>>744587719Have you tried embracing the qmeter and making them infight with qmorphs?
>>744587948That's the thing: they're fucking immune to it. Not a single fucking one has burst.
>get a fucking heretic blueprint>almost beat the mission>get a gut wound>starve to death because it wouldn't heal after like 5 healing attempts
>>744587145So is this game like Caves of Qud, but with better graphics?
>>744588134Somewhat similar moment to moment gameplay but very different progression since it's an extraction shooter.
>hate extraction games>hate time limits>both are actually ok when the game is turn-basedIt really is that simple
>>744588196I'm the same with extraction games but I actually liked Road to Vostok as well, and that's basically just singleplayer Tarkov. I think I just don't like multiplayer extraction games because I'll be randomly dunked on by a guy with 5k hours in the game.

What are good factions to join and to oppose?
>>744588965Only thing that matters is opposing the bootlickers that try to bring back sovereign governments *spit*
>>744588965Coincidentally I just made a list for thisIcons I used if anyone wants to make their ownhttps://gofile.io/d/qceVoD
>>744587145what's an easy way to get a bunch of mats to make grenades? feels like bunch of my runs would go much smoother if I could give everyone at least three nades in their inventory
>>744587145>essence>power>stabilityWhat are these stats? Never seen them in early access
I should've done this from the start.GO MY INTERDIMENSIONAL ARACHNIDS!
jesus christ they really nerfed the hell out of disassembling, i'm not getting dick from anythingand also repair kits take way more shit to makei like the way this sucks
>>744589453There's an upgrade for that now.

So what's the endgame here? Planet hopping until I brick my game?
Can any quasimorph savvy anon give me tips to general play? I'm getting the impression travelling around is a huge meme

>>744589850Fuck you
>>744589752Corps get stronger over time so traveling long distances can lead to all missions being very hard (but rewards also scale). Stick to mars early game and then go to venus or mercury later.

>>744587145did the people's front armor get changed? I remember liking the helmet because it reminded me of the goons from Brigador.A shame most of the helmets are "angry face" in terms of looks.
Well fucki think that's everyone
>>744590195Not really. You can unlock new bramfaturas but that’s done through quests. There’s also an endless mode but I haven’t unlocked it yet. I think they intended the pacts to be the real endgame, with that whole complex crafting system and tons of variations, but most people don’t use them at all.
>>744590084Earth is a nootrol zone so it's rare for a fight to come up there.
>>744587609>all the factions that manufacture work clothes are at best at trade break and at worst mortal enemiesI NEED WORK CLOTHES AHHHHHHHHHHH
Note 1. A baron can spawnNote 2. ALL THESE FUCKERS SPAWN WHEN YOU ENTER THIS ROOMHOLY FUCK
>>744588267PVE tarkov is single player tarkov. Vostok is more of a fps roguelite (that's a good thing), sure it borrows some mechanics from tarkov but the game loop is entirely different
>>744590826Okay, that was significantly better. They can't quasimorph, but you can spawn an infinite army of spiders for them to kill each other with. If it weren't for the baron, I would've made it
>>744587145Fully upgraded recycling outputs twice as many resources (+some weird, unreleated freebies when you recycle huge amount). Infinite ammunition. Infinite missiles. Fuck, it's awesome.
>>744590694>Unlock bramfaturasReally? Which ones?
How does the currency reward work for missions? Is it not currency and instead research progress on their tech tree or something?
>>744591380when you go to trade with the corporation youll have credit with them without having to sell anything
>>744591431Thanks, I guess I just hadn't stumbled upon one of the guys I completed mission for just yet.
>>744591352Saturn and Mars
>>744590804Uhh use your miner faction ties bro?
>>744587145Is a motherfucking escort mission really the only new mission type that has been added compared to early access? There are still only 2 mission types in the game, standing still for 50 rounds or going down an elevator for multiple levels. There's so much potential for different shit what are those russian fucks doing?
>>744591704as soon as i get the armor and weapon case i need to take over a minor faction i'm going for coreward solely to get work clothes
is it even possible for the xenomorph faction to not be the top corpo dog?
>>744591808i miss when satelite defence took place on 1 level with 3 satelitesi dont want to have to go down for them
>>744592105Yes but it's hard, they're hyper expansionist
>>744590913how to spider?
>>744592105Yes, and it isn't as hard as >>744592228 says. Just target them in defense missions whenever you see them on the planet you're obriting, it's enough to slow them down.
Sell me on this game. It looks. Cool but I have no idea what's happening.
Hmm... After the initial excitement and testing few things out, it seems that there are certain limitations on what you can recycle and that makes it less broken.For example, most medicine is a no-go. Turret cycling requires a LOT of time, but at least now the "turret class" makes sense and is viable. But regardless, in my opinion recycling is the most important upgrade as it enables both a decent bounce-back mechanic and enables playing a lot of resource intensive classes that I considered shit (for example, the indirectly aforementioned "Tilfton's Elite" class that can edge deployables like turrets or "Martian Mech Inf" class that edges advantages of implants, As before if you died - you were fucked since crafting all those implants again was unreal).I know I'm not particularly gifted in conveying information, but I REALLY ADVISE rushing and maxing out recycling upgrades for ship asap, as it fills so many apparent holes in game's ecology and opens up so many options. At the very least, it "solves" the awkward situation were you have to go to missions naked to scrape gear.
before i commit to the grenade launcher, can anyone tell me if you have control over what grenade goes in and comes out in order
>>744592380Story pact. Unbreakble, so you keep it even when you die. Perfect for isabella
>>744592651You take a mission, you go in, you try to complete it, you get to bring back anything you loot but you lose anything you brought in if you die. Also there are extradimensional monsters invading reality.
>>744592750who's story? i thought there were multiple storylinesnot that i've started a single one yet
THIS IS THE THIRD CLASS CHIP FOR A CLASS I ALREADY HAVE IN A ROW I'VE GOTTEN AS A REWARD!
>>744590905I guess, I haven't played that much tarkov so I don't have a great frame of reference
>>744593082You will later cry because you can't get those spare chips fast enough and you'll need a lot of them. Muahaha.
>>744589182The way I do it was always early game kneecap the Hexarchs as much as possible without actively tanking my rep with them into the deep negatives. This way they are scrambled in the midgame and easier to manage while you upgrade the Magnum. I've played a whole game with Realware being less powerful than the Civil Resistance on paper. I also actively empower the Civil Resistance since they can be a good stonewall for the Hexarchs if they get some steam, but they almost always have fizzled out unless given constant support
>>744593082Spare chips are needed for class modding anyway.
>>744589453The disassembler is how you get a good amount of materials now. Stockpile everything until you have it unlocked and upgraded then you'll be set.
>>744589752Rush the monitor upgrade in communications. This allows you to scan for additional missions in planets. If you do travel try to stay in a region. Just jump between locales until something generates rather then spending a month in transit to a new region.
seriously, what the fuck is this horseshit?i make it all this fucking way, sacrificing every one of my trained boys with their expensive gear and this endless fucking horde appearswhy?what the fuck kind of balancing idea is this?it's not a case of the floor being alerted: i killed literally everyone the last attempt and this happenedfuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
>mission going well>q-meter maxes out despite me chainsmoking>sultan spawns>oneshots me with his laser handI'm going back to mars
>>744594187Every mission you should try to rush the objective as fast as possible killing only who you need too. Also when stealthing a floor are you locking doors behind you? I always lock doors when proceeding through a level so enemies movement is restricted and I don't have mobs close in from behind.
>>744594410Q-Meter ideally needs to be managed while its low. Quasis being present and killing enemies causes it to rise exponentially. Real fun thing to do with it is spike it very high then chainsmoke and drink and all Quasis will despawn once it hits 0 so you can preclear a level without a Baron spawning. You just have to have the consumables for it.
>>744594443No, that's not how this works. The horde spawns in when you get to this room and the message appears.
>>744594578Oh story mission? I don't play those until the magnum is fully upgraded and I got some of the late game weapons. I'd recommend putting them off.
>>744594671it's the only way to get the teleportation engine
Almost got my ass kicked by a sex bot
>>744587145Is the Dev's "vision" for the game really that any mission type that has a significant amount of NPCs will hit almost 600 ratings the whole floor exploding into monsters as soon as you start shooting at enemies?And then you are suppose to complete 3 more floors, potentially having the boss spawn before you can even get to the last floor?
>>744594807Why are you rushing the teleportation engine so early? I genuinely don't have a problem with managing corpo power in the early to mid game as long as you don't move around to much. I don't travel beyond mars until the late game and stay in the cores.
This looks like it might be good on the 'eck but these autistic devs never add controller support or UI scaling
>>744595369Stealth the first 3 floors as much as possible. Lock doors behind you. Bring drugs to keep Q-Meter low for what unavoidable encounters you may have. Avoid 4 floor missions in general unless you absolutely need credit and/or rep bonus with said contract poster.
>>744595543There used to be a mod that made the score trend slowly downwards instead of up so that demon holocausts didn't happen unless you started really fucking shit upI kind of see now why it was made
>>744594410>Take two smokes>AddictedWhat no regulation does to cigarettes.
i am legitimately tempted to cheat just to get this over with, holy shit
>another top tier merc lost because I pressed left click instead of right click to close a doorWHY DID YOU MAKE IT SO RETARDEDIF I'M CROUCHING IT'S A FREE ACTION I'D RATHER CLOSE THE DOOR BY MISTAKE TO REOPEN IT THAN TAKE A STEP FORWARD
on my last mission on mars and I think I'm not gonna like the game very much when I move to a planet with quasimorphosis, I like going through every corner of the maps killing everything
>>744596493btw where should I go now? mercury?
>>744596493Eh. Quasimorphosis can actually help you lategame. They're signiifcantly squishier than heavily geared mercs. They kill them even. And as anon said before, you can just raise quasimorphosis and take a ton of drugs to go to zero, banishing them. Thus killing everyone without doing a thing
I cheated, and I'm ashamed of myself, but I was already alt-f4ing so i may as well have
>>744590028it could be worse, like a quasimorph forms far far away from your vision then runs around like a headless chicken through out a giant map and wont allow you to complete until its done
>>744588267vostok is shit
>>744596551Earth's satellites and Venus & its satellites. Do a checklist:- Have scanner upgrade that unlocks missions- Have crafting upgrade so that you can replace gear faster- Have recycler upgrade so that you do not starve for resourcesQuasirape meter isn't really that big of a problem if you hunt mission objectives and do not linger. Once you get recycler going, you shouldn't go around picking trash anyway and should mostly haul additional firepower (which is also good for recycling).

This is getting fun. Sneakcels are spreading fake news.
>>744597676the only sneaking in this game is running to the elevatorenemies get too bunched up in groups and aware of what's going on as the game goes
>>744597676Don't listen to him. It's big shotgun propaganda.
I just discovered the power of sneak, seriously a whole new third eye opened up to me when I discovered that you can sense enemies through walls
>>744596154Strongest fags since deus ex

>>744598602They're trying to steal the semen samples of your clones so they can manufacture their own
>>744598602Are these things good?
>>744598676
i accidentally called for an emergency extraction before I completed the mission objectivecan I just complete the mission anyways or will it still count as a failure?
>>744598715They're ok, they squeeze real tight but their molding is simplistic and they've only got like 3 personality presets.

THE WORLD IS ABOUT TO CHANGE
>>744588267Maybe try out a game called Project Silverfish. Yeah yeah I know its furry but its a pretty good STALKER extraction shooter
>>744590694Endless mode? Isn't the game already endless? What would endless mode change?

>>744601232yes yesyou played early access
>>744601309and I'll do it again
Is heavy armor a trap in this game early? I got to around 20kg as melee percy and while I tanked a lot of damage, the million of wounds I got chewed through so much medkits, bandages and splints in the 4 floor mission I went through. Was close to dying on the last floor since the civ guys do not drop much plastic to heal fractures their guns do. And that was with just tech 1 civil resistance mobs.
Oh nice implants have blueprints too>cortex bombWhat did they mean by this?
>Kcal/weightdoes decreasing this increase the amount of energy you use when carrying a lot of weight, or increase it? I can imagine in both ways>>744601442for melee you really want dodge, or light armor at most. and you can't really carry much because it slows you down and reduces your dodge. I think mid/late game you can get heavy armor that works for melee though
>Died losing literally all of my good gear after completing the mission>Got a fucking sex bot as a reward>Still don't have the recipe for 7.92 ammoShould I just start over?

>>744602053>>744601885I died two seconds later to a ultra assfucker marine. Thank god for the Capsule.
>>744601675Im playing as percy so i dont really need to stack much armor Even at around 50-60% dr from the heavy armor i still took a lot of chip damage from the T1 guns because the game does not have flat damage resists, at least not in early game
>>744601897probably nohad a 3 floor defense mission where i smoked 4 full packs of cigs and two shots of morphine and still finished with like 700 qmeterhad to chase down the last couple motherfuckers hiding in a broom closet on the other side of the planetthe last floor tends to spiral REAL fast

>>744603770I was able to use plastic, rags, and such on the VIP but not medkits. And since he had burns I couldn't really stop the damage.Got him to the destination but the faggot keeled over as I was making my way to the station causing me to fail.

I wish there was a button I could hold to one click disassemble things.

Thanks for all those samples

>>744587145This is weird.
Any tips for survival missions? I have to survive 80 turns on this one and I'm not sure if I should bother going down to the second floor or not. I'm tempted to stay on the first one if I can just because it's scanned.
Tunnel Rat is best class by far. Change my mindyou can't lol
>>744607556if you are disassembling stuff on the ship you should just save that till you unlock the recycler because it gives much better chances for materials
>>744607817I'm doing it mid mission, I rarely bring back stuff I wanna disassemble

defence missions are bugged, for the second time in a row I tried to do a defence misson with a powerlevel of 700 and the enemies spawned in endless hords with tons of endgame guns, also the open map design where everyone just surrounds you is also cancerI remember doing defence missions in early acces and they weren't close as hard as this
>>744608253brother come on lol yeah check out the image in the OP and you see the red recycle icon in the inventory? that button disassembles all items in the corpse's inventoryalso the ammo so be careful if you need ammo and unload that first
Implants don't even feel worth using at least in early game, benefits barely outweigh the negatives but then you need some weird shit to repair injuries if they target that body part
>>744608549I think there's a ship upgrade that reduces the health penalties you get from them which helps. There's also a class focused around them.
>>744607796Whether it is or not it's my favorite

Is rubber a rare material now? Can't find this shit anywhere. Got lucky with a backpack blueprint on the first mission, but haven't been able to make any because I can't find any fucking rubber, despite disassembling everything I get my hands on (that I don't immediately need)
>>744608457How far in are you? Their tech level doesn't really get counted in the powerlevel I think, that's mostly like how many and how well equipped they are. also sometimes missions are just fucked, I dunno if it's a bug or if you just get faulty intel sometimes, since the whole game is about people lying to each other and fucking everything up
>>744609245Yeah it's hard to find, scientist scrubs have it if you disassemble them
When do I leave Mars? I am waiting days at a time for missions to pop up.

>>744609723you can give them medical supplies i assume they heal themselves
>>744609691Whenever you have the balls to do it. Other planets have more active quasimorphosis but aren't necessarily harder outside of that, although companies will get stronger while you travel between planets.

>>744587145Hey hey people
Do I travel 24 days to Venus or that's too long and I'm instantly soft locked by everyone progressing too much in that time?
>>744609905Only missing the merc chain smoking 3 packs of cigarettes and downing 2 bottles of vodka while popping pills
>>744610039its been like three years since that video most people that are getting into quasimorph now probably dont even know about it
>>744610212You can do it. 24 days isn't that long, just don't travel back and forth too much.
>get rad poisoned bad>try to mediate it with a bottle of alcohol I found on the floor>instantly addictedbeat the mission anyway, fuck you game
>>744610212from what i can tell whenever there's an event, it has like 50 days until resolved. and corps only lose/gain power at the end of those. so couple 20 day travels here and there should be nothing
>first death on a fully kitted character>closed to game and don't feel like playing anymoreI don't like this format
>beaten to death by a horde of sex robots because my grenade bounced the wrong wayfuck this game
>>744610823That's why upgrading your ship is so important. Makes it way easier to bounce back from a major loss.
can I somehow remove that implant from corpse?

>>744598715Unironically the fuckbot head is a pretty good augment
what the fuck is the point of armor with no blunt resistance?it's the most common goddamn damage type
>>744611745It is by no means the most dangerous. Most often you die from high-caliber bullets that deal piercing damage.
>>744611745Because the main source of that blunt damage is 9mm bullets (harmless)
>>744610212as long as you're not going to fucking jupiter or venus don't worry about travel time. after about tech level 3 the points required to tech up start drastically increasing.
I just gort my first class unlock: Valkyrie.Whose this shit good with from the first 4 people?Also this is going to sound retarded, but are all these perks active? Game doesn't explain shit, which I'm mostly fine with except when "doesn't explain shit" translates to "no idea what half the UI does or where things should be". But at least they're improving the trade menu soon.
>>744588843Start a new save, dummy
>>744612058you can look in the class selection and hover over the icons to see how each perk activatesif it doesnt have an activation trigger that means its passive
>>744602923Nonsense, there's dead guys lying all over the place.
>>744610248That's what they seasoned the meat with
>>744612058perks activate when their trigger happensstuff like>successfully dodge an attack>get hit by any attack>kill an enemy>fire last bullet in a magThey also cost calories when they activate and have cooldowns.
>>744612401Not what I'm referring to. If you take certain head or stomach wounds it prevents you from eating food. Or pills. Which severely limits your recovery options.
>>744609791They would. even enemies scavenge my discarded rags because they think they can patch up with it or something.
>>744609905Doesn't the civil resistance do some yang gang shit which is why colnodes don't ecolapse?
>>744612043>as long as you're not going to fucking jupiter or venusbut I went to Venus
>Elimination mission>Sneaky around getting to floor three relatively easy>Target is guarded by two vanguard mechs or whatever the fuck>Burst me from across the room taking me down to 1 AP>I can burst one down but the second one ends my lifeFug. And I even had an acid ambush set up for them but those fuckers just dashed across the hall in a turn.
>>744611207it just have to be logically sharp, like stabby knives still work and even the shovel works even though it's a blunt damage weapon.
>>744608549You'll find implants later that do insane shit like generate shields and shoot lasers out of your dick, you'll want them, and with the implant lab upgrades you can cancel out some of the negative effects. The early game ones are mostly garbage parts from random robots. The military (warhead class) robots have some neat parts though, the hands add an extra shot to your burst fires which can be extremely strong and the other parts are heavily armored. The sexbot has some decent parts as well
>>744611565just craft another for the missionit's not asking for unique ingredients

>>744607162Sneaking and drug abuse.
>>744607796Scouts of Hades is just too versatile the dodge bonus is insane early game too and I've had Barons straight up wiff hits and shots for 5 to 6 turns while that Dodge Buff was active.

>>744614225It is built as a babby class with lots of survivablity and all rounder gear compatibility.
>>744614225>>744614593I prefer TongKong
>>744614297Send in a phoenix squad guy
>>744614297the ancom one on venus? you don't, it's like a fucking late-game mission. this is post-nerf btw, the realware mercs used to have better gear.
>>744614642It's also pretty durable but it's got a weird kit on the offense side unlike scout which is just more accurate, more damage.
>>744614820The piercing on SMG/AR is insane DPS.
>>744614981I'd prefer my bullets actually land first but if you've got some guy's base accuracy or a matching modded weapon then sure.
>>744615295You don't always have that luxury. TongKong holds down hallways with ease and it has big dodge chance and pain res. It's all upsides. If you're running an AR/SMG it's easily the choice.
The commies reassume their rightful place. As corpses at my fucking feet.

>>744617248send down isabela as a blade with a knife and then go shank someone and steal their clothesthen you just keep doing that till you get geared up again
>>744617248she's good at melee and can eat humans with zero repercussions unlike everyone else, so you can send her in with basically nothing, basically zero risk, and have a decent chance of winning if you're lucky and good at taking advantage of situations. not so great against the demons though.
>>744617316yeah im surprised thats not in the difficulty optionsjust lose everything, dont lose anything or just lose backpack options
This game doesn't feel finished. Every mission is a series of repeated rooms. It's common to see the the same room three times on the same floor, multiple times a floorIf you're gonna proc gen abuse and make maps nonsensical mazes at least have some fucking variety

How do you actually play this game? The tutorial seemed reasonable, but I've now failed five attempts at just the first mission. I feel like I must be missing something.
>>744617248She's immune to infections which makes the basic necessities way easier to come by>food? just eat people (although you will wake up the quasis outside of absentia)>bandages? just use rags>splints? just use plasticThat makes her perfect for minimal gear runs, so you can often just toss her in with a knife and grab everything you need on the way.
>>744617578nopethats just how the game goes at first biggest tip is to not open doors with only 1 ap left because if you do that and someone is behind the door that means they get the next turn and can just blast you while you stand theresame for going around cornersits best to open the door and then use the other ap to hide behind the corner
>>744617578Prepare for everything and anything. In reality, you are going to get fucked. There is only so much you can do or carry. You have to be careful but specifically know what you're up against. Some companies have guards armored in stuff resistant to regular ballistics, some just poison, and some for energy weapons. In a way, you have to adopt the same strategy against who you're running against. The starting strat is to have Francis with an SMG firing blunt 9MM in one hand and a shredding shotgun in the other. Plus, cannibal starter Isabella you can send in with just a knife
>>744617578It can be hard when you're new. Camp corners and chokepoints, never open a door on 1ap unless you're sneaking, if you find water bring it with you for putting out fires and healing, etc.
>>744617042I've always explained it as them looting the place just like you would
>>744617578shotguns are by far the best weapon early and mid game. buckshot always hits due to it being 5 pellets and enemies have low hp and armor so unless they're 6+ tiles away they'll always either die or take enough damage to trigger pain shock
>literally find ten times better gear from another PMCs that were guarding my target than what I can get normaly
>>744617578If you find yourself in trouble, take the time to look around and make a plan if possible. Examine enemies to see their speed, that's how many actions they can take (movement or attack), same as you. So for example, if a melee enemy is two squares away from you and has two speed, you can ignore him this turn to shoot his friend with the gun, then take care of him next round when he'll be standing right next to you.When you have good cover, it can be very strong to switch to sprinting. Step out, fire, step back into cover. Repeat as necessary.It's almost always worth "wasting" ammo to guarantee a kill, by firing in full auto when a single shot would kill them IF it hits. You can get fucked by missing and leaving someone alive. Examine enemies and see their wounds. If they're hurt bad enough, you can just take cover to reload and they'll die before they can reach you, or just pass out from the pain and bleed out by themselves.also, even if you do everything right, it's possible to just get fucked in the ass sometimes. But you can maximize your odds by planning well what equipment to bring (for example, armor that's good against the damage types an enemy faction uses) and gitting gud at the ingame tactics and calculations.
>>744617973I love that AR, it's sfx are so good
>mfw I haven't unlocked capsules yet
I haven't touched the game in a long time. Last I did, the cannibal merc was the easiest. What's the skinny on the game now? Might should reinstall
>>744617446right, uhjust drop out of the hyperdimensiondon't delve into hell
>>744618153and of course I didn't have to fight any PMCs because game decided to make both floors to be giant fucking mazes so when I got to target with 600+ morph points those monsters already killed everyone

would be nice if you can recover your turrets/drones (can you?). Then, it would be a legitimate build.

>>744618890No, you can't. Would be nice if you could yeah, maybe a class that has the special ability to do so (but the turret is still limited because it needs ammo)
getting my ass kicked on normal should i just go to easy?
>>744619310as long as you can still kill with just a pistol, it's fine. You will die. a lot of unfair ways too. It's all about how your ship is upgraded.
>30-50% crit chance and 50-80% crit damage for 5-8 turns when spotting an enemy>stun 1-3 enemies for 1-2 turns on crithow is tunnel rats not completely fucking busted? these 2 perks alone are insane but then you got the perks for extra loot and shotgun damage as well.
>>744619374recommended path of upgrade?
>>744619310But make sure to have fun! The game has customizable difficulty so make use of it.
>>744619551the best is getting weapon and armor chips and upgrading those. This is a bit mid-late game, since you need to actually FIND the chips before you can upgrade the items.Upgrading your mercs DNA is also great.Early game upgrade to get a capsule and more storage space.
>>744619551Mission generator, scavenger squad, cargo capsules, and map scanner are IMO the biggest early impact, since they help you get more resources in less time (both in game and for the player) and thus get the other ship upgrades faster. The map scan also massively reduces the need for food, anti-quasimorph drugs, ammo, etc, since you can find the elevator in a fraction of the time and not spend a hundred turns just to reach a dead end.
>>744619629Noone ever says>Go for comms or research stations to get chipsIs there an in-game list somewhere I can check for what to expect?
What does the +200 reward points navigation upgrade do?
>>744620167Better mission rewards.
just discovered this game does not have pity rolls after missing 7 (seven) times with a 40% hit chance
>>744620095nta but it’s a fool’s errand to try and force specific upgrades. The only thing I look out for is all the materials leading up to the management unit and horde those until I have everything before spending the excess. You’ll get what you need as you go.
>>744620167I guess missions you generate would reward +200 on completion? I think when you get rewarded they roll from the allowed pool by tech level and relation until reward point worth of goods have been awarded and any points not allotted into items becomes corpo credit.
>>744620515It's also based on their current production iirc, which is why you get shit like loads of a single item early on
>>744620454Not forcing but at least upping your chances in an RNG-based game. I ended up getting stellar loot on Comms and factory stations in my current run. I'll still probably end it mid game when I get rekt by an MG spray or a rogue disc beheading.
>>744620421It has anti pity rolls. if you hit too much then a demon breaks your clone bay.
oh baby
>>744614225I really like when games make the starting class well rounded instead of shit. The satiety reduction and dodge chance alone make Scouts such a great choice of the bat. The initial class should be well rounded, and then the added classes are niche, but more powerful. I cannot stand when a game gives you a starting class and its just abject shit and any other choice down the road is an unquestionable upgrade.I really love this game, even though I play it a bit odd. I never trade. I never try to boost up rep with a corp. Idc about pacts. I just do missions & story missions. I just really dig the base gameplay and dynamism
>>744621075Oh baby!
>>744617535got em
What kind of mission is this clone good for? 4 floor on the heavy quasimorph planets?
Finally started using Victoria a bit and she's pretty fun, albeit you need levels with long corridors or open spaces. If you wanna try the sniper lifestyle do some missions for grasshopper, they've got a bolt action sniper in their tech 1 tier
>>744621461Pretty much, she and the guy that has reduced quasi buildup are the best suited for dragged out missions outside absentia
>>744621075>>744621243I'm jelly
>>744617712>>744617716>>744617719>>744617920>>744618069I can't really plan or prepare anything. I start each time with the default gear, trudge slowly through the same fucking map until I run into a group big enough to kill me.Nearly four hours in, still beating my head against mission one. Maybe this just isn't for me.
>>744621615One of the biggest tips I can give you is to never turn corners or open doors unless you have two or more AP. If you keep getting killed this early you must be giving guys too many chances to shoot at you. Play corners and doorways and let the enemies come to you.
>filled up all my armor/weapon mod slotswtf is there a way to delete old ones? spent way too much modifying my basic shit to be decent, but I have much better blueprints now to work with.
>>744621615Maybe try using the custom difficulty options to make it easier if you want. It's not a run and gun game, it's a slow and thoughtful one.
>>744621461I'm >>744614293 and this bitch is single handedly saving my run right now
Strange class, but the increased status chance seems really good
>>744621784yeah I've never used it raw but I could see using that perk

yep, it's gaming time
>>744621937based super shotgun axeman with his turret buddy on standby
oh hell yeah finally>>744621546Prioritize stock market items. They're needed to upgrade your ship. Before you'll know it, you'll be very kitted out.
>>744621615Are you not salvaging rags and plastic to cure injuries with? Rags fix bleeding and plastic cures fractures. Make sorbent for free on the ships and always bring 10 to every mission. Also keep water or soda on you to extinguish fires if you get lit up, beer and liquor can't extinguish fires though.
>>744622038fuck yeah that AP ammo carries hard
If only I actually had a company under my control. Thinking about sunlight coven.
>>744621710Deplete the mod level of a project to zero I think
>>744621937Based, I go for the same loadout if I give the secret data to Realware.It hurts when you lose it.
It took me way too long to realize the big number on armors is just the sum of all the different types of protections the armor gives. You could wear an armor with a rating of 300 and get oneshot by basic enemies because the armor had 100 in fire, frost and radiation protection but 0 in blunt or laceration.
I've been trading for class chips and not a single one has been tunnel runner. I did get the edgy pact one though.
>>744622038>>744621546>>744621243yeah thats nice and all but which missions? I've been thinking to avoid any defence ones because all the shelfs have little items on them
>>744622519Why is this game so obtuse and misleading...
>>744622519damn you're late>>744622572What are you talking about? Defense is great because normal ass mooks can carry ship upgrade parts or missing armor pieces. Free loot coming to you, if you can kill them at least.
>>744622542“Pity unlocks” is a good mod for this if you are a weenie.
>>744622696NTA but I've never had a defense mission where I didn't need to scour every corner of the map looking for the last few enemies. Only a few actually come to the object you're defending, the rest just stand still.
>>744622408I will grind Realware until they'll start giving me those backpacks because they are so goated
>>744622802I haven't had that problem since really early in EA but maybe I tend to make more noise than you do.
Send my regards
>>744588186>>744588196It's not an extraction shooter. Extraction themed maybe. Extraction shooter is fundamentally a racing game.

WTF am I supposed to do there are three of them and I only have 2 bullets
>>744623568get behind the desk and shoot the door until they come to you
>>744623382On Mars it’s free food. You can cook meat by dropping a stack next to a barrel and exploding it. Bones can be used as bladed weapons to butcher. If you hold onto your empty cans you can also turn them back into canned meat at a cooking station.
>>744623382Ears and eyes are used by the pact system. Heart I believe is used in at least the sang-b recipe but it's perishable so you'd need the freezer. Poo is used for booze. If it's an augmented limb you can possibly take it and if there's an implant you can possibly extract it
>>744623623that would've been a good idea. Instead this guy just tanked three point blank full auto bursts and cut my head off with one swing
>>744623648Human meat is also a good way of forcing Baron spawns, ie be at 800 quasimorphsis, go to an already empty floor, eat two meats and fight the Baron on your terms.
>>744623560It plays like a traditional roguelike mixed with doom or something, you are a group of juiced up space mercs who go on missions, kill everyone, take as much shit as you can carry home and then do it all over again. There are alien demons who start spawning into our universe whenever people like you do massacres, cannibalism, etc, so during missions shit gets out of control and the violence snowballs into a total shitfest super fast. It's really rewarding and enjoyable to play and has a really fun difficulty curve.The game is fun enough to play just based on that shit alone, but in the midgame you can totally customize any character, character class or piece of gear you can craft to make insane super soldiers who have amazing skillsets that all combo together and equip them with customized guns that reload really fast, do more damage, fire custom ammo, etc etc.The game's fun as shit.
Can I not repack turretbuddies again?
>>744623269POV: you are Percy Fawcett three floors and 500 q-morphosis into a mission on Venus
>>744623754lol ripthose quasis are bastards. don't hesitate to check their armor types, some are really resistant to certain types
>>744623839Not that I'm aware of, but you can chop them for parts if they die.
>>744623051It's ok anon I've been there too
>>744623269So this is how colnodes are made
>>744624049yep lol
>>744623697I just throw hearts at people since they function like a really shit grenade
>>744623837upgrading the items is kind of a slog. the higher tier items take so many fucking green chips and shit.
>stash some good ol' cheeseburgers>next mission>they spoiledWTH
>>744624117in the last run I was playing before this new patch I eventually had so many duplicates that I didn't have any issues juicing up my best rifle and that set of high level armor the church wears. At a certain point I was farming chips from the corp I owned, and had so many barter points coming in per mission that I could always buy a few chips every time. I haven't put in many hours since 1.0 dropped though so I'm not sure how easy or hard it is to get to that level now.
do I get to keep the shit I get from Robbery missions? And if not can I keep them if I evac early with a chip?
losing 2 mission back to back on the way to elevator extraction is just brutal -_-, almost makes you want to just start a new savefile
>>744624375You just know the cargo hold be smelling crazy in there
>>744624253these sweet lootboxes are underrated
>>744624393you have to give over the quota, the game sometimes spawns extras copies of the required resource and you get to keep those if you take them.
>>744624393you dont keep the stuff you need for extraction but if you take extra you will keep that ive only done a few robberies but usually theres 2-3 extra units in the entire stage for you to keep
>>744624375Check the use by date on the item before throwing it in long term storage.
Has anyone gotten anything valuable from breaking the wooden crates? I don’t normally carry a melee weapon and don’t want to be bothered switching to one if it’s not worth bashing.
>>744624397The most painful thing about new save files is that it resets the ship, that's the worst grind.
>>744624481Got something mildly useful once or twice but I'm talking like a bag of chips. Don't bother if you're not already walking around with a melee weapon
>>744624481I remember getting something cool from one ages ago but I can't be bothered running around smashing everything with a crowbar.
>>744624481everyone Ive tried 20+ has been empty so i stopped
>>744623871Percy doesn't need mods for thathe loves this shit
Fun fact. Implanted weapons don't suffer durability loss. Jacques+plus infinite ammo pact+ judge arm can get really silly.Also, you can cut your own limbs off if you use a baron transformation pact, and dying just forces you back to human. Great way to farm some of those insane quasi implants.
>leave Mars>fail every mission with demons>lose all my good shitfuck this I'm going home
>>744624671>turn yourself into a demon baron>get demon augmented limbs for free>cut them off to use laterI love this game lol
>rush first sinkhole oasis mission>now I'm running around with almost full legend armor while factions are only tier 2-3I'm basically immune to bullets, only thing that might hurt me is frost
>>744625020based, don't go up against daydream and you should be alright
>Survive until the last turn>drug addicted from using morphine>miss two full auto AP round bursts contact>get stunlocked to deathAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH
So how do stealth work? Does the sneak mode actually make the enemies less likely to detect you? So far I've been sneaking to detect them, and then rushing in with walk or run to get as much AP surprise shots as possible.
>63 painwhat does that feel like
>>744625308>Does the sneak mode actually make the enemies less likely to detect you?no, you're using it right
>>744624770Mars, home...
>>744625475probably hurts
>>744624823I was also almost brought to the point of having to cut my limbs off to eat them once.
>>744625308Enemies can have a hard time noticing you sometimes but it feels somewhat random. The main advantage of stealth mode is seeing through walls. I do wish stealth was more consistent.
>>744625475It would be extremely painful
>>744625687being able to heal fractures in four minutes makes a body hungry as fuck lol
>>744625759> I do wish stealth was more consistent.enemies notice you when you end your turn in their vision, it's not complicated or inconsistent at all.
if you're just starting out, I don't recommend going against Coreward MG or Tianming. Even Civil Resistance is probably something you should avoid unless you're sure you can get a drop on them. One fucking hit from a saw launcher and you spend the rest of the mission as a bleeding amputee.
>>744625759I do know there are some perks that allow you to crit people who haven't detected you and so on
>>744625897Jan straight up ignores enemy armor when he's undetected.
>>744625956sick
>pump shotgun>shoot>reload>shoot>reload>shoot>reload
>>744625865What about sneaking up from behind them?
>>744624481>>744624537>>744624557>>744624563I noticed that when I broke a crate one time the items flew out onto the floor instead of staying in the broken crate.
>>744624770yeah samethere was only 3 missions in mars and the moons so i figured i would head over to earth and try a mission there and instantly got fucked
>>744626089>+40% shotgun damage from tunnel rats reinforced ammo>+65% damage from tongkong last bullet>have choice between buckshot, flechette, exploding, and slug for any enemy armor typeshotgunGODS run this game
>>744626676jhammer c22 is the best gun in the game. collimator with a shotgun with low spread...actually insane. Soon as i get a chip for it i think i'll make a shotgun focused custom class for my new giga percy
Any consistent way to get lots of explosives, the crafting item? I need lots of grenades but these are the bottleneck. I know I can get some by recycling mines, but that's all I've found.
>>744627191If you find a station that sells em, try giving it to your proxy? Iirc they get a huge production boost. I mostly use thermals for my grenades for that exact reason
>Escort mission>Escort gets a self healing scratch through his tier 4 heavy armour>Infected>Can't use my sorbent on him>He won't use it from his inventory >DeadAfter years of early access, the 1.0 release ladies and gentlemen.
>>744627512he knows sorbent is a placebo.
Tons of fucking trading to get my poorly developed item chips.Also, the station around earth is absent quasimorphosis?
ayo
>>744626106The only form of stealth while having LOS is having a higher sight range and staying outside of their max.
>portable coveroh shit. feel like this would be really good against that nigga urparp
>>744627191Realware usually gives you shit loads of grenades when you do jobs for them
>>744628543It being two slots is pretty sad.
>>744628543Probably really useful in later missions when a bad laser/cryo/fire hit is a huge problem
If I use Monitoring, would that still generate a mission on a red area like here?
STOPGIVINGMETHIS SHITI WILL NEVER USE MELEE FUCK OFF
>>744629132break 'em down into parts in your recycler
>>744629132>bro does not shotgod melee second weapon chadngmi
>>744629132>Local man refuses to stop picking up trash
>>744629471*gets sniped from 10 tiles away*
>>744617248Isabella is really good for farming dicey missions that you want to get gear from but don't want to risk better operators or equipment. Send her in grab some gear dump it in the shuttle and capsule then either actually try and complete the mission or go on a sucide charge then restart with a better operator.
>>744617316Eh static stations could work but reinforcements should increase the defenders to make re-entry harder. Though I never run anything truly rare until I have the chip for it. So all losses are normally easily absorbed past the early game.
>>744624770after Mars, go Venus. Then Mercury.
>>744624375I always priortize eating perishable foods over non perishables then store those and always take perishable ones on missions.
>>744629494THEY ARE QUEST REWARDS YOU STUPID NIGGER
>>744624770Getting good in Quasimorph is realizing Mars is harder late game and you can use the Braumfuturas as a crutch if you know their strengths and weaknesses.
>>744624375I have never seen an unspoiled burger, I didn't even know you could find them
>>744629627>Though I never run anything truly rare until I have the chip for it.why? You just like looking at it in your stash? I will never understand people that do this shit.
>>744630048I've gotten them out of vending machines
For a game that spent so long in EA they sure couldn't be bothered making more than a handful of rooms for each tileset. 10 hours in and these are getting repetitive as fuck
how does the trade shuttle work, if I want a specific item from the planet, do I only load items that specific station wants or do I load everything every station on that planet wants and hopes it rolls well?
>>744630717This game has some of the most satisfying groups kills in any game like this I've ever played.
So if I do the defense mission will it be 4000 power concentration spread across 88 turns of hell?
>>744630846>>744630882Yeah. Bring a ton of ammo, multiple turrets if you have them. You don't have to bring drugs/booze to counter quasimorphosis as it doesn't increase on defense missions, but without humans to scavenge ammo from you're going to need to bring a lot. Tez units do drop quasi ammo, but not super often. Those big lizard bastards and spiders can be a fucking pain in the ass so don't forget your medical shit either.
>>744630882It says 570 right there baka
>>744630951>>744630882Ah. Fuck that then tbqh. I'm struggling to comfortably enter midgame. I'm only scraping by. Really glad I stacked medkits. >>744630991Yeah but isn't that the Dilthey power level? Which means I won't even get some shitty green dudes to kill a couple strays? I could go in with a robot army and try it but desu I can't say I think I'll win.
>>744630882Concentration of power is basically difficulty, the higher it is the more and better enemies will be.
>>744631060Yeah they just list it on a weird side of things. They should just have an overall threat tally. It's fucked that I can sign up for the 1 skull 970 power mission and end up in a 5 skill 5k power mission
>>744631027>Yeah but isn't that the Dilthey power level?no
>>744631027it's the power level you'll have to face if you side with those guys
>>744631165>>744631143Oh okay. I'm gonna do it then. Should be EZ. I'll just bring one of the super shock guns and a sex bot.
if I have -1 quasimorphosis does that mean the metre doesn't go up unless I kill something?
What should I spend bio upgrades on? Nothing seems worth it, to be honest.And do class eddits swap them or add them?
>>744631487I'm not sure that I've seen it go negative, let us know what happens when you kill something.
>>744631529Max HP and dodge chance are good for upgrading your soldiers, you want them to have at least 150 max HP, maybe 200. Class edits swap out the old perk for the new one you added.
>>744630882No.If you do defense, it's 570 worth of enemies. If you do conquest, its 4000 over 4 floors(1000 per floor).
Bruh
>>744631602Relying on dodge has been a horrible mistake for me. I think I'll swap out some of the useless if below % health and weird wackass bonuses you never level up because they never trigger and aren't useful
>>744631895Molotov time
>>744632007I really like dodge, you can stack a bunch of stuff for it and it's easy to get a ton of free AP from guys missing you
>>744630501Really good lighting and tile effects though
>>744632064Like this?
>>744631858>>744631165>>744631143Mission was mindless. A green guy even survived [wish he hadn't tbqh]
God I hope someone makes a mod that overhauls the injury system because the RNG based system is just fucking stupid>have four splints>get a leg fracture>splint it>lolfuck you still injured and taking damage>splint it>lolfuck you still injured and taking damage>splint it>lolfuck you still injured and taking damage>splint it>lolfuck you still injured and taking damage>oops out of splints fuck you game over
>>744632379>A green guy even survived [wish he hadn't tbqhyou can just kill them, I don't think they ever attack you
>>744632316I don't know which perks are which by the icons, but if those grant dodge bonuses they'll be good. Just remember that weight fucks up dodge, so you'll want to store heavy loot in containers near the elevator if you've got so much shit that your dodge bonus is destroyed.
>+45% resist on medicine (morphine, first aid, ect.)>Masochism to regain AP in worst case scenarios to activate aboveI was thinking of getting lizard to raise it, but pain takes away AP.
How does difficulty work? If I pick either of 3, do they wipe away previous customizations?
>>744633431you can save a custom preset.
>losing the soldier but stopping TezctlanWorth it
>>744633480yeah fuck tez, he's an asshole
>>744633458Does playing custom gives achievements?
>>744633532They're getting mogged by a fucking sexbot corporation on VENUS atm. The absolute state of hell spics.
>>744633594kek
>>744633594>filthy dilthey having a rumble in the jungle
If I understand correctly, Hexarchs can't be eliminated, so they are safe to use as a foil to grind reputation for others.Right? Anyone can confirm?
>>744633891I cannot confirm or deny
>>744633970
>>744633549yes. Difficulty affects only one achievement, the one where you have to get to the end without dying on Unfair.
>>744634065Sorry for being annoying, but what does "getting to the end" entails? Does completing Xiomara quest counts?
Altering classes doesn't work retroactively, it seems. A shame
>>744632515You can just keep putting rags and plastic over it(ideally plastic), eventually it will work. Your chance of healing goes up by 5% after every attempt.
>>744634297Sorbent is great for that. No need for bandages and splints
>>744634131idk I never got to the end. But there are some story missions so I assume some of them lead to an ending.
>>744634960I'd prefer a post game. Unless it just reverts you back to before you started the mission after you're done. That's nice.
>>744635094I don't know what "ending" means in this game's context. May just mean an ending to a major storyline.
>>744634960Correct. Some of the final missions you can keep playing after, some you can't.Create a backup save somewhere
>start with random gear>it's all shitthanks gameat least I have a sexbot leg for free
>>744624770>I'm going homebut home is Earth? that's where you start after tutorialat least i did
>>744635567doesn't really matter what you start with as long as you can give the data to realtech
>>744588267Escape from Duckov. Not a meme game, actually pretty competent (and miles ahead of Zero Sievert).
>>744593596>stockpile everythingI am meant to extract entire weapons and pieces of armor? Or just recycle unwanted rewards I get? Because if it's the former I'll never get enough backpack space.
one of the top reviews on the steam page says a lot of the gameplay involves busy work like 'saving 1ap every single turn so you can peek around every corner to avoid being obliterated by something', or skipping turns a bunch?Is that true for all of the game or just early game cause doing that constantly would be a dealbreaker for me.
>>744635787You don't ever really need to corner peak because you can see through walls in sneak mode.
>>744635787>saving 1ap every single turn so you can peek around every corner to avoid being obliteratedyes you will be doing this a lot > skipping turns a bunchyou will also be doing this a lot
>>744635874
>>744635787Sure but it really isn't as slow as you imagine it to be unless you are a giga pussy and plays it uber safe. I usually sneak around and open doors carefully and it is smooth enough that it doesn't feel annoying.
>>744635914that's pretty standard for roguelikes and turn based tactics games, it's called AP management and holding a positionif you want an action top town extraction shooter Duckov is right there
