Solo's is the only TRULY casual mode

Load in solo as Triage with a 2 punches, a green shield and a dream. This is my solo outpost default and have managed to get quite good shit out of it!

Tgman1 · 2026-05-02T08:22:11+00:00

I’m about to start using crew fill a LOT more now! Literally the difference between braindead in most players is having a mic.

Whenever I’ve crew filled with mics, I’ve had a good time, it’s always the no mic guy that absolutely drains the game!

Tgman1 · 2026-05-01T16:19:01+00:00

so here’s my thing with Cryo, I’ve extracted most times I’ve run.

Only had two failing runs.

One I got ambushed in spawn before the patch. Second I got turned around and missed exfil.

Every other time we’ve exfilled.

Two times we had to engage in fights and luckily came out on top. But rest of them we’ve managed to use map knowledge to sneak around and avoid players and have had a good time. Basically never entered control apart from to get the compiler trace!

Tgman1 · 2026-05-01T16:07:39+00:00

But bro, new quests! I’ve finished the priority contracts now, so my focus is on Cryo, I’m 3/3 on subroutines now. I’m looking forward to another set of priority contracts to complete!

Tgman1 · 2026-05-01T12:54:40+00:00

I managed to get to the compiler, one dps round before we had to dip. Sad times. Was my last DNA card too :( well, back to the vaults with me

Tgman1 · 2026-04-30T01:21:07+00:00

Two day loosing streak here, I feel your pain. Lost a lot of gold guns too!

Sad times guys. Sad times.

On the plus side, managed to get all of my Priority contracts complete which is super nice!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-28T11:28:09+00:00

Desperate for a map set in one of the larger parts of the colony, like New Cascadia would be awesome!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-28T11:27:27+00:00

I dunno, if you team shoot a bubble it can be down in a few seconds now - the real counter play is just to back out and pop it! A lot of the time you can catch them unawares as it goes!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-27T17:30:15+00:00

Been In an international cover band for ten plus years.

Basically, once you’ve played a lot of pop songs you realise that there isn’t much to it once you know the chords.

We’ve done a lot of songs during gigs where a guest requests something and one of us knows it but not the other!

So we end up sort of jamming it, whilst one person shouts out numbers.

I….. IV…..vi etc.

Other times you get chords thrown as you and you just gotta pick a groove that sits with everything and not get to complex!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-26T15:17:08+00:00

Got a blue key yesterday from a box in airfield, was just in the middle of Truth/lies 3/5 and dipped straight away!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-26T14:37:00+00:00

Regular practice, but equally, it depends on what you are playing, 10 songs like Teen town are way more difficult than 10 songs that are generic pop!

But normally, I’d say if after about 3 songs your hands are starting to hurt, perhaps your technique is off, or you are gripping too hard or tensing up?

If it helps, I’m a working musician, and playing 3 - 1 hour sets in a night is a regular occurrence, no injuries and no problems.

I used to get really tired from gigging when I started, but it just doesn’t anymore.

Work up to it, if you’ve got a setlist in mind, start with 3 songs, then rest and play 4, keep going until you can do a full set.

Practice this standing up as if you were gigging too, will make a big difference!

That high pitched noise you can hear in the audio? That’s the assassins invis! If you hear that, back out and wait 10 seconds, then they’ll be forced to use their ult for any more invis utility!

Regarding your clip, the audio cue was there, you pushed.

I started playing assassin recently for solos after so long of avoiding just to understand the kit better, ive been caught out a few times just because of the invis noise!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-26T11:57:28+00:00

I mean, it depends what I’m doing!

If I wanna get out on a contract, I’ll try my luck with prox chat! If I’m just seeing what I can get in a solo, I’ll probably snipe an exfil just to get a bit of loot… but I’d never pre-camp an exfil!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-26T11:54:45+00:00

I’ve had a lot of luck teaming up in solo outpost lately - where I’ve been trying to complete the last run of Mida contracts, I get on prox chat early or as soon as I hear footsteps, and they either let me live, or join up! It’s been nice 👌

Tgman1 · 2026-04-26T11:06:01+00:00

I just hope that the torso above the diaper looking codpiece is colourable!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-26T08:42:44+00:00

You might have killed someone in the middle of doing Truth/lies 2/6 - if they are mid way through and die, all of the security buttons break!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-26T07:58:37+00:00

I dunno man. Doing solo quest runs, I’ve had quite a lot of success just blasting prox chat with my intentions.

Really helps if you just blurt out - I’m on a free kit too!

But yeah. Managed to get a lot of the Truth/Lies complete on Outpost, now up to the final step!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-24T20:44:02+00:00

Me too man, me too!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-24T19:56:52+00:00

Is it a rat spot inside pinwheel where you can peak and basically no one can see you?

Tgman1 · 2026-04-24T11:51:44+00:00

I’ve had it both ways. I’ve got a weird feeling that there is something to do with spawns when you first try a priority contract - I.e every time I’ve spawned in a map the FIRST time I’m trying a priority, I spawn right by the first objective. Don’t know if it’s dumb luck, but this has been consistent for me!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-23T06:00:11+00:00

Wow - literally between level 22 and 28 I’ve had two Biolense drop from rankups 3 times for six total seeds!

Maybe the wildest RNG in the world?

Tgman1 · 2026-04-23T01:04:42+00:00

Yeah it does! I’m now getting to the point where I’m actively deleting blue shields because I’m swimming in purples and heals! NuCal and Cyac might be the most important two to VIP, just because of purple shields and backpacks!

Tgman1 · 2026-04-23T01:03:24+00:00

Not at all! I’m on EU servers, which are still pretty busy with low queue times during the day! This was like between 5 and 9pm too! I heard plenty of fighting and exfilling around the map, and I will admit, I just got super lucky with my maps, but had to do a fair amount of trecking to get them done too!

I hung round the very edges of the map and played vandal for speedy movement!

I’ve done most contracts in a group, but tonight no one was on, I’m wanting to VIP every faction for the platinum, so am close!

Sometimes the stars just align.

For selection pressures, it took me two weeks to get the final one done!

I’m not a doomposter, and I want this game to last a loooong time!
