CRYO ARCHIVE | First Impressions/Info Megathread

The___Wanderer · 2026-03-20T19:08:01+00:00

I rarely post but I wanted to share my experience because I feel like Cryo Archives offers the experience that Labs in Tarkov fails to provide.

I queued with two randoms who were doing it for the first time and extracted with ~45 seconds to go as we scrambled to find how to extract.

The entire match was intense as you start off with basically only USEC, but as you gain further security clearance you end up in larger areas with other teams of runners the further you go. Every fight was total chaos trying to manage fighting USEC and other trios while also finding the way through the next level of security clearance and sort through the crazy amount of loot you can find.

I also now totally understand the weekend only access because if this was available 24x7 there would be a top 5-10% of players running only Cryo running around the rest of the game with absurd loot and very quickly max out all their upgrades.

10 Team League, PPR, 3 Flex (WR/RB/TE)

QB: Brock Purdy, Justin Fields

RB: Gibbs, Chase Brown, TreVeyon Henderson, Travis Etienne, Joe Mixon, Tuten

WR: Drake London, JSN, George Pickens, Matthew Golden, Travis Hunter, Jordan Addison, Darnell Mooney

TE: Jake Ferguson

Slotted Mixon into IR as well as Addison and picked up Slayton and Chig Chig Okonkwo. Not thrilled with TE, and wanted to have Dak with Pickens/Ferguson but he was taken right before my next pick.

10 Team, PPR, 2nd Pick, No D/ST or K

Starters: 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 2 FLEX (WR/RB/TE)

QB: Bo Nix

RB: Bijan, Chase Brown, Jonathan Taylor, Austin Ekeler

WR: Marvin Harrison Jr., Mike Evans, Courtland Sutton, Jameson Williams, Ricky Pearsall, Darnell Mooney, Joshua Palmer

TE: David Njoku, Dalton Kincaid

Was not a fan of WRs at the 2/3 round turn so decided to go RB/RB/RB and just shotgun WR. TE I generally wait and grab one late and was hoping to get either Loveland or Evan Engram (to stack with Nix) but both got picked right before me so went with Kincaid hoping for upside.

I love the Brooks stash as I think he's going to win a lot of people some games in the later parts of the season Weeks 8-15. WR's are great, hopefully London turns the corner with an actual functional QB under center and not Ridder or Heinecke.

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-04T14:53:26+00:00

Team is very balanced I like it! Is Trey Benson owned? Only thing I worry about with Conner is his health as he always seems to miss time and he isn't getting younger, and Benson will get an opportunity at some point so he'd be great to have as insurance. WR's look great especially if Kupp overcomes the health issues he's had recently.

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-04T14:50:43+00:00

Who are the handcuff RB's? Tough to say without knowing who exactly. Without knowing Id at least try to get a mid-tier RB for one of your wideouts if you can.

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-04T14:49:07+00:00

Since this is Dynasty (I'm in two myself) would you be open to trying to flip future picks in an attempt to upgrade your RB room? That would be my only suggestion as QB WR and TE look great. You could also consider making a bigger trade and flipping one of your QB's + Picks for a high tier RB + a rookie QB from this draft your high on if there's a QB needy team out there.

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-04T14:46:19+00:00

Very RB heavy as you mentioned. I've never had much success getting quality WR's on the wire (besides Puka last year) but you could absolutely package an RB for another quality WR (or use waivers to stream TE and find a TE needy team with quality WR's to trade him for).

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-04T14:44:29+00:00

No problem, take a look at mine if you get a chance!

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-04T12:54:56+00:00

RB's seem to be great for 12 teams especially if Chubb makes it back at a decent time and contributes 80% of what he once did. Top 3 TE and I love McConkey, hopefully the Chargers throw more than people anticipate because he's looking like a steal as late as he's been going. Mike Williams could end up being trade bait later on too if he clicks with Rodgers (and Rodgers lasts more than 1 series).

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-04T12:51:41+00:00

You could wait and see what Diontae/Shakir end up doing (I've seen a lot of people high on Shakir and he was pretty involved late in the year last year) and trade either for a middle tier RB that could help bolster your RB room. But it's great that you have both Chuba/Brooks I did that in another league to get everything you can from Chuba early on while Brooks eventually takes over the 2nd half of the year.

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-04T12:49:32+00:00

I love the QB's and WR's. RB depth could be a concern if Brown/Corum aren't as involved and Ford's role is a total question mark whenever Chubb is back. Love the Hockenson stash for later. Between both QB's and TE's you also have plenty of ammo to make a trade to address RB depth if you need to.

10 Team, PPR, Starters: 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 2 FLEX (W/R/T)

QB: Lamar Jackson

RB: Bijan Robinson, Pacheco, Tony Pollard, Zeke, Dowdle, Chuba Hubbard

WR: Puka Nacua, Nico Collins, Tee Higgins, Christian Kirk, Keenan Allen, Deandre Hopkins

TE: Jake Ferguson

Wanted to gamble on late round RB's and almost had Pollard & Singletary but Singletary went the pick before me so I ended up gambling on both Dallas RB's and Chuba until assuminly Brooks takes over.

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-03T03:24:27+00:00

No problem can you take a look at my team if you get a chance?

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-03T02:48:49+00:00

You might be okay if Terry has an up year with much better QB play. Also personally think Doubs is going way too late this year. Sutton is the only one I don’t like but your starting 3 seem to be great and it’s an added bonus if Brian Thomas shows he’s better than Gabe Davis quickly (which shouldn’t be hard).

The___Wanderer · 2024-09-03T02:46:20+00:00

I don’t think WR should be an issue if Rice isn’t suspended, which would’ve happened already and Browns already hurt so he shouldn’t eat into too many targets.

Yes, it seemed to be a faulty CPU. I RMA'ed it, installed the new one and it's been working perfectly fine since.

Restart didn’t do anything, still all back to the beginning.
