i want to pick flowers with my cute captain.

ugly

Cute clown

repostan this map from based user

Are those the DD combat pants? I've been looking to replace my heat-resistant shorts for a while now.

>Small is now 30 for ammo but 20 for shotgun
Large is now 60 for ammo but 40 for shotgun

That explains why my shotgun lost so much ammo

>Dig time now 24 hours instead of 12, dig 3 is now 48 hours.
fuck you konami

>Drop rates changed for S ranks, legendary is less common and S rank clear conditions for Hard mode now harder

I wonder if I can finally start getting epics now

WHY THE FUCK IS MY CREW SO UNHAPPY

THEY HAVE LITERALLY EVERYTHING

Do you ever get a piece of gear that lets you equip two back weapons? I really want a spear and a bow.

no

>do you ever get two backs

>can't go full caveman with bow and spear
fuck this shit
i don't think caveman had bows but you get the idea

I'll give you two backs, user.

I want to do extremely naughty things to Bladewolf.

same senpai

epics are not in the game right now

what?

nigger someone posted a pic of an epic pistol

uses up the shared KUB, which is distributed to most players recieve a chunk from at the end

Hard mode is way too hard now. Literally no room for error.

YES

wtc?

>tfw no rapier type weapon that functions like a spear but takes up a hip slot
>tfw no crossbow type weapon that functions like a bow but takes up a hip slot

WHERE
Or did you get it from a base dig

Wait, does it really distribute that? I've been spending it whenever I can.

>800 to S
JUST
also I just discovered there is a x500 kills point reward equal to 5k.

How do you do digs solo and not fuck up and get overwhelmed?

>tfw have that and small heavy arrows bag
>120 heavy arrows

>Almost S-Rank on hard
>Someone uses one too many digger abilities and you get booted down to ~340k

>Last round
>Someone uses Ray at the beginning
FUCK OFF

Not him, but I got mine from a hard salvage

did they buff zombies for normal mode as well? My heavy arrows no longer 1 shot wanders

Seems so. Explosive arrows leave some with 1-5% hp left.

No user, drop rates got LOWERED for everything

Also I lost 5 hard games in a row, its tough now with low ammo, damage nerfs, and the fucking digger when charged is impossible to hit S rank even with all support diggers.

They fucked up bad

FUG X---DDD

This is false because it will only encourage people to fucking hoard kuban and rage if people buy things.
You don't take ANYTHING but rewards out, that's why kuban is a reward for every rank.

I'm going to test out hard mode next, I could usually get s rank while carrying 3 shitters

lmao would that even be possible before they died

wait, using tactical support lowers the energy needed to rank up?

>Matchmaking now easier/faster
hopefully i can actually get into games without waiting 20 minutes now

the one with the epic pistol cheated most likely like the guy with the sneaking suit. the only epic rewards right now are from post game bosses. but those are only materials for armor/weapons which are not in the game right now

>People never using their fucking Kuban
>I always buy ammo and walkers
You retards, this is how you save resources and get firepower.

If they're as shitty as the shitters I've been getting you won't be able to anymore.

Grenade Arrow is the new Meta to replace the shotgun nerf. 1 arrow = 20+ dead zombies

You can't literally use anything yellow even cheating, unless someone gets their hands in the Purple crafting tables recipes

I'm sick and tired of these youtubers making shit up about Survive, just for views. They can say things that are blatantly wrong, and since normies haven't tried this game, they will agree with them.

People are taking screenshots of the player number during maintenance and declaring the game dead. It was the 6th most sold last week on UK, and people are claiming it sold terribly. They keep saying you have to pay $10 USD for a new save slot, while you could simple use another console profile or Steam Family Sharing.

The game has its fair share of flaws, but these people just keeps focusing on the low hanging fruit, making up shit as they go.

Anyone know if the Infiltrator sneaking suit from mgo is in?

jungle base dig hard

It removes some of the iris energy you've mined

Worst of all, is not a save slot its a character slot, you can't manually save shit

yup, only epics I have got so far were materials

>the lord of dust we killed was a weaker version of itself
>killing its weaker past self closed the time loop
>lord of dust is jumping back into time from the 2100's to feed itself
>there's more then one thanks to time fuckery

this timeline is fucked and i cant make heads or tails of it

No it doesn't.

Just did hard mode and s rank is now a bitch to get but we did it and I only got blue drops. Fuck this. ITs harder to get s rank and now even if I get it, I still get no purple or epics. GG REEEE

so
where do i get the fucking animal cages?
i'm already in the post game and STILL haven't found them

base camp digs

Its basically this

Pizza? What the shit?

oh
well, shit, i hated those, time to lube up

Im disappoint theres no burgers

Goat cage.

let me guess, plan 3?
I want some pizza time

time to remove the undesirable crew members

where do you get the kiln?

Plan 3 base dig, you also get a kitchen

What are geologists used for? Development or base development? I'm really unclear on some of these roles, especially the whole shared stuff across staff etc

would be make a nice nice addition if my base wasn't at 100% capacity at all times, despite being empty as fuck

nice, now i only need a bigger capacity for my base camp

GET OVER IT

You can get them, I got a broken geist from hard mode, you just cant use them yet because lol fuck you no advanced workshop.

what perks and stats does a pizza have? I have this bear paw stew unlocked.

*crunch*

when will they port all the games to pc

send him on deployment missions with no gear and solo. sacrifice him to the dust gods

Nothing there yet, have to harvest animals and plants to discover new recipes

>drill is boosted
>support drill is nice and cozy
>everyone does sidemissions
>everything goes as planned
>rank A

Was anyone on iris gathering duty?

I fucked up and I accidentally crafted a shitton of .45 bullets. Is there a purple gun or at least fucking blue that uses them?

I have foolishly been trying to use /v/ to get a honest review of the game. I liked the beta but seeing the final lord of dust boss fight turned me off the game a bit.

What's everyone' take on the game?

anyone got the bosses to respawn after killing them both?

Pretty good, lots of exploration, base building, fun multiplayer. If you didn't like the Lord of Dust battle, spoil yourself the battle with Big Mouth and Frostbite.

Does a level 3 base exist to increase the cap on the stuff you can have? I literally have like a fence around my base and one of each facility and I'm at 100%

We killed the weakest Lord of Dust. This somehow kills all Lords of Dust across all time loops which doesn't really make sense.

you have to hunt down those too? for fucks sake

Pizza stats

you gotta bust balls not and grab the iris that spawns in the red areas

Do you like survival games, user?

Jesus fucking christ how hard is it for people to look at the mechanics and figure out if it's up their alley or not?

Lord of dust is not even a boss fight

the first few hours can be kind of a slog but it opens up later on, if you like collectan items and making the numbers go up you'll like the game. the fortnite/7daystodie lite survival gameplay starts off like your greatest concern but becomes very manageable very quickly.

konami is suprisingly incompetent at jewing so you really don't need any of the microtransactions, but expect a few side mechanics to be tied to long real-world clocks.

There's only one lord of dust going in a loop through time.

>Hit training dummy with spear on its critical spot
>253 damage
>Level up strength
>Hit training dummy with spear on its critical spot
>253 damage

I expected more of the LoD boss fight, honestly. There's another boss before the LoD that actually feels a bit more like a boss. Motherfucker trashed half my base with his AoE attacks.
Then there's two post-game bosses that other people describe as having a Monster Hunter feel to them. Haven't fought them yet, though.

It's just possible, but holy shit is it not fun.

how does the Resupply Turret skill work?
what ammo does it replenish exactly?

If this game didn't have "Metal Gear" in it's title it would have better reviews.

where do i get the cute paz nameplate?

So how does this sound? Somewhat slow early game (might be a plus for fans of slower more planned out fights) until you get gear and got good then the game opens up. Moment to moment gameplay is good and gearing yourself up will keep you playing for a while for one more match. Major 'flaws' is one bad boss fight and NPCs that don't know when to stop talking

This game is sounding more and more like MGSV

Does the postgame go the same way like MGSV? You need to either get more FOBs and grind like hell to unlock more shit

The reward nerf is so fucking retarded. If you have to balance hard mode then you should either make it harder or nerf the rewards. NOT BOTH YOU JAPANESE RETARDS.
