Given how impressive the ambience is in the game, I'm looking forward to seeing the snow map conditions

Stella Montis im looking forward to the most... massive tunnel system with puzzles gonna be epic!
 
Really enjoying this keep going for one more game. Only discovered you can hide from drones quite effectively in bushes etc. Most people are friendly if you communicate and as someone already posted ARC are a real threat which may lead to a more cooperative game. Currently trying to upgrade my utility bench so I can craft hatch keys although should be able to buy them at level 12.
 
Really addictive game this. I started off playing passively and after getting shot down a few times by some unfriendly players I'm now show no mercy whatsoever and enjoying getting revenge on randoms. The proximity voice chat is so good I wasn't sure if it was AI talking to me or real players so I had to Google if the game uses AI raiders but it doesn't. Impressive stuff. They were begging me not to kill them mwahahahahaha :cry: :cry: :cry:

you can change ur voice in the audio settings to sound differently... goes from 11 year old kid to Barry White :D

VOIP is funny i ran into the hospital earlier on buried city and 4 guys all had the 11 year old voice.. my poor ears
 
I think someone got killed by a cheater, who got caught and they’re returning items that the dead person lost to the hacker perhaps?
Embark have been doing something similar in ranked on The Finals. If you lose out due to someone cheating all the ranked score that you lost is returned back to you!
 
I'm getting a lot of noise around trees and grass during movement, I suppose that's coming from DLSS or is it another setting? (have the same problem on BF6)

Currently using DLSS on Balanced at 4k.

Yes, we were discussing delayed footsteps (your own). Feels like they lag a little behind you sometimes- UE5. Tends not be that frequent though.

Had a game last night where we went from one fight to another in the run up to extraction. To make things fun a rocketeer turned up and starting blowing everything up. Three squads , bodies everywhere, people screaming down the mic.

In the end everyone but me and this opposing team bloke survived - except we are downed. Lift on its way. We both crawl in, he dials in the code only to die and sacrifice himself for me (bled out) before the gates close. Absolutely hilarious.

The game definitely is one that makes "moments", that much kind of reminds me of old Battlefield games (which also used to make moments , before it became so much of a rush-rush die respawn thing). I think the way the extraction points are done in this, instead of just being a location that you run up to and exit on a keypress is very clever for creating that added bit of tension
 
I realised after that maybe moving your mouse up and down doesn't move your characters head but it all worked out in the end:


I will play with Phillipe again, we added eachother in game :)

Tell them to hold G for emotes, there's basic emotes (with sound) to indicate "friendly", "work together?" and then simple things like "Yes" and "No".

They may not know this so just tell them over prox chat and they can respond. Not sure what the console buttons for this are though :o

I turned the foliage detail right down, also helps to see people in areas like the swamp
 
Must say, something that surprised me is upon looking at the steam profiles of everyone I encounter, is how many people have their steam profiles on private. Cant see the point of it myself but I guess maybe it stops you getting unwanted messages or something

Only reason I have it is because I used get spammed by loads of people or bots for trades and commenting on my profile as I have some rare stickers they want lol
