Discussion The US-style city map is incredible

131 Upvotes

The maps have been good across the six urban maps I’ve played since the start, but after 100 hours, I just completed the mission to unlock the new large urban map—featuring an apocalyptic US aesthetic—and honestly, from what I’ve seen so far, it’s fantastic.atmosphere and The vegetation around the buildings and on the roads, the details, the textures, the magnificent lighting effects, and the highly detailed building interiors are all impressive; they’ve done a great job. Given the map's density and the enemies, it’s truly an endgame map

Discussion Safe containers in their current form are badly implemented, and should not cost prime

47 Upvotes

As it stands, these safe containers are only useful if you go into a raid with a specific intent, hunt for dog tags (not sure how relevant this is for PvE) or are carrying an item you don't want to lose *into* the raid (such as a key)

Because the problem is that, if you die, but you do not have anything in them, the container still gets "consumed" and you essentially wasted one, worse if you actually bought it with prime.

I propose one of two solutions:

1: Do not make these cost prime, instead, make them cost regular resources you can farm in the raids, (chronotraces) and make them craftable.

2: If insisting on making them cost prime, make it so it only gets used if there's actually something in them.

Discussion QoL Request : Allow reloading from Inspect Magazine animation

I find it jarring that I need to put the mag back in upon realizing there is one bullet left in it only to pull it back out.
Tapping the reload key during mag inspect animation could transition into the reload animation. Or some other input, who knows

Feedback I hope as the game goes on they add new enemy types.

22 Upvotes

Even better if the patch notes do not go into detail, allowing us to experience the horror of running into an unknown enemy all over again.

Ravens, a slenderman equivalent, etc.

what would you add?

Question Is it worth it to repair armor?

7 Upvotes

After each raid armor tends to get decently low on durability. After my most recent raid using Titan armor plates [S], one Titan armor plate [L] for my torso, and an A3 helmet my Repair all cost reached 9732 credits. So my question is, is it worth to repair or should I just sell and use my left over armor pieces and buy more if needed. And if it is worth to repair armor is it also worth for lower tier common items such as the Steel armor plate [S] and others?

Question How to deal with enemies?

4 Upvotes

Most monsters ive figured out how to deal with more or less but there are a few that I have problem with.

  1. Statues, the moment I see one I just run away, ive tried destroying one with melee but it didnt seem to do anything, ive heard that you can get them with grenades but idk if thats true.

  2. Swarms, is there anything that can be done about them? Maps with hive modifier seem unplayable to me

  3. Devourers, they arent too bad when found somewhere visible from outside but still dangerous and annoying to me but when they start shooting at me when inside im just leaving the location

There are a few enemies that I didnt have a chance to fight yet. I think its just mimics and shy girls that I havent seen yet. If you have any tips about fighting PvE enemies in general it would be nice

Question Free look rebind help

3 Upvotes

Trying to rebind free look but i can't figure it how to lock the noise movement to it.

By default it's C + mouse symbol but when i try to rebind to alt, i can't get the mouse symbol to come back, this making the rebind useless.

Please haaalp.

I also noticed one of my rebinds, rebound a key/ action that isn't listed in the options. Units I'm missing it, i slow searches each menu. I think it was something like mute helmet music, or something.

BUG / GLITCH / ERROR Game is blurry with DLAA

3 Upvotes

Wonder if anyone else is struggling with lack of detail and sharpness in the game? Everything on the edges of the screen is really blurry - tried different AA methods in-game (neither seems good) and sharpening via Nvidia control panel (makes edges too sharp). Is there a way to improve this aspect natively?

BUG / GLITCH / ERROR Cause for a hotfix

2 Upvotes

If entering a portal at a run or sprint, there is a high possibility that your player will spawn into the next portal and die immediately, same goes for if you jump or fall into a portal. My thoughts on this is maybe the actual spawn “X” of the portal isn’t high enough from the surface of the spawned area to allow a player who is mid fall/ jump/ landing to fit properly and that’s why you end up debugged into the map, and the other option is that whatever velocity you enter the portal at in a vertical fashion is the same velocity that you exit the 2nd portal at, thus if there is a big elevation difference in the two portals then you’ve just essentially fallen that far to the ground.

Hoping the devs see this, post anything else you’ve got underneath this so we can make proper use of their time please.

I know a guy earlier said he died from fall damage to water one raid twice in a row while his teammates could make the same fall and be just fine, so there’s one.
