death stranding thread sil vous plaif
this game fucking sucks. ds1 is way better. kojima needs to get raped
>>736778189HITO MOJITO PRESENTS......A GAME BY HITO MOJITO......METH HANDLING
I fucking love hauling cargo and I thank Kojima for making games that appeal to me specifically.Also I would fuck Tomorrow.
>>736760281Did it.Board->Clockwise. Pick up 4 (maxmium), rush to F2. Move to 5 (the Camp near the V-tuber and Heartman's place), pick up, move to the river near the Wildfire area, ride river down to 6. Instead of backtracking to try to go UP the mountain, go wide by moving to the "ocean" instead (monorail going to F4) from 6, move follow monorail while boating for speed to road of F4. Move down to Tar Therapist->Cross mountain to Camp. Hit 7/Camp. Move from there to F7 (short hop up from where camp is), move down the "trench run" of the main story to F8 (being careful to not damage cargo)-> Hit the Monorail-Zipline right behind the barrier that Terminal Fort Knot/F8 has (you'll know if you look around the area)->Zipline straight to F5 with 18-19 mins left.Pull truck out. Manage Cargo all 1-4% damaged cargo into the truck. Haul ass up the (Level 1) road to the bend that pulls down to Mr. Impossible.Get off the truck and report the end with 16 mins or so left.S rank gained, both bonuses gained. No warp so Likes aren't deducted 100 likes gained.Your way totally works, BTW. Just wanted to see if it was entirely doable no-warps and it is. Tough (Surf board is twitchy, IMO after hours with the truck), especially protecting cargo from 5% limit, but doable.Also made me appreciate the board when going down the river as a bayou taxi. BT's start up "FUCKING STOP SLOWDOWN, LET ME GO!" and no BT issues like going up the mountain with the board would because BT's can't cross water.
>>736778484Also knocked the camps out first, that's key for this since it's easier to go back to pick up Cargo 5, 6, 7 without needing to deal with them on the way to the roof of 5.
>>736778484>>736778516>F2Mine near North Observatory, oops.
>nearly last third of the game is on railsit made me care less and less about the story and lore dump, i just want to connect everyone else and finish the roads and rail.
>Oh hey there. This is just a comfy lil game about making deliveries and occasionally confronting enemy NPCs. >WOOAaAAAAaAaaaAAA I’M A WHACKY PORTER NOW DUDERINO WATCH ME RIDE THIS SICK TAR WAVE THROW IT BACK DIEHARDMAN CATCH YOU ON THE FLIP SIDE DUDES
played myself
>entrance to f8 looks a bit like batman bridge in tasmaniasoul?
>>736778189How BTs and time falls are back I thought it was all gone at the endAlso this does feel like a DLC rather than a new game not complaining much but I was expecting more
>yeast paste lost cargoi wonder if this was supposed to be vegemite but they couldnt snag the license lol
>>736779253unironic retcon. the story should’ve ended with the first game. the second game is cool and all but shouldn’t have had anything to do with the first game
>>736779523The true ghost rider...
>>736779126If you skip the cutscenes in both games you never run into this problem
>>736780059kek true
tomorrow looks pretty cute in her drawbridge gear
I was thinking about upgrading my pc for DS2 but I think I'll wait for Physint to come out.
>>736778296Holy based
I really wish you could use the dpad as a shortcut for the music player rather than signs. Fuck signs. I wish I could ban all signs from my world.
>>736780631You can. Setting structures to only some also removes signs.
I just started DS2 and the first boss fight filtered me. Control is instantly seized from me, I am stunlocked, I am assuming all is fine if you hit the dodge even remotely close when you need to, but is that really how every major encounter is going to go? I am going to be in a pool of tar, the control of my character greatly impaired, then stunlocked, then impaired again, then stunlocked, etc. Maybe I will boot it back up, but fuck, that was awful
>>736780791youre better off trying to stand on the floating shit during a bt fight, that way you can get out of dodge quicker
>>736780059Problem?
>>73677848416 minutes left is pretty insane considering there's zero teleport involved. Good job man.I've been using the coffin on the river when delivering between motherhood/pioneer/ghost hunter/east fort knot and yea it's fun. Also the route between the Chronobiologist and Ghost Hunter is prime coffin path.>>736780791Yea the game tries to be both MGSV and a delivery sim so the controls feel like a muddy unresponsive mess. The tar floors are limited to BTs thankfully but all they really need to do is just make the platforms static, easily accessible, and plentiful so players can use that as a reliable safe spot to jump inbetween. You eventually unlock the boost/battle skeleton which lets you move more on tar(still kind of shit) and a kind of a jetpack that makes you immune to fall damage and increases jump distance but honestly at that point you'll also unlock pokemon BTs with infinite aggro and it makes the fight play itself anyways so the combat at least with BTs stay consistently shit to mediocre. Though the spectacle is still cool to watch.
threadly reminder the mute dollman mod is out and its pure bliss.
her therapist license should be revoked
its hilarious how the tire upgrade only highlights even more how silly the vehicle physics are especially in the mountains, the truck will actually do wheelies lol.
keep on keeping on
>>736782538Hmm no I don't think I will>go necro
>>736779434I somewhat disagree, I think it still should have been a sequel where you play as Sam, but I think that they should have reshuffled what parts of the death stranding are in play. I think Timefall should be gone, and I think surface BT‘s of the variety we saw in the first game should be gone. They’ve introduced the new guitar current stuff, make the new threats come from that. Timefall was never a particularly interesting gameplay mechanic, it mostly exists as a tonal feature, to make the world seem inherently hostile. I don’t find it ever really affects deliveries, if the delivery was important, you brought new gear. Removing it to show some sort of progress from the first game, and then introducing new threats from the tar, APAS, and Higgs 2 should have been the move in my opinion.
>>736782675I meant tar current, i have no idea what infected my brain to write “guitar current” other than thinking about Higgs
what is with the shrieking and snarling and shit when you leave a bt area, is this a late game thing? it didn't do this earlier.
>>736780739That removes many types of structures though, I just want to banish signs.
>>736780631>>736783162The tip is to let structures load in for a bit while you have share Everything, then switch it to only Some and delete the signs and annoying structures.
>>736783202That is the juice I need. I'll do that once I connect the final zones.
>>736782718DS3 will let us ride the guitar currents, trust the plan
>>736779434Yikes Kojima. I defended MGS4 retcons because they fit the story but this ain't it
>>736778243>kojima needs to get rapedI would be down for this, but on one condition.
Any tips for a beginner? I got 5h in DS2 so far.
>>736779253Amelie herself says the 6th extinction was merely delayed. It's not that far fetched that ghost niggers and timefall wouldn't be gone forever. The elder's death being retconned into lol sam it was a ruse I wasn't actually dead, on the other hand...
>>736784456Don't forget about using your biotes.Don't do everything in vehicles. Take the time to enjoy the hike every now and then. Soak in the atmosphere.Take pictures.
>>736784456Most of the new gear gets unlocked up to the 4th star connection level, don't bother trying to 5 star places until after the story is done. Except for the lone commander, if you like the sniper rifles try to max him out as early as you can. Check the NPC section in the corpus, it tells you what the next connection level will unlock. Remove backpack for ezer combat. Kick survivalists. Body slam survivalists. Bomb survivalists. Don't rush, take your time. Enjoy the vibes.
>>736784521>The elder's death being retconned into lol sam it was a ruse I wasn't actually dead, on the other hand...Yeah that was dumb since it serves no purpose other than Kojima wanting the actor to make another cameo.
>>736782718>tar in guitarHoly shit I didn't even realize. Kojima I kneel.
>>736784521>The elder's deathwhen did he die? i finished the first game and he was still alive.
>>736784936If you don't deliver to him for a while he dies and turns into a BT, that you can still deliver to.
>>736784631>>736784690thanks sisters
>go back to mexico>remember rivers can dry up as well as flood>doesnt happen in australiacool... cool cool cool.
>>736784456stop playing immediately and go play death stranding 1
NOOOOOO LET ME PICK THEM UP I NEED THE DOPAMINE HIT
>>736786417ANON REPAIR THAT TRUCK
>>736786662nah i just made a new one since im rich now
>>736786782>not keeping the same truck with your for the whole adventure
>>736786782>he didn't use the same truck throughout the gamengmi
>>736785882I already played it on PC release, I finsihed it 1,5 times. I was super addicted to building ziplines.Also I just did the tutorial mission for clearing out a area of BT's. I kept throwing the blood grenades at the BT's but they didnt go away. So i got dragged into the tar and just ran away from the fight and I got the mission clear. Was that the actual mission objective? Wtf lol.
>>736787260>>736787269
>>736787449
>You have reached the maximum number of cargo that can be entrusted. Cargo destroyed
Why do NPC porters get walking sticks but Sam doesn't?
>>736784631>Don't do everything in vehicles.Honestly second this
>>736787449>>736787478holy shit, I want these on my wall so bad
anyone got the artbook scans?
>>736787621i think they were just commissioned for TGS, and the artist doesnt have a website for prints or anything. nothing on kojipro store either.
>>736787784;_;
>>736787564Sam isn't a woman.
>>736784748>>736785007it doesnt have to be a retcon, what if canonically sam was just too good at his job and never let the elder die?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1B4k9A7Zl9U>>736788212It says right there in the corpus that he faked his death the first one anyway :^)There's anons who were always delivering to him so that he'd stay alive during their playthrough. For 99% of the playerbase he died. DS2 acknowledging his "death" isn't so much the issue, it's the whole faking to be dead so he can be carried to the closest city as a corpse in order to avoid terrorists thing. And in order for the deception to work he couldn't tell sam because ??? Like hell sam would snitchAlso what city did he go to ? I was under the impression that he went to lake knot, since that's the closest city to his shelter. Then a void out occured and he became part of APAS. So is 1/4th of the map of the first game a giant crater now ?
Just started doing the postgame, what the fuck do you mean I can't have my pod on my chest full of applies, or cryptobiotes or something? It's the defining part of Sam's design and you even get all these customisation options!But most of all, why the FUCK do I still have the indicator for Lous mood on the UI if the mechanic doesn't exist anymore?!
>>736778243he already has to wear a wig to model for his merch brand to make money. its over
>>736787449>>736787478holy cringe its a uber eats game
He did nothing wrong.
>>736790075He jobbed.
>pick up a bunch of people's lost cargo in the truck to deliver it all to west knot for later>jump off a tiny piece of ground and land>CRACK>two fragile cargoes ruinedAt least I learned this with some other loser's cargo
>>736790273I feel like the impact damage is fucked on an engine level. Sometimes I'll ram in a tree at full speed while on the coffin and cargo gets 0 damage. Other times I'll slowly bump into a rock and my cargo will be ruined.
GAME OVER
>>736778243I agree it's worse, but it doesn't suck
>>736792403I wouldn't say that it's worse, but massively different despite being DS1.5 gameplay wise
>>736780818i wonder if they keep slides of the sweaty sole imprints on cold glass
>>736792451Probably the best thing he's eaten in months, maybe years, given how everyone subsists off bugs in this game.
What would an adult cryptobiote taste like
>still a thing in 2
>>736792403This. The game has a lot of more problems than the first one did, but it’s still a decent game on its own.
Generals belong on /vg/
>>736782675I wouldn’t say Timefall wasn’t an interesting mechanic. It’s a fundamental part of Death Stranding, you have to weave that into the game mechanics somehow. But I agree with the last bit in your post about how Kojima should’ve found a way to sort of make a brand new “extinction event” that doesn’t involve Timefall and BTs.
>>736793538BT areas need to be changed or removed, in both games they're just a bother
>>736793517>recently released game gets one or two threads a day>muh generalBut yes I'd like to revive /kjpg/. Don't know what the fuck to put in the OP though.
I really wish there was better online functionality to this game.
>>736795297>6 billion level 3 structures everywhereOr>nothingu rike?I set structures setting to only some at some point because I was tired of this shit, but it also removes signs and I love signs. Reeeeeeeeeee
>>736778189how many did it take to invent the camera?
Kot
>>736795995At least 3 hideos.
>drive off the ship at full speed>cargo damaged
>>736796451out fucking playedwould be a shame if you carried something explosive
>no pizza song for pizza deliveriesRUINED
>>736782449I've had the truck start to vibrate (the controller) really hard and then fling itself off the mountain at times. I have no idea what changed between DS1 and 2's Decima Engine upgrade, but good lord.
>>736784456Don't five star early. Trust me on this.Once you hit 4 star, stop and move on. There is only one (1) prepper you want to five star and even THEN their item gets outclassed immediately (enemies get armored up) to where Shock Bola beats all (because it gets around said armor).
>>736788212Isn't the Elder a prepper in 1? AFAIK if you keep delivering things he DOESN'T die. I never had that trigger in my DS1 (non-DC Steam) playthrough.
>>736799078>riding coffin in mountains>steep but flat slope>just pressing R2>suddenly coffin deviates 1cm>get launched backwards>sometimes into stratosphere>spend next minute trying to recover and stop all movement
>>736799340Yeah, the coffin is similar on the mountains. Though at times it won't let me fix it's "surfing the wave" as it's going up/sideways relative the mountain. Like the game is trying to do the "press left stick in other direction to fix balance" mechanic but the engine is like "nah, you're climbing a mountain, brah" so it doesn't do it.
Running over all western observatory cargo I see
I'd like to apologize. I accidentally put some Indian fellas on to the chiral internet.
Just entered the Pizza Chef’s kitchen. The whole cutscene was absolute cinema. Those rubber pizzas doujd handy too
>>736794096Have them spawn sporadically through out the map like roaming lost souls, same with timefall, more rainstorms across the map.Having BTs always parked in the same areas ruin their impact in the game>The spooky monster no one can see>All bunched up in one place>"I'll just avoid this area and go around it">Threat removed
If you played online, you didn't beat the game.I carve my own paths.
>>736804087You let the wind tell you where to go. You didn't beat the game.
>>736790075unironically
>>736804087If you used anything but your pee to beat the enemies, you didn't beat the game.
>>736803869>Having BTs always parked in the same areas ruin their impact in the gameThey sort of tried that this outing. BT's aren't in set zones at times. The timefall "moves"/rains or doesn't, snows or doesn't, bushfires or doesn't. It's just that it doesn't happen sporadically or often enough.DS1 you're right in that BT areas were "set" and 2's are "set" in that you know where they are, but 2's aren't "always there" like 1's were.3 should have events happen a bit more often. Like once you beat the game, you don't really have "Gate Quakes" happen and even through the story they were so minor (seemed scripted but apparently aren't?) that they weren't really huge deals beyond "*sigh* I gotta fix my monorail/roads."I think the trade off should be that roads/monorails/infrastructure's "grind" shouldn't be so grindy if events happen more though. But 2 is already (IMO) a slog enough as it is that adding more grind to it would kill it for even the most die-hard(man) autists that enjoy the gameplay.
>Higgs >BOSON PARTICLE Did La Crestovidsdo do it again, or is it just coincidence?
>>736786782Thanks doc
>>736787449>>736787478I don't know if they changed artists but 1's goes hard, while 2's looks bad (might be quality, it's not as crisp as 1's).I think the purple-blue color scheme works better than the blood red.
>>736804380In the third game they just set the BTs to roam the map in packs or alone, either hunting other human npcs or the player.I never notice them moving in 2, the game is quite obvious when it's about to throw a BT area in front of your order path so as soon as the obvious appear I went 180 and went around them.
>>736804731>the game is quite obvious when it's about to throw a BT area in front of your order pathI don't know about order path, but yeah. The game is obvious with BT's appearing with it going blood red, heavier rain and the slowdown light flickering effect.They should probably get rid of those so BT's are an actual surprise/dread than "ugh... NOT NOW."
>>736804819Not mean visual queues I mean>Need to deliver order to the methodological station in DS1>There's only two ways to directly go to the station>If you follow the logical path, you'll cross the river and go southward then up to reach the easier path>Guess what: BT area there>If you go northward towards the rock>No BTsSame with other orders>New place?>BT area near the most obvious route>Or a mule camp nearbyHave them be ambush predators or hordes that stampede across the map would've been better, and remove the obvious visual queues too, just have the sensor start blipping without the slow down extra focus and musical queue we get that crashes the pace of every delivery run.
>this cargo has been designated as hazardousYES I KNOW I HAVE DELIVERED EXPLOSIVE SHIT TO EVERYONE ELSE ON THE MOUNTAIN WHOSE HOBBY IS LAUNCHING ROCKETS
>>736805121>>this cargo has been designated as haza->Crack the skull of the nearby kangaroo with the case
I just finished Crimson Desert and I'm starting this upSorry I was late
>>736805121Yeah, they really should have that turned off after the first few. I'm wondering if it's part of the "show tips" option setting.
>>736805356Ignore the stamina beeping you get when crossing rivers
>>736805375it isn't, i turned off tips eons ago because YOU CAN USE THE STICKY CANNON TO PICK UP CARGO every 5 minutes was even worse
>>736805356Funnily, I'm doing the reverse
I dislike how autistic everyone is in this game and the previous.
>>736805620Patches did a lot of nice things in that game so that's probably a win. As for me, it's nice to play a game with normal controls and I've having trouble controlling Sam when I am used to the monstrosity that was CD's controls
>>736805117Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah... I'm wondering if it's an engine limitation in that they build these "zones" or not.
>>736805704Every day, I feel like there's a patch that somehow changes everything about the game and I gotta wait.
>>736805672For me I like it>Get told to go back aboard and talk to Tomorrow>Catch Fragile and Tomorrow talking>Interrupt them with your mumbling>Fragile looks at you like you're some dehydrated retard>Tells you to go to sleep>You shuffle awayOr>Catch Tomorrow sitting in the staircase surrounded by apples>"Uhh""Mmm-uh-uhh">"Mhhuh">Leave to your roomAnd my favourite>Catch Rainy and Tomorrow singing>Shuffles away mumbling the son loudly startling both of the girls
>>736801498SAM NO, RUNNING OVER THE CARGO DAMAGES IT AND IF IT GETS DAMAGED ENOUGH IT WILL BE DESTROYED, NO PROPER PORTER SHOULD EVER DO THAT
>>736805906I've not finished 2 yet, but I've got a feeling we're gonna have to wait until the very end for any emotions, sorta like Deadman / Die-Hardman in the 1st
>>736805672It's showing what happens to people who are isolated and only socialize through online networks. It's accurate. Most young people today have awful social skills and can't hold a conversation IRL by themselves, because they mostly communicate online
I've got no fucking idea what Lou is, or why nobody is talking about the fact that Lou is both dead and I'm carrying around a 2nd Lou or something.
>>736805979I don't blame him, Dollman. Have you ever seen ANY other cargo out there, even in Eastern Australia?
>>736806048Keep playing, it'll be explained. Also get out of this thread fast if you don't want to be spoiled.
>>736806048Ask Dollman about it.
>>736806048Come on now Anon, it's quite on the nose this one.
>>736806138>Also get out of this thread fast if you don't want to be spoiled.fug nta but I guess I'd better bail too
>>736805121Explosive lost cargo near ghost mechs is a god send
>>736806265>>736806151>>736806138I mean, I think that Tomorrow is actually Lou, but I've got no ideaa what the baby I'm carrying is.
>>736806353that too will be resolved, just keep playing
>>736806393gotcha gotcha back to gooning i go
>>736806353Think two seconds about what the game is trying to say to you and what you already think you know.
i know people keep saying drawing routes is pointless, but i use it all the time on the mountain at night
>>736806460What night the game is quite lit. The flashlight is nearly useless
>>736806460It's handy for tight express deliveries
>>736778189>over 100 hours of playtime>still in chapter 8Am I just slow as shit or is this game fucking huge?
>>736806552i can't see jack shit in cloud layer at night>but just spam the scanneri like this better
>>736806353Neil is just Lou grown up. He fights you because that's all he's ever done on his beach. He doesn't know you're his father.
>>736806728>huge>you just walk for hours doing NOTHINGempty world gamers need a genocide.
>>736806728Take your time, shit get progressively retarded after the first Neil fight
>>736806728i was the same but i was building roads and rails and 5 starring everyone as i went along.
>>736807028I did that all the way up to the Motherhood of Feel, and then got bored. It's also irritating how I have to manually submit my orders one by one in order to get the maximum amount of stars per delivery.
>>736806728Took me something like 205 hours to 100% everything including the 400 deliveries. If you take your time, this game can last a long while
>>736806836Being fair: Daytime is similar. I don't know if it's a bloom effect or what, but shit is like a goddamn whiteout through that area each time.
>>736806847I haven't finished the game. Fuck why did I open that spoiler
>>736806460It's actually real good if you're wanting to walk or trying to find areas that aren't going to bog you down. Seeing yellow/red and "DANGER FALL DANGER!" signs is nice.People are free to not use it and autismo walk their way, but it's a good QoL change.
>>736807278lol anon don't worry its a jokebut seriously don't hover over spoilers you might actually read a real one
>>736807278The boy is yours, are you gonna step up and be the BB Daddy your BB needs?
>>736807417kek, you're not wrong. We're so back.
>>736807417That sounded extremely retarded, so exactly what Cumjug could've written.
>>736807474>BB Daddy
>>736807474I'm not the step dad, I'm the porter that stepped up.
>>736807558>Takes women with baggages>"Yeah, I'm the porter, how can you tell?"
What was up with higgs taking sam's empty pod in the factory and saying well ain't that something, like something is happening but nothing happens because the pod is fucking empty
>>736807791He's fucking with you
Nice fucking port Nixxes.The voice lines stopped working during the final? Neil Vana cutscene right after he took the photo, I tried to mess with the audio settings and that made the game freeze on the next scene forcing me to restart back at the fight...I literally booted into windows specifically because I saw this was a bug on Linux, fucking hell.I assume it's because I played for too long, so for anyone delivering shit to F7 North Distribution Center (the one where you have to backtrack all the way to the Lab), make sure to save and reload the game if you did like 5 hours of side quests before getting there.
>>736807948Don't update your game, went through the entire game without issues.>Linuxlol lmao
the process of upgrading roads and shit takes so goddamn long, I have like 7 sections left to get to level 2 and I'm done. took me like 16 hours so far just to do level 2 everywhere
>>736807862I may be rarded for not realizing
>>736808024>don't updateI wish I didn't because I feel like performance has only gotten worse.>LinuxIt happened on Windows :(
FUCK TOMORROW
higgs
>>736809695Yes! With tar.
>>736809705did nothing wrong
>>736809471Tbh, initially he's fucking with you for sport, rubbing salt on the wound. Later on he catches on the connection between you and BB and he starts fucking with you more but orchestrating the whole finale. Wth the last one jab at the end to just call you a massive retard.
I was spoiled about Fragile dying, but it still hit me like a truck. My boy Sam didn't deserve this.
>>736811060I thought the Sam punishing went a little too far in my true and honest opinion
>>736811759>amelie cuts all contact from everything>deadman fucks off to the beach>fragile fucking dies>don't even spend time with tomorrow
Uh... I don't think I'm going to shower after all.I'm a first time player and this game is messed up at times
>>736807706(Real game spoilers for those that care)>Tries to smuggle her out of corpo>Dies anywaySmells like Teen Failed Planning.
>>736808024It happens on Windows, Jeet.>I literally booted into windows specifically because I saw this was a bugI know English isn't your first language, but READING COMPREHENSION.>>736807948I had flashbacks not load until I reloaded. It's a weird bug and totally on Nixxes, not Proton at this point.
>>736814109>I literally booted into windows specifically because I saw this was a bug on Linux, fucking hell.It implies he was on Linux, the booted to Windows, you read better nigger. And don't play the game on a potato.
So is getting to the southeast part of Australia after doing the mountain basically the end of the game?
>>736814706Not quite the end but close
>>736814706You need to find the adventurer two more times before the game allows you to go to the final stretch.
SAARS I FOUND THE EXTINCTION ENTITTY
>>736814706main order 40-ish is the beginning of the endgame. you'll know because tarman will tell you as such. at that point just finish it because the magellan will be out of play and doing side stuff like moving resources around is a pain in the ass and building roads/rails is just blocked by preppers. also the post game is VERY comfy with a special option that happens.
>>736816143This better be a dead body on your back rather than a jeet
>>736816243sadly not even the chiral creatures would kill him
>>736816365Dunk him into the tar, no one will ever know
i never thought about it until just now but if you drop the adventurer in a bt zone and just run away will he get eaten and trigger a game over voidout?
>>736816610BTs steer clear of him.
>>736813652trust me brah thats not the worst thing that happens in the showers in this game
the cheevo where you have to s rank ten of each mission is brutal
Sex.
>>736817324
Sam, why are you so autistic and creepy?
>>736811060rugpulled
>>736817320whyyou can you do it on casual
>>736817759why did kojima get such a hard on for making sam suffer>death can't tear us apart ;-;
>>736817885because theres fuck all destruction and elimination missions and a bunch of them are tied to doing other missions first but you wouldnt know it or know what triggers them
>>736778189>You don't understand, Anon-chan. I am an enlightened Kojima scholar and it was completely evident that he was done with MGS since MGS2So that was a bunch of pseuds fucking lying, yeah?
I have a cool lil loop going with the main deliveries and standard/sub deliveries. After every main delivery, Fragile tells you to come to the Magellan. I take that as my “okay, you did the main mission, fuck around all you want then go rest to progress the story” cue. It reminds me of how in Blue Reflection you had to talk to the Shijou sisters after beating a chapter in order to advance into the next one. In that time I’ll use the order search function in the pause menu to see what new orders have become available then I take the time to do them all. It takes me like an hour or two to clear all the new orders and take on the next main delivery. It’s a comfy loop
>>736817759DESU I didn't feel anything from this because there was no development leading up to it. Like almost everything else in the game. Like all the tomorrow scenes. I know you're trying to emotionally manipulate me with the filmography, but I'm not buying it. The only NPC I cared about was the most based man not alive, and even then I feel like they ruined him with all the surprise developments near the end.
>evry fight with bts in the post gamei'm gonna destroy your body and take your chiralium '(til the break of dawn)
Post ending, so many deliveries left Like 120 Still two peppers to find, although I got bpas lost cargo in an enemy camp Theres just so much KHANTENT Im keeping enemies on the map though for the spice
Story is done. Time for the real meat of the game.
>>736819804how do you stack it beyond 320?
>>736819840put 4 XL materials containers in your backpack and auto arrange and it compacts them from 4 to 2 containers
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O91YcZWcUVY
>>736819840Put 2 in your backpack and auto arrange cargo. Only works in your backpack, not in any other storage. They will only collapse into the largest size container you have around, so 2 Ls won't merge into an XL.>>736819856the most dumbass preppers around
>>736819963I get the intention with the song, humanity always wins whatever but they're the gayest lyrics in fucking history
>>736819963
>>736819909>>736819987thanks, i usually just throw containers the mine spits out directly into the monorail container from the mine management menu
>>736820154It's useful for hauling things around in the truck, since you'll likely hit the volume limit before the weight limit.
>>736820209that's cool, shame there's no auto arrange thing for the truck or an upgrade for the mines to automatically compact containers.
How did a guy trapped in his bunker for an unspecified amount of time manage to get American beer when the gate has only just opened?Also why can't Sam get Timefall Porter in the private rooms?
Loving this shit, im right where dollman warns you that a "point of no return" is about to happen. I know theirs more game like DS1, but is THIS area right here in pic related possible to bring online into the chiral network?Im trying to finish up 4 stars and building the road network before I continue. Not sure if this area is after that point or if its one of those "hidden" preppers.
>>736820369technically i think, but it rights near the end so you may as well just finish the story anyway if only to free up the magellan.
>>736794096I would prefer just the bosses walking around shadow of the Colossus style.
I love the mountain though I wish there were some more difficult sections. There aren't any routes where you need to bring a bunch of ladders and climbing anchors.
Jewtube just spoilered me DS3 plot
>>736820730i was more disappointed vog was pretty much forgotten.
>>736820730The first time I went to rescue the dude, I left my vehicles behind cause they were damaged and I used a bunch of ladders and ropes.After I got the tires though I just plowed through everything.
>>736820369Yes. There is a Lost Cargo right outside F8 (LITERALLY, scan right outside the "ramp"/door of F8) and take it to the perosn that is listed in that area.We don't know if it happens in Chapter 13/14, so if you head over there before linking it (which should be obvious if you've linked other areas/F7 before that point, you can bring it online after delivering another 2-3 Lost Cargo (look up the prepper if you want to spoil it), but again: we don't know if it's post-game or not.Once you have it though, get ready for slight pain if you're going for 5-star.
>>736820364its funny because there's beer on the ship too
Anyone got the image of him walking away when Expedition 33 won GOTY? I know it wasn't him, but it was still a really funny image. I don't think I've laughed that much in years as when /v/ was clowning on him for not winning any awards during Jeff's last show.
>>736819349the part where sam goes to hug him straight away but finds out its a hologram was pretty good
portercule
>>736817759IMO there is no build-up to it. Her and Sam have a working relationship in 1 and she's a babysitter in 2. The whole romance thing is forced for a scene before you know happens.>>736819349Deadman was BASED this outing. Though they fucked up by having Del Toro exit early. He should've (real game spoilers) been the Samurai pre-Beach, and we find out he has a mechanical heart as he gave his actual heart to Heartman before that point. Higgs beats him but we find out the Heartman thing, which leads to a round 2 where Higgs gets chopped like the first weapons factory.Also not a fan of his face during the reveal at the end. Felt like (real game spoilers) Mech Higgs that shows up on the ship but with no animation.
>>736819664The Gold Mask makes the Pokemon mechanic worth it because you can literally beat the BT with 5-6 Rocket Lockon launchers before the 2 min timer ends if you have some Chronos.
get the fuck out of my shelter
>>736820369>that amount of useless constructionsI understand jumping ramps, bridges, generators and zip lines, but why litter the map with everything else? Who the fuck uses shelters? Container damage is meaningless if you're able to walk without falling down and watchtowers are useless thanks to Dollman.I muscle through the entire game building only generators and using ladders
>>736825908Shelters refill your sippie. I wouldn't ever build one but I have on occasion appreciated them.
>>736807269>>736806836You're going through the cloud layer. That's why the "weather" is absolute shit no matter the day. Which is a shame because I wish I'd had a better view from the metal hotspring.
>>736825908I don't know if parking your truck under it keeps the entire truck safe from timefall but at least the NPC porters interact with it and I like that. It's also a nice insurance. Watchtowers are way faster than Dollman and you don't have to wait for him to return everytime.In my experience bridges are kind of useless because of roads and you can just bruteforce most rivers with your truck. I've seen more useless roads than actually useful ones like that one near the chronobiologist that keeps on fucking respawning so I placed a guidepost to block it.
>>736825908Wait can dollperson tag enemies?
>>736825908>and watchtowers are useless thanks to Dollman.and dollman is useless thanks to compass view or simply scanning. how hard they tried to force and endless little quip machine tied to your belt to be "useful" is fucking hilarious.>but he can distract things!that's what holo grenades are for. kojipro know he's worthless which why he is forced upon the player at all times.
>>736827792As a tentative dollman apologist I find it shocking how little he actually talks. Like he clearly exists because Norman is more expensive but still he barely comments on stuff. It's weird.
>>736827126You can do the same: Compass view in either and zooming (probably don't need to zoom) on the enemies.Watch tower is just faster since a scan like L1 will tag them faster.
>>736827792To be fair I still use Dollman when I build structures since he lets me get a bird's eye view of the area. He's a nice insurance outside of chiral network coverage too.
>>736828026Sure but the tower can mass super-tag enemies and individually tagging enemies takes much longer than it's worth.
Man, are the jeet's stars really locked behind the rescues? I delivered 4 standard orders and it didn't budge a bit.
>>736828237Racism aside (and I don't think true strandies believe in that stuff), doing the set missions is much faster than delivering tonnes of lost cargo to the Reluctant Witholdist or whatever.
>>736828237yes he's story locked. dont waste standard deliveries on him. use lost cargo if you have to until he mentions he's leaving again, then you can either go sleep or let time pass normally until his son begs you to rescue him again on strand xitter. phantom smith and the aero engineer are easy to do in the meantime or that poor guy in the observatory is also really worth it for stabilizers
>>736828237Yea and you get nothing after the climbing gloves level 2 btw. For his final rescue you should bring a coffin board and place it at the tar crater north of Australia, thank me later
>>736828991can i just bring one in my truck
>>736829067No, because it won't teleport with you. You actually have to deliberately place it because this fucking jeet shitskin is in the island middle of the tar crater just to farm his izzat.
>>736828991>>736828237Huge general tip is that if you go to the corpus it will say if a delivery hole has a good reward coming and in general what is next.Also remember that our queen, The Dowser, would not talk about the adventurer like some here feel too comfortable to.
>>736829223Why do you talk like a worse Dollman?
>>736828102Yeah, that's that anon's point. I was just explaining that it's possible to do it WITHOUT Dollman since you can do it yourself like you can with Dollman.
>>736828237Yes, he's locked. If the star isn't moving, wait. You're better off saving before delivering complete, if it doesn't move, reload, put in locker and wait until the SSS post.It's the most annoying quest in the game because of that.
Are the Impossible Twins not available until after the story is over?Is it possible to bring everyone on the grid before finishing the plot? Not 5 star just getting the map complete
stylin on u
>>736830183Apparently you can but it's literally a chapter before the end of the game. You have to sleep/reload for their lost cargo to appear too.Probably the most annoying part about the game but at least you get an option to reduce BTs and completely remove ghost mechs once you clear the story.
>>736830381JOKER COLOURS? NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE
>>736830183nah you can get them and bpas after F8 but it kinda annihilates the pacing to stop for them
>>736830420>420fucking loser
>>736830183by the time the game spawns the lost cargo for them and bpas you're pretty much at the end anyway, just finish it. also so you can use the magellan again.
>>736830441Literally just smoked a bunch of hash and gonna drive my orange truck around and fuck your mom
>>736830381Anon, I'm starting to think you're literally killing these porters and they aren't mysteriously falling off cliffs or having sudden heart attacks...
>>736831057porters love me
>>736830183See: >>736821826As others say (beyond BPAS, which I found near F7), if you're already at F8 you're nearly at the end of the game (literally the final hour or two) and should just push it to get the DHV unlocked to zip about again instead of hauling the Lost Cargo for them via Monorail from F8 to F5.BPAS doesn't get anything huge for starring them to make doing it before the end really worthwhile besides the Chiral gatherer (which won't be worth much at end game).
>>736819963GOOD GOD!
>>736827792He only beats the scanner by being able to do aero recon. Everything else he sucks at, I'm tempted to do another run with the mod that shuts him up just to experience the game again without him.
>>736829952NTA but I never managed to mark someone without a tower. I also never learned how to change the monorail logo
Get out of st- AAAGH
>>736831791You have to compass and zoom-in (I think not zooming is also possible) and hold it on them. It'll take a second or three to mark them. It's a slow process, but possible.
>>736831791>change the monorail logoWHAT
DS1 just had a different feel that was for lack of a better word, "comfy". 2 just doesn't scratch the same itch.
i dont want to lose my job and have to movie in with my mom because an orange nigger raped kids on tape
>Ah, a fine place to urinate!>*equips dick*still not sure what the point of this is.
why is this so rewarding holy shit.
>>736832841if enough people piss in the same location eventually a cyptobiote colony will form, at least that's how it was in the first game. in 2 you're in the magellan so much or you can be the pizza man and rest at anyone's shelter it makes pissing outside a bit pointless.
>>736833241you can tie down cargo on carriers using your strand too
>>736832402DS2 is better in every way possible but it's still really just more of the same exact thing. It very much scratches the same itch because it may as well just be additional content for DS1
>>736833241you can do the same thing with your truck without opening cargo menu. if you have the dc you can strap down cargo with a strand AND you can take one floater with you on a zip line.
>>736832841It instantly kills BT's.
>>736833390>you can do the same thing with your truck without opening cargo menu."Right, gotta load the cargo from the back."
>>736834643apparently they needed that line because everyone didn't figure it from the first game

I have been avoiding this thread because of spoilers but let me just say I was walking through a dry wash and was thinking>in real life I would be really retarded if I walked through this with the weather as it isonly to see a trickle of water a moment later and not even have time to say "oh fuck" before a torrent washed me awayThat's some fucking video game technology right there
>>736786889
>>736778296This except for the last sentence
I've just brought the first monorail online. Gib some non spoilery tips plz. Playing on to the wilder difficulty and it's obviously been ez mode so far but the bosses are a bit cunty.
I went through the extended ost for both death stranding gamesA bit surprised by how good it was. Even the throwaway ambient tracks. Ludwig Forsell did a very good job
>try getting an order on bridges now you fucking stupid bastard!Despite the fact that I 100 percentoed the second game and liked It very march, the first one still has a very strong charm In the places where DS2 somehow lacks. I'm revisiting it in DC right now and I really missed the abandoned sites and the crematoriums (they had very cool fitting design and had special eerie aura around them) in the second one. Still I think it justified because of a tone shift, so Instead of melancholic, rotting yet hopeful we've got the colorful blooming macabre down under in the treeless plain. Somehow DS2 feels like Y2K's optimism revival aesthetically and thematically.
>>736804087350/400TTW so far. Haven't touched online even once. Thats for the second playthrough. Online is literally baby mode. Its actually funny the people complaining about roads taking forever to build when they are playing online.I'm also planning a no roads/vehicles/ziplines/monorail/Magellan-storage offline run in the future.
>>736839206Use the corpus to find out which npcs give better guns. Dont forget about cryptobiotes for healing, don't rely entirely on blood bags.

>deliver some random shit>get an sss post about itsoul
Oka, give me real arguments why is 2 worse than 1. I am currently deciding between buying one or another but I've never played either. 2 seems to have better graphics and locations at the first glance.
>>736840661Play booth you fool, they have different kinds of experiences. Don't be a hypecock riding tourist.
>>736833378What's up with star wars ghosts in the background?
>>736840661I like both a LOT, but playing a direct sequel before the game preceding it is fucking retarded.You can't appreciate many of 2's best moments, both story and gameplay wise, without playing 1.
>>736840661pirate bothbuy your favorite after
Im waiting for life to upgrade my PC so I can play the work simulator DS1 and then DS2
>>736840661play the first one fucker this isnt assassins creed

fuckin jackass antichrist game where you are a HERO because you deliver for notamazon and you own nothing and out eat bugs and not even death can free you. But you get paid in LIKES because you are saving america by delivering packages
>>736840765>>736840807>>736840970>>736840810But I don’t care about story, I usually skip all cutscenes in my games and don't read anything nonimportant , gameplay is the most important part in the games.
>>736841225Then just go play something else entirely.
>>736841170thats for gazers and watchersjellyfish are largely benign chiralium piñatas and you can drive right underneath themgetting automatically stopped for shit like this is what is tiresome

>>736839991Congratulations homo
>>736838013Kek yeah the floods are kinda cool. Shame they’re so underutilized though
>>736847269The same can be said of every environmental hazard to be desu
>>736833241One of those cute little detailed animations games pull off sometimes. It’s “realistic and grounded” but also doesn’t slow the game to a complete halt like half of the animations in RDR2
I love how the combat makes you feel like some sort of god or deity or whatever. I love just equipping the boost skeleton, a staff, and smoke grenades, then just running up at MULEs and beating the shit out of them like some capeshit superhero. Call me Porterman
I really need to make a thumbs up folder. Too bad there's no cutscene viewer to get all those Heartman ones I missed.
>>736847448only one you need
>>736847416>do this all the time in DS1 on very hard on both MULEs and demen>have good times>try in DS2 on TTW on survivalists>single stray bullet is enough to make it all overHonestly armor pads would fix that problem. I don't understand why they aren't in the game in the first place. On the other hand I can activate lethal mode and have a good time killing all those worthless niggers camping on my chemical mine
>>736778189>All the cool shit unlocked almost at the end of the gameWhere's NG+?
im nearing the end of the game and ghost hunter is missing. did i brick myself?
>>736848863doesnt he give you an order to complete when that happens
>>736833378I would say DS2 is worse tonally and in story but yeah mechanically DS2 is unbelievably beter than 1. I don't know how anyone could deny just how much combat is improved from the 1st game. I used to avoid any delivery that involved picking up shit from mule camps and taking them back cause the combat in 1 was garbage but in 2 those are some of my favourites to do.
>>7368406612 is better but you should start with 1.
>>736840661There's a 5 hour long recap movie at the beginning of 2, just watch that.
>>736848863Turn on the qpid
>>736839271People definitely undersell the OST in favor of the licensed songs imo, it really adds a ton of character to both games
>>736839271>no new resting songs>99% of time are you there will play when resting>even post storyI will forgive that because the entire OST is just so good but that's a little disappointing. I'm very attached to Chiralium from the first game because it happens to play as I was resting after clearing the demens camp before going to edge knot
>entrust breakable cargo>83% damageWhich one of you was it?
>>736852063Oh whoops. I didn't know cargo damage carried over between games.
>>736849138Gotta use the grenade launcher, switch it to tranquiliser grenades, literal baby mode easy peasy for any camp.In fact it was so overpowered that now you can no longer fabricate any grenade launcher with tranq grenades in DS2. You must steal one from camps, and even then the ammo is nerfed.Now I'm not overlooking many of the other improvements in DS2, I'm just saying that there was still a decent amount of fun to be had in DS1 as well, at least in the Director's Cut.
>>736805906>>736805672I like it..This game is heaven for me.....I feel like I understand these people more than real life people.
Everybody knows Physint is Metal Gear Liquid at this point, right? It's clearly about Liquid's time with Foxhound before he went rogue. The main character looks like Liquid, he's wearing Liquid's trenchcoat from MGS1. 1984 to 1999 is the last gap in the timeline that needs to be filled, and the only thing Kojima has ever said he regrets with regards to Metal Gear at this point was failing to flesh out Liquid as a character.
When do the standard orders start to really appear? I really can't be bothered doing them because there's barely 4 of them in the places i've unlocked so far. Did the brigand camp at the northern environment observatory. At the moment i'm just shuttling lost/entrusted cargo around to prep for 5 stars at the places i've got.
>>736778189> get to third encounter with Higgs> Sam outright says "Was it you who killed Lou?!"So does Sam think she's dead or not? Feels like the intended idea is that he's delusional in grief and thinks she's back in the pod, but then other characters and he himself will bring up Lou's death like its obvious. Is it instead that the thinks she's a BT? But then that doesn't explain why he sees her as normal looking during gameplay.
>>736787564Sam ain't no weak bitch like other porters.
>>736792451I know this whole scene was a martial arts movie homage thing but it still weirded me out to see Sam fighting in such an agile way. I know he's a strong guy but in most instances of gameplay and combat he's kind of bumbling around like a wobbly truck.
>>736854625After the story is over. No this is not a joke. I did like 200, mexico included, before finishing the story so it's still a good amount but I really hate the way they handled standard orders availability this time around.
>finish all 400 TTW deliveries few days ago>haven't launched game since then>dusting house while listening to DS2 songs>tear up randomlyBros I may be mentally unwell
>>736856624Lmao imagine not just starting a new run immediately after getting all 400 TTW. That's my plan anyway. This time seeing how efficiently I can do it now that I know what's coming.
>>736857187I kinda want to do that but I don't want to burn myself out in case they make another edition like DS1DC or just a DLC that would include shit that should've been in the base game like my fucking armor pads, or robot porters
>>736819349>>736823674You guys have never flirted, courted or been in a relationship if you don't think that kiss had any build up over two fucking games.
I'm about to colonize the east
>>736857861Fix your damn truck up first, that things already half rusted to shit.
>>736840771You generally don't see people in person. They're mostly holograms by their domiciles.
>>736858127I don't fix trucks I just switch to another one
>>736841828>level 2hol up. No one told me about this.
>>736839991>Seasoned Porter lastLMAO. Near big same (mine was VR and doing fabrications), I have no idea what Kojima was wanting with those if he didn't put 10 of each as Standard Orders strung along in the story.
Ghostriders? No problems at all.
>>736841225>Buys a movie game>Doesn't want the movieThen don't play either, stupid hoe.
>>736858749You don't even know what a movie game is
>>736858815DS is absolutely a movie game. In DS1, the gameplay almost seems like an afterthought attached to the original idea for the movie.
>>736858420You get it around F5-6. Game has bad pacing/unlock issues.
>>736858815>Buy Kojima game>Get cutscenes for 80% of it>"Not a movie game, BTW"Neither do you, apparently. <3
>>736858239sovlless porter
>>736858702Based repatriate
>>736856624What's wrong with that? I cried like 5 or 6 times during the course of completing the second game and about as much the first one too and almost all of these were during a music scene.
>>736857861> 640 ceramicsHow? I have my private locker with dozens of 320s.
>>736860846If you carry materials on your back and use the auto-arrange function, the game will combine them and make it so they take up less space. But it only works if it's on you, so you have to move them back and forth between you and your vehicle/carrier. >but whyDo not question his vision
>>736860846Cary in bakcpck, rfonize, viola
>>736856624There are no other games that have the same atmosphere as this......I was sad when it ended.
>>736860846The shitty compression mechanic>put x4 320 ceramics in backpack>auto arrange by holding triangle>get x2 640 ceramics as resultIt only works with cargo that is in your backpack, it's tedious busywork to compress manually and was not needed at all.
>>736860319I do not like crying. People say you're supposed to feel better after crying but it's never the case, even after a massively drunken crying session>>736861115>mfw listening to are you leaving in game before closing it for good
Is it just me or are the vehicles uglier in this game compared to DS1?
>Magellan is waiting for story purposes outside the Adventurer's place>finish delivering shit, misjudge the trek to getback>end up trudging in the tar around the ship with frostbite, little battery and almost no stamina>barely make itI felt this was a metaphor for all the DS2 story so far: Sam busting his ass nonstop while the ship has cute girls doing cute things and chill dudes with one thing in common: they do fuck all
>>736861549It's not just you. They still handle like absolute trash though so they kept that much going.
>>736861549Yes. They were designed this way for vehicle combat, which fucking sucks btw>>736861608Would feel a little different if we could see the crew cleaning up the tar once in a while. It's mentionned but the player will never see it, only reinforcing the idea that they do fuck all. There's one moment in the story where the magellan is really backing you up in gameplay and it's great, if only there were more moments like that

>>736861549>world has rain that fucking ages your ass>every vehicle has an open cockpitI get the gameplay purpose behind it but it's still incredibly retarded
>>736858918>>736859083idk if this is a case of definition drift, but I've never seen a game called a 'movie game' due it it's cutscenes.As far as I'm aware, a movie game is something devoid of gameplay and systems to the point where it's just press A every few minutes to progress the background cinematic experience.

Is there any reason to contribute to building a road/monorail line outside of the chiral network? Seems like you get a better discount if you wait until you hook the region up
>>736862263Name one game that's like this.
>>736862263Those anons didn't even play it. DS is actually a sandbox 80% of the time.

Isnt this game like amazon warehouse worker simulator? has kojima all just turned us into his employees? he basically just wants to make a movie but requires a hamster in a wheel to project the film. I mean Death Stranding is DRY... why not just make MGS 6/7.
>>736863053Life is a sandbox but you dont go outside do you?
>>736856624you dust your house? is your house dusty? do you live in a haunted mansion or something?
>>736863239I made it with more than enough time left using the coffin. Went through the mountains and used a jump ramp I placed near the chronobiologist. How are you attempting to complete it ?
>>736864185>he doesn't clean his house once in a whilengmi
>>736864528good boy!
I know that the scene with Fragile and Lou was supposed to be sad but for me it was ruined.By that stupid 1 wheeled bike fragile had. It is the dumbest looking shit I've seen.
>Looks like you recovered everyt->UP AND AW->Ugh!
>>736864640I have lived in someone else's filth, never again. Need me some bullshit chiral duster
>>736863053>Those anons didn't even play it.Anon plz. I like the game but you can't deny that this entirely a cinematic experience first and foremost. Every action is gated through a cutscene. The length of the "game" comes from repetitive tedium that's incredibly shallow and is clearly not the focus.
If the pod was empty all along who was having the Neil flashbacks Sam kept seeing when he connected it
>>736863053>>736862263
>>736865203anime magic
>>736864741>By that stupid 1 wheeled bike fragile had. It is the dumbest looking shit I've seen.>Don't even get to unlock it for gameplay purposesWHAT WAS THE POINT!?
>>736865203My interpretation is that the pod holds a significant connection to Lou/Tomorrow and Sam/Neil. When you plug it in you're connecting to Lou somehow and getting his flashbacks.Alternatively, Kojima didn't know any better way of introduction Neil so he replicated the Cliff gimmick from the first game but without the confusion of not knowing if it was Lou's or Sam's memories.

>>736865751Fuck you gaslight nigger, his by Neil's flashbacks. When it happens you're not seeing Neil through Lou's eyes, but by Neil's own.Enigma bitch get bent.
>>736865701It could work like those one-wheel skateboard "scooter" things, make it like the coffin board but uses the autobalancer the backpack gets or something.

>>736866340Silly anon I use a wet cloth
>>736864741Kojima has a real propensity for directing cringe. Just did that mission where you go looking for Tomorrow after she leaves pink footsteps all the way to some tar.

>>736870889t. guy who doesnt clean his house and lives in squalor
>>736804731They can't really make the BTs roam without redoing how BTs work by the world's logic. BTs are bound to the place where the corpse that necrotized was. They don't roam because they can't. Now, that was probably written that way because Kojima and co couldn't make them roaming in DS1, but if they make them roaming packs now a lot of how the beaches work has to be explained, which threatens throwing all the other logic out the window. Yeah, Kojima isn't afraid of doing that, but it's a lot of work when a more elegant solution is just to do what >>736782675 and >>736820662 suggest and make the new threat the tar and the catchers from the tar itself. Dump the timefall and the BT zones associated with it and just use the easy and logically consistent with the world excuse, "With Amelie and Drawbridge's Q-Pid sealing beaches those things aren't a factor anymore," but the link to the tar, the seam, and those in between worlds that can touch the beach are still an issue.
jesus the pizza express from the pizza guy to rainy's sheltereven zipping the whole way to the hole above the shelter i only made it by walking off someone's jump pad place abovenever thought to just walk off one before for a safe landing
>>736867452I remember the first time I did that mission I made the mistake of using the enhancement that turns the scanner into a cone, so I kept losing her tracks whenever she made a turn since the cone was so narrow.Second playthrough even though I knew where to go, I had some cargo to drop off at the Dowser and she just said "I did some Dowsing and Tomorrow is at the Northern Environmental Observatory", then her end location is just marked on your map.
>>736872252Some timed deliveries are tight and require some planning. But aside from the ones that require a truck, they can all be done with the coffin. Jump ramps are very nice to have for express orders when a deadly fall is in the way>>736872548>dowser doing some dowsingThat's a nice detail. I enjoyed the entire following footprints thing, except for dollman not being able to stay silent. SAM LOOK, IN CASE YOU CANNOT READ IT'S WRITTEN TOMORROW ON THIS LADDER, TOMORROW MUST'VE PLACED THIS LADDER DOWN SAM
man i got all roads level 2, beat the game and forgot about the road going through mr impossibleand all the roads around F2 to the data scientists are all looking like shit now

is there only the one piece of lost cargo for mr impossible by f8? or is there more?
>>736875473There's one on a cliff. I don't remember where exactly so I circled the area. Bring a sticky gun or a climbing anchor because you can't grab it otherwise. Some may also spawn on the ice randomly.
>>736875661thanks i found that one tooi got enough to get their sub order going
>Right at the end, it turns out Dobby was the villain all along.>Also Neil was only angry because he was a cuck.Jesus CHRIST
>Die-Hardman scene at the end of DS1 saves the game.>Die-Hardman scene at the end of DS2 saves the game.
>>736875473There's more: https://www.reddit.com/r/DeathStranding/comments/1mxwf5a/mr_impossible_lost_cargo_locations_updated/Photos aren't the best, but there's one on the ice flow, one a bit north of Mr. Impossible, one near the Aero (where you rescue the Jeet if you did that already) and one on the monorail between F8 and Mr.Just to note: It won't 4.75 star you for the suborder with just those, you'll have to run some orders to them.
>>736876778>you'll have to run some orders to them.that's fine i just wanted enough cargo to at least 1 star them or whatever it took to unlock them enough to give me orders. if need more lost cargo to finish them up i'll grab that, but they seem somewhat story locked like adventurer.
>>736876942They get locked at like 2.5 and then 4.75 stars.The last mission is a pain, but once you do it (even if you teleport as long as it's an S-rank) you'll cap.

after finally putting impossible on the network the nearby paver requirements hardly budged. i guess most of my player pool gave up. can hardly blame them.

>>736878606If they didn't want me to kill everybody, why are there incinerators in every distro center, also the coffin, also other porters clean up after you?
I solo grinded the fuck out of the first game because that one did not have PS/PC shared online and I was ahead of most people because I took a vacation.While I don't want to repeat that, I feel like everything in 2 is build for me already and I don't have to do anything. It's hard to decide to play offline and miss out on the point of the game or not
>>736879339It also takes longer for enemies to respawn in camps if they've been killed. You can genocide entire camps and be at peace for a while
>>736879375I feel like there's nothing wrong with an online first run, 2nd run should be offline though at least you know the areas and routes and stuff.
>>736863863Because MGS6/7 have already been made - they’re called Metal Gear Survive and Metal Gear Solid Delta. Aren’t Konami so creative and original?
>>736879508I'm an online enjoyer and having everything already built for me everywhere was not fun at all. I changed the online structure setting to only some later thinking that it would do as its name suggest but instead it gets rid of all online structures AND signs, only keeps contribution for roads but not monorail tracks for some reason. There really need to be a proper reduced option.
>>736879375yeah and even the stuff i have seen built online i hardly even use. i only used a zip lines maybe twice in the entire game and none of them were in the mountains. the only online structures i have actually used a lot are private rooms to repair vehicles and refill ammo because for whatever reason you can't just fabricate more ammo.
>you can take off your backpack for faster and more responsive movement >but that fucking nigger will try and steal it half the time What a fucking Monkey’s Paw
>>736880571catch him and do the little mini story
If Death Stranding 3 doesn’t have big rigs I swear to God I’m going to be mildly annoyed
>>736880847there wont be a 3. by the time od and physint are done kojimble will be almost 70 and will likely retire. also no publisher is going to pay the bills for a 3rd game after 2 wasn't exactly what you'd call a hit.
>>736879881I havent played delta but its a remake of snake eater right? Honestly the best thing kojima's ever produced.
>>736880729What fucking mini story, I’ve caught him like three times. The fourth time I just killed the fucker and threw him in a coffin
>>736881706you let him keep the pack, he changes his ways, becomes a porter, and posts about it on strand xitter
I think the second fight with Neil is kino (if a bit janky) and I’m tired of pretending otherwise
>>736839991Keep on keeping on, anon
If im doing repairs on the roads should I just load ceramics and metals or is chiral crystals easier
>>736884093jesus christ, never the former, only the latter. chiral bucks are way easier to stockpile.
>>736884093The game shits out chiral crystals especially the further into the game you go so yeah
So there's no DS3? This makes it seem like the entire cast is dead, and they'll maybe shit out a side-game by another studio - but probably won't. It's just the end, with a tease for more. More of a nudge nudge wink wink.
>>736884536What the hell are you talking about
I just love the combat so fucking much bros.
>>736778189Kojima is at his best when there's a competent higher up on his shoulder telling him "stfu that's retarded, remove this part and rewrite that part. It's garbage"The moment he got full creative control he made two absolutely abysmal games,I honestly would overdose on my own farts too if I got treated like the Scorsese of games and taking credits for other people's work.Also his western celebrity worship makes things worse, he wants to be a movie director so bad but he's so hilariously ill equipped for it that I hope he gets to do it one day, the ridicule and shit he'll get will probably humble him and make him realize he's at his best when he's on a leash and working with other people who know their stuffHis best game will come out when he realize he has good starting ideas but awful execution and he needs help.
>>736884536>So there's no DS3?I think Kojima said that 2 was the last Death Stranding (that he'd make) but I could be wrong
>>736884536>>736888438Hideo Kojima stated he would not direct DS3 but would love it if another developer stepped in
>>736888532And just like Metal Gear, without Kojima, nobody will care about it.
>>736888815If Survive was a stealth-action game people would care about it. And if you turned DS into a survival horror nobody would care about it even with Kojima as a director. And MGS remakes did fine so people aren't upset with Konami as a company.
