what's up with the red clue glow? I've had it not work several times when people are right there like this.

The range is not super far. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxQ4U13e3XQ&t=128s (note that this is from a bit older version of the game, but I think most of the stuff in here still applies).

just had either the creepiest or most blessed game ever....we spawn on what's ultimately the opposite end of the map from the target, work our way all the way up there, do not see or hear a single sign of another player. map's absolutely quiet the whole way.



still all quiet in the boss room, when we notice that the butcher already has just a sliver of health left and there's a single dead player in there.



Who has ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS.



Then we went all the way to one of those extremely distant extracts without seeing a single other sign of life. for some reason my teammate only got 50 dollars from the player. I like free money as much as the next person but still, what the hell? what determines how much money you get from a dead player? and does it ever just start a game with far less than 12 players?

It happens far less frequently than it used to, but it still happens sometimes.





Last night I got killed by a twitch streamer, which isn't unusual. However right before he killed me he loving TK'd his partner with a frag bomb so I alt-tabbed out to go load up his stream. Right as the loving twitch ads ended I got to watch his POV as my partner knifed him in the face and he absolutely raged at how bad the nagant officer is because it didnt kill my partner and then he alt-tabbed and loaded up his replay of it and went over it like the loving Zapruder film, looking at each of his hits.

Unfortunately I can't link anyone to this because his non-live videos are Subscriber only for some reason, even though he has no viewers.

It was extreme schad

If the matchmaking bar fills up all the way it means you're getting put in a server with less than 12 though there's no way to tell how many. The matchmaking timer used to be like 3 minutes or something and they changed it to be 30 seconds or so which is annoying as poo poo cause I'd much rather wait longer than get put in a match with like 4 other people :argh:

The better half of the Brothers Douche.
I am utterly perplexed by Quickplay. As someone who is really not particularly good at this game, my record stands at 3 wins 1 loss, with a total of 1 kill to my name, and the loss coming due to getting killed by PvE (again, not particularly good at this game).

I got the wellspring first in all three wins. First win, hide in compound, listen to fighting outside coming closer over the next few minutes, and a guy finally steps inside with like 10 seconds left, and we end up awkwardly staring at each other like 5 meters apart, shotguns drawn, as time expired. Second win, I hear some distant PVP right as I activate the wellspring, and like 5 seconds later I get the message that I'm the last man standing. Third win played out just like the first, only I got the shotgunning off in time.

Is that just how Quickplay goes? I mean, I dig the free leveled up dudes, but I'll be damned if that final holdout isn't the most stressful 3 minutes in any game I'll ever play.

Friends and I ran the gauntlet at two bounties next to each other. I died and got burned to Super Dead but one friend clutched it, and they go to leave with both bounties.

Right on the extreme edge, they notice the last group camping the extract, having not made a single sound the entire game. So my friends book it alllll the way across the map to the other extracts and I guess the campers didn't notice. Extracted with plenty of time and the last group wasted 30 minutes camping for literally nothing.

You have to remember, Quickplay still has the AI enemies and if you're not careful/properly equipped you can end up getting killed through a mistake. I'll never forget the time I ran into 2 packs of hellhounds once, and proceeded to run out of stamina and die in shame and dishonor.

Today, the first day of the event, you can only earn 200 points in game with 300 additional from Twitch. Tomorrow you can go to 400, and so on. Day 5 and beyond your points aren't limited. Once you get the daily cap, any excess gifts or clues you pick up translate to 50xp for a gift and 200 for a clue, for whatever Hunter you're using.

the christmas menu theme is extremely good

I just had a game where I was sneaking around a boss building with red whispers, snuck right by a creepy doll head positioned along the crawlspace I was going through, and it scared me so much while being exactly the same shape as a player's head I very nearly blasted it and told the world where I was

A question: Does permadeath kick in at level 10, 11, or 16? Different sources give different information, and I just hit level 10...

Pretty sure this happens at level 10, at least we assumed it did and retired our characters when we hit 10. I would suggest doing the same to get a pile of exp for the character, it's a very nice boost and can jump you straight to level 18 or so
