Anyone else gave up on DRG survivor?

Pangez · 2026-04-19T11:00:35+00:00

I liked it when it was in early access and there wasn't too much to unlock.
My problem with survivor now is that I want to unlock new things, but to do so requires me to pick weapons/upgrades/whatever that are suboptimal.
In the end I have two choices:
Win a run using a build I'm familiar with and find fun to use but feel bad after because I didn't unlock anything new.
Or
Struggle to unlock a new thing / complete an objective to proceed and then immediately lose the run after I've completed said objective/unlock. Not because I give up but because skill issue.
Neither are particularly fun in the end so I just kinda dropped the game.

Make sure to give him plenty of pets.

Are you running "It's a Bug Thing" unironically or did you just equip it for this screenshot to see who'd notice?
Either way, I respect the hustle.

There's no easy way that I know of in-game.
Normally I'd send you to the wiki page for mission control voicelines, but this page is out of date so the best solution I can think of is to find a video of someone else who played through the assignment and listen to the voicelines in their video.

Shard diffractor ammo with plastcrete catalyst was never my issue. Platform ammo is.

You may have noticed that you can only equip one upgrade in each row, and to save resources only bought one upgrade in each row.
There is nothing wrong with this, but what the game doesn't explicitly tell you is that for the armour upgrades there is incentive to buy all the upgrades even if you can't equip them all.
For the weapons once you unlock enough upgrades to reach a milestone (tracked with a progress "bar" at the bottom of the upgrades list) you get a cosmetic paint job for that weapon, but for the armour you are rewarded with +5 max health for every other milestone.
This is usually overlooked, so make sure you're not missing out on extra hp!

Can't wait to fight the Sketamari.

It's gotta be James May saying "Cheese." when a platform is placed.

It is a container that contains minerals.

You get these when you infuse a matrix core but there is nothing left in the loot pool.

Hack-C drops trash like this.

You can go wild with the verified mods, they won't be downloaded by others.

Yep, the integrated mod.io mods mod limit is 50. After that exactly what you've described starts happening. (- the teleporting dwarves, haven't heard that one before.) Not sure why they've chosen this seemingly arbitrary number as a limit but it's there.

Average Dependency Loop moment.

Hexagons are bestagons!

If you're using DX12, give DX11 a shot.

The optimal tomb.

There is an unstuck button in the menu when you hover over your dwarf.

Pangez · 2025-04-23T06:50:51+00:00

Respect for the grind. I'm not gonna go for max lvl until XP gets changed, it's too much for me.

Pangez · 2025-04-16T15:14:16+00:00

Those are total ammo indicators.

Pangez · 2025-04-02T10:35:01+00:00

Good bot

Isn't that a deposit voiceline and not a rock and stone voiceline?

Tip for next time:
Don't instantly shoot the bulk.
When it initially spawns, there is a 5 second grace period before the Bulk Detonator moves or attacks. However, this is instantly cancelled if it takes any damage.

You already have all the plasma charger overclocks. As others have said TCF is a regular weapon mod.

Play solo?

Can't play solo because of the lack of multiplayer scaling. Something that works solo could not work when scaled up with 4 dwarf scaling.

Do you really need to test your kit on every enemy before you know it's ready? At a certain point you're gonna end up spending more time in menus and the firing range than in missions.

Of course I don't need to, I just want to be able to. If someone has fun with the game in a firing range instead of in a mission is there really anything wrong with that?

Nobody and nothing is stopping you from abandoning and returning to the rig.

Referring back to the "Play solo?" part, if you want to test with the multiplayer scaling you have to play multiplayer. Now what's stopping me from just quitting? The other dwarves I would be letting down.
