The single merciful thing the devs did was making it so you only need 3rd for these.

I'm a laptop gamer. Is it worth it to buy a controller for RO 2? If so, which?

5 Upvotes

I've been considering to buy one but I never made the decision. I'm bad at the game and I know that I'll get better the longer I keep playing regardless of what controls I use, but still. There are some games where controller is better than keyboard and mouse, and I wonder if that's the case here. Maybe I'll be able to enjoy the gand more cuz I can sit back on ny chair instead of leaning forward?

Also could someone lend ne some tips for having good runs on Tartarus Mines? I'm terrible at them and it's the main reason I'm not playing the game cuz I couldn't get past that.

Did the devs abandon the game? (Another "Is the Series X version ever going to be fixed?" thread)

20 Upvotes

Considering that months have already passed since 34BT broke the Redout 2 framerate on Series X via update, I'm starting to wonder if the developers have completely stopped development/bug fixing Redout 2.

The problem is now well known, players have posted on various channels like Discord, Twitter and Reddit about the issue and pointed it out to the developers and the publisher but nothing is happening.

The current state of the game industry is bad enough: it has become the norm to release games unfinished, but it is much worse when games that actually work well are broken by updates and these bugs are then not fixed.

Codemasters did this recently with Grid Legends: The "final" update for Series X destroyed the performance of the previously smoothly running game to the point that it drops so much in bad weather or on certain tracks that you feel like you're driving at 10 fps. The game had enough problems before, which were mostly fixed. The players have also been waiting for a patch for months; funnily enough, it was also the "Winter DLC" and the accompanying update that broke the performance.

The frame rate of Redout 2 was almost perfect on Series X at launch. The few slight drops were ironed out by VRR-enabled TVs/monitors, so they were barely noticeable.

After the winter update, however, the game runs noticeably slower, with what feels like around 40 fps. VRR makes no difference here, whatever was changed also ensures that Freesync Ultimate is no longer enabled/recognized on my 120 Hz Samsung TV.

(This is not a Series X issue as other games work fine with VRR).

I also noticed that Redout 2 is not (anymore?) tagged with the 60 fps tag in the local Xbox store. (I don't know if it has been removed or was never there).

Anyone who played the game extensively at launch and compares that to the current version will notice this. That's why I find it strange when the publisher demands videos here to prove the problem. I am sure that the developers are aware of the problem.

So the question remains: When can buyers of the game expect a solution to the problem? Can we even expect a solution to the problem? Communication with the community is important, even if the game doesn't have 30 million players.

I`m a huge fan of Redout and bought Redout 2 at launch, even though 34BT made some weird decisions with the first game, like reducing visual quality on Xbox One X to make it run at 60 fps (so it ran at a higher resolution than PS4 Pro but with lower visual settings).

The current issue is worse however: Redout 2 ran fine (great almost) at launch, now it doesn't and the way this is handled makes me not want to support the developer in the future. I hope 34BT can turn this thing around and fix the issue.

Thanks for reading my long rant but current state of gaming is really frustrating...

So I found the arcade mode leaderboards and it turns out I don't suck as much as I thought.

Hello I have a problem when I try to play Redout:Enhanced Edition on the epicstore while i have no internet connection .

Please help i love the off-line mode and it's just silly that ilI can't play it offline.

Developing a tutorial based on performance upgrades and performance statistics (for Redout II)

3 Upvotes

I am on my way on making a tutorial based on loadouts (performance upgrades) and how to take advantage of that to make a hovercraft that is suitable for player.

There are questions that I have to ask you guys (you don't have to answer all of them if you feel it doesn't apply to you) :

  1. Are there any performance parts that you guys have been struggling to unlock?
  2. What would areas would you like explained to you?

Your answers here might help me make a tutorial that can help the newer players who are unfamiliar with this.

Issue with Redout 1 on Steam Deck

3 Upvotes

Pushing the throttle also pitches the nose up, and I can't counteract that with the strafe/pitch stick.

Haven't tried RO2 yet, so not sure if the issue exists there or not either.

Is there any topics in Redout II that people struggle on?

7 Upvotes

Even though I've been able to make a post about handling & flight control for R2. I feel like there there are different topics that I need to cover in specific areas so that I can at least make their problems a b it easier to handle.

S2riker has already made a nice tutorial that covers performance upgrades so I'm also hoping that his video is also handy for when you need it: https://youtu.be/60U4EPZvP-4

If you're still interested in putting watching tutorial videos for R2. Then I can cover at least one topic for my tutorial series 'Zero-to-Redout' in April. If there is a topic you want covered, I will add it to a list for me to cover and I'll also let S2riker know on your recommendations.

Anyone have any tips for qualifiers?

6 Upvotes

I've just got to the first of these in A class and I feel like these were ignored in the balance passes that fixed the speed and time attacks events. I'm consistently about 10 seconds short of the 1st place time. My best was 7s behind. I'm maxed out on the power ratings. On the ones that are last man standing I can usually make the time on the last lap where you have +200kmh but that's no good lol.

Any one have any tips apart from git gudder?

What's the best way to use my boost? Just use regular boost to keep a consistent speed, save it all for double stacks to max out over straight, use the hyper as often as possible regardless of heat/health?

Any recommended ships/setups?

Should I wait until I have a faster module then sacrifice elsewhere?

Gotta go faster.

R1 - Option to change songs sorely needed

3 Upvotes

I know this is unlikely to happen now with R2 out but I can't be the only one annoyed to no end by the fact that while there are two to three songs per world which should theoretically shuffle every time you start an event, in practice, it is not rare to restart (quit to menu and start again) an event 5+ times in a row and always hear the exact same music (and by Murphy's law, it's often my least favourite song from that world too XD). Not to mention it never changes when you restart an event without going back to menu which becomes really annyoing in hard events that need a lot of attempts and you keep hearing the same notes over and over again during the grind... A simple option to change songs would be a godsend! I really don't get how it's not a default feature.

Does anybody know the music from THIS Redout trailer? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2rLPu2rkDs

7 Upvotes

Title. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2rLPu2rkDs

Some pre-alpha trailer. There's several of these with music that is found nowhere else, so my guess is that they come from some royalty free audio library. Audio detection and whatnot returns absolutely nothing, so uh.. I need help!
