I feel like the game could really use some kinda progression system outside of just collecting cosmetics and overclocksMining for stuff is supposed to feel more like a roulette - that's why people have been playing Minecraft for over a decade. You go mining and find rare useful resources.Meanwhile almost everything you find can be bought, and the few things that can't have barely or no use.Since the devs seem keen on expanding Hoxxes lore beyond just the bugs, why not add scattered remnants of a lost civilization? Have random events where you can discover collectibles for a trophy room on your ship?Another idea is something like a rock garden. We have morkite seeds, so why not have a room dedicated to passively cultivating ore? Make a progression system for it that isn't just "pay resources" or "finishg 5 random missions" and you've got more people coming back to the game thinking "I should check up on my rocks" and then playing a couple matches since they've got the game open already so why the hell not?Idk, just my thoughts on making going into new matches more exciting since they start to blend together quite fast the longer you play
>>1340985
>>1341004>cant spend your surplus resources or do anything with error cubes>cant find super rare collectibles that you can display in the memorial hall>cant find super rare plant seeds/alien eggs and hatch them back in your nursery/garden>cant decorate or personalize the rig in any way whatsoeverGSG came so close yet so far to making the ultimate co-op grindan game with an endless loop
>>1341030>>cant find super rare collectibles that you can display in the memorial hallThe total lack of rig customization is baffling to me. We know they can do it with holiday events. Modders do it. Even basic shit like letting players pick the lights at the bar or the color scheme of some of the metal would give so much life to the rig, never mind actually letting players display collectibles or decorations.It's such a basic thing and they can't brush it off by saying "the space rig isn't that important" when they keep adding shit to it like the arcade game or little details like the elf in the cup at the very top with the jet boots during the holidays. It's just laziness at this point.

>>1341035i feel like any change requires the rig to be reloaded and maybe they think that's a no-no
>>1341035>rig customizationHost-only cosmetics sounds like a bad idea, especially to a joincuck like me.

>>1341239Take the cryspr oc that gives you +5mt range, its so simple yet so fucking good. With the right mods you still get 5sec slow sticky, 20mt range. Also slower flow rate means more radiance usage (need to hold fire for at least 1 sec to deal heat and damage)Just set shit on fire at max range and most bugz will be dead/about to die when they reach you. Pretty good.Or take snowball cryo with microwave (with boiler ray) and delete shit at any fucking range. Boiler ray still has 50% chance yo proc on frozen enemies so you can get the triple damage without triggering useless temp shock on big targets and chaff dies all the same.t like 25 levels max rank driller

>>1341785how do you manage to be so incredibly wrong
>>1341786chaining temp shock is faster at killing big targets
>>1341798Barely faster and uses way more primary ammo
>>1341796tell me how dragging aquarqs to the minehead then scratching your balls waiting for a timer is more fun than eggs (best type btw since it's literally just xtrac but not shit) or salvage (get to explore for mini mule parts then manipulate surroundings to your liking for the events) or refining (pipes what else needs to be said) or elim
>>1341799it's way more ammo efficient since you don't need to burn 1/4 of your cwc ammo on killing a single praetit doesn't take that much primary ammo to freeze/ignite anything, radiance does 90% of the work, plus your primary is always going to have a ton more ammo than your 2ndary
>>1341810Uhh sir, your drills, axes, power attack?
>>1341807eggs are funsalvage is sitting in a cuckshed waiting for an arbitrary timer that always goes slower than it needs to because the scout won't sit in the bubble to speed it uprefining is ok but riding pipes loses its appeal when the driller just makes a beeline to the pumps, no one helps build pipes, and the fact that you aren't rewarded or punished for clearing the pipes quickly/not clearing them fast enough. you will always have the same number of leak phases at the same exact percentages no matter your skill level. you don't gain time by getting the bugs off quick, you don't lose oil by letting them beat on the pipesthe appeal of PE is that if you play well you are rewarded, and if you dilly dally you are punished. you can go as fast as you want
>>1341814What about them? They work better with temp shock too.>freeze praet>axe it once>temp shock for the kill>power attack it if just manages to surviveYou've now saved 2-3 axes for things like mactera and most of your CWC ammo for more temp shocks
>>1341815>if you play well you are rewardedthis is where you're wrong, how is watching "01:54" tick down with the only opposition being 3 grunts spawning as everyone looks at each other not knowing what to do a reward for being fast
>>1341818temp shock does only 200 damageAlso you remove the freeze status that other players can capitalize on.>freeze praet>power attack it>proceed to drill it down with barbed drills>finish it with cwc for aoe damage in 2.5mt radiusYou've now saved fucking everything
>>1341821>the only opposition being 3 grunts spawningtry not playing on hazard 3
>>1341823I don't know what point you're trying to prove when you keep moving the goal post all over the place. Yeah, if it's frozen, and your team is shooting at it, that's more efficient than spending CWC ammo on it, go figure. But this whole>freeze>power attack>drill>CWCis needlessly convoluted and clunky. You're gonna get hit by everything else while you're doing this clownshow
>>1341821PE has inflated payout and a very open map, that is your reward for having to maintain a fast pace and deposit in one place with no mule.>how is watching "01:54" tick down with the only opposition being 3 grunts spawning as everyone looks at each other not knowing what to do a reward for being fastYou are also forced to watch molly move her fat ass across the map with eggs. Less crappy on smaller egg missions but those do not pay well at all. Large egg missions you are stuck twiddling your thumbs similarly as you are with PE. Or you could do the sane thing and look for more goodies to bring into the pod that you missed while rushing, while you wait on the pod/molly. Mine some gold.

With a little bit of luck you can remove praets from existance in 4 player h5 with just a single charged shot. If you think that holding LMB, pressing Q/2 then clicking LMB couple of times is some "long setup" then maybe you should play some other game.
>>1341836why would you focus praetorians as driller anywayand you can just keep it frozen while you deal with grunts
>>1342002pump action gives you more total damage than mini shells while having AB and piercethe downside is the poor fire rate which can be mitigated by animation cancellingautism about muh breakpoints (lazymaybe) is just stupid when you are literally doing double damage per shot thanks to pierce while still having the highest total damage out of any shottie builds

>>1342040use your imagination
>>1342042>kills 90% of the enemies better>kills heavies effectively tooYes, Pump Action is the best.
>>1341708It's been my experience that 90% of the times I activate Field Medic on a downed player they just die within 5-10 seconds of being resurrected because they don't run Breathing Room even though it is objectively the most important armor mod on that tier, or they just suck and don't do anything meaningful to help after being rezzed. And most of the time you can just resurrect someone fast enough with Field Medic's passive that you don't need to use the active ability. Even during swarms, the bugs will usually target the downed dwarf so you can stand there surrounded and still get them up without wasting it.

>>1342921I love playing gunner and scout because I can engage smoothbrain and "haha I shoot bug" and "haha I mine mineral"
>>1342921This doesn’t make any sense.
>join lobby>engineer(host) blocks himself in drop pod and tabs out until we finish the missionI kneel
>>1342233because this game's code is trash, you should know it by now
I liked litophage meteorites randomly falling into the cave some time after starting the mission. I wish the game had more varied random events like these.
I hope next season is some horrific bullshit like rockpox infected rival tech dropships that crash land and crack open into dozens of baby rock apes, that are unarmored and squishy but 3x fasterjust a clown car of last seasons' greatest hits
>>1342921LOL
>>1342940>t. Mines minerals as gunner and shoots bugs as a scout
>>1343022You mean something like:>random dread spawn>rival uplink hub>nemesis spawn >korlok spawn >lithophage corruptor spawn >meteor shower impact >lithophage meteor impact>core stone>omen>ebonite>kursite?
>>1343075I think he meant event that spawns after the game starts in a manner that requires some reaction.
>>1342921>gunner is underage>engineer and driller are the only employees of a sensible age, driller having seniority>scout is old and retired>ultra buttman is old and decrepitdid I understand this right?

>>1342943>>1343125only yellow bananas is edible
>>1343075>Random dread spawnI've already had three of these fucking things since S5 started. I only had one in the entirety of S4.
>>1343147I haven't had any in S5 and had like 3 in S4
>>1343075Sorta, but what >>1343087 said. I liked that meteorites weren't just there in the caves at mission start but came raining down during the mission, and also deformed the terrain on arrival and had to be dodged. Random Dreadnought spawn and meteorites fulfill that criterion of appearing suddenly. The other items on your list do not.
>>1342921First actually funny post in one of these threads for a long time, congrats
>>1343075>random dread spawnIt's very fun when it happens, but I've only had that happen twice in my 400 hours of game time. It doesn't help that this spawn is restricted only to some mission types. I've only seen them on Mining Expeditions.In fact, I got a random Dreadnought Twins spawn within the first couple of waves in my very first mission, from the first assignment, "Objective: Conquer Hoxxes IV". On hazard 4. It really surprised my greybeard friend. I had no idea how rare that was and thought it was scripted. It left a strong impression on me and I've wished for more such random encounters ever since, but alas.
I'll never forget an otherwise unremarkable morkite refining mission that had 2 back to back dread spawns in place of the waves.I prefer fighting dreads outside of elimination missions since you wind up getting terrain thats not tailor made for them, makes for some scrappy fights since you also don't know when they'll happen so you cant even prep an arena for them in the 10 seconds youre given.
>>1343132Never made banana bread with a mushy brown banana? That shit is bananas.
>>1343193
>>1341004>>1341030They simply needed to add a cosmetic shop that takes mineral/error cubes as currency at an inflated price and it would be perfect. This is definitely something they should have thought of before people played this for 1000hours and have enough resources to buy the whole shop in one go, this is also true for player level rewards.

>>1343230>take trophies from all the dreadnoughts, nemeses and other big things you killThe fact that we don't have the DRG equivalent of strange counters for our weapons is criminal. The game already keeps track of individual bugs killed, as you can see in the bestiary, and it also tracks a whole bunch of useless information like distance walked. They absolutely could have given us a new number to chase endlessly. Even if the only purpose of its existence would be to tickle the autism a bit.
>>1342855I really like it. I’m used to high recoil shooters and having my bullets go exactly where I’m aiming is nice. I also mostly play solo haz5 more bugs so it’s not like the game demands a lot from my loadouts

>>1343256Greed. Beginners dont have much unlocked, so they need cash the most.Harder modes should instead have a non-monetary incentives like trophies (as been discussed earlier in the thread) so that it's more rewarding to experienced players than new ones.
ZIP! ZOOM!
>>1343256Some no-promotion players are fine, what really needs to happen is use the player's progress on the going lethal assignments as a restriction for joining public H5 and H5+ games until they've cleared them. Private games behave as currently, and being in the rig with the host changing difficulty should also stay the same.People still need to make to jump from H4 to H5 eventually, they'll get eaten alive until they learn to account for the difference, but there should at least be a baseline expectation that they can clear the difficulty below it first.
>>1343277>...>I CAN'T FEEL MY BEARD, HEEEELP
>>1343273Still doesn't make sense to me, if you don't have a lot of overclocks and upgrades unlocked, there isn't a lot of places to spend money on.
im so fucking tired bros
>>1343256>Confidence, is a slow, and insidious killer!
>>1343124S is reserved for liquid morkite, it's a rollercoaster tycoon crossover.
>>1343304>there isn't a lot of places to spend money on.>16 unlockable weapons>12 unlockable grenades>24 weapons worth of mods>mods for tools, pickaxe, and armor for each class (formerly flares too)>first promotions for all classes>the entirety of the shop>and they start with 0 of everything>there isn't a lot of places to spend money on.Even before the overclock/promotion grind and the eventual cleaning out of the shop, the game frontloads a lot of shit that you gotta pay for before you truly have the baseline class options made fully available.A lot of people hated scout because their first impression was the pre-buff GK2 and they had to stomach that until they finally could unlock the M1k. The new player onboarding experience is a lot to take in, and a lot to pay out with not enough to afford it.

>drillevator didn't drill the crystal >everyone stuck way above ground>scout zips down>everyone else falls down and diesAmazing game
>>1343312You have to play dozens of games and level up before you get all the weapons and greandes though, and you don't have to buy all mods for all the weapons. The shop is entirely cosmetics.I don't know if the experience is that different if you only main a single class cause I spread out my early games on all 4 classes, but I do remember having to play a lot of games before being able to buy the different weapons and grenades.
>>1343315>1 guy taking 4 players worth of aggro because cowards are on the zipline againLearn to cc the corespawn and the event gets trivialized without you needing to put on a diaper first.I hope they give them a jockey grab or something specifically for people on zips so people have to learn how to do the fight.
>>1343321>I don't know if the experience is that different if you only main a single class cause I spread out my early games on all 4 classes, but I do remember having to play a lot of games before being able to buy the different weapons and grenades.Because overclocks, machine events, and deep dives are off limits until you've promoted, the general advice is to main until you promote once so you can get started on the overclock grind sooner rather than later.Its a bit gross that endgame can poison the experience as early as someone's first mission.
>>1343324>Learn to cc the corespawnYeah good luck with that on 5 2222 with 3 retards.
>>1343327Of the shitters who joined my team, one was unpromoted and the other had 1 promotion. They shouldn't have a lot of overclocks to spend money on since the game drip feeds them.None of this really excuses why they joined a difficulty they weren't prepared for. If you're a shitter who can't contribute, don't join hard mode. It's quite simple.
>>1343329Then don't play H5+2222 with random retards. Take off the enemy damage and/or player vuln. Maybe have just 1 point in each? Also maybe coordinate an actual plan with your team before starting? Tell them not to zipcamp. Have the whole team killing spawns while scout focuses crystal? Have the driller drill the stone open in 0.5 seconds when he can? Its a very simple event.
>>1343345>Then don't play H5+2222 with random retardsI can carry through everything else except core stone because it doesn't time out like every other event.>Also maybe coordinate an actual plan with your team before starting?Motherfucker if they cant even follow the basic instruction of "get on the zipline" why would they listen to anything else?
>>1343315where's that "ziplines are useless" faggot now?

QUIZ: You're hosting a Morkite Refinery mission when suddenly your teammate begins building this pipeline.Do you kick them or let them cook?

>>1343399If he's gotten that far into it thats not "suddenly", there was already plenty of time for me to have stopped him if I wanted to.However I have a very simple principle for him to follow: he built it, he will maintain it.Most pipelines are made responsibly so that all dwarves are able to repair them and be quickly dispatched towards. If you intentionally make a pipeline thats both a pain to clear bugs off of and a pain to simply get to the break points, youve nominated yourself to be the chief executive of dealing with it on your own.The only time that a wacky pipeline becomes an issue is if there's a warning that is regularly throwing extra enemies at us and sapping our ammo (mactera plague, swarmageddon, rival presence, etc) or if the culprit is avidly refusing to lay in the bed they've made and/or is grieving the team in other ways.There is only so much nitra in the cave, generally there is going to be more than enough to take care of everything as well as any events that spawned. But if it gets to the point where the team is actively being strained then they've earned a trip to the medbay with the rest of the team when we inevitably die trying to melee everything to death.

>>1343767>it would make the fight even more trivial to one group while making it unreasonably hard for another.Good. It would teach people to properly build classes/teams for different missions while still allowing shitters or autists to play it their way if they absolutely insisted. Variation in playstyles and outcomes = good, everyone having the same milquetoast experience in the interest of fairness = bad.

>>1344028ah yes bunkering, truly the peak of skill in drg. not like oppressors and bulks exist and fighting in open areas is actually fun
>>1343588what is your definition of good then
>>1344034>ah yes zipline camping, truly the peak of skill in drg. not like acid spitters and mactera exist and fighting in cramped areas is actually funeveryone has so much CC that bulks aren't an issue, oppressors die to like 2 power attacks and some chip dmg, and the driller can just dig an escape tunnel at any point
>>1344052Actually useful for traversal, I'd guess. All the other tools do the zipline's job better, without spending a quarter of your ammo.
>>1344060guess what, none of them can do what the zipline does uniquely for the entire team.the only thing that's comparable is the grappling hook and that comes with the caveat of not being useful to anyone other than the scout.it doesn't need to be as good as the grapple hook but for everyone because it's counterbalanced by the rest of gunner's kit.gameplay elements don't exist in isolation, you aren't smart. you don't even understand what the zipline can do in the first place.
>>1344065NTA, but that's cap. A platform bridge with a gap in the middle does the same job, with the added benefit of never falling off. You just kill everything on one end and jump over the gap to kite everything that survived.
>>1344057i didn't mean zipline camping at all, i meant using it as an anti-fall damage tool so you don't have to stay in one place and can continue running around but ok
>>1344076>buh buh buh muh platform construct does the same thingno it doesn't. it does a couple of similar things but it doesn't do all of the things.get your zoomer lingo the fuck out of here.

>>1344079>No argumentI concept your aggression
>>1344079yeah it does. it keeps you safe from ground-based bugs and fall dmg, and it even clumps up all the bugs instead of spreading them out like a zipline does
>>1344092>it keeps you safe from ground-based bugs bugs will walk over platforms if their pathfinding cant find any other way to get to youit's painful how few people know how platforms work and how to use them to actually literally direct the flow of bugs to go where you want them

Do you think that just because two tools can accomplish the same task that they're entirely interchangeable?The creative depth of this fucking thread extends only as far as the elevator pitch for what their basic operation is. Momentum doesn't exist, the grapple just teleports you from one point to another and only for mining minerals. Molding terrain isn't a thing, you must only drill straight lines to the objective and drop pod. Platforms exist as DRG's yellow paint telling the scout where to climb on the wall, and otherwise are used only as stairs. And ziplines only connect 2 points in space just like the drills but in empty space instead of in the wall.Every single one of the mobility tools are multi-function and interact with the rest of their respective class's other tools, it's entirely the fault of the user for only thinking they have one purpose. You don't blame the hammer for constructing a worthless garbage shed, you blame the incompetent carpenter.

>>1344161>all anyone uses them for are camping, sliding down tunnels a lil faster while dash is on cooldown, or grabbing minerals the scout wontIt is a sad truth. You can join any game and basically beat a gunner sliding up anywhere on his stairmaster by just climbing, or make it down nearly as fast by strategically falling. I see the exact type of zipline usage you are describing all the time, it really is depressing

>>1344275you can temp shock bet-c's proto-rockpox blisters
>>1344298there's no winning. the host is obviously tired of not having a scout and being without light, or having two scouts and somehow being just as blind as before but lacking on firepower, but the tradeoff is you get teams like that
cluster missiles should detonate by simple tapping R and not holding itor by pressing LMB again
>>1344310just be fucking patient, someone is going to make a mod for having another hotkey.
i was not prepared for the increased enemy speed and increased friendly/self damagei'm actually kinda careless and retarded even in h5
Having only used CM in its current form, I don't see the issue, it feels fine holding RAlso, reminder that fall damage scaling with hazard level is dumb. I'm fine with everything else scaling with haz lvl, but not fall dmg. It's not like the gravity is higher; your jumps aren't affected, and you don't fall any faster. It just punishes you for getting used to falls from certain heights in lower hazards. A four foot fall in hazard 4 now suddenly breaks both your shield and your legs and downs you in hazard 5 if you've just been revived, it's ridiculous. It's like the one thing that should stay consistent between hazards.And no, I don't die to it all the time, I just think it's a poor design decision and was reminded of it by the player vulnerability modifier.
>>1344311SimpleQOL guy is looking into it.
>>1344298Gunners who cant get kills make me so mad. It's your one job just click on the bugs how do you fuck this up
>>1344195Haz5+ 2222 drillers make wide, interconnected networks of tunnels that you can easily evade a horde in. Haz4 drillers just make a single narrow straight line tunnel like retards
>>1344319gunner's job isn't to kill bugsdriller and engi are kind of better at it
>>1344322Driller and Engi are good at killing trashGunner is good at killing everything.
when i play scout on h5+ i run ahead, gather the horde together, and herd them back to our AOE classes
>>1344331Isn't that the way to play? be the bait?
>>1344331>>1344332There is a limit to how many bugs can be aggrod to one player at a time.
Some of you guys are pretty cool. Don't come to Hoxxes tomorrow.
>>1344321>interconnected networks of tunnels that you can easily evade a horde inthe bugs also use the tunnels, that's how they are programmed. Not 100% of the bugs are aggroed to the players, some will disperse and cover a wider areas to take bites at kiting players, and on 2222, those bites will easily break shield and damage health.
can I make a buzz lightyear with the new paints?

All the fighting, nitpicking, minmaxing, elitism and arguing over every little thing in this thread just proves nobody here plays the game with friends. When the game is actually really fucking fun, no matter if the hazard is 4 or 5, no matter if someone has a "bad" upgrade or overclock, no matter if someone has meme perks or mines gold. Why don't you have friends, /drg/?

>>1344363Wym? Gunner zips and jettyboots are a match made in heaven. Maybe play on difficulties higher than Haz2 and you'll learn that gravity still hurts when a greenbeard(you) overheats his boots while zooming accross the cave.
>>1344389Nice bait, ChatGPT
>>1344421>jetty boots + ziplines are a good combo because the jetty boots overheat>also only hazlet greenbeards overheat their jetty bootsWhy are you admitting to be a hazlet shitter?

Any vanillabros moving up from Haz5 into Haz5+ to get a taste of what modchads have been playing on? How's your experience been so far?For me, More Enemies 2 is peak fun, but I guess that's a popular sentiment. I generally feel pretty comfortable with that setting on every mission, I usually add Aggressive Enemies 1, too, or 2 if I'm feeling spicy.I don't much like the other two modifiers, but when the mission has beneficial anomalies like Rich Atmosphere, Critical Weakness etc, I'll usually add some to increase the payout.So far I've tried 5+2222 a couple times in some easy missions with beneficial anomalies, short morkite mining and elims. I'll admit the setting feels like proper Hazard 6 with how heckin' hard everything is. I haven't been able to complete a single mission, but it was close once. We died on the run back to the escape pod. I like how difficult the resupply situation becomes and forces everyone to be very mindful of nitra.Tbdesu Haz5+ is probably the best addition of the season, it introduces a new "endgame" in place of EDDs. I really like the added challenge.
>>1344470ok lets duo haz5+? i wanna see your performance
>>1344476>she's begging to be carriedGunnersisters, she is making us look bad...
>>1344481ok so just troll and nothing important
>>1344457Haz5+ is all about DoTs and debuffs. I would run stun burning hell with VB and throw down shields as often as possible. If you want to be really safe use stun bullet hell with aggressive venting. Pile up bugs around you and then nuke em with AV.
>>1344385My friends get filtered on the difficulties I like to play on.

>why, yes. I do carry the game and purposefully go down from time to time when it's safe so that the others don't feel too bad. How did you know?
>>1344505problem with bullet hell stun is: stun doesn't last forever + takes very long to build up to AVi am talking about maxed haz5+ soloin practice it looks like you're spinning all the time to build up overheat, so you get slowed and eventually overwhelmed by swarm + spittersneed somethjing more mobile and faster hard hitting

Everytime I play the sabo as a driller I end up hard carrying caretaker
>>1344637>haz4why are you complaining about shitters in the shitter containment haz?
>>1344640Yes, every competent Driller funs fire during sabo and finds a way to drop c4 on top during the vent phase. You're not special.
>>1344642>You're only allowed to complain if you play max difficulty
>>1344642>what is Haz3Haz4 is more of an intermediate zone
>>1344643If it were only that, I almost always end up doing the damage to rest of the caretaker as well as everyone else hides next to supply pods and go down
just had a game where some guy gained 10 levels after 1 missionhe was rank 200 something as wellwhat was going on? cheats? mods?

>>1344457Carpet Bomber 32212 if you're carrying, Minelayer System 12222 if you have a decent teamLead Spray 13232
>>1344457>>1344912an alternative to Carpet Bomber is Composite Drums 32222 but from my experience it's not as effective as Carpet Bomber but not by much, it does give a lot more ammo but if you have a decent team you're not gonna need that much ammo at all, might be better than Carpet Bomber for carrying
>>1344849I'm driller, I clear caves. Singletarget should be other class' problem. But I have to carry and plink the caretaker to death with whatever I have.
>>1344874^
>>1344600Grunts dont have stun cooldown and it's not that difficult to constantly reapply it with bullet hell if you sweep your crosshair around. 5+ doesn't have that many extra enemies so you only need 1 or 2 AV per swarm to clear all the trash. You need to kite in a circle to pile everything up around you. It's a little tricky but definitely doable.
>>1344936yeah not what i asked, what are you using as a driller to kill the caretaker since you're carrying
>>1344944goo and radiation, since I was grinding the weapon mastery levels
>>1344953>goo>radiation cwc>on sabo>against caretakeroh my god youre the 12 deaths guy 'i carried' guy
>>1344976Actually I went down one time, two of the other guys were greenbeards, so I can't blame the too much. Also it was low gravity, so the goo wasn't all that useful at range. The radiation DoT ended up doing most of the sniping for me.Still annoying to be the only one plinking at the eyes.
>>1344976He's the most insecure player in this generalAll he does is whinge about gunner then post his carry jobs with 12 deaths
>>1345108p sure he criticized everyone not just gunner
kinda sucks how gunner is unplayable without born ready, even the zipline launcher takes a billion years to reload
>>1344912how the h*ck are you recommending carpet bomber when mortar rounds now exist
mortar is a broken, powercrept OC and will be nerfed soon. mortar OC is for lazy casuals/tryhard metafags and i do not recommend to anyone. carpet bomber is still the more soulful and honest OC
Real Gunners run Combat Mobility anyway
indirect replying just makes you seem petty and weird, your pick of ls 13232 is also very shit, it's 13231, and cm honestly
>>1345163so he can hit stuff farther than 10 feet away
>>1345168Carpet bomber is the supreme grunt mulcherHitscan, 9999 ammo, no friendly fire aoe, 9999 mag size. If shit did a bit more direct damage it would be great.Mortar is great and does single target damage and swarm control, but it has plenty drawbacks.
>>1344457Single target primary + hellfire coilgun (with fear)Carries 99% of the games
>>1344849Not him, but sabotage is the only mission type where explosive reload subata is a justifiable option.
>>1345175>HitscanI tried mortar for a few games but went right back to carpet bomber and this was a big reason. Nothing quite like raining hell on some bugs from across the map.
The pump shotty oc is honestly fine. It's my go-to on elimination missions, its obviously not as powerful as MPAin my opinion they should merge MPA and pump together.

>>1345259He said burst not bust.
>>1345168idk about carpet bomber but splintering shells has like 4k more total damage than mortar.
as a newtard, i don't see any reason to use carpet bomb over splintering shells, the numbers don't add upno modscb has 7 direct and 12 aoe ss has 14 direct and 10 aoeisn't ss better? and the aoe is only 0.6 lessgrant me your knowledge on why cb is better please

>>1345298https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmxKCQwa1DcCB is great, but you are forced to switch to your secondary to anything that's not a swarmer, slasher or grunt.I like it. Play with both a few times and see which one is more fun to use for you.I like CB more, just switch to my elephant rounds / six shooter / homebrew powder bulldog and snipe anything with explosion resist.

>>1345481Maybe the males are lodged inside them or they have sex one time and then oumo out eggs by the thousands like happens with some organisms.
>>1345223Gunner's ammo efficiency is a meme. On a team of (not shitters) with 4-of, everyone will deplete ammo at a similar rate and at the end of the mission Engineer will have 30-40% of the kills, Driller 25-35%, Gunner 25-35%, and Scout 15-25%. Muh Gunner sustain only matters when you're playing with scrubs who never use their secondary, can't aim, and have shit weapon builds, and since these are usually hazlets who don't play 4 or 5 technically having more bullets than everyone else doesn't matter because everything dies to sneezing on haz 3 and below anyways. The math of the game is very solid, even if it's not what the devs intended. When played by someone competent, Gunner has no especial advantage over Engineer or Driller for kills per resource.
>>1345560>killstatsEngi and drilla killed the most swarmers. That's it.
>>1345560words words wordsI play gunner because I there's nothing more metal than gunning down hordes of space spiders with reckless abandon
What this game needs is some on-screen damage meter mod like WoW addons Recount, Skada or Details. Then we could settle this "who carries the most" dispute once and for all.

>>1345589Yeah but I'm fucking out of ammo
Any other Oppressor-riders here?
>>1345588NoIn fact, it's the last thing this game needsI don't care how autistic you want to be in this thread, don't bring the rest of the playerbase into it
>>1345560Gunner can push through dense swarms, deal with any bug at any distance, and make space with his shields. Not something you have to worry about in vanilla difficulty but on modded when you're on the clock and you have to get through a cave with a dozen spitballers, breeders, mactera, etc before the next swarm hits he is invaluable.
>>1345259I never said single target, I meant burst clear like breach cutter and arguably sticky flames, things that delete everything near you in few shotsgunner lays down sustained fire at long range with great ammo economy (not minigun naturally)
>>1345601Bro how is LSLS mulching bugs not burst clear but sticky flames which can't even kill guards quickly is.
>>1345560there mere fact you even mentioned haz4 tells me you're a hazlet yourselfgunner's crowd control from autocannon fear or hurricane stun are essential for haz5+ with the aggressive modifier

Shart Diffractor armor break only works on direct beam damage, right?
>>1345616Proofs?
>>1345635It works the same on every weapon. Synergizes with direct damage, does nothing with radial damage.
>>1345708So all the Sharty T4 upgrades are for direct damage only? That's lame.
>0 upgrades coilgun gets to do 130 damage that ignores armor (and can still get weakpoint damage for some reason) + guaranteed trail damage>max damage elephant rounds bulldog only does 128 damage to light armor + only 50% chance for neurotoxinWhy does GSG consider this balanced?
>>1345770With bulldog you click and damage comes out immediately. For coilgun you have to click-hold to slow down and then release.The speed at which you can output damage is an important factor on a real difficulty setting.
>>1345782With t5b, it takes less than a third of a second to fully chargeThat's faster than any focus shot on the M1000
>>1345792I meant t2c, of courseThe point is, just on pure damage numbers alone base coilgun is straight up better than any bulldog, and then it ALSO comes with massive utility in fear, damage resist and electric trail
>>1345809Coilgun slows you down, is not a repeating firearm (unless you take TTC), still requires prep to be able to fire, deals less damage to large targets due to its damage type, and doesn't actually get a weakpoint modifier.The guns serve different purposes and hit different breakpoints on different enemies. You cant surgically compare their performance 1:1 in a sterile testing chamber while ignoring a lot of nuance that make their differences more meaningful.If anything you'd have a better time comparing the bulldog with BRT since they do serve similar purposes and have more analogous functionality to one another.
>>1345814Are you joking?In practice, the only time you ever use bulldog as a "repeating firearm" is if you're grinding up to a praet/oppressor's ass and unloading. 99% of the time you're a firing a single shot, then going back to your primary.In practice, the prep time of waiting for the coilgun to charge is the exact same as actually aiming the bulldog to hit a weakpoint. (But I'm sure you're a god gamer that routinely outsnipes aimbots, so that doesn't apply to you, right?)In practice, the 60% extra weakpoint damage doesn't matter, because coilgun has enough base damage to already hit those same breakpoints without it.
>>1345835>99% of the time you're a firing a single shot, then going back to your primary.Spoken like someone who has never dealt with more than 1 bug on his screen.
>>1345852Oh right, my mistake. I forgot bulldog is so shit it needs multiple shots to take out anything bigger than a grunt.
>>1345835coilgun is shit, accept it and shut up
>>1345868mole
Even if coilgun outright healed bugs instead of doing damage, the 250% fear in a 5m radius would make it better than any of the other gunner secondaries

>>1345916t. Elden Ring audience
>>1345916It's not supposed to be balanced.
>>1345916Not impossible, just not fun. Only more enemies feels good. Making everything an hp sponge that can one tap you is boring autism. If I wanted to sit there clicking on something 20 times until it dies I'd play some faggy MMO. I want to feel like I'm killing bugs, not firing bullets into boulders until they randomly break.
so does anyone else agree that the new mission type is pretty ass?I feel that you spend way too much time on finding the damn crystals, and not enough on the drilling platform. Nothing happening when you get to the geode sucks, too.
>>1346077i feel the same
>>1346077Search is fineElevator is Doretta 2, but with mandatory E holding and no room breaching.Geode and escape is too easy.There should be PE style ramping swarms once you breach the geode that last for the rest of the mission so you at least have some pressure to get in and get out while also getting something to do during the escape.
>>1346077i love it
>>1345916i just did 3 hour session spamming maxed haz5+ with a friend. we lost 1 missionits possible, just improve ur skill and maybe ur build. cave layout matters a lot, you need room to kite and build that allows a lot of cc. be fast on exploring and mining nitrau can do it
>>1346096Forgot to say, we only got to play one mission.
>>1346077It's not great but it was free. I've only spent 30 € on DRG thru out the years and that does not even pay for 1 hour of dev time so I can't complain.

I changed some graphics setting and now my drak projectiles are shards instead of bubbles, what's doing this? Don't tell me it's the AoE upgrade or the bouncy shot OC

>>1346668You'd do a better job at HVT killing if you used OCs that actually did damage.
does anyone know if the t1c upgrade will increase the explosion radius of the puddle when you ignite them with the Combustive Goo Mix OC?
>>1346676sure, damage overclocks would do more damage, but i dont have any issues killing HVTs already with hoverclock. the extra utility/survivability of being able to float literally forever outweighs a little extra damage in my opinion. also, hoverclock is f*n.
>>1346683Then why do you need special powder as well? It's bit of an overkill to take both.
>>1346692there's no point in taking hoverclock without special powder
>>1346695(You)
Fun way to build scout crossbow?
>>1346712What you need it to do?
>>1346716be worth picking over the other weapons, basicallyI'd like to kill big things
>>1346717electric + trifork with cryo
>>1346724add magnetic shaft, marked for death and cryo nades for max damage
>>1346717Phero+one of the elemental bolts if ypu want to clear swarmsElectric+Trifork for single target, combine with electrifying reload to combo
>>1346681it won't, but it'll make it easier to hit multiple enemies with the same goo splat
>>1346717unfortunately most big things have crossbow resistance (yes that's a thing)trifork is good but eats ammo super fasti like the clean velocity one>electric>special ammo>reload>speed on kill>magneticstick them with a taser then dump normals>>1346725lil bro watched that rapeyron video where he tried to set up that combo like 8 times and failed 7 of them

>Want to continue Riven>But keep coming back to DRG H5 2222the addiction ADHD is real, bros
>>1346765this is how my attempt at playing Rain World died
>>1346692because special powder is also funspecial powder * hoverclock = even more fun
>>1346765>Rivenone of the best games I ever played, it's one of those games I wish never ended
>>1346765Go finish Riven right fucking now nigger
>>1346772Not really, SP is zoomzoom fast while Hoverclock is chill. Juggling between them both and Grapple means you're spending too much time just wanking in the air and not doing anything useful. Like, if you want to just vibe on solo Haz1, be my quest, but that is hardly an effective build outside some specific circumistances.
>>1346077It's okay, fairly boring and not great, but not offensively bad like Escort is. My expectations of GSG are so low nowadays even competence blows my socks off so I can't hate it.
>>1346817fair point, i can see this build really struggling in h5 2222, but i've never had any problems or complaints running this as my main build in h5/EDDs or below.with hoverclock i can survive anything, and with special powder i can be anywhere. scout is, first and foremost a support class, so i believe the increase in utility outweighs the loss in damage (which is still enough to handle any HVT).
How the fuck is Blood Sugar an "anomaly"? It's as obnoxious as Low O2 is.
>one teammate is far higher level than anyone else (2 platinum stars in an otherwise all-bronze team)>using a mod to spam voicelines like "MUSHROOM", "WE'RE RICH!", burping and farting noises, and even "BULK DETONATOR!" over and over again.>still goes down more than twice the rest of the team combined
>>1346851The moment somebody busts out one of those soundboards, I just leave the lobby. They’re always annoying as fuck.
>>1340663so is Smrt Trigger officially the worst overclock in the game or does that award belong to Conductive Thermals?
>>1346846Play on a real hazard level so you have some bugs to shoot. there's sugar everywhere I cannot die unless I ram my face into a detonator
>>1346563Nigger your infinite range perfect accuracy hitscan weapon?Even with epc you can kill spitters easily
>>1346871Burst Fire and Micro Flechettes existSmrt Trigger also isn't even actually bad at all, it's just the base LOK that's shit. It's easily the 3rd best OC for it after ECR/Exec.
>>1346889I just wish smrt trigger had ANYTHING to make up for the fact you'll be hitting light armor more often than not. There's literally no reason to use it if you're just going to be waiting for openings on glaring weak spots when executioner is an option...
>>1346893The base gun already has 150% armor break, so you'll be doing full damage over 90% of the time. Not that it's enough to actually be worth using over Exec/ECR since it applies to them too.I can't emphasize enough that the OC isn't the problem, the gun as a whole desperately needs a revamp. Half the mod tree makes the weapon worse.
>>1346914Its very telling that the devs design around haz 2 considering all of the mods on the Lok that make it worse (read: most of them, OCs inclusive) dont actually matter when there are at most 4 bugs in the cave, let alone on the screen.Its a shame because the gun and its mechanics are interesting, probably the most interesting base gun of all of the S1 primaries and of Engi's other primaries. But the moment you introduce weapon mods you see all of the competition pull ahead because they can be made to do different things and you have the option to build in different and sometimes drastic ways.
>>1346931The LOK is a useless meme gun. Most enemies are slow and big enough that even shitters can hit them at 20m away and it's worthless in close quarters brawls where 90% of the game's lethal combat takes place.
>>1346776>>1346790So its gud?I played outer wilds and enjoyed it
Lmao zipline cheese breaks the core stone event. They need to include some projectile throwing enemies.
>>1346859Devs need to ban that shit. That and "modders" running 20 quality of life "mods" thinking they are not cheaters.
>>1346970Let Gunners have one(1) thing. Please, they need it.
>>1346859Nah sometimes they're funny. Just like with any soundboard, whats important is restraint from spamming it all the time>driller throws neurotoxin grenade and plays a fart>scout falls to his death from the ceiling. Mockingly play falling voice lines over his downed body>all dwarves pile into the droppod and one guy going (you) (you) (you) (you) (you) as the doors close

The one that's even slower at killing acid spreaders?Looks like I actually forgot to mention I was playing duck and cover at the time
You know what vexes me? The fact that not a singel weapon has all 3 weapon upgrades for each tier; including support and traversal tools. So many inbalances could have been fixed if they just filled in those gaps and give us more options to chose from.How about you fags be useful and give some ideas what to add, move, replace or get rid off. Here's an idea, for the crossbow, on tier 4, there are only 2 upgrades, a third upgrade could be an automatic reload so you aren't required to use born ready while using the crossbow.
>>1347299What'd be the point? Adding more options would be bloat or conflict with what's already there, and it won't get added anyway
Anyone wanna play DRG with me? Looking for some friends to play. I'm kind of new and so is the friend I play with.

>>1347338Rollerniggers are the sole reason to take armor break lmaoDevs finally killed the heat mod bug on hyperpropellant so no reason to not take armor break on it.It 1 shot deletes rollggas at hz5 4p lmao
>>1347363>>1347372Haz5+8 demands bunkers. It's non-negatiable. The only way to guarantee a win on Haz5+8 is with bunkers. Every single one of the new overclocks are designed for bunkers, all of them. Season 6 is literally bunker up: the update.

>>1348854What a dumb reaponse. Gunner's terrain breaking guns have a few pretty good applications, such as shooting down red sugar from ceiling or the beamers spikes on escort missions. Shooting down minerals is less useful thanks for them getti g stuck, but can be a life-saver in tough situations. But corestone is too thick to shoot through in reasonable time and wastes a ton of ammo.

More drillers should start to refuse for drill to pod if teammates are dense retards
Haz5+2222 is kicking my ass. Even with only More Enemies 2 I sometimes run into highly leveled people who get overwhelmed, and fail to carry myself. The upside is that whenever I go back to Haz5 now, it feels comfy and relaxing, like Haz4 used to before Season 5 dropped.

How the hell do you convince these (not veterans, but not complete newb either) Guntards to use their shieldsI'm tired of seeing Bronze 3 ~ Diamond 3 using their [[[Shields]]] as a revive tool
>>1348961you literally can't>"hey gunner you can use your shield proactively to prevent downs instead of just for revives"and you'll get one of 4 responses>guntard doesn't know what proactive means>gunner makes the argument that if he uses them now he won't have them later for revives (which won't happen if he just uses them)>"dont tell mi how 2 pley">ignores you/doesn't read chat
>most engineers don't use their plats proactively >most scouts don't use their flares proactively>most drillers don't use their drills proactively>most gunners don't use their shields proactively>only the latter is singled outTwo conclusions: Gunnerwhiners are shitters that keep going down and need the Chadshield to save them and are angry they didn't get it.The second: The average player isn't able to think proactively. This goes for all classes.
>>1349026Shield the fucking hackerbot and Dotty you fool, not me
>>1349026you genuinely don't know what proactively means, which is kind of ironic since you're being reactive by not thinking what you said through at all;if an engineer were to only use his plats reactively, he'd exclusively use them to break his own falls vs putting them under minerals, making bridges, or other structures like staircases, which is observably not the case. A scout would first have to use his flare gun at all for it to be proactive/reactive, and a driller would only start drilling once a swarm started. None of these make sense because this simply doesn't happenYou're clearly just retarded, and what's worse, you're choosing to act this way on purpose
