Any tips for survival?

I never used the crafting\fabrics etc as by the time i jointed this function was broken and useless

I wondered through on release with a mate but got delta errors and gave up as was getting this a lot at the time.

I was on till about 2300 last night, not a single Delta which is good. They've been busy I rekon

I spent pretty all of yesterday farming the DZ. I managed to get all new kit and weapons. All at 256 now. Running with 3 piece Sentry's and 3 piece Hunter's. Got the new M700 sniper rifle with 118k DMG and G36 with 294,000 DPS. I spent the day getting the loot and tonight I will try it out. I was able to boost my toughness and DPS quite considerably.

Loads and loads of crashes though lol.

m700 tactical was the first weapon i got, i purchased 4 cache from the base of operations and it was the last open.

I crash on first load, but second time is fine. then i'll crash maybe 4 hours later

sound deleys

sli is still performing well, but textures are dodgy sometimes.
 
TBH surprised we did well against 6 hunters last night Tony as I think you and I were running pretty similar gear, for myself, I had:

- 1 purple RPK
- 1 blue m1a (which ran out of ammo before the hunters arrived)
- only 1 piece of purple gear
- 2 greens and the rest blue



Survival definitely depends a lot on luck with regards to what server you get in and where you are spawned as on our first attempt last night, we got spawned near a refugee/hospital/army type of camp thus loads of loot boxes around and none were opened! Then Tony had to leave after 5 minutes for about 20 minutes, I was practically kitted out within that time, all weapons and blue gear with a couple of purples then on our second attempt, we got spawned where it was jam packed with other people so it took forever to get tools etc. to craft the mask let alone getting any good pickups lol...

If grouping up, 2 is doable with regards to staying together but I think any more than 2, we will need to split up and scavenge different areas of the map before meeting up at the DZ (then we can share any gear + weapons there before entering)
 
Ok - that shield set is totally OP :D
Really - did Lexi on CM and barely lost even half of my 3rd health bar,ofc its not a proper test etc.,need to do in DZ PvP and some HM incursions.
I literally laughing all Lexi mission how easy it was..If you have good SMG i highly recommend it ;)

Twirly - snipers now make you kinda like you were hit with explosive bullets,similar effect

  • As soon as you log, grab the 1 fabric and painkiller
  • Use painkiller and craft a hat
  • Mark the closest DZ entrace as a marker and start heading in that direction
  • loot enough materials to craft a virus filter and advanced virus filter
  • start heading to the DZ
  • try and craft or loot an assault rifle or mmr
  • craft a pulse first over the other skills
  • when in the DZ loot as much materials as possible + divtech to craft a HE AR and MMR
  • ignore landmarks in LZ and DZ - too much aggro for little reward and the elites are stronger than the hunters


My preference for extraction now is bryant park for solo as it offers a lot of cover and places to hide. :)

Does the heli always crash on the eastern side of the DZ? My starting point so far has continually been the South East corner.

Just finished work for the day, first port of call, sort all my loot and gear from last nights forray, then straight back into another Survival :) I'm so hooked right now, screw the rest of the game haha.

It can crash anywhere in the DZ in terms of N/S/E/W etc but i think its limited to 12 possible crash points. Will need to see if i can check that somehow in the files but it maybe server related.

Does this game run fairly well? Can i expect good 1440p performance? Spec in sig, gg

Yeah you will.

One of the members on here - Mario, runs a 1070 and I think has almost every setting up full!

It is a very well optimised game for single cards and most SLI setups

Nice build, Snips. Are you seeing much of a benefit to having 120k elec? I've been running mine at 90k and honestly (previously 66k), I haven't noticed any difference.

Saying that though, I think anything less than 100k for WT5 could be classed as too low. 90k did me find in WT4 but struggling in 5.
