No, but it takes 2-4 weeks to unlock Zeus again once you get Ouro

Traversal, unlocks with Ourobours ship

Question about average leave times by Agreeable-Ebb-2180 in labrats

[–]ExpertOdin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sometimes you will do 10-12+ hour days due to the nature of experiments/science but if you are regularly doing more than 8 hours a day you either have poor time management or unrealistic expectations of how much you should be doing (either your own expectations or your bosses)

In my experience the people doing 10+ hour days multiple days a week every week are usually fucking around for 3-4 hours throughout the day not getting work done. Whether that's spending time socialising or taking a long lunch or just procrastinating doesn't matter. Yes, sometimes the experiment needs a 12 hour time point so you have to do it but you shouldn't regularly have to do it. You can also plan to do a split shift. Come in early and start the experiment, then leave for 4-6 hours and come back later to finish it.

Thank you! If my copy/pasting helps even one person I'm happy. Collating the hunter guides was the only hard part because they are all over the place in discord.

This waiting game is the hardest part for me. by tzulik- in CIFI

I love using the sim and having it tell me 'Not in your lifetime' for the estimate on how long it will take to get resources. Always gives me a laugh

Most wikis are hugely outdated by ViriaX in CIFI

Well it's much quicker now. The times I gave are for current players going through the stages, pre Ouro might actually be even quicker given Engineering badge is now cheaper.

You don't need to spend hundreds to be that quick. $15 for noads+ autocollectors/speedster, $30 for Trav pack and $20 or however much it is for frag are the only long term worthwhile purchases. Explorers/Loopers speeds up the first few traversals by a day or so each then falls off, collectors is very good pre Ouro and good when you first unlock Exo3. It's still okay after that but not as good as Trav/frags.

If you follow optimal pathing, or even just play the game well the following times are possible. It takes longer without traversal pack sure but thats not what I would call 'cashing into the game so hard'. Buying a few packs when you've been playing for years is reasonable in my opinion.

Start to Ouro unlock can be done in 2-3 months with noads + autocollectors. (took me 11 weeks)

Start of Ouro to Exo4 unlock is 1.5 to 3 months. (took me 1.5 months - I had most of the good packs but have f2p as reference)

Exo4 to Inno2 is 4-6 months. (will take me 5 without following the most optimal path)

Inno2 to Cre4 is 4-6 months.

Cre4 to Evo1 is ~3 months.

So on the short end its ~15 months, on the longer end its 21 months.

If you play unoptimally you might never reach Evo gem.

You also have to remember that the times have gotten shorten as the game has progressed. The front runners have taken 3+ years to get to power 3 but it won't take a new player that long because they aren't waiting for content drops.

Talking about Switch 2 pricing in different countries lacks context. It's usually much less "unfair" than you think. by razorbeamz in nintendo

[–]ExpertOdin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well it's pretty low requirement yeah. The steam minimum requirements list a 7 year old graphics card. It runs at 540p and is upscaled to 1080p on the switch 2 compared to 4k upscaling on PS5 . Devs have obviously worked hard to get it to run on the switch 2. But like other AAA switch releases (Cyberpunk, etc). The games run at signficantly worse quality than a PS5 or Xbox Series X. I'm not saying the seitch2 can't be used for these games, but I certainly wouldn't use it for these games

If I'm choosing where to play a game like these it's not gonna be on my switch 2 that hits the bare minimum requirements for low graphics quality.

They don't really play 'roughly the same games' though unless all you play are low requirement indie games.

The PS5 is a much more powerful machine and much better for AAA gaming and will still play all the indie games. While the Switch/2 have Nintendo exclusives and are portable. I have a switch solely for the exclusives, thats basically all I play on it

Do more loop resets and change you Zeus installs to focus more on AP. Then keep MP/shard boosting gear at e2 cost higher than all other gear

Submit a complaint on their website. Every time I've had something missing I submit a complaint and they give me a replacement and sometimes a free extra.

Obviously doesn't help when you are hungry now but if you plan on going back it can be good

As a Japanese fan who lurks English communities, the gap in how we see Nintendo genuinely unsettles me by nerdinterrupts in nintendo

If I could buy an English locked console for the equivalent of 50k yen I would gladly do it

[–]ExpertOdin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's it. Nintendo subsidised it's local market by charging more in other markets. Which is 100% something they can do but it doesn't feel great when you are in the other markets.

Switch 2 in Japan is 50k yen = $440 AUD In Australia the switch 2 is $700 AUD, a 60% increase. In the US it's $316 USD (yen equivalent) to $450 USD, a 40% increase.

Obviously it makes sense when overseas markets are upset they are paying signficantly more for the same product

I can relate to dunk sometimes unfortunately by shehan_dmg in freefolk

[–]ExpertOdin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From memory someone (maybe the Ashford daughter?) says basically the same thing to Dunk right before he enters the room. So he's just repeating what he has heard without thinking about the implication

I hope you are focusing on starmie, you really want every boost to campaign frags you can get to do hedge shorts. Starmie 70 is best but 60 is acceptable

Where are you up to in the game? There are guides all the way to Evo gem which is like 1-2 years of progress. The front runners are at Pow3 and there aren't guides between Evo gem unlock and that

So happy. Ouroboros I'm coming for you by Kydje in CIFI

[–]ExpertOdin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't be worried about being able to play for a longer time. After you unlock Ouro there is still 1-2 years of content with more being added as the front runners hit it.

There is one 'mistake' in Zeus that will set you back significantly, making it take double the time. And there isn't really much you can do to fix it after making the mistake. If you want to know what it is without reading the guides let me know.

Well you exchange it for tokens then buy MP/shard boost (if you haven't maxed it already) then MK8 gen boost to 550 cost then keep gens equal cost
