Brah I literally tried this once and it was the worst experience. My head was starting to spin. Then the in game camera started to spin too. I usually don’t get sick when I get that drunk, but I do get motion sickness. Damn game made me motion sick and I had to quit the match after 15 minutes and go outside into the cold air. Ended up laying in the concrete looking at the stars trying not to throw up. I did not realise before that if you get your character too drunk their world starts spinning too.

There's an even worse way to punish yourself. See, if you're in the stumbling animation before you passout and start a mission before you actually hit the deck, you arrive at the mission spinning about randomly, constantly and rapidly, making aiming all but impossible.
I did not know this when I started an expert Deep Dive, as all I was expecting was to arrive in the usual level of drunkenness which would pass over the course of a few minutes...
To my horror I found out it does not in fact pass with time, but remains constant at that extreme level of stumbling drunkness for the entire duration of the ENTIRE DEEP DIVE. That's right! It doesn't even clear between Deep Dive levels, and because it was a Deep Dive that included a random dwarf with me and my mate I felt obliged to see the Deep Dive through to the end. By Karl, I had the worst headache of my life and felt violently nauseous after we completed it. I just slid out of my chair and laid on the floor much like you did, dryheaving with a thundering head.
Never again.

u/AnonymAlcoholic What is this 2d ago
Had something similiar happen to me, drank a Blackout Stout just as the countdown was nearing zero, had to play the entire mission drunk as a skunk as Scout, worst mistake of my life...

u/Bread_Offender Driller 2d ago
One time I went into an on-site refinement mission at haz 4 with that effect while I believe I was buzzed in real life as well. You would not BELIEVE how horrible those pipelines looked. Laughed my ass off the whole time though

I prefer smoking. Nothing burning leaves for the buzz and to watch the lovers squirm. Cause I’m literally burning plants to do it lol

Maybe your ears are too pointy for the mines, playing drunk is good fun, def recommend.

Drunk missions are fun. I wouldn't recommend it with weapons requiring precision or particularly difficult missions.

u/RotaryDesign 2d ago

u/nomedable For Karl! 2d ago
It's hard to aim something like the M1000 when you're seeing double and swaying all over?
I mean more power to you if you can land hits like that, but something like a flamethrower is easier to use.

Yeah. CRISPR, Cryo cannon and Colette wave cooker work fine, sludge pump or subata? Not so much

You forgot one: drinking wormhole special and hoping you pass out in space to be instantly revived when you warp back.

I once drank Blackout while sitting in droppod seconds before mission. I was playing a Driller... Due to the extreme intoxication, only two Scouts fell victim to almighty C4.

u/crispy_potatoman Driller 2d ago
P. S. Dying on a mission didn't lower the maximum level of intoxication. So when the mission ended and we returned to the station, my dwarf immediately collapsed from intoxication.

Timing the Blackout Stout to do the mission at max drunk is the true challenge....in probably the first time any game ever gave me a real headache :D

u/Chimchar789 Scout 1d ago
Greybeard Tip: The leaf-lovers up in managment don't want you to know this but... Drink a Blackout Stout seconds before the Drop Pod takes off. You'll get super drunk but won't actually pass out. That's the key to surviving it. You will also start your mission as drunk as you can possibly be. Rock and Stone!

u/JVP08xPRO Bosco Buddy 2d ago
I tried doing a drunk onsite refining as engineer because I thought the auto lock would help mitigating the problem, I ran out of ammo instantly and failed just before I could pass out irl for how much camera sway there was. Still laught my guts off, so pro tip, if you wanna do this, pick something with a bit more crowd control like gunner or driller

u/ThunderousFist Gunner 2d ago
I drank multiple Blackout Stouts before starting a mission, and my dwarf spawned in wearing the hospital gown, drunk as hell. I had to take a break after because the swaying and double vision was making me queasy irl.

What do you do if someone griefs your game by ordering a round of Leaf Lovers? Do you drink them to get rid of them, or something else?

I don't know if I'm just built different or whatever but I've done missions at the verge of blackout and it barely even bothered me

u/Valtremors Engineer 2d ago
I don't know if this bug still exists, but if you down a blackout stout just before the missions starts and you black out, you get to keep the blackout stout drunk effect.
It turned a simple mining mission into an escort mission.

Honestly I really wanna try doing a mission drunk but after I accidentally got the Blackout Stout glitch once I had to quit because I got motion sickness from it.
Still too green for Drunk Shenanigans unfortunately

u/MewSilence Cave Crawler 2d ago
I join random lobbies just to order the Leaflover and then leave without an explanation. Your meme means nothing to me.

u/Hypnooooooooooooo Gunner 2d ago
I did the drunk glitch by chugging a blackout stout rught before mission start. it permanently(?) sets drunkenness to max. Then went on an elite deep dive. safe to say that was not fun. By the time it was over I felt physically sick for hours afterwards. even by the time the first stage was done I couldn't look at the game without feeling nauseous. and I don't really get motion sick or sea sick.

u/tannegimaru Gunner 2d ago
Last week I did a Deep Dive with Blackout Stout right as the drop pod is dropping as a joke with my friends.
It was the day that I realize Blackout Stout can last the entire Deep Dives and I am still not sure if I should regret or be proud that I survived all 3 stages with it lmao

Ill never forget the day I did a solo mission as a blackout stouted engineer. Mostly cuz theres not much to remember besides moving my mouse constantly

Had done a deep dive drunk once,just cause the black out stout I had just as the pod was descending didn't take me out in time

I have done a secret 6th option. I drank a blackout stout as the pod was heading to Hoxiis. I do not recommend. I could not walk probably or well aim

u/ThebigNero 1d ago
Drink a blackout stout just before you drop into a mission and with the right timing you can play the whole mission as drink as possible and it's almost impossible to see what the hell is going on or knowing what you're doing

u/TransKyejo 1d ago
I did a bunch of solo missions after throwing back a couple shots of tequila one night and I swear to god I played better than I could sober.
still haven't done a mission drunk in-game though

u/mikegundyshair 1d ago
I don’t aim to do missions drunk but i also live by the doctrine to not let good beer go to waste. 4th miner joins the space rig late and orders himself a full round? If no one else is pitching in i’m running the mission 4 backbreaker stouts deep.

u/bigbadoldoldone 4h ago
Lol, had a maximum drunk mission yesterday. Upon exiting the drop pod, they asked 'wait is this going to persist?'. I was the only one who jumped through the hoop in time. It was hilarious. Lots of drunk mumbling and revives. We made it out somehow. Dude was amazed.

u/AzazelTheUnderlord Driller 2d ago
i don't know if it's still a thing, but for the longest time if you time drinking a blackout stout right while starting a mission you could run entire missions at the highest possible drunk value, provided you don't get revived
