sets of good luggages right at the start on some higher altitude ground, but it takes a while to reach them so im not very incentivized>>719827596that is definitely a factor although the reduced stamina consumption is only on the first run out of nine. however im constantly thinking about every climb and whether or not i can make it with the ascent 6 debuff, maybe changing routes if a climb i just did would absolutely not make it later. ascents 1-4 are not that bad and would absolutely allow me to iron out all the kinks.

I got to the top of the tropics for the first time, and I got to climb to the top of a really big tree! This was also my first time playing multiplayer in peak. def alot more fun with others. had a bad jump in the alpines and fell to my death, thats what I get for trying to save my marshmallow for too long.
>>719809180Bump
Which way up Alpine I keep getting fucked on Asc 7
>>719852526Stick to the right side of the flat area to get a FUCK TON of luggage until you get to the Capybaras then climb up the left side of the mountain.You will need a Soda to get up to a ledge with a lave stream near it and even afterwards there are nasty stamina draining climbs afterwards. It's a nasty climb but I just finished it on Ascent 7If you want I can snap a pic of the map and draw up a diagram for you

>>719853772I started to like it, honestly. The 'language' of lighter chirps and more agitated ones for different scenarios is funny.I wonder what program he uses to do it.

>>719869731Take your time, figure out how to identify the best paths, learn the limits of your stamina and get used to how weight and other detriments can limit your options
>>719869731The number 1 killer in this game is stubbornness. If you don't think you can make it to a ledge with your current stamina, use a tool or go back down and look for another route.
>>719869961Sorry, I should probably go and do some chores instead of playing Peak 24/7 lmaosee you later cowboy
>>719869731It's all about routing. 9 times out of 10, there's always gonna be an easy path that doesn't need extra stamina or items. Of course, learning extra tech can open up a lot of options (rope boosting, double grab lunging, etc.), you'll be fine if you can identify good routes and know when to bail on a climb if it doesn't look good.

>>719902546Don't have time to join a second one. Thanks for the host tho.
>>719902546There is one more mod that may help if this doesn't work https://thunderstore.io/c/peak/p/SpaceRats/SeekerScoutmaster/
Every single day I play and say "This might be the most fucked [x] I've seen yet" the game takes it as a challenge to spawn the most horrendously generated map the next day.I cant believe this seed was this much of a challenge even on ascent 1, hell it might have been one of the hardest ones yet
Welp, guess im not opening the game today if any of these posts are anything to take from.
>>719902953Is the game really randomly generated though? I thought there were like 14 mountains it cycles around
>>719903127I think it's randomly generated to an extent but I'd assume the islands go through some form of QA that makes sure it isn't actually impossible to traverse, no matter how difficult, before being shipped into the rotation
is the seed today really that bad? i wanna play and see it for myself now
We just bullied Myers for a day straight lmao
>fraudmaster myers
>>719903437Doesn't have his CQC badge. He's forgotten the basics.
>>719903292>>719903127Nope. It's all effectively completely random
>>719903335tropics and mesa are pure torture today
That was pretty fun. Mod definitely needs some balancing. Half the group ran ahead while the other half stun-locked the Scoutmaster for an entire in-game day.
>>719904063Giving bonk powers to every item was a mistake xdNext time I'll make it so only "heavy" items can bonk, and make a bigger cooldown for Myers so you can't stunlock him

>>719904165i didnt like it anywaysome guy can just sit at the bottom while everyone else climbs as normal
>>719904431https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymNFyxvIdaM
>>719904431>cant catch me, I'm in nutty putty cave!lmao. But yeah, ultimately it just means the same people who always make it still make it and the people who try new paths or are a bit slower going just get caught eventually and then either accept it and kys themselves or survive by fighting him and also not making any more mountain progress. Kinda snowbally against slow players. Maybe if there were multiple it might be better? Or if he spawned at the top and tried to defend the campfire so everyone has to surge passed all at once
uh oh
>>719905039oh shit everyone crashingcomplete bloodbath
Guess Myers had enough and just killed the entire server, RIP boysIt was an interesting experiment at least
>>719904939It'd be better if he spawned by a random person and terrorized them for a bit before despawning and targeting someone else.
womp womp
lobby crash?
extinction event
I really enjoyed the sheer panic once everyone realized that Myers was immediately beelining for the group
Alright everyone, just a nice normal lobby with no evil Scoutmaster to hurt usI'll make some changes and maybe try again on weekendsteam://joinlobby/3527290/109775243001905669/76561197971840690

I wanna play with you all again but there's no lobbies by the time I get done waging
we totally did ascent 7 guys
>>719908670the result:yes you can go into the lava with golden bing bong and float all the way to the top, as long as you aim all the way up the whole time to avoid dipping them into the lava. i floated up and then went back down to see if you could dip and destroy even if they are in your hands and the answer is yes, so just aim up the whole way.the bad part is this is REALLY boring; you are skipping the most exciting part of the game this way, and if you are able to carry a weight handicap up the mesa then you should have no problem beating the kiln unless you have literally no food or tools, but if that was the case how did you make it up the mesa to begin with?in any case, the lava floats almost to the top, where the last very easy rocks are plentiful, so you should be able to hold S until you find an incline somewhere and climb up from there. you probably don't even need a pandora's lunchbox, but it could be handy to pack one with you in your hotbar in case something goes wrong.if you do this in multiplayer you also risk everyone starving to death waiting for your fat ass to reach the top, but it might be worth it if everyone has a lot of food and the guy carrying the idol is too shit at the game to make it up without dying.

>>719942384Cold nights is such a shit ass mechanic, and I earnestly think it should be the very last difficulty modifier because of how obnoxious it really is.

>>719942771Sticking together doesn't help at all?t.ascentlet
>>719942825Huddling together does help, the issue is that stopping to huddle costs you time and hunger, which can fuck you over
>>719942818So just a regular /v/ lobby?
>>719942825It does, but it drastically lessens the pace which becomes a problem of food, especially for those really tricky climbing sections that need you to lunge over. cold can easily fuck over an entire section with its creeping bar drain or just brick the pace entirely.

steam://joinlobby/3527290/109775243046243025/765611980468169614-player vanillaAny difficulty, fun mandatory
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KF32DRg9opA
>>719942384Yeah, Ascent 5 can be manageable in some cases depending on the seed and what loot is generated, but Ascent 6 is total stress from the tropics onwards.They also turn this very friendly game into a cutthroat FFA the further you progress into the levels. It's actually psychologically interesting how most players change their behaviour gradually as the resources dwindle.I don't know if I would want to do Asc5+ most of the time, but on the occasion, yes, just because I do like the challenge. Both mechanical and moral.Speaking of Asciies, I love Ascent 4. Doesn't really change the difficulty much, if at all, if the carrier is decent, but can make for a lot of social interaction and cause some very interesting moments.
I always take Bing Bong to the PeakNo matter what
>>719946271I just love how bringing Bing Bong is widely accepted as mandatory, its like bringing the egg in Helldivers or pointing gold in Deep Rock GalacticWhat is his plot tho? Dude has an ancient icon of himself
>>719946217ascent 4 has the added challenge of less stamina to go around overall, plus hunger troubles to witness cannibalism and desperation more often.the flare modifier might not have impact all of the time but when everyone is at the caldera temple with no flare to be seen, the tone of the game changes in an instant.ascent 5 and above are too fucked up i think for the sorta casual and chill atmosphere /v/ lobbies are trying to go for. ascent 6 in particular is horrifying because every small insignificant stepping stone now becomes a horrifying climb of uncertainty and looming death.then ascent 7 is not friendly for our large games at all. people come here to play; not to sit and watch, which is what 90% of people will be doing since the death rate from hunger is so high. it could be interesting to begin with a 20-man crew and see what happens, but in that circumstance i would just want the permadeath modifier with none of the stuff below it. could be a fun game mode if it wasn't for horrible desyncing and fps problems preventing it.
>>719946608>pointing gold in Deep Rock GalacticIt's more like carrying Doretta back to the drop pod.>What is his plot tho? Dude has an ancient icon of himselfThis is my theory >>719858328I believe Myres is still "alive" because he somehow became its avatar (green-ish skin and weird elongated limbs). In a future update we'll be able to use the strange gem to save him.
>>719809180i'm not a peakfag but i randomly noticed this in the catalog and>2 days oldi kneel
>>719947342Samoan bro?
>>719947342Gotta keep peak alive on /v/.Where else would anons host lobbies? /vm/?
>>719946661There were a couple of Ascent 7 attempts in these threads and they went as well as you'd expect. If I recall, there was one 10+ man lobby attempt and only 4 of them made it out of the Shores. It got to Mesa before it all went downhill from food and climbing mistakes.
>>719947342>>719947261>In a future update we'll be able to use the strange gem to save him.im gonna lose it if the way to save him is by knocking him to his senses throwing a big glowing rock to his face like we have been doing yesterday
>>719947342>>719947882woops wrong reply but yeah its surprising it managed to stay alive after the initial silksong craze, big respect to the guys here, been nothing but fun in the lobbies itt
>>719946217Ascent 5 fucks me over so badly because I usually tend to split off from the pack because I like calling out other paths, but normally people don't follow, then die to frost because no matter how many times it happens, I always forget about cold nights.
Thanks for the fun game fellas, shame the cannon wasn't big enough to get us back to the airport
>>719947658I hate that /vm/ is dead as fuckI hate that /vg/ is filled with thread schizos and attention whores
>>719947658/vg/ I would imagine, but peak can only be kept alive on /v/ for so long. My guess would be a few more week max with a return when new updates are dropped.
>>719948149What the fuck happened?
>>719948539We lost our flare in Caldera and didn't find one in the Klin. So our bright idea was to set down a canon, and launch ourselves off The Peak™ in hopes of making it back to the airport. As you can see from the graph it didn't work out for us.
>>719948490it can be done like the party/v/an and drawthreads too, if when they get too slow to keep up til next updates we can have days to bake breads and play but til then lets have fun, these threads have been nothing but awesome, never thought such little game would give so much joy when i got it
>>719948454/vm/ is also full of thread schizos and attention whores, they dominate the dead threads
>>719949020Not nearly as much as /vg/Their mental illness doesn't even compare
You guys actually use this or throw it right away? It almost threw my run if it wasn't because I had a cure-all
>>719949104Too much risk for barely any rewardIt's a self-griefing item, like the scoutmaster bugle
>>719949104It's a clutch tool in very specific circumstances, but you're rolling the dice with it
>>719948034Same. I like to spot paths and scout them, and I try to do it quickly, but there are times when you can't tell if a path will be good, until you go too far. Cold nights straight up exist to punish straying, and are more effective at it than the scoutmaster.Now don't tell this to anyone else, for they have weak hearts, but I was thinking; since you only need one other scout to survive the night, you could break another scout's legs so they pass out. Then you could simply carry them on your back, and not only do you survive the night, but you can keep moving, instead of sitting in a crouch pile, wasting time. This does cost you a backpack, but I often run packless anyways.
>>719949104I'd only use it if I have literally nothing else and I'm about to die. If you're about to die from falling or hunger it can actually save your life by turning those afflictions into milder ones like poison and sleep.
>>719949104I generally found it pretty okay, but you obviously use it only if you're stacked with bad afflictions.What's the worst thing it can do, anyway?
>>719949104Its op in Caldera, you can just sprint across the lava and spam it when you're about to burn to death. Bonus points if it gives you ice
>>719948949>if when they get too slow to keep up til next updates we can have days to bake breads and playI can confirm that this can extend the life of a thread. It worked perfectly for Slay the Princess when we started to only bake breads on Saturday.
>>719949104I haven't used it yet so I don't know what it does, I figured it was a full heal you could use in a pinch
I don't know how I seem to enjoy this game so much more than other "friendslop" games. Maybe due to the theme? Being almost "comfy" while also having a skill ceiling to it?Games like Lethal Company and Repo are so fucking boring to me, especially the first which feels like a menial labor job simulator with cheap jumpscares being the selling point.What makes Peak special?
>>719950627genuinely deep gameplay experience with a lot of nuance to discover and exploit, plus a new island that resets every day, sharing the experience not just with friends but everyone across the world.also, having a clear and defined goal instead of going endless until everyone dies helps a lot.its probably the first friendslop game that is not actually friendslop and is very enjoyable even in solo play.

>>719951142Man you are able to do these fast, great work!
>>719950627Peak from a storytelling standpoint, is classical media, "Man Vs Nature." It depicts the merciless threat of nature, the necessity of teamwork, and perseverance through hardship. You play the role of a plucky scout in a movie-length journey to the top of a mountain. Comparatively Lethal and the like are very Post-modern. It's all pretty cynical as the games heavily depict corrupt corporate entities, post-apocalyptic scenarios, and eventual failure. You play the role of a hopeless cog in a nightmare machine that will inevitably consume you without remorse.The latter is very popular right now but the former has universal appeal, which sometimes that's all you really need.
>>719953040What am I looking at here? They reached the peak and signaled the flare, but something else is happeningSupernova?
>>719953224i think it's just a stylised sunset
>>719953289Oh. I thought it was a red supergiants, similar to the dying sun in Outer Wilds
>>719953224Yeah, that's what happens on ascent 69. If you don't make it the peak in 22 minutes the sun turns into a red giant.
>>719953416what new ascents should they add? should they even add any ascents at all?
>>719953416Game already has a Scout Launcher, its already a outer wilds tie in
>>719953224They were too late, the lava rose too high and is eating them before the helicopter gets there.
>>7199535178 no marshmallows9 no morale boost from fire10 no luggage11 no helicopter
>>719953517I feel that would separate the player base too muchSome won't join if you host Ascent X+It's probably better to refine the current game, add something fundamental to the core gameplay that serves the game long-term on its ownFor example, adding items would be a secondary addition, since you can already reach the goal with the current item set.Something truly fundamental would be something that plays around the Stamina mechanics.For example, this could be a primary addition: another stamina bar that represents "Endurance". All action except walking, standing, crouch, expends Stamina AND Endurance. Endurance serves as the Stamina refill, as long as you have Endurance, your Stamina will refill naturally as it is right now. But, if you run out of Endurance, your stamina won't get refilled. Endurance takes a lot longer to deplete, but also longer to refill on its own (sleeping might be a good idea).In short: Stamina could be our burst-effort, while Endurance would be our total available action point.This is a primary addition because it completely changes your pacing and strategy to routing, etc.I'm not saying they should add this, just an example. A fundamental change requires careful considerations of all gameplay aspects.

I finally got the crown!
We need more alt biomes and special areas like the tomb
>>719953898Why would morale boost even matter at that high of an ascent? You aren't really going to be doing it in a big group. You can just do items are breakable like pitons already placed.
anyone up for a run? I can host one in 30mins
im up and ready to PEAK
