IT'S OUThttps://store.steampowered.com/app/4576490/Casualties_Unknown/I've been looking forward to this for such a long time, I'm so happy it's finally out. I first played this game years ago on itch.io when it was just called Scav Prototype and there were only 3 layers that looped, a janky as hell rudimentary crafting system, and no flowing liquid physics.I still remember my first experiences with the game. The gameplay experience of dying is so viscerally intense and panic-inducing. My first several deaths left me feeling stunned, exhausted, and depressingly hollow inside afterwards. I'd never experienced anything like it in a videogame before. Still to this very day even after dying hundreds of times now, dying has an effect on me. I just sit there bummed like>"...fuck..."I finished layer 7 yesterday which was a relaxing walk in the park compared to the endless nightmare near-death agony of layer 6, and now I'm getting ready to start layer 8 for the very first time. I'm excited and also nervous about discovering whatever fucked up shit is waiting down there. But surely it can't be anywhere near as bad as layer 6....right?

In that clip I threw the dynamite which you really shouldn't do. It's so easy to fuck up the throw and have the dynamite hit the ground in front of you and blow yourself up.I highly suggest dropping the dynamite so you know it's secure and not going to roll away or something, lighting it, then running away to a safe spot.Plan out and rehearse running to your safe spot so you don't light it and then fuck up somehow and explode.
The developer posted more. He did it, bros, I'm so happy for him. It warms my heart.
Placing dynamite also lets you blow up harder to reach structures.
Reposting my lumalgae -> biochem crafting tip because it's such an incredibly useful and lifesaving gamechanger that everyone should know.Use a campfire to cook 250ml of lumalgae to make 25ml of biochem.It's that easy. Make a fire near a big pool of lumalgae and you can fill up a 750ml IV bag of biochem effortlessly which you can use to make as many lifesaving crafts like antiseptic, fentanyl, and LRD fluid as you want.And minor crafting failures might not have any effect at all, and who cares about losing the lumalgae from a major crafting failure? There's gorillions of liters of lumalgae everywhere. It spawns infinitely from geysers.
>>751334343I just beat the game for the first time a little bit ago, and there are some horrors still waiting for you, be assured of that.>>751335095o7
>literal troll physics
I suggest always saving and quitting when reaching the bottom of a layer and backing up your save file. The last thing anyone wants is to lose their 12+ hour save file on the very last layer because your game crashed or windows restarted or some other bullshit.Your save file is located in>\AppData\LocalLow\Orsoniks\CasualtiesUnknown>save.svCopy and paste your save.sv somewhere. And if you want to reload your save, simply paste it back into the CasualtiesUnknown folder.
>>751335546Oh yeah thanks for reminding me to try out the new tutorials. I don't think that was in the demo.
>>751335546I struggle so much on applying these tutorial techniques on actual runs. Wall jumps, attack boost jumps etc. are just too damn hard to perform when I'm already too stressed out of everything else happening
>>751334343Not gonna play a furry game, sorry.
>>751335095Deserved. He's genuinely talented, And when his vent game got popular he didn't have a schizo meltdown, didn't let discord fags derail him, didn't off himself over his shitty East Euro life. He got a publisher to tardwrangle and hold him accountable and then hunkered down for six months and finished the game. Why can't more devs be this based?
>reach ice level for the first time>pretty cool (no pun intended)>take one step onto the ice and fall 900ft into a spider nest>last stand revives me so they can eat me twiceOk im not even mad about that.
A guy's making a neat looking firearms handling minigame mod. I'd love for modders to add neat little minigames for everything.>>751335984I know right? I'm so glad. He's got that FOCUSED moodle.
>>751335546Why wouldn't this work? Isn't this just Newton's third law?
>>751336180
>>751336002I've seen multiple anons post about their horrible experiences in that horrible layer that I'm considering compiling a screencap of it. I know my experience was near-fatal and terrible. Could be funny.
>>751336327>mfw (milky's face when)God that's so fucking hot, fuck. I wish that were me racking that slide.
>>751336180Oops I forgot the youtube linkhttps://youtu.be/LISsvoEL7rQ
>>751336348obviously won't work for a collage, but here's my experience of narrowly snatching death from the jaws of safety multiple times on layer 6even with the LRD I died of internal bleeding, got last stand, and then died of internal bleeding again
For me, it's the Titanium Machete.It can be used to fight hostile creatures. It can be used to break coils. It can be used to rush through leaves at amazing speed. It can be used to dig through HEAVY ROCK. Hell, you can even use it to craft trinkets (maybe even open beer cans like homer simpson) at little durability cost. Practically speaking, this thing will never break unless you're playing endless.The Titanium Machete will take you to the bottom of the grey planet. Do mind my words about this wonderful item, anons. I would not have made it without it.
>>751336770Jesus fucking christ what the fuck. I can see why anons are wondering if the world generation glitched or something.>0:03 secondsWtf was that minibarrel???https://youtu.be/j2d6T5G2rrY
let's not give up just yet
>>751337343I can confirm. I bought one from an expie and it's amazing. >It can be used to dig through HEAVY ROCK.This. It's good enough to be used as a digging tool if necessary. I used mine to mine more titanium for little durability loss.I haven't used a titanium pickaxe yet, but it might be unnecessary when the titanium machete already does a good enough job at digging. Like I'm badly overencumbered already and I can't fit a pickaxe. My titanium machete is my digging tool when necessary.>>751337414Beautiful. I can imagine the perfect stillness and quietness of the snow-covered setting.
>>751337343Do you like my -chete ti- titanium -chete
I'm pretty sure microdosing ice cream and hot sauce to regulate your temperature still works in the full release. A 1ml sip of them gives you the full-strength and full-length cooling down or warming up effects they give.I found some ice cream in my run and sipped 1ml of it whenever I was overheating in the middle layers. It really works wonders. Ice cream can also save your brain from boiling in your skull if you get zapped by a coil.Hot sauce is life saving too. ESPECIALLY on Desolate. Keep all hot sauce if you find any, trust me.
>>751337724>I haven't used a titanium pickaxe yet, but it might be unnecessary when the titanium machete already does a good enough job at diggingThe titanium pick has the benefit that you can actually break steel with it. Hard to tell if i'd take one over the Machete though. It's less encumbrance and you also have an amazing, very strong very fast melee weapon for combat.Besides, the titan machete recipe is cheap enough that you'll still have titanium left to craft a trauma rig from the same "imenite batch" if you wish. Very resource-efficient. Yeah, i think i know which one i like more, lmao>>751337981Fukken' SAVED
>game finally releases>thread barely aliveso it was all fetishists after all
>>751338472There's two running at the same time.The other one is more active, but it has a bait OP so there's a lot of shitposting.
>>751337414absolutely beautiful forestabsolutely adorable retard
>>751338472Because people are busy playing, duh.
>>751336184you arent strong enough to throw something with enough force to cancel your momentum
>>751338472>game is several hours long>"ahahaha slow thread losers, let me post some steam charts, dead game, fetish cult"The game is several hours long kurwa dickhead.
>>751338447>the titan machete recipe is cheap enough that you'll still have titanium left to craft a trauma rig from the same "imenite batch" if you wish.That's an excellent point. Titanium sheets have way more uses than titanium rods. And titanium ore is not as rare as I was expecting. I used to think plastic dressings were nowhere near worth the price of crafting them, but it turns out they're actually not that hard or expensive to make and are the best bandages in the game. I've crafted and fully used 3 or 4 so far.
>>751338697>>751338910in my times people were pausing the new hot game every 5 minutes to post screenshots of their gameplays, maybe its different now

Layer 8 loading screen.This is not what I was expecting. I spawned right next to an expie corpse which I will choose to believe was coincidence and not a bad omen.The music here is banging. I was not expecting to hear that track here, it feels completely different and cool in this context.There's new effects on my screen that are making me nervous. I'm keeping my rifle by my side.I wonder what will happen if I break these things...
>>751336348Ooh layer 6. I nearly forgot the absolute fuckery that went on in that one for me, since... i've had worse things happen later. But i certainly didn't fully forget getting double headshoted by offscreen turrets after landing on a 2x2 platform navigating down, then proceeding to fall a mindbogglingly insane distance and having to spend some 30 IRL minutes in a Milky pod healing my bones and slowly administering braingrow to recover from 65% brain integrity because i refuse to ever use mindwipe (and i wasn't going into the next unknown level with THESE brain damage effects happening, if you know you know)Unfortunately i didn't manage to record the incident so this pic is only for illustration (i still have my left eye here). Thank you, Milky that i didn't photograph. I love you.>>751339575Well, the only thing i can say is good luck anon. I swear i'm gonna have fucking ptsd from this level when i inevitably get there again...
>>751337414Hell yeah, another retard to add to my collection.
>layer 8I don't like these things. I have absolutely no idea what they'll do to me and I've heard extremely bad things from anons. But I found a lore note that explains one, I think. I love notes like these so much you have no idea. I NEED to find more so I know what the hell I'm dealing with here.The other music track here fucking jumpscares me when it starts, kek. Can any anons relate?
>>751340320>then proceeding to fall a mindbogglingly insane distanceOk I'm gonna have to make the anon post compilation about that layer soon.
>>751340965>The other music track here fucking jumpscares me when it starts, kek. Can any anons relate?Yeah i think i do remember a track like that lmao. As if this layer wasn't butt-clenching enough normally
>bro sees me playing this>wants to try MP>"sure bro just do the demo before buying it">he boughted it>fucked up the install>forgot to put BepInEx in>corrupted the game files>refunded itBro, i love you man but your IQ is sub zero.
How are you supposed to get into those steel-encased container setpieces in the first layer? Can't dig into them. Wait for an earthquake to bust them open?
>>751342582There's a few.>ragdolling to get in a 1-block ceiling gap>ragdolling to get in a 2-block wall gap>breaking soft tiles when they replace the metal>pray for earthquake>pray for plasma cutter>get to int 9 and make dynamite
>>751342582You can make gunpowder with the stoneplant fruits. Guess what you get to do with that :)
>layer 8Ok actually I'm liking this now once my initial nervousness has worn off. This is interesting. Feels like STALKER.>burning ones don't act like campfiresliterally unfuckingplayable Orsoniks pls fix or i refund and negative review>>751342582Plasma cutter can destroy the steel tiles easily but you most likely don't have one in layer 1.You can lockpick crates through walls! Remember that. Sometimes there's a 1-tile gap in the steel on the sides that lets you grab items from inside if you position yourself just right.This anon is right >>751342820 For the big ones with an opening on the side you it's possible to dig it open then ragdoll into the 2-tile tall opening. Be very careful about making absolutely sure you can ragdoll back out or you will entomb yourself inside and die a horrible slow death.Milkies are so short they don't have to ragdoll and can just crouch right in.
I'm about to enter layer 6 for the first time, wish me luck. I don't want to wikifag the new areas in advance but I've heard the tales about falling the entire height of the layer from these threads so I've prepared and brought plenty of climbing rope.
>layer 8Got jumpscared and almost had a heart attack IRL. I thought my worst nightmare was about to happen in-game when I'm getting so close to the end. Ough my heart. I can feel the adrenaline in my veins.>>751344487Good luck anon. Do tell us if bringing lots of climbing rope is worth it.
>backpack breaks and all of my spaghetti spills out and falls down a chasm in a deep layer>not enough resources to craft a new one>open a crate>new backpackthank you, observer-kun for your generosity and mercy.
>>751342582Pretty much every single one can be entered via ragdoll gaps...JUST open the crates first before you swooce inside or you'll feel like a bigger retard getting jammed in a cage for a fucking versperin bottle.
I successfully descended layer 8. It wasn't as bad as I was afraid it would be. I got really lucky and got a new backpack right after mine broke and a brand new heavy drill from crates. The drill really helped here, I would have survived without it but it made things much easier. That was a neat layer and I'd like to explore it more next time. So far I'd say the difficulty trend is decreasing from the giga difficulty spike that was layer 6.I'm so fucking close, bros. I really believe I can make it.Loading screen for layer 9.Oh. My difficulty trend prediction was wrong.Fucking sick music as usual. God I the music in this game, it's all so fucking good. I want to give Orsoniks a pat on the back. He not only developed the game, but made all the in-game assets, and even did the music, and it's all so good. He should be proud of himself.
I want to try crafting a scaffolding pack. If they're still like how they were in the demo, then they last a really long time. Imagine being able to build bridges or stairs to anywhere you want to go. It's kinda like a climbing rope that lets you go not just down, but also sideways and upwards. It can also be strategically used to block turrets and other harmful terrain.
>>751348987scaffold is one of the best items you can possibly find. crafting is a pain in the ass tho.
Layer 9 descended. Much like layer 8, it wasn't as bad as I was afraid it was going to be. I lost my flashlight and couldn't find any copper to craft a new one.I think I crafted and used more climbing ropes here than in any other layer. There were lots of big drops that I roped down and I had no light so I couldn't see very well either, but I made it. My head got split open but I made a full recovery.
Layer 10 loading screen. Oh my god. This is it. This is the moment I've been waiting years for. The Cargo.I'm so fucking excited and nervous, I can feel it in my heart. I absolutely cannot fuck this up now after I've come so far and played for so long. The music here is fucked, but in a good way. Let's do this. For the eventual freedom of all sawiankind.
>>751351489gl anon
>>751334343I thought the medical system would filter me, instead the autistic crafting is doing it...its just so fucking complex and irritating, the thought of making bags and equipment after every death is grating
>>751336184its the equivalent of "if I jump at the last moment from a falling elevator I won't die"
>>751338472main audience is europeans, which are now asleep
>>751351489FUCK BROS, IM STUCK AND IM RUNNING OUT OF TIME, WHERE IS THE FUCKING CARGOOOOOOOO
>>751351489I'm not sure what I expected it to be, but I surely didn't expect THAT to happen
>>751352550when you get close there's a pulsating giant ring that tells you the general location, it has a fairly big radius so if you don't see it keep going
>>751348987are sawians lemmings now ahaha that's awesome
>>751344929>Good luck anon. Do tell us if bringing lots of climbing rope is worth it.My bag that was carrying all my ropes and food and good expired just as I was wallsliding down so I didn't get to use any, but I seem to have gotten lucky with the terrain generation because there was always a clear path down.
>>751336770my frozen chasm looked nothing like this, what the fuck? did you get a layer modifier that melted all the ice and snow or something?
>>751335095good for him>>751335262yeah it's pretty great.
>>751335095ok but the game is sold at like 20 bucks and has a publisher so I wonder how much money orsoniks will actually get to see
>>751351489>>751352550>>751352842It's over. I feel empty.
playing on relaxed difficulty. so far it's almost too easy. 2 hours per layer is too generous
>>751354283jesus, dying on layer 10 just meters away from the objective, rip expie, you did your best
I HATE PLAYING MILKIESUSELESS PIECES OF SHITTHESE FAGGOT ALWAYS WANT TO SLEEP
>>751354760someone please draw a milky discovering coffee
>>751354476Then, like, edit it broski?For MP i run +0.1 loot and -0.1 metabolism per player with trap scaling on. (its off by default)Solo i just play with default settings, they are very generous and the only layers you are going to be spending the full hour on are 1+2 if you are jacking your sexpie.
>>751354283So that was my very first run of the release version and I played it very seriously and carefully because I wanted to make sure I survived to experience every new layer and recover the cargo and get the ending and closure I so craved. Shame it ended in unnecessary tragedy because I'm retarded and expie-brained.My next run I'll play much more casually and just go down instead of fucking around for hours and getting chased by the radline over and over.>>751352842I think I realize now what you meant by that. I just went down and only down. I saw it on my screen repeatedly the whole time but never payed any attention to it. I didn't think it was important and ignored it. I feel so dumb. I haven't seen any other anons post about not knowing what to do so it really was just me who didn't figure that out kek.>>751354536>dying on layer 10 just meters away from the objectiveNo I was very far from it. I never saw it.What's a shame is that the steam recording failed in the middle of layer 10 so I can't post any screenshots or video of how stuck I was. I admit it was a really amazing moment when I got a pop-up in the corner of my screen saying steam recording has failed, as if the Observer itself or the cargo or the depth or all three were so intense and climactic that it was affecting my actual computer. That was a fun thought at the moment.
>>751359071>steam recordinguse OBS. I also record me talking to myself to get the real experience if I happen to get a really interesting accident or whatever. it tends to be mostly "oh no oh no oh geez" whenever things are bad
>>751359071speaking of the observer that fucker jumpscared me when I reached the cargo and casually hovered away during the cutscene that playsdon't give up, you were very close, though closure is far from near my friend, there's multiple endings for a reason
>>751359957>>751360715What I really wish I could do is stitch together screenshots of the entire area to show exactly how fucked I was.I drew a rough approximation in mspaint as best as I can remember it instead. There was nowhere for me to go with what I had. The reason I ended up in such a fucked up place was because I foolishly never realized where I was actually supposed to be going.Climbing claws would have been useful there. I wonder if it would be a good idea to save a jetpack inside your backpack and then whip it out to breeze through the final layer?If I had made that scaffolding pack I wanted >>751348987, could I have lived and succeeded? I don't think so.Yes I could have escaped the first pit if I had a scaffolding pack by building platforms and taking the route I took leftwards. That way I would have not wasted so much time digging uselessly to the right.But the honest truth is that I was completely ignorant of where I was actually supposed to be going and most likely would have still died by trying to go the wrong way.Now I know what to do. Maybe??? I'm still not exactly sure, but I'll do things differently next time. And that's how everyone gets better at this game when you think about it. Making mistakes and dying over and over and over again but learning from each mistake and death, letting you survive longer and descend farther each time. That also makes you realize how ludicrously low the odds are for a sawian to actually recover the cargo. If we players who know exactly what to do still die, then how the fuck is a poor ridiculously unprepared sawian supposed to do it?I previously made an analogy that I think sums it up well. The sawian who canonically recovered the cargo is like a brand new player playing the game for the first time and somehow against all odds successfully recovering the cargo. The odds are so incredibly low. But not zero.Reaching layer 10 on my first try is pretty nice. Next time I'll recover the Cargo properly.
>>751362168THAT'S a very detailed drawingand yeah your thoughts aren't wrong and are actually tied to the narrative which leads into gunsaw actually, you'll see- just make sure you follow the blue pulsating effect next time, you got this
>>751362491Thanks, anon. My only real regret was not injecting all my fentanyl in time to give my poor expie the blissful opioid exit he so deserved.
>>751362764he's in a better place regardless, his experience is now yours to conquer the final layer
>>751354283NOOOO i was rooting for you D:I'm sorry that it had to end so close to the goal, anon. You'll get it next time!>>751362168Is that red shit fucking lava???I don't remember seeing any lava in that layer, but then again i never went any lower than the objective in altitude. Pretty scary if that is the case.
>>751336002Really cool game btw
Interesting PDA i found around.So this is how they lost it...
>>751366001well this explains why it lodges itself in the expie torso
Skipping L8 this run. FUCK that place.>>751340965Yes. And it's banging.>>751363285>wall of red stuffProbably infinirock or some new tile.
>>751354861They're canine, anon. Coffee upsets their tummy.
>>751363285>Is that [] fucking []???It's mantle. I assumed I just needed to keep going downwards like in every single other layer and I hit the bottom of layer 10 and reached the fucking mantle between the Grey Planet's surface crust and inner core. I think the mantle tiles functioned similarly to the hot rock tiles in layer 9, except the mantle is indestructable.That you never saw them shows just how badly I fucked up kek.
>>751369209I see you had an excellent Dune harvest, cheers. I found planting them with meat results in great specimens when they're done growing.
So what procs the self revive? This is my first time playing and got it in the first layer when I thought I died for real.
>>751371376High hapiness
>>751371376It depends on how happy you were about 10 minutes or so before you died. The more happy you are, the more likely it is that you'll make a last stand. It's guaranteed above 70 mood i believe and you'll never get it far in the negatives
First enemy kill with gunslinger Milky!The makeshift rifle seems to be worth for something other than turret plinking now. Although i absolutely cannot wait to make myself deaf by getting my boy to rapid fire the actual shotgun.>>751370536Damn that's crazy. Well, at least it being solid means it isn't a dice roll for insta death to slip into a hole in this layer (which i did... can't believe my luck now)
>>751371627>gunslinger Milky!That's fucking sick. Milky even counts how many rounds are left. Shooting a spider to death that's already stunned and helpless on the ground instead of switching to melee is a very milkypilled thing to do. Based.>getting my boy to rapid fire the actual shotgun.You gotta post a clip of that if you find one. And a catbox link with the sound version. God yes I would love to see a big spider get fucking pulped in seconds by a milky slamfiring his shotty into it.Gunslinger milky would make wet rifles and pistols jamming less infuriating too.
The escape sequence is easy, yet I still died to a ceiling turret. Riot helmet fucking melted.But it's okay because I had a save backed up/I savescummed.Turns out you can sneak past them through the vents anyway.
>alt + F4 wiped my saveDid it always do this? I swear this is new.
>>751334537Me, just toss a glowfruit down first dummy.
>>751335095>polack being happyyou deserve it you moth fuck
Hands the most shilled shit on vermin and its shilled by safe horny furry shitters
>>751354283Greek Tragedy
>>751372210Well anon i have sad news. Unfortunately i died in the ionized wasteland :(Wish i had got it on video, it was an extremely unfortunate fall (although partly my fault too). I panicked trying to get away from a sound cannon and ragdolled due to heavy weight. What followed next was that i was hit by TWO sound cannons in sucession on my way down (literally kaizo-tier) and landed right beside a radioactive barrel. I broke it with my plasma cutter but the damage was already done, i did not survive very long after that.The moral of the story is: don't haul around a bunch of heavy shit with Milky. I thought finding that plasma cutter had been a blessing, but unfortunately it only led to my death. Gonna have to seriously change my strategy for my next Milky attempt. Being a hoarder is not an option.>>751373921The way that it worked in the demo was that the game disposed of the save file after you click "continue" to load it. I've lost saves in the same way to computer crashes.
>>751374423So basically if the game crashes: I lose my save. That's pretty BS. I'm sure the dev thinks of it as a "feature" to stop people from save-scumming.
>>751336002>layer is called frozen chasm>there is a giant fucking chasm in the layerjump the chasm, it is that simple
I got a rare Steam cheevo by complete accident, I guess by getting my body really cold?
>>751374743Lol, I got this achievement while falling 200 meters in that one layer. It was a nice consolation prize (got that achievement in that layer too)Turrets are heat sensitive, apparently
Be honest. Did you see it? I hate that I managed to get out of this only for some bullshit to get me afterwards.
>>751334343What was changed since the demo? I've only played this a little bit back in June.
>>751374423Funnily enough, I just made it through wasteland with an unchipped milky that is absolutely loaded down with crap, and I ended up getting the cheevo for not ragdolling due to falling. But that is mostly due to managing to get the full 2 gravbag + 1 medkit + trauma + leg pouch setup plus neural booster, on top of all the usual craftable gear storage and a metric ton of IV/blood bag fluid storage.Can I just say though that milky nap times get really fucking tedious really quickly. At one point I found a couple of stone fruit plants that I wanted to break for 5.56 ammo, and it took more than 2 sleep cycles to crack open all the stonefruit. It gets extra annoying when you have 2 grav bags and a flashlight on you and you have to constantly go through the entire process of nestling into a stable rest spot, turning your flashlight off, opening your inventory to access a tool, pulling batteries out of your bags twice, getting ragdolled by weight, sleeping, repowering your bags, picking up your light, turning your light back on, and then continuing on for 5 minutes before you have to do the whole...goddamn...process...again.
>>7513748486 more layers, more items like prosthetics, and refined mechanics. You can actually beat the game now, and there are 2 new characters you can unlock by winning.The finished product is very much like the demo, but there's more of it.
>>751374804Would it make you mad if I told you that I did in fact spot it within about 2 seconds of looking at the paused clip.Seriously though, mine placement can be pretty bullshit. You basically have to get into the habit of scanning your eyes along every horizontal surface when you are in a layer with mines. Doesn't matter what else is on that surface - if you can stand on it, assume there is a mine there until you visually confirm otherwise, and assume that at any moment something could drop onto that hypothetical mine and set it off.
This is what killed me btw. Sent me into a death spiral. Kinda hate the depression mechanic>boohoo I just survived a landmine WAAHH I GIVE UP>>751375581>Seriously though, mine placement can be pretty bullshitLook at this one and tell me you can see it.
Is that an Arnold Palmer? Tasty!
>>751376018>he didn't tip the bartender
Is the trader limit a new thing? Kind of annoying when you want to make a big purchase and they're like "sorry, I'm not buying anymore shit"
>>751375093>neural boosterSeems like making this thing is gonna be almost mandatory for Milky runs, yeah. There's little way to avoid having your encumbrance on almost always on the red if you have serious gear on you, the neural would at least make it tolerable.>Can I just say though that milky nap times get really fucking tedious really quicklyBeing completely honest, i never felt a need to do a battery removal ritual even when playing with expie. I know it's probably the optimal play but medium batteries last long enough that it's never been a noticeable problem, at least for me.And Milky sleeps super fast. At that point i have doubts if there is even a real advantage to taking time to unplug the batteries.
>>751376089There's been a trade limit since the current system was implemented.On desolate you'll really want to max out your reputation to stretch those 60 points further.That's the only way to get those big ticket items from milkies.
>>751376018
>>751369209I didn't find a drill pod.
>>751376103I believe each sleep cycle costs 3% drain, which can add up depending on your battery economy. Also I asked this in the other thread before it died, but does anyone know a good replacement for the scarf for dressings? I'm carrying around a lot of canvas but I miss the higher dressing density you could get with scarves. A LOT of things got nerfed to fuck in the full release.
>>751335262pretty sure minor crafting failures only apply to things with durability

>>751376589>ScarfI, I don't understand the question...?You can use the scarf to craft ripped dressing, same as one canvas. That was always a thing, even in the demo.Or maybe you had a mod installed that buffed them and you forgot?

So, has anyone figured out a way to reliably counteract the Milkies narcolepsy? I just completed my third run as a dune and Now I want to do another run as another milky but with a crippling opiate addiction.
>Bark, hoping to locate Traders by having them bark back at me.>Traders don't BarkDev, get on it.
>>751378015agreed
Has anyone tested out if Dune's get smarter dialogue the more their Int increases in game? I managed to get to 10 int as a dune in my last run and his dialogue seems smarter but I was too busy focusing to really read the dialogue.
>>751378298The game's released and done, buckoIf you were expecting more features and QoL updates, you are outta luck!
>seek thine water elsewheregoddammit, who let the milky read Shakespeare?
>>751334343>>751338910Isn't there a hidden mode that lets you treat injured and hurt expies and brighten their day?
>>751375695>doesn't mouse over the bottom of oil pools to find hidden minesI would say ngmi, but you already did not, in fact, make it.Again though, you just gotta get into the habit of checking *everything* that you approach close enough to be within the blast radius of mines. Go near a pool of oil? Scan it for mines. Near stalactites? Look at where they could end up after being triggered, and check that area for mines. Harvesting plants? Could some foliage roll off and fall onto another surface? You bet your ass you are checking that shit for mines hiding in the weeds and other weird places.
How will milkies being snoozepilled sleepmaxxers that need a power nap every 5 minutes affect the fan art?
How are you supposed to have enough time to do the SPOILERS RETARD last second surgery[My Milky could NOT bash that shit out fast enough.I wish there was a warning.
>>751334343Is this like Noita + Trauma Center + misery porn + furrfags?
>>751379395No.
>>751379395Kinda
>>751377238Nope, in the demo scarves had rippable quality 2, so you could get a full dressing out of one scarf that weighed the same as a canvas. They got nerfed hard in the full release, with rippable quality 1 and increased weight as well. And you can't put scarves in the material pouch anymore, either.

>>751379395It's the Dark Souls of the gong down genre
Layer 5 will forever remain my greatest nemesis, no matter what I do i always get screwed, I had a shotgun, machete, flashlight, plenty of food and water and I got stuck in an unfortunate place and salad decided to pay me a visit and I got raped
For the first time, I managed to beat the jungle level, I focused on getting through it as fast as possible, mini laser ran out of battery quite quickly but I did find a plasma cutter, also I was almost immediately chased by a salad at the start of the layer but I managed to lose it, I ended up dying at the 6th layer because I got too cold, panicked and fell quite a bit right on top of a snow strider.

Protip of the day: If there is something important hiding behind 1 steel tile, you can use carefully placed shotgun blasts to break it. No need to squeeze yourself into unescapable positions.Also, bonus tip: the makeshift digging tool sells for 30 in the full game. Be sure to save that flimsy knife that you made in the first layer. It can become quite the money with just a couple sticks and a rope.
I have played demo for four hours on normal.Last run was over hour long.I decided to begin on easiest to learn the basics properly.Took me one hour to get to the bottom of first layer.Things felt easy but pretty much the whole time was spent on reading and learning things.
>have a really good relaxed run going>touch a cactus and ragdoll onto two landmines>somehow manage to patch myself up enough to try to head down to layer 4 for helluce>touch another cactus and fall ~100 meters>bleed out>last stand!>fix all my dislocated and broken bones>gather final supplies for layer 4>head to gather some water>jump>make a hard landing>hear a turret beep>can't jump away because ragdoll>get headshotted and die immediately because no helmet
>>751390013That's normal. The first layer is usually just spent doing preparation anyway, crafting, looting etc. It's good that you're actually doing reading and learning, plenty of people refuse to do that and just get stuck on the first level forever without progressing.>>751390168Yeah, gotta be careful with those jump heights. Did you happen to be carrying a lot of weight? That tends to make those hard landings a lot more likely to happen
>>751389967>spending 8+ powerder+plastic+metal on 1 tileLiterally just make dynamite you idiot.
>>751391060Too much collateral damage.And shotgun ammo is basically free. Might as well use it for everything.
Holy fuck milky on unchipped is fucking impossible. this carry weight and narcolepsy is absurd. No way you're getting past the jungle level like this. How the fuck do you counteract the narcolepsy and carry weight reee I spent an entire hour grinding my strength to 10 by doing pushups but it had a negligible effect on my carry capacity..
I don't wanna work. wahhhhhh. I wanna play the GAME MORE.
>>751391514grav bag or die
>>751391604Can you craft grav bag reliably? Is there a way to do it every run?
>>751391514oxygen crystal + plankingdo it inside a drop pod with the heater set to coldkeep at it and your gains will be great
>>751386632I would fuck an expie anywhere
>>751391774Yes, but like I said, even at str 10. Which is pretty close to base expie my carry capacity was still shit. So what does Milkies str need to be at? I always assumed that all three characters have the same stat with no bias adjustment per character??Can someone correct me on this?
>>751391514Seems like going for a minimal loadout is the only way to go without neural booster/grav-bag(s). Playing as Milky is basically an extremely intensive crash course in inventory management.
>>751388186Larger than an jeets and they produce endless swarms.
>>751391915Doesn't it take longer for Milkies to build up STR?
>>751392782>Doesn't it take longer for Milkies to build up STR?I dunno, I'm always encumbered whenever I play as a milky. encumbered status gives you a bonus to your str gain + doing pushups makes you level your str very fast. Even as a milky. I was able to go from 5 to 10 str in just five or so sleep cycles. Still, I seemed to still get a limited encumbrance for items.I'm now curious if if both Milky and Expie can be measured to see if they both have the same str stat, that one or the other can still carry more than the other. Has anyone done this test yet?
>>751354108isn't he like an actual toddler? whatever money it makes is probably way more than you've made by his age
>Skullcrusher drops on my head from offscreen>fall down a chasm>straight into an elder thronbackand i just made a titanium machete....
>>751392782>>751393139Milkies have x0.5 multiplayer to str and res gains.
>>751393303str gain, yeah. But I'm talking about if you have the stat already.
>>751393274Just wait until he starts selling merch like Expie plushies.
>>751393283>titanium machete and multitool>half a liter bottle of relief cream>only saw one elder thornback at the end of jungle
>>751393385They have the same stat for carrying capacity if both are having 10 str and 10 res.
>>751390519>Did you happen to be carrying a lot of weight?maybe 3 or so above my maximum capacity
>>751393736Hmmm.... Okay, so I guess resistance does play into carry capacity then.
>>751393768game will pick lowest stat from str and res and then make it your carrying capacity, so if you have 15 str and 7 res the game will use 7(15) str and 7 res as your max for carrying, if you want to build res apply tourniquet to your left hand let your pain build up take it off when taking muscle damage and repeat, don't go too crazy with pain cause it build trauma and it can lower your max happiness
after 20min (irl) of trying to go around a concrete column I started punching it. it breaks fairly "easily" like copper. it was nerfed compared to demo!

And too often does ragdolling lead into more falling and getting fucked by traps.>Gonna have to seriously change my strategy for my next Milky attempt. Being a hoarder is not an option.I'll keep this in mind for my Milky playthrough too. I like these threads because we can also learn from each others mistakes instead of having to learn them the hard (fatal) way.
>>751396907If you really want you can back up your save, alt-f4, and then reload it to get a new worldgen.
>>751391514I'm in the same boat as you. I feel like unless you get good containers early on your milky run will be just painful and unfun.I eventually managed to find a gravbag at the end of layer 4, but man it was fucking torture. Even now, I have to keep my 'Satiated' bonus or else my milky turns into lead.No hope in throwing away my items, either. My pickaxe saved my ass multiple times and the other items are medical stuff I scavenged.I guess I could have thrown my soup and bread away, then craft foliage meals for layers 3 and 4, and stock up on sap and bread on layer 5?There's no ceiling rye past layer 5, but you can make pemmican I guess.I feel like, for future milky runs, I'm gonna always start with the full starter kit. Just to make the gameplay a bit less annoying.
>>751396907High pressure in itself isn't too dangerous. As for the low supplies, just stay on the move and be as quick as you can while still being cautious. I was in a similar situation traversing through that spot + sepsis, yet i made it. You're almost there so just keep going.>>751397429If he does this he locks himself out of the achievements though. Plus, i don't think it'd work if he is mid-game.>>751397106Yeah. One needs to learn to let go of "maybe it'll be useful" items... Encumbrance on the red kills way more often than we think.

I've experienced that too. webmrelated, I got so fucking lucky that the stalactite happened to land perfectly to block the LOS check from the landmine to me and tank the entire blast.Always check oil pools for traps, anons. Even tiny 1-tile shallow puddles can almost completely conceal a landmine or beartrap.This anon sums it up well. >>751378960 You gotta examine your surroundings and think ahead of time what may or will happen. It would be so mentally exhausting for poor sawians in the caves being forced to maintain such maximum %110 mental effort and awareness looking for traps and ensuring they don't get hurt or killed by everything. Because the one moment you let your guard down is when you die.>>751377038>"That tasted like SHIT.">>751380009>fire goes out immediate because it's rainy>How does rain work? If there are tiles above my head, will I stay dry?I'm not sure exactly. I've had tiles above my head and still got wet. But then other times the rain was blocked. My guess is that if there are tiles *close* above your head, the rain is blocked.For example I made a campfire in those wooden tunnel structures and the fire didn't go out nor did I get wet. So there were tiles about 3 blocks above my head.>>751382627That's the fucking best. How's your run going so far, anon?>>751382848Kek>>751386296That'd be amazing. I feel like the Palworld devs would be up for it. Anons talked about thornback pals and I thought that was an amazing idea.>>751398481>ditching bandages and just using wound glueThat's a cool idea. You mean like if you find a wound glue barrel and fill up a container full of the stuff? I've dumped 100ml of wound glue on my wounds before and it's amazing. Not only does it close even the biggest wounds, but it rapidly heals your skin hp by like 50 points.

So after the initial half of a run when you're fully set, is there any reason not to just rush to the bottom of each layer other than occasionally sidetracking to recoup used/lost consumables and resources?
>>751398787>>751401510>click media tabdamn, what an absolutely horrid art style
Welphttps://fxbsky.app/profile/yunamunakula.bsky.social/post/3mzzjz36q2c2n
how much of a bitch am I if I try to beat the game on relaxed? I can get around layer 5 on tough before I get unlucky and die and I feel like I'm at my limit
>>751401782the way to play the game is to start on the easiest difficulty and then make stuff harder as you learn the layers thoroughly.
>>751402042>>751389119
>>751401667i ain't clicking that shit nigga
How are you suppose to avoid those new turrets on layer 10? Don't tell me they react to you throwing things at them.
>>751401578Rushing through layers 5-9 seems to be a strong strategy. You need good tools already to do it, but once you have a solid kit looting for more is kind of a waste. Crates that aren't already on your path aren't worth the trouble, especially if there are traps between you and them.
>>751402474Shoot them or don't get underneath them
>>751403186>96cm tallHot.
>>751401782Don't worry at all. I suggest playing the game on the default difficulty at first a few times just so you can get the great and awesome true helpless new player experience everyone has of dying in agony in layer 1 over and over again like the clueless ridiculously unprepared expie you canonically are. You can only experience that once and it's magical. I'll never forget it.But then afterwards feel free to try the other playstyle presets or tweak the playstyle settings however you like. Maybe the Tough preset is mostly fine for you but you struggle with the darkness, so increase the ambient light setting to Bright enough to see, it makes a huge difference.What matters is that you keep learning from your mistakes. You're reaching layer 5 so you've already improved and learned a lot. As long as you remember to not make risky jumps into darkness and always be looking for traps you'll greatly improve your experience.Oh and if layer 5 is a wall for you then remember you can skip layers by repairing those big broken drills! You can fix a drill in layer 4 and skip straight into layer 6, or fix a drill in layer 5 and skip it AND layer 6 and go straight into layer 7.
Why does it like guns so much?
>>751391514Need to grind both RES and STR to increase carry capacity
>>751403428compensating for weak body
>>751402474I used a jetpack to rush past those before they could turn to shoot me. Gotta go fast.
>>751403473But it's using guns that it's weak body can't even handle.
>>751391514>this carry weight and narcolepsy is absurd.Bro you have infinite time to grind str in a pod
>>751402941i think a good reason for exploring later is getting oxygen crystals (for stats) and extra batteries to triple gravbag your way through
>>751402042yeah that is to say you play tough and then you play unchipped
I know destroying traps gives you metal scraps quickly but how do I get trash scraps quickly?
>>751403829>oxygen crystals (for stats)why would you use a consumable for stats when you can just lug around heavy shit and suffer instead (free?)
>>751404089makeshift digging tool one-taps them
>>751404089There's scrap pile blocks you can break that sometimes gives you scrap. Also most traps break instantly by breaking the block under them.
>>751404150>>751404128yes I know you can destroy traps by breaking under them, but that gives metalhow do I get trash?
>>751403993Unchipped is actually easier than tough. Desolate is the actual hard mode.
I want to discuss something with my fellow anons.Drill pod layer skips.Repairing those big broken drill pods and skipping layers.Because >>751401578 and >>751402941 make great points;>when you're fully set, is there any reason not to just rush to the bottom of each layer>Rushing through layers 5-9 seems to be a strong strategy. You need good tools already to do it, but once you have a solid kit looting for more is kind of a waste.When you reach the point in the run when you've got all the gear and stats you need, why go through all the time, effort, blood, sweat, tears, effort, and most importantly, the danger and risk of trudging through every single layer when you can just skip them by fixing drill pods?I think fixing drill pods to skip layers to the cargo is the next big strategy.>already feeling ready to recover the cargo, but you're only on layer 4?>start drill pod layer skipping!Just skip to the end of the game if you're ready for it. Why risk dying and wasting time descending by foot through each and every single layer when you've already got all the gear you need?Very interesting strategy to think about. I'm going to try it next run when I feel ready for the cargo.
>>751404218you don't get "trash"you dig trash piles which are shittier scrap piles with a lower chance of scrap metal
>>751404256>with how exploitable the traders from literal algae
>>751402956>>751403521Well too late for me, I died, next time I will bring scaffolding packs and more biochem fluid for later layers because those long drops are too much.
>>751404269I also want to add that I think fixing a drill pod in layer 5 to skip right past layer 6 is another great idea. Because fuck layer 6 holy shit.
>>751404359
>>751404269you're missing out on gravbags and copper to craft more small batteries to make into medium batteries
>notes:>uninterestingwhat the fuck he's literally me
>>751404883look at this thingthis thing isn't uninterestingthis thing is fuckableyou aren't
>Staying at a distance of 4.1 to 9 tiles from the Ion space heater will warm you up without incurring radiation sickness.cool
>>751404256For me hardmode is unchipped. I'd rather beat another run on desolate than doing it unchipped.
>>751402240
>>751404812Copper can already be found in the early layers so you can stockpile them before heading down.
>>751404269I would personally start drill skipping at layer 5 minimum when I have titanium equipment.
>>751404256Real hard mode is when you fuck with the run settings directly to turn up the trap count/scaling until it's ridiculous.
>>751404269Wow the drill repair kit is a lot cheaper to make now.It used to also need scrap tubes, a scrape cube and a circuit board too.At that price it probably is worth the hearing damage to drill max.
>>751405270who the fuck has time to stockpile on copper in the early layers when there's so much more stuff to craft and do?
>>751402921NO GRAMPS DON'T GIVE THAT TO MILKER
>>751404812>needing copperlaughs in broken light fittings
>jetpack>drill>fannypack>some foodanons, do i ditch the pick here or nah, alongside grabbing the jetpack
>>751405648I would argue that because the early layers dont want to rape you as much as the deeper ones is why you should spend the time to get those resources. Grav bags are just RNG to grab on the way down after you've got the necessities
>>751405861That is your chance brother anonDump everything for the jetpack and drill and rush to the end
>>751405853>I would argue that because the early layers dont want to rape you as much as the deeper ones is why you should spend the time to get those resources.I already am matching the radline and >layer 1 you have shit carry option and carry capacity to haul copper>layer 2 you start to have better options, but because you're grinding>layer 3 you start getting copper and have better options, but the place starts getting worse>layer 4 is horrible>layer 5 can be worse>layer 6 has no copper
>>751401782>how much of a bitch am I if I try to beat the game on relaxed?dark souls and its fanbase have been nothing but a fucking bane on videogames with the git gud meme play at the difficulty you like, you got nothing to demonstrate to anyone
>>751405861You'll need to ditch more than the pick if you want the heavy drill. You're already overloaded and the drill weights 5u compared to the pickaxe's 2u.It's worth the trade, but you need to make room.
Thoughts on the mini laser drill? Supremely expensive to craft, and it eats batteries ridiculously fast. But it's lightweight and zero stamina digging, and pretty good digging too.
>>751406275It is the best digging tool that is guaranteed to be available to you.I aim for one always, but it's definitely better to find one than craft it.
>>751406081expie will be sad if you play as a shitter.
>>751406275I rarely craft anything in vanilla settings because you find enough shit to last you the entire game. Your only use cases for the digging tools are layer 5 and wanting to get into/out of a cage. Dynamite is your friend bro.
>>751406275it's amazing and you should craft it. Batteries are essentially infinite. My only gripe is it doesn't take large ones so you can't do the triple crafting.
>>751406275Best drill hands down. It weights so little for what it is, and batteries are easy to find and craft anyway.Sure, you can't break into structures with it like with heavy drills and plasma cutters, but you use dynamite for that instead.
>>751406275I see it as emergency tool on your belt if you are too wounded to dig normally or if you are milky
>>751406413Dying horribly by playing on a difficulty you dislike would make it way sadder, me thinks.
>>751406597expie knows you're dying to make sure everyone can escape.Every run you play chipped, you're condemning another expie to be a test tube subject
>>751405861I agree with that other anon. You're already dangerously overencumbered. The drill is way too heavy. The jetpack will be very very useful in later layers. But you'll need to drop a lot of things to handle the extra weight.>>751406275I'm not sure. I agree it depletes batteries annoyingly fast. It doesn't seem too useful to me. But then I get stuck somewhere and really wish I had one.
>>751406073I legit have never seen the radline and I always come out of layer 2 with a canteen full of bio chem, 3 bags, knife, headlamp, and 2-4 batteries. I don't know what is taking you so long. Food is everywhere in the first layers, mood isnt an issue cause nap tails plus the purple opium food, and traps are easily avoided/disarmed with glow fruit so you dont have to focus on making a million medical supplies.
Blessed minibarrel right in layer 1. I'll have no excuses for dying in this run with this much LRD fluid.
>>751406809I died instantly in layer 6 with a liquid centrifuge full of 900ml of lrd serum on me. Do better than me, please
>>751406715>I don't know what is taking you so longgrinding int.
>>751406715>eating the opioid appleDont fucking do this holy shit man are you stupid? It decays your weight which can become a huge problem later on as it starts draining your strength as it drops over time.
>>751406924just eat more???stupid????
>>751406924Its a minor offset especially when you're pumping your expie full of fruit. Better to stay happy.
>noita clonefuck off. probably used AI too to pump it out so quickly
>>751406924Somehow I'm always finding high fat food, like buckets of chicken and burgers.The numberries help with managing weight.
>>751407067>Better to stay happy.you already can max happiness with naptail without a problem, and maxing happiness doesn't do anything other than guarantee a last standyou take the opile on top of that you're gonna develop a dependency and actually get a mood debuff
>>751407126Genuinely would be embarrassed to put out bait this weak.I graduated clown school cum laude. Where were you?
>>751407246>I graduated clown school cum laude.you couldn't graduate clown school without claude? Embarrassing.
>>751407215No one is downing numberries like geofruit retard.

>>751407386I got the lightfoot achievement after doing a foggy wasteland while heavily overncumbered, completely bewildered me i could've sworn i fat fell multiple times
>>751407174This is what all sawians should look like.
>>751407460>zero reading comprehension
I got hit by a spike trap in my abdomen and contemplated suicide, but managed to recover, but the counter for my attempts hasn't gone downdoes it reset on layer change or what?

>>751408345You're not able to grab onto a rope when ragdolling like that, you're at the mercy of the terrain. >>751408065lolalso turn off BLOOM you crazy coaldog can't see shit anywayoxyline is a really fun liquid though. great for injecting!

>>751408426I mean why did you even jump at the opposite cliff where the trap was?
Protip: don't jump down chasms next to infinirock in the crystal layer unless you are prepared to either dig or climb back up.Thankfully titanium machete is the single most versatile melee tool in the game.
>>751408497he was reading barrel and just tapped left without thinking. thus lost to text
the new explosion earthquakes are weird.
>>751408578makes sense though if they're still sending expies down there.
>>751408494You had a grav-bag, didn't you? You let it run out of battery, didn't you?
>>751408065>lost to text AGAINnever put life saving medicines in your mouth
>>751406658you can remove it
>>751408891wtf how?
>>751408797Yeah, yeah I did
>>751408891actually you can't. I was talking out of my ass when I said that.
Tried doing an unchipped run, first layer had "foggy" modifier. I got ragdolled by a launch pad and got sent head first into a spike trap, the death was almost comical in it's suddenness.
>>751408891that was the original idea, but it was cutkinda sad desu I would rather die with diginity than become their slave
>>751408834putting things in your mouth slot doesn't drink them retard
>>751409005sorry I thought you meant the cargo, no you can't remove the chip lol, just play unchipped
>>751409379why are you here? can't you go misunderstand things somewhere else?
>>751387543I thought Roza wasn't in the game? Or did someone mod her in?
Lmao first layer is fucking littered with corpses now, I saw 12 corpses on my way down
>>751406658You can become the gunsaw abomination instead
>>751409739free soup!
>>751409739There's so much free meat everywhere as a Dune that you quickly become obese from eating all of it. Fat fucking dunes.

>>751411183kek
>>751411847im complimenting him for making me feel bad about expie dying
>>751402884Did You make this?
the way this game connects to gunsaw is borderline kino
>>751407382I do! Numberries are love, numberries are life.
>Something about this place strikes you as beautiful>Literal hellYeah, sure, expie.
>>751402941I beat the game chipped on a low difficulty just by stockpiling drills, some basic equipment and rushing the last few layers
>>751413318The best one is "spider nest"
>>751384098Wrong. Females could never accomplish the mission. Only Expies are a male only species.
>>751404119Encumbered stat gains were massively nerfed in the full game. You only gain exp while moving, so you end up with much less over the course of a run.Still better than nothing, but you won't have 15 str/res by layer 5 just from carrying too much like in the demo.
>>751413887>You only gain exp while moving, so you end up with much less over the course of a run.what about being downed from carrying a minibarrel?
>>751334343This game is not particularly good, it's just tedious and boring. It's basically got all the same problems as Project Zomboid but they are ignored because furries jack off to the game.
>>751413887I had a hunch something was changed with the stat gains guess the meta is to always do training during downtime when you're crafting/sorting/thinking what to do next?
Can layer modifiers be random or are they specific? I got "toxic waste dump"
>>751413987>what about being downed from carrying a minibarrel?That does nothing.
>>751414107It's kind of weird you keep making this same post and implying the only reason anyone would play it is because they are jacking their shit to it. You got something to tell us, furchud?
>>751414238>guess the meta is to always do training during downtime when you're crafting/sorting/thinking what to do next?Yeah that's what I do. You can also work out while lockpicking and talking with traders.
>>751408834You puked and dropped the procoag, I get it.But your webm's cut right before that happens.
>>751414450Don't reply to shitposters.
>>751414389damn, he really changed the meta
So how does Milky and Dune handle misery, if you allow them to get to that point?
>751414107It's true... I play as a milky and jerk off to the barking sounds... I'm sorry
>>751414476>before that happensit happened in the webm. there is nothing more to see. it disappearing means it was puked away.
>>751414613Milky just pukes furiously, until you get to -95 where it does try to end it.Dune eats itself.
a friend of mine is saying Relaxed is the game's equivalent to "normal" while I'm trying to say Tough is the intended "standard" how do I bash his fucking skull in?
>>751414604I'm pretty sure being downed by a minibarrel had no effect in the demo, too.
>>751414881And so... They were both stupid.
>>751414881Say that it's called Normal in the demo and that the demo is harder than the full game
>>751414881"normal" difficulty is what endless gives you.Tough is nerfed from the demo as it won't increase trap density as you go deeper.
Expie writes down a very good and lifesaving tip. Always be checking for traps. Use your mouse cursor to find anything lurking behind other objects, like liquids, plants, and even corpses.
>>751415162
The new hypothermia effects are a great improvement over the demo. You couldn't see ANYTHING in the demo if you were freezing.
I did it! First attempt in the release build, I took it extremely slow and steady and the most traumatic event that occurred was a dislocated arm from a fall in layer 10.I think the game has a good difficulty curve, it peaks at layer 3-4-5, then calms down a bit until 9. I was worried it was going to ramp up exponentially and become a resource check so I'm glad that wasn't the case. It reminds me a lot of Spelunky actually, where the jungle is the initial difficulty spike, followed by ice caves which are easier but also much more punishing if you fuck up.
>>751415162Fuck. It's such a nice note and message from such a kind expie but it makes me so fucking sad. No I'm not crying I just washed my face recently.
>>751414454>You can also work out while lockpicking and talking with traders.oh, you know i never did think to workout during those, even though i know time doesnt stop when doing itYou know, I wonder how much knowledge in this game is stuff that, once you think about it, does make sense, you just never assume the game would consider adding it inlike the fact that apparently turrets are heat-based and you can avoid them by lowering your temperature a lotfancy webm btw

>>751415305>CARGO STATUS REPORT>RETRIEVEDNice, anon!>I took it extremely slowYou made good time, actually. 10 layers in 9 hours means you were descending at a good pace and probably didn't see the radline much, if at all.>I was worried it was going to ramp up exponentiallyMe too. I'd argue the difficulty peaks at layer 6 though.I'm hoping to recover the cargo for the first time today too.Enjoy playing as Milky next.
>>751415625>Milky passes out in lava
>>751414454>You can also work out while talking with traders.me browsing milky's stock
What happens when you try to hug a trader as a Milky?
so is the dev really so naive to think that if every single thing the company did was revealed to the public that they wouldn't be immediately given a shit ton of government contracts and absolved immediately?"dude if this shit gets out they're executing even the JANITOR!-" no nigga every single state on earth is going to be bidding for the company on the spotthey're gonna use sawians in a way that would make japanese war atrocities look like a joke
>>751416305instant buttsecks
>>751400724About as "fucked in the head" as people who play a game about girls getting gutted alive by zombies and biological weapons while they scream in agony and gargle in their own blood as they watch their entrails being spread around in the most gruesome and graphic detail Resident Evil (probably not the only mainstream example too).See? If you say it like that, any horror media can sound bad. Now go to bed, mom.
>>751416484Depends on how woke 2XXX gets.
>>751334343so is the game good or what?
>>751400724t.b.h. this game is way less fucked than that PS3 era Tomb Raider with the realistic gory trap deaths
>>751416993this isn't about woke it's about how humanity has always worked since the fucking dawn of timethe US government has been making contracts with AI child killer drone company Palantir and Anthropic for months now while other countries keep trying to contract other corporations selling their favorite weapons non stopwhat makes you think the "we figured out teleportation and MAKING NEW LIVING BEINGS (that we have full control over)" wouldn't become multitrillionaires on the spot no matter what came out?corporations and the wealthy don't have souls. That's for humans (and sawians in-universe)
>>751417162Maybe they aren't the first corporate entity to make artificial beings and some event previously with other companies set such a bad precident that it was largely outlawed
>>751416305You can't hug traders as a milky unless your happiness is below -50If you are, then it works as usual
Just found the EPDA where an employee meets with a milky and engages in inappropriate affection.Please maintain experimental integrity at all times, anons.Speaking of EPDAs, they can be powered and used with a small battery that has any amount of charge, even 1% works. Read them EPDAs. Not only do they provide neat lore on the Company, but they also give a fat boost of 35 INT XP.
>>751417007define "good", what is it that you actually want out of a video game?is it the best video game you will ever play? no, probably pretty far from it (not that it is in any way a "bad" game)will it give you an unforgettable, unique and interesting gameplay experience way different from anything you've played thus far? almost certainly yes
