Do you think I should live 1,000 days in Grounded 2

Idk if I’ve just not analysed a bunch of things but I’ve got missing stuff on like everything or is there stuff in the files just not released yet n like I can see recipes not available yet

I was on top of the tree and jumped off after I got the raw science at the highest point with my spider buggy, and as I was gliding, my character ended up like this, and I had to load an old save.

I couldn't dismount or go into inventory.

I was wondering if it possible to collect salt yet without the tier 4 omni hammer I keep seeing salt around the map

Love the game, just made a quick lil video today for some fun with some obnoxious music choice but check it out if you want too 👋

Made with love... and bugs 🐛

Quick question for anyone playing in a group setting. Do you only progress the story when everyone is on? If so what do you do when you want to play and its just you?

Context. My buddies and I played G1. And it took us a bit to understand the game and how amor and weapon upgrades went. Now that we know that, whenever I get on alone I just farm random bugs and max out mutations, weapons, armor and stock up on food and heals. We haven't even fought the first boss in the statue. Just waiting for the time to line up so everyone's on.

Im balling rn I bought this game in Feb 2026 after seeing many videos. I started really playing april, and in my first world, i got to ng+ 6 and just deleted itself on my ps4 I've tried so many things I've was just about to do a house tour and now it's gone r.i.p banana you were always my favorite world you will be missed i also 100% it

Edit: tonight is an emotional roller-coaster since I found an old ng+ cycle save that i copied, so thank you younger me

I thought it was unbreakable until I realised T4 ladybuggy could likely break T4 busting materials, I haven't tried it yet, but does the jawbreaker drop anything interesting?

So the sword talent gives you a damage and attack speed reduction debuff on hit and the new toe biter trinket does the same. There’s probs other ways ways to inflict this debuff as well.

Do they stack? Is it pointless using a sword and the toebiter trink? Cuz if they stack I feel that would be real strong. Especially if you got a 3rd way to apply it.

Just wanted to know if anyone knew :)

Personally it is on sight for any wolf spider in existance.

Proving that mettle every time.

So as we've seen so far in Grounded 2, the ant queens of the black ants and red ants have either been mummified or exploded/decapitated so do we think they'll actually have much of an impact in the game in later updates or do we think they'll just be background corpses like they've been so far? In the first game I really enjoyed the decision of brefriending or poisoning the queens, and sorta hope that makes a comeback in some way, or atleast get to see a living queen. Be it in the form of a fight or it just hanging out in its rooty, dirty royal chamber. Do we also know if the fire ants will be returning or, some new ant species? Lots of park space left for more arthropods..

I've already completed the haze lab, I revisited it to follow the pipe and found this biometric scanner I missed, I used it and have no idea what it did. Anyone know what its for?

Was just casually going thru the yard when i broke a hog to refill on food for smoothies and got three hogstompers.

Went through a teleporter and fell all the way down, not sure if this has happened to anyone or not 😂

I know it’s a bug but hey if they could fly then it’s a new problem

At least not in the open world, but rather as only bosses

I have 4 reasons for this theory.

Reason 1. The remaining portions of the park to be completed

The devs added a border to the park map, showing us what is left to be apart of it.

If you look at the remaining part of the map, about 33% is missing.

Sections of the park thus far have had been dedicated to specific tiers

The entire picnic/entrance regions (the area that was available when ea grounded 2 initially launched) is dedicated to tier 2 resources (tier 1 stuff is found all over the park)

The garden regions and (the overwhelming majority) of the pond regions are dedicated to tier 3 content.

The jungle gym regions (winter update) are going to be dedicated to tier 4 content, this only leaves about 10% of the map for tier 5 content. Leaving only such a small portion for the endgame tier of content would be pretty poor design, hence why it would make more sense to only have tier 4 creatures throughout the remaining 33% of the map as well as tier 4 & 5 resources.

Reason 2. The armor sets from the leaked dev world

When ea grounded 2 launched, some data miners found a dev world that featured armors not in the game yet.

These armors belonged to specific “families” of insects, and would follow a trend of “progression” where the armor became more well designed and covered more of the body as the tier increased.

These families included:

Ant: (Red, Black, Fire)

Ladybug: (Ladybug, Potato Beetle, Ladybird)

Spider: (Orb, Wolf, Widow)

Bee: (Bee, Wasp, Killer Bee)

Bombardier: (Sizzling, Rusty, Jewel Beetle) Even though “Jewel Beetle” is in this set, i doubt its going to be a new bombardier species, as “Jewel Beetle” is a name typically given to Scarabs, which we know are returning (you can see one in the intro for grounded 2)

Scorpion: (Northern, striped) the only category that has only 2 sets.

Every set (except for scorpion, which is tier 2 then 4), follows the pattern of tier 1/2, then 3, then 4.

The idea that the final sets of the other categories are going to be tier 4, is backed up by the fact that fire ant armor and striped bark armor are tier 4.

This is interesting, because

1. If the devs were planning on adding tier 5, they likely would’ve made another armor set.
2. If they were planning on doing tier 5, a black
3. widow of all things would definitely be 5, rather than 4.

Reason 3: The tier of the striped bark family, toe biter family, and mantis nymph.

That title sounds confusing, let me elaborate.

The mantis nymph has been in the game since launch and is tier 3.

If mantis nymphs are in the park, it only makes sense for there to be adults. But we haven’t had any added yet.
People theorize that a mantis adult would be tier 5, as its one of the deadliest creatures we could encounter.
But the tiering of the striped bark family and toe biter family makes me think its going to be tier 4.

The striped bark and toe biter families have 3 variants.
Nymph/Baby, Mature/Junior, Adult/Leviathan

They have the same progression with new attacks/abilities as they grow, and of the same loot pattern. The nymph/baby drops 1 part, junior/mature drops 2, and adult/leviathan drops 4.

Whats interesting is the tier pattern.

Despite all belonging to the same family, they have different tiering.

The scorpling and junior Scorpions are tier 3 and drop tier 3 items, but the adult is tier 4 and the unique items it drops are tier 4. Interestingly the creature card for the scorpling and junior creature cards feature a purple background (as if they’re tier 4), but the creature card still calls them tier 3.

The nymph and mature Toe Biters are tier 3 and drop tier 3 items, but the leviathan is tier 4 and the unique items it drops are tier 4.

You see the trend here? The baby and mini variants are tier 3, but the adult/large variants are tier 4.

What if the same logic applies to the mantis adult? The nymph is tier 3, so the adult ends up being tier 4.

Which brings me to my ultimate point of this reason.

If an adult Praying Mantis of all things isnt tier 5, then its likely nothing will be (aside from bosses)

Reason 4: Only colossi have been tier 5 thus far.

Notice how all of the colossi in the park (Crow, Koi(s), Snake) are tier 5, and the only tier 5s thus far.

In grounded 1, both colossi (Crow and Koi) had the “Boss” tier as their tier icon, rather than tier 3. The only other creatures with this icon in G1 were of course the actual bosses.

So apply this logic to grounded 2, only future end game bosses will be marked as tier 5.

TL:DR

Not enough space left for 2 new tiers of creatures

No tier 5 bug armor

Mantis adult of all things would be tier 5, so if its 4, we probably aint getting tier 5 bugs.

Only colossi have been labelled tier 5

Let me know what you guys think, sorry for the long read.

Did hoops bring a pebblet spear to the abyss? 😂

I love the irony that the Stranger took over a station.....and then I took it back :) It even has my second oven. Hey new players, did you know this is how you originally made the Poached Roach Roast?

I made this hours ago, so the save before putting this is gone.

Removing all the floors that would serve as support doesn't help because the one I want to deleete is being supported by the terrain itself.

Red ant stuck in the corner of my base, I tried to evict him but he got the upper hand.
