Quick question, got this the other week, on load the frame rate is around 3-10 fps and won't even get past the load screen. No issues with anything else on the rig. Known problem? Sent details to ubisoft but heard sod all back from them.

What's the rest of your spec @Doug2507 Are you running on a mech drive or SSD?
 
I had a 6 month break from playing. Ive managed to get my gear up to 229 by just doing the usual instances. Would it be good for me to farm named bosses in pve to get higher gear? I noticed some daily and weekly special quests. Is it possible to do the highest tier solo? I don't have any of the expansions. Yet.

i would farm the LZ bosses to get yourself geared up to 256 before attempting anything too hard.. like challenging mode
it doesnt take long to get geared for 256.. what takes the time is getting the right gear for the build you want :p

also i would wait until your gear score is 256 before completing weeklies or opening caches as what you get is based on the gear score you have now i think, so could become useless quick
 
just got a ferro mask.. now should i use that or my tenacious one for last stand?

ferro's would be good vs those incendiary balls.. since i could shoot while on fire
but tenacious gives +10% damage after using medkit

Im starting to think refreshed over tenacious, with a switch to ferros if the other team has multiple nuke attacks lol

yeah im not sure about refreshed.. since its only when your in the last segment of health, if you get a bit of lag or anything while waiting for your health to drop that low.. well then your done lol
but with tenacious you can hit the medkit whenever and get the bonus damage

i think i will stick with the tenacious then as you said switch to ferro's if things get too hot (pun intended :D )
 
ok now i have to try them out lol
They are awesome! Don't forget to stack the seeker performance mods too ;) :D

Usually I would be raging over stuff like this in MP games but given all the glitches aka "cheese" tactics this game has, I couldn't really care less.
 
last few games of last stand felt very laggy.. then when i finally gave up on the third game i found that i had 0 caches, when it even showed on the end screen that i had some

unrelated game i had to take a screen of
such a good score.. and they still lost

if people are going to make a seeker mine build, I urge you to run defrib with it and heal the team as well or alternatively a support station

I have seen people using seekers rush into fights thinking they are DPS and get melted, and when they are behind DPS players, they don't put heals on the ground for them or try and revive with the defrib or support station. Which tbh, if they are on the other team, gg for trying as I will kill you in an instant and do an Irish dance on your sheepish and idiotic body until you learn the error of your ways haha. :D

It isn't cheese, it takes a heavy investment with everything on electronics, skill power on backpack, knees and mask as well as weapon talents which increase skill power, player perks for multiple explosions and specific HE items to get the 1 shot so if you can avoid the 1 shot with immuniser, EMP or shooting the seeker - then they will die in 2 seconds from a DPS player. And its a damn hard build to run when you are being a healer + using the 1 shot as it takes a lot of communication and focus on your team trying to see who will need heals first.

I played it tonight, but as a healer and stayed behind all of the heavy hitters just paying attention to who needed it first and then using the seekers when the other team tried to rush. I think I killed 21 people with it and assisted in 40 as the other team weren't using immuniser. Pity the other 4 from the other team were potatoes but cant have everything :D

But this will be ignored, as it seems majority people wearing this are happy to use the seeker, and then die instantly and respawn

People always cry cheese, or cry nerfs but in reality, this is a specific build which requires specific build knowledge and an investment which makes them extremely vulnerable to another player farting in their direction, much like people running 9k FA and then being called hackers due to their damage.

It will get nerfed, simply due to peoples inability to consider countermeasures and not being able to run and gun like in 1.5.

What you need to look for are people who are camping and gaining points for AFKing and healing themselves - they are the real cheesers in this mode. People getting hundreds of thousands of points without moving off a specific spot, possibly like that screenshot above

For reference, this is my tacticians build - fully buffed and in last stand:
This will one shot a team but it requires a weapon talent, a specific backpack and a specific player talent which is all enabled and worn, but can also revive and heal a team mate from downed, to overheal.

I have one FA + SP mod on mask to unlock some weapon talents to finish players off who might have a bit of EDR, but I also have zero health anywhere but the chest. Skill power on backpack, knees, and mask, skill haste on holster.

Edit: the below screenshot isn't showing the correct skill power. My max is now 580,000 skill power as I got new kneepads.

I am using it with my all round strikers build (skill 110k) gamble and still finding that it does incredible damage (although all my performance mods are maxed out seeker related), maybe I'm just against noobs with crap builds... :p

The one thing I love are the people that just deploy the ball right beside them LOL :D
 
How is the 1070 doing in this game? I game at 1200p and my 970, can run the ultra preset but fps are between 35 - 80.

Dark zone seems to be more taxing. Getting itchy for an upgrade.

Also the new 1.6 patch is buggy.

I've notice the following:

1. Enemy lvl on missions can change if you click on it, off and back on, it can go from lvl 25 enemy to 14.

2. When modding guns UI flickers.... might be an Nvidia drivers issue.
 
well i tried the seekers and while it did a bit of damage i still prefer using pulse with conceal
also tried running defib on my heal but it seems most people who go down, just hold space to end it before you even get chance to revive.. maybe useful if your running with a team but near useless playing with randoms

one thing i only just noticed last night was the low damage you do to players compared to enemies
i saw myself hitting around 5k a shot and was checking everything to see what was causing it!
so i watched a few vids and turns out this is normal?

@opethdisciple those are known bugs and have been in the game for a while now, nothing new with 1.6
the flicker while modding guns happens if someone walks into you while your in that menu

also im running a 970 @ 1080p, dont think i changed any graphic settings so will be high or ultra and v-sync on
keeps a solid 60fps most of the time
 
Are people playing this on Discord or just from the friends list with ingame voice? be good to play with people as the other guys i used to play with don't play so much anymore!
