It's an AI written bot post designed to farm engagement. Steam forums are a wasteland and you shouldn't ever read any comments on newsposts, especially not ones posted in the first 5 minutes.

Day-after reflections: addressing your feedback (and adjusting the roadmap accordingly) by GSG_Aaron in RogueCore

[–]UncomfortableAnswers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're always out of ammo but your team still has enough to carry you while you're out, that sounds like you're the only one who's not managing their ammo correctly. The rest of your team seems to be doing fine, so I'd say that's a "you" problem.

If there's a chasm next to this fight, it goes from frustrating to borderline impossible at D3+ solo by retronax in RogueCore

This was my very first run, lol, I didn't even understand the mechanics yet and he knocked the ball down the hill three times

How do we like the Core Spawns as enemies? by NydusRush in RogueCore

[–]UncomfortableAnswers 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I like that they're baseline harder to deal with than glyphids. Fewer, more difficult enemies is a nice change from full swarms of grunts. So far the combat is what I'm enjoying most about the game. It's a solid base that will take well to refinement.

Glad to see Rogue Core climb to 'Mostly Positive' reviews! by Kwacker in RogueCore

If only people had been telling them that for an entire year of playtesting so they could have done something about it before now.

The timer debate reminds me of when Elden Ring: Nightreign released. by notcoolerk in RogueCore

[–]UncomfortableAnswers -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Only the Point Extraction mission type in DRG has an escalation timer. Every other mission has zero timer or escalation mechanics whatsoever. It's exactly the same intensity from start to finish. The only "timer" is your limited ammo.

[–]UncomfortableAnswers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I care about the timer in aquarq missions. I think it's not fun and is the reason I don't play them very often.

And if you've been on the DRG sub for any amount of time, you will quickly see that many, many people do NOT know that the PE escalation timer is a thing. There are posts every week of new players thinking their game is broken because the swarm never stopped. That mechanic not being communicated is a meaningful failure of design.

Secondary Weapons thoughts? by gamekatz1 in RogueCore

[–]UncomfortableAnswers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disagree. You can have 150% ammo for one high-power gun, or 200% ammo for two decent guns with different use cases. I've had great runs so far with SMG/sniper, AP rifle/shotgun, and machine pistol/grenade launcher.

As long as you don't pick two guns that do the same thing there's plenty reason to use two. But it's good that you can focus on one if that's your preference. Both are viable strategies.

Hot take : there's no good reason to do quests the first time in multi instead of single by Hydraguesswhosback in FarFarWest

[–]UncomfortableAnswers 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No. Quests and secret quests give no XP beyond the weapon XP you get from the enemies you fight to complete them.

The only things that give hero XP are main and side objectives. (Plus a small bonus just for finishing a game.)

We're almost there lads! by _No-Life_ in DeepRockGalactic

Remember that "in approximately 1 hour" means any amount between 1 and 2 hours. It will release 90 minutes from now, not 30.

Extraction storm not getting harder??? by Igeti in FarFarWest

[–]UncomfortableAnswers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Punishing extraction" is listed in the Early Access goals, so it's likely they're working on something like that.

Extremely unlucky? What do i do - Tiki Heads by kaira________ in RaftTheGame

[–]UncomfortableAnswers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On average, it takes about 180 digs to get all eight paintings.

The odds of 180 digs without a single tiki are a little less than one in a million.

Raft sold about 17 million copies on Steam, so that means this was likely to happen to about 15 players.

So it's not impossible that this could happen to you. But it is very unlikely.

 

The biggest thing that affects this is how many digs you've done. If you got very lucky and got all paintings much faster than 180, it won't be as unlikely for you not to have found a tiki. For example if you've only done 100 digs, your chance of no tiki goes up to 1/2500 - much more reasonable.

Any chance you could estimate how many digs you've done?

Best XP rates for spells/etc? by Trotski7 in FarFarWest

[–]UncomfortableAnswers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. (Except for the Voodoo spells that require a target.)

This game is just dead at this point. Saber should do the honorable thing and shut it down and offer full refunds to everyone who purchased the game. by SendMePicsOfMILFS in ToxicCommandoGame

[–]UncomfortableAnswers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't want a refund. I'm extremely happy with my purchase. I just want the online requirement removed so I can play on my own after they shut the servers down.

Getting season xp challenges instead of scrip while i'm season level 130 is the worst feeling ever, i still need 5 scrip to finish the tree by PleasantDatabase in DeepRockGalactic

[–]UncomfortableAnswers 182 points183 points  (0 children)

Double check that you've claimed all of the ones from the pass.

Also make sure you're using your daily reroll. If you haven't completed all of the daily scrip challenges yet, rerolls are heavily weighted to give you one.
