Another one of those OCs for Subata
SEASON FINISHED
>>2250809unironically one of its top 3 best overclocks
>90% of servers "join failed"what even is the point at this point
>>2251434This happens for example if steam had an outage recently, it will resolve itself as hosts reboot their lobbies.
>enter room>engi using fatboy>abandon room
I feel like there are no good sludge builds
>>2251789sludge is quite powerful against groups, and you can set it on fire for the strongest dot of the game
>Dwarfdom is overratedThe new weapon maintenance palette is the first one that seems to actually fit the corrupter framework.
>enter haz 5+ room>players are unpromoted/bronze/bronze>abandon room
>>2251798>you can set it on firetoo bad doing so locks you to a single shitty EPC build, is more ammo costly than doing anything else, and is super inconsistent to ignite anything on top of that
>>2252218yeah you're forced to take burning nightmare on t5, so yeah I only use it with heavy hitter 12321also its not inconsistent, you have to double tap the same spot on the goo to get it to ignite, I only use it with disperser compound and bigger puddles on t1, dunno if regular sized puddles are close enough to spread the fire. Also sadly you have to give up the extra duration for more ammo, but if you got a good chokepoint going on, nothing smaller than an oppressor can get to you.also its not ammo costly, literally <2% percent if using HH, if you use it to set shit on fire then you run out of ammo fast. kite gamingor you could try memewave and stack status with gamma, or permalock in place the swarm with whatever the triple penetration oc is called
>2026>ignited bugs still randomly temp shock themselvesgsg really abandoned the game huh...
What secondary do I combo with electric platforms?
Volatile Bullets gotTime to rape burning Praetorians and Oppressors with this one
>>2252614love running it with the bomblet napalm hurricane
>>2252575magma shart diffractor for maximum fps loss, or breach cutter
>>2249057the fire wave OC is strong?
>>2252674You do big-dick damage against dreads and such, but against swarms it's better to use it like a regular flamethrower or you run out of ammo.
>>2252674Great in elimination, just pay attention to Dreadnoughts' AoE attacks
For me, it's IFG + cryo xbow with pheromones
Steeve and Percy both fully naked and oiled upWho wins the twerk off?
>>2251789i like 12221 DC paired with 32112 GC on CWCCGM with the same mods is also very strong, but the need to ignite it by yourself doesn't feel too goodoverall, the sludgepump is extremely powerful, but it shines more in premades than in pubs, if you have a friend who can play ignite gunner it feel extremely comfy (and then i would go t4a instead)
>>2252847I do not recognize these government agencies
I hate the world building behind the rivals so goddman much>hyper advanced able to land uncontested on Hoxxes>able to coexist peacefully alongside bugs who don't mind the sound of their massive shields or caretaker construction or beep boops of their robots or constant rhythmic thump of their data vaults>somehow the species behind them are unable to figure out Hoxxes is a gold mine and haven't begun strip mining operations on the planet
>>2252674Its the only crspr OC that gives you burst damage, and as with others its a green in disguise because you don't get any penalty and to activate it you hold reload. You use it as base weapon without OC, then use the nuke in emergencies/rape HVTs
>>2252847CGM is fun, but there's little incentive to make them explode because its overkill on anything that would have died anyways to the DoT. Good to quickly deal with praetorians at least.
>>2252906I'm not feeling it, the ammo consumption is gargantuan
>>2253091It has bit of a learning curve. Don't waste them loads on grunts.
I had my laggiest and biggest cave to date, on Magma Core. Completely open with literally no cover or walls at all and legitimately the size of three fuel stops in one, I think I was playing at like 24 frames for almost 15 minutes in it because everything was rendering at once.
>>2254046Your PC specs?
>>2254049https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wtvXoXh0VU
>>2253091Its literally just your panic button to delete something that's going to rape you if you don't delete it asap, in every other case its more ammo efficient to set shit on fire and let the dot deal its full damage over time
>>2254320Or against dreads, korloks etc., where the damage window is mere seconds.
>>2254650It ignites patrol bots from a surprising distance. And makes short work of nemesis.
>>2251789Disperser compound with slow mod
>>2254726>slow sludge direct effect + puddles = 13% bug max speed>wave cooker slow mod lowers that further to like 6.5% movement speedGotta ping the bug every second tho but damn they can't move
Season 3 doneTime to do Season 4
Completed my second DD as Digga
Got this from a Deep DiveHow good is it?
>>2256386Feels redundant when sticky flames and goo puddles exist.
How meh is it?
Plasma Burster Missiles gotHow good/meh/shit is it?
It's another episode of "Nemesis got BFTO'd by a Drop Pod" again
>>2256426Very good, maybe even the strongest Hurricane OC
>>2256396Pretty meh. In a tight-knit group it can function in a kind-of support role if you build it for stun. On critical weakness however it turns into an absolute monster that shreds every single grunt wave with ease, and will reliably apply status effect dead on bigger enemies too. I have a loadout slot entirely dedicated to bullet hell minigun precisely for when a crit weakness modifier pops up, it's just that good and incredibly fun. Build it 3221X, I recommend 2 for the last one.>>2256426Agree with >>2256440 PBMs are fantastic.
>>2256207MilSpec Framework is so good, probably my favorite non-DLC one alongisde Diesel Driven.>>2256380This was such a piece of cake compared to the last one as Gunna.
>>2254709Robots ofc have their own priorities. Though I don't usually have problems killing patrol bots even with sticky fuel.

>>2257339The real question is: hot bullets or aggressive venting?
>>2256481Well, actually 2nd best for that oneThis one from October 2025 was a piece of cake
>>2257358Venting is a lot of fun but I have to say hot bullets. I already burn everything close to me, and my weakness is range capability so hot bullets helps significantly. Nothing like setting a menace on fire then whipping out ye ole .44 and 2-shotting his faggot ass. It's peak
>>2256386quite good, easily one of if not THE strongest cryo OC

Another DD done as the ScuntI should have picked Vampire so please ignore the down counter
How meh/shit is it?
>>2262959Isn't this the best OC for the DRAK?
>>2262959it's incredibly niche, as it only justifies its own existence if you're literally magdumping over and over again off cooldownI might actually recommend it for dreadnought fights and caretaker fights
>>2262961It can extend your ammo massively, but TEF is the best for actually killing shit fast.
>>2261676valid pointhow about this one then?

>>2263364Thanks
Finally got all the OCs for LOK-1How good/meh/shit is this one?
I HECKING LOVE WAR CRIME!What are your thoughts on this?
>>2264783Pretty mediocre, in my opinion. All of Engie's secondaries are much better for armor breaking and Executioner simply overshadows any other LOK's OCs.
>>2264784Gay and boring but strongBig Bertha and carpet bomber kino
>>2264784I have never used it because I enjoy actually killing bugs.
>>2264783everything except explosive rounds and executioner and MAYBE sm4rt cursor suckthat OC would be fine for like, idk, dreadnoughts maybe>>2264784AC's best crowd control OC, maybe his best AC OC overall
>>2264783This OC is basically useless by employing 1 simple trick, firing when you're actually aiming at the target and using your brain.Ignores armor is pointless because you're usually using a secondary that strips armor and sets you up for potential combos like electrochem.Note: the ignores armor part does not mean you're always hitting the weakpoints. You still have to be properly "lined up".
>Bulk Detonator coming down while you're all on the DrillevatorWhat to do? Except for spamming repair on the maintenance pods
>>2265348Solo or in a group? It's usually never a problem as long as you have at least one form of slow. This includes bosco's shock bullets.
>>2265353Oh wait, >you're all onUhh yeah, just keep slowing it. Shield should be enough to make sure you don't wipe.
>>2265353>>2265357Group, we got fucked becuase not enough slowdown and our Gunner didn't put up the shield in time for the explosion.
>>2265360the shield won't protect you from the bulk's explosion if you were within its radius, and idk how it managed to catch up to you guys if everyone was shooting itthe bomblets shouldn't have even been a problem, they should've been flung out into the walls
>He didn't have the Risitas Bulk Detonator sound mod installed
>>2265376I have to be honest, I don't really know either because I just pinged the Detonator, slowed it down with my flames (it was already halfway to us with not even 1/4th of life left), went to spam repair on the Drillevator then one second later everyone was down. I just think that the greenbeard Engie on our team accidentally killed it.
>>2265140*laughs in Opressor*
>>2265504You're right... If only it was possible to walk around an enemy...
I was testing smart rifle overclocks and I really don't see why executioner is praised so much. When modded for electricity and damage, seeker rounds does the same damage while not needing to aim for anything in particular. Furthermore, the smart OS overclock with electricity puts both of those OC's to shame with similar or even in some cases superior damage, FASTER damage, and generally just feeling more like a standard burst rifle.I don't remember the exact numbers as I didn't save them, but the differences between the three are so marginal except smart OS is significantly faster. At most there's a 5% damage increase which is negligible imo.Another hot take: MPA for engi's shotgun is a slower albeit more accurate version of pump action. Pump action modded with accuracy can perform similarly while providing a faster RoF and more damage depending on the situation.Also, a clean sweep fire-aoe range +1 ammo modded grenade launcher is far more effective than any variation of Fatboy for strictly crowd clear and AOE dominance. Creating a radioactive shield-deleting field is suboptimal especially if you get flanked from behind and need to go through said field. With this fire nade launcher, you can effectively clear everything except prae's and guards but they will both suffer significant damage regardless. Because they are the slowest, they also help spread the fire to any stragglers behind the AOE range.All testing done on haz 5 sandbox.
I forgot to add-the fire nade launcher can do this 9 times vs 3-5 depending on Fatboy upgrades. RJ250 compound may give the most ammo @ 14~ however it cannot ignite guards in one shot. My build is able to ignite prae's in one shot so long as it is a direct hit, and will ignite all guards no matter what. If RJ250 would make me shoot two shots anyways, that's only 7 shots vs 9 so clean sweep is superior for the fire build
>>2265504*walks behind u*Heh, nothing personal kid
>>2265508>>2265542>HAHA, I JUST WAL... *can't get around in a thight tunnel, pisses himself and dies*gg no rez
>>2265530>It does the same damage when you mod it with electric and damageWhat? Are you using Exec. without any mods or using the weapon wrong? (Needing full locks AND shooting weakpoint)It does more damage if you're using it as intended and the most common problem is that people don't actually read how the OC works and just assume it does more damage without meeting the condition.
>>2265638Full locks shooting weak point, it's effectively the same as smart OS with electricity spec

what is your favorite all around grenade on scout?
>>2266561Can never go wrong with cryo unless you really like the ice biodome
>>2266582>throw ice>freeze yourself>get killed by swarm
>>2266561IFG since it has lots of synergy with certain upgrades and you get six of them.
>>2266561BOOMER-ang
>>2266591I love it.
years ago karl was on level 3 of an elite deep divehe fought off a swarm to make sure his team could get awaythey waited until the last moment for him to catch up but he never appearedsome say he is still down there
>>2266711I always do what I can to rescue everyone, I'm always the first one out the pod and last one in. I always standby just outside the door to make sure everyone is accounted for before loading up. I stay behind to help whoever is falling behind, and while as a scout I may go ahead to light the way-i will always come back to help guide once the path is lit. No dwarf left behind. Only in the most extreme situations as the last one standing do I ever leave someone, and that's purely so we can still even complete the mission period, but I will always try down to the last second to save whoever I can.
>>2266905john reddit in the flesh
>>2266561IFG for EliminationPhero for when I need to distract the bugs and blast them with my boomstick
>>2266905bless you
>>2266905Unless I play driller and can make a straight as an arrow tunnel to guide the little lost lamb, it's usually way too hard for them to simply walk into the pod.
>>224903360 hours later, I promoted every single dwarf and did my first EDD. Now onto silver stars for my Gunner and Drillah
I'm tired, boss...
>>2266905Meanwhile the level 129 Gold III player walks past the two super obvious driller tunnels that go straight to the drop pod and keeps dying because they're trying to parkour the cliffs leading up to it instead of using their own tools or taking the gunner's zip or engis stair case.99% of this game's difficulty is self inflicted and you can't save shitters from themselves.

What's a good armor for Scout? I like his Dark Future DLC with different paintjobs, mainly the ones that color his normal suit blue
>>2267973Dark Future is good on everyone. You might also like the Decontaminator pack paintjob on Scout since it's primarily blue.
>>2267973I like sleeveless Mk3 with monochromatic. Simple, minimalistic and very blue.

>>2268228Ossuary Depths was the only biodome that gave me serious frame drops on open caves, I wonder if it was really the pit jaws.
Also I really hope that they'll do an overall performance update soon
Fuck that, weapon balance patch whenBuff autocannon fuckkk
No but seriously, we need like a trade terminal for overclocks too.

>>2269106ac is fine, you just suck
>>2269273Nah nigger, it needs an accuracy buff at the very least. Its my fav gunner main weapon anyways and I carry even without meme OCs like neuro.But being a mainly direct damage weapon and giving it shit tier accuracy is just dumb

any gunnergods around here? how do you build to make his primaries deal more damage?he should be the one with the most kills but somehow I kill more with engie and driller and they kill FASThis secondaries are alright but his primaries feel like asshelpjust assume I have every OC(I'm working on it okay?)
>>2271768Engineers will 8 times out of 10 cuck you of most kills, that's how his sentries are. Honestly, something simple as stun + increased magazine on the Hurricane is just enough for me to keep my killstreak going where most Drillers that I play with have to constantly reload to keep up with my damage output
>>2271768Most kills = killed most swarmers, and unless you take Carpet Bomber or something similiar you're probably not going to outkill others. Gunner's strength is consistency, engi can dumb out more damage, but that comes with the cost of poor ammo efficiency.
>>2271768Burning hell, hot bullets minigunVolatile bullets revolver with at LEAST 1 damage mod and personally I like accuracyIncendiary nadesIt's a flame thrower that has a side effect of shooting flaming depleted uranium rods. Melts normies, sets big boys on fire, then revolver instakills said flaming big boysAuto cannon I spec for carpet bomber OC and use as a wave clear, secondary for big boys or HVT's that can't get hit with autocannonMiddle launcher I prefer rocket barrage, essentially the same thing as auto cannon-mass wave clear but with added single target potential-gunna
>>2272761>Burning hell, hot bullets minigunHow's BH+HB compared to BH+Aggressive Venting? I like AV because of the shorter cooldown and the added fear proc as a "get off me" tool.
>>2272955Hot bullets lets you take out menaces and shit from range. But AV works too.
>>2272955AV works well with it, but imo it's better with the 'manually reset overheat' OC

Another DD done as the Scunt as always
Finally got all the OCs for FlamethrowerWhat are your thoughts on this?
>>2273961Another comfy one it seems like.
>>2272955Refer to the below:>>2257392
Meme clean OC that I probably won't use
>>2274303It's actually pretty nice.
Yup>>2274308Is it though?
>>2273519it's good
>>2274317>Is it though?NTA, but yes. Will 1hit grunts on 4p haz5, while still acting like just the regular sludge pump. If you just want more sludge pump without any hassle, it's a great overclock for just that.
>>2271768If you're worried about kill count you're a shitter. Not surprising, coming from a guntard.
>>2274940>worried about kill countYou should be as a Gunner, if you don't kill then you aren't doing your job
>Another publisher saleAt this point I'm just tempted to buy every remaining DLC and be done with it.
>>2274303This is actually amazing. My go-to sludge pump oc. Melts so quickly but build with the slowdown modification and it'll really shine
>>2274971they're not worth it and they don't deserve any more moneyback in the day, when they couldn't stop winning? sure. now, when they couldn't give less of a shit and view updating drg, the game that made them rich, as a chore? hell no
>>2274985>>2274308What? No it sucks dick, it literally is like a 4% total dot increase, try it on sandbox. You don't even get any new breakpoint I think.Its WAY weaker than duration or damage on t5. Disperser is a better clean than that shit even when being balanced kek
>>2274954>nooo you merely damaged everything 90% while slowing them down, it doesn't count if you didn't get the finishing blow! noooo, carrying, shielding and rezzing your team doesn't count either!

>>2275168For having Left 4 Dead as such a big inspiration, it's surprising that they didn't copy-paste more of these stats.
>>2276188Yeah faggot, try it yourself.I remember you don't even get the slasher 1 shot, weak as fuck. Duration/damage should be higher and should also affect puddles.
>>2274954Guntard's number 1 job is damage prevention. This is achieved through ziplines, shields, and sustained DPS wearing down enemy health bars/armors for easy sweeping by other team mates.Of course most players are shitters and don't understand even the basics about the classes.

How do you respond to this as a gunner without sounding mad?

The Zipline Gun needs an ammo buff desu

I just played with a level 80 unpromoted russian Engie who got downed 12 times on Refinery and was obviously left behind. How can people be so bad at this game?
>>2277790>playing with a leaf-loving ruskie in the first placeEven Bosco is more reliable than that fuck lmao
>>2277794Most ruskis that I play with are just silent and don't ping which I can tolerate. I like to do the talking.
>>2277802People need to ping more in general. I'm tired of having to say I have mole every time I play Gunner.
>>2277875>using moleyou should be the one pinging enemies and then ducking behind cover
>>2276746jump and scream at the scunt to come rez you
>>2277790I regularly see players as high as platinum completely unable to find their way to the drop pod on refinery even when the pod has fall onto a pipe and you can quite literally just ride a pipe from the refinery into the drop pod.This game does a good job exposing that at least half the population is certifiably retarded.

I much prefer a solid team of all classes. Everyone has a core role in the team and it feels so shitty whenever we're missing a role imo.Last night I had a new scout join and he was playing more akin to a driller-building pipelines and not mining anything despite me pinging and trying to get his attention. Worse off was that he didn't understand he's the HVT killer of the team so while a spreader is in the fuck off top of the map behind cover lobbing piss at us, he's off in lala land building pipes while we're dying. Some monkies are too retarded to be wrangled.
>>2279747I hate lobbies that force "no duplicate classes." There are some missions that do not require one of the classes. What you mentioned with that scunt is probably a permanent greenbeard.
>>2278144Yeah, most of the time the drop pod will land near the furthest well head and I usually run circles around the refinery then take the appropriate pipeline to it. There are times though when it doesn't land close to one of them or in a difficult to reach location anyway, and I have to drill to get to the drop pod.
>>2279742I'd rather have a greenbeard Gunner than a greenbeard Engie on my team
>>2279860why?
>>2279893>Greenbeard EngieSentries immediately run out of ammoNo platformsBad hologram grenades.>Greenbeard GunnerKills grunts
>>2280119>sentries>free support that can't miss>bad holo grenades still aggro enemies>greenbeard gunner>fucking dead below his zipline 50% of the timeidk id rather have the noob engi assuming he isnt irradiating the team
>>2279893A gunner has the weakest mobility option in the game whereas an engi has 2nd most importantA gunner primarily focuses on weakening or killing crowds of enemies and taking aggro whereas the engineer is designed to setup points of defense or zones of influence that assist with supportive wave clear and fortificationA gunner has the shield which is beneficial no matter where it's placed within reason. Even a retard can make the shield useful. The engineer has the sentry, which is a high maintenance and ammo-hungry support weapon that is often forgotten about rendering it useless decor at times and often gets a noob killed while they attempt to build it-underestimating how much time they have to build or specifically WHERE they build (like in front of a korolok/spitballer etc)For a new player, they should always promote a gunner first before touching other roles. Not only because it is easiest, but it also allows a perspective of what every other class can do if in the right hands. The normie who just shoots and does the raw objective will be a STELLAR gunner but a terrible scout. If exposed to other roles, he will learn naturally what the other roles can do and when he promotes he will be a less-shotty scout.Idk, that's my take on the matter.
>>2279797>There are some missions that do not require one of the classeshave you tried playing above haz3? >>2279742>class that struggles the most with survi is better than gunner with fear and shield even a retard can utilize to a great extentanother h3 shitter
>>2280153>retards>using shields
>>2280228Even the most unpromoted Gunner of all time still puts up a shield for rezzing a teammate or resupplying.
>>2280153if you struggling with survival as engi, the dev favorite with some of the strongest kit in the game, then you're the shitter in all scenarios
>>2280233You would think that, yes. You would think that.
>>2280228I had a lobotmite who died 15 times and had less than 40 kills on a massive mining mission and that fucker burnt his shields faster than his weaponry and grenades. A retard 's natural defensive action will always be to turtle. The shield is the shell, it is literally hardwired to their singular fucking braincell to behave this way.
I laser point the objectives so my teammates can get to work while I sit around.
>>2280327Let me guess. You wear Mission Control Rubbermask.
>>2280257I do.
>swarmer warning>scarab warningYep. It's gaming time.
>>2280623>swarmer warningEz 500 kills.
>>2280623You did it as scout, right?
>>2280228They use them, on occasion. Retard engis don't know what to do with their platforms and die while setting up their turrets. >>2280243You're only taking into account the amazing burst and not the prolonged fights you're sometimes forced to endure. Also, this is a pretty common opinion among experienced 6x2 and 7x2 players who clear these difficulties on a consistent basis, just admit you're a haz3 shitter.
>>2280666Yes, Satan. Then another Scout joined.
About to 100% finish the S3 pass, what's another good one to fully complete?
>>2280789S4 for the Infected frameworks, pair it with Crimson call (wep maint 6.1) or Acid wash (pp S3 lv61, you should have now).Infected isn't well liked by many but with the right skin it can look like an infected enemy which is kind of neat.I like it for weapons builds that are supposed to be weakpoint focused.
>>2280875Love that framework on my absolutely disgusting sludge driller.
>>2280789They need to fix the unused scrip bug because I encountered that after I'm done with Season 3
>>2280875>>2280894Yeah, I think I will do that. I already use Acid Wash on my Sludge Pump but I still love my Decontaminator framework too much to swap. Still the infected frameworks look nice enough on the Biohazard suit, thanks. And nice Drillah.>>2280921>unused scrip bugWhat's that?
>>2280939See >>2256207
>>2281068I mean, can't you technically get infinite scrips with the daily challenges
>>2280670>this is a pretty common opinion among experienced 6x2 and 7x2 players who clear these difficulties on a consistent basisyes, they concur that engi is better than gunner at actually killing things
>>2281174No? After a point the season warning challenge changes to pass XP.
>>2281455Wait really? When does it do that?
>>2280875Yeah, really didn't like that framework until the new maintenance scheme dropped. >>2251901 Clashes too much with most themes unless you're committing to some schizo style.

>>2282537>>2282608>plot twist: Chucklefucks in the team are just as useless as you and the shield fizzles out after achieving nothing
As a gunna main, I use my shields more for my team than anything. Placing it behind me for them to hide in while I take aggro in front or even trail the fucks away from my team. Worst case scenario, personal shield if there are macteras or other fixed range enemies. Ziplines are exclusively for corestone or exit travel e.g. from a high point down for training bugs. -Professional gunna

Zipline lights are permanent and every little bit of light helps. And yes the extra light attached to a line attached to a second light helps make the resups look more noticeable
>>2283493Wait until you learn what ctrl does!
Do DDs/EDDs show up on the server list?
Carpeta bomber is so kino holy zamn
>>2283250Slowly, but surely.
>>2283493I tend to do these things too, although using zips to mark resupps is a new idea. How would you prevent the grabber with zips?Otherwise, I do the same shit you listed.
>>2283600you can technically grab zips to escape a grab,but the mactera has to actually fly within range of the zip and your 1st person FoV has to line up with it for you to get the prompt to grab the line
any scunts here? haven't played in a while, tried gk2 with ai stability, it felt a lot weaker since the last time i played, did they nerf it? feels like there's no point in using it over overclock fire/mercy/electrifying compared to before
>>2283647BoM is such a hassle, never felt good while using that OC.
>>2283647That's like 2 years ago man, yeah they did nerf it lolIt was basically a green OC anyway
>>2283674what are you talking about
On today's Salvage Operation fuckery, my team decided to call THREE supplies literally on the other side of the fuel cells prompting nobody except for me to actually resupply and basically forcing us to fail the last 25% of the mission.
>>2283722I'll never understand what forces people to order supplies out of reach of the triangulation/fuel cells
>>2283645Good to know. Probably won't use it since it's situational and seems finicky but again, good to know.>>2283647From my testing with AI stab, it's kinda meh all around. BoM is significantly better and if you take the stun modifier in its upgrade tree you guarantee BoM's effect or just use any other element and DEFINITELY use IFG's. Huge damage that way. AI stability was weaker compared in my testing

>>2286678Kit inspection won't change his kill count. Autocannon can still be half useful on drillevator, that's just a shitty gunner. Just tell him "hey, you're a gunner, please focus on shooting things and the scout or engi can focus repairing" and if he speaks Russian, Spanish, or just ignores you altogether, just start doing a blood ritual to have netty yahoo missle strike his house. No build inspector mod is gonna change a retard

>>2286954>Doesn't have the reaction time to power attack the leech as soon as it comes down>>2286269>>2287020Honestly I just don't understand what's the point of making it a stand-alone spinoff like couldn't have this been a gamemode in normal DRG?
>>2287089A new game generates more interest over a 'big' update, especially in a game that does not do paid dlc's. That is why overwatch made a "new" game.
>>2287093>That is why overwatch made a "new" game.Okay but OW2 was a direct sequel, Rogue Core is not: it's literally treated as a spin-off take by the devs themselves. It's not like Rogue Core also contains base DRG, it's just this roguelite gamemode
>>2287095ow2 was the same game but with a massive balance overhaul. It had no reason to be a sequel, even less since the game was f2p, and even less since they stealthkilled the pve mode instead of a big update, but they did it anyways because of the aforementioned reasons. Selling a new game will make them more money over any potential new players and cosmetic dlc sales from a big update.
>>2287087At this time there's 5 but they've said they want to add more.
>>2287127>Selling a new game will make them more moneyI mean, that much is obvious
>>2287089>couldn't this have been a gamemode in DRGYou and everyone else have asked this. I also don't see why not as well but they want to move to UE5 and create a new system of "reactions" and status effects. I think it's pretty fair to make a seperate game if they plan to have mechanical differences because you know some retards will cry if you put two of the same named things in a game but behave differently.
>>2287269That's fair, I just wonder what the player retention will be: it's like if Valve made a separate game for Mann vs. Machine in TF2.
let me in to the rogue core early access already
overtuned feed mechanism or fragmentation missiles for the hurricane?I wish salvo had a tighter spread man
>>2286954your get out of jail free perk, sar?
>>2286269It's okay. I've only been able to stomach playing it solo. The games core design makes playing with randoms or otherwise mentally slow gamers like pulling teeth. If you enjoy solo DRG you'll probably enjoy Rogue Core at least until you run out of interesting things to see (there's not a ton of weapons and caves in the game, it will happen quick) but if you like playing with a full team, DRG is still leaps and bounds better than anything Rogue Core has to offer. I'm worried about their launch day being so soon because this game is not currently in a place where I can say "yes, this needed to be a standalone release". It's an interesting idea but the execution needs a lot of work imo.
>>2286755>2 people can't fix a track at once!
>>2287542It's not really that much faster. On that note...>To this day, most people still don't realize only one person needs to repair doretta since the speed is fixed

>>2289382Have you tried... hitting your targets? In the weakpoint?
>>2289419Sure, even if you oneshot everything you run out super fast.
>>2289442What the fuck are you doing, nigga? How are you so shit?
>>2289448Not an argument.

>>2289382>how do you manage ammo?The broad strokes is to:Use a secondary that compliments your primaryUnderstand your damage, don't waste shots that do significantly more damage than the bug's health. Kite them into some sort of chip damage source like flames, goo, electric field, sentry, etc. Work as a team and understand each person's general loadout from a glance. You have 10k hours so this shouldn't be a problem.Hit your shots and in spots that count. This is one of the biggest sources of wasted ammo.For the M1K specifically.The zhukovs are a good way to clean up small stuff and finish off super low health bugs.Don't charge shot grunts. You can 1 tap them with an uncharged shot in just about all hazs.Hit weak spots, obviously.
>>2289442this nigga over here focus shotting swarmers KEKEKEK
>>2289188>He's not using Hipster or learn to manage ammo
>>2287269No it’s not. This is Overwatch Overwatch 2 Overwatch situation. Where hobknobs have overwatch make overwatch 2 then make overwatch 2 into overwatch. It’s a pure ego thing a portfolio thing.
>>2283546Yeah bro put down your gun in the middle of the fight to laser pointer like a little nerd all over the place or just put up one zipline and use your fucking eyes while shooting. In case you didn’t know the guy with zipline is called gunner and gunner is for sustain. Gunner is the guy who shoots the most out of any dwarf, he doesn’t mine as much or platform or drill, he shoots the most. Gunner is meant to do more shooting and more crowd control than any other dwarf. Stopping to shoot in the middle of a swarm for any reason other than shields is a failure for gunner. Gunner must constantly be using his primary and secondary for long periods of sustain until he’s out. Laser pointer is for in between swarms stupid
>>2283600>>2283645When the mactera drops you that’s when you eeeeeeeee onto the zipline and catch yourself or you can catch during the grab
>>2289505I don't talk to other players and I'm not going to coordinate with them, ever.>zhukovslmao, special powder or go home
>>2289637Oh no. It's retarded.
>>2289637I didnt say coordinate. I said you should kite them and that you should know by now how the game and weapons work. You're a scout, just zip to the spot that the driller is in and you're set.You don't need to say a thing and just have game sense. Some 10k hours you claim to have.
>>2289090works on my machine
>>2289530hey, retard. it you tap control, you flash your laser pointer for a fraction of a second and it highlights your entire team and mission critical equipment like resups for a few seconds afterwards. doing so causes no dps loss.

>>2291041I love the reverse cap, the color is just a bit too bright.
For me its Minimal clips m1k with shaped shells
I don't know why people say Haz3 is "bad".Yes it's less stressful, that's the point. You can also bring ANY weapon and ANY overclock you want and enjoy them, because higher difficulty pigeonholes you into specific perks to get past armor breakpoints and ammo efficiency concerns and other dumb shit.I'm glad we can pick between 3, 4, 5 and see no issue with someone being in their comfort zone rather than join haz4 due to pressure, dragging down the lobby by being the only person who can't keep up or play well enough to not be dead weight.
>>2291353You can bring ANY overclock to Haz5 too while carrying tho
>>2291353AlsoPersonally I do haz4 only for certain missions, I like the extra challenge for exterminate bosses/egg hunt/salvage, but see refineries as more of a comfy chill time and would rather have less swarms while designing my stupid rollercoasters.
>>2291353I always host as Haz5 but if I join, I can go as below as Haz3 even if I really consider Haz4 as the "standard" difficulty.
>>2286789>>2288017Okay, this shit took me almost four hours tonight. Literally three failed attempts and on the fourth one, Mission Control decided to spare us and spawn only one Bulk while spawning the Drop Pod right in front of the Drillevator.
Finally got all the OCs for GK2
A Bulk Detonator spawned just in front of me after Bosco digged out the last egg
This was on Haz4 though
>>2286789>EDDJust finished, 3 manned it (S*,G,E).The amount of those fucking crystal scans in some narrow tunnel on the other side of the map makes me want to blow my brains out. A driller would have sped that up immensely and its just constant waves of shit bugs.We ended up skipping BETC in stage 3 because there's like no nitra the entire EDD, ended with no excess ammo pods and had exactly enough for the drillevator.We had 2 bulks as well so that was great.I only went down maybe once and instantly IW it to make it to evac. Meanwhile the Gunner and Engi had double digit downs. All things considered it wasn't the worst but it was pretty low on the list of EDDs I've had simply because the lack of a 4th player.
>>2292049One of the few clean overclocks that you could argue is maybe ok. It's no AISE or BOM though, it's hard to beat those. But it's good for when you just need to put out a lot of bullets and the very fast reload feels great to keep firing.
>>2289637This is "retarded nigger" mentality. 10k hours and you still play like a retarded nigger. Nobody can help you, you're a shitter.
>>2292326We had a full team but our Driller was kinda mediocre, I literally had to tell him to stop mining gold and look for the scans on stage 3 because clock was ticking with the constant swarmers. Also my team accidentally woke up Betsy every single time despite me warning them multiple times that there'd be one in the last stage. I hate to sound this elitist but as a Gunner I was pretty proud to not even go down once (Scout's down count was like 7 then it was our Driller with 4 or 5 I think). The most awful loss though was on my second attempt when my teammates literally bodyblocked me from going to the pod because they all went down on the ramp so it was literally impossible for me to reach it without reviving them.
>>2291067Yeah not making it uniform instead of always bright blue was a major fuck up.
>>2291353Haz 3 is creative mode.
>Scrab Nest warning on Ossiran's home biome
>>2292580>YOU WANTED GOLD?>FUCK YOU, THERE'S MORE SCRABS!
>>2292580If only it was golden bugs.
>be last one standing>"DON'T PLAY SOLO COME TO US!!!"If you weren't so shit, you wouldn't need me to carry you.
Anniversary is over. What happens now
>>2294041We wait for the next Anniversary.
>>2294044>Tfw 365 days until DRG's 9th year in orbit
>>2294041Back to "work" as usual.
>>2294045*349*
Core spawn are extremely boring compared to bugs, are we really hype for an entire spinoff game involving entirely annoying health sponge chimps with zero gimmicks? what's the point of all the class abilities if you're ultimately reducing the already pretty simple complexity of the enemies to "HP bar that moves at you on the ground"
>>2294207>weI give Rogue Core one month before it dips below 1k players.
>>2294207>we
>>2294207doesn't help that they're just reskinned bugs with a bit different movement, literallythey have their own version of a praetorian, spitter etc>>2294285i think it will have a relatively stable and decent playerbase for at least a year or sobut ultimately every event is stand in place and shoot bugs, every upgrade is "do x thing x% better" or "deal half your damage as some element" not to mention the multiplayer aspect such as fighting for upgrades who gets what instead of everyone getting a separate selectionif i ever play it, i will at least wait until we have a mod so that same thing can be picked by multiple people or everyone gets their own set of upgrades
>>2294356>i think it will have a relatively stable and decent playerbase for at least a year or soI don't really want the game to completely fail but you're overselling it a bit, reminder that it's still in Early Access and apparently the game itself is quite dire in terms of content. It will most likely have a healthy population for 2/3 weeks but for a whole year? Unless GSG actively starts crunching their people and stops all the development on DRG then I can't conceivably see Rogue Core having a stable playerbase until it drops its 1.0 patch.
>>2294386>Early Access>dire amount of content>pretty badly designed "roguelike">devs didn't want to hear any feedback (except from their moderators), just bug reports>the dogshit retarded idea of repeatedly deleting people's progress during testingYeah... it's really only gonna have a playerbase composed of THE most dedicated GSG fans. Otherwise, it'll be dead in a month or two.
>>2294386>Early accessIt's currently closed ALPHA, not even EA/beta.>stops development on DRGThey aren't working on DRG at all, it's another studio hence why the recent season was lighter than the past. It's a seperate dev team and GSG is working on DRGRC.>>2294473>deleting progress during testingThey've said that from the beginning because it's an alpha. They've changed a lot in the major alpha builds which you would know if you actually kept up with the news or even at least watching the streams of the alpha over the ladt few months. Just say you understand nothing about the development and you're a pessimistic fag.
>>2294525>Just say you understand nothing about the development and you're a pessimistic fag.I've participated in alpha tests that have done this exact same thing and it's genuinely the worst fucking thing you could do, especially if the game has the smallest bit of progression or unlocks of some kind. If something new gets added or changed significantly between tests, everyone who signs up has to start all over again going through the tedious process of unlocking everything again, just to try whatever was changed/fixed/added, and they never tune said progression for the limited amount of time that these playtests are actually open for. I get it, you're a huge fan, but you could take GSG's cock out of your mouth for one moment in your life.
>>2294525>They aren't working on DRG at allI know, I'm just saying that they could very well also stop commissioning the other team to work on DRG. It would be an extreme dick move and I doubt that it'll happen.
>>22940412x xp missions only
>>2294207Rogue Core looks mid as fuck. I have zero interest in it and won't be playing it. I suspect it will be a flop.
I used to really like Big Bertha, but compared to Mortar Rounds it seems very superfluous.>worse direct damage>worse area damage/radius>worse ammo economy>better range>better accuracyIf you just move closer those last two are negated, or you just switch to a longer ranged secondary. Any thoughts? How do Big Bertha enjoyers build it?
>start up the omen>russian player immediately dies to droneCouldn’t stop laughing
>>2289760Not worth it for gunner during a swarm. Gunner should be shooting. The other classes can do that. Every milisecond of stability or hot bullets count. It’s better to triple tech fear spam, wait the long ass reload time then fear spam immediately again to give the team area control. A milisecond of waiting means getting overun or being stunned by 1 slasher that can lead to a cascade failure that wipes the whole team. Again gunner is about sustain. You can laser point the moshruum and the goo sack all you want after the swarm is done
>>2296725There are people who don't immediately check what the top segment is?
>>2296725Drones are a menace for new players, it took me like 20 omens to realize why I was randomly exploding and dying kek
>>2295142Honestly, everything I've seen and heard about it makes it really seem like the devs have never played a roguelike/lite in their life, and were just trying to jump onto the hype train.
>>2298200The sad fact is DRG was lightning in a bottle and the devs don't understand their own game. It peaked just before battle pass and seasons have just been an excuse for members of the dev team to train their coding skills which is why every new enemy has a gimmick and design that doesn't fit in with the pre-2022 enemies. Even some of the post peak weapon designs fall into this, like with the Hurricane.Hence why I doubt Rogue Core will be anything but a fotw game 99% carried by the brand name for a short while before most people move on. The devs actually don't seem to know what they're doing.
Finally got all the OCs for crossbowHow good is it?
>>2299226Cryo and fire bolts are the only ones worth using the crossbow for. Maybe specialist with chem bolts...
Finished this week's DD as the Scunt againBuild is Hipster M1K and Fire Bolt Crossbow
Got all the OCs for Boomstick
Got all the OCs for Wave Cooker
>>2294041easter
>>2299260trifork is fun, therefore worth using
Got all the OCs for Stubby
Snowball gotHow good/meh/shit is it?
>>2299709Mactera deleter. Also has an interesting property where the snowball prevents cold from dropping for a period of time.
>>2299709The ultimate anti-mactera device. If you have a scout with thermals on elimination you can use snowball to freeze dreads from long distance, it's neat.

>>2301243Actually Haz5.>>2301309On my behalf I should have probably said something in text chat before using my IW but still.
Are there any shark mouth decal on weapon skin mods for DRG?
>Industrial sabotage>low O2Yep. It's gaming time.
>Haz4>Machine Challange is a fucking Omen with Drone ReplicatorSUFFER
>>2304534Does the hacking bot have O2 tanks or not? Anyways it doesn't sound too bad since you are just going to camp near supplies pods and those do have the O2 tanks
>>2304717Yes they do.Wiki has a list
>didn't do last weeks assignment because the first mission was escort>start up this week's assignment>escort Well maybe next week...
>>2305705>escortWhy don't you like it anon
>>2305705Haz 1 or 2 and just breeze through it. Quit being a little bitch and just get it done. It takes maybe 10-15 minutes if you're even remotely competent at the game.
>>2305845Escort has awful lot of friction if the team doesn't cooperate. Every other mission you can carry even if the whole team consisted of clueless chucklefucks besides you.
>>2307382>Escort has awful lot of friction if the team doesn't cooperateIt's not that bad then again I play a ton of Gunnah and Drillah so it's not hard to put down my foot with Greenbeards. On the other hand, Industrial is fun but hell if you have a team that doesn't know how to deal with the Caretaker.
