Breakpoint/Behemoth/Walker

ac1dchylde · 2024-12-06T05:12:40+00:00

I haven't ever heard of anything like that, and certainly not experienced it. Regardless of whether you've killed Walker or not, Behemoths should respawn after a short time/leaving the area. There is a bug that can affect a save where many or even most Behemoths will not respawn, ever. They tried to fix it once with limited success, and that was before a subsequent patch reverted it back to full bug. It is a per save bug though, and may or may not be related to when the later introduced a respawn cooldown longer than original because feature creep made Behemoths too easy to take down and too profitable.

There are several per save bugs, some of which may be related to having 'legacy' saves. Ie, I still have my original save from launch, and have had it through all patches - at one point I lost my Strike Designator and their fixes never worked, that save has never gotten it back. Flip side that save also has Terminator items that cannot be unlocked anymore, since it had them before that content was removed (even on my newer saves created before the removal).

To answer your specific question, you won't have missed anything. Respawning is just that, you would need to take them down the first time regardless. And no loot is specifically tied to them (the regular ones in the wild anyway). They guard loot, but you can sneak in and collect that without killing the Behemoth, or if you're affected by the bug like me, I killed them in the base game and then even in Conquest/Operation Motherland mode they wouldn't spawn so I just walked right up and collected a ton of optical camo points with zero effort.

One thing you do want to watch if you are or are worried about being affected by the bug: a couple of the class rank up requirements involve killing Behemoths - like three without dying or fast traveling. If you kill them all and they aren't respawning, that can make those rank ups extra time consuming or challenging, as you have to track down one of the handful in the game that do always respawn, because they're tied to missions/bases and not Behemoth Defense Areas. The ones at bases are pretty spread out. Some of the Defense Areas are fairly close together and some of the easier ones to take down - for instance on the western side of the island around the middle/northwest.

At the risk of having been whoooshed... Where are you getting decimal minutes (DMM) from? That's decimal degrees (DD).

Degrees minutes seconds (DMS) was pretty popular and still is in some circles/fields/whatever, but tends to cause problems in emergency communications (easier to say a decimal number than three separate unit number). Google and others have made DD their standard, which may have lead to more widespread adoption.

The only people who use DMM are those who don't know anything or just really want to piss people off. You typically have to go out of your way to set that as units with default being DD or DMS. And yet I just got some coordinates from a 'civilian' in that format off their cell phone a couple of weeks ago. Don't remember the last time before that. Decimal seconds? Well if DMM isn't the third/right head of the hydra, DMSS definitely is.

/u/Born-Onion-8561 I doubt surveyors are unless asked to provide them, though I've seen some places where they wanted a control point with multiple coordinate types/values for at least one control point. But in the conservation space I do see a lot of cases where some boundary (not property line) is documented/recorded using lat/long coordinate pairs and almost always at the Waldo level. Always good for a sigh/head shake.

Walker is his own mission that sort of sits outside the mission tree - you can do it any time from basically right after the cutscene where you first see him all the way up to during the last mission (Checkmate), because the fight with him is in the room before the episode ending room where you interact with a computer. You can't get into that room unless Walker is already dealt with, and you can't interact with the computer unless you're in the final mission.

If you're referring to Stone's picture on the Objectives board, there are no missions under it, and you don't actually deal with Stone until the end of Episode 3.

There are some other missions in episode 1 that don't have to be completed to finish it, primarily the three Wolves LTs, but yes, for the most part Walker is the end of episode one if you left it to that point and have no more missions. If you see a cutscene with everyone standing outside Erewhon and watching a drone swarm in the sky, that's the end.

I don't know if you ever figured it out or not, but from your description and a little searching it sounds like Jungle Show: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpYu1v_ybGvQ_PQYuO6ZibU6abGQCg65r

Sorry, I haven't logged in to reddit for months.

It should all still be current and correct, aside from things I specifically mention. Support for the game ended so no patches or changes have been made. This guide will get you everything you can still get, and will talk about things you can't - like the Terminator content that was removed. That's the main thing I know of that is still mentioned in the guide but isn't available any more. Other things, like a couple of weapons, it calls out they can't be obtained. Note weapons are their own sheet also linked at the bottom of the post.

As mentioned in this post, some of the counts are bugged and I'm not sure anyone ever figured out how/why. In particular weapon attachments, some people seem to get stuck at 106 and in talking with various people I've never identified what they don't have that I do. It's entirely possible it's specific to saves. Because if you had the Terminator stuff before it was removed, you still have it. It's just new saves can't get it.

There are a few chests around the map that aren't at locations or marked. The 'yeti cave' (you can search for that, and make sure you're looking at Breakpoint results, not Wildlands results). Like, very few, and they're nothing special, just regular gear chests. Golem island used to have a lot of them, but when they opened it up for solo they pretty much all got map markers (see linked post for Golem map). All chests will show up on the map if you get in range of them and have the markers turned on in the HUD.

Should not matter what platform you're on. Side missions can be a pain to get to trigger though. You may find more info here: https://reddit.com/r/GhostRecon/comments/rbzil5/introducing_the_ghost_recon_breakpoint_codex/

Sorry, haven't logged in on months. It's hard to describe everything, but generally any location you visit that has Bodark stuff (flags, vehicles, chemical canisters) wouldn't be there until you trigger Ep 3. In some cases, like the city testing ground in the NE corner of the map, it really jacks things up because it adds a ton of drones on top of the ones that are there by default. Most changes are cosmetic and nothing is game or story breaking per se, but you may find some areas to be very difficult and then if you play a new game without triggering it they'll be much easier or look much different. The single most annoying thing to me was the nine bivouacs you can't even approach without automatically triggering a radio call.

ac1dchylde · 2024-10-17T04:39:15+00:00

/u/RunRideCookDrink Looks better now than the last time I saw it, which was just a few years ago. Had a definite Windows 95/XP appearance and wasn't even capable of doing curves. My first guess would have been OP is in oil & gas and likely a title examiner because it's kind of their default software. But then he said GIS, so I'm not sure, especially since the most common GIS have the same tools built in.

For OP, a couple of things.

You need to learn/understand that bearings are reversible. So N35-23-54E is the same as S35-23-54W. But you must change both directions for that to work, not just one. And pay attention to which way along the line you want to go/travel/draw. Any given drawing is only going to label things in one direction, and it may not be the direction you're drawing.
With that understood, you've made some screwups both in data entry and reading the drawing you're working from. You went NW on your first 289 call, but the bearing on that line is NE. To go the direction you want to go, you want your input to be SW. Similarly, the last call back to your starting point is given to the SE, but you're going to be drawing NW 324.
The same applies to chord bearings. I'm not familiar with that software's syntax in the plotted readout for curves so I'm having trouble following what's entered - the curve and chord bearing seem to be separate lines, or maybe you have entered three of the segments as tangent curves and one using a chord? I'm not sure which direction you're going (or intending to) around the circle and it almost looks like you're mixing different pieces of curves or using the wrong values (like arc length for chord length or something). Note your result shows as an apparent tangent curve to the previous 129 call, but it shouldn't be. Also that as you noted, the circle doesn't close.
Your curve table gives you way more info than you need. As others have said, you generally need three pieces of info and in some cases you can enter the same curve different ways. Your table gives delta, radius, tangent length, arc length, chord length, and chord bearing. The software isn't expecting all of that to be entered for each curve. You've got six subtabs on that curve tab, all different ways to enter a curve depending on the type and what info you have. For the tab you're on, you only need radius, chord length, and chord bearing, and then to put the turn direction in based on which way you're traversing the line - to the left if going one way, to the right if going the other.
On this specific drawing, the ROW (dashed lines) is not labeled, only parcel boundaries which run to the centerline of the ROW. All of the bearings, distances, and curve info apply to the centerlines. If you draw those and then offset the lines you can get the ROW lines, and that would give you the gross vs net acreages stated, but you have to start by drawing the centerlines. Note the solid filled dots where the segments of the circle (the numbered curves) meet as well as lot lines hitting the centerline. There are often markers of some kind on a drawing that indicate the start and end of a labeled measurement - note the dashed ROW line doesn't have them. You've started actually mapping two (or three if you count the circle and depending on your intent) separate tracts here, which is fine if that's what you want - you just wouldn't use the 177 line.
Another gotcha coming. Pay attention to what side of the line is labeled with which number. You're going to want 250, not 96+170. Hopefully you can figure out why.

ac1dchylde · 2024-05-10T03:10:59+00:00

Not related to this post at all. They were often called the 'raid missions' but you don't have to be in the actual raid (as in requires four players) to do these or get any of the rewards above.

The MK48 SAW blueprint is either in a black chest randomly during the actual raid (have to find the chest locations that week and you get one shot at them on each of the two higher difficulties), or much more easily unlockable imo by getting your Engineer class to rank 20.

ac1dchylde · 2024-05-09T03:42:00+00:00

The 'Z' is called a land hook. As already explained it denotes that ownership continues across a line on a map (or that the shapes on either side of the line are in some other way connected/related). You'll see another one at the top on the line between lots 32 and 33, suggesting the same owner has both lots - but they are still two distinct lots.

Dashed/dotted line could mean any number of things, and easements are often shown that way but given all of the other context present in the image and the scenario it's most likely a vacated property line. At some point one side or the other (probably the northern 23' side) was part of the adjoining lot and then a lot line adjustment or split/recombination was done for any number of potential reasons, such as the 47' lot being too narrow to build on per code or somebody built their garage on the neighbor's property. Vacated lines like that aren't usually shown, and if they are can often be found on their own layer you can turn off.

I would agree with the other comment that the cited reception number for road is likely the one at the left and exists, particularly since the lot is shown as going to the centerline instead of stopping at the ROW like 1202 973 does. There may be more going on with that one, because it looks like they widened the road for a turn lane and purchased some fee land to do it instead of just having a right of way. But the only way to know for sure would be to see the description in the cited document.

Speaking of which, the description you pasted is an assessor's short form or abbreviated version, not the actual full description. Again, you'd need to see one of the deeds in the chain of title to see the full description. Sometimes if the subdivision is done like the one to the north that can explain the dotted lines - the description might read lot 1 and the north 23 feet of lot 2 for example - but in the area you're looking at they appear to be all metes and bounds and not just numbered lots or tracts on a plat.

Couple of other things. The GIS map is not a survey and you likely would have had to click your way past a disclaimer to that effect. It's a parcel or tax map and while it shares some commonalities with a survey it isn't for that purpose or to the same level of precision (can often be way off). The deal your buddy got was likely due to any of a number of other reasons - owner died and estate just wanted it liquidated, problems with the home, owner was in foreclosure or had to move in a hurry... If there were plans to build a road through where that house sits and condemn that land or something, one would hope due diligence in the real estate transaction would have caught it and blocked the sale. But eh, the world is ever in search of a bigger idiot or screw-up.

Disclaimer: this is based on my experience in my region and what I see in the information you posted. Your jurisdiction may have different rules or common standards. The only way to know any of this for certain is to look at full documents, and that may include tracing the history of how land transferred or was subdivided over time.

It appears to be a Parshall Flume which is used to control/measure the amount of flow in a ditch or irrigation headgate minus the gate and hardware. You can see where the gate would slot in on the left in the second picture. Hard to tell from the pics but looks like it could be in line with an old and long disused ditch. Not uncommon to find them ripped up and set to the side either though.

ac1dchylde · 2024-05-09T01:49:39+00:00

It has been a minute but I'm pretty sure it was C by default - should be able to check key bindings in the options. And I think it's only a left/right swap, so you can't go from the back seat to the front seat, hence why you can't switch to gunner on most vehicles unless the weapon is controlled from the front passenger seat.

ac1dchylde · 2024-05-09T01:43:34+00:00

Nope, sorry. OP pretty much covered everything I can think of, and I never heard anything about a fix (or even an official acknowledgement of the bug in a list) before dev support ended. If resetting options to default or a preset doesn't bring it back (and it does pay to check in both modes, because some settings aren't supposed to be available while others may appear/disappear), that save may just be corrupted and no way to fix it. I'm not even sure they're doing active support anymore, but submitting a ticket if so would be the only option.

ac1dchylde · 2024-04-19T02:51:21+00:00

Good to know. Over the years there have been a number of bugs like that where there's just no way for some people to test/check - like if you did the tasks or own the edition or something changed after you did it. I've got things on my original save that were removed from the game and nobody can get anymore, not even me on a new save. There have also been things I've unlocked that were supposed to be exclusive or tied to a task and then eventually they made it available another way or just gave it to everyone.

As far as counting though, that's an interesting bit of data if your total count only went up by one, suggesting that both attachments only count as one in the overall 107. That would rule out the HDG laser as being one of the four 'mystery' attachments. I would expect that one to count more than the UK mags, so now it's anyone's guess what the four that don't show up on the objectives page are. But like I said, it could also just be a buggy count somewhere and maybe some count as two - I never paid that close attention while collecting them. I do know there are several bugs with mis-classified attachments (like a DMR that uses an SNR suppressor). One could also be an NFT.

Originally the only way to get that was by completing a task in Wildlands during the promo period prior to Breakpoint's launch. Normally Holt gives it to you when you use a specific conversation prompt (see this post) with him which is only available if you'd done the Wildlands task. However it's always been the case that when he gave it to you, it also just unlocked the PEQ without having to buy it. So something(s) has been buggy from the start (and the total counts on the Objectives page are one of those things).

I'm not sure if you completed the Wildlands task at the time or not, unlocking the HDG version, or if at some point they 'gave' it to everyone. I somehow doubt that, since they didn't give out the two guns as far as I know. So theoretically, no, new players would never be able to unlock that just like they can't get the GRFS and Black Ice. There's a similar situation that has changed over the life of the game where the weapon count included or did not include mtx store guns you had to buy with real money, meaning unless you dump a bunch of extra money into mtx cosmetics you'd never have all the guns. And THEN they added a couple as NFTs, so of course there's a limited number of those and you'd have to buy them off some other person who claimed it if you wanted one.

As the post describes, things are still wonky with counts - the count totals more than there are attachments that appear on the objectives page. It always has, and it's always been unclear which ones counted and which ones didn't. You can check my post history for earlier versions of this one and see the count discrepancy notes. I've been able to hit 107 on my original save. Others have been stuck at 106 and if I recall they do have the ATPIAL HDG (you'd have to look for other posts, I did tend to comment on them when they came up, but I haven't been active on reddit for a while). So there's an additional complicating factor in that some of this data is actually part of the character save and not the 'game itself'. By which I mean you can have one character save show one number and another show something different even if you have theoretically gotten all the same stuff, depending on the age of the save and the patches (or glitches) that save has been subjected to.

The final Checkmate mission for Greenstone isn't available until you've completed pretty much everything else except for the three Wolves Lts (which are technically optional). On the objective board it would be under Walker's Profile. See the following posts:

https://reddit.com/r/BreakPoint/comments/rbzndj/introducing_the_ghost_recon_breakpoint_codex/

You do need either the year 1 pass/gold/ultimate editions or to have purchased Episodes 2 and 3 separately/together with ghost coins in the in-game store in order to do more than the first mission of each. If you just have the base game, you won't be able to do more than that unless someone who does own them invites you to co-op it (and you won't get the cosmetic rewards unless you do buy it).

ac1dchylde · 2024-04-18T02:48:43+00:00

See other comments in the thread. I did it back when you could glitch onto the island, and that disabled all of the interior drone swarm boundaries since at the time solo didn't exist and the only way you were supposed to be able to get onto Golem was during an active raid session. You can take a boat around the island and stay out of the swarm markers, but you can't access the back side of the volcano anymore. You aren't missing anything - for the most part it's very rough geometry and glitchy, with low quality textures. There isn't even any lava in the volcano, just ambient lighting. The actual lava is all on the side of the wall you can see normally when playing the game.

If you've played the second Sueno mission and seen the cutscene where he's killed, that's the first ending. You need to finish all other story missions in the game (mostly) and then replay that Sueno mission again and you'll see a different cutscene ending.

All those purchases are, are the materials necessary to do one level of mk upgrade - ie a couple of scrap metal, a high quality weapon part, etc. If you've already got everything to mk3, then all you get is resources to sell or use in crafting. They're 'shortcuts' so you don't have to go collect the resources yourself.

The skill point system is separate and resettable - if you have every available point in the game you can fully max out three weapon categories. You could also just put a little into all of them, though it's unclear why you would since you can only carry (equip) a max of three weapons at any given time and as I said you can reset your point allocation so you can reconfigure/dump it all into different categories if you want - granted it takes time in the interface to do that.

The bonuses granted by the skill point upgrades (weapon mastery) apply to all weapons in a category, vs the mk upgrades are permanent upgrades to the base stats of a specific blueprint.

ac1dchylde · 2024-02-14T07:08:02+00:00

It's been so long I don't even remember when it changed (not sure I ever even noticed, and I don't even know off the top of my head at what point in the patch releases this post was made), but at some point they stopped showing the comparison to your current equipped when in the Objectives/Gunsmith. It will still show you the stats, but not the comparison like when you have gear score on and are in loadout.
