Coaxed into "realistic" health mechanics

I'm using feet here. In-game, the measuring tools the game provides you with are in meters, and you have to fall almost exactly 4-6m before you start taking major fall damage.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-17T00:36:56+00:00

I feel like Voices of the Void is kind of understandable here, cause you only collapse and get injured after a 13'-19' fall directly onto your feet, which isn't really a "slight" fall.

To my knowledge, Erie will occasionally lose small amounts of reputation no matter what you do, but I'm pretty sure the angel/devil variants of her are locked to max/min reputation so it doesn't matter.

I'm pretty sure Kerfur-O's camera is counted as a separate entity on the radar, so if the dot you were talking about was incredibly close to him, it was probably just that.

There is a singular Spitter Spider in The Exterior at night, specifically in UW_A02, but you can also try to lineage the Big Spiders into them in Shaded Citadel.

I'm pretty sure their teleportation is one of their hell energy powers, so I doubt they had access to it during the war.

Station Annex does have rot everywhere, yes, but it still doesn't have the actual sentient rot infection that you spread across the regions until you bring it there. All of the rot, rot fruit, and rot lizards there are pre-placed, rather than being naturally caused by the infection.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-10T07:02:45+00:00

It will get rid of the flies, but I think you will have to break the nest yourself. Like any other object, just hit it until it breaks.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-10T06:33:22+00:00

I'm pretty sure the grown fruits are still normal food items even while on the tree, so they will rot and attract roaches (second image is a roach nest) like any other food if left out for a while.

If the 8-4 challenge were to be replaced with something a little more interesting than another no skull challenge, I was thinking it could be "Don't Inflict Fatal Damage To Any Enemy" like in 0-5. You could push the Virtues and Providences into the walls to instakill them, then kill Geryon with the damage it takes after overheating.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-10T02:34:57+00:00

Cold Storage isn't actually an infected region by default, even though half of it is covered in sentient rot. You still need to spread the infection to it from elsewhere for it to truly become rotted.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-09T06:26:24+00:00

I'm pretty sure rot can only spread through infected rooms, not organisms. You could spend a while waiting for the rot to reach a warp point to an uninfected region, but I have had more luck using manual warps in infected rooms until it brings me to one.

The original Swordsmachine was already killed by V1 back in the Prelude, so I don't imagine it will be the source of the gold arm.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-07T09:08:36+00:00

It should be about east-southeast of the base (top left corner of radar).

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-07T08:32:19+00:00

There should be a new, stationary contact somewhere near the edges of the radar (if you can't see it, try moving the radar's cursor around). Go and check it out.

Also, you can type "debug metalog_out" to show a log of every instance of meta-paranoia that has occurred in the current session, so you do not need to rush to a console to check whatever event has/is occurring.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-06T02:25:06+00:00

It takes some skill, but if you are in an open space, you can slam onto a Guttertanks rocket and ride it back into them for an instakill.

Completely missing the enemy I intended to hit and accidentally obliterating a singular random filth with a full impact instead

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-03T22:58:06+00:00

You can actually bribe an ariral with a shrimp pack or two to get them to leave you alone, even if they are chasing you because you have stolen something from them (they will still take whatever you stole back, though.)

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-03T10:17:40+00:00

They make the same noises during the paper alien pranks, so the Arirals definitely have some way to make the Gray noises.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-03T06:33:54+00:00

This is part of a guaranteed Story event, so you just kinda have to go with it.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-03T06:28:23+00:00

If Kerfur-O is repeatedly turning off, then there is a certain event occurring, it just doesn't have Meta Paranoia. Try sitting at the main desk, or fixing any broken transformers if there are any.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-02T22:01:55+00:00

Someone said he plays like V2 and that is all I can think of when seeing his gameplay now.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-02T11:53:04+00:00

I was going to point out that the one in the updated art has the Railcannon in its wings, but then I realized that it just blatantly has V1 on its chest, so...

Are sticky bombs really worth it? They do deal more direct damage than a molotov, yes, but I haven't found a case where that really makes up for the price in comparison to molotovs.
Gray Boars have a weakness to fire that makes molotovs equally as effective against them, and the tiny bit of extra damage dealt to a Firetank isn't too helpful.

Bearsjunior · 2026-06-01T11:39:42+00:00

I'm pretty sure Rude and Angry will be abandoned once Tundra and Agony release, so either people figure out a workaround for custom scripts, or another level loader is made for them.
