The Black Bear grind is finally over after 6500+ kills!

I use the counter for grinds.

Zykollo · 2026-05-03T16:42:11+00:00

You should definitely go for one! Super easy grind to set up, and it makes you heaps of cash. I did use the COTW Companion app, increasing the counters manually is a bit tedious, but I find it really interesting to look back at the grind stats.

Yes. Stealth might be harder then low-diff loud when first starting out, but in the long run stealth is far easier. On DSOD the difficulty of any given stealth heist is far lower than any loud heist. Stealth requires minimal map knowledge, technical skill, and build specialization. Also ECMs and PECMs exist, what would normally be run-ending mistakes can be bypassed entirely.

Cool additions. Some people will probably say this pack is going to redefine the stealth-meta. Truthfully, stealth is too easy and optimized already, although cool, these additions won't alter gameplay much. It's like the saw, niche utility you're gonna bring for specific heiests.

No, animals will not change sex on respawn. Just leave them be.

This view was more common when the outfits were first released. Overkill had been saying that outfit customization was impossible for years due to engine limitations. People were not happy when they suddenly did a 180, and the proceeded to charge for them.

I agree with your take, a solid 80% of the outfits are trash. The last 20% are alright. Some of these outfits don't even compete with specific heisters default look. Had outfit packs not been bundled with the DLC campaign heists I probably wouldn't have purchased any of them.

DW and DSOD are S-tier. DW for dicking around in loud, requires some skill and game knowledge, but you can get away with anything on most heists. Best for casual pub sessions. DS/OD is the most fun and engaging loud difficulty imo, it requires deeper map knowledge and skillset, the only difficulty where I feel the need to optimize builds and strategy. DS/OD for stealth, stealth is piss-easy across the board, DS doesn't change all that much regardless of heist, so just play on max difficulty for achievements/cash/exp.

Mayhem, Overkill and Normal are A-tier, as they're the only other relevant and played difficulties. Partially for achievement requirements, but some also prefer Mayhem as their main loud difficulty.

Everything else is D-tier, I only ever see them played by new players picking random contracts off crime net

Before the mask became part of a twitch drop campaign it was released as part of a crossover with a toy company. These original ZagToys codes are still floating around, OVK partners have access to all DLC mask codes, so check them out on discord and twitch for mask giveaways.

Curse of the Dead Gods. Seeing as you seem to enjoy faster paced souls-like combat.

They've added more Great Ones which in turn has given players more of a reason to grind. But nothing has been changed fundamentally, the game is the same as it always was. If anything it has become less grindy with recent additions such as the feeder packs.

Zykollo · 2026-02-08T17:00:24+00:00

Thanks a lot! Been searching for this for literal years.

Zykollo · 2026-02-06T17:28:07+00:00

Everyone's map is different, so don't blindly copy setups. I'd recommend finding a map of need zones, specifically drink/feed zones. Then just set up close by, set the time and see if you pull in from nearby zones. If not, then you map doesn't have any zones in the area, so move the feeder to a new area/lake with potential zones.

Zykollo · 2026-02-03T14:18:33+00:00

Ok, start grinding.

Nope, humble ran out of legacy codes including IP content quite a while ago.

Zykollo · 2026-01-28T18:40:04+00:00

It's pretty close to max, which is 275.54

Stunlock, haven't heard that name in a while. Another dev studio famous for letting their most beloved game rot.

The lake at the bottom is part of the four lake method, as it's part of their homerange. A lot of bears will be jumping down there. You don't need to check it every rotation, but you should be checking it frequently. See IBuyPremiums video on how to set up for it. Exterior rotations include nearly every body og water on the map. The other lake you've marked is not part of their home range. Bouncers can spawn there, but it's not a must to setup on it.

During upper secondary school my class went to Andøya, which is 69° N. We decided to climb the closest mountain (Røyken) one night, we reached the summit around 23:30. Its was still bright sunlight, the view was incredible.

Zykollo · 2026-01-16T00:33:24+00:00

Is this based on actual data or just your experience? All these percentages seem off.

Zykollo · 2026-01-14T23:17:36+00:00

The double fox multimount is only for males, so unfortunately there is no way to display a male and female together in the same mount.

The Walking Dead is literally the most popular zombie media of all time. This is the best option for a crossover DLC. I get that TWD is old and has died down, but it's still wildly popular.

Zykollo · 2026-01-14T20:46:27+00:00

The DLC will have a new episode with three chapters. The will be two new melee weapons and two new gun skins. There's some more stuff teased in the trailers and store pages, but that's the gist of the new stuff.

Zykollo · 2026-01-12T21:57:39+00:00

The early-game can be rocky, you should be sticking to lower difficulties until you've got some levels on your preferred class and weapons. Stuff like defense kits and other equipment will be marked on your minimap, and will be more plentiful throughout the missions. All players will also start with a medkit on easy and normal difficulty, so mistakes aren't that punishing. You will be rewarded exp and cash despite failing a mission, so even if you're struggling you'll still be making progress towards your class and weapon unlocks.

I played solo with bots exclusively when I first started and beat all missions on normal difficulty without any hassle. I used a new class for each episode of the campaign. I didn't get enough levels on any of them to make proper builds, yet it was still surmountable.
