high damage to armor != ignoring armor

Why the fuck is the Driller default pistol such shit while the unlock one is best secondary?

Lot of default weapons are kinda poopoo. For Driller just stick to the infinite throwing Axe. Speaking of which are they ever going to make dedicated melee weapons instead of guns? I want the satisfaction of wielding some sort of power axe or two handed pickaxe that makes bugs explode every swing.

nigger do you actually ever use this weapon
you cant break armor with it, you dont a weakspot with it so it does a bit less damage, still best weapon

go away, ratto

Learn to use grappling hook.
You can melee flying shit or place down a turret. Driller can clear them for free. I guess don't be a fag with autocannon.

you mean =/=?

He probably isnt a programmer and was doing a lazy ≠, and the comparison operator for it depends on the language anyway.

>Learn
The problem is obviously the ledge grab, not the grapple, chucklefuck. You can't melee away an entire swarm of shockers that is already spreading to surround you. At that point you are just stunlocked and if there are any other enemies around you are likely fucked. The problem with the shockers is that they are totally silent and so they CAN just suddenly appear all around you.

Also, while I'm bitching, let's talk about those leeches that shoot off horizontally to drag you into a cave from what should have been a safe place to look for them before proceeding.

Is there any stronger pairing than engineer and scout? It's too fucking good to not always have.

no, it came so far that i can only see them in pairs
driller and gunner are just fancy extras

You need all 4 dwarves. You need light, platforms, driller's trash clearing and gunner is real nice for holding position with bubble and minigun.

I respect and appreciate scout but you do not really need it for anything. Light is good, hooking around is good, weakpoint damage is good, slow grenades are good, but none of these things are necessary. There is still no reason to really bring a scout over a second engineer or gunner. Maybe if they ever give him enough ammo for the m1000, he can work out better, but as-is he doesn't kill enough things fast enough and his main utility is simply a faster version of things other classes can do. And by that I mean the hook because light is nothing more than a convenience, that hook can clear a room of nitra fast, or kite stuff, or save a guy (preferably after kiting things away). Really, nothing can be done to make the scout justify his "niche", but there are a lot of little buffs that could go a long way towards justifying bringing him at all.

>slow grenades are good,
>but none of these things are necessary
lad haz 4 and 5 are imposible without the slow grenade also the scout is pretty good as a comebacl from a teamwipe thanks to the hook

I disagree. Some caves are absolute fucking ass to navigate without light. Scout is not good at killing trash, but he doesn't need to kill it. Other three dwarves can deal with trash. Special bugs fear Scout, he can instantly reach shrooms and fossils 50 meters above. Scout is a perfect mining slave that can quickly reach mule and platforms. Scout can kite a horde and clutch revive three others.

Lots of nodes would take a longass time to get at without a scout/engineer combo. I've seen alien eggs in the god damn ceiling of a hugeass cave. Scout kiting is the best safety net available in the game - if you don't fuck up you are unkillable. Without any real penalty for going down, that is so much more valuable than raw killing power. Big caves without flares are absolutely horrible, especially if you get a swarm.

>never use slow grenades
>play haz 5 exclusively
>getting teamwiped in the first place
sucks to be you, also why would you ever choose slow over pheromones

Not that guy, but slow nades let you kill grunts and swarmers if teammates are far away. Pheromones mean that someone else needs to clear your trash, but they are good of course.

>grapple over to vantage point
>hit weakspots of dangerous enemies without great distraction from much greater range than others, before they can become an issue
>stunlock enemies if they do get close
The game encompasses more than just climbing in a hole in the wall and shooting until everything is dead.

Love deep rock, but not playing till the new update. already put like 300 hours into it.

What armor upgrades should I be using? Do setups change for different classes?

Immunity to damage on revive and extra mineral capacity are blessed.

>it's free

These aren't armor upgrades, you dimwit.

Those are perks user, I asked about armor

I empathize with my dorf when he wakes up feeling like shit, only to go down into the bullshit that is the magma core

ph nvm

Scout can zip back and forth between nodes and the mule. Everyone else is just kinda fucked if someone calls the mule off to the other side of the cave.

>veteran deposit
You must be drunk.

Sweet tooth, weekend athlete, iron will, deep pockets and dwarf specific perk are better. Fall damage reduction on Scout, Zipline speed on Gunner, flare tossing on Engineer, whatever on Driller, he is already perfect.

What grenade to use on driller and why. Currently using neurotoxin to pick up my retarded teammates and soften up swarms.

Toxin is only good for mule repair missions to thin horde and pair up with freezing gun. Otherwise use throwing axes, very strong and always useful.

High explosive if you use the flamethrower. Neurotoxin if using the cryo cannon. Neurotoxin explosions are...painful.

>Not using vampire on driller for free heals

I don't use freezing gun often. I prefer sweet tooth.

>he will never revive his teammate with iron will plus field medic
also veteran deposit is amazing

>I don't use freezing gun often
Why the FUCK not

I don't do stupid shit like that. I kite the horde and then revive safely.

Because Flamethrower is really good if you pop exploding mod on it.

Pretty much the only games that have what you're demanding have subscriptions.

Just install it for like an hour.

>it can have a demo that's sort of a tutorial to explain the mechanics to you
The game comes with a tutorial mission already.

so what? that doesn't mean anything
they can be innovative and offer a demo without having any subscriptions

That means youre being a whiny bitch about this particular game in spite of an entire industry. No one here cares about your tantrum. Fuck off.

Dude, you don't need demos these days. You can literally watch entire game being played on youtube or live on twitch. How much more info do you need?

How about you fuck off and let people who are actually playing enjoy the game?

Getting a BET-C spawn on point extraction or salvage is the worst fucking shit. Big cave for it to fuck you up and you get constant spawns while trying to kill it. Only enemy in the game with hitscan attacks.

You know that you can just leave it alone until everyone is ready.

That's retarded. Is every 4 player coop game L4D now?

free != bad
People were holding off because of it being Early Access. You have a weekend to try it.

The nose knows.

Acid spitters take time to get into position and infectors are immobile. BET-C will chase you down and pound your ass. You can't reliably LoS the guns from multiple angles which is pretty much the ONLY way to actually be able to hit the last infection nodes to finish it off.

It always always gets accidentally activated by someone stumbling upon it.

Get the driller to make a tunnel up to it. Their brains are usually on more than half of the time.

>stumbling
It beeps with almost global range. You have to be retarded to just jump into it.

I said 'someone.' Lots of people aren't good with positional audio and it'll have spawned at an edge for LoS. Also they don't spawn very often so it's common for people to not even know about them.

Learn to love the piss clouds. You can breathe it in safely, and it makes the little buggers go AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>It always always gets accidentally activated by someone stumbling upon it.
Its honestly shocking how clueless some people are. Like, the moment i hear that sound echo past deeprockgalactic.gamepedia.com/File:InfectedMulePulsatingA_1.mp3 i put that shit in chat. When you're right next to it it's near fucking deafening and the aggro range is really well defined at 7m but people still just walk right into it.

>horde their flares like they're made of gold
I'll give you this, I don't know why scouts are so fucking stingy with them. I have no ammo upgrades and spam them and I still don't run out.

Legit hoping for a fifth Slayer class, which is in practice just two pickaxes. Less versatility as the other classes, but doesn't require any ammo to function his kit.

Driller, ideally, is the smartest player on the team or at least has the most critical thinking. He has to be able to chart 3d space while in motion while in real time He has to be the most aware of terrain both affecting his objective and his teams survival and make alterations to it for his purposes. Just basic shit like leveling defense points or excavating obstructions in the team's sightlines requires more thought than most of gunner. Because of this, though, driller cannot be team leader since he's going to be enormously distracted, just in time spent, building up and breaking down.
No driller should end any mission with more than 10 fuel left.

It has the best minerals though

Cave Leeches are fucking cancer. Why would you put in something so obnoxious? Smokers, Jockeys and Skaven packmasters atleast have an obvious sound que to let them know they're there. Cave Leecbes have nothing.

Yeah but driller is doing it while face first into textures, staring at a shite map trying to make heads or tails of where preexisting tunnels, caverns, and drops are as his team is screaming in pain.
Some exaggeration obviously but a good driller turns impossible stretches and FUCKING MOLLY paths into assured wins. No one else can so cleanly clutch a win out with brains rather than reactions and aim.

They're an easy way to tell if you have a shit scout

Did you try looking up?

Scout clutches are pretty high up there, though
Even if he could "clutch," I think Gunner would fall under that "reactions and aim" bit at the end

>Scout clutches are pretty high up there, though
Not saying he ain't but he does it through running away well and throwing giant cc pits. Its also the fact that when driller does it the others don't notice as much. When he takes a detour into a preexisting tunnel the rest are too focused on bugs and markerlights to realize just how close to death they were if he just brainlessly kept drilling straight whereas everyone gets to watch when the scout gets the iron will zipline res.

Free?

Its free this weekend you idort

>Not saying he ain't but he does it through running away well and throwing giant cc pits
Driller could be given the same reductionist bit, though: he does it through ignoring the terrain and shooting giant cc pits.

What's the best secondary for gunner

Yes and the cave ceiling is pitch fucking black. Maybe if the flashlights weren't pieces of shit I could see better.

burst fire

Get a good scout who flares up every room.
Or be the change you see in the world and do it yourself.

Played the game 2-3 months ago it was meh. Has it gotten any better?

>he does it through ignoring the terrain
Not really no. He doesn't ignore it he sculpts it. He sculpts it so that his all his mates expectations and habits align and so that all of his foes get the opposite of what they want. I can drill holes and tunnels as much as i want and technically be doing the correct thing but if my friends are still having to use more resources to accomplish expediently then i'm not drilling as well as i could. Scout is just grappling. I'm sure there is some scout out there who knows the entire aggro system by heart and can draw the whole swarm while remaining untouched but until I see it I cannot honestly say that he takes as much skill as driller. I'd honestly say scout is about even on skill required as gunner.
And ground fire builds aren't that good anymore.

I think you're trying to make the drills seem more complicated than they actually are as a driller main, which is fine and all, but actual player skill is much more important than the perceived "skill requirement" for playing the classes.
You can explain that you're "sculpting" the environment, but if it's achieving the exact same result that other people get just through drilling basic lines through the ground, that would be skill ceiling and not skill floor.

Whats some cool shit to do as driller? All I know to do is dig out the space behind the satellite relay thing and dig straight to the escape pod

Do Bunkers, Dig into a wall until your drills are about to overheat, toss a block of c4 and detonate it. Now bugs have only one way to come in and your whole team can shoot at it simultaneously.
Just be ready to dig a escape route at the drop of a Bulkie boy

Sell me on it

You can dig a space into a wall to hold a swarm with a secondary space to fall back into and predrill an escape route that you can finish busting open in a moment to get the fuck away from the bulk detonator that suddenly squeezes into your hole.

Do you need the terrain destruction upgrade on c4 for that?

Nah, it's better without it, with it the hole gets too deep and awkward

How painful is pugging in this game? I like the gameplay, but only have like 12 hours played because I've only played it with friends.

Just choose something that lets you be self-sufficient.

Usually you'll get some good competent players if you play Haz 3 or above (but don't go above until yer' well equipped for it). They usually like to lend a hand. It's Haz 1-2 where you get the brainlets. Just make sure you can hold your own an' you don't gotta worry at all.

Effective ammo management is a huge part of the game. If someone had a limitless sword that would take some of the thrill out, honestly.

Drill slight declines all around relays to give both highground and open sightlines. Break down corners. Drill out proper bunkers that don't need an engi to seal it. Dig out trenches for cover against ranged shites or to catch all the droppings and grenades. Fill said trenches with fire/ice for bugs. Drill out pillars so bugs have to go all the way down and back up. Soften up inclines/declines so your team can sprint reliably and generally offer safer paths.
Only engi controls enemy pathfinding as much as driller does, always try and channel them into as tight a group as possible for your gunner and engi to clean up safely. The more important bit is how much fuel you have compared to everyone else's mobility. Gunners have 4 zips, engineers have 24-32 platforms, and scouts contribute nothing directly to the team's movement. You can accomplish many, many smaller tasks reserving the more limited resources for major ones like bridging gaps and plugging holes.

I'm an Engineer.

Platform.

Played it with friends during the last free weekend.
It was fun, but it seemed like it'd get old really quick with the limited mission types.

FOUND SOMETHIN
LOOK!

It's a little limited right now, but I still got 100 hours of enjoyment out of what is currently here.

If you don't enjoy the core gameplay then yeah don't get it but in this month they're going to add the first of two updates that majorly flesh out the endgame and add a good bit more variety.
And different biomes can feel like entirely new missions sometimes not to mention the weird and fun things cave gen can do at points. Regardless, I encourage you to give it another go. I'm about 260 hours played and they're only adding more content .

Just trying it out this weekend.
What the fuck is with all the scouts?
The hookshot is nice but it doesn't do anything for you once you get where you're going.

WE'RE RICH

>What the fuck is with all the scouts?

Scouts are popular because they're the most independent. The grappling hook means they have the most mobility and can flee most fights at will. They're one of the worst at teamwork though. Unless they stick near their engineer like they should.

still can get a free event hat tho

The hat is pretty ugly, honestly. Thank goodness it's only 1 credit a pop.

sure fucking is, back to corporate marine

I'm more of a slit helm kind of guy. Airs out the beard.

I've been playing it even before it was free, user.

Are drillers all that useful?
It seems like digging into nearby tunnels through dirt is still fairly fast even with one dwarf, and it doesn't seem like you can drill up ores either.

Just make the melee weapons use ammo. Chainsaw, pneumatic hammer, vibro-axe, shotgun fists, etc.

maybe on the sand maps but not having a driller for the volcano levels where it takes 3 hits to break stone fucking blows

P L A T F O R M !

Hm, maybe I'll give Engineer a shot next time I end up in a sand map then.

Driller can do quite a lot. He has the best crowd control weapons, ideal for mopping up swarmers and naedocytes. He can shutdown exploders (including detonators if you're ballsy) by freezing them. He can build bunkers for his team which is the dominant strategy for surviving hazard 5 swarms. He can drill to the pod at the end of missions. He can build stairs where a zipline might be too costly or too steep. He's the best at excavating gems. He can drill around the objectives on salvage to give your team room to fight. Lastly he has the most powerful burst damage weapon in the game with his satchels.

any anons willing to play with me

I've never played it before

>try this game before dropping money on it ages ago
>runs like absolute dog shit
>run it now on windows 10 ltsc
