I assume as much, yeah. I wasn't even trying to do that, I was trying to regain control and send out that far-too-late counter-ping  ('course there was a mule like right there, but it's the principle of the thing dangit)

Party Boat posted:I like a cover, extra battery and tons of grenade pouches for BT encounters. If I'm heading into new territory I'll generally take a ladder and set of climbing anchors but not more than one of each unless I have good reason. Almost everything else is on a needs basis. The stabiliser does make it impossible to fall over (with some great animations) but it isn't worth the space it takes up for me, keeping your footing is rarely difficult. Pretty much likewise though I usually go for two ladders - sometimes three. Useful things, those. Backpack customizations are also the same - one battery and grenade pouches to fill. I also bring two to three container repair spray everywhere because holy poo poo does cargo erode fast on VH, i've had to burn cans in the middle of torrential downpour just to make sure I made it without damaging the cargo. (I've got a better eye now for overhangs to get dry in if there's no timefall shelters, at least )

I'm aware that there's a sort-of-point-of-no-return sometime soon(ish?) after Episode 8 (Heartman). How far can I go here before getting locked into... whatever comes after? In fact would anyone mind broadly spoiling what does come after? I'm sensing lots and lots of the Mads Combat Hour, lots of BT-killing, or both  Also: wow do packages & backpack covers get shredded fast in those mountains, jfc. I wanna bring a dozen PCC2s everywhere with me just so I can drop and destroy timefall shelters alongside ziplines

Oh, okay, that helps some. I thought it'd be save-reloading at worst, or more likely a rewind to just before... whatever... kicks off It's still a multi-hour affair of not much delivery at all, I assume, but I guess I'll find out (e) assuming I don't hulk smash my controller trying to get that incredibly fragile package delivered. haven't tried it yet but based on earlier experiences that's going to suck

on that note, despite the massive amount of repetition and exposition in the game, I have some plot questions because I went "gently caress this" and got blazed about a third into credit roll 1 and undoubtedly missed some fine detail. basically all ending poo poo so here comes the CIA document questions - about the President: so Bridget/Amelie are one person and she was the EE all along. Why'd they get split into Amelie on the Beach and Bridget in the real world? After that split, were Bridget & Amelie the same person with the same goals, or was it a Jekyll/Hyde thing? - about BBs: so all those elevator flashbacks were Sam's earliest memories, and he was one of the earliest BBs - taken out of the game as a fetus by a bullet, very sad - and was Cliff's target all along. What about BB-28, does that make him(?) a completely separate BB with an unknown (and unexplained) history that just so happened to get to Sam by way of Igor at the start, or is he somehow related to the broader plot? (At first I thought he was Sam too and there was some timey-wimey bullshit afoot) - about the Death Stranding: were the first BT contact & voidouts in the BB experiments a part of Bridget/Amelie's grand design, or a fuckup? - about Higgs: if he was being puppeted the whole time, what was with those two boss fights and Amelie being apparently under his control? - about Amelie: what the hell is her goal here? I got all the blah-blah philosophy about mass extinctions being good in the long run, but if her goals were keeping humanity going, couldn't she just... like... not do the Last Stranding at all?? - about the final delivery and Sam's fate: not really a question because I don't know how to form it, but something about Sam returning to being a bitter, aloof asswipe - "same as [he] was back in that cave" - after all that seems... wrong? like i get disconnecting from Bridges, if only to make sure they don't find out about Lou, but why walk away and sever ties with e.g. Fragile?

d'aww. I just got the harmonica (in the postgame  ), and I recognized what song he plays for BB while resting  Does he play that same song if you get the harmonica when first available? (ed) Philippe posted:Sidenote, what's everyone's favorite spot for hunting BTs?  Rest there to restock on ammo for whatever you're using, cross the river junction going southwest toward the Photographer, and you'll be drowning in the fuckers.

Zazz Razzamatazz posted:Yes. (Also Sam’s jingle that plays when he gets a mail is the first few notes). Took me a while to realize that every character has their own jingle. Neat! I kind of want to go back through the story. Even though so much of it is pure logorrhea, the parts that aren't are pretty rad, and I'd love to go catch more instances of foreshadowing like that very song. Too bad there's no, idk, NG+ or something - granted being superman kinda breaks the back of the difficulty curve, such as it is, but not having a speed suit and especially Sticky Guns just fuckin sucks lol

so are the hidden preppers in the southwest as much of a complete pain in the rear end to find and get on the network as the First Prepper was, because that was an Ordeal, postgame equipment or not

I'm in the postgame and found a bit of cargo, but not enough to even hit half of one star Ran 'round to the paleontologist, geologist, evo-devo, heartman's lab, and poo poo even routed my zips between the paleo and around to the south to the timefall farm and thence to south knot, just in case. never found more cargo, or anyone with orders to the fucker even did the rest and get emails thing, he sent me one mail then shut the hell up  i'm gonna go play snowrunner

yeah, didn't help me - South Knot and the Timefall Farm just plain don't have any orders for the fuckhead at all. (edit) After going to Timefall Farm, then the Veteran Porter and back, the farm had a single order for him. Wut?  hopefully this gets him the star (e) well thank christ for that

History Comes Inside! posted:I was literally crouched with a cord running through my body and no position I got into would prompt me to cut it. in my experience you gotta get close to the BT itself and not just any dang where on the cord, strangely (e: i know you said you got right on their rear end, though) once i started getting close enough to breathe on them (were i not holding my breath/wearing an oxygen mask), and i mean "why the gently caress am I not busted yet" close, the prompt came up quite reliably Ciaphas fucked around with this message at 23:46 on Oct 25, 2021 |

Mr. Barnesworth posted:This one stumped me too for awhile, you need to have a certain item equipped as your weapon. I think it was that strand rope (it's been a couple months since playing it) you use to bind Mules, with that equipped you'll be able to cut their cords. Or maybe you just need to not have any weapon equipped? I believe it's the latter, as I never bothered to get out the strand unless someone actually needed hogtyin' and I never had a problem cutting cords. getting that is a massive relief every time i play (e) i know you can bola a BT but can you hogtie one

yeah that recommendation is mostly about the new toys you start getting in the main map, starting with chapter 3 - robo legs, trucks, highways, and so forth - probably more if you have the director's cut, idk, haven't paid enough attention but not a one of those is needed on the first map, so gently caress it if you're having fun you do you (and i can understand the temptation) gently caress the foot route to the wind farm tho i definitely did that 5* postgame
